THE COMING CHANGE.

Open Ranges Giving Way to WeH-CuIti'
waited Farm Properties.
1t is patent to every observing man
that radical change in the mode and
manner of raising cattle in the West
is at hand. The open range must now
give away to cult 5ated fields. From
this forward the man who would have
profit in cattle-growing must have hay
ricks and corn cribs. A few years
hence, and a strictly range industry
Will be known but IN history. The
farmer will become the cattle-grOwer,
and the range man will be but myth.
His herds will eat the grass upon the
plain and be gathered home to winter.
The old nOmadic life of the Orient, in
which the cattle on q thousand hills
were a mans only possessions, and
their supervision almost his only indus
try, and the modern bonanza farming
of California, Dakota and Colorado, in
which livestock has cut but little
figure, is changing. The farmer viii
become the cattle-grOWer in the COM
ing future.

sources, and the solid, growing pros

vision Of our lands into farms of rea-

who realize that the flock and herd are

which may tend to keep up a well

SUMMER JEwELRY.
Simple Silver Novelties Recently Intro

Simple Silver Novelties Recently Intro
duced by the Trade.
Very little jewelry is worn with
GUNNER toilettes, but some simple nov
elites have been introduced in the way
of studs and collar buttons to be worn
with the linen, pique and percale
chemisettes now so much in favor.
These are made of white enamel on
silver, dotted with blue or scarlet, and
are eOol-lOOking ornaments, that may
be kept clean by washing them in soap
suds There are sleeve buttons in
linked pairs, in round or oval shapes,
TO match the small buttons for ladv's
3hemisette, or the spiral screw studs
for a mans shirt bosom. Another
fancy is the use OF the moon-stone in
Iilver-mounting for lace pins, brooches,
cuff buttons and screw earrings. Very
inely carved ivory Japanese masks are
also mounted in silver for summer
brooches. For light mourning are
white enameled pansies of perfect
shape, done in silver and quite mex
pensive, while for deeper mourning
ibis flower is done in lustreless black
enamel. The white pansy pins, and
also daisy pins and true-lovers' knots,
of what seems to be white ribbon but
is enameled silver, are worn with col
ored dresses as well as by those who
wear mourning. Silver has also been
brought into use for belts, and is
shown in dull old-silver richly-chased
belts, and in others clear and lustrous
without decoration. The entire han
dies of umbrellas are also made of sill
yer, cut into quaint and tasteful shapes
at the ends.-HaTpcT''S BazGT.

INEXPENSIVE DRESSES.
UnrivaIed Popularity of Sheer seersuck'

UnrivaIed Popularity of Sheer seersucker
and Bourette striped Ginghams.
For morning dresses are the sheer
seers1cker ginghams sold for fifteen
cents a yard in stripes of cream with
brown, white with blue, white with
black, or else two shades of blue, one
much darker than the other. These
are made up precisely as stuff dresses
are, yet without Innings, as the inside
Innings and facings shrink differently
from the seersucker when washed.
The waist may be a belted full waist
with high collar and cuffs, but it is
more often a position basque in which
white pique vest is set in Breton
shape, that is, all in one piece and but
toned down on each side with small
pearl buttons either quite fiat or rount
as ball. The skirt is kilt in fOrma
side plaits, with a short apron and long
black drapery put on in burnOose lOOp
at the belt. The foundation skirt is q
the seersucker, and is furnished with
cushion and steels precisely as heaviel
dresses are. No trimming is added Il
such dress. The collar and cuffs arr
simply stitched, or else a bias piping
fold is sewed in the edges. The piqu(
vest has pique collar attached, anc
the seersucker collar is only on the
sides and back. When the vest is
omitted, good plan is to make &
notched revers collar of the dress goods
and wear a white chemisette. The
ecru and brown striped dresses of this
kind are used for travelling on short
journeys where changes of temperature
do not compel the use of a wool trav
cling suit.
The bourette striped ginghams ara
also popular for wash dresses, and may
be used IN combination with plain
/ bingham, or else the whole dress may
be of the stripes. When two kinds OF
bingham are used, the stripes are made
up for the skirt with a plain bingham
/ drapery and a plain basque, with vest,
/ collar and cuffs of the stripes The
/ long swinging back draperIes are liked
| for these dresses with an apron pointed
on one side and square-cOrnered at the

measuring forty-eight or fifty inches,
made by joining breadths of the ma,

THE sCHOOL-HOUsE.

Valuable Suggestions Concerning the Goa
struction of school Buildings.
The school-house should be pre-emi-
nently the building of the locality, the
exponent of the peoples progress and
intelligence, the pride of every citizen.
Its site should be central, but never at
the expense of healthiness, proper size
ofgrOunds and freedom from noise. The
grounds should have a moderate slope,
with perfect facilities for sewerage and
drainage.
The schooI-yard should be large
enough for all sorts of games and
sports which are now driven from the
street. If space enough can not be
found in the heart of a city or village,
put the school where it can have
ground. Agassiz once said he thought
the reason why the Swiss boys stood
nine hours of daily study better than
the American boys did six, was because
of the long walks and mountain climbs
living between their homes and their
schools.
The light should be ample-the
window space never less than one
fourth of the floor space. Surrounding
buildings may sometimes necessitate as
high as forty per cent. The windows
should be large, or in groups, and
furnished with curtain or blinds. The
most constant light is the north. The
walls and ceilings should be delicately
tinted, and have a surface that will
absorb disease germs, and that can be
readily washed.
The room should be thirty-two feet
long, from twenty-five to twenty-eight
feet wide, and not more than fourteen
feet high. Forty pupils are enough for
one room. The floor should be of hard,
polished wood, This absorbs little,
and is easily cleansed. If the rooms
are heated by furnaces, these should be
central, and of such size as to heat by
a large quantity of warm air. Tho
temperature should be nearly the same
III all parts of the room, and nevervary
more than five degrees between the
floor and ceiling.
The arrangements for ventilation
should be such as to give each
pupil at least fifteen hundred cubic
feet of fresh air every hour. The
windows, except in mild weather,
should never be suddenly opened for
ventilation. The pure air should be
| constantly supplied. The demands OF
sanitary science should be necessarily
urged, until the best system of ventiIa-
ton is adopted in every school in the
land.
The hall should be large. Each
school-room should have its own cloak
room, properly warmed and ventilated.
The closets should be within doors,
and be neat and attractive.-P. "

Coca Not a New Remedy.

Notwithstanding the prominence at
tanned by coca within a comparatively
recent time, it was in fact introduced
some years ago in France, where it has
rendered most valuable service in

nervous and muscular systems, and
terms it also a substance depargne, :"
or that which prevents the rapid waste
of tissue, and thus enables the con-
sumner to 90 a long time without food.
The leaf contains an essential oil,
which is of an aromatic odor coupled
with the flavor of the fresh plant; and
the slightly acid and bitter taste of the
leaf is attributed to the presence Of
tannin, and to the alkaloid- somewhat
