Takes q last look while boarding ship.
The eve grows dim, the heart is sad.
What Is there left TO make him glad:
FAREWELL

The drum has sounded for the call
And yet he cannot leave his all.
FAREWELL
The lover, with an aching heart,
Has told his loved one they must part;
What pen can this deep sorrow tell,
When all earth's hope from heaven fell.
Farewell

And change the teardrop 10 4 spark Of mirth.
Think pleasantly, when we from friends depart,
And say. adieui with ever hopeful heart

You will find in my last picture gown suita-
Bile for such occasion in striped yelling, the
skirt being finished with q ruching and the cor
sage ornamented with n deep lace collar not
forming part Of the dress, and draped in the
graceful manner indicated. The straight col
lar is also covered with lace. A broad ribbon
sash completes the dress. The wide empire
belt will be among the next seasons novelties
1t Is usually Of gold embroidery and the deep,
tight-ftting cuffs are Of the same material,
meeting the very full upper sleeves at the
elbow.
An OPEN WINTER.
The weather prophets assure us that all signs
point to an open winter and it may be that fur
garments will not be called into requisition, at
least until after the holidays. For weather of
ordinary severity the long Russian jacket will
no doubt be greatly in vogue. 1t is made either
with faring or turn-down collar and is some
what shaped to the figure. IT is double breasted
and has very large buttons covered with the
material This Russian jacket is more stylish
than the REFER, SO popular last winter. With
IL will be worn the jaunty tourists hat in
French felt trimmed with ribbon and set off
with one or two rakish quilts, making up very
fetching outdoor costume.
THE PELERINE.
The ever-popular pelerines come In well for
October wear. They are made both double and
triple and also in one piece falling in graceful
folds from the collar. The double form is
usually made with a yoke which is pointed at
the back and is trimmed with velvet. The ma
terial is cloth and the modish tones royal blue
and gray. These little garments have great
deal Of style about them when trimmed with
cord or galloon. The ordinary cape is now
made with an under part which fastens nearly
| the whole way down and thus renders this style
| of garment much more satisfactory for cold
weather. This additional under part may be OF
a material in q different shade. thus increasing
the attractiveness of the cape, which should be
\ order not TO increase the width of the figure. A
very pretty combination for one Of these gar
ments is cinnamon brown cloth with dark brown
plush for the under part, or velvet may be sub
stituted for the plush.

WINTER LuNCHEoNs.

This winter ladies who take pleasure in enter
taining will dispense their hospitality in the
guise Of luncheons, which have this advantage,
that they serve to display the beauty of table
linen and service quite as efectually as a cere-
monious dinner, but don't cost half as much
and are o great deal more enjoyable. As rule
at these luncheons the gentlemen are conspicu-
Gus by their absence--a fact which prompts
the hostess to make the affair dainty, delicate
and particularly feminine, an arrangement in
pink or a symphony in pale blue. Gowns
should harmonic, at least in the exclusion Of
all glaring tones and striking effects.

she cautiously crept from under her wick-i-up
and found food and drink. A cake of bread
and q chunk Of dried beef was taken back ia
her bed and hidden for her next meal. Next
day her seemingly unconscious position was
resumed, so no watchers were placed over her.
When the sun was midway in the heavens
she heard q great commotion. A runner had
returned from his station on a neighboring
mountain who told that he had seen the
beacon fires Of Toolooloosa Three more
runners came before the sun had set, telling
how much nearer the beacons were. Oh! soon
he would come, the brave Firebrand. All were

The Universal Postage Stamp.

The Swiss papers are again taking up
the important subject of the creation of a
universal postage stamp" which shall
have currency in all the states included
in the postal union. AS the union now in-
cludes nearly all the civilized world the
movement ought to find Jealous advocates
in every nation.
The timbre post universal could be in
serted in any letter which required an an
swer and would effect most profitable
revolution in commercial and other CORE
spondence. None of the successive postal
congresses has yet ventured to deal prac-
tically with the subject, as they have been
too conscious of the financial difficulties in
several states where the post is profitable.
1t is hoped. ,.however, that the perseverance
OF the bureau of the union des postes In
Berne will in time find way to smooth
the difficulties and secure the accomplish
ment of this much needed international
blessing. Mall Gazette.

Speaking of the great danger with which
hypnotism is believed to be attended or
followed, IL is ridiculously exaggerated,
the reason being, think, that many Of
those who have written on this subject
have had very little practical knowledge
of the same. There is no danger whatever
in hypnotism when the hypnotist makes it
a positive rule never to hypnotize anybody
unless friends or relatives Of the subject
are present as witnesses in position to
control what occurs and what suggestions
are given to the subject. will here state
to all those timid individuals that hyp.
motto conditions cannot be used as mask
by the hypnotist to commit crimes against
humanity, as people usually believe, be
cause it is a fact that even If the sub.
jects are in the deepest degree of sleep they
cannot be compelled to do anything i'm.
moral or criminal if the subject is an hon.
est and upright person. The above has
been proved by numerous experiments,
and the subjects who are hypnotized posi-
lively refuse to obey where it is against
their own morals and character. They
will even awaken if anything very dis
agreeable is suggested. = Chicago Inter

MANY Millions of Pins.

Before the introduction of machinery
pins were made by manual labor in such
a way as to require their passage through
the hands of fourteen different persons
before completion. By machinery in
use at the present time it is estimated
that 100 pins are turned out per minute.
In England 5o,000,O00 pins are made
daily, of which 100000 are made l.,
Birmingham alone. Connecticut is the
principal center of the industry in the
United States.
What becomes of the enormous mum
Der of pins manufactured every year is
an interesting problem which is often
asked, but never satisfactorily answered.
1t is safe to say, however, that there are
more of these little necessities lost in a
year than any other article made.-H.

tell you what l meant After examining
nine hundred brass cannons which were
picked out Of the snow after Napoleon re-
treated from Moscow, each cannon deep
cut with the letter "N," | nscended a
tower Of some two hundred and fifty feet
just before sunset, and on each platform
there were bells, large and small, and
climbed up among the bells, and then as
reached the top all the bells underneath
me began TO ring, and they were joined by
the bells Of fourteen hundred towers and
domes and turrets.
Some Of the bells sent out faint tinkle
Of sound, sweet Naturalization that
seemed to bubble in the air, and others
thundered forth boom after boom, boom
after boom, until it seemed to shake the
earth and Oil the heavens-sounds so
weird, 50 sweet, so awful, so grand, SO
charming, so tremendous, so soft, SO rim
pling, so reverberating-cnd they seemed
TO wreathe and whirl and rise and sink
and burst and roll and mount and die.
When Napoleon saw Moscow burn, II
could not have been more brilliant than
when saw all the fourteen hundred tur.
rets nflame with the sunset, roofs of gold
and walls of malachite, and architecture
of all colors mingling the brown Of au-
tumnal forests, and the blue of summer
heavens, and the conaagration of morning
skies, and the green Of rich meadows, and
the foam Of tosliag seas.
The mingling of SO many color3 with so
many sounds was an enhancement
almost too much for human nerves,
or human eyes, or human ears.
