Shoes and StoclkIngt.

The smartest shoes for wearing with out
door attire are of seal brown leather. They
harmonic with any color, and are not SO
conspicuous as Russia leather. Some pret-
ty tennis shoes are OF o6ze skin IN medium
shades Of tan and brown. The newest
evening shoes are in black brocaded satin,
and are decorated with small paste buckles.
Stockings of fine Isle thread or silk are
seen embroidered in floral designs; others
are covered with dice pattern. Stockings
in a soft shade Of Russia leather. withopen
work fronts, look pretty worn with shoes
made of that material 1t would be impos-

for evening wear. The best make of silk
stockings are as transparent as the finest

A SAVAGE MAKING A r1RE.

The Papuans or Oceanic negroes, as the
dark skinned races are called who inhabit
New Guinea, New Caledonia, the Fiji
islands and other places in the Pacific
ocean, have a method peculiar to them
selves. They split piece of bamboo and,
making a notch in the convex surface Of
one of the pieces, they rub the sharp edge
of another piece in it with a motion like
saving They begin slowly, gradually in
creasing the speed until it is very rapid,
and hole is formed through the bamboo
by the rubbing. The fine powder or saw
dust rubbed off ignites with the friction,
and the sparks fall through the hole on
some dry tinder and brushwood, and fire
is soon obtained.

Points on Lubricntion.

A heavy bearing at low speed requires a
heavy lubricant il it be applied slowly; but
If it be applied fast light, greasy oil will
do the work we'll. In the former case a
heavy mineral oil will not fail to do the
work as we'll as any other oil, and at one.
third less cost, because other Oils of the
samo body and vscosity would be too
sticky to work economically.
A heavy bearing at high speed requires
an oil especially viscous, of very high fire
test, and gravity which permits of its
spreading quickly into the smallest crev.
ices, while its lubricating qualities are
such as will keep bearing cool. A light
bearing at low speed needs the lightest
possible oil which will do the work. A
light bearing of high speed is best lubri-
Gated by an oil Of high gravity and high
fire test, one that will not evaporate and
is entirely free from any acidity either in
its manufacture or in the process of re-
fining. The slightest gummy property in
an OIL of this sort renders it the most ex-
pensive article that can be used. The Wis
costly of an oil OF this sort should be in
proportion to the work required Of it,

The favorite colors are cream, light blue,
pink and mauve. Stripe patterns win be
worn more than checks this summey. The

The First Chew.

Mr.. William ID. Ilowells gives the fol
lowing description of the first chew of to-
bacco in Harper's Young People:
The boy said it was n peculiar kind of to-
bacco, and was known as molasses tobacco,
because it was so sweet. The boy was him.
self chewing vigorously on large quid,
and launching the juice from his lips right
and left like grown person, and my boy
took as large a bite as his benefactor bade
him. He found it rs sweet as he had been
told it was, and he acknowledged the apt.
ness of its name of molasses tobacco. 1t
seemed to him golden opportunity to ac.
quire a noble habit on easy terms. He let
the quid rest in his cheek, as he had seen
men do when he was not crushing it be
tween his teeth, and for some moments he
poled his plank up and down the canal boat
with a sense of triumph that nothing
marred
Suddenly the boat seemed to be going
round and round, and the sky wheeled
overhead. The sun was dodging about
strangely. Drops OF sweat burst from the
boys forehead; he let fall his pole and said
that he thought he would go home. The
fellow who gave him the tobacco began To
laugh and the other fellows to mock, but
my boy did not mind them. Somehow, he
did not know how, he got out of the canal
boat and started homeward, but at every
step the ground rose as high as his knees
before him, and then, when he got his foot
high enough and began to put it down, the
ground was not there.
He was deathly sick, and when be reached
home and showed himself white and hag
gard, to his frightened mother, he had
scarcely strength enough to gasp out a
confession of his attempt to retrieve the
family honor by learning to chew tobacco
In another moment nature came to his re-
lief, and then he fell into a deep sleep which
lasted the whole afternoon, so that il
seemed to him the next day when he woke
up, glad to find himself alive, If not so very
lively.
Perhaps he had swallowed some of the
poisonous juice of the tobacco; perhaps IL
had acted upon his brain withoat that
His father made no very close inquiry into
the facts, and he did not forbid him The
use Of tobacco. 1t was not necessary; IL
that one little experiment he had goi
enough for a whole lifetime.

A New Arc Iamp.

The Industrial World calls attention to
a new arc lamp which has been invented
by Pittsburg man, and which, it is said,
has decided advantages over all other
lamps Instead of the carbons being made
pencil shaped they are made in the form of
wheels, which are placed at right angles
to each other. One wheel is larger than
the other, and by an automatic arrange
ment within the lamp they are kept con-
stantly revolving. 1t is said that the lamp
is cheaper and simpler than the old style
lamps, while it's endurance is greater, the
claim being made that the lamp will burn
continuously for 500 hours without a re.

THE EARTH STAR IN DRY WEATHER.
Since the earth stars are leaness and des-
titute of the green coloring matter OF toll-
age, they belong to the great group OF
fungi, which includes mushrooms, pull
balls, molds and innumerable microscopic
sorts. All plants from which this coloring
matter is absent depend for their nutri-
ment upon a supply of organic material,
and it is therefore puzzle at first sight to
know how the sand loving earth stars can
obtain such food in the localities they fire.

The first sign of the fruit Is an egg
