Watches IN Clri Cases,

Among tho latest novelties in the
way OF card cases is = very dainty little
one made OF very finely dressed leather.
In II corncrof tho case is set a tiny
little watch. Tho effect of this IS vcry
pretty, tnd, besides this, the combine
tionisa very useful one. Ladies' arc often
put to agrcat deal of trouble in taking
out their watches when on tho street.
Carrying this little time-picco set in
their card case or poclict-book saves
tncm all this trouble, and then, too,
whom making calls they have y. little
gcntlo remainder in their hands that
they must not ovcrstay their welcome.
Watches set in this way in card cases
n pocket-boolis arc much more popular
than the bracelet watch attachment.
Tho novelty was imported from Paris.
but Is now being manufactured very
largely in this country. The cost OF
these card cases and pockct-bool:s il
from seven dollars and fifty cents up.-

man who Processes to havo been an in

The toad pressed his elbows against
his sides downward. After a few smart
rubs his skin began to burst open along
his back, but he appeared 10 be uncon-
ccrncd, and kept on rubbing until he
had worked his skin into folds on his
sides and hips.
Then, grasping ono hind leg with his
fcrclcgs, no pulled tho skin from the

pulled il forward between his io.clcgs

whcrcupon ho forthwith began to sw;l-

ANCIENT AMERICAN CLOTHES.
Beautiful Fabrics Woven from the Hair of
Animals.

Beautiful Fabrics Woven from the Hair of
Animals.
The Nexicans spun and wove cotton,
and the Peruvians both cotton and wool,
into fabrics which the Spaniards found
in every way equal to anything they
had known at home. The Peruvians,
in particular, We're adopts in the art.
When Pizarro made the conquest Of
their country in 1888, he found in the
empire Of the Incas four species Of
animals little different from each other,
which be called the sheep Of the conn
try, because Of their general rescmb-
lance TO the Spanish sheep, and the
similar utilization Of its fiber. Two Of
the species, the llama and alpaca, had
been IL state Of domestication from
time iumemorial, the remaining
varieties, the vicuDa and the guanaea.
living in a wild state in the Businesses
Of the Andes From a variety Of sources
we are able 70 obtain minute details Of
the importance which the government
attached 70 these animals, and the large
part which they played in the domestic
economy Of the country.
The Peruvian wooden fabrics were of
three kinds-a coarse wooden cloth,
which they called avascs, which formed
the raiment Of the common people; q
finer variety. called eoDpi, worn By the
captains and officials; and still another.
