Is 1t a woman's Invsntionq

The cold weather has brought to the
front new addition to overcoats, and
one which cannot fail to be popular. The
latest styles of winter overcoats are pro-
vided with small pocket in each sleeve,
which is intended for the exclusive ac-
commodation of the fair sex. Every girl
has had her fingers nearly frozen while
hanging to her escorts arm, and would
be willing to bet new hat that the tai
lor who originated the idea got his point
er from his best girl.
Not more than one man in dozen has
any idea what use the extra pocket is in
tended for until he is told, but woman
doesn't have to look at it more than once
before she catches the idea and slips her
daintily gloved hand into the pocket,
with an expression Of wonder that some
one had not thought Of it before. It is
certainly windfall to the girl who has
to walk several blocks with her hand on
q mans arm cold nights, and imagine
that the fellow who does not adopt the
new style will only be in demand when
the mercury is at q good safe distance
above the freezing point.-Denver Sun.

Spontaneous Nationarism In Egypt.

Enthusiasm has spread throughout
Egypt with electric rapidity. The Eng
lish have thus at last met with some re-
sistance, and it is clear that that resist
ance was quite spontaneous, quite ma
tional. No power had either counseled
or prepared it. France and Russia, per-
fidiously accused, have even displayed
more embarrassment than they need
have shown. The truth is the move
ment is exclusively Egyptian. Egypt,
which has profited by it's European les
sons, feels that it can henceforth get on
alone. The English papers, surprised
and upset, assure US that If it shakes off
the English yoke it is certain to fall IN
der that of France or the porte. These
arguments may have their effect on the
banks of the Thames, but on the Nile
they are taken at their real worth--as not
very serious. The English occupation
the original utility of which we do not
contest, has now exhausted all its good
effects.--Journal des Debats.

Long Balloon Ascent.

M. Maurice Mallet describes what he
claims to be the longest balloon ascent
on record. His balloon, Les Inventions
Nouvelles, started from the gas works of
La Villette, Paris, ON Oct. 23, and the
voyage terminated at Wahlen, in central
Germany, at 9 a. m. on the 25th, after a
total journey Of 80 hours 10 minutes
above ground. The flight was interrupt
ed several times by the snow which fell
in the higher regions Of the atmosphere.
When lower strata were reached, the
snow melted, and the balloon regained
its ascending power. During one Of these
descents it was stopped and examined by
a Prussian gendarme, who had followed
it at a gallop for some distance. The
route passed over part Of Belgium, the
Taurus and the Odenwald, and the towns
Of Metz and Frankfurt were recognized
in passing. Public Opinion.

A Social Custom of German Women.

A Social Custom of German Women.
What the tea is to the English and
American entertainer the kaffce klatscb
Is to the German. The real klatsch is an
affair where women only are expected
to take part, though the kaffee klatsch.
as given in America, is but variation
Of the regular tea, and both men and
women are supposed to attend.
The hours are usually from to
and the callers are not expected to
don any special or extra dress for the
occasion. The hostess wears pret.
ty house gown, and altogether it is a
most charming and informal affair. The
refreshments consist Of coffee and little
German cakes or hot rolls The coffee
is presided over by some young girl
friend Of the hostess, or the lady Of the
house herself does the honors, while the
cakes are passed without ceremony by
the men or any one present who feels in
clined to do 30.
A klatsch in German means a socia.
time, minus hats and bonnets and occu.
pied with fancy work or any sewing that
can be done amid such pleasant sur
roundings. Here, however. this feature
of the entertainment is missing, and con.
versation or little music is all that is
expected.
A kaffee klatsch could be made decid.
edly picturesque if the maidens serving
the coffee were attired in quaint German
costumes, and if further Innovation
were approved it might result in dance
done by these self same girls to the time
of their wooden shoes. As with the tea
the kaffee klatsch is a most economical
method of discharging ones social obi
cations, and as variation Of the regu-
lar thing may meet with approval.-St.

The Books of Last Year.

There is no end to the making of books
Publishers complain that last year was
in many respects a bad one for them
and yet the number of volumes let loose
upon the world was larger than during
the preceding 12 months. In 1892 no
fewer than 1,915 new works were pub
ished and A $3.50 new editions From an
analytical list of these works it appears
that in only three departments of htera-
ture has there been diminution of sup
ply in sympathy with decrease in de-
mand. Works of juvenile fiction fell off
considerably, which may be taken as
sign that the advance of education among
the young has made them more fastid-
ious in their reading taste and enabled
them to participate in stories written for
grownup people.
The demand for law and Jurisprudence
is getting less and less. Works Of his.
tory and biography are also in small re-
quest, and the same may be said of es-
says and the belles-lettres But this
may be taken only as temporary aber-
ration in the public TASTE During the
year 243 more novels wereissued than in
1891, and 800 had the honor of new edi-
tions. Upon the whole, 1899 may be re-
garded as having been very busy pub
fishing year, and there is every appear
ance that the 12 months which have now
commenced will be even brisker. Lon

One of Millions Books.

A book of unique interest came under
the hammer at Sotheby's few days ago.
It is q copy of Sir Richard Bakers trans
lation (1842) Of Malvezzi's "Discourses
upon Tacitus," with numerous neatly
written notes in the margin ascribed to
no less person that John Milton. They
are principally in Latin, but some are in
English. That Milton's knowledge OF
Tacitus was comprehensive and exact ID
evinced from q passage in "The Defense
of the People Of England Against Sal
masius," 1854, where he says: "You cite
this passage as if Tacitus had said it him
self. You leave out nothing that You
could find in bakers or BARRIERS shop
II you had read Tacitus and not tran
scribed some loose quotations out Of
him." and SO forth. Opinion was strong
ly in favor Of the notes being those Of
Milton, and the volume sold for G18.-

The warm weather this week has en-
liyened the ice cream trade and made
business for $. l.. Boone q Co., who
have the reputation Of manufacturing
as good ice cream as their is made and
some think it is richer than others.
The industry Of making ice cream and
creamery butter in our town is not
only a benefit in supplying good butter
to our citizens in times of scarcity but
in making a home market for the farm
ers' milk. The prosperity Of the town
depends more Oh the prosperity of the
farmers than any other class and the
home market for those who have graz
ing land is n big help to them. The
consuming Of Boones' cream and butter
is a direct aid not only to the town but
to our farm ers.
