SINFIRE.
By JULIAN HAWTHORNE.

 tion.l
CHATTER KY.

Death, as I have always believed, is no evil to those who die, but distress re mains behind them. It seems as if one calamity had a tendency to breed others, and when the sufferer most needs peace and repose he is most certain to be con fronted with fresh hostile influences. There Is only one sure consolation to look forward to, and that is that the day will come when you, too, will die and in your turn leave all behind you.
 Mothers condition gives inc anxiety. John managed his mission clumsily and allowed her to discover too abruptly that her favoritc soG was murdered. \ species of Mysteries immediately seized upon her, accompaC:e! by a tremor of the whole body that has remained ever since and yields to uo treatment She is old and for years has led an indolcnt and i'll some respects self !ndulgent life and her vital energy is at low ebb She insisted upon seeing the body before 1t had been properly arranged, and this made her worse. Since then her mem ory seems partially impaired. She ever and anon forEctS what has happened and then again remembers 1t. and her anguish begins anew. If she does not soon recover. there Is a probability of her sinking into complete forGettulncss, and that perhaps would be easier for her than to continue in her present state, Sinfirc is constant ill attendance on her and has taken charge of the household routine, much to the benefit of Es all

quarter. But John would run no risks of drawing Sinfire into the scrape. So, as the least of two evils, he replied after n pause that he was willing to admit the existence of such situation as had been outlined in the preceding dialogue. And I want to say this" he added-''my req son for keeping back information is not to save myself from whatever may come of it. If you can show any motive strong enough to make me guilty of such n crime as this, you are welcome to do it. It is only because the motive you were trying to get Ut would make an in nocent person suffer pain that wished to say nothing about it" To this the lawyer bowed polite assent.
 It occurred to me, however, that there might be some object behind the ostensi- ble one in these questions, and this sus- picion was strengthened by the fact that Johns examination was continued but a short time longer and concluded with the decision that there was not sufficient evidence to warrant his being held. But just before he left the box the counsel, as if from an afterthought, requested permission to refer to another matter. After leaving Dr. Frank Mainwaring's rooms, nt went ol, W ilsti tllu you Uts

ALL ABOUT TaE BATH.
JudieIous RathInK the Promoter of Health
 Beauty, Strength and Copufort

Beauty, Strength and Comfort
 Health and happiness, with their ac- compartments of strength and beauty, depend to large extent upon the condi- ton of the skin-that important outer wrapper, so to speak, in which is in- closed all the complicated machinery of life and action. The question of bath ing therefore becomes one relating to more than mere bodily cleanliness, i'm portant as is that factor, and as such it is considered by a writer in Good House keeping as follows
 There is a theory among physicians, and it is probably pretty well founded. that regular and judicious bathing is to a considerable extent n preventive of colds, with their attendant annoyances 1 This is reasonable on the ground that the pores are kept in a healthy state, and that the skin retains the power to protect itself from disease. It is even said that cool sponge baths, twice n week in win ter and from four to six times weekly in summer, will cure the catarrhal colds of children.
 Where circumstances permit-which, unfortunately, is not always the case there is no doubt that a morning bath is | immensely valuable. In most cases this had best be sponge bath. Not more than five minutes need be taken if time | is valuable. By the time the bath is com pleted and the skin has been gently but thoroughly rubbed, the entire surface will be in Q glow, and the individual, as soon as dressed, will enjoy brisk walk of any distance, up to a mile or two, be | fore breakfast. By this time the stomach has been melted to action, the ''deck has been cleared" so to speak, the gastric | juices are ready for their work. and the morning meal will find n generous appe- tite awaiting it. This is the ideal way of beginning the day. Where it is not feasible to practice it fully, partial Ob- servance will be found vastly beneficial.
 The evening bath is not a substitute for that of the morning. Its purpose and effects arc quite different. There is the common ground for cleanliness, but apart from that, while the province of one is to invigorate the body for the labors and activities of the day. the other has rather the effect to calm and soothe preparatory to the nights slumber. There-can usually be no excuse for the omission of tho evening bath. A few minutes can be taken from the time set apart for sleep and will prove a good in vestment, no matter how limited the hours of rest may be.

She was scolding him right and left. and he was taking 1t si- lently. Hello" I broke in. How far is it to Tazewell:" She looked up ana stopped scolding.

Fashion Echoes

The current of fashion seems to be set ting toward the small basque.
 Velvet Is used extensively in every de- partment of millinery, intermixed with satin.
 Tailors rejoice in the outlook just now, for plain dresses promise to become pop ular again.
 The coats and jackets with full skirts are of various lengths, the three-quarter, or nearly that, being favorite.
 Women promise to be winged Mer- curys as to their heads this autumn. Regular wings stand out at right angles on bonnets and hats.

Chinese Dules.

China is perhaps the last place in the world where one would expect to find dudes and inashers, but it appears that in Shanghai the gilded youth among the Celestials have adopted the masher cos tune. Very curious they look in their high collars and tight fitting coats. They have also taken to wearing foreign un- derclothing, eating foreign foods, smok- ing foreign tobacco and doing many other things contrary to the old fash toned Chinese usage. They also ride in foreign carriages, men and women to- gether. and some of them live in foreign houses in grand style. There are alsc hundreds of schools kept by Chinese where nothing but English is taught, that being considered the most useful language.-London Globe.

Ostrich Tips and Plumes.

Tho ostrich tips and half length plumes arc curled after tho manner of the Prince of Wales tips. turned inward from each side toward the rib and spread into the full width of the feather at the end. Some are set on to droop directly over the brow.
 The graceful disposal of the plumes is one of the features of the autumn mil linery. Ingenuity is shown in their ar engagements also. Some plumes are laid fiat beneath the brim, running forward from the back and curling up over the front edge. Long loops of wide ribbon are used in the same way.
