from the early ballad singers To Mrs.
Browning in the 'Romaunt of the Page"
and the Swedish Tcgner, in his beautiful
story Of "Axcl." But in modern times
women have less romantic reasons for the
change ol costume. Like George Sand
they may do it i'll spirit of adventure
like Rosa Bonhcur and our own DR.. Mary
Walker, because they Tina it more COM
Portable, or like the hundreds of cases
which are constantly being noted by the
newspapers, because they find that an ap-
parent change Of sex enables them to
make better living. Rosa Bonheur
wears trouscurs when at work, but re-
sumcs her female attire in the evening.
She wears not only trousers, but full
male outfit, including the French labor

liable to meet. Louisa Lawton, the

trousers and coat when at work. Sarah
lScrnhardt, in her studio, assumes a black
velvet suit OF clothes. in which she is
conscious that she looks very charming.
Almc. Diculafoy, the French explorer and
scientist, who has done 50 much to in
crease our knowledge Of Persian achmol-
ogy, also looks more coquettish and win
some i'll the costume she adopted while
jonrncying i'll strange lands than in the
skirts which she wears in Paris. Indeed,
even i'll Paris, her only return to feminine
costume is in the substitution OF skirts
for trousers. The coat and vest, the
shirt, collars and cuTs are retained.

STORAGE OF VEGETABLES.

The stock of vegetables designed for
winter use should be stored in the best
possible manner. When the cellar be-
meath the dwelling house is used for this
purpose there is always more or less I'M
pleasant odor arising from them unless,
rs should always be the case in every
wcll-built house, there is chimney that
reaches to the bottom Of the cellar. An
out-of-door cellar is great convenience,
but not always to be had, and pits arc
difficult to get at during the freezing
part of winter. Ii therefore we are to
be content with the ordinary house
cellar care should be taken by OCCASION
ally opening the windows mt either side,
to provide Il free circulation Of air across
it. The vegetables should he stored
mostly in boxes and barrels with sand or
soil filtered through them and shaken
down to fill up the little spaces. Pota-
toes should be kept covered from the
light, occasionally picked over and busted
with air-slalied lime. Orchard and Gar

LIGHT AND WATER.

But few plants will grow. flourish and
flower without good light. AT the window
every plant turns its leaves and extends
its shoots directly to the light. This is
more particularly so with such as arc
growing freely. Those plants in state
OF rest, as the palm tribe, or that have
tough natures, like the ivy, the sweet
myrtle. etc, will live long time if
properly watcred, if not in direct light !;
but they all do better exposed rs much
as possible to the full light. Even in a
greenhouse, that to the common observer
is all light, as it were, the plants don't
show it, as they all turn their faces to
the sun, and are one-sided, rs compared
to plant grown entirely out doors.
Water is another important thing, with
plants growing in an artificial atmos-
phere. No rule can be given when or
how to water. But few plants, and those
of the cactus nature, can live long with
out water. If plant be growing fast,
or is in a small pot with crowd of
leaves, it will dry faster than one with
reversed circumstances. A young cutting
just rooted does not of itself evaporate
much water from its leaves; but it may
be the dry atmosphere of the room ex-
tracts the moisture very fast from the
soil. If so it must be replaced.
We recollect years ago, sort Of man
of-allwork and factotum in Il family,
among other things agreed to attend TO
the watering of the. plants in a small
conservatory attached to the dwelling.
His custom was so that it should not be
too laborious-to do onc-half one day,
the balance the next. No matter if the
plants, by dropping their heads, loudly
called for more water, his expression
was, they can't have it until tomorrow
when their time comes. Now, this
won't do for plant culture. They must be
watered whenever dry, whether once a
day, twice, or every other day.
A very little attention to the signs,
and the plant itself will soon show about
when and how often it will want it, The
pot, on tapping, will sound hollow if

4 Baby Born With Teeth.

Mrs. George Drocscher, of Cincinnati,
recently became Il mother of a Girl
baby perfectly formed, and weighing ten
pounds. 1t was discovered that the
child was born with the two lower incisor'
teeth almost fully grown, while the rest
OF the teeth on both jaws could be plainly.

upper and lower molars have made their
appearance, and the baby has full set
of teeth i'll sight. When born it seemed
in perfect health, but most of the vital
force being expended OIL the remarkable
development of the teeth, the other
parts of the body have grown slowly.

HINTS on HORSE s1oEINn.

DO not Let horses shoes remain on over
three to six weeks, dependent on the
amount of use and the toughncss and
growth of the hoofs. Each time after
taking off the shoes, if the road permits,
LET him go barefoot rs long rs no injury
follows, as this expands the hoofs aud
keeps them i'll more perfect condition.
Some horses can be used barefoot, off
pavcmcnts, for months, Or the whole year
round, ana work better than if shod.
Never allow the frog of the foot to be cut
out or trimmed unless somewhat ragged.
and then only Il very little, as it acts rs a
cushion TO the foot and lessons or even
prevents bruising when striking Il stone
or other hard substance. See that the
hoof is not pared beyond absolute ncccs-
sity, and that the shoe is properly fitted
TO it, and not the hoof to the shoe. Do
not allow the bottom of the hoof to be

Wholesome Vegetables and Frnit.

People need to be frequently reminded
of the fact that if they make practice
of using variety of vegetables and fruit
as Il part Of their ordinary diet, the
doctor will not be needed to prescribe
for them so frequently Asparagus is ii
strong diuratic, and forms part of the
cure for rheumatic patients at such
health resorts rs Ankles Bails. Parsley
is also useful rs diurctic, and those re-
quiring such aid should make free use of
il. Carrots are understood by the
peasants of Savoy to be specific for
iaindicc, and. although they are thought
to be hard OF digestion, it is only the
yellow core that is SO. Onions are adj
mittcd to be rich in those alkaline clc-
mcnts which countcract the poison of
rheumatic govt, and people who are of
studions or scdentary habits should make
free use of them, gently stewed and
served with other vegetables. The
stalks of the caulihower, if properly
cooked, also serve like purpose Gel
cry has acquired n great reputation as a
remedy for rheumatism, and in many
cases has proved beneficial. Watercrcss
is prescribed by many medical men rs
helpful to the liver and lungs. Many
other vegetables arc useful, not only for
their special medicinal properties, but as
general regulators of the bowels and rs
correctivcs, and withal they contain
valuable elements Of nutrition, which
should commend them apart from every
other consideration.

A rich mellow soil and frequent cut
ting out OF the old wood is necessary to
grow good crop OF currants.
Do not cultivate too much land, An
acre well titled will bring more profit
than four acres poorly cared for.
Do your horses and cattle drink pure
water? If not, see to it, for they can no
more thrive OH impure water than you
can.
If short of yard manure use phosphate,
and SOW clover seed freely. The sod
turned under both cnrichcs and nriates

How shall we compost manure2 Do
not compost il. The soil is greatly bcne-
fitted by the fcrmenting and rotting of
the manure in it.
Protect the young trees, especially
from the risk of injury by rabbits or
mice. This should be done early in the
fall or considerable mage may be
done.
Set good example for your neghbors
to follow, by having well kept fruit
garden. One such garden in II commu.
nifty will induce many TO follow your cx-
ample.
A coed providcr may be discovered .,y

there is no dry wood and kiudings in
yours you should not scold if the bread
is not light
An experienced orchardist recommends
that, when it is necessary to set tree
where an old one has died. wagon-load
OF earth should be removed and replaced
with fresh new soil.
The asparagus bed and the rhubarb
plants should he carefully mulched late
in the fall. We manure in addition to
nulching. This will aid materially to
the securing ofa better growth.
With fruits, as with all other crops,
the plants can best be fed by manuring
the ground, and the better rotted and
the finer prepared and the more thor
oughly incorporated with the soil the
bstter will be the results secured.
Old orchards can be renovated in the
fall by blowing shallow and thorough

ONE woMAx's rrxAxcrA!. ABILITY.

The increase of the Garrett capital
during the illness of Robert Garrett is an
accepted fact in financial circles, and it
is said to be altogether due TO the sound
business sense of Miss Mary Garrett, the
only daughter of John W. Garrett, and
sister OF Robert. II seems Incredible,
but 1t is the truth, that this young lady
has virtually handled the Garrett railroad
and banking interests ever since one of
her brothers was attacked with disease
and the other lost his life She is not
yet thirty years OF aye, and is n hand
some woman of the blonde tyne. She
obtained her business training from her
father, to whom she was Il constant com.
panion III his later years, and she turned
1t to GOOD account when the Garrett
family was actually deprived of male
head. No woman has ever had such II
responsibility of this kind placed upon
her as that which Miss Garrett has vol
unfairly shouldcrcd, and if the whole
story OF her work could be told it would
he Il narrative of the most extraordinary
business qualifications that any woman
