PRAIRIE MIRAGE.
Some of the Beautiful Sights TO BIC
seen ON Our Plains.

ssEH UT NNF F1AlHSe
IN. Y. MALL
The mirages Of the plains are Of wondrOus
beauty. In the autumn when all the atmos-
Dheric conditions are perfect, strange trans
formations take place upon the prairie. 1t is
the morning of such q day. Along the east
ern horizon a narrow belt Of light appears.
AS it grows broader the silyer-gray Of its low
the belt take on yellow red The grayish
shadows of dawn Lift slowly from the earth
and imperceptibly float skyward. just be-
fore the red disk Of the sun peers above the
horizon line weird islands appear in the sky,
islands clothed with trees and wavy grasses,
and held together by, threads Of yellow, green
and azure. The earth stands inverted in the
sky. The wooded bluffs and timber-lands of
the prairie turn bottom upward in the
glacous ether above with their feet knee-deep
q grayi5h, semi-opaque mist, but the smallest
object is lmned against it with marvellous
fidelity. Objects far beyond the vision over
the prairie are brought into plain view by this
plains standing in the sky, every feature
traced with the minuteness Of q line engrav-
ing. / could distinguish the dogs wandering
about the yard, and the opening and closing
of door in the cabins ] have seen dog
sledges whose trains were out Of sight be-
low the horizon, trail through the sky in tor
tuOus course; long lines of cart trains sWaying
to and fro over the sand dunes Of the sky In
all these cases the ground does not appear,
only the objects growing upon or passing
over it. Everything has the appearance Of
growing or standing In water. The feet OF
animals, the roots Of trees, the foundations Of
houses, ale ali lost in an aqueous mist.
The ordinary features Of this mirage-the
simple drawing Of distant objects near the
spectator-are Of common and in many
places, Of every day occurrence at some sea-
son of the year. a few rods away on every
side a slight line of grayish mist, exactly re-
sembling that rising from lake or stream in
early morning, appears, and upon its surface
is limned the whole landscape, changing con-
stantly, like the colors Of a kaleidoscope as
the traveller advances. The Illusion continues

But the latest and most extravagant idea
in diamond setting is diamond lace. Along
side of this, cloth Of gold seems cheap indeed.
The mesh or webds made Of fine silver wire
as delicate as the threads Of the finest Point
de Angleterre, and the pattern Of flowers,
foliage or other devices are worked upon the
surface and formed wholly of artstically set
diamonds, just as the patterns appear in
point lace. This diamond lace is used for
trimming the corsage. sleeves and other parts
of elaborate toilets, but as the cost Of the
cheapest that can be bought Is $4,000 q yard
it is not likely to become common. Collar
