NOTES FOR THE WOMEN.
In. Lapland dress fashions have not
hanged for one thousand wears.

In. Lapland dress fashions have not
changed for one thousand years.
QUEEN ELIZABETH started the style of
wearing silk stockings and Marie An.
toinette Instituted the custom of wear
ing feathers in the hair.
NINE. HENRI GREvnLE, who has seen
more of this country than most French
women, says the American woman
makes too many acquaintance and too
few friends.
WHEN it is desired to have the gloves
cover the entire arm, as may occur with
evening dress, they are secured to the
shoulders by straps of satin ribbon that
buckle on the gown.
NOBODY wears wells adorned with
beauty spots now unless the dots OF
court-plaster are arranged with clever
eye to detail and effect-in other words,
every girl is her own veil maker, and
she places the small black disk in such
a place as will call attention to her most
beautiful feature.
A WEDDING costume worn by Lon.
don bride had rich white silk royale
train, bordered with white ostrich
feathers, and opened over beautiful
white velvet skirt richly embroidered
with pearls. One-half Of the bodice
front was Of white silk; the other OF
velvet draped with crepe de Chine, The
tulle veil was held in place by three
diamond stars.

Here is a peculiar legend of the IN
dians as told by Rev, Mr., Cook, The full
blooded Sioux who is the ministerial
representative Of the Episcopaliap de-
nomination at Pine Bidge Agency. The
legend which was related to the Indian
children at the agency was OF their
forefathers belief as to the cause OF the
disappearance of the moon. He said the
belief was that every time new moon
appeared it was signal for all the mice
in the country to gather themselves
together in one spot. When they as
sembled they separated in four great
armies. One army went to the north,
another to the south, third to the
cast, and fourth to the west. These
armies of mice travelled until they
reached the point where, from the place
Of starting, the heavens seemed to
touch the earth. Then they climbed
up the sky until they came to the
moon, which by this time was what we
call full. All of the four armies then
commenced nibbling at Luna, and
when they had eaten her all up the
mice would scamper back down the
heavens to the earth and wait for her
to show herself again, when the jour
ney and nibbling would be repeated by
the mice, And this is what the Indians
of early days believed was the oause of
the moon growing old and finally dis
appearing. -0maha Bee.

YEAR. states Countries lConsu'p tn

This is the first year since lS4S-49 that
middling upland cotton has fallen be-
low nine cents in New York. The crop
of that year, 1866, 93S, was the largest
raised up to that time, and the price
was 7,55 in New York. In 1S40-50, the
year following, the crop was decreased
10y $50, 900 bales, and the price in New
York was 1884, difference of nearly
5 cents in favor of the shorter crop
Now let us draw the lesson from these
relative facts and profit by it, We
have Just seen that the crop Of the
present season is over 100000 bales
larger than any ever raised in this
country, and the price is correspond
ingly low. With the large increase in
the acreage in the United States, which
is shown in table No. 2; the thousands
of acres of suitable lands in the south
west which are being gradually brought
under cultivation; the large increase in
the use of commercial fertilizers in the
older states, it is only question of
suitable seasons whether the yield will
go far beyond the demands of the neces-
sites of the world.
Let us note that the characteristics of
the inhabitants of all the cotton-pro-
ducing countries, the ease with which a
support can be made, the destructive
sirocco of India, which there causes
the young fruit and blooms to wither
and fall away, these and other causes
will perhaps always tend to lessen the
yield in localities otherwise peculiarly
adapted to this crop. The Russian eX-
pertinent will doubtless require several
years before it will, if ever, make any
sensible impression on the markets of
the world. Judging from these facts
and the experiments of the past, we
may reasonably suppose that there
will not be any material increase
in foreign crops for at least some
time. From this condition of things,
is it not a fair inference that the
southern farmer has it in his power to
control his agricultural destiny, and
that the remedy is to keep the cotton
crop within certain bounds? Cotton
must always be our staple crop, and it
is folly to advise against its cultivation,
but the following table, No. 2, will
show that the average yield per acre of
our cotton lands is about the same now
as it was twenty years ago, and this is
the result, although the number of cul-
tivated acres, the greater part of which
are fresh, has been more than doubled,
and there have been hundreds of thou
sands of tons of commercial fertilizers
used. What more forcible proof could
we have that cotton, under present
methods of cultivation, impoverishes
the soil?

The Death of Nero.

They have just made an interesting
discovery in Rome-very interesting to
the historian and interesting to the sin
telligent tourist" They have found the
very site of Nero's suicide. There had
been great deal of legend about the
tomb haunted by the raven, supposed
to be the spirit of the bad emperor
Suetonius, who wrote on the Twelve
Caesars" is picturesque in his par
ticulars, but not definite. He tells us
how the emperor's nurse found the body
and herself saw to its cremation. She
collected the ashes and placed them in
a porphyry urn in the garden of Do
mitian's villa. There is general be-
lief that the Pincian hill, just above the
Piazzo del Popola, was the site of these
gardens, but the belief has rested more
on tradition than on truth. However,
Sig. Butt, the engineer in the course OF
his excavations, has discovered stone
with an inscription very definitely fix
ing the site of the villa where the sui
eide was affected. Few spots in mod
ern Rome, in the Rome of our day, are
better known to tourists and travellers
and it is part of the curious irony Of
