THE CENTENNIAL EXPOSITION.
which Opens In Cincinnati July 4.


No event of the past decade has created
as much interest in the whole country as
the coming of the Centennial Exposition OF
the Ohio Valley and Central States, which
opens its doors in Cincinnati on the nations
birthday July ~, to continue for one hun
bred days and nights-a celebration in honor
Of the one hundredth anniversary of the
settlement of the Northwest Territory.
Unlimited means have been placed at the
disposal of the managers by the enterpr1s-
ing business element of the Queen City, and
nothing is being left undone that will con-
duce to the success of the undertaking In
stead of local--as some suppose--it is a
National event, made so by the hearty CO.
operation on the part of dozen OF the chief
States in the Union, and the announcement
given il by the fact that "Uncle SAM in
lends to make an exhibit Of his own of the
treasures stored away in Washington City
an appropriation for the moving and care
Of which has been recommended by Con-
yressional Committee to whom the matter
was referred.
The guarantee fund of one million and
fifty thousand dollars, which the Board of
Commissioners have at their command, has
enabled them to provide magnificent quar-
ters in which to display the mass OF articles
already offered, and these, in conjunction
with the permanent building in which nu-
nervous Expeditions on smaller scale have
been held, and which cost over one million
iollars, will give To this affair better facili-
lies than were ever enjoyed by any thing of
he kind ever held in this country, not ex-
,epting the famous Exposition in Philadel-
ohia in 1875 The area Of exhibiting space
viii be about 100000 square feet. The tenn
oorary buildings, when ready for occu-
pancy, will have cost no less than quarter
IF million of dollars, and are models of
architecture, combining all the elements
accessory for the uses to which they will
De put.
The Exposition has been advertised for
he past year in q mastery manner, and
here is no section of the country that has
lailed to hear of the great event. Applica-
ions for exhibiting space have been re-
,eived in abundance from every cline, and
here seems to be no reason TO doubt its en-
ire success, both artistically and fnan-
ually.

off at the elbow, with additional
loose ones below matching the vest,
than the usual close sleeve. A still
more fanciful arrangement consists of
a fichu gilet of crepe lisse, silk or
velvet Jacket, with long points in
'front.' over which is simulated by
bands of trimming a second jacket of
the Figaro order, with pointed epau-
let's of the same covering the top of the
sleeves. The variations on this theme
are endless, but the above are the
principal outlines of a very popular
style of corsage.
For The coming gay summer season
are in process of construction many
new gowns modelled after the lovely
''art toilets" imported and worn the
past winter. These are composed
chiefly of soft creamy crepes de chine.
China silks, foulards in Pompadour
designs, crepe lisse textiles, stamped
with pale, faint flowers and foliage
and India tissues of various kinds;
these made up on soft undressed silks
and occasionally over slips of India

scription, designed for evening wear
at Newport and Saratoga are of
pale apricot golden green, crushed
strawberry, primrose yellow. Persian
mauve cream white over gold, pink
over silver and like delicate combina-
tions. The gowns are made with
artistically flowing draperies falling
from one shoulder with pearl or silver
chatelaincs at the waist, with orna-
ments to correspond on skirt and
bodice, the latter cut pointed in the
neck, with short or flowing sleeves. as
may be preferred. Another popular
fancy is the Pompadour gown of
flower brocaded satin, opening broad
ly over a petticoat of old lace or vel
vet with waistcoat to match fastened
with gem-set buttons of gold or silver.

DANGEROUS HABITS.
How to Avoid the Transmission of Con

How to Avoid the Transmission of Con-
tagious ID iseases.
If all could realize how easily GER
tain disc ases are transmitted there are
some habits which would be less fire.
quently INDUCED. While riding in
the street car one often observes ladies
remove coins from their purses and
hold them between their lips, while
some trifling duty about their toilet,
such as buttoning the gloves. is per-
formed. If those who do this could
see how carefully physicians disinfect
their hands, and even the money taken
from certain patients. they would
never again be guilty of that mos
atrocious custom. Common decency
demands that the mouth be restrict
ed to the purposes for which
nature intended it. and the
hands be allowed to do their
work unaided by it. The bust
ness man who receives a letter
with a stamp inclosed and attached to
the corner, should be careful when he
mails his reply that his own lips do
not moisten the stamp so recently at
the lips of another, and. possibly. a
perfect stranger. Contagion is very
easy of transmission; its germs are
everywhere. The hands of all, both
clean and filthy, touch many things in
common. One should therefore be ex-
tremely careful, after such contact
not to carry the fingers to the mouth.
One author has very wisely said:
THE only safe rule. in fact, is to be
as careful of the hands as if one were
a denhst-never to put them near the
mouth without having first washed
them" This preeaution entails some
trouble. and yet may often avert the
evil consequences which follow con-
tagion. Journal Of Health
