According to one of Ha,per's correspond
ents, the old type of American girl broad,
which the satirist still continues to describe
from force of habit, no longer exists. The
smart and fascinating creature has changed
her tactics. She has retired, and another
has come to the front to assume the position
and privileges of the captivating woman of
80, no matter if the daughters years approx
innate that number. She walks meekly and
with downcast if expectant eyes, awaiting
her fate.
The smartest ball dress seen this season is
an old rose chiffon, made with skirt of
dancing length and bodice of velvet ex-
actly the color of the lighter material; about
the skirt, in rows arranged to represent stiff
bows and ends is feather trimming of the
rose shade carefully appliqued on the neck
is outlined with pink feathers, pink
feather aigrette is worn in the hair, pink
feather fan is carried, and the long un-
dressed kid gloves are pink. The wearer of
this costume, however, perfectly understood
the coquetry of slippers, and SO she wore
black silk stockings and black satin slip
pers realizing that they made her foot look
much smaller than any light shoe.
July always witnesses an evolution of tea
jackets, in which perhaps to drink iced

Several signs belonging to business

ed with his conversation. The pris-
oner was man who had been noted
for his enjoyment of the luxuries of
existence. He said: at is great
mistake you fellows make in think
ing you are inflicting punishment
when you send men here. / have
been here year, and can truly say
1 have enjoyed it SO much that I
shall not feel sorry if my pardon is
not obtained. You see, it has been
vacation, with just enough to do to
amuse me. The novels in the prison
library are entertaining, and l am
very fond of dominoes and check
ers, and find some first-rate players
among the men. Now If it strikes
me in this ay,who have been accus-
toned to every luxury, how must
it be to the poor devils who never
have a square meal outside? Do
you wonder that they flock by hum
dreds and thousands to the jails in
winter? My only surprise is that
you can keep any of them out at
all. Nv. P. Andrews, in Forum.

An Ore Finder.

A Denver, Col, dispatch to the
St. Louis Republic, says: There is
another craze in Colorado over a
patent a man claims to have by
means of which the rich portions
of a vein of mineral can be at
once discovered. Just exactly what
the machine is nobody seems to
know, but it is small instrument
that can be readily carried in the
hand. The first trial was on the
Brownlow, in Park county, prop
erty that one time had quantity
of good ore, but which devevelop-
ment has failed to make profitable.
Here it is given out the machine
indicated that the rich ore had been
left and that all work was being
put on developing a feeder. With
the machine as a guide operations
were changed, and the result is, ac-
cording to the owners, that the mine
is in as good pay ore as it ever was.
Everybody is anxiously awaiting
the result, but few, however, have
any faith in the thing.

Scientific Cranks.

The world is much indebted to
what are sometimes called "scien-
tifc cranks" for many of its COM
forts and conveniences. Every time
we strike match, says the Alumi-
mum Age, we are indebted to the
men who have studied science for
the mere love Of it. The men that
worked away at coal tar "just to see
what was in it" made the whole
world their debtors by discovering
alizarin, the coloring principle Of
madder, and to these men the world
is indebted also for aniline, antipy-
rine, and more than 100 other coal
tar products. Scientists wondering
what was in crude petroleum, found
paraffine and vaseline. Pasteur
wondered what caused fermentation.
He found out and brought a new
era to wine-making. The singing
and dancing of teakettle attracted
the attention of a brain, and we
have as consequence all the ap-
plications of steam. The swinging
of a chandelier in an Italian cathe-
dral before the eyes of young Gal
ileo was the beginning of a train of
thought that resulted in the inven-
ton of the pendulum, and through
it to the perfecting of the measure
ment of time, and thus its applica-
ton and use in navigation, astro-
nomic observations, and in a thou
sand ways we now pass by unnoted,
has been of such practical value
that the debt to scientific thought,
even in this one instance, can never
be known. Science, in its study of
abstract truth, is ever giving to man
new beginnings. While the devil
is engaged in finding mischief for
idle hands to do, science is eternally
at work finding something useful
for them to do.

For Sicilian Honor.

They say Sicilian drvM-major,
during the French occupation Of

it was feared he would disgrace his
country at the last moment ia the
presence Of the French soldiers,
who had way Of being shot with
good grace and = light heart; they
had grown accustomed to it.
For the honor Of Sicily his con-
fessor told him, in the strictest con-
idence, that his sentence was q
mock one, and that he would be
fred at With blank-cartridges.
It was pious fraud. All but two
of the twelve cartridges had bullets,

Above the age of GO the chance is
only .0O1, or in 1000. Of course
there may be circumstances which
will modify the figures in some
cases. Charms of manner or ap-
pearance, the possession of marked
talents or even wealth may raise
the percentage. But the figures
represent the grand average; and
no woman can hereafter make the
excuse that she did know when the
favorable time for action had ar
rived.
What may be expected after the
performance of the ceremony may
be cleaned from partial tabulation
by Sir Francis Galton. This en-
inent peer, from an investigation
of 205 couples, found that So per
cent Of wives had good tempers,
while only 46 per cent of the hus-
bands were similarly endowed. OF
the husbands "22 had mild and do
cile wives, and "a of them had fret
full, violent and masterful wives.
It was also found that % per cent of
wives are fretful, 13 per cent violent
and per cent masterful. This would
seem to indicate that the position
of husband is rather more desirable
than that of wife.-Albany Journal.

nifty. He is called the vejda and
sometimes the "uncle" or the "first

a staff with a silver knob. He, too,
must be able to read and write, and
he must keep to the traditions and
ceremonies Of old.-N. Y. Sun.

An Obstinate Woman.

There is a tradition of Glouces.
tershire scold, whose obstinate dis
position defied the ducking stool.
After the first "sousing" in the
village horse pond, her husband ex-
claimed: "Molly! Molly! Wool
thee promise 1 never to scold at /
again?"
AS soon as Molly recovered her
breath she replied in a laundering
voice of moroseness No, I won't
doc nothing O. tn zort p
Molly had another souse, and the
husband met with the same acri-
monious response to his anxious
interrogation. The sousing was re-
peated, but Molly continued to be
obdurate and contumacious.
"You may drown l." shouted
Molly; "but wool never give in"
They did not run the risk of
drowning Molly, but released her,
for the husband was convinced that
she would "rather drown than re-
fuse to wag her red rag at un" when
ever she felt inclined to do so. It
did not cure Molly. She became
as great a scold as ever she had
been before her public "sousing."
Some years after that critical pun
ishment the Lord Of the Manor met
John at Court Leet and inquired !:
"Well, John, how does Molly get
on now with her scolding?"
"Oh, Squire, her be pretty nearly
cured ont"
did the ducking stool do that
business?"
"Oh, no; let her jaw on as long
as her liked. l get her no back
answers. l zot quiet and blowed me
bacca, and her soon dropt her scold-
ing and be now as good woman as
they be made."- National Review.

all the mail was dumped. The
