KISSING MOTHER.

How many young ladies of today
would laugh at the absurd idea, as they
express it, of kissing mother; but you
can not, dear girls, imagine how it will
brighten her dear face. Besides, you
owe her kiss or two. Away back,
when you were little girl, she kissed
you when no one else was tempted by
your fever tainted breath and swollen
face. You were not as attractive then
as you are now. And through those
years of childish sunshine and shadows
she was always ready to cure by the
magic of mothers kiss the little,
dirty, chubby hands whenever they
were injured in those first skirmishes
with the rough world. And then the
midnight kisses with which she routed
80 many bad dreams, as she leaned
above your restless pillow, have all
been on interest these long, long years.
OF course, she is not so pretty and kiss
able as you arc, but if you had done
your share of work these last ten years,
the contrast would not be so marked.
Her face has more wrinkles than y ours,
and yet if you were sick, that face
would appear far more beautiful than
an angels as it hovered over you,
watching every opportunity to minister
to your comfort, and every one of those
wrinkles would seem to be bright wave
let's of sunshine, chasing each other
over the dear face. Locomotive Fire

Migration Of Big Game.

Some of the Maine hunters report
that the caribou are fast leaving the
Maine forests and are going north into
Nova Scotia. John Darling informs
us that John Francis of the Trout
Brook region and Captain Barker of the
Rangeley lakes, two we'll known hun
ters, report that the caribou have been
leaving their localities for the past five
years and now only stray one is found
in the woods. The deer, on the con-
trary, are growing more plentiful in
these parts and are fast leaving the
Machias and Union river region. The
hunters are unable to assign any reason
for these movements of game. - Bangor

warm water will avert. Ordinarily
water is bad for the head; it chills tho
scalp and rots the hair. l have custom
crs who have not put water on their
hair since they were children. One
lady, with q suit of the most beautiful
black hair can recall, told me she had
not washed her head since her we'd
ding day, and that was thirteen
years ago. But the hair must be
kept clean for all that. / know moth
ing better than a good brush, which, if
we'll applied, will invigorate and
cleanse the head and give gloss to the
hair that nothing else will secure. !
consider the comb most deleterious
instrument unless handled correctly.
To begin at the head as most people do
in combing is to tear out or break the
hair. The proper way Is to begin at
the ends. Get the tangles out first and
ascend by degrees. The tresses smoothed
out should then be divided into three
or four parts and combed in sections.
BY this method some good and small
damage is accomplished. In using
fine tooth comb never drag it through
the length of the hair unless you are
anxious to become bald. The dandruf
Is not in the hair; it is in
the scalp, and the scalp only should
be combcd or scraped. BY care
fully dividing the hair the head can be
barred and com bed. A little practice
will enable maid to glido the comt
out of the hair. removing much of the
dandruff and dust with it. What re-
mains in the hair can be brushed off.
1t is difficult for an individual to clean
her own head. The duty should be
performed by some one. A very excel
lent shampoo can be prepared at home
that will keep the head in healthy
condition. Put into toilet bottle
mixture containing the following in
gradients: One pint of water, five cents
worth of powdered CASTLE soap. two
tabespoonfuls OF alcohol, half the
quantity of borax and the yolk of two
eggs. The egg contains iron, which
will be absorbed; the soap and borax
will cleanse the skin, and the alcohol
supply sufficiency of heat to prevent
cold. " Y World.

woMEN's SHOES.

"Women should be as particula
about wearing good shoes in the streets
as they are about headgear," said So
ciety lady, 'but there seems to be a
disposition just the other way. 1t is
not an unusual sight to see young
woman on the avenue handsomely
dressed, and with an attractive. looking
glazed sailor hat on her head, but a
most disreputable looking pair of shoes
peeping out from under her skirts.
Men are very quick to notice such
things, and while handsome walking
costumes may pass almost neglected,
hats and shoes always invite attention.
A word to the wise will probably result
IN moro attention being paid to these
details of street attire, and when it can
be afforded glazed sailor hat should
invariably be accompanied by pair of
patent leather-tipped shoes or gaiters,
either we'll BACKED or bronzed. -

FASHION NOTES.

Flat gold braid is now being used to
trim wooden dresses.
The 'effects'' in the new sunshades
are nothing, if not striking.
Its very light weight commends the
polonaise dress for summer use.
Gold and silver embroided jackets
for house wear are among stylish gar
ments.
Some of the handsomest wooden
gowns have square yokes of velvet and
velvet mutton-leg sleeves.
Lawns of white grounds with wide
black stripes, edged with open lace
patterns are made for mourning wear.
Alpaca dresses are made up with
jacket bodices opening over a very
full vest and with the plain skirt
straight.
The revival of draperies and polo
nase garments separate from the under
skirt is one of the predictions for sum-
mer.
Finely striped and crossbar ging-
hams are the best dresses for babies to
wear while travelling. They look neat
and wash we'll.
A scarfpin that is finding favor in
some circles is moonstone mask, which
can at will be lowered to show an onyx
profile at the back.
While sleeves increase in size, the
skirts seem to be diminishing in pro-
portion. Steels have disappeared and
pads are much smaller.
The Greek Fillet worn with very
tousled heads of auburn brown hair is
favorite style of hair dressing with
ultra fashionable women.
Accordion pleated skirts are still
worn and will be for some time, also
straight full skirts of net, crepe, with
rows of moire or other ribbons as a
border.
Many of the transparent gauze fans
are mounted on very light wood, one
half the fan covered with large loosely
made flowers formed of pink or white
silk crepe.
Very elegant camel's hair fabrics are
imported with brocaded borderings in
richly shaded silks. Those in gray,
mohogany, and rescda are particularly
attractive.
Skirts for outdoor dresses are cut full
and fall in richer folds, the back
breadths drapei slightly, while the
front breadths, when plain. have two
ends of wdo ribbon falling from ths
waist,

Saved by n Dog.

About four thousand anecd otcs have
been published under the above title,
in which dogs have figured in preserv-
ing human life. We had dog onceo
noted for saving things, but there
wasn't life among them. He kept
the things he saved under the summer
kitchen, and his hiding place wasn't
discovered for long time; not, indeed,
until it became necessary to tear up the
kitchen floor to find good place to
deposit some chloride of limo during a
cholera season; then we found what
had been saved by dog"
There were couple of kittens, a
cat, two or three rats and chicken all
very dead; large assortment of bones,
the remnants of an ottoman. for the
theft of which the best hired girl we
ever had was discharged; tomato can;

funny applications for pensions, the
reasons for applying being absurd be-

because .'his wife's first husband had
been killed in battle, and he, having
married her and endured her temper
and bad cooking for many years, until
death released her from this world
and himself from the two above trials,
he desired a pension on that ac-
count"
From in the morning until in the
afternoon we wrote at our desks, with a
half hour for lunch, every day but Sun

nearly all had suffered in some way
from the war, through which most had
passed. Some few were there through
influence. Of the twelve Counting the

eight were widows, either wives or

four young women were orphans. The
most perfect decorum prevailed and

treated with greater respect by all with
whom she may come in contact.

MARRIAGE RELATIONS REVERSED.

hahhihpE NCLh hEN
Miss Amelia B. Edwards says that
from the time of the pyramids to the
reign of the Ptolemys woman was, lie :
gally and socially, mans equal in every
way, and at times his superior. Women
carried on business In their own names,
entirely distinct from their hus bands.
Marriage contracts which have been
discovered show that state of affairs
prevailed contrary to present customs.
Then the man promised to serve the
wife in all things.
The man accepted the woman to be
his wife and she became possessed of
not only her own property but all of
her husbands. 1t was hers absolutely.
On the other hand the wife engaged to
provide the husband with food and
clothing and to see that his body was
properly mbalmed after death. The
man when he married took the name of
his wife, and the sons that were born
to them took their mothers name. ~
