BEGINNING CT the FoStat-re

a system OF posts was established in Eng.
land In the time Of Edward ", about 1881
and postnasters were appointed: but their
business was confined to furnishing post
horses to the carriers Of the government, and
10 persons who were DESTROYS of travelling ex-
peditiously or who wished 10 send important
packages upon special occasions In 1855.
Charles | established a letter osice for the
Transmission Of letters between England and
Scotland, but these extended only 10 few Of
the principal roads; the times Of carriage
were uncertain, and the postmasters on each
road were required to furnish horses for the
conveyance of the lstters, at the rate OF 21sd
per mile. DR.. Brand says this establishment
did not succeed, and that at the breaking out
OF the civil war great difficulty was expe-
rienced in the transmission Of letters. At
length posto(iioe, or a national establish
ment for the weekly conveyance Of letters to
al parts Of the kingdom, was instituted b.

Fillets, Aigrettes and Bandeaux.

attire belonging to the Empire period seem
for the time to have taken the place of the
little aigrette and PoNpadour wreaths which
gave to English girls ard women touch OF
the stateliness of the ladies of the reign OF
Louis XIV. Yet there are some adoruments
of the fashion Of the earlier period still in
favor - among them miniatu re pompon
wreaths Of tinsel, with en- osprey; aigrettes
entirely composed of curled osprey; and the
bewitching tiny half wreaths of wee roses,
with three Or four Of the little blossoms and
buds set in an upright cluster on one side
The newest devices, however take the form
of bandeaux Of narrow curled feathers, the
stem of the feather being followed by a line
Of gold, and either cluster of feather but

Nuns Yelling Night Dresses.

A material which is gaining favor for night
gowns is nuns yelling, principally in pale
pink or cream. 1t is the very finest that can
be had, and is soft and warm. It is trimmed
with plaitings of the same, and sometimes
with frills of cream Velenciennes lace in adj
dition. Some are made rather low in the
neck, and with shorter sleeves than formerly.
The fashion for cashmere sheets is also gain
ing in popularity for those who can afford
them, for they are costly. They are recon-
mended by physicians as being warm and
healthy for winter use

a very Monderful Fi.h story.

Some time ago remarkable story was
sent out from Sibley, Iowa, of fall of
thousands of fish in a cloud-burst. The
supposed fish were of kind known only
to abound in lake near the City of Mex
leo, and this added to the wonder. Four
specimens were secured by business firm
Of Sibley, and have been on exhibition
ever since. They are something like a
lizard, have four legs, same number of
fingers and toes as an alligator, equally
happy in water or ont of it. One of them
walked across the store floor as lively as a
cricket, and on being returned to the
water swan equally as well. Another
thing about them, they are changing their
personal appearance. When captured
each had row of feathers, or something
like it. around the throat, or where the
gills ought to be. These have disappeared,
and they have changed or shed their
skins and are now becoming spotted. As
Artemus Ward said, one of them is an
.amoosin' little cuss," having swallowed
whole his little brother or sister.

What the Modern Girl Must Know.

The conditions of modern life in this
great and growing country are such that
the average American girl of more favored
circumstances may step from the school
room generally before she is 20 years old,
into station where the demands of do
mestic, social, charitable and practical
affairs leave her little time for further sys-
tematic study, and yet tax every resource
other store of knowledge and requirement.
If, then, she is confronted with subjects of
which she is ignorant, and with which she
should have acquired at least speaking
acquaintance while at school, she may
Justly reproach her teachers that they
have adopted the mistaken policy of edu-
eating n girl who was to leave school at 20
on the plan requiring a continuance at
school till al least %. Though many have
doubted the possibility to provide for this
active and proper demand, without CON-
promise, which is unfair TO thoroughness,
and which will not result in superfciality,
am justified in having adopted, and for
many years defended such plan, by the
highest authority among the educators of
modern times.-Scribaer's Monthly.
