Martha, or the Sisters degree, illustrating un-
deviating faith in the hour of trial, and Eiecta,
or the Benevolent degree, illustrating charity
and courage, with patience aud submission un-
der wrongs All of the degrees together are
called the "Rite of the Eastern STAR" and are
very beautiful and impressive Ladies who have
received these degrees have ready and efficient
means of commanding the services of Masons
whenever and wherever they may need them.
The moral teachings of the Eastern Star degree
are excellent, and cannot fail to make a good
impression. Notwithstanding there is among
some Masons strong feeling against any form
that the spirit of the age demands something OF
the kind. Masons cannot find a surer safeguard
for their wives, sisters, and daughters than is
furnished by the American Adaptive Rite, or
Order of the Eastern Star. To the objection
that the degrees are not Masonic it may be re-
piled that they are as much SO as any degree
outside the symbolic lodge All degrees above
the first three are Masonic only by adoption

Thought He Had EN- 4

From the Philadelphia Press.
A Georgia man, Mr.. Evans, stood in the
Girard Cafe preparing to mail a letter, and had
just moistened two one-cent stamps when they
slipped from his fingers and tiuttered to the
floor. Mr.. Evans, who is portly man, looked
at them in disgust, and then stopped to pick
them up. Before he could put his fingers upon
them, however, they began to move slowly
away from him along the floor. He drew back
and gazed at the spectacle with astonshment
and horror. When they reached the side Of the
room they began slowly to ascend the wall. 1t
is to be hoped that Mr.. Evans is not given to
drink, but he hastened to the bartender at this
point and begged him to feel his pulse When
he returned the stamps had risen halfway to
the ceiling, and were still gliding upward
Happily for Mr.. Evans's sanity, the bits Of blue
paper just then altered their course and began
| to descend, and soon they were within reach Of
his hand. Then the mystery was explained.
| The moistened stamps had fallen upon iy's
| back and had stuck to the insect, which nat
urally enough had started off with them.

Cool Off With Hot Drinks.

TOLl UHt TIGTdIu OF I1tdIUH.
1t is a mistake to suppose that cold drinks are
necessary to relieve thirst. Very cold drinks,
as rule, increase the feversh condition of the
mouth and stomach, and so create thirst. Ex-
perence shows that hot drinks relieve the thirst
and ''cool off, the body when it is in an abnor-
mally heated condition better than ice-cold
drinks. 1t is far better and safer to avoid the
free use of drinks below sixty degrees in fact,
those who are much troubled with thirst will do
well to try the advantages to be derived from
hot drinks instead of cold fluids to which they
have been accustomed. Hot drinks also have
the advantage of aiding digestion, instead of
causing debility of the stomach and bowels.

PERFuMING THE ELEsH.
The Latest Use to which Paris Danes
Have Put the Hypodermic Syringe.

The Latest Use to which Paris Danes
Have Put the Hypodermic Syringe.
Paris Letter in N o. Picayune.
A curious hypodermic mania has taken hold
of portion of Partisan female society. 1t is
nothing else than the perfumng of the flesh
and blood of the body. This curious result is
obtained by the hypodermic injection of few
drops of the most pungent essence. The fact
was discovered by one of the leaders of GER
tain class, who was addicted to the habit of
using morphine by injection. She noticed that
after an unusually heavy dose of the drug her
body exhaled very perceptibly its characteristic
odor. In the spirit Of curiosity she then charged
her needle syringe with few drops of patch
Gull, and presently observed the same result
So powerfully did her flesh exhale the perfume
that her linen was scented with it almost as
strongly as though the extract had been sprin-
kled thereon She was highly delighted at the
discovery, and for time kept the secret to her
self, using the knowledge to increase her at
tractiveness. But one day the trick was dis
covered by her maid, and soon 1t was in gen
eral use. Ladies of the gra,,de monde, ever
ready to follow fashions set by their supposedly
Trailer sisters next took it up, and now the
needle-point syringe is a necessary part of
every toilet outfit.
The most curious effects are produced by the
habit. Some ladies keep themselves redolent Of
one perfume, while Others vary the flavor ac-
cording to occasion. One grdnde dame, for in
stance, is saturated with roses at dinner, with
asmin at the opera, and with violets at the ball.
Unfortunately the habit is attended with con-
siderable peril, chiefly in the form of blood
poisoning from impure extracts, while some of
the extracts are themselves poisonous. Several
ladies have been made seriously i'll, and medical
authorities are considering whether the legisla-
ture may not properly prohibit the fashion.
