Rapid Transit.

Business extension in cities is crowdine
the street area. This area is precisely the
same in old cities like Boston, New York
Philadelphia etc, for the present popula
ton and business operations that existed 3
century ago. The crowding of streets with
the transportation essential for the move
ment of goods increases with great rapid
ity, but when the crowding is augmented.
perhaps doubled, by the presence of tn.
means of transporting passengers, the diff
culties involved are almost appalling.
With every increase of population the com
panies having in charge transportation
facilities must, in order to accommodate
the public, add more cars and more ami
mals-if animals are the motive power
and so rapidly add to the already crowded
condition of streets.
This process is one which attacks the
health and the safety of the people. The
presence of so many horses constantly
moving through the streets is very seri
Gus matter. The vitiation of the air BY
the presence of so many animals is alone a
sufficient reason for their removal, whit
the clogged condition of the streets i'm

teams or on foot, and involves the safety
of life and limb 1t is positive necessity,
therefore, from this point of view alone,
that the problems connected with rapid
transit should be speedily solved, and this
feature demands the efforts and the sup

Simplicity the Rule.

The nightgown has become a dream
dress The idealized garment demanded a
new name The straight, plain, unadorned
thing our grandmothers slept in, that was
baggy and uncomfortable and very IN
lovely, hardly even suggested the dainty
ruff1ed and embroidered dress of today.
They have pulled sleeves and ruffles of lace
falling over the hands; have yokes and
heart shaped backs; are adorned with bows
on the shoulders, and have the waists con
fined with ribbon sashes. For summer
they are sleeveless and have pretty little
puffs for all armholes They are hem
stitched at every seam and lie softly on the
ground an inch or so.
Sometimes the Vatican plat terminates
in a tiny train. but whatever degree OF
decoration may be attained. the woman Of
refinement never permits more than the
tinieSt bit OF color in the shape Of a bow
or two TO appear on her nightwear. The
colored silk garments Of a season or so ago
are relegated 10 the background. and the

Lombard Architecture.

The Lombard style of architecture, to
which our Norman is allied, placed the
support conspicuously in the wall OF
great thickness, with large blank spaces
unpierced and prominent, the walls plainly
tell their work and their capacity to do it.
The ornamentation IS subservient to the
idea. Shallow recesses and paneling bring
the surface of the wall into prominence.
Where they are pierced for window or door
the beveling and molding in perspective
increase the idea of strength. The arcading
points to the depth. The circular arch in.
dicates the solidity of the wall above The
circular windows were adapted to empha-
size the notion of power.

Some time ago Mr.. Anderson, the pro-
| prietor of the tobacco plantation of Cha
| quanas, on the island of Trinidad was an
noyed by being deprived of his usual
breakfast egg day after day." an ophidolo-
| gist remarked, beginning a story. The
| loss was the cause of considerable disturb
ance, for the cook, a corpulent negro, had
! limited her suspicious that it was owing TO
the thievery of Biharri, the Hindoo butler.
The latter, on a hint from an American
visitor, had constructed an ingenious nest
to beguile hen into laying three or four
eggs day, and he had been more than
usually attentive to every cackle, but in
stead of three eggs every day not an egg
could be found, although the hen cackled
as usual
"Mr. Anderson was displeased, and
among the servants recrimination was loud
and bitter Biharri watched the cook and
the cook watched Biharri, while the house
maid and the stable boy watched both and
were watched in turn. A little apart from
the other buildings is the stable. In Turk
! ing places there Mr.. Anderson, as he rode
into the yard one day. found the cook, the
bousemaid, the stable boy and Biharri.
Each held up hand in mute appeal not
to come nearer, while the cook in a stage
whisper explained that the hen was on the
nest.
Presently the joyous hen few forth,
cackling louder than ever. The watchers
rushed from their hiding places, crowded
around the nest and plunged their hands
in to grab the prize. As they did so an
enormous snake shot out, and while scream
ing. in chorus they rushed for the door.
The cook fell over the snake, Biharri fell
over the cook, and the stable boy and the
housemaid took refuge in the kitchen.
Mr.. Anderson jumped from his horse and
with his riding whip stretched the snake
dead by a blow on the head.
Then the servants gathered around the
dead thief, and BihGrri's face wore tri-
umphant smile of innocence vindicated-
He pulled ont his knife, ripped open the
shake and nine fine eggs rolled out from
the capacious stomach They were marked
and placed under men. Three weeks af-
terward the incubation was finished and
six young chickens burst their shells. The
other three eggs were unproductive. owing
