Nil dcsperandum is the motto OF
our Judge of Probate. Last Sunday
being called to his Office down town
by affairs of an urgent nature, he
plunged into the bowling blizzard
and walked distance of more than a
half mile.
The town witnessed lively scene
on Tuesday last. A steer. the property
OF Mr.. IIenry F. Peters, escaped from
the parties having him in charge, ard
dashed madly through the principal
streets. oyertnrning several local Gel.
ebrities and numerous bob sledges and
cutters. 1t fortunately happened
that in none OF these mishaps was any
one severely injured. There was
some lively scrambling, however, to
get out Of, and to keep out of the
way Of the Infatuated animal in his
mad career, which terminated in his
capture on he ice near Stones mill.
II is of the utmost Importance to
the towns themselves and to the
county generally that at the elections
on Tuesday next, none but compel, mt
men be elected to any of the offices.
and in this connection we would urge
that in selecting assessors the voters
pick out their very best material.
This is the year in which Il new as
sessment is to be made of the land in
this county. and it is Il very great
responsibility to place upon any indi.
vilual, h, W yer compt tent judge
he may be. but when il is thrown
upon il man who is utterly unable to
appreciate the Importance Of the task
he is called upon to perform, it
amounts to more than blunder. AL
of the old assessors who are known to
be qualified for the position should be
reelected.

Mechanics in Education.

Seeing and feeling are two senses
which are more important in aiding to
a knowledge of our surroundings than
any others, and yet their education is
generally neglected until the p~ossessor
begins to learn something Of mechan-
les. BY mechanics in this connection is
intended any attempt to ccntrive, put
together, manufacture or change by
manipulation, so that q woman who
contrives and fashions a dress out of
the Uniformed and plain material may
be a mechanic. The use of mechanical
tools cannot be begun too early in life,
whether the pupil is to be a practical
mechanic OF to follow some other call
lng-therc are few vocations that do
not demand for success lsome practical
knowledge OF mechanics. The whit
Ting Yankees" possibly owe muck Of
their undisputed position as inventors
and good mechanics to the habit of US
ing a pocket knife. A very prominent
inventor and superior mechanic recent
ly remarked that the best of his taste
as u mechanic was undoubtedly given
by his schoolmaster, who was q
carpenter and .o;ner, and who worked
ut his trade in summer and taught the
district school in winter. If a bow did
Q possess Il foot rule. he made Que for
nm from u single. or constructc an
inch scale. The foot rule and Il pocket
knife he considered necessary to a
school-boy's outfit, and he encouraged
his pupils TO estimate dimensions by
the eye and then verify them by meas
urement. Wind wheels and water
mills were parts Of the pedagogue's
training, and the click-clack of the ono
OF the other could be heard all ABOUT
the school house and on the borders of
the brook in an adjoining field. Nunes
cut from pine boards. toy ships, bird
houses, bows and arrows, pudding
sticks, and most of the toys used by
boys forty years ago were made by
the schoolmaster's boys under his
direction. To-day, besides the prolific
inventor named, there are one superin-
tendent OF a railroad company, one
bridge builder, one Superintendent Of
a large mandatory, and two archi-
tects to be counted from memory who
probably received their bent for me-
chanics from the carpenter school.

All these lead lives of usefulness

and the people; and nothing in their

Variations in Human Anatomy.

It may not be generally known tina!
no two individuals have exactly the
same anatomical structure, and that
nearly every Il has III him some bony
prominence, supernumerary muscle or
abnormal blood-vessel, which tells the
tale of his descent. During the past
nine years l have been teaching anat-
emy, and nearly three hundredsubjects
have been disected under my imme-
date supervision; in these l have care
fully noted the variations occurring.
with the result of finding that scarcely

part-nay, many are very abnormal.
having as many as thirty to forty ga
riations in their bones, muscles, or A.
teries. l have found variations to oc.
cur more re luently in negro and In
dian subjects than in thosco # European
descent, When a variation in u bone,
muscle or blood-vessel is found, the
first question asked is: WHAT'S its NOR
biology? and it is the exception not to
be able to make it out; if Ii fails, it is
concluded that II knowledge is de-
ticient. and that the variation has a his
tory, if we could only discover 1t.
MANY VarlatlOnS are explained when
all appeal is made to comparative anat-
omy. a science which is as yet very ln-
complete, but which is rapidly %enlarg-
ing its boundaries. Some animals we
know by their fossil remains, and in

Sundry Toilets.

Suits are to be made This fall of
striped goods, with the stripes running
crOsswise. During the summer months
the fashion OF crosswise trimmings has
lbcen rapidly gaining ground. First
galloons were employed, with three to
eve rows on the skirts, and later the
skirts We're covered with this trimming.
Then ..skirting was employed. and tie
goods so arranged that the stripes
formed curves. At present ribbon vel
vet is the age in Paris. 1t is used in
I'LL widths from the narrowest to goods
awo inches wide. A dress arranged in
this manner has a round skirt trimmed
with three rows of ribbon velvet and
slightly draped on the feft side. The
unique is plated over the left hip and
the lower part is bias. 1t is uraped on
the left side like the skirt, in the back
is a plated breadth Of goods with the
plaits taken in a bias from the left to
1hc right side. Three rows Of velvet
are on the lower part Of the goods.
They are placed bias like the plaits.
Three rows of velvet are also around
ahe apron. The vast is very odd, be-
ing trimmed on one side only. 1t
closes straight down the front and has
"a drapery which is shirred at the neck
land on the waist. The drapery has
three rows OF velvet on the right side.
Hhe large turned-down collar has three
Tows Of velvet on the left side only.
The basque is cut up over the hips and
terminates in a kind of rectangular
pocket, which has three rows OF ribbon
velvet placed on vertically. Another
model in a very different style, but also
trimmed with velvet, is of puttv.col
orcd India cachemire and striped vel
vet. with a putty ground and garnet
stripes. having m~any-colored fine
threads on either side. The velvet
skirt is perSctly plain. The unique
consists OF a cuirass in agnes Sorel''
style and rounded on the basque. The
'front.' opens to below the breast, and
,hcn again rear the left hip, and is
trimmed with 8 piece of velvet coming
from underneath. This last is at least
Two inches deep. The apron of the
tunique is plated and fastened to the
lower part Of the waist, with the point
incliring toward the left side. The
back O. the tunique is plated double
and bias. 1T Is very short on the right
eide and on the left side it forms a long,
shelt-shaped end.
A handsome walking and visiting
1ress is Of black faille and lace. On
uie lower part of the round skirt is a
marrow fable tluting. Above this is a
ss.es tlounce. W the front is a
breadth OF lace which forms two full
sullings. Narrow tlounces are taken
up The back to the middle Of the skirt.
Elm the lower part of the right side of
