 This is pretty, ia 1t not2 China silk. in pink, lowered belted in at the waist over the shirring with . broad brown velvet band. collar of gnipure lace, which Is all In vogue now, and white sleeves, with pink 0verlpuffs. Brown bows make it light and airy looking.
 This one is more suitable for fifteen years-materlal, old blue; style, a la princess. It is striped ct the bottom with blue and white rows that have . satin finish. The bodice Is made sur plice fashion, trimmed with Q wide plaited white ruhae. Then over this the waist is cut coat-style, and the stripe is brought into play here with very good results. Under the coat laps comes a loose belt of blue velvet rib bons, tied in a long bow.
 Here's a pretty hat to go with it. light cream straw, trimmed in the front with big old blue bow that is caught down with little pearl flies. There is . little guipure lace introduced with the bow, and a little knot of the ribbon and lace at the back, which Is turned up in huted fashion. A great crescent, made of pearl, is stuck through the bow.
 A soft brown China silk looks well this way-gathered in soft at the belt, with silk band of silk a few shades lighter. A big puff of this lighter ma terial, reaching from the neck quarter way down to the waist, and trimmed with deep rufle of full lace. A. fine gauge straw of brown and cream inter mingled looks pretty with 1t, tfimmed with an Alsatian bow in front that stretches way round to each side. On top of the crown is graceful spray o1 yellow blossoms.
 It is surprising how much black is used for children. It would seem to be the last color in the world to put on them, and yet their dresses are in many cases trimmed with deep ruffles of black lace. Materials for cloaks vary very little from what we big folk wear. Even the cut is very much the same, except, perhaps, that box plaits in the back are used more. The SSft lawns and grays are the prevailing colors, and the capes if capes there be, are usually lined with shot silk. The two coats in the illus tration are for very young children and therefore, of course, are quite dis tinctive in style. For young boys colors are worn considerably, and fur is gooG trimming. For very young lads white serge is very pretty and becoming, made with blouses under their jackets. The

THE social discOntent in Europe under the enormous burdens of militarism is breaking out in ways to alarm govern ment and society. The most disquiet- ing manifestation is the activity of anarchists in Paris. The first of May is the great holiday of organized labor in the capitals of Europe, and the socialists are anticipating that festival and pre- pairing the way for popular outbreaks. There will be plenty of need for the military, for whose support the in- dustrial classes are so heavily taxed, to suppress disorders before the May day festival is over.

A RELIGIOUS contemporary empba. sizes the greatness of little things, and reminds us that little words are strong, est and most pithy; little lkindnesses are most in demand and do the most good; little lakes are stillest, and little farms are the best titled. When nature would make anything especially rare and beautiful she makes it little little pearls, little diamonds. Agur'a is a model prayer; but then it is a little one, and the burden of the petition is for but little. Daylight itself is made up of little sunbeams. And life is an aggregation of littles.

THE good people of Philadelphia are not little chagrined by the manner in which they have been taken in by Mir Spreckels. When he came there and made his boast that he would spend 8, ,0O0, 900 to beat the sugar trust, he at once became the idol of the town. So the name of Spreckels became word to conjure with, and no great gathering of business men was considered complete without him. He got his refinery under way, his ships came freighted with tons of raw sugar to the noble wharves he built, and down came the prlce of sugar. He was formally thanked by the commercial and trade Organizations for his public spirit and enterprise, and quite recently he was introduced to an immense audience as the foremost citi- zen of Philadelphia, and as the cham pion of the people against monopoly. Now he surrenders to the combine, bags his millions of profit, and returns to California whence he came. His mis- sion appears to have been, a gigantic bluff.

eTILL DROPPING DEAD.
Eood Sent to Starving Russians seIzed D,
 Rabid Ofacia1g

Rabid Oh1cla1s.
 BosToN, April 1.-Herman Friedlend, newsdealer of Rocksbury, has just re. ceived letter from his father, who lives at present in the town of Arigola, upon the Russian frontier, which tells hor- rible tale of suffering among the Russian people.
 The letter says that in spite of food sent from America, people are dropping dead In the streets from starvation.
 The food as it is distributed through the infected country Is seized by rabid omcials and shared among them.
 1mpervious to human suffering, they see men snd women dying in all the an- guish of starvation, and with a curse visit the supply station and take all the food to their homes, leaving never s crust for their starving people,
 The famished crowd is desperate. Many are insane from hunger, and it is only the fear of prison, or a worse fate, bred in Russian from his birth, that prevents rebellion.
 He says: ''There is no hope for relief. The power exercised by Russian officials is absolute. There is nothing for the people to do but starve, unless help shall come from outside, and that speed ily."

We women change our fashions al- most as often as we change our minds.
 In truth, every time we change our minds our fashions get touch of the departure. The thing we regard one day with affection and delight we push carelessly away the next as old-fash- toned and worthy of nothing but to be discarded. We watch eagerly for a shadow of change in any of the prevail ing styles, and if we see anything on another woman which is a slight ad- vance upon our own gown, we immedi- ately go home and have the garment changed; or, if that is impossible, get a 0ew one.

THE iron works of Dubuque, Ia, have undertaken to build a boat on an en- tirely new plan, the object of which is to navigate both river and ocean. It will have one bow and two sterns, each of which will have a rudder and screw. so if one is disabled there will remain half the power to reach port. She will carry an adjustable center board which it is thought will answer the purpose of deeper draught. The boat will be about 300 feet long and 30 to 35 feet beam. She will be built entirely of steel and will cost about $2O0, ,OOO. It is expected she will carry a cargo in weight equal ing about 60,0O0 bushels of wheat in five feet of water. This vessel when finished will be sent to the Amazon. She will then go up the river 800 miles or more to the coffee plantations and take from them direct products which now have to be transferred half dozen times before reaching market.

J., April Count William de Kochejay, who claims to be a member of a very wealthy family of Paris, and who, some time ago, was accused of de- serting Miss Scovil, fleeing the city shortly afterward, was arrested in Phila- delphia on 8 bench warrant and brought here. He was arraigned before Judge Hugg and sentenced to five 6ears' inn prisonment in State Prison for bigamy. The complainant was his frat wife, Miss Scovil. When arrested in Philadelphia he was found living with another young woman whom he claims to have married. Miss Scovil is daughter of Col. James Scovil and sister of Lawyer Harry Scovil.

A solution of the question of corporal punishment in schools and reformatory institution is offered in the method adopted at the Newark reform school, for disciplining refractory inmates, the agent employed being electricity. There are objections to this form of punishment, however, that will have to be overcome before 1t is adopted for general use. Electricity is not an agent to be used indiscriminately.

The pair had been married to each other seventeen years ago but they were divorced shortly after their marriage at that time and subsequently, the woman married and wac divorced from three husbands. Now after a lapse of seventeen years she is again married to the first husband. This indeed is a sad state of affairs and only the divorce law could bring about such result.

The Poison of Eel's Blood.

If the conclusions drawn by late ex- perimenters are sound it would seem that were an eel provided with an ap- paratus to inject it's own blood into a wound as the serpent injects his venom, an eel in the mud would be even more objectionable than snake in the grass. Prof. Masso, the Italian scientist, in experimenting with the blood of eels has discovered by inject ing it under the skin of rabbits, frogs, mice, guinea pigs, etc., that it is rank poison, being similar in action to the venom of snake of the viper kind. The viper's bite, it is well known, causes death by paralyzing the action of the respiratory organs; death from eel blood poison is similar in nearly every detail. In regard to the cure of per son or animal injected with cells blood, Prof. Masso says that stimulants usual. ly given are wholly useless. and that Che only hope of a cure lies in trache- otony and the artificial pumping of air into the lungs.

What the scientists Predict.

If the several theories of the dream ing scientists are to be believed, the dentist will have to hunt other em- ployment on and after the year 5000 A. D. These philosophers tell us that as man becomes more human he will lose his beastly adornments. First the hair; next the eyesight and sense of smell and taste, and finally become en- tirely toothless. Cooked food is said to be the cause of the jaw becoming weak CT and smaller each generation. There is now no room left for the wisdom teeth or the upper incisors. The wis dom teeth are always retarded, their first appearance causing great pain and their crowded condition bringing about early decay. The second incisors put out at the side of the gums in the shape of ''tusks," this last deformity being peculiarly American. Besides these the teeth of civilized people show other i'm perfect developments wholly unknown among savages. The same suppression has been observed in the outer pair of superior incisors. This is also owing to a reduction in the size of the jaw. There is one consolation at any rate: When we have lost our wisdom teeth and our embryo tusks our dental formula will entitle us to a species of our own, apart from the man-like apes. But the condition of the thirtieth cen tury man, blind, toothless, bald, and without taste or smell, will hardly be one which we of this ,uncivilized age should envy.

He Was Too Foremost.

An excellent joke is turned upon a certain representative in Washington, who, in a recent speech, acclaimed against Mrs. President Harrison for her supposed gross breach of delicacy in causing the Harrison coat of arms to be used on the new china for the white house. As matter of fact, the United States coat of arms and the Limoges trade mark are to be found on the china, and the representative is endur- ing the chagrin attending his display of ignorance as he best can. The mistress of the white house is allowed several thousand dollars for the expenses of the executive mansion, and this is the en- tire amount from which she has to pro- vide for repairs, replacing worn furni- ture, entertaining the numerous off, cials, foreign and native, supporting the conservatory, and numberless other expenses entirely official
