est Railroad is the title of a charming lit
tie volume issued by the Passenger Depart
ment of the New York Central q Hudson
River railroad, with new and attractive
features added to the publication Of former
years.
The frontispiece is fine view of that no
BILE structure, the Washington Bridge across
the Harlem, but that is merely a hint Of the
beauties that follow. No one who glances

sive idea of the wealth Of scenery through
which the road passes, not to mention the
valuable information that is systematically
arranged throughout the book in regard TO
the hotels and boarding houses, the prices
of board, the fares, the distances, the posi-
bic excursion, and, in a word, all that that
usually inquiring person, the Summer tour
ist, can possibly think of desiring to learn.

For afternoon gowns the India silk is
the chosen fabric and a pretty way to
add to the effect of the lace, since lace
Is de rigueur, is to have a frill of plain

THE ORIGIN or SOAP.
Cleansing Substances Used by the Al

clients.
Soap was unknown to the ancients.
1t is fact, however, that the word soap
does occur In the translation of the Old
Testament. but the original Hebrew
words neither and borith were better
translated as meaning mineral and
vegetable alkali Homer was unnc.
quainted with soap: and from his
Odyssey we gather that the Greek ladies
cleansed themselves first with alkaline
water, and then, in order to remedy the
caustic alkaline effect, anointed them
selves with oil or fat.
Soap Is first mentioned by Pliny, who
informs us that the Gauls manufactured
a soap from goats tallow and the aka
line ashes of beechwood. Ii was intro
dueed by the c1nquerors to the Roman
danes to afford a means of identifying
the skin, and with view to reduce the
dark color of their hair to that of the
Teutons.
After this, another substance, the
crude fat obtained from the sleeps
wool. known as 9sypus, was most ex-
tensively employed as a cosmetic.
Ovid informs us that the Greek
ladies employed this fat, with
very satisfactory results, as a
safeguard against wrinkles, and
To promote the growth of the hair.
The Roman ladies, learning of the sue
cess attending the employment of
esypus were not slow in following
their example. and very soon adopted
il as their favorite article for the toilet.
When Rome was conquered by the
barbarians, this favorite unguent APP
pears to have fallen into disuse, and we
hear nothing more of it until few
years ago, when an industrious chemist
on the continent prof. Liebreich) care
fully made the crude product ''esypus"

encircles the bust passing under the
arms to fasten at the back, and the
cross draperies of net are held in place
by another band that defines the

rises lightly around the hips, and
above this is pointed girder
of gray crepe de Chine weighted

sleeves are heightened by three
releaux in black velvet, with
a very slender cord laid in the hollows.

Noble Deed of registering Rounder on
south Clark street.
Many mine shows a vein of metal
when you least expect it. Many man
surprises you with kindness when his
whole aspect seems forbidding. A par
ticularly tough-looking fellow was
weaving unsteadily down the levee the
other day. his ragged clothing badly
soiled, and his stubby beard darl<ening
face that was red and bloated from
excuses. lie was walking alone, and
was talking little in a maudlin way.
One of the myriad little children who
live-God alone knows how--in that
forbidding place was trundling a toy
wheelbarrow along the uneven side
walk, and in the battered vehicle was
her kitten, a sorry-loolSing thing, but
the only pet she had. She came in the
way of a brutal young fellow, and he
kicked the barrow-cat and all-clear
into the middle of the street. lie had
some companions and they laughed ut
the flying, sprawling. complaining cat;
laughed even harder when the little
girl cried bitterly at the ruin of her toy
The lonely, sOliloquizing, rough-faced
rounder stopped unstcadily a moment,
and then he launched himself into the
group of heartless rowdies. lie was
match for at their best, and in a mo-
ment they had scattered and fled. The
little girl had been penncd in IA doorway
and could not escape. lie saw her, the
tears cutting pitiful white down her
dirty, frightened face, and he stopped
and gathered her in his arms.
Come on, my beauty" he said, with
heartiness. wen buy another bar
row" And he carried her into the
nearest store where everything is kept
and anything is sold and found the thing
She wanted. The dealer had seen--as
had the entire block--the kick, the pun
ishment and the generous effort to
tighten the child's heart. and he set a
handsome price on the wheelbarrow.
But the rounder paid it--paid it royalty
and walked home behind the little
girl and her kitten as proud as king.
