articles of merchandise advertised.
But there are exceptions occasionally
and noteworthy exception is the Gel
ebrated Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
This now universally known medicine
has been advertised in the Graphic for
four or five years, but not until recent

its wonderful efficacy, which has come
about through the prevailing influenza
and the stubborn cough that has SO Of
ten attended it. In the writer's family
this medicine has on several occasions
this winter, cured cough that hatlled
any and all other remedies; and the
number OF families in kimball and vi

siastic kite-nyers in America arc
TO be found in Terryvillc, Conn, and
they have introduced a novel idea that
will probably DO tried elsewhere. The
idea was evolved during the fall and
winter of last year. and this spring it
was successfully carried out. A. An
drows (captain), Arthur and Leon Bun
rell, Wallace Cook and John II. Dciter
joined themselves into club called the
a. H. c. Club, tho name being formed
OF the initials of the members, and set
about making mammoth kite ten feet
high.
They finished it. and taking it out,
set tho ncighborhood stirring; members
fiocllcd in to join, full OF IDEAS Middle
town followed suit, and the craze has.
become general, number Of contests
being arranged at various dates, the
prizes to be awarded to the kites carry
ing up the most yards of string.
Tho Terryville boys are making
great efforts to come in ahead.
and have just finished kite
seventeen feet high, twelve feot
wide, covered with fifty-four yards of
canvass, and weighing fifty pounds.
Tho tail is ono hundred and FORTY foot
long. The frame is boltcd together
with iron bolts and the canvas is at
tacncd to the franc on tho hoolS-and
eye principle, so that it can DO taken
off and folded up for transportation.
Tho cord is as thick as a clothcs-line. it
takes six members to "soar" tho kite,
and it is expected to run out two thou
sand fcot of limo when they got accus-
toned to handling it, and get tho bal
last right on tho tail. At the trial trip
it answered every expectation, and then
genius proposed somo fun. A stiff
breeze was blowing, and a light road
wagon was run out in which five young
men seated themselves; tho kite-rope
was attached, and the conveyance began

dress every year. However. to dress
well 1T is necessary to feel the pulse Of
fashion," which means to know what
French people arc making and selling
and wearing. Undoubtedly tho aorta
of the whole arterial system of fashion
is located in Paris, and every pulse
throb is felt throughout tho universe
To be fully convinced of this fact, one
need only to pass behind the scenes OF
any OF our large importing houses and
inspect tho novelties from the leading
Paris designers, and which can be dcs-
iignatcd by nothing less exalted than
''creations.'
Elaboration is carried out most OK
'tensively in tca-gowns or housc-gowns,
(which are becoming moro popular every
day. They arc so graceful and hide so
many deficiencies. One beautiful ex-
ample among few fresh things that
have just arrived, is tea-gown rich as
regards materials, but quite simple in
shape. 1t is in old rose bengalinc,
and the front displays pretty drapcry
iof creamy lace gathered into pointed
band of gold embroid cry at the waist
The bodice in front is fashioned after
tho manner of tho zouave.
The zouave, like the poor, We have
ALWAYS with us; but it is so jaunty and
becoming that it is difficult to let go
easily
Another pretty houscgown of Paris
make is illustrated, and is most artis-
tically draped in pale pink lowered
silk, with crepe do chino front in Greek
style, and rovers Of plain silk of Il
slightly deeper rose tint This also

man and boy knows what a kite is. and
how to fly one; but few are aware of the
extraordinary progress made in connec-
ton with the kite in recent years, and
there may be some of the rising gene
ration to whom the making of q kite is
sealed book, and who arc too far away
from town to buy one to suit them
The secret of making one that will fly
all lies in he balance. TO make a big
one, get some we'll seasoned ash and
cut from it two good stout laths an inch
broad, ono quarter inch thick and three
feet long. Cross them like the letter
y, and across the joint lay another lath
about two feet long and bind them firm
ly into place. Now run stout cord
from tip to tip all around the frame
All that remains to be done is to cover
it with strong, thin paper.
In doing this mind that any seams
are neatly joined, and extend right
across the kite to keep the balance true.
A seam on one side and not on the other
will spoil ID Good -four paste is tho
best material for fastening the paper
The kite is now made and wants string
ing. From tho two top points, the two
side points and the joint of the laths in
the middle, run light cords six feet in
length, and knot them together; then
attach tho flying string to this. The
tail, every ono knows about. Also the
fun to be had in cutting four-inch
square pieces OF writing paper putting
them on the lower part of the line,
when the kite is in the air, and letting
them run as messengers" to tho soar
ing kite.

Another youth followed on the horae's
back, and after a run OF about six miles.
they picked the kite up and drove
back. 1t is now proposed to make q
huge kite of material saturated or
coated with asbestos, to render it fro.
proof, and utilize it for tho display
of fireworks to be ignited by slow
matches or fuse of various lengths
This is the biggest kite on
record. The next largest one was
that OF Merchant William Harral,
Of Bridgeport, whose kite was
nine feet high and seven wide, and
whose long, light tail extended for
nearly half mile Last summer while
no and party of friends were at his
cottage on the Connecticut shore he
brought out his kite and few 1t unuil
one Of the guests proposed to get into
light lady's dory that was dancing on
water, and take sail with tho kite.
Mr.. Harral agreed, got into the boat
passed the slack rope through the paint
er ring, and then, ono by one. the peo-
pie holding the rope on shore let go
their hold, and in second the boat was
under way. Out into tho sound they
went, man forward at tho ropo with q
sharp knife to cut, in case Of accidents,
and SO they ran across to Port jefferson
on Long Island; waiting there until the
wind changed, and then returning.
nj. A. Balut, of Eulaure. France, has
invented Photographic kite, which
consists of a small camera attached by
means of triangular support to the
backbone Of the kite. The camera is
provided with an instantaneous shut
ter. operated by slow method. This is
lighted before the kite is sent up, and
when combustion has proceeded q GER
tain distance, it sots fire to a small
thread, releasing the spring of the shut
ter, and an exposure is made. Another
novel feature Of this invention is the
use of an aneroid barometer attached to
the kite, so that tho operator can tell to
what height the kite assembled. and at
which the exposure was made. The
thread releasing tho shutter of tho
camera also records the registered
height, by means of the suns rays strik-
ing tho dial through an exposed hole
and printing the shadow of two needle
on the scnsitized paper covering the
dial. piece of paper also nut.crs to
the ground giving notice that an ex-
posture has been made. The uses c; this
