Aerial Warfare.

In lecture recently delivered in Lon
don, Professor Cover suggests plan of
aerial warfare after this pattern: Could
armies, forts and arsenals be seriously
assailed from that quarter in which at
tack was not now expected-the ali
above? His belief from four years Of
study and observation, was in the af
iirmative, and as means TO that end he
proposed simply to tranfer to the upper
levels the general plan of torpedo war
fare, upon larger scale and with its cf-
fectivc range indefinitely extended. lie
suggested that by means Of acrostats, eX-
plosious of one thousand pound shells Of
gun cotton might be arranged over the
enemys position. Summarizing his pro-
posals, the lecturer said, in brief.
propose to you a warfare by gun-cotton
and hydrogen to make the loss Of an
army result of its meeting an opposing
wind, to destroy the security of fortified
positions, and finally to show, upon the
simplest principles of self-preservation.
that nations must keep pace and great
armies he disbanded.

Tie Birth or Fashion.

Nine. de Pompadour once had an ugly
pimple on her chin. She was vexed,
and, at last, in despair, pasted piece of
black plaster over the offending spot.
Result; all the ladies in the court APP
peared the following week with pieces Of
plaster on their faces. A fashion was
established, and it was kept up for
long time. The same lady, as | suppose
you know, was exceedingly diminutive
in stature. To remedy this defect she
invented the hight celed boots. They
were unknown before her time. Result
the ladies of the court took to high
heeled boots, and another fashion had
birth.
Marie Antoinette had enormous guam.
titles of hair. She didn't know what
to do with it. She was waiting for q
barber one day with the intention of
being shornT and had piled up her
hair in a careless manner, when she sud.
denly found that this style of head dress
set off her small features to advantage.
Result: monstrously high couture came
into fashion, and were worn for very
long time. Anne of Austria had exqui-
sitely formed arms. Result: short sleeves
came into fashion.
The Princess of Wales is the unfor-
tunate possessor of limp. No, sir; not
little amble, but an ugly, unprcposses-
sing limp. Would you believe itl Some
time ago large number of ladies had
one heel of their shoes made lower than
the other. Result: the "Alexandria
limp became the height of fashion. The
"Grecian bend" was another. result of
this unfortunate defect. Well, this same
noble lady has some slight deformity in
the neck which prevents her wearing
dresses cut low. Result: the fashion,
which still RACES among English ladies,
for bodices reaching almost to the ears,
which fashion is much ridiculed among
the Parsians.
