Wreaths of Roses

Are the new head-dress of the haut-toa danes
and demoiselles in the court saloons of Europe.
The flowers, however, are not, always, merely
the exquisite products of the garden, but are OF
the rarest workmanship in gold and jewels The
roses are made to bud and bloom by mechanism
while on the head of the wearer, to dispense
delicious perfumes and utter faint sweet music.
Some ingenious trinket makers have carried their
achievements still farther. One of them makes
brooches with the most curious designs and fig
ures which are kept i'll motion by tiny galvanic
batteries carried by the wearer. These batteries
are constructed Of very small strips Of zinc or
platinum, or Of zinc and carbon moistened with
an acid solution of the sulphate of mercury. The
little boxes, containing these, is so placed that
the acid reaches the metal whenever the wearer
wishes to produce the peculiar effect. Some of
these brooches represent Dancing Derv:sh
others Santon with lolling tongue; others
again rabbit beating drum with two little
sticks; a grenadier presenting arms; skeleton
with deaths head and fiery rolling eyes
bird moving its tail and wings; monkey play
ing the fiddle. Indeed there is no end to the
sagaries, chaste and unchaste, thus furnished
or the use of morbid vanity
