Fan Filtration.

When lady uses her fan in an out
ward movement-that is, away from her
into space-it means that she is mar
ried and you must not hope. The con-
trary movement, inward, from space to
the body, means that she is free. If,
however, this inner movement is made
by tanning in a downward direction, it
means that she is widow if in an up
ward direction, that she has never been
married. A closed fan held upright,
means edo as you like" An open fan,
resting on the breast, means " silence. y
A closed fan, presented to you horizon
tally, means an invitation ;" present
ed by the small end, indifference. "
With one leaf open, friendship :" two
open leaves, sympathy )" three, Glove
and passion. A talking fan" should
be composed of seven leaves, to CORE
spond with the seven days in week.
The hour you are expected at the rem
devious is intimated by so many taps
being made on the leaf which represents
the day. A colored fan placed ON the
lips means "don't tell" A circular
movement of the fan means eve are
watched"

A State Dinner at Windsor Castle.

Stutt w OuStits
The state dinner at Windsor Castle in
honor of the Duke and Duchess of Ed
inbnrgh has probably never been equal
ed for display of gold plate. The
Bullets and tables were heaped and la
den with salvers, shields, cups and
vases of every description. One hun
bred and thirty-six persons dined, and
every piece of plate displayed or used
was of silver richly gilt. A service of
pure gold plate is unknown, and there
are only one or two pieces even at Wind
sor Castle entirely of the precious
metal. The most conspicuous piece ON
the buffet at the west end of the hall
was the Eau-de- Cologne fountain, de-
signed by the Prince Consort. Silver
steeds, models of horses given to the
Queen by the Sultan of Muscat and the
late King of Prussia, drank from a
golden fountain of Moorish design. On
this buffet stood a jeweled George ~
coronation cup, two beautiful cups in
gold and ivory, one of them an exquis-
itely carved Rape of the Sabines, sal
yer bearing the arms of Elizabeth OF
Bohemia, and many other salvers
plates, vases and cups. On the center
of the lowest shelf of the buffet at the
east end of the hall was placed the til
ger-head taken from Tippoo Sahib's
throne at the storming of Seringapatam.
Above it stood the jeweled peacock,
once an ornament in Tippoo's state UNI
brella, and above this priceless bird
was Flaxman's Shield of Achilles, and
many other precious and beautiful
pieces of plate.

the car, and having issued tickets to

THE influence of forests in drawing
m sisture from the heavens may be
judged from the experience of San
Diego, Cal. Previous to 1868 there was
yearly rainy season, which made the
soil nourishing and productive. In 1868
a destructive fire swept over the greater
part of the country, cutting down the
luxuriant chaparral and blackening the
hills. Since then there has been no
rainy season at San Diego.

Work for Women.

If women ask men for work they will get
what they nave always got-that kind men
do not want to do themselves. They will
get hard work, rough work, coarse work,
poorly paid work, all the cant about sex
Notwithstanding. But if they really want
to be independent, if they want their share
of the good things of life, if they want to
make q home for themselves, if they want
to help others, let them be neither afraid
nor ashamed, but begin with an honest
labor tor which they are paid and work up.
The difficulty with women is not that they
are idle, but that their habits are so desul-
tory and their work so objectless. If the
wretched little child's play which women
call "fancy work. could at once be blOtted
out of their existence it would be an meal
culable blessing. What would be thought
of a man or grown boy who could deliber-
ately sit down DAY after day and be con
tent to kill time by working ridiculous little
pen wipers, bead napkin rings and the like,
which no one dreams of ever using; he
would be considered, and rightly, as either
q fool or crazy. If women claim intellect
ual equality with men they must be content
to be Judged by the same standard. AS for
work, the majority have not begun to know
what it means. They have thought of it as
something with which they can while away
an u%noccupied hour or two, or they have
| thought of it as a degradation which the
| poor, for wise purposes, have to endure
| but which it is not proper for the delicate
| or refined to come in contact with.-Jennte

The Champion stallion Race.

Mr.. D. H. Blanchard is busily arranging
details for the great stallion race over the
Mystic Park. September Is, for which he
offers a purse of $4,000 and tour elegant
gold medals. Five of the sixteen stations
named for this trot were in the race at
Buffalo on Wednesday, where Smuggler
made the unprecedented time of 2:201a, but
succumbed to Thomas Jefferson, whose
lasting qualities made him the winner Of
three heats. When these five meet double
that number of equally fast t~rOtters, who
are to contest for the championship of the
United States and Blanchard's money, the
event will prove in reality 1.-THE great trot
of the century" This meeting of the fast
est stations in the world is exciting much
interest in all sections Of the country. A
large number of seats in the grand stand
have already been ordered by prominent
gentlemen OF New York and elsewhere, and
the several railroads centering here are
perfecting arrangements to bring in the
thousands residing on their lines who want
to be witnesses Of the trot. Extra trains
will run to the track, leaving the Lowell
railroad station, C%auseway street, every
few minutes, and it is safe to assume that
the largest crowd ever on the park will be
present.-TNrf, Field and Farm.
