Gloves for Stylish Women.

Tan, gray, black and white gloves
are the only colors used in fashion,
able woman's outfit, and it is quite pos
sible for her to be we'll gloved with all
her various kinds of gloves in tan
shades, very dark tan-color being used
for tho street in the daytime, and very
light tan for evening. Gray gloves are
worn with gray dresses, as are black
also; white gloves are now fashionable
with white dresses, but light tan
shades are oftener used even by BRIDE
maids. The undressed kid gloves of
light quality with corded backs are the
fashionable choice for visiting and car
riage toilettes, but heavier kid gloves
have wide stitching of selt-color or of
black, and are most used for morning
walking toilettes and with tailor gowns
OF cloth. Some of these are fastened
by four large gilt buttons, while others
are.jn the, sac shape, without an open
ing ut the wrist Evening gloves are
as long as ever, and again reach to the
lower edge of the short sleeves; they
arc in mousquetaire shape, and must
be quite plain on the back, being very
simply corded there. The drawn
seams" with edges OF the kid show
ing, are on stylish gloves, and are
quite new on black gloves, showing
white edges of the kid. Ladies' riding
gloves are cow. "tilburied," that is,
faced double inside the palms and fin
gers, just like those worn by men, and
they may be short enough to require
but one button to fasten them, or long
enough to require four buttons. -Har-

Sun Energy in Growth.

The director of the Royal Deaf.
Mute Asylum at Copenhagen has
shown that children's growth varies
greatly in different parts. of the year,
the rate of increase in the weight OF
boys being three times as great from
the first Of August to the middle of
December as from the middle of De-
cember to the end of April, and most
OF the gain Of this second period be-
ing lost between the end of April and
the end of July. These fluctuations
do not correspond to local changes OF
temperature or to changes OF sea-
son, but instead appear to coin
eide with fluctuations in the average
temperature of the whole globe. The
evidence thus far collected is taken
as an indication, therefore, that some
unknown energy of growth" comes
to US from the sun with the heat
rays, separates from them, and,
unaffected by wind or weather.
causes uniform fluctuations in the
growths of all organic life.-ArkGn.

How Letters Are Disinfected.

Letters from stricken sections are
fumigated in novel way, so that
there is little or no chance for the dis
case being brought Northward. The
letters are stopped when they reach
the quarantine lines Each letter Is
put under machine with long arm
attached, and this is provided with lit
tie teeth punctured at the ends. A
powder that is used for fumigating
purposes Is forced through the arm
and down through the teeth. The
arm comes down on each letter. and
while the little teeth are perforating
the letter, the powder is blown in be-
tween the sheets, dIsinfecting the let
ter thoroughly Then t is forwarded
to the person to whom IL IS addressed.
Some. complaint has been heard OF
damage to letters, but so long as they
remain legible n little disGgurement
should be welcomed as a PROOF OF
protection. --Amer,cn Analyst

Old Foes Fraternizing.
New York SIM

At Delmonico' lust previous to the
! Wyndom breakfast, General Sherman was
seated in one of the reception rooms talk;
to Mr. Charles Wyndom and Col. Edward
| L. Alfriend, of Richmond. The editor Of
newspaper passed through the room
and General Sherman nodded to him and
remarked to his companions that the
editor was drummer boy under him in
Shiloh.
such is the whirligig of time, Gener-
al. said Mr.. Wyndom.
why sir responded the old General,
there were four Governors of states who
were bughlers under me, and before the
war was over they had risen to the rank of
Maj Generals.
1T is certainly remarkable" said Mr..
Wyudom, that men who entered the army
in such humble way should rise to the
| rank of Major-Feneral5 in one war.
My dear sir. said General Sherman.
''you must remember that our war was
one of the greatest wars that was ever
fought. 1t was fight between people of
the same race You know that when
Greek meets Greek then comes the tug of
war and that was true of us. We had a
determined enemy, and by the way, there
sits one Of them now. over there. and the
General pointed to Colonel Thomas 2.
Ochiltree, who was sitting on settee with
his clutches resting across his arm.
General, | am also one of those fellows,
like my Texas friend, said Colonel Al

Where did you serve, sir?" asked Cen
eral Sherman.
Il served first on the staff of Stone

Lee

became very pale and ghaStly. We were
astonlshed that some of them did not drop
senseless on the floor. While the party
near the wall had been going through these
gyratlons another party had seated them
| selves on praying carpet and kept TO the
old refrain, sometimes geSticulating at the
! 4.ore active band
At last it looked as though the frantics
intended to shake their heads off if they
could, and their cultural spasms became
more disgusting. An old man repeated
some sentence, and the others yelled
'1ahu so hercely that couple of ladies
retired in terror from the gallery, though
their guide tried to persuade them that
their was no danger But the ceremonies
were finished. and the exhausted devotees
dropped upon the floor to recover their
breath and strength. 1t was poor cause
IN which to waste man, but they believe
that paradise is their reward
After the rites were finished very aged
sheik came In, and stood in the middle of
of the floor. Then the people came IN,
bringing children with them to be healed
of their maiadies. 4 little child was
placed on the floor. and: the sheik put his
foot on it, which seemed to afford the
mother great deal of comfort. A cripple
then took the same position on the floor,
and the old sheik actually stepped upon
him with both feet. The patient did not
cry, or make other signs, and | have no
doubt he believed the medicine would do
him good. Others were simply touched,
or treated in some other manner, and all
of them seemed to be entirely satisfied with
the treatment.
Our party left the monastery and so did
those who had been ON the stage the
action it was still raining and the poor
dogs were still exercising their ingenuity
without success to warm and dry themselves.
If the Sultan is not disposed to abolish

their tails off close behind the ears.

REWARDS OF INTEGRITY.
What Small Inventors Have Done in Max.
ing Fortunes.

The rubber-tip at the end of ead-pencils
has yielded 100000 in England
A large fortune has been reaped by a
miner who invented metal rivet or eyeet
at each end of the mouth of coat or trousers
pockets to resist the strain caused by the
carriage of pieces of ore or heavy tools.
In a recent action it TRANSFERRED in EVIL
dence that the inventor of the metal plates
used to protect soles and heels from wear
sold upward of twelve million plates in
1879, and in 1887 the number reached
$4,000, 900, producing realized profits of
FL. $50, 600
As large sum as was ever obtained for
any invention was enjoyed by the inventor
of the inverted glass bell to hang over gas
to protect ceilings from being blackened,
and scarcely less lucrative patent was
that for simply putting emery-powder on
cloth
Frequently time and circumstances are
wanted before an invention is appreciated,
says the Inventor, but it will be seen that
patience is well rewarded, for the inventor
of the roller-skate made over 81 900, 900.
Notwithstanding the fact that his patent
had nearly expired before its value was
ascertained.
The gimlet-pointed screw has produced
more wealth than most silver mines, and
the American who first thought of putting
copper tips to children S shoes is as we'll off
as if his father had left him 100000 in
United States bonds
Upward of $4,000 year was made by
the inventor of the common needle-threader.
To the foregoing might be added thousands
of trifing but useful articles from which
handsome incomes are derived or for
which large sums have been paid.
Few inventions pay better than popular
patented toys. A clergyman realized
$1,000 a week by the invention of a strange
little plaything to be seen for a long time
in every toyshOp window and even the
streets of London.
That favorite American toy, return
ball "a wooden ball with an elastic
attached yielded the patentee an income
equal to $4,000 year, and an Income of
no less than SIS, 900 per annum to the in
ventor of the dancing Jim Crow The
invention of Pharaoh serpents, a toy
much in vogue some years ago, was the
outcome of some chemical experiments,
and brought the inventor more than $50
900.
The sale of the little wooden figure,
John Gilpin,' was incredibly large for
many years, and very ingenious toy
known as the wheel of life is said to
have pre- duced upward of $500, 900 profits
to its inventor.
One of the most successful of modern
toys has been the chameleon top" the
sale of which has been enormous. The
field of invention is not only vast and
varied, but it is open to everybody with
out respect or favor of any kind to sex or
age, station or means. The merest trihe
may be the key to fortune. if it be an
article that the public actually wants in
great numb ers.

Lost Their Opportunity.

Daily Inter Mountain: 1t is great
pity, on behalf of democratic ascendancy
in Montana, that the board of apportion-
ment, consisting of the governor, the
chief Justice and the Territorial secre-
tary, didn't play their game for all there
was in it. They went just far enough to
get all the blame for political unfairness,
but not far enough for their party to
reap all the benefit possible. Of course
they did great deal in offsetting the
strength Of the republican precincts by
tacking onto them democratic precincts
of sufficient strength to overbalance the
republican vote wherever possible, re-
gardless of whether the precincts natural
~ belonged together or not. But see what
an opportunity they missed. If they had
only gone into it on noble scale, taken
the strong republican counties like Sill
yer Bow, Deer Lodge, Lewis and Clarke
Beaverhead and others, and attached
Wilder's Landing to one, Whoop-up to
another, Wolf Point to another, Tongue
River Crossing to another, and SO on
down the list, what a grand victory fol
the Montana style of democracy might
have been made sure!
