The High Sleeve poomed.

1t is quite likely that the reign of the
excessively high sleeve is about over, al
least with the ultra-fashionable, who
watch and obey every beck and nod of
the "Ficl1le Dame" who rules fashions
world. Already it has been recorded
that at a recent important social gather
ing the Princess OF Wales wore gown
the sleeves of which were level with
her shoulders. When a royal parsonage
of such power and acknowledged good
taste discards fashion, its death-war-
rant with the majority is already sealed,
as the true English woman follows ever
the lead of her Royal Highness, and all
good Americans copy closely the styles
of their cousins across the water. The
very high, very full sleeves are absurd,
and in many cases they have proved
most unbecoming If not ludicrous. Well
cut AMI not exaggerated, they have been
an admirable addition to many gowns,
but we believe that the return to sleeves
of normal construction will be received
with general satisfaction.-N. Y. Even

ARTIFICIAL lcE.
People In India Knew How to Freeze
Water Centuries Ago.

People In India Knew How to Freeze
Water Centuries Ago.
The fact that 1t is now possible to
supply artificial ice on scale and at q
price suited to the needs of great oity
is a noteworthy example of tho applica-
tions of science to the exigencies OF
modern life. The notion once preva-
lent that noXious microbes were de-
stroyed by congelation, and that no
danger was incurred by using ice taken
from rivers and ponds known to be con-
taminated by sewage, has long since
been discarded. Thereis reason to be-
lieve that in tho United States, where
the consumption of ice water is inordi-
nately great natural ice has been tho
medium of propagating a notable
amount of disease.
To destroy those microbes, which are
the germs of typhoid fever and other
dangerous maladies, water should be
boiled, or, better yet, distilled, before
1T is subjected to tho congealing process.
OF course, such precautions are only
possible in the case of artificial ice, and
If the public wero once convir ced that
the manufacturers of that commodity
against disease, the use of natural ice
would gradually be abandoned, pro-
vided, that is to say, the artificial prod
uct could be procured as cheaply.
1t is an interesting fact that ice was
artificialiy produced in India long be-
fore the invention of machines for the
purpose. In the upper provinces water
was made to freeze by exposing it dur
ing cold nights in porous vessels or bot
ties wrapped in moistened cloth. In
BENGAL shallow pits were dug and filled
nearly full with dry straw, on which
were set flat porous pans containing the
water to be CONCEALED. Exposed over
night to cool wind the water evaporat-
ed at the expense of it's own heat, and
the consequent cooling took place with
sufficient rapidity to ooverbalance the in
tlux of heat through the cooled air above
or the badly conducting straw below.
Ice. made in this way, however, was
costly, and when in 1883 natural ice was
shipped from the United States to CAL
cutta it was sold for half the price of
the manufactured article. On tho other
hand, machine shown at the Vienna
Exhibition in 1870 made thirty hundred
weight of ice an hour at cost of twen-
ty-fve cents hundred weight, and it
is now asserted that ice can he manu-
factured on large scale for less than
81 ton.
There has certainly been a wonderful
development of the ice trade since the
pioneer, William Tudor, of Boston,
shipped the first cargo of ice to Mar
Unique in 1905. At one time American
ice was sent to England, but Norway
now monopolizes the ice market of the
Old World. 1t is said that Norwegian
ice is superior in staying powers to
the manufactured product. - Cleveland

sesses an extraordinary degree of inter-
est, which the modesty of the relator
and her apparent inconsistencies OF
having done any thing remarkable
rather enhances than lessons.
You find me surrounded now with
every luxury" said Miss Hoffman, but
two years ago 1 was Il poor girl in an
Illinois country town, earning my daily
bread by hard labor. My father had
died year evi"usly. My mother was
an incurable invalid My days were
spent in the small dry-goods store where
earned just sufficient to support us.
The only relatives l had were II dis
tant cousin in New York and an uncle,
my mothers brother, with whom my
father had quarreled in early life and
to whom our branch of the family had
never become reconciled. News
reached me one day that this uncle, a
morose old man, had been suddenly
stricken with disease, and had eX-
pressed q wish to see his only sister and
her child. He was very well-to-do. AS
a prosperous merchant on South Water

fortune, and it was with renewed hope
that mother and ] set out for Chicago.
Upon our arrival here we at once
went to the store on South Water
street, whore we met his partner. He
received us with cold politeness, but in
formed us, much to our astonishment,
that visit to my uncle's home on the
North side could be provocative of no

much set against my mother as ever

SPAlN'S QUEEN-REGENT.
She Is Extremely Popular Simply Because
She Tells No Falsehoods.

She ieiis No idhenOous.
A prominent Spanish statesman was
asked the other day TO what he attrib-
uted the strange fact that woman, and
a foreigner, held the reins of govern
ment successfully in her hands in
country so undermined as Spain by po-
litical intrigue. The marvel, if marvel
there be, /" was the reply, ''can be ex-
planned in the simplest manner:
The Queen maintains her position
because she is the exact opposite of an
intriguing and conspiring woman. She
tells no falsehoods, has nothing of the
hypocrite about her, is as simple and
modest as she is honest, and there is no.
body in Spain who is not convinced that
che tries to do her best for the country.
The Queens popularity especially with
the women of Spain-is real power
which gives her much of the hold which
she has over her subjects. Natural tact.
Intelligence and kindness are also among
the weapons by which Queen Christine
maintains her position.
Like your own Queen, the Queen
Regent of Spain has worn mourning
ever since the death of her consort, and
only quite lately has she begun to wear
jewelry on state occasions. In public
the Queen, who is thirty-one years old,
appears only with her son, the little
King, with whom she takes drives in
the neighborhood of Madrid. The
Queens two daughters, aged six and
sevenrespectively, talk Spanish, French,
German and English fluently, and are
both very strong and healthy looking
children. Since it has become known
that the Queen calls Alphonso Mi.
'Bubi, in memory OF her Austrian home,
Spanish ladies have begun to call their
children by the name, which-ignorant
of its real derivation from bube, boy
they trace back to the English term,
baby, or more ingeniously, from pup
y.'"-Pall Mall Gazette.
