Medical circles in Berlin are agitated,
declal es the New Orleans Picayune, be-
cause Professor Koch is about to start on
a three months trip to Egypt, and take
the secret of the preparation of his much
discussed lymph along with him. The
willy doctor, though he has disclosed the
ingredients of this potent specific, and
Ioade public the general outline of its
preparation, has taken care to keep to
himself the exact formula. OF course,
If the lymph will do the half that is
claimed for it, it is enormously valuable
and nobody probably understands this
better than Professor Koch himself. 1t
may be that this is the reason why the
German Government SO abruptly dropped
IT'S announced plan of undertaking the

Birds continue on sale and to be worn,

tiers against wearing them that the FASH

The sclbornc Society in London, Of
which Lord Tennyson is President and
the Princess Christian q patroness, with
branches and honorary Secretaries and
Treasures all over the country, has
among its objects to "preserve animals,
wild birds and plants from unnecessary
destruction; to discourage the wearing
and use, for ornaments, of birds and
their plumage."

every person who wears birds that she

USE AND ABUSE OF PERFUMES.

Let fair woman beware of using per-
fumes of pronounced aud aggressive
odors, lest she offend and ALLEVIATE the
regard of her friends. One of the chief
causes of the separation Of the King of
Holland from his first wife was the pen
chant of Queen Sophia for the scent of
musk, which odor was intensely disagree
able to herroyal consort So generously
did she indulge her passion for this per-
fume that not only were her own apart
mcnts permeatad with it, her clothes,
hair and belongings offensive whit, but
any room through which she passed
would smell for days after of her favorite
perfume. The secret of the fascinating
fragrance which seems to surround and
emanatc from dainty women lies ever in
the constant use of most delicate and
faint perfumes whose odor is intangible
and suggestive rather than in the liberal
use of permeating aud intense odors,
which arc sure to offend some sensitive
olfactory organism. r. Chicago Post.

TOWELS Fon WEDDING PRESENTS.

Handsome towels arc now SO desirable
in the eyes of housekccpers that sets
comprising dozen, OF even half dozen,
with more or less hand decoration, are
among the most approved welding gifts
where consanguinity or other circum-
stance does not call for offerings of gold
or silver. The preference is given by
most people to huckabucl1 towels. The
material comes by the yard in excellent
quality, and in widths exceeding that of
the rcady-made fringed towels. The
ends are hcmmed below an inch-wide
hue of drawn work. or they may be sim
ply hemstitchcd and needle decoration
added with white or colored linen. When
the latter is chosen an effective DESIGN to
work in dark blue is the onion pattern
seen in blue Dresden dinner sets. A
s&illful hand can copy the figuring from
q plate rim, arranging it in a straight
band with double line of blue above
and below, or tho pattern can DO
stamped upon the material by profess
sional hands.-Detroit Freo Press.

Only one year ago, according to the
statistician cf the Scientific american,
ninety per cent. of the total trade of the
Spanish Americas was controlled by
European countries. They still have
eighty per cent. of it, he adds, hut they
are fast losing their hold and the United
States is edging in. The best evidence
of this is that half of the intelligent peo-
pie OF Mexico are studying English,
while many of our people are studying
Spanish. Americans are starting stores
and even factories in Mexico right along.

A LULLABY.

Tiny rays OF golden light
Through the half-closed shutters stream
Shifting lines upon the night
Slender Us the moons first beam.
Hearts arc gladdened by tho glow
+ Shed upon tho winter afr,
And voice that's eoft and low
Steals from out the easement thcre
Soft and low mother siugs
To the baby ON her breast;
While the tender music brings
Thoughts Of loving hearts at rest,
Years fly back; look again
Into two eyes sweet and deep;
Hear mothers low refrain
"Sleep. my little baby, sleep.n.
Pausing at tho cottage gate,
In the stream OF golden light
For little time wait
Years hayo lived again that night.
Days thought had passed away,
Came back to me with q sigh;
Called up by home-like ray:
And mothers Lullaby.
Then the mothers sweet song dies;
Through closed blinds I see tho bed
Where sleeping baby lies
Smiling lips and curly head.
Then prayer I whisper low
Bless the little ono unknown,
For the sake of long ago
Then go my way alone.

Most of the poetry appearing in cur.
rent periodicals is written by women, as
serts the Boston Traveller. The sex has
an easier knack of ycrsihcation than man,
as well rs q more sentimental cast Of
mind, and these arc the qualities mostly
distinguishing the poetry of tie day.
Even in literature as in everything else
man is more practical than ever before,
and now takes to prose in preference to
poetry, because it pays better. But
woman is not whit behind him in this
line of writing, and, generally reviewing
the field, may be said to be more thar
holding her own in literary work.

The trust record thus far in 1891
shows, states Public Opinion, that the

in favor of the public, as against monop-

by no means cured.
