 PARIS, July 5.-The American Art Students Association received the flag which was sent to the association by President Harrison. Mir. Reid, the United States Minister, made the pre- sentation. MT. Anderson, president of the association, delivered an oration, and Mir. Reid and Gen. Foster replied.
 There were 650 guests present. Rain prevented the ceremony from being held in the gardens, so it was trans ferred to the association's rooms. The rooms were too small and were muc h overcrowded. MT. Anderson expressed the students sense of Mir. Reid's kind ness in presenting with his own hands flag which recalled to them their country, and he charged Mir. Reid to tran smit the students thanks to the generous donor of the flag. Luncheon was served, and afterward concert was held,

 BERLIN, July 5.-The American rifemsn gave brilliant banquet at the Kaiserof last night. Mir. Weber presided. Among the guests were United States Minister Phelps and wife, Walter Damrosch and wife, ex-Comptroller John Jay Knox. the Rev. Dr. Stuckenburg, pastor of the American Church, and wife, the leading American residents, and a number of noted German marksmen.
 Mir. Phelps, speaking to the toast to President Harrison. said that America's great danger arose from her immense material prosperity. President Harri- son ruled the richest and strongest na- tion on the globe. From his lofty station he saw more clearly than any one else the full sweep of this incredi- ble prosperity. He was neither dazzled nor shaken. He kept his boise rugged and firm as Washington, stunning the tempting paths of popularity, keeping tn Puritan simplicity of our fathers days, and having no aspiration, except to show that man was greater than his surroundings, that character was greater than success.
 Referring to estimates that $150, 1000, was spent by Americans yearly while travelling in Europe, he said that al though nothing the Custom House can show was a return reward, yet there was a certain reward in the ample knowledge and experience gained which these Americans turn to use. "Any one of them," he said, "can learn enough in Germany alone to pay his part of these millions"
 Referring to the American home life as the sweetest and purest on earth, MT. | Phelps said he thought, however, that the travellers present would find that the Germans made home lite fuller, taking their families into their pleas ures and amusements, and many taking them into their business. Americans Insisted on amusing themselves ex- pensively, but Germans, if they could not hear Patti or Strauss, were con- tented with hearing an open air con- cert on the Wilhelmplatz for "funf
 ofennigs." Travellers looking about
 .hem learn of economies in pleasure and
 ,heerfulness with small means. They also learn of the love of art and na- ture, from which a German beggar got nearly as much pleasure as a German | prince

THE best characterization of the in famous force bill is that of the Hon James McCreary of Kentucky. In his speech in the house of representatives he said "The bill is one of the most inn portant and far-reaching and dangerous bills ever submitted to the congress of the United States. It's provisions are audacious, arbitrary, despotic and des- perate. In many respects it is worse than the so-called force bill" which was so gallantly and successfully op- posed by the Hon Samuel J. Randall and his associates in the Forty congress. That bill was the result of feelings and animosities engendered by terrible civil war. This bill is the result of greed for office and desire to perpetuate republi- can rule. Never before has the republi- can majority of the house of representa-. tlves so openly and boldly attempted to subvert the rights of the states and trample on the powers reserved to the states and to the people respectively"

CARE OF THE HANDS.

shirley Dare Explains How to Keep Them
 Smooth and White.
 Soak Il-kept hands in hot bat thing soap suds with half teaspoonful of borax in the water, which acts wonder fully in removing grime. The hotter the water the sooner it will remove grime and old particles. I think the use of a stiff brush on the back of the hands, as we'll as the use of vaseline at night, fosters the growth of hair. Those who have used the rubber hand brushes will never want any thing else. Rubber clings to the surface with a sort of suction, and carries away every trace of grime with it. The common washing powders of different names quickly bleach the hands, but leave them harsh and dry unless rubbed with lemon juice or vinegar and water. A strong solution of oXalic acid should be kept to remove deep stains which result from cutting fruits or vegetables, though there are few which resist washing soda.
 An English recipe for keeping hands smooth, which is two tablespOonfuls of lemon juice, one of glycerine and the | same of almond oil-colorless oil by the way, for experience lends reason to the idea that most oils and vaseline dis color and darken the hands. En pdsSant, hot foot baths nightly, and purgatives with coarse bread, are the best regime to secure white hands.
 Honey balsam is a nice preparation English ladies' maids compound to whit. on and soften hands. It is made of eight tablespoonfuls of pale strained honey heated gently, and two table spoonfuls of vegetable glycerine melted into it; when cold, two tablespoonful of rectifed spirit and three drams oi pure citric acid are added, with few drops of any rich essence to perfume. Dissolve the acid crystals in the spirit before pouring into the other mixture. and bottle at once.-Shirley Dare.

The reason why woman is afraid of a mouse is a profound mystery-indeed. it has never been very clearly proven that she is But some women are constantly in such Q nervous, irritable condition that the slightest thing annoys and startles them. The cause of this unfortunate state of affairs is usually some functional derangement; some distress ing or painful irregularity, some derange- ment or peculiar weakness incident to her sex: or, it may be due to inflammation, ul- ceration or displacement, of some of the pelvic viscera, or to other organic lesions peculiar to her sex.
