the entrances to the State Capitol, excepting
the west one, have been kept locked during

but it was borne somewhat patiently until

one who tried locked door and then walked
around TO the front, came in boiling and
raised 'cusses on the frat person met. The
doors are not only locked, but wooden cleat

the sill on the inside. One Of tie
employees in the building states that the
order was Issued from the Secretary of
States office ss the request of deputy in

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

All the scholastic scaffolding falls as
ruined edifice before one single word
Faith.
In the last day it will not be asked
what we did or what we believed, but
what we loved.
Trust that man in nothing who has
not conscience in everything.
Occasions do not make man ff;ll,
but they show what he is.
We love in others what we lack our
selves, and would be everything but
what we are.
To tell men that they cannot help
themselves is to fling them into reck-
lessness and despair.
Education is the only interest wor-
thy the deep, controlling anxiety of
the thoughtful man.
Don't wait for somebody else to go
ahead. Break your own path. Don't
put off to-day's work until tomorrow
in hope that it will be done for you.
Affectation in any part of our car
riage is lighting candle to our defect,
and never fails to make us be taken
notice of, either as wanting sense or as
wanting sincerity.
Thinkers are as scarce as gold; but
he whose thought embraces all his sub

and is fearless of consequences, is a di-

Adopting European Customs.

Wealthy New York families are fast
forming their habits upon French and
English models, says an exchange.
Mother and daughters each have their
own maid, and the Gown" maid never
loses sight of her young mistress. She
sleeps in an alcove, or small room, sep
arated only by q portiere, or, if her
quarters are in another part of the
house, she is the last to leave her at
night and the first to see her in the
morning, for she makes her clothes, she
prepares her toilet for the day, she
superintends her bath, dresses and I'M
dresses her, accompanies her on all her
walking, shopping and other little
expeditions. The oversight exercised
is constant; and SO minute in the
nature of the case that the young girl
can do nothing, not even post a letter,
except under surveillance.
In society. and especially in the ball
room, this is removed. The maid may
be in the dressing-room. the chaperone
|chattering with some other matron
within few feet of her, but the feel
ling of perpetual restraint is in a
measure removed, and the joy in it,and
THE temptation to avail herself of it, is
all the greater for its contrast with
her daily life. That the restriction
and scrutiny should be reserved for the
home, and the freedom accorded in
society, is one of those social incon-
|sistencies which arise from the attempt
to graft European customs on Ameri-
'can stock.

LADIES' DEPARTMENT
"ArtiHciai" Bellies.

A floor-walker in one of the largest
stores in Philadelphia gives some
amusing stories of the artificial society
"belles" who go round to get items for
their firms. He says that the "belles"
are always manufactured from the
prettiest and most stylish-looking girls
in the establishment, combined with
store dolmans and sealskin sacques.
They are instructed before starting
with excuses for not buying the dresses
they examine with so much interest.
Sometimes they declare that they "wish
to inspect some clothes for friend, or
a relatives" he added, winking. "a
few weeks ago an employee of a large
house was sent to 'hypothecate style
that it was important her people
should have. She tried on the pat
tern, looked at herself in the glass,
asked the price of it, but left without
buying, saying she would consult with
her husband. She thought she had it
down fine,' but try as she could she
was unable to reproduce it. Finally
it was concluded by the firm that it
would be impossible to do anything
unless it were bought, so she went and
got it. Acting up to her character, she
asked them to send it home for her.
They requested her address, and as she
had not been prepared for this she
naively gave her right one, which was
near Eighth and Lombard. The cat
was out of the bag. They doubted
whether a resident of that neighbor-
hood could afford $500 for wearing
apparel, and had her followed to the
very store she had been sent out

Practical Helps

The railroad reading-room -...i, in
Springfield, Mass, was filled with rail-
road men on recent evening to hear
DIR. William G. Brock talk about the
first aid to the injured" He said the
greatest danger from an accident was
hemorrhage, which can be stopped by
putting sponge into the wound and
tying a bandage tightly around the
limb or body. When an arm or a leg
is cut, the bandage should be tied
above the wound, and if rubber
bandage is used it is very easy to stop
The flow of blood even without tying.
But if a limb is broken the broken
bone should be extended and a wide
cloth bandage tied around it. DR..
Brock thought every engine and
caboose should have a box to hold
bandages and sponges. Everything
possible should be done in carrying an
injured person to make him comforta,
bic, and the best way is to lay him on
a board in natural position and tie
him to it, Then if the jolting of the
car causes pain, the ropes should be
tied to something overhead and he be
allowed to swing back and forth. He
will then be perfectly easy. A certain
artery can be touched and the flow of
blood stopped, but in the excitement of
an accident one has not the time to
hunt for an artery, and a bandage is
much more easily used.
Secretary Ingersoll, of the national
association, then came forward and
said that at some reading-rooms a
supply of bandages and such things
were kept to send out on wrecking
trains, but DR.. Brock thought that would
hardly be necessary because room full
of those things and mattresses are
kept in the Boston & Albany building.
DIR. Breck's talk was illustrated with a
skeleton, charts, etc, and excited much
interest. Secretary Ingersoll said no
first lecture of any such a course for
the railroad men had ever been so well
attended in this country.

Blouse waists will be worn with The
wash dresses of next season. They
may be plain on the shoulders, with
their only fullness that which is gath

slender figures the shoulders may be
shirred slightly, and the fronts Tapped

slightly open and pointed.
Tides in some houses take the form
Of draped scarfs. Scarfs of India
muslin embroidered in bullion and
sebreo thread are drawn up in the mid
die and fastened to the back of uphol-
stored chairs in such way that the
ends hang as draperies half way to the
seat. The advantage about these
tides is that as they are securely fas-
tened they do not annoy visitors by
clinging to their mantles.
Linen collars and cuffs of the shape
known as the squire" are seen on
many trinity cut cashmere home
dresses. They look both neat and
natty. Another fashion in lingerie is
trim upright collar, about an inch
and a half in hight, to which are
gathered on the lower edge two rufiles
of lace, one much deeper than the
other. This collar is of course worn
outside the dress, and fastens in front
with connecting links or with ring,
into which is set a brilliant jewel of
some kind.

CLIPPINGS FOR THF CURIOUS.

Casting bronze, the sculpture of
marble and chryselephantine work
date from the beginning of the sixth
century b. G. Boratades, the Syko-
oman potter invented the first of these.
His daughter was the first to make
silhouette drawing.
The French word for pepper is de-
rived from the name of a certain
Father Poivre, missionary to Cochin
China, who, while a prisoner at Bata-
via, learned how to cultivate the spice,
and taught the secret to the farmers
in the French dependencies.
A horse habitually walks into sa-
looms at Fort Wayne, Texas, and stands
up at the bar like a man, and drinks
glass after glass of beer as long as the
bystanders will pay for them. He
closes his lips owes the top of the tum-
bier, lifts his head and the beverage
gurgles down.
House lizards have long been known
to be very sensitive to the strains of
music, but scientific writer says it is
not due to the sense of hearing, but
to the sensibility of the cutaneous sur

Miles away from the coast, in GER

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.

Sir William Thomson follows DR..
Thomas Reid in ascribing to man six
senses instead of five, namely, the
sense of force, of heat, of sound, Of
light, of taste and of smell.
Smoke will soon be at premium.
From 100000 cubic feet of smoke
given out by say 1000 cords of wood,
it is said that $4,000 pounds of acetate
of lime, 200 gallons of alcohol and
twenty-five pounds of tar may be OBJ
tanned.
Taking the enumeration Of the peo-
pie of France in 1881 as basis, M.
Chervin shows the increase since 1876
has been only twenty per 1000, while
in England it was 145, and in Ger
many as high as 574 per 1000. Other
things being equal, Maine and Nor
mandy should give a great increase of
population; but the fact is that the
number of people is "conspicuously"
diminishing.
Prof. Feser, of Munich, has been
making experiments on animals with
view to establishing the connection
which exists between diet and liability
to infection. In the trials he has made
on rats inoculated with the poison of
cattle distemper, he demonstrated the
fact, says the Lancet, that the animals
that had been fed on vegetable diet
were quickly attacked by the disease,
while those that had been fed exclu-
sively on meat resisted the effect of
the incubation.
The readiness with which certain
solids conduct sound is familiar fact

the river by the current, and by plac-

applying the other to the ear, the clash
OF the moving pebbles as they strike to-
gether is distinctly heard by persons in
boats on the surface. The sound is a
cracking like that produced in frying.
Good reason exists for believing that
hay-fever is caused by pollen, accord
ing to Mr.. G, P. Plowright, an English
microscopic, who says the pollen rap
idly begins to throw out pollen-tubes
when brought into contact with the
warm and moist mucus membrane of
the bronchial tract. Similarly he
thinks that the spores of some fungus
growing on grasses must enter the
bronchial tubes of sheep, and germi-
