There was little sympathetic study
of nature then under any form.
Angling for trout and the fOx-hunt
were the only pursuits that could sug-
gest the eager search for rocks and
plants and bugs, that is now carried
on in the fields and woods. This newly
awakened taste for out-Of-door study,
and this curious observation of nature
is reflected in the literature OF the
time, and is often commented upon by
writers.
In his recent life of Gouverneur Nor

LINEN DRESS GOODS.
Fabrics Whose Goodness Is Grateful to the
Senses In Hot Weather.

Fabrics Whose Goodness Is Grateful to the
Senses In Hot Weather.
Since the times when purple and
fine linen" were the acme of elegance
in apparel. linen has retained place
as the pleasantest of all material for
summer wear. notwithstanding the
countless array of diaphanOus and
airy fabrics in cotton, wooden and silks.
There is nothing ''clingingH about
them. 1t is a fabric whose ''coOl re-
serve" is grateful to the senses in hot
weather, and if it becomes limp and
discouraged with wear. it can readily
be restored in the laundry and made 20
assume its first freshness.
Linen ginghams are charming for
morning wear, and their simplicity
may be relieved with embroidery and
ribbon so that they become really
dressy. The newest goods in this line,
however, are the linen damasses
woven like gingham. but in designs re
sembling print, and which-also like
gingham-are not all linen. but with
the colored threads OF cotton. Stripes,
checks and fancy plaids in gray, wood
color. brown. blue. red, and several
pretty color combinations, predomi-
nate, yet the effect when made up is
quite as pleasing and satisfactory as
the figured goods O. seasons past.
The woven linens are also in stripes
an6 plaids of colors eontrasted with
white. but these arc all linen, and are
the most durable of all similar fabrics.
These are used not only for morning
dresses, but for boys shirt-waists and
blouses, and for this purpose are pre-
ferred to the figured linen cambrics
and percales, although the latter are
used, especially in dark shades of blue.

Paris is making preparations for u spc-
cial Jubilee of her own A few weeks
hence Il will be fifty years since the 1lrst
train steamed out of Paris and reached
the suburb of St. Germain. The guard
of that train IL still alive and has strange
accounts to give of the Journey and OF the
preparations for it. 1t seems to have
been scarcely such n triumph for France,
after all. The engine, of course, was
English, and the driver and stoker were
English too. The engine ran on four
wheels, and was u singular contrast 10
present locomotives, but the first class
carriages were almost of the same pattern
as that still In use on the line. The Sec
ond class were open, furnished with cur
tains to keep off the sun, and beyond tine
curtains nets were stretched to prevent
too curious travellers from losing their
balance and their lives.
French taste asserted itself In the de-
partments Of costume and music. The
guards had u uniform of blue, and gold
buttons, and were supplied with hunting
horns. Great Importance was attached 10
the horns, which were to represent the
cornets used by the positions of the mail
coaches. For week before the first
Journey the guards carefully rehedrsed u
fanfare, which was to be played with
great spirit on the departure and just be-
fore the arrival of the train. They have
changed many things on French lines in
fifty years, and among Others have sub
stituted railway whistles for hunting
horns.--Bostou Transcript.

Perhaps collisions ut sea between great
steamships win become entirely impos.
siblc some day; but it will not be until
the travelling public gets over its present
hurry. II steamships came to II fun stop
the moment tho fog settled down on them,
or just as soon MS another fog horn than
their own was heard, there would not be
any serious chance Of their coming to-
gcther. BY n code of signals under such
circumstances one vessel might even ad-
vance slowly while the other stood ready
to back, until it was certain that they had
passed each other. But this would be
slow work, and the growing of the pas
senSers at the delay would probably
drive the commander to suicide or vio-
lence. No, the public itself is not yet
quite willing to travel safely. New York
