THE NEW CoLORs.

French color cards of millinery fabrics
or the coming season display much
lighter shades than those usually worn
in winter. The leading series Of six
shades gradually darkens from pale rose
10 deep Provence red, though azalea
pink, rose gerauium ard peony, followed
by three metallic gray shades, familiarly
known as argent, nickel and platina,
while, as a matter of fact, steel grays are
much more largely represented in the new
importations. Next there is new pale
green shade called angelique, which
combines char nlngly with dark murier,
or mulberry leaf green, and the still
deeper ronces, or brler green. The
shades that experienced buyers mark as
most popular in Paris are eminencc or
bishops purple with reddish tingc, and
a tighter shade, called page purple, not
unlike the pinkish hues of mauve and OF
the violet now so fashionable. New
dahlis shades are almost as bright as
cherry red or magenta. The brown series
begins with n pale amber hue, aptly
called champagne, and deepens through
tabac and chestnut to loutre, which Il
seal and otter brown. Beige and castor,
the light browns of last season, promise
70 remain in favor. All the old blues
reappear, and to these are added a DARK
gray blue marked Iceland, a pale tint
called petit due, and the well known
peacock blue, which is almost green.

Mcphisto is a glowing, brilliant tint. An

Black Tea.

Black tea is prepared in A different
manner from the green. The leaves are
allowed to lie spread out on bamboo
!rays for considerable time; then they
l-e thrown up in the air by the wordmen,
tossed about, beaten, patted, until they
become soft or haccd, then tossed in
heaps and let alone until they begin to
change color, then they are shaken about
in tcl-pan, roasted over a hot fire,
rolled, shaken out, exposed to the air
again, turned over, partially dried, put
in the pan second time for five minutes
or so, then put in a sieve, placed over
the fire again, rolled about, put over
again, three or tour times, then packed
thickly in basket; the Chinaman makes
a hole through the mass 9 leaves with
his hand to give vent to the smoke and
steam; then over the fire they go, and
remain there until they are perfectly dry
-in fact, until the fire dies out. After
which it is picked over, packed aud as
sorted for the market. The difference
between black aud green tea is said to
be this: The latter retains all its acrid
properties, and if much Of it is drank it
produces nervous irritability and sleep
lessness, while the former has a great
deal Of this oil dried out Of it.-DetToi

A novel form Of inclined railway has
been built at Bridgenorth, England. II
connects the upper and lower parts OF
the town, communication between which
was formerly provided by means Of
steps cut in the solid rock. The length
OF the track is only POI feet, but its YER
teal rise Is III feet. There are two
cars on separate lines of rail, and they
are connected by steel cable passing
round a wheel at the top They are
thus balanced, and preponderating
weight is given whichever one is at the
top by pumping supply of water into
tank placed in the frame Of the car.
The steel rails are secured to ties which
are tolted to the solid rock and also i'm

normally on the wheels, and motion is
only possible while the brakeman turns
his handle. The track Is cut out OF solid
rock, so that it shall not spoil the beau

A Reasoning Don.

A family in Staten Island, New York,
mas dog that seems to show a distinc
reasoning faculty. The dog had lons
been accustomed to take morning walk
with member of the family, but was
not permitted to accompany his friend to
church. The animal sool seemed t.
understand that one day in seven he
must remain at home, and the conclusion
was that he could count. On Sunday
morning, however, the dog surprised
everyone by joining the family on the
way to church. The conclusion wa
that he had forgotten until it was called
to mind that the church bell had moi
-ung that morning. The dog evidently
had associated the sound of the bell with
the fact that he was not to accompany
his companions as usual and when the
bell did not ring he saw no reason fol
emitting his usual walk,-Chicago Her

Sleeves yet continue large, but are not
so high as hitherto. They may be male
