To CURE COLD FEET.-People who write or
sew all.day, or rather those who take but little
exercise, may warm their cold feet without 60
ing to the fire. ALI that is necessary is to stand
erect and very gradually to lift ones self up
upon the tips OF the toes. SO as to put all the
tendOns Of the foot at full strain. This is not
to hop or to Jump up and down, but simply to
rise-the slower the better-upOn tiptoe. and to
remain standing on the point OF the toes as long
as possible. then gradually coming to the
natural position. Repeat this several times.
and, by the amount of work the tips of the toes
are made to do, in sustaining the bOdy's weight,
sufficient and lively circulation is set up.
Even the half-frozen car driver can carry this
plan out, 1t Is one rule of the 'Sweedish
movement" system; and. as motion warmth is
much better than flre-warming, persons who
suffer with cold feet at night can try this plan
just before retiring to PHILADELPHIA Ledqer.

| for example. small boy holds dish which con-
tains fish as large as himself.
FUR capes are fashionable this winter, and
sometimes they are large enough to reach below
the waist. Seal paletOts are more fashionable
| than long jackets, but really brocades sicili-
ennes Ottoman, plush and other fabrics, trim
| med with fur, are more popular than the entire
| garments OF fur
| The fronts of dresses are not only beaded In
fine jet but also In beads Of all coors and shades
and with these embroidered apron fronts Pom
padour corsages and trains are worn. Plain
velvet and broche velvet are very popular, as is
also English velveteens. Skirts OF the latter are
| worn with satin cOrsages.
| A WALKING SUIT recently brought to WASH
| ington was of blue brocade velvet and Ottoman
silk; the skirt of Ottoman cut in vandykes, with
| fan pleatings between. and puffed back drapery;
the waist, closely fitting jersey basque of OF

| for the skirt was worn long Louis XIV. jacket
| of velvet brocade.
HARPER's Bazaar says that mittens of heavy
silk knitted plainly on the hand. with shell pat
| terms on the cuffs or wrislets, are worn either
alone or over kid gloves by ladies during very
| cold weather. They are shown in quiet dark
| shades Of brown, terra Gotta, blue, gray. or
| black. and may be chosen with reference to the
| CLOAK worn with them.
MANY handsome walking dresses and after
noon costumes are Of embroidered cashmere,
combined with silk or velvet. A favorite mode
Of making these is with plain round skirt Of
velvet with single plating at the foot over
which falls an embroidered founce. The tunic
is draped in the English style; that is to say, in
tablier form and small draped puff at the back.
The basque is of cashmere, with velvet vest
framed in embroidery, which also forms border
around the basque.
SOME RECENT hats and bonnets have been
made in thin, light kid, plain, embossed, and
embroidered with gold thread. The latter de-

A Dress with 1,s00 Buttons.

New York Letter IN the Detroit Free Press.
1t almost seems incredible, and had not
ocular proof should not dare to state it, that q
single dress should have on it 1900 buttons OF
varying sizes. Ten days were consumed in ar
ranging and sewing on the buttons by seam
stress. On each sleeve there were 100 buttons;
on the body, basque and collar $50, and on the
skirt $50. Those on the skirt were arranged
In trfangles, squares, crosses, stars and other
curious shapes, on foundation of black satin.
The dress had satiny appearance and was very
lady of considerable strength to wear it. The
intention was to have 2,OOO buttons on 1t, but
the entire surface Of the dress would have to be
covered. The buttons were all black, some
round and others fiat, and many Of them quite
expensive.

REAL ESTATE TRANSFER.

AKRON, March 1.-"Black Dog" cut, on
the Valley Railway, two miles north
west of here, was the scene early Tues
day morning of a monster land slide,
which will delay trains for two days
at least, At this point the railway pass
es through a succession of towering
hills, and the cut in which the slide
occurred is the deepest on the road, the
sliding bank being nearly eighty feet
high.
The slide is one hundred feet long
and many feet in thickness. Another
of the same length, about ten feet thick
and probably seventy feet high, is inn
minent, as a great mass of earth of
these dimensions has already sunken
bodily six feet, forming a natural shelf
in the side of the steep bank.
From the cTevices issued scores of
snakes, many of them of great size.
Telegraph poles were buried IndeT the
falling earth, and communication inter
rupted. When the morning trains from
Cleveland and Canton arrived at the cut
passengers, baggage and mail were ex-
changed and the trains returned to
their starting places. The road will
probably be clear to-day.

CONKLING SOLID.

WASHINGTON, February 26-Owing to
the Garfield memorial exercises there
will not be an executive session of the
Senate tomorrow, but it is believed that
COnkling's friends will endeaVOr to con-
firm him Tuesday, as they do not want
delay. COnkling's friends are indignant
because he was not confirmed immedi-
ately, as is the custom with Senators or
eX-SenatOTs, and think there is purpose
on the part of his opponents to delay
confirmation, and thus make it appear
as if he is held in less esteem by his
former associates than other eX-SenatOTs
who have been nominated. There is
some very decided opposition to COnk-
ling's confirmation among Republican
Senators, but they will not attempt to
defeat the confirmation, as the Demo-
Gratis generally favor it, making OppOsi-
tiOn useless.
There is here unqualified disapprOval
of the personal attack of HOaT, of Massa-
chusetts, upon COnkling on Tuesday, in
executive session, where he took Occa
sion to leave the point at issue, and en-
ter into discussion of COnkling's pri-
vate character, that has never been
equaled in the United States Senate.
HOar was actuated by feeling of purely
personal character, due to the fact that
COnkling at one time influenced the re-
lection of Z. lockwood HOar at the time
he was nominated for the Supreme
bench.
WASHINGTON, February 27.-The Sen
ate Judiciary Committee agreed to-day
unanimously to report favOrably the
nomination of Mr.. COnkling for AssOci
ate Justice of the Supreme Court. The
action was by general consent and not
at formal meeting.

THE GARFIELD STAMP.

WASHINGTON, February 26.-The first
proof of the new five cent postage stamps
containing the vignette of the late Presi-
dent Garfield, and which is intended for
Queen Victoria, has been received at the
POstOffice Department in this city. 1t is
known as the Garfield stamp, and pre-
sents what is known as the three
quarter" view of the face. 1t is a most
excellent likeness. and a beautiful piece
of work, executed by the American Bank
Note Company. The stamp is set in
frame of ebony, containing a mat of
sterling silver, upon which is engraved
an exquisite border of fine geOmetric
lathe work. This is surrounded by rod
of solid gold nearly quarter of an inch
in diameter, cut in barleycOTn work of
new design, with brilliant facets by
Joaquin. This rod is between the silver
mating and the royal purple velvet on
the cOncave portion of the frame. A
French plate glass with beyelled edges
covers the picture and mating, and the
whole is inclOsed in a fine cedar box,
lined with royal purple velvet. This is
present from the American Bank Note
Company to Queen Victoria. The pic
ture arrived to-day, and will be sent to
the Queen through the State Department
after being shown to the President.

ALLIANCE WITH THE DUEL
IST AND REBEL.

We congratulate the Republicans
upon their alliance with Cameron, the
protector and defender of dueling.
Strange bedfellOws political lack of
conscience and political exigencies
make. The Republican party prides it
self upon its absolute hatred and hOr
rOr of dueling as relic of barbarism,
and yet it stands in Virginia as defen-
der of the last of barbarism. Even in
South Carolina public opinion has
pretty well settled down into renuncia-
tiOn of the code, and Virginia is its last
fOOthOld. There it is maintained by the
Republican party. The party is also
responsible for Riddleberger, who has
made himself conspicuous in blOOdless
duels, and, now, a Senator elect to the
United States Senate, appears in the
Virginia Senate as common brawler,
seeking to provoke by unseemly debate
his opponents to challenge and breach
of the peace Nashville American.

NOT GUILTY.
Nathaniel Lewis Acquitted at
Youngstown of Murder.

YOUNGSTOWN, o., February 26.-The
trial of Nathaniel Lewis, charged with
murder, came to sudden close to-day.
Lewis was charged with others with
placing distractions on the Ft. Wayne
Railroad track at East Alliance, Ohio,
some time ago, and thereby causing a
wreck in which several lives were lost
and much property destroyed. When
the case was called this morning, Prose-
cutOr Truesdale arose and announced
that iL view of the fact that John Lewis
had on the witness stand reversed the
testimony given by them before the Ex-
amining Court and before the Grand
Jury, and whereas gap is thus left in
the chain of evidence which they would
be unable to fill, the prosecution would
EOlle the Indictment against the accused,
and asked that the case be dismissed.
This announcement took Court, jury.
attorneys and spectators by surprise,
and there was much whispered comment
and many eXclamatiOns of fastOnishment.
The face of Lewis lighted up and smile
of satisfaction Overspread his cOunten-
ance as TTuesdale spoke. Counsel for
the defence said he would Iather have
the jury return a verdict for defendant
than have the case dismissed and the
Court charged the jury in accordance
with this request. The jury retired to
the jury room, and returning in a few
minutes filed into the room with YER
dict of not guilty,
Nathaniel Lewis, after shaking hands
with his counsel and thanking them for
the efforts they had put forth in his be-
half, walked out of the court free man.
In the corridor he was surrounded by a
number of his friends from New Brigh-
ton and vicinity, who had been called
here to testify in the case, and warmly
congratulated. Lewis returned to New
Brighton this morning on the 10 o'clock
P. & l.. E. train, accompanied by his
friends. He was very anxious to be
again with his family, whom he had not
seen for a couple of months. During
his confinement in the county jail he
said they had been cared for by his
brother.
John Lewis, who was indicted with
his father, Nathaniel Lewis, was aTrai-
gned in court this morning, and pleaded
not guilty. James Kennedy was assigned
as attorney to defend him.
