Photographic Timer.

The photo-engraver has long ielt the want
of a means of automatically taking care OF
the exposures of the Photographic appar-
atus, especially in a gallery containing sew
eraI cameras. AN invention has now been
brought into reouisition which automatic
cally opens and shuts the lens tubes of the
camera and gives such a length of exposure
TO the plates as is determined by the setting
of a movable contact piece upon the PERI
pherv of a clock dial at a number CORE
spending to the number OF seconds required
for the exposure.

The newspapers generally in announcing
the birth OF a child to the young Philadel-
phia lady who married the Count Pappen-
helm lost April have fallen into the error OF
calling her the Countess" 1t ought to be
pretty well known by this time that she has
no right to the title. 1t was not learned
until after the marriage that she could not
attain to the rank of her husband, and the
fact aroused a great deal of indignation
among Miss Wheeler's friends, but the de-
cree of ROYALTY went all the same. She has
received some recognition from the Bava-
rian nobility. to be sure, but this was small
satisfaction when they refused to accord her
a title.

Silk retiring robes (this is the aesthetic
term) are gotten up in very elaborate fash
ion. so much SO that a woman with a frugal
mind might be in imminent danger of re-
naming awake all night in order to avoid
missing the numberless irills and furbelows
with which her nocturnal garment is
adorned. These dressy affairs frequently do
duty as morning robes, gowns OF silk mere
lv feather stitched being donned at night.
The cheese-cloth night dress is the outcome
OF the aesthetic craze, and is really a most
delightful aud artistic garment. 1t can be
made at 4 very slight expense and in any

school of aesthetics savs.that she merely takes
several straight breadths of material, sews
them together and shapes the shoulders
slightly; from shoulder TO waist she leaves
a Slit, into which the sleeves, which consist
merely of the width of the cloth are sewn,
and they are gathered into a band at the
wrist; the luliness front and back is held
into a straight neck band. and the garment
is deeply hemmed at the foot; it hangs in
long picturesque folds, which suggest the
plastic lines in the drapery of a Grecian
statue. There is another delightful thing
about these gowns, they do not require the
services of a skilled laundress, and need
only to be washed, but not ironed; when
nearly dry they are run through the hands
again and again, until they almost look-as

about That Waste Silk.

To the several hundred inquiries about
waste silk it may be said the fabric orig
mated about five years ago as the invention
of an AmericanIzed Englishman in Provi-
dence, II. L. 1t is not raw silk, which is the
thread as reeled from the cocoon. but
''combings'' taken from the boiled of"
silk. as it is cleansed to remove the rather
strong gum in which the caterpillar silk
worm mummifes himself and which does
not smell at all pleasant.
1t always makes anyone smile to hear silk
raising advised as a refined business for
women. Some people may like it, but L had
as soon take care of a barn as keep u silk
worm stable, and the final performance of
standing all day over a boiler of very dirty
scaIding water washing the cocoons does not
at ali fit into the picture of an industry for
ladies.
There is a distinct and interesting differ
ence between the fbers of wool, silk and
cotton fabrics, aud it is worth studying. As
the silkworm makes its fiber it is a soft
mucous. and the fluid is secreted from the
nose. as it were, in two streams which COM
biue at once in an infnltesimal double
thread.

buckles and conform in all ways In her
dress to the same rigid economy.

Corsets, which in the time of our grand
mothers were ungainly AFFAIRS, made of some
coarse, heavy material, with steel as stiff as
knife blades, are now extremely elegant
affairs, almost too lovely to be concealed by
the tailor-made waist, which is not nearly
as ornamental. The corset, in spite of the
reform waist and hygienic bodice. holds its
own, its popularity being evidenced by the
superior fit and quality of the material from
which it is made. Some magnificent ones
are made of superb damasse silk strewn with
gold or silver flowers, but the favorite
material is rich satin, either in
black or paler tints to match the underwear.
A charming example is a corset made of
heavy black satin, lined with helIotrope
faille and stitched with silk of the same
color; around the top of the bust is an en-
broidered vine of heliotrope, and between
the lining and the outside is a layer OF deli
cately scented sachet powder, the scent per-
| tanning TO the same fewer. Few women
really know how TO put on a corset. Once
fastened it should be pulled down so as to
bring the waist line into position. Then 1t
should be laced, not too tightly, but quite
firmly, the strings being secured so that they
will not slip; it should be laced so as to sus-
tain the bust without in the least compress
ing il. A weli-made corset should be like a
weIl-made shoe, and should fit every portion
of the figure without pressing it in any par
ticular spot.
A great novelty in the way of a head
covering for a small boy gives him almost
the appearance of a diminutive man-at-arms
of the ff .eenth century; It is really identical
with a military visor, and of gold and scar
let brocade in a dispered pattern. 1t is ad.
justed closely to the head, neck and ears,
leaving only the face visible; it is lined
with quilted silk and is altogether a warm
and very sensible head covering for winter
wear.
