colors, such as green. garnet,
etc. These positive colors un-
derlie enough of the taffeta
ground to give it a changeable
effect, greatly enriching the bro
cade, and, even apart from the
brocade, suggesting, indeed en-
forcing, combinations with other
silks of these same positive
colors. Nothing could be more
suitable for elegant out-of-door
attire.

More embroidered dress pat
terms cameyesterday; morethan
we've had before at any one
time-two or three hundred !;
and more generous in embroid-
cry, so far as we have seen; COL
ored and black.
We rarely speak of these en-
broideries in the papers; be-
cause they go SO quickly; and
so few can be got. To-day we
are fortunate.
Third and fourth circles, Chestnut street en-
trance.
Coarse, irregular basket work
made by color, not by texture !;
plain, and wide stripes of the
same, with darker like stripes
intervening; silk and wool.
Nothing could we'll be less invit-
ing than this, when looked at too
closely. The silk is invisible,
and the basket work is lost. But
at a distance of a yard Or
two, it is one of the pretty dress
cloths of the day; and the silk
CLEANS out of it with a richness
beyond the very moderate cost:
$1.25.
Very like the last is a silk
and-wool dull-looking plaid, rich,
fine and thin, which combines
we'll with melanges; $3.50.
Still another, with stronger
plaid; a real plaid over a ground
of basket work quite obscuring
it. This also combines with me-
langes; $I.25.

The salamandier.

We have always considered the popular
mythical legend or delusion, in regard to
the salamander's being able to 60 through
FIRE unscathed, as one Of the most preposter-
Gus of mythical delusions. A Western gen.
sleman, however, whom we know to be re-
liable, recently related to Us q story in rela-
ton to the lizards of Nevada, which would
seem to confirm the possibility of their en-
during intense heat for short time at
least. The black lizards of the sage-brush
State sre very easily domesticated, harmless,
social and intelligent. This gentleman had
several pet lizards, one of which lived near
A furnace where he burned retorts or moulds
for silver bullion The work required a
very hot fire, which he made open at each
end. The lizard would sit on the tree near
bv. watching him. His dog would fire.
oueutly chase the lizard if it ventured to
the ground, and compel it to take to the
tree again. Frequently, however, the liz
ard, apparently for the sport of the thing
alone, would dash down off the tree and
induce the dog to giyeit a sharp race, when
it would run right through The furnace,
coming out of the other end like fash,
unscathed, while the dog in his eagerness
would be burned at the FIRE before he could
stop. This would be daily occurrence.
and the lizard actually seemed to enjoy the
Joke on the dog The time that the lizard,
or salamander, was in the fire was very
short, and it doubtless could not have re-
manned there very great length of time;
but the fact of its not fearing the fire is
sufficient to have given rise to the idea of
the fire-proof salamander.- Philadelphia

A Bashful Bridegroom.

Senator Sebastian, of Tennessee, tells
this story :-"When l was young | was
the most bashful boy west of the Alegha-
nies. I wouldn't look at a girl, much less
speak to maiden; but for all that | fell
desperate in love with sweet, beautiful
neighbor girl. 1t was desirable match on
both sides, and the old folks saw the drift,
and fixed it up. | thought should die

ward country lout, about nineteen years

fairly well educated girl, in country and

vantages, and were, therefore, superior in
culture to the boys. l fixed the day as far
off as / could have it put. / lay awake in
a cold perspiration as the time drew near,
and shivered with agony as l thought of
the terrible ordeal. The dreadful day

somehow in dazed, confused, mechanical
sort of way. The guests one by one de-
parted, and my hair began to stand ON the

take that candle; you viii find your room
just over this. Good night, John, and may
the Lord have mercy on your soul" and
with a mischievous twinkle of his eye the
old man left the room. When / heard
him close distant door, staggered
to my feet, and seized the candle with

rations for retiring were few and simple in

sisting Of disrobing. The dreadful mo-

Mysteries OF Malaria.

Walter Coote, author of aWanderings,
South and East, /" who has been at the Fiji
Islands, has the following notes upon the
yagaries of what is called malaria, the
strange ways of which are often past ind
ing out:
1 have seen Englishman living in FIJI,
on the borders of almost stagnant estuaries,
with the densest and most rank vegetation
around them on all sides, with mosquitoes
and hundred such insects infesting the
district like plague; in dry seasons their
houses viii stand in the very center of great
plains of reeking ooze; in times of food the
muddy river win rise to their very verandas,
and vet these people are robust and healthy.
have gone from there and few weeks
later visited islands in the Solomon group
or New Hebrides, where l have found a
dry coral soil and high land, upon which the
pure trade-wind blows month after month;
steep land, too, from which the rain-water
is quickly borne downwards to the sea, and
this but few hundred miles from the FIJI
group, and in the same latitude and blown
upon by the same trade-wind And yet in
these places it is almost death for white
man to spend more than few months in
the year on shore, and practically no one
who lives ashore at all can hope to escape
frequent and severe attacks of fever.

Coin and Notes.

The relative cost in wear and tear of gold
coin as compared with bank notes has late
ly been investigated in England, and the
advantage has been found to be largely with
the coin. To manufacture a million of
sovereigns costs about $4,000 or about a
cent apiece. In fifteen years they lose in
weight one-half of one per cent, or about
5000, and become too light for further
use. This makes their total expense as
currency for the fifteen years S35, 900.
The paper and printing of million one
pound notes would cost, it is estimated,
four cents apiece, or $40, 600 at the outset,
and during fifteen years they would have
to be replaced at least three times, or with
active use, six times, thus requiring an out
lay of certainly 100000, and perhaps
$3.50, 900, for thesame period that million
soyereigns would remain in circulation.

cerebro-spinal Meningitis.

The brain is covered with three mem
branes. The one next to the skull is thick
and tough, and is called the dura mater.
The one which immediately invests the
brain. as the skin does the body, Is thin
and tender and is called the pia mater.
Between these Is cobweb-hke membrane,
called the arsehnoid, which secretes thin
Iubrieating Huid whereby all friction from
the movements Of the brain Is prevented.
As the spinal cord Is an extension of the
cerebral substance, the same three mem
branes accompany and invest il down
through the spinal canal. Each Of them
may be the seat Of disease.
Cerebro-spinal meningitis has It's proper
seat 10 the pia mater. As the name shows,
the membrane both Of the brain and the
spine Is afFected-inhamed The disease
Is fearful one, from its pain; it's rapidity
Of action; It's great mortality-thirty to
eighty per cent; and from lis liability, in
eases Of recovery, TO leave behind il more
or les Of permanent injury.
The inhamed membrane exudes q gela-
tinous huid which presses on the cerebral
and spinal substance, both Of which In
crease in volume. Abundance Of pus Is
generated, especially at the base Of the
brain and down through the spinal cord.
The Inflammation may extend to the other
membranes, and most Of the organs Of the
body may be more remotely affected.
The early symptoms are headache, dizzi.
ness, numbness in the limbs, stiffness of
the neck and limbs. But its onset may be
in fun force with high fever, intense head
ache, vomiting, delirium, spasms Of the
muscles Of the neck, back and limbs, and
intensely painful sensibiEty Of the skin.
These symptoms may continue from twelve
to twenty-four hours and be followed BY
the stage Of depression, at the beginning
Of which the Datiant may die, or, if he
passes through It, is most likely to live.
The disease is generally epidemical.
But the one fact which we would strongly
emphasize is that it follows in the track Of
defective hygienic conditions. The better
classes enjoy remarkable immunity from
its attacks. aForewarned IS forearmed- 2

to America frequently hire special car to
make trip across the continent. The
Grand Duke Alexis, the Duke of Suther-
land. and the Baron de Streuve, the Rus
sian Ambassador, are among those who have
made trips in American special cars. Dom
Pedro made his tour in Pullman hotel
car. The Brazilian Emperor marvelled at
the magnifcence of the hotel cars which
are now attached to the through trains on
all the great lines.
1t is a common thing to see a special car
on the rail. Rich Americans ride this way
in making long journeys, and people do not
wonder at it here half as much as they
would across the water. When party of
ten or twelve is made up to go from New
York to San Francisco, for instance, the
expense is no greater, if as much, to hire
special car, with cooks and walters, than 1t
would be to ride in an ordinary palace car
aad stop at irst-class hotels on the way.
Special cars are used more ON the roads
across the plains than in the East, on ac-
count of the distance between eating sta
tions and the lack of superior hotel accom-
modations When hotel train is char
tered for any particular occasion the rates
are made according to the distance and the
number of cars. The estimated cost of run
ming an engine, including an engineer and
fireman, Is twenty-five cents a mile, and no
road will send out an engine, no matter how
short the ran, for less than twenty-five
dollars. 1t is not always that a railroad
masnate has special engine. Generally
the car is attached to a regular train. Lit
tie is to be gained by using special en-
gine. The schedule time of trains on we'll
constructed roads is so fast nowadays that
it is impossible to better it, and car at
tached to one of these trains is just as ex-
elusive as il would be by itself. There are
some trains that are reserved for common
travel, and which persons travelling in spec
ial cars cannot enjoy the advantages Of
These are the limited trains. They are
made up Of certain number of cars--the
full Eumber that an engine can haul and
make schedule time-and even the officers
Of roads do not presume to use their au-
thority to attach their cans TO them and
run the risk Of belating them. A great
many people who ride in special cars enjoy
the Courtesy Of railroad companies owing
TO business relations, or for other reasons,
and are not asked to pay for having their
cars hanled Again, on some roads, besides
the eighteen full tickets, the occupants OF
the cars are compelled to pay bridge tolls,
A few roads run over bridges owned BY
corporations. for which privilege they arc
obliged to pay 20 much for each car.
There are few lateral roads which only
charge twelve tickets, bat eighteen Is the
rule.
The use If special cars has greatly in
ERASED in the last two years The rail-
road companies themselves do not have cars
to let. The palace car companies conduct
this branch Of the business entirely.-NsC
