Novelties in Autumn Wraps.

In most cases the new fancy wraps
for the autumn have the fronts con-
tinued down in two long panels almost
to the bottom of the dress skirt Com
posed Of velvet, or of fine wool striped
with straight bands Of gimp in silk
cord or beading, they are applicable to
the early fall season, and will look
fresh and fashionable still later on in
the year. Some of these garments
form simple cape over the shoulders,
and are finished off at the throat by
straight military collar, covered with
gimp or by a broad Directoire collar of
velvet open in front, and widening. to-
wards the top. Black velvet is by far
the better choice for these wraps for
thoses whose means are not unlimited,
as the garment will then look well
with any costume. For those who can
afford a variety Of wraps, deep copper
color, moss green, golden brown, pansy
color, olive or mahogany are the
popular shades. these often nearly
covered with network of silk and
bead garnitures of deeper color. The
mantles are either lined with shot
surah, or with a plain corresponding,
rather than contrasting, shade of
repped silk.-N Y Post. Il,

UNDERGROUND WATERS.

The Important Part They Play in the For
nation of Minerals.
The mode Of formation, as Button
said, the genesis of minerals is one of
the most interesting questions of their
history. But the problem could not be
approached until biologists had fur
nished precise data on the conditions
of their bearing. Satisfactory solu-
lions have recently been obtained in
the case of certain number of min
eral species. Synthetic experiment,
placing itself in the circumstances that
seem to have presided at their forma-
ton, has succeeded in reproducing
them, with their crystalline forms, and
all their essential characteristics, and
has thus completed the demonstration
of their origin. By means of this
method of demonstration, we have been
able to ascertain that many minerals
are due to the action of subterranean
waters. From the most ancient epochs,
these waters have circulated through
the crest of the earth, where they have
left, at multitude of points, signs re-
vealing the part they have played, and
the course they have taken, even more
clearly than contemporary phenomena
have done.
The sedimentary beds, formed like
the deposits which the sea spreads
every day in the bottom Of, its basin,
are often distinguished from one an
other, even at first sight, by certain
exterior characters The differences
are for the most part produced by the
action of subterraneana waters, as is
demonstrated by the animal and vege-
table fossils, which we're for long
time designated as petpifactions, or,
rather, by the ehemicalachanges which
these fossilized bodies have. evidently
undergone. 81
Here, shells and corals, showing
forms perfectly preserved down to
their slightest details, are no longer
composed of carbonate of lime, as they.
certainly were during the life of the
animal to which they belong, but are
essentially different Substances, quartz
having entirely taken the place of the
calcium carbonate. There are also
other minerals, such as pyrites and
sulphate of baryta, which have been
penetrated and crystalized within the
cavities which the bodies of these in
vertebrates occupied. G. a.

The statistical reports show some

MISCELLANEOUS.


AN analytical chemist, of Cincin-
natl, for sanitary purposes advocates
the boiling of milk before using, and
says his own five-year-old daughter has
never drunk cup that has not been
boiled.
There Is a man in Atchison who
builds an addition to his house every
time daughter gets married, in antici-
patton, he says. of the time when she
will bring her husband and children
home to live with him.
San Francisco claims it takes less
police force in proportion to popula-
tion to preserve order in that city than
it does in New York, Philadelphia,
Chicago, Brooklyn, St. Louis, Boston,
Baltimore or Cincinnati. Yet the orig
inal population of that city came from
every portion of the world.
"A Philadelphia man one day swal-
lowed his teeth while eating fruit at a
street stand. 1t took d button hook,
policeman and file of men, with
power to win any tug of war in the
country, to dislodge the distressing
impeachment from the mans throat
The policeman did the best prelimin-
airy work with his vigorous humping
of the victims back, though the crowd
grew loud and indignant over what
seemed an outrage. They did not
know the gentleman had bitten off
more than he could swallow
In the course of a funeral sermon
in Stringtown the other day the colored
minister made frequent use of the
Scripture, 1.-The quick and the dead
and every time he used it he would
cast his eye toward the doctor in the
case, against waom he had q grudge,
anyhow. and say 1.-The quack and the
dead. This was nearly as bad q
twisting of tie meaning of the text as
that of a horaer newspaper which al
luded to the survivors and the victims
of a lurid bar-room pistol matinee as
the quick and the dead, respectively.
"A Maine fishing schooner recently
caught on the Georges Banks, on a
halibut trawl, a queer fish. Itweighed
seventy-fve pounds, and is described
as being 'about as large as the top of
a hogshead, and almost as broad as
long When first taken from the
water it was of bright red color and
marked with silver spots, varying in
size from that of a three-cent piece to
that of a silver dollar. After the fish
had been out of the water while, the
red became purple, except on the fins.
which retained their vivid hue. The
fins, three in number, were small in
proportion to the body, and the tail
was short and broad.
What b-e-a-u-tiful peaches said
an old lady as she stopped at a stall in
the market and admired a basket of
early peaches. They were covered
with pink gauze and looked very tempt
ing. The old lady bought the peaches
and took them home. The next day
she appeared again at the stall and
showed the stallkeeper a small piece
of pink net. DO you keep that kind
of yelling for salep" she asked. The
stallkeeper told her that he did not.
''Well," she said, 'when I got. them
peaches home they were small and
sour and green, and / thought if I
could get some of that stuff that made
them look SO pretty and plump in the
basket I'd wear it myself. If il would
improve me as much as it did the
peaches folks would think I'd found
the Eliza of life. "-Detroit Free Press.
