Americas Sole Hereditary Trade.

Almost the sole hereditary trade in
the United States is that of the deep
water pilot. At most of the important
seaports pilotage has been confined for
generations to a few families. The Del
aware pilots congregate at Lewes, where
they have lived these many generations.
To be deep-water pilot in Delaware is
to be a man of consideration, with
houses, lands and portable goods
ashore, a snug home, well-clad family,
and local honors of various sorts.-Ner

NURSERY HYGIENE,
How to Furnish and Care for the Chill
dren's Room.

How to Furnish and Care for the Chill
dren's Room.
The room especially set apart for the
children of the family should be the
best aired, the sunniest and the driest
in the house At the same time it
should be so situated as to be kept at
temperature as nearly uniform as possi-
BILE. As IA general thing it sh ould be on
the south side of the house. Any ex-
cess of sunlight, if such exists, can be
easily controlled by shades.
Since the nursery is, as a rule, occu-
pied both night and day. it should be
as large as possible to facilitate a thor
ough supply of fresh air.
Considerations of air, sunlight and
cleanliness should be paramount and
all questions of decoration should be
entirely subservient. To this end,
everything should be simple in con-
struction.
In all but exceptional cases the nurs-
cry is the scene, at some time or other.
of one or more of the diseases incident
to childhood. On this account all
materials that might serve as lurking
place for dust and disease organisms
should be excluded. The furniture
should be plain SO as to be easily kept
clean. 1t should also be light, or else
furnished with strong casters, so that
it can be easily moved about Pictures
on the walls were better omitted
The nursery floor should have partic-
ular attention. While the ideal floor
may not be always attainable, the ideal
should be approached as nearly as DOS
| sible A floor of closely joined hard
wood is the best, since it is most easily
kept free from dust. Over this should
be laid rugs or carpets, which should
be frequently taken up and beaten.
Nursery closets, too, should beeare-
fully looked after I They should be al
ways open to inspection, and no accu-
mutation of soiled clothing should be
permitted Open shelves are recon-
mended since, while clean linen and
other necessities are easily kept upon
them, they are less apt to be made the

ness, than are shelves inclosed bv
doors.
The habitual use of disinfectants
should have no part in the care of the
nursery. The necessity for their use
should be avoided by means of scrunu-
lous cleanliness. A room in which dis
infectants are needed should be inhab-
tied by no one, least of all by children.
The ventilation of the nursery is an
impor tant matter. The essential thing
to be secured is frequent change of
air without draughts along the floor

Pictures as wedding presents are very
fashionable: but there is one unwritten
law of artistic taste in these gifts which
should be observed, viz: That the
picture should be good of its kind. 1t
must not be copy of painting. The
advance of modern inventions for the
copying of pictures has reached almost
a facsimile stage; therefore copy of an
oil painting by some one not proficient
in art cannot be "a thing of beauty
and joy forever as wedding pres
ent ought to be, for it is supposed it
will be lifelong possession. Modera
masters do net encourage students to
copy; and a really good artist does not
do so himself Pinchbeck art is just as
much out of fashion as pinchbeck jew
elry. If, for pocketboolS reasons, an
original painting cannot be bought,
then select an etching with wide mar
gin or mat" and order a hand made
frame Of light wood or oak. For a

NOTES OF TIE MODES.

Fashiona BILE FInery for Feminine Dress.
The pretty new hats in pale rose. pink
and heliotrope are trimmed with viO-
lets, heartsease or jonquils intermixed
with green velvet ribbon or ecru silk
guipure lace.
A hint of the predicted surprise in
store for the fashionable world is found
in the skirt draperies which appear on
some of the latest theatrical toilets
from leading Partisan dressmakers.
Among the stylish new goods are
those in melange of colors, from five
to seven different shades being inter
mixed. Together these colors form a
| singularly brilliant and effective whole.
One of the most beautiful of the new
| spring fabrics is soft corduroy cloth
which looks like a heavy-ribbed CASH
mere. 1t comes in silver blue, TAM
green, heliotrope and other delicate
spring colors.
Among the handsomest French tex
tiles are those in various mixtures OF
silk and wool, woven diagonally in
cords and in quaint, striking figures.
This produces the shot effect which is
now so much the vogue.
Some of the newest and most modish
waists have shoulder seams six inches
long with all the ornament in the v ay
of revtrs or epaulets falling from the
tip of the shoulders on dropping sleeves
that are widest at the elbow.
Recently imported French dresses for
spring and summer are variations OF
the quaint 1850 styles. The waists are
round, the sleeves large and dropping
from the shoulder seam, and the skirts
round and full and either just escape or
barely touch the ground.
1t is a fact for which womankind
should be grateful that the newest
stutfs are light weight, as from seven
to eight yards of double width goods
are now used in a dress Many of the
most stylish dress goods are woven so
thinly as to be almost sleaRy. Many of
these new woolens are shot or change
able.
popular material just now is "alli-
gator crepon." A gray-blue dress of
this material is trimmed with black
silk moss garnitures The bodice is
made with an Elton jacket front and a
vest of soft pink silk. The cape and
toque worn with this costume are of
fine lady's cloth, the same shade as the
costume.
Used alike by modistes and tailors
are the popular and pretty tweeds, En-
glish meltons, cheviots and chuddahs
in silver blue, pale tan, stem green,
beige, marine blue, leaf brown and pre-
late purple or pale mauve shades.
These fabrics are lined or striped in
some harmonious or artistically con-
trasting color.
Wusuzeau, who is a most excellent
authority in Paris. used three fiaring
breadths of double-width wool goods
for the short skirt of a street dress.
The front and back breadths are
straight in the middle and sloped on
the sides, being their full width at the
foot. The third width is cut in half
for a narrow gore on each side. This
makes skirt four and a quarter yards
around the foot-N. Y. Post.

WORDS OF KINDNESS.

They Work Like n Charm Where Harsh
Treatment Fails.
Perched on top of load of boxes of
merchandise the driver was bella boring
his horse with whip and shouting to
him to Get up but the four feet re-
manned resolutely glued to the pave
ment. The animal found the load too
heavy, the wheels stopped at State and
Madison streets and despite the clangor
of the cable gongs, the cutting blows
from his drivers whip and his explosive
language, the horse stopped to rest.
The policeman who guards that part of
the corner where the horse baked
came forward brandishing his club
Get mp there, bones" he shouted.
Bones" looked YEARLY at the blue
coat, Topped back his ears, but didn't
bulge The policeman tried humping
his legs with his billet. This, too, was
of no avail. Then the driver and po-
liceman renewed their vocal and casti-
gatory efforts with greater zeal But
the horse stood firm.
A tall man, with kindly blue eyes. a
reddish brown beard, and wearing a
black cape overcoat, broke through the
crowd that was watching the scene.
Let me try to make him move" he
said. The driver relaxed his tight
reins and the policeman stepped back
The man with the red beard loosened
the bit in the horses mouth, patted his
head, wet with sweat and talked to
kim kindly. The animal at once ex-
hibited signs of thankfulness He
rubbed his nose on the mans shoulder
and was given caress in return. After
a few seconds the humane stranger
said with smile:
Now, old fellow, come on with the
| load"
The horse settled down slowly to the
work, his legs quivered under the heavy
burden, and then the wheels began to
| revolve again. Chicago Tribune.

It is lucky thing for the natives of
southern Patagonia that the navigation
of the Straits Of Magellan is dangerous
Vessels often anchor in the straits for
the night on this account, and this
gives the archaeological natives a
trade with the ships company. The
chief articles offered by the natives are
furs of various kinds, especially of the
sea otter These they sell for trifle,
or more oftea barter for the few things
they need. The best otter skins are
worth as much as six hundred to seven
hundred dollars when brought to civil
lied markets but Patagonians offer
only poor skins-N. Y. Sun.

comedy cole Olson" This piece was the
original of all Swedish-American PLAYS,
and the success it made as novelty

shekels in the managers pockets The
success met with last season was so pro

A company of exceptional strength has
been secured and special scenery pro-

THE WORLDS CHAMPION

Will Show Savannah a Thing or Two
Before Going to Jacksonville for
the Fight.
The champion pugilist of the world,
James A. Corbett, will make his appear
ance in this city on Tuesday evening
next, in conjunction with fourteen other
celebrated gladiators, in a refined ath-
letic exhibition Corbett will box with
John Donaldson, his sparring partner, a
four-round contest, also giving a practi-
cal illustration of his scientific methods
of training for a fight, in which he
punches the bag, swings clubs, etc.
In addition to this splendid programme,
the other celebrities, including Dan
Creeden, Joseph COrbett, Thomas Lacey,
the Australian welter- weight, John Nc
Vey, and the balance of the company will
be seen in ten other scientific bouts, and
between each bout NUM- Der of novel spec
ialties will be introduced.
The athletic tournament will be given
under the management of w. B. Brady,
who will present to the lovers of this
style of amusement the greatest com BIZ
nation of gladiators ever seen in this sec
ton.
Corbett is in excellent training, and is
primed and ready for his great fight with
Charley Mitchell next month. There is
much local interest in the contest, and it
is likely that Savannah will be largely
represented in Jacksonville on that occa-
sion. AT least, such are the indications.
