Great Is the Bernhardt.

Manufacturers, designers, modistes and
dry goods merchants the world over owe
Sara Bernhardt debt of cr%1it fer the
innovations she has introduced and the
changes she is constantly making in the
fashion plate. 1t was Sara who revived
the sconces and candelabras, and filled
them with wax candles to dress and to
dine by. 1t was Sara who converted the
loose, unsightly wrapper into the be-
wildering, beautiful and becoming tea
gown. 1t was Sara who designed the
La Tosca, and sent hundreds of dress
makers into the madhouse trying to
make bodice without darts or seams.
It was Sara who brought out the nous
quetaire glove, the Louis XIV coat and
the hats of the artists.
1t was Sara who ordered sable round
the bottom Of a white silk ball dress,
white Angora down the front of a break
fast robe and black lambsldn sleeves in
her seal jacket. 1t was Sara who brought
out the wolf and feather boa. Sara re-
vived the Elizabethan ruff, the Medici
collar and the passementerie pieces to
cover up her long neck and flat chest.
Sara it was who built up the sleeve
heads and made every fat woman in the
land who copied her look as though she
had an apartment house ON each shout
der. Sara revived the miniature craze
and the fad for barbaric ornaments, and
now she has given all creation the Egyp-
tian fever. Looked at from any stand
point Sara is great girl.-New York

New Features of House Decoration.

We who are at all observant will no
tice two very radical departures in re-
cent forms of house decoration. First,
the prevalence of natty little porticos or
mantels over doorways and windows,
and secondly, the advent of new idea
of curtain dressing, requiring a valance
along the top where heretofore the cur
tain pole was a conspicuous feature. The
over door mantel vastly improves a room,
and the same device arranged over the
windows gives an excellent opportunity
to display the bric-a- brac.
In one room the walls are furnished
with deep frieze with picture mold
ing dividing it from the lower part.
These walls are in pale ivory, deepened
into browns on the reddish cast along the
frieze-the colorings that one often sees
in old ivory, soft and subdued. Over the
doorways and windows sharp bits of cid
blue and cardinal stand out in the brio
a-brac.--Philadelphia Uphoisterer.

Sir Humphrey Davy, it is said ''rare1y
washed himself; and on the plea of saw
ing time he used to put on his clean linen
over his dirty, so that he has been known
to wear at the same time five shirts and
five nai5s of stockings" Here is a rare
example Of the Indifference of the man
of genius to the mere husk, or series of
husks which keep that royal part of
him, his mind, in working order. Yet
was not Sir Humphrey mere sloven,
content at all times with the first article
of clothing upon which he might lay his
hand Though he was so reckless in the
matter Of shirts upon common occasions,
when he used to go fishing she would
wear green, to resemble vegetable life
as much as possible, so that the trout
might have some difficulty in distin-
gushing the biped from the mere roots Of
the field; and when shooting he wore a
scarlet cap, ito shield himself from acct
dent from other guns. All the Year

Gala Lilies as a Table Decoration.

At small and elegant company given
recently the hostess departed from the
customary serving of ices in glasses and
had them in real Gala lilies The large
stamen was removed and the flower CON
tanned quite as much ice as the ordinary
receptacle. When the cup settled was
laid on an exquisite plate the effect was
very attractive. Callas filled with
lunches of sweet English violets make
a beautiful decoration when piled in
pyramid form on the center of dinner
table. They are also equally pretty
placed at each plate.
Callas by themselves are cold, formal
stiff flowers, except when grouped with
growing plants, but filled with small
blossoms like violets, forget-me-nots,
tiny rosebuds, or even larger flower,
softened with bit of maidenhair fern
or asparagus, they become things of
beauty. If lily of this kind be filled
with strawberry ice, with forget
not stuck in the center, it would be a
charming, patriotic combination suitable
for the Fourth of July.
1t is a flower that may be used in
numerous ways, and a woman of ideas
can give a Gala party that would be a
revelation in the way of beautiful enter
tainments. The flower is one that COM
bines both useful and ornamental quail
titles in an unusual degree, and its large
cup makes it very desirable for such
purposes.-Indianapolis Tribune

A paper on 'sThe Electrical Treatment
of Sewage" was read by Mr.. w. Web
ster. f. c. s., at meeting of the Society
Of Chemical Industry, in London. This
gentleman has devoted some ten years
to experiments on the problem, and
has carried out some experiments on
a large scale with the sewage of Stafford,
which is of an exceptionally complex
character. He has succeeded in reducing
the albuminoid ammonia to IA parts
per 100000, thus leaving an effiuent
which may be turned into any stream or
river. He uses cast iron electrodes, find
ing that platinum is too costly, and car
bon disintegrates in the presence of mas
cent oxygen and chlorine. He places the
electrodes in shoot eighteen inches
deep, two feet wide and 200 feet long.
Twenty-Five pairs are connected in
series, and a pressure of 1.S volts is used
between them. Sir Henry Roscoe had
entire control of the experimental works
for about a month, and found that from
20 to so per cent. of the organic matter
was precipitated as a sludge. From the
experiments on 10000 gallons of sewage
it is estimated that to deal with 10000
600 gallons in twenty-four hours at Sal
ford 400 indicated horse power will be
necessary, as for each gallon 81 ampere
hour is required. Experiments made
during the lecture on London sewage
showed that a tiocculent precipitate was
formed within a few seconds. If sew
age sludge be of any value as manure it
should be economical to use that pro-
duced by this process. New York Tele-

The Insect World.


Entomologists generally concede that
upward of 100, 600 species of insects have
been recognized and classified; some au-
thors even place the number as high as
100000, while it is not at all improbable
that this vast number may not represent
more than one-tenth of the number ac-
tually inhabiting the globe. Not less
than one-half of the whole number be-
long to the order coleopatera, or beetles,
which order is by far the most numer-
ously represented of all. The lepidop-
terra, or butterflies, have thus far yielded
some $4,000 species, or about one-thir-
tenth of the total number Goo, 1000, esti-
mated by Speyer for the world at large,
and an equal number may perhaps be
credited to the hymenopteraC bees, wasps,
etc., the hemiptera (bugs) and diptera
(flies).
The orthoptera or straight winged in
scots, which include the locusts, grass
hoppers, ETC., are considerably less nu-
merous The species with Melted wings
(neuroptera) probably number some place
between 1900 and 5000. Insects are, of
course, most numerously developed in
the tropics, but they are not rare by any
means in the coolest regions which have
yet been visited by man.-St. Louis Re
public.

A Collector of Skeletons.
gram

In southern Egypt, near the Nubian
border, there lives a rich retired Parsee
whose sole ambition is to enlarge a col
lection of skeletons of eminent persons.
In his tropical garden, amid fountains,
flowers, rare exotics, statuary and bow
ers of equatorial verdure, stand dozens
of skeletons of famous warriors, states
men, kings, queens, lawyers, ecclesiasts,
etc. This earthly paradise earring the
presence of the skeletons) is four acres in
extent, and is surrounded by a high
stone wall provided with four grated
iron doors. 1t is believed that he keeps
a score of men in every community in
the world constantly on the lookout for
rarities in his CHASTITY line. To a CORE
spondent of Berlin newspaper he ad-
mitted that he was the owner of the
bones of George III of England, and
even limited that he would like to have
the bones of our Washington to stand
beside them. Is it not possible that this
crank has the bones of many Americans
that are missing?-St. Louis Republic.

Transient Effects Of lynch Law.


do not believe that lynch law has the
salutary effect that judicial hanging exer-
cises on the criminally inclined. The guilty
wretch who is hustled into eternity by the
former process is rarely given time to realize
the awful fate in store for him, and not until
the moose is around his neck does the awful
horror of hopelessness dawn upon the hard
ened criminal The murderer executed le-
gally has ample time to gain complete reali-
cation of the fact that on a certain day he
will be deliberately taken out to the gallows
and hanged by the neck until he is dead. In
the majority of cases it is talked about,
printed in the newspapers, and carries with it
warning to the hardened that has ample
time to engraft itself upon the mind and act
as an everlasting reminder of the command
ment, 'Thou shalt not kill"
In the case of a lynching, morbid interest
is awakened for brief period. but quickly
dies out, leaving scarcely a trace behind.
Let any one make the comparison and
he will be satisfied with the truth of this
proposition. If he would endeavor to recol-
lect who had been lynched during the past
would find it difficult to recollect details.
But could be recount the particulars of many
year he could call to mind very few cases and
hangings occurring during the period named.
