Feminine Eancies.

Hay color is now fashionable.
The latest notion in kid gloves is half
fingers
The first dresses for fall are made up
with pipings and trimmings.
Beautiful costumes, and very servicea.
bic ones, are now made of the al5atross
and cygnet materials.
Picturesque hats for garden parties are
OF white muslin, made tongue shape and
trimmed with India ribbons.
Hankerchiefs now come with borders to
match the summer suits and the sets OF
lingerie, either of cashmere or delicate
| blues or pinks.
The revival of brunettes has brought
amber into fashion again. 1t is both cx.
quisItely clear and clouded, in necklaces,
beads, crosses and combs.
The latest thing provided for trim
ming the edges Of collars aud cuffs is an
embroidery in Pompadour colurs, mixed
pink and blue. In linen collars the
newest importations are those with
square piece turned over in the back
while the front has standing English
points.
The fronts of the nigh.necked corsages
of evening dresses are now fastened with
roses instead of buttons. in the same
way tufts Of marabout or ostrich feathers
are used.
Creole caps manufactured from gray
striped foulard silks are now worn by
young married ladies with morning toilets.
These caps are tastily trimmed with lace,
and are frequently further adorned with
a small cluster of flowers.
The newest comb is called the croi-
settle. In shape it is like fan, and is
worn tritle to one side. 1t is only at
its best when the hair is loosely confined
in an invisible set.
The fashion of waist bands is again
upon us in full force, and there is man.
utactured variety of buckles that is
appalling. There are blue steel, polish
ed steel, marcassite, enamel, torquoise,
and garnet buckles, but the most popular
buckles are composed of monograms of
the wearer. made either of silver or gold
or partly of silver and partly Of gold.
/ Our dress reformer warmly advocates
the mitten; indeed she declares that even
in winter the hands should never even
be confined in muf, and yet the mitten
is one of the last things that she can
succeed in making popular. 1t has al
ways been too thoroughly associated with
uncouth childhood and biting weather to
meet with any affection from our society
belle, and the more especially as a beau
tiful hand is one Of her most pronounced
weaknesses. Warm, the mitten may be,
but it certainly is not conducive to the
advantageous display Of tapering fingers,
Even the recent attempt which has been
made te revive the lace nit may be pro
noGnced failure. 1t did not flourish in
the warmest weather, and now it is al
most utterly discarded.

From Cassell's New Popular Education.I

From Cassell's New Popular Educatjon.l
The discovery of the medical proper
ties of cinchona bark is enveloped in
great obscurity. All that we know
about 1t for certain is this: Before the
year l63S-that is to say, $50 years sub
sequent to the discovery of America
not even the Spaniards were acquainted
with the febrifuge qualities of cinchona
bark; but in this year, or thereabouts,
the countess del Chinchon, the wife of
the Spanish viceory Of Peru, was cured
of violent intermittent fever by drink
ing an infusion of the bark, and this led
to its introduction into Europe. Were
the natives themselves acquainted with it?
Humbolt answers this question very pos
itively in the negative, and refers the
discovery to the Jesuit missionaries, who,
being in the habit of tasting the bark Of
every tree they hewed down, at length
discovered the precious febrifuge.
Other authors Of repute contend that the
virtues Of chincona bark were known to
the Indians long before the advent Of the
Spaniards; but the question again arises
how they first became acquainted with
its properties. TO account tor this the RI
dicuous tale has been invented that GER
tain animals, while laboring under fever,
happened to gnaw the bark Of one Of the
cinchona trees, and were cured forth
with. Far more probable is it that some
cinchona trees having been laid PROSTATE
by the tempests in a pool Of water, and
the latter becoming charged with the
medicinal principle, some person labor
ing under fever drank Of THIS water, was
cured, and published the result. But
however this may be, it is certain that
the remedy first became popularlzed IN
Europe through the agency Of count del
Chinchon, viceory Of Peru, whose wife,
as we have said, was cured of intcrmlt
tent fever by its administration. The
new remedy, however, was badly receIv-
ed in France and Italy. The faculty set
their faces against it. Physicians who
dared prescribe its use were prosecuted,
and it was only the patronage of Lewis
XIV. which ultimately rendered 1t pop
ular in France. This monarch, suffer
ing from intermittent fever, was cured by
an English empiric named Talbot, by
means of a secret remedy. This was no
other than cinchona bark. Louis XIV. |
purchased the secret for the sum Of 49, |
600 livres, and bestowed yearly pension |
of :, ZOO livres on the Englishman, be- |
sides giving him letters of nobility
Three years subsequently the remedy
was published. 1t was highly concen-
trated vinous tincture of cinchona bark. |
Cinchona trees grow in the densest for
est of Peru. The task of discovering /
them, removing their bark and convey
ing the latter to the place of export, is
troublesome, difficult and dangerous.
In the forests there are no roads. |
Frightful precipices intersect the path of
the cascarillero. or bark gatherer, across
which it is difficult to pass, even while |
unembarrased by a load. So soon as
the treasure of bark has been secured
these difficulties and dangers proportion
ately increase, so that the comparatively /
low price at which oiDchOna may be pro- |
cured is in itself matter of surprise.

Romance ina Real Life.

The story of Evangeline is repeated
with wonderful fidelity in all It's details
in the experience of young French girl,
a resident Of Marseilles. She was en-
gagged to a sailor to whom she was to be
married on his return from a voyage to
New York. He did not return, and
after year she got berth as steward
ness assistant on one of the Havre steam
ers, to come here in search of him. On
the passage rich American lady became
interested in her story and resolved to
help her to find out her lover In New
York she learned that he had gone to Can
ada. For months she travelled about the
Dominion, sometimes close on his track
and again losing every clue as to his
whereabouts. She returned tc New York
and one day while standing at Broad
way crossing waiting her turn to get
across she saw the object of long search
on the other side. She shrieked his name
and ran into the middle of the street,
but policeman caught her and saved
her from the wheels of the string of We
hicles. CANCEL of God there was none,"
and she never again saw the Gabriel she
had long sought and 50 nearly found.
She learned then that he had sailed for
San Francisco, and so went overland to
| California to meet him. Arrived on the
Pacific coast, she found that her lover
had fallen overheard just outside the
Heads and been drowned Meanwhile
the body Of young man dressed in sail
or's clothes was cast ashore on the beach,
carried to the Coroner's office, and not
being identified, was inferred in the pub
lie cemetery. A water-sodden pocket
book was taken from the. dead man,
which contained only few letters writ
ten in French and unaddressed. The
girl hearing of this went to the Coroners
office and found that the letters were
hers. The waves had tardily and par

and she was able to find the grave of her
! lover.
