worn. The black grenadine is in all
wool and silk or all silk, and the weave
is semi-transparent, with no lace effect
at all. There are grenadines with wide
stripes of satin face and narrow stripes,
singly or in clusters, and dotted with a
great variety of dotted effects, and
checked as well as quite plain iron
frame styles.
There Is one black Grape grenadine
which is most beautifully soft and sheer,
and it drapes exquisitely, the surface
showing rich, lustrous black, never be-
fore equaled in such goods.
There are silk grenadines in navy
blue, with silvery white stripes, some of
them two thread and others half an inch
wide, and there is a pearl gray, with
ivory satin stripes, which is very deli
cate and beautiful.
The polka dotted grenadines have tbs
dots separate and irregular, in clusters
Of three and five, and large oval dots
with small round ones woven in upon
these; but to my taste the elliptical dots
and figures are prettier than any of the
others. There are very few brocaded
grenadines, and great many of the
tamise or sieve mesh. All are beautiful,
and all soft finished. They will be made
up alone, and self trimmed or mingled
with the plain, as is shown in the first
figure, which has the petticoat front of
dotted and the rest of plain meshed
black grenadine, the whole trimmed
with rows of silk moss trimming, which
will be largely employed for garniture
this season.
There are some exquisite soft crepes in
a very deep crinkle which will be popu-
lar for home and full dress, made up
alone or with soft India silks. They are
in the new shades of mauve, orange and
red, besides blue, pink and cream. They
are dignifed this season, these coloTs, by
classical names, and are called after the
different goddesses, such as Venus,
Psyche, Calypso, etc. The new red is
the very reddest red ever saw, and is
called rouge du dlable. Stillit is really
pleasing color.
In new spring woolens there is such
variety, and all so worthy of special de-
scription, that l shall wait until next
week
There is one beautiful new material
which is between camers hair and a
serge, with a sort of undressed kid effect.
This is used to make walking dresses Of,

Carbonate of Lime for Tunrors.

An English medical journal IS credited
with the statement of physicians twenty
years experience in the use OF carbonate of
lime, in the form of c&lcined oyster shells,
as means of arresting the growth of can
cerous tumors-the result attained ha7ing
been extremely satisfactory. Reference is
made to several cases in which a persever-
ing use Of calcined shell powder arrested
the growth and pain in trmors undoubted-
" OF canccrouS character, and the per-
sistent trial of the remedy IS urged in ali
cases where the nature OF the affection is
easily recognized. 1t Is affirmed that it can
do no possible harm. and an advantage of
the treatment is that it may be readily pre-
pared at home by baking oyster shells in
an oven and then scraping off the calcined
white lining of the concave shell; the sub
stance thus obtained is to be reduced to
powder, and as much as Will lie on q silver

wore a white embroidered muslin that
reached to her feet, which were incased
in high heeled kid slippers to make her
look taller, otherwise she would hardly
have been seen at all. The waist was
high iii the neck, with fiot OF white
ribbons Oh the left shoulder that hung
down TO the waist, and narrow ribbon
was tied around the waist. She sang
"Hear dem Bells" IiInping around the
stage like a veritable old darby, and yet
she is so little that she actually cannot

"'glowy."

t.nIf Summarizing Indians.

For t1e benefit of those people who
think the Indian will not work." said
Commissioner Morgan in recent inter
view. Il want 10 mention the sum
which we paid out last year for Indian
labor. L. was S542. coo. This money was
paid TO agency and school employees, TO
farmers interpreters, police, judges of In
dian courts, for hauling supplies, for prod
uce, hay wood and other supplies pur-
chased from them, for breaking land on
government properly and for logs cut and
banked by them. ] contend That this is a
very good showing for Indian labor, and
the sum paid would be ten times as large
a. it is II there was work enough to give
employment to all who wish it.
The Umatilla Indians of Oregon have
been under care Of the government for
thirty years, and are practically self sup
porting, and would long ago have been
entirely independent had their lands
been allotted 10 them in Severalty. The
total population is only 200, yet last year
they harvested $50, 600 bushels of wheat
cut 2,CJ0 tons of hay, and other crops in
proportion. Ia very short time, | think,
this tribe, rs well as others who have rich
lands and fair opportunities, such as the
white settlers select for themselves, will
be able 70 stand alone.
The Cces, who few years ago were lead
ing the lie Of nomad savages, have 600 acres
under cultivation, and raise goodly quaint
ties of wheat, corn and oats They have
learned the art of irrigation by means of
bitches. The Jlcarilla Apaches show an
Unborn thrift. Though the white settlers
have all the best lands. and the Indians
have no water Tor irr' CATION purposes. they
cultivated last year so acres with fair re-
suits and cut 100 tons OF hay They have
built for themselves. and are now occupy

curing animals already Infected ny uness
diseases
Their results are to great extent self
explanatory, and there is every reason to
expect that the same method viii befoUnd
TO be applicable to other infectious dis
eases. The most remarkable part Of their
discovery is the fact that the blood of an
animal that has been made immune
against diphtheria possesses the extraor-
binary power of destroying the poison
formed by the microbe of this disease.
This power is also possessed by the serum
of such an immune animal, which serum
can therefore be used as a curative means
on other animals that are suffering from
diphtheria. The same statement holds
good for tetanus
The method by which, in the first case,
they produced immunity against tetanus
and diphCheria IS not described. But
among IL 0ortant points established by
their experiments are:
First--That the blood of rabbits which
have been made immune against tetanus
can destroy the tetanus poison.
Second-This character can be shown TO
be possessed by the blood both before and
after it has left the vessels, and in the cell
free blood serum obtained from it.
Third-This character is of so permanent
a nature that it is still manifested by such
serum alter 1t has been injected into other
animals; consequently, by TRANSMISSION of
such blood Or serum, important therapeu-
tic actions can be obtained.
Fourth-This power of destroying the
tetanus poison is absent from the blood Of
such animals as are not immune against
tetanus, and after such animals have been
killed by the tetanus poison it can be
shown 10 be present in their blood tissues.
The authors close their paper by pointing
out the possibility that their method OF
curing tetanuS and diphtheria, which they
have used with such brilliant results on
animals so highly susceptible TO these dis
eases as mice and rabbits, may also be used
for the far less susceptible hospital patient.

Useful Points For People in Search Of
Good Form and Polish.
Small points of etiquette which ''the
books" seldom meutiOn are constantly
cropping up 70 disturb the mind of the ru-
raj dweller and the novice in city life.
Harper's Bazaar aids some Of its troubled
correspondents with brief replies to queries
on these matters, from which the follow
ing practical items are CLEANED:
a card TO an ordinary reception does not
require an acceptance. An invitation for
mally requesting ''the pleasure of your
company" does require an answer. The
cards left at an affair do not lessen the OBJ
legation of a call You should at least
leave a card upon the person before invit-
ing her TO your reception. 1t Is polite to
include your friends guest.
There is no settled rule in the matter,
but mourning dress for a parent is usually
worn year. Heavy black may be light
ened in six months, and concerts and small
entertainments are then attended.
A groom furnishes nothing bat gloves,
ties and, if he so wish, fsvors for the ush-
ers. and OF course the brides bouquet.
There is Go objection 10 your going about
after your invitations are out-that idea Is
a past one.
Yes, give your hand 70 your hostess on
leaving. Hand shaking is a much mis-
managed art. Do as little Of it as need be,
and do that little quietly. and not as if you
were about 70 perform a trapeze act.
