Princess Louise's Popularity.
1t is said that not one Englishman
in a thousand could ever name off
hand the children and grandchildren
of Queen Victoria, but they do seem
to remember the Princess Louise, and
news of her serious illness is received
with general regret.
OF all the daughters of the Queen
there is none more popular than
Louise, who is not only the flower OF
the royal flock, but is believed to hold
the broedest views and to nave the
keenest sense of humor. She is known
to be the counsellor and contidante Of
her eldest brother, the Prince of
Wales, who has great faith in her
Judgment. She is extremely simple
in her manners. although of the
most intellectual Of the Princesses of
the reigning house.
She had promised this autumn to
initiate several public Improvements
in Scottish towns, but her medical adj
visers have forbidden her to under
take any more such duties. As a
first steD toward recruiting her
strength and obtaining that absolute
rest which has been enjoined by her
physicians, the Princess Louise has
again sought the peaceful ard brac-
ing air of the Scottish coast. She is
the guest of Cyril Flower, NJ. p, and
she roams about undisturbed on the
cliffs and sands. She takes much de-
light in pottering about the tiny gar
den surrounding DIR. Flowers cot

toned sun flowers and hollyhocks.

When a gown is so hopelessly out of
fashion that it will not answer even
forhome wear, or when it is for any
other reason hors de combat, do not
hang it away in a closet, to take up
room, or shut it up in a chest, to grow
musty. First of all get it thoroughly
cleansed. If il is composed of wash
ing goods have it washed in its en-
tirety, as clean clothes are so much
pleasanter to handle than soiled ones.
Puffs and tucks should, of course, be
taken out first, and draperies that
come off easily may be removed and
washed separately. If the material
will not wash, brush and air thor
oughly, leaving the task of removing
stains, etc., till later on.
When it is as dlean rs it is practical
BILE TO make it, rip it into its constitu-
ent parts. Such portions as are quite
used up detach and put aside, along
with very small pieces for rags-to be
sold to a rag dealer or got out of the
way in any manne that seems best.
Buttons and hooks and eyes should
be put into a box kept for that pur-
pose. They can almost ALWAYS be
used again. Such parts OF the lining
as dTt SkiA SOulld, lfOn suiOOllly, roll
into nice even bundles, and put away.
The material of the gown proper
which is still good, press carefully
out, fold like a piece OF new goods,
and put away in a chest kept sacred
to raw materialn-i e.; goods to be
made up when needed.
OF course it is not gowns alone that
a be thus dissected. Do the same
with every east off garment, even I'M
derwear. Then, when something
new is required for one of the children
"a shirt, petticoat, frock or jacket
never visit the stores till you have
first looked through the contents of
this chest, which is very often a Hseek
no further and the convenience it is
TO have goods in such a shape that
n can tell absolutely how far they
may be made available is, as most
ON will believe, very great.
1t is not only the children's ward
robes that are REINFORCED from this
ource. A new house gown is often
TO be found by making a combination
of some of the materials stored there
in. Indeed, one of the much bedraped
skirts of a year or two ago will some
times furnish a full gown of the pres
ent simpler fashion.

Illusions.

The fact of our having two eyes
makes some strange illusions possible.
Let paper tube be placed to the left
eye and the hand be placed by the right
side of IL. and n hole will epPoor IN the
middle of the hand. This property OF
the brain of combining the images OF
the two retinas is occasionally of use
in tracing the form of an object under
the microscope without the aid OF a
drawing prism. That our judgment
of distance depends largely upon our
having two eyes may be shown by try
ing to thread needle with one eye
closed. Pictures must be classed as
optical illusions, for all,artists attempt
TO make objects on n fiat surface APP
pear TO have three dimensions. So
well is this done at times that we think
the eyes of picture follow us as we
move about the room. The effect of
neighboring forms in misleading the
Judgment may be shown by placing
two exactly equal, somewhat horseshoe
shaped pieces of cardboard with the
narrow part of the one opposed to the
broad part of the other, when the latter
will always look larger. How big does
the sun look ~ question: WHICH,
would get various answers. 1t is diff
cult to estimate the size OF an object
when there is nothing to compare it
with. When We see people walking
on the top of small hill, the summit
of which is sharply defined against the
sky, they appear gigantic. The
"Specter of the Brocken," O shade
cast by the rising SUI, may also b,
mentioned. An amusing error OF
Judgment is often made when one at
tempts to show the distance from the
floor a hat on gentleman's head
would reach. If square is divided
in one direction by parallel lines, it
appears elongated in the direction OF
the lines; in dress this is useful, for
vertical stripes make lady look much
taller and thinner.
