Hints in Case of Fire.

Be well acqu 4inted with the best
means of escape from your house, both
at the top and the bottom. Do not get
confused. Admit no one to your house
except fremen, policemen or peighbors.
If a lady's or child's dress catches fire,
endeav0r to roll the person in a rag
carpet or any piece of woolen stuff.
Keep all the doors and windows closed
until the fremen arrive. II you cannot
make your way from building by
stairway, endeavor to get into a front
room, and keep all doors shut behind
you, for smoke will follow a draft, and
flames the smoke. If smoke enters the
room and it is difficult to stand erect,
get your mouth as close to the floor as
possible, and breathe easy, as there is
always a fresh current of air near the
floor A wet cloth over the mouth will
greatly aid breathing. In letting out
smoke from room, always open the
upper portion of a window. In case of
fire in a theater or any crowded place,
keep perfectly calm, and do all you can
to prevent panic, as there generally is
plenty of time to escape if there is no
panic. Do not go into building where
there is a thick smoke without satu-
rated sponge IN your mouth, or a wet
cloth or handkerchief over mouth and
nose. In ascending or descending a
ladder, do so with a regular step, to
prevent vibration.

The Power of viii.

Remarkable instances of The power of
will to overcome what most persons
would succumb to, are not wanting in
history and biography. When Queen
Elizabeth was seized with illness
which terminated in her death, she
refused fol three days to give way
so far as to permit her attend
ants to carry her to bed. Her naughty,
queenly spirit fought death himself
with an obstinate resistance. Those of
our readers who have seen a representa-
tion of Lord Lytton's play of Richelieu,
will remember what admirable use he
makes of the delicacy OF body from
which the eminent statesmen suffered
constantly. John Wesley, who prob
ably performed more work than any of
his contemporaries, when a young man
had diseased lungs and hemorrhage,
and but for his good sense and pluck
would have died early instead of living
TO organize church which has attained
an enormous membership and great
wealth and power. During the last
year his life this eminent man was
the victim of a distressing complaint
which he hardly ever permitted TO inter-
fere with his incessant toll, and with
whose existence but very few persons
were acquainted. NJ. Theirs is miserable
specimen of humanity only abont four
feet high, shaped somewhat like a tad
pole, and sustained in life by the most
vigilant attention on the part of his
devoted wife and another lady IN his
household; ; yet when president of the
French republic, so very recently, the
brave old gentleman was accustomed to
be- at his desk by five in the morning
performing the detail necessary in tbe
dis charge of function which he had
assumed when his country was PROSTATE
at the feet of Gelmany. Conspicuous
examples of the triumph of will over
suffering and consequent depression of
mind could be multiplied but these are
sufficient

JOAQUIN MILLER joaquin Miller has
provoked many sharp criticisms on mrs
poetry, but none on hrs public connuct
under the most trying of domestic aliilo-
tions. BE has persisteutly refused to
say anything, in self defense or other
wise. Concerning the attacks made upon
him by his former wife aud by many
western newspapers. Almost the only
public allusiou he has ever made 30
these attacks is in the preface b his
new book, where he says ] have been

love. / have remembered her great
men. j have done my work 20 show u
the world her vnstuess, her riches, her
resources, her yRlor aud her dignity

while was going on, working 10 in
silence, what were the things she said
of me? But let thGt pass, my dear
parents. Others will come after us.

men a quarter Of a century ago.

FASHION JOCTINGS.

Polonaises are not entirely ont O
fashion
Many of the basques are worn will
fancy belts.
Jet trimmings is much used in grena
dine dresses.
White tissue walls are among the lat.
est novelties.
The hair is to be worn high on the
head again.
Lace beaded sacques are more worn
this season than last.
White organdie lawn makes a cool
| and becoming neCkjie.
| Plated bRsques of all thin materials
| will be very much worn.
Many of the overskirts are made With
| the deep apron and sash back.
The Mechlin lace is much used on
white French muslin party dresses.
Sleeveless lace sacquesi deep in front
aud short in the back, are graceful
wrap.
Collars are made on all summer dress.
es. either plated or with plain round
collars.
Nothing is cooler and sweeter for
morning wear than those embroidered
hatiste suits price Sl5.
The proper lingerie for travelling are
sets of quaint striped and plaid Cheviots
and Oxford linens.
All thin dresses have lining to the
waist, but the sleeves of evening dresses
should not be lined.
New black walls of thread.net are Dor.
dered with a small vine, and dotted
with the tiniest buttons.
Black velvet dog collars, studded
with jet, blue steel and gilt ornaments,
are much used on long, slender necks,
The novelty of iewelry consists of ex'
quisite cameo sets cut in conch shells,
and very delicately mounted.
Ties OF Swiss muslin with medalliOns
cf embroidery set in, and ties Of ecru
batiste, are each obtaining favor.
E,ru batiste neckties, wrought IN open
English design on each end. are ex-
tremely stylish, and are mostly used on
black toilets.
The newest trimming introduced for
black silks is a Detted fringe, with a
very deep heading, and without bends.
Sleeveless beaded cashmere sacques
are still seen on the street, and will con-
time fashionable during the cool days. |
White tulle walls, dotted with white |
pearl beads are fashionable for dressy |
carriage toilets, but in bad taste for the |
street.
Many of the percale suits are made
with loose box plated sacque, with |
black velvet bows put down the middle
back plat.
For a travelling suit, brown or gray
debage is the most suitable Make |
with plated waist and trim the skirt
with knife plaitings.
New linen lawn handkerahieis have
the hem scolIoped with Turkey red,
navy blue or sky blue, to suit the era
watts with which they are wIrn.
Sleeves are made almost tight TO the
arm, and many are only trimmed at the
hand with two small knife plaitings,
finished with band and bow.
The Haddeo or Greek sleeve has ap-
peared. 1t is very long, and cut square
at thu bottom. The inside is left par
tally open to allow the arm TO pass.
The new Byron collars, with double
square cuffs, en- suite, are made OF
white sheer linen, edged with Turkey
red, bluer or black. The thin tie is
worn inside close about the throat.
Puffed o7erskirts of grenadiue aud
other soft material make very SNOWY
appearance, and are much worn by thin
aides, TO whom they are very becoming
n giving style 20 the figure.

Reasons for La Mode.

Trace fashion to it's origin and yOu
will nearly always find that it springs
from the consciousness of a defect and
a wish to mask it. The fatherland of
crinoline is Spain, and Spanish queen
first wore hoops to dissimulate unequal
hips. A Venus of the Boulevards, who
committed suicide by throwing herself
over a balcony few years sgo, revived
the high-heeled shoes, which Louis
Quortorze originally brought into fash
ion to appear taller than the king of
Spain at the meeting in the Isle of
Pheasants. A lady who derives pres
tige from rank, fortune and striking
beauty scalded her arm three winters
back. An ugly mark bore witness to
the accident. She thought of wearing,
to conceal it, those long armed gloves
which, out of mercy to the plebeiau
wives of Napoleon's s marshals and gener-
ais, the Empress Josephine adopted.
The bats slantlng down over the eye
brows were the result of lady of ex-
alted rank losing her front hair. Queen
Elizabeth's neck was yellow and thin,
hence the "stiff muslin mane." The
double veil of white and black tulle was
contrived by parliamentary woman"
with bad complexion. She used pearl
powder to hide her red skin, and the
white and black veil to dissimulate the
pearl powder which would have shown
on black net.

A FLORIDA DAWN.
By WILL WALLACE HARVEY.

The moon is low in the sky,
And a sweet south wind is blowing
Where the bargamot blossoms breathe ard di
In the orchards scented showing:
But the stars ara few, and scattered lie
Where the sinking moon is going.
With a love-sweet ache strain
OF the nights delicious fluting
Stirs ia the heart, With as sweet pain
As the flower feels in fruiting.
And the soft air breathes breath of rain
Over buds and tendrils shooting.
For the sweet night faints and dies,
Like the blush when love conf s.es
It's passion dusk to the cheeks and eyes
And dies in its sweet distresses,
And the radiant mystery fills the skies
Of possible happiuesses,
Til the sun breaks ont on slPaves
And mouths Of mink perfume,
Where the milky tergamot slakes IFS caves;
and the rainbow's ribbon bloom,
Of the soft gray mist of the morning. weaves
rose in the roses bloom.
TIE fog, like a great white cloth,
Drawn out Ofthe orchard and corn,
And melts away in 4 finn Of froth
Like the milk spray on the thorn;
And out of her chambers blush and 10th.
Like bride comes the giriish morn.

Dear mothers, as I say farewell to
you, would lift my heart in prayer to
the Father above, asking Him to give
you, each and all, wisdom and strength
so to bring up those boys OF yours that
a noble manhood may be theirs hap
py heart yours, and mansion of rest
for you all in the pure city of God.
And if my story will help some
mother to be more patient and tender
with her boy will thank God that He
has permitted few threads of gold to
