In the science Of microscopy the
name bacteria" has been given to GER
tain minute cells which are found in
animal and vegetable fluids. They are
cylindrical in form and get their specific
name from their shape, the word "bac-
teria'' being derived from the Greek
term, meaning club or "club-shaped. >
They are mere points Of organized mat
ter, constituting the very form Of
organic life. They are found in both
the simple or compound forms, and null

Method in Her Vanity,

A well-known esthete recently ad-
vised women never to pass a mirror
without looking into it, and observant
persons perceive the wisdom of this In
junction. When one is shopping, for
instance, full-length mirrors are fire.
quently encountered, and a passing
glance Is sufficient to reveal the dis
ordered veil or hat, the strip Of braid
torn from the bottom of the gown, the
bow or flounce awry or any other de-
feet in the toilet, and it Is then an easy
matter to remedy the shortcoming
which, neglected, would stamp one as
lacking IN proper regard for tidiness
Therefore, the modern woman glances
into every mirror as she hnrries along
and takes furtive peep now and then
into the jeweled glass suspended at her
belt, caring not one whit If some Of her
friends deem 1t vanity, as long as she
Is thus reassured of her neat and trim
appearance.

prssERr DISH IN vENErIAN GLASS,

dessert service in Venetian glass, dec
GRATED in quite a new style and made
especially for the queen. The service
consists Of two large and six smaller
dishes, each shell-shaped, of pale opal
escent pink color, never made before,
mounted with griifon splashed with
gold, and part covered with what aP-
pears from a short distance q square
Of real lace Of exquisite workmanship.
On closer investigation, however, these
covers turn out exceedingly clever imi-
tations Of lace designs, enameled by
hand, and afterwards fred, TO render
them durable. The lace design on the
two large dishes consists Of combina-
tion of rose, thistle and shamrock,
with butterfly lowering between the
flowers. On the same dishes the grit
son holds shield on which the royal
crown Is enameled in color. Shape,
eolorlng and decorative workmanship
of those dessert dishes are of the ut
most elegance and delicacy.

large button attached to one end. This
is all the apparatus necessary for the
game illustrated in the accom-
panying cut. The manner of playing
1t Is as follows: Arrange the chessmen
so that white one is in each compart-
inent to the right and black in each
compartment to the left, the cord pass
ing through the holes in the cross
pieces and chessmen in their re-
spective order This gives you series
of IA holes: I, I; 2, e; ., d; 4, 5, a; 6, b;
7, c, and 8.
Now, suppose you wish to modify
this arrangement Of me pieces; as, for
instance, to make the blacks and whites
change sides. To do this. pass the
needle through 8, c; Z, b; 6, a; 8, 4, d;
2, e; and f. II you were to draw the
needle at this moment. the cord, fold.
ing back on itself, would pass out Of
the holes and leave the pieces free. In
order to avert this, wind the cord
round the lower end of the upright sit
uated under the hole, 8. This done,
pass the cord through the holes: c, 2;
b, 3; a, 4; 5; d, 6; e, Z; and 8. Now,
free the cord at the bottom of the up
right, and ask any one present to draw
the button. Instantly, and as II by
magic, the blacks and whites change
places. A number OF interesting com.
binations may be produced with this
apparatus. Suppose one wants to bring
all the pieces into the third upper
compartment to the left, the blacks
under the whites, For this, after hav
ling passed the cord through the holes
in reversed sense, as previously, pas;
1t up from below through 2 and 8

cord through 4, s, 0, z, g. Detach the

Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases

dread and fatal disease You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,

It surpasses, in curative power over this
