Ii is instructive to walk into a large and
commodious store and look upon twenty
thirty or fifty figures in full toilets OF
paper, and 50 artistically made and draped
that AT a casual glance they seem TO be
silk or satin.
The first of these figures was made Just
thirty years ago. when French tissue was
used for the dresses: since then English
tissue paper has usurped the place of the
latter. rs il lasts longer and is stronger.
The domestic mills have not as yet sue
ceeded in manufacturing more than two
colors successfully, pink and green; con
sequently, the figures dressed in pinks or
greens are rs per cent cheaper than the
other figures.
These dresses are first cut and pasted to-
gether; the trimmings. whether of cord
ings. pufings or ~nounces, are then added
If The garniture is to represent braid or
galloon the patterns are first delicately
traced on the paper and then cut out with
scissors. The samples Of tissue come in
every conceivable shade. electric blue,
mandarin, apple green-all the colors are
reproduced, but in plain paper. So in
this season of brocades and e~mbroideries
all the figures must be designed and cut
out by hand. then pasted on; for instance.
a deep electric blue. adorned with palm
leaves of different colors, was in hand one
week before its completion.
1t would seem n simple thing to make Il
paper frock. but to paste these figures on
successfully there must be the incest estl-
mate of mucilage. so there will be no
shininess around the edges Of the figures.
Fringe and ribbon are reproduced with
great fidelity. and the coloSs and effects
are studied from cloth and silk costumes.
The dresses are not placed together either
for simple effect, for taken apart they
prove to be exact and reliable patterns of
the latest styles. Many of the other
patterns are duplicates from them. The
cost of the making of these dresses is al
most as great as the cloth costumes would
be, but there the expense ends, the
materials not being estimated at nll.

A curious fact has been observed along
the Colorado streams. Often all the wa
ter Of u creek will be diverted from a
creek. and for a few miles below the tap
the channel will be almost dry. A little
further down the stream will begin to re-
appear and to enlarge at every mile, and
finally it can be tapped again and nearly as
much water be taken out in a second chan.
mel as the one next above. On some
streams this process has been repeated
three times with success.

1t reads almost like a fairy tale, because
such acts Of spontaneous kindness are rare,
and yet 1t actually happened a few days
since under my own observation in a Chest
nut street toy store. A small ragged boy,
about 8 years old. stood in the doorway
cycling wistfully II large-sized velocipede.
A sweet-faced lady in the doorway caught
sight of the longing In the child's face,
and going up TO him asked: Would you
like very much to have that v~elocipedeyr
The boy only looked at her in open-eyed
wonder. and In answer TO the repeated
question stammercd out. Yes The lady
walked up 10 the counter. inquired the
price of the velocipede, laid down the
money for II, and called to the child to
come and take the coveted treasure. The
little fellow grasped it bodily in his arms.

the store as fast as he could with his

There are many hundreds of
small tenant farmers, and large
ones, too, in Great Britain, who
would be amazingly better off, 6nan-
cially and socially, if they were to
come and settle in East Tennessee.
Here good lands may be bought for
half the rent that is paid per acre
for lands in the old country. Here
the agriculturist is lord not only of
his lands, but of himself, and can
adopt any system of farming his
intelligence prefers, and when ne
dies can leave to his sons prop
erty that will yearly double in value.
Now is the time to come to East
Tennessee; a few years hence and
lands will be held with a tirmer
grasp; already the hold is tighten
ing. But the average English ten.
ant farmer, unfortunately, knows as
much of the United States as he
knows Of the table-lands of the
moon.

NEWS AND NOTES.

"The Swiss make good immigrants
for themselves, and set to work with
patient energy, looking to the end,
fruitful farms they can call their
own. They do not desire to be mere
tillers of the soil for other people,
or to clear up and prepare lands for
occupancy in which they have no
personal interest" The above was
the substance of a speech made at
the recent immigration Convention,
at Nashville, by Mr.. Kaserman,' Of
Winchester, in this State, a man
who has through life done much to-
wards bringing his fellow-country-
men to Tennessee. There are now
about fifty Swiss families in Frank
lin County, and another colony in
Grundy County, on the Cumberland
Plateau.

The Pope may, as the song de-
clares, "lead happy life, free from
matrimonial STRIFE" but as with the
wearer of a crown, the wearer of the
tiara carries an uneasy head. Be-
reft Of temporal power beyond the
gates of the Vatican, the Holy
Father feels anxious still regarding
further encroachments upon his
limited liability, and at the present
moment is said to be casting an eye
over the blue waters of the Mediter-
ranean, with Malta, and the protec-
torate of Protestant England, as the
probable headquarters of the Ro-
man Church.
