PHOrOGRAPHING IN COLoRS
A French Invention That Il Utilized In
Are and Commerce

From the New York Sun.
'How soon can 1 have my Photographic"
asked a lady who had gazed for the fraction of
a second at the camera in an establishment in
18th street.
"In six days with all the colors'
"She will get them in as short time as she
would an ordinary photograph. and they will
show the coOrs in the fabrics of her dress and
her complexion. The process is quick and
simple" said the operator.
"DO you take the cOOrs with the camera?"
mo. The preliminary process is the same
as in photography. We take the ordinary pho
Geographic negative By instantaneous phOtOgra-
ply. The patent lies in the manner of prOduc-
ing the cOlOrs after the negative has been
obtained. The paper on which the photograph
Is printed is covered with light wash Of colOrs
according to the notes taken by the operator at
the sitting No skill is required to apply the
wash. This is senstiZed by process projected
by patent. When we print from the negative
on this paper the cOlOrs take up all the lights
and shades. and the result is q perfect colOred
photograph. The process was invented by
Bonnaud. Frenchman and the photograph is
called BOnnaudtype."
"DO you cOnfne yourself to portraits?"
ooh, no. We take photographs of houses,
paintings, subjects for advertising, and sam
pies. Here ia a set of brierwood pipes and a
set OF lamp shades. Now the drummers for the
nrms manufacturing these, instead Of taking

A Snake With Two Feet.


Mr.. Richard Decker resident Of Waikiki
valley. In Ulster county, while working in his
Oatfeld recently. was surprised by black snake
which came at him with open mouth, his head
elevated from the ground 12 or IA inches. He
succeeded in kllingit with his pitchfork. and In
measurement found it to be 5 feet inches in
length. with a diameter of an inch and half at
the largest part. The extraordinary feature Of
the creature. however, was the presence of two
well formed legs with feet attached to the body
at point about Is inches from its tail. The
legs were OF a light pink or flesh color, without
bone, and SO elastic that when drawn to their
full length and suddedly released they would
spring back to their normal position at the
reptiles side. The feet were about the size of
a hazel-nut and were hoof-like in appearance
and of darker color than the limbs to which
they were attached. Upon each one Of these
feet or hoofs were 63 small claws, white and of
a horny substance The body Of the snake,
with the legs attached, was seen by most Of the
Inhabitants of the village before 1t was put into
alcohol aud forwarded to the National Museum
ut Washington.

English Ladies at the Races.

At the opening day at Goodwood, says cor
respondent, the display of ladies' costumes upon
the lawn was exceptionally brilliant. The royal
stand presented a perfect blaze of color. though,
as is frequently-nay, almost invariably-the
case, her royal highness, the Princess of Wales,
was most plainly dressed Of all. She wore a
close-ftting navy blue silk and black straw
bonnet, merely decorated with two or three
scarlet feathers. The portly Duchess of
Teck affected q costume of the nondescrpt
hue, termed "oatmeal," a tint somewhat
resembling curded cream, while her

on grassy slopes at GOOdwOOd, raised about

THE STAGE Az AN EXAMPLE.
Stage dressing exercises all enormous in1u-
ence upon the dress of women in general,
whether for good or evil, and it is pity that
this potent factor was not taken more largely
into account and made to feel it's responsibility.
Heretofore 1t has been either ignored or praised
or blamed without discrimination. and without
any sense or knowledge of the fitness or unfit
ness Of what was eulOgized or censured. The
cost was the great point. II the wardrobe OF
an actress was made in Paris, and cost several
thousand dollars. it was taken for granted that

curious to observe the impression made by Miss
Ellen Terry, whose exquisite dramatic art is
supplemented by an instinct for dress that
amounts to sixth sense. No matter in what
character she appears, her dress always seems
to be an absolute part of it, and to belong to it
80 entirely that one could not imagine it clothed
In any other garb.

The practice Of setting apart one or more
hens, with the view to give the proceeds to the
mission fund, has become very common in Eu-
rope, and has begun to prevail in Africa. One
missionary writes that at place about ten
miles from Cape Town, knowing that many
were poor, he suggested each family should set
apart a hen for missions. The first year the
proceeds of the missionary hens amounted to
over twenty-five dollars. One lady always calls
the eggs laid at her home on Sunday, ''mis-
sionary eggs, and the proceeds always 20 to
missions.

FIVE NECESSARY RULES.
A school in Massachusetts, recommends to ita
two hundred girl students sensible school
dress. Of which the following are some Of the
features: First, it is to consist of single layers
of clothing so that warmth shall be equally dis.
tributed over the body; secondly. it should be
upon the free and active use of the muscles
third, the materials should be soft, unexcitine
| In color and undistinguishable in pattern
fourth, the design should suggest rather thar
outline the figure, unless the material is elastic
and should be divided into few parts in order tC
be free from distractions; ffth 1t should avoid
whatever is unnecessary or that takes time and
strength that could be better put into work OF
play.
The combination undergarment Of knitted
wool or cotton, or both; the skirt of pleated
wool attached to lining waist cut with spring
over the hip, and polonaise or woven Jersey,
supplies all the requirements for such dress
If the polonaise is employed, the lining waist
may be extended so as to require only q deep
pleated fiounce Of the wool to bring It to TIT
length OF walking skirt, thus rendering Il
lighter and cheaper.
