The Sicwpan Mania.

The cooking fad that has taken posses
sion OF the officers of the English army
shows among other things what want
of originality there is among our future
Wcllinytons First, Colonel Burnett, OF
the Irish rifles, with his quarterInaster,
took the matter up and aroused public i'll
terest i'll the question. Then when his
model cookery hoisted Colonel Burnettin-
to good staff appointment, Major Dunn,
Army Service corps, took mp the parable
and won distinction III the art of making
dripping. Sir Evelyn Wood has added
his quota to the new reform. and now
Colonel Hutton has made a ragout of
all previous systems, and his advance
ment has made him very happy.
The latest victim of the stewpan ma
mia is the Duke OF Connaught, who has
shed the germs Of the epidemic upon all
and sundry, SO that several command

called upon to supply statement of the
whole Of the meals supplied to the men
during given week. When these reports
are all received they are to be boiled down
and converted into new regulations.

FASHIONS FANCIES.

Eton jackets and gypsy boleros are
very pretty and much worn.
Gay and pretty crib coverlets are made
of dark red or crimson wool, the stripes
fastened by gold silk floss.
Gauntlet gloves with heavy stitching
are fashionable, and so are the lovely
pearl red with black cording.
Little English walking hats are to be
Ia rage for morning promenades, and
are exceedingly jaunty, with their trim
| crowns and pretty trimmings.
y pretty street toilet is of blue broad
cloth, with four capes Of the same color
bordered with Persian trimming, green
on a red ground. 1t is extremely stylish
| and very wintery looking.
a charming gown is of white silk null
made over turquoise blue silk. The de
colette cOrsago ia bordered with full
ruffles OF null and the waist encircled
by a wide sash of pale pink silk.
Pointed plastrons of steel, gold and
Jet for velvet and cloth street garments
arc very popular. The Persian embroid-
cries are especially lovely, the colors in
the metallic threads blending most har-
mOniously.
In furs the elegant trois quarts capes
of stonemartin, mink and blue fox are
to be worn. The seal sacque, of course,
is as popular as ever, and when it has
sleeves of sable or mink is about as ele-
CANT and handsome a garment as heart
could wish.-New York Advertiser.

not seeking the scent on the earth. The
scent rises to him, even though the trail
be a day old. He runs through it as if it
were mist. No matter who has followed
over that trail or how often it has been
crossed he cannot be confused. Should the
fugitive double back the dog will run both

the scent on the far side. Nothing but

INC British Museum.

The number Of visitors in the British
museum III the daytime in 1891 was
474, 165, an increase Of 1882 over the
preceding year. The grand total of SD,
914, however, fell short of that of 1890,
the number of visitors i'll the evening
having declined. The number of per-
sons using the reading room shows a
slight increa.e, being 1873 $40, as COM
pared to 1871 ,S23 in 1880. The average
daily number Of readers has been Gj4.
The fluctuations IN the number of stu
dents IN the other departments is slight,
except in the case OF those working in
the galleries of sculpture.
The number Of these students has
fallen from II $50 in 1890 TO 6,625 in the
past year. This reduction, however, is
to be ascribed to the adoption by the
Royal Academy of Arts of more re-
strictive regulations for persons seeking
adnittance as art students.-LondOn

of the kind. "Cynic" is derived directly
from the Greek "kuou" and ''Euril,os.
meaning dog" and "doglike;" and. in
fact, canine" is derived from a Latin

To Ee "a Cigarette Smoker.

To be a cigarette smoker one must have
graceful, delicate hands; they are indis
pensable to roll cigarettes, as well as tt
play the harp The portion of the cigarette
that touches the smokers lips is never
damp. He does not cough nor spit, and
may live in a drawing room where the car
pet is of white velvet and never let grain
of ashes fall He replies instantly toevery
question; only cigar and pipe smokers de
lay dialogues to draw another puff. The
smoke does not soil his pink finger nails.
Evidently more marvellous gifts are
requisite to form a cigarette smoker THAI
a leader of men. 1t is easier to make OF
time money, and all the accessories OF
money, than to make of it perpetual at
tempt to satisfy an Unsuitable craving. Ii
is better to be useful than to sacrifice ones
life to a cruel and useless desire That is
why there are no more cigarette smoker
in New York-New York Times.
