AN ENGLISH SCHEME.
Proposed Light-Ship and HarbOr Refug
 in

Proposed Light-Ship and Harbor Refuge
 in Mid-Ocean.
 An Eng glish inventor is hard at work upon plan by which he hopes the dangers of ocean travel will be dimin- ished. A light-ship, cable station and harbor of refuge in mid-Atlantic are very desirable things to have, he says, and accordingly he has prepared his estimates and built his model. An eighty-foot-square steel cushion, with a pyramid top, having a deck and sixty foot light-tower at its apex, is the prin- cipal feature of the invention. Four cables from the corners connect at considerable depth with a single anchor-cable, thus allowing the vessel to swing freely before any wind or cur rent. From the center of the vessel wires will connect with the various At lantic cables, so that ship news can be transmitted. Safety is assured by ex- neme strength and minute subdivision into water-tight compartments; also by the shape of the decks and sides, from which the heaviest waves will, the inventor claims, be defected. The ad- vantages of the scheme are stated to be: First, that shipwrecked sailors or laundering vessels would have refuge for which to steer; second, that such light-ship would become place of call for ocean steamers, even though not in distress, and that much ship news could therefore be furnished; third, that in- valuable aid could be given to British weather-bureau forecasts; fourth, that the expense. of cable transmission would be greatly diminished by use of relay apparatus, such as this vessel could con tain. We might also expect the light keepers on such vessel to publish the lMid-A Atlantic WaUe, furnishing the lat est cable news to eager passengers. The model will soon be submitted to the Trinity Lighthouse Board for experi- ment and approval.-LO'1Jon Cor. N. r. Teleqr07n.

Colored Gentleman Corrects a Mistaken
 Young Man.
 '1 desiah to explain a tragedy, sah, J said very intelligent-looking colored man to Captain Starkweather at the police headquarters recently.
 "What is it?"
 "About an hour ago, sah, 1 was pro. ceeding along Hastings street. A young man who was drivin' a delivery wagin looked at me wid very open countenance and remarked dat dere was new coon in town. De refeckshun was intended to re. fleet on me, sah."
 ''No doubt of it.''
 ''De young man was entirely mistaken, sah. Ize hb'd in Detroit twelve years. Oars muffin new bout me, sah-not eben any new chllblains."
 But what about the tragedy"
 ''Well, sah, we collided. I specks l collided little mo- wid him dan he did wid me. He cum down off dat wagin, an he rolled around in de snow, an when 1 got frew wid him he bore de appearance oi blasted rose."
 "And what do you want done?"
 ''Nuffin', sah, 'cept if Pm wanted fur dis tragedy I want you to know whar' you kin Smiths, on Tasting street, and hev him inquar' fur Prof. Babcock Sharp, de gem'lan who initiates a mocking-bird to perfeckshun, an who am an old coon in town."-Detroit Free Press.

HOME AND FARM.

Rye Gems: Two cups rye, one quarter cup four, two teaspoonfuls Royal powder, sifted together. one egg, one-quarter cup of molasses, milk to mix soft.-The Caterer.
 It is told of kicking horse that he was cured by suspending sack behind him filled with hay. At first his kicking was something terrible, but he subsided entirely when the hay returned toward his heels every time.-M y. Tunes.
 For a dainty breakfast dish cut pork tenderlions in very thin slices; stew them in little water till they are near ly done; then put them in saucepan and fry them till light brown. Serve on buttered toast, and with raw tomatoes sliced thin.-W Western Rural.
 Fine manure, spread thinly and evenly upon the moving and pasture land, will have an excellent effect. Coarse manure is best when thoroughly composted, with either peat or swamp muck, or even with soil, as it becomes almost entirely homogeneous.-Mo''t- real Witness.
 The Maryland Farmer is warmly in favor of feeding cattle in yards and sheds instead of pasturing them, at great expense for fencing and waste of food. The cost of fences is, it says, usu- ally more than the value of the ani- mals pastured, and some times more than the land inclosed.
 An animal impoverished in flesh, says the National Stockman, can not grow or mature, and it must be main- tained at loss of feed, interest on the money invested, and of the time of the farmer. An animal must be kept in good flesh and thriving to make it grow, develop and prove profitable.
 To broil ham nicely slice the meat from the ham raw, as thin as you can, then put it into pan of cold water; set it on the stove in stewpan and let it come to boil; then have your griddle hot, and broil the meat with little but ter dropped into the pan and plentiful sprinklihg of black pepper.-Boston Bulletin.
 Egg gruel is at once food and medi- cine. Some have great faith in it's efficacy in chronic dysentery. Boil a pint of new milk; beat four fresh eggs to a light froth and add to the milk while it boils; stir together thor oughly, but do not let it boil again; sweeten with loaf sugar and grate in a small nutmeg; add a little salt. Use half of it while it is warm, and the other half in two hours or so.-M. E. Fdrn1er.
 Ginger pound cake: Six cups of flour, two cups each of butter, brown sugar and molasses, eight eggs, table spoonfuls each of cinnamon, ginger and soda and two nutmegs. Dissolve the soda in cup of sour milk. In baking, take particular pains not to let the cake scorch, for gingerbread is of all cakes the easiest to burn. Line the pans with greased paper, aud put brown paper over the top to prevent the crust. form ing too quickly.-Boston Budget.

Matter Poured in the Atlantic.

Prof. Reade, in a recent lecture before the Liverpool Geological Society, re- ported as the results of his calculations that one hundred and fifty million tons of matter were annually poured into the Gulf of Mexico by the Mississippi river, which would in the course of five hundred years denude the land to the extent of one foot over the whole basin. He also calculates that the Mississippi, La Plata, the Amazon and St. Law renee remove an average of one hun dred tons to the square mile from the whole American continent. As to the amount of matter poured into the At lantic by all the rivers of the world, Prof. Reade estimates it would, if con- verted into solid rock, at two tons to the cubic yard, make cubic mile every six years.

 From that hour his life has been changed. Wherever the way has opened, he has been preaching, telling others what the Gospel has done for him. Rev. Sam Jones and MT. Small have held meetings in various parts of the South, and their work has been signally successful. It is estimated that the lives of from thirty-fve to forty thousand persons have thus far been af- fected by their efforts and meetings Their work is evangelistic and undenomination- al, and their avowed object is to seek the conversion of all and to induce them to live righteously, soberly and godly in this present life, so as to be prepared for the life to come.
 In personal appearance MT. Small is tall and slim, 1.-the of limb and long armed. His well-shaped head rests upon somewhat slender shoulders. His face expresses force and gentleness, manGness and intelligence, and is lighted by clear, bright black eyes looking through steel-bowed spectacles; and it is figured by large brown mus tache.

PRETTY JERSEYS.
Fashionable Spring CoIors and How They
 Should be Arranged.

Fashionable Spring Colors and How They
 Should be Arranged.
 Never was any one style of bodice more universally popular than the jer- sey has been for several years past. Even those who at first appearance de- rided it, have now not only grown familiar with its face, but have actually embraced it in their list of necessary and comfortable articles of complete wardrobe, the most critical-minded people having reconciled themselves to its severe outlines, and accommodated their notions of proper dressing to the still prevailing fashion. A pretty vari- ation-noted upon spring toilet from London-of the jersey, shows the front of the bodice left open, with an under vest, or, as one may call it, a second front from the side seams, which fastens down the center and affords a founda- ton for the Moliere or long loose vest which falls some distance below the waist. This vest is of soft surah little lighter in color than the beige jersey of silk stockinette, which is bordered with golden-brown lace plaited on, and turned back on the jacket. There are deep turnover collar and cuffs to correspond. A simple means of improving a jersey is to take three lengths of velvet ribbon of suitable width. The center one is fastened just at the neck opening, and reaches to a little below the chest. The others are shorter on each side, and the three lengths are arranged all the way down in short, close loops, with beaded pen dants mingled with the loops. Bands of beaded passementerie also quickly change the plain look of jerseyto one very dressy and rich, and it is surpris- ing how very little alteration instantly renders becoming what before was strikingly the reverse.
 In fashionable spring colors, all shades of brown and many of green and yellow are certainly predominant. In pinks are some lovely new tints of even- ing wear under lace or transparent muslin. Primrose, amber and corn yellow are also to be much used as foundation slips under diaphanous dresses. There are also some exquisite shades of Persian -mauve to be used in com DllaGlOn WlUD Dldck or NnlU6 Idce- LII grays are imported some rare and beau tiful pearl, dove, silver and creamy tints in surah, satin sublime, Ottoman, Irish poplin; and in cashmere vigogne and serge in woolen goods, which are most attractive, while the pastel shades in both grays and browns come in col ors capable of producing the most artis- tic effects in elegant carriage and visit ing costumes. Hedge-rose pink and a deep rich shade of Venetian green will compose a fashionable combination in evening toilets of silk, satin and velvet. Whatever colors, however, are chosen to appear in tine composition of toilet, one rule must be borne in mind, namely, that the darker color must invariably frame the lighter. For instance, in the style so thoroughly at the height of fash ion for ceremOnious toilets, that is, the skirt or merely the tablier of one ma terial and color under a train or over dress of another, the front portion must always be the lighter shade framed by draperies of the darker.-N.

HOMES EXCHANGED.

Some Startling Facts for Women Not Worthy of This Appellation.
 Alecture entitled Mothers, the Health Officers of Home," was delivered by Dr. Oscar c. De Wolf before the Woman's Physiological Institute re- gently. The doctor said the average American woman's conception of home was sadly defective. She judged the home from the society standpoint in- stead of the reverse. There were many features of fashionable life which pre- vented woman from becoming the watchful and effective guardian which she ought to be of the sanitary condition of her home. Woman's use of narcotic and alcoholic stimulants was no longer limited to individual cases. Every physician in this city knew it was quite prevalent and was producing harvest of death. Mothers could not SOW tares and reap wheat for their children. The doctor trusted that the public instructor in the year 22S6-fOur hundred years hence-for the purpose of showing how deficient women in the nineteenth century were in guarding the health of their children would produce Chicago daily paper dated February p, 1886. From this he would read the mortality report that fifty per cent. of the deaths were those of chil- dren under five years of age, and the equally suggestive fact that the glass manufacturers of the United States made ten million nursing bottles during 1885. The philosopher of that day would read the advertisements and come to the conclusion that the manufacture of food for infants was a gigantic Ma tional enterprise in 1886. If he would put these facts together he would de- tect the causes which sweep so many infants into an untimely grave. It was the fruit of the American mothers re- fusal to nurse her children. If the thousands of little sleepers in Calvary, Graceland and Rosehill could be given voices there would be a terrible arraign- ment of the women of fashion of this city. The doctor said the mother could not afford to accept the doctrine of the survival of the fittest; that would roll us back to the barbarism of the four teenth century. In this country forty babies out of every hundred born died in their infancy; in Norway only eigh- teen out of one hundred died. If wom- en would give less attention to their dressmakers, to theaters and society events and more attention to their babies it would be better for the babies. Sanitary law should have its birth in the home, and woman should be the homes archangel. That she was not was mans fault as much as hers.
 The hall was filled with ladies, who heartily applauded the doctor. Chicago Tribune.

NEW GUINEA CURIOS.

Collection of Utmost Importance to Eth
 noIogical Students.
 There was opened in Berlin not long ago an exhibition of the collections made by Dr. Finsch in the course of ex- plorations undertaken on behalf of the German New Guinea Company. The collections are described as being of the utmost importance for purposes of eth nological study, and this for two req sons In the first place, Dr. Finsch has travelled through districts where hitherto the white mans foot has never trod; and, secondly, the indigenous arts of the island are rapidly being corrupted and debased by contact with the machine made articles of European origin, which have begun to find their way into the country. The inhabitants of New Guinea are ignorant of the use of iron; their tools are of stone and mussel-shell, but with these they can shape their canoes, household utensils and weapons so accurately, and ornament them so artistically, as to prove themselves race capable of con- siderable development. One of the most interesting features of the exhibition is a collection of twenty-two casts of differ ent tyyes of feature, which were actually taken direct from the faces of the na, tives. The specimens exhibited afford evidence of the existence of considerable trade between New Guinea and the ad- jacent Bismarck Archipelago, whose in. habitants, however, appear to be by no means as far advanced in civilization as their neighbors.

 "I don't find it necessary"
 "How do you arrange it?"
 "If farmer reports a loss 1 ask him what else he could expect with his crop scattered all over the farm. Then I show him clause in the policy that he hadn't seen before in which he is instructed to take his crop in every night and put it under the bed where it will be safe.''
