There is an outbreak of smallpox
in Portland. There are seven cases
now in thepest house and three deaths
have resulted. Iu view of the great

too great care cannot be exercised by

vent the spread of the disease to this
city. Vaccination should be prompt

Cheaper Than a Funeral.

New York Cor Philadelphia Record.l
New York humanitarians figure out
that it would be cheaper to transport
children to rural homes and keep them
than it costs to bury them. Tx ep-
tionally bad conditions of infantile life
in the metropolis result in an annual
loss of o,42 children. The annual
losses from con9uerable child mortality
are S $40, 200 The interest on this
loss. it is estimated, would carry into
rural surroundings all the tenement
house children VINO die under years of
age.
The financial loss of childhood is not
the only loss. In 1888 every tWalit tn
commitment by the New York courts
was a girl under 20 or boy under Il,
in all 4, 172, to say nothing of the large
number lodged in correctional institu-
tons. The secretary of the National
Prison association says four-ffths of the
convicts of the country were born in
large towns and cities. The argument
deduce is that it will pay to transplant
that portion of city population which
sinks below certain level of morality
and ability to earn. but host Of ques
tons and difficulties at once arise.

Iu5lic Morality in Germany.

JeH' y June : Berlin Letter.
The official residences add much to the
imposing exterior of the city. and they
enable the Official to maintain his position
without resorting TO petty tricks and

ruption. Indeed, the standard of public
morality is said TO be, and seems to be in
reality, very high. A man who would
steal from an Individual, that Individual
his own mother. would not steal from the
government The lowest depth of de-
pravity is reached when a man will de
fraud his country-his fatherland; nor
could he ever recover his standing socially
or in business way if he had once com
mitted any fraudulent act, for it is con

RICH LACE in ANTWERP.
The Genuine ArticIe-A Young Lady's
Treasure Cherished HeirIoOms-
~ q r,;.o

[COr n. o. Picayune.l
Lace in quantity is never seen IN the
street in Antwerp, unless 1t is worn by
English or Americans; for no Antwerp
lady would wear her rich lace i'll the
street or allow herself to appear in a
cheap imitation. These rules still hold
good, though there is less rigidity than
formerly, and young girls wear con-
traSts and their mammaS' designs in
form and fabric which they would not
have dreamed of ten years ago. he
domestic and social habits, howe Ter,
hold good and are maintained as mat
ter of pride by the genuine ladies Of
Antwerp
One Of these was only child and would
naturally have inherited a magnificent
collection Oflace, gathered and inherited
by her mother. But she was not in
clined to work with the needle, and re-
belled against the necessary condition
imposed, of learning how to mend and
actually make lace, so as to be able to
keep it in perfect condition. Her
mother did not force her. but simply
told her that the lace in that case would
never be hers, but would be left to some
members Of the family able and willing
to entertain" and care for it. This
threat was sufficient to induce the
young lady to fulfill her mothers
wishes, and now she is not only the pos
SCISSOR of one Of the finest private cOllec-
tiOns of lace in Antwerp, both modern
and antique, but can repair any o. 1t so
that it Is exactly the same as before.
A lace as ma e in Antwerp is very
very desirable possession. 1t is not cut up
and wasted from the piece, as with US,
but an accurate pattern is sent and the
dress is outlined from it and the pattern
wrought in accordance to cost. The
lace pieces for bOnnets, fans, parasols,
and every article of the toilet for which
lace is used are all made and finished
upon the edge in the same way and are
beautiful and permanent possessions.
The cost for a real lace dress is not more
than one covered with imitation lace is
with US, but the difference in elegance
and finish, in permanent beauty, can
not be put into words. 1t is difference
in the actual morality and esthetic in
fuence Of lifetime.
An Antwerp lady of the middle or
business class looks forward to the ac-
QUESTION of such a dress as New Ork
lady of the same condition in life might
to the acquisition of Sealskin cloak.
But the Antwerp lady more frequently
gets the dress than her New Ork sister
the cloak; for the reason, probably, that
less money is spent in Antwerp on
trifles and on the costly articles of
street attire, bonnets, parasols, and,
above all, gloves, which are such an i'm
portant and costly item in America
Besides, the men know that a lace dress
means something; it is uivalent to
their dress coat. 1t will be worn at the
great family reunions and anniversaries,
over all black, over color, with silk
sleeves under them, with lace sleeves
alone; in short, with slight additional
expense it will make several dresses,
and be great economy as we'll as ele-
gance.

Utility of Tears.
Scientific Exchange. J

The utility of tears to animals in gen
eral, and particularly to those which are
exposed much to the dust, such as
birds which live amid the wind, is easy
to understand. The eye would soon be
dirtied and blocked up had not nature
provided this friendly, everhoWing
stream to wash and refresh it. a very
little fluid is necessary to keep the eye
always clear and clean. But here, again,
we must admire the wOndrous mechan-
ism which works the human body; for
it is to be observed that, when through
some accident or hurt the eyeball has
need of more water than usual to
cleanse it, nature at once turns on a
more abundant supply OF tears.
