 Different dressmskers have different ways of stiffsning the huge leg-o-mutton sleeves now 80 stylish. Book muslin is selected by some for that purpose, light India silk Is also used and thin crinoline and double tarlston are also utilized. The latter is cased by sewing the stuff together and fastening 1t with festherbone stitch ing. This method is quite generally used for faring collars, the edges of skirts and for revers. FLoRKrIK.

DIR. BARNARDo,s WORK.

Psssimists despair of this curious and complicated world, and even optimists are sometimes staggered by its antics. But there are things in 1t which stagger pes simism and confirm optimism. One of them Is the work which Dr. T. J. Bsrnardo has managed to do and get done. Twenty seven years ago Dr. Barnardo met street Arab in London, whose sad story set him to thinking, and his thinking get him at work. He has been systematically and heroically at work ever since, and the bare record of the reeults of his work is very impressive. He has res- cued, trained and placed out in life 24, ,211 children. He has educated and partly clothed and fed in free day and night schools, children not actually destitute, to the number of 60,S71, and has pro- vided outfit, passage money and effect ual supervision for 6,S05 youthful emi- grants to the English colonies. In this work the enormous sum of $6,355. 900 has been expended, in which is included the expenses of the maintenance of the numerous shelters, lodging houses, homes, dispensaries and the other para phernalia connected with the work. Of the sum received $935, 5,0O0 has been spent for the necessary holdings of real property in England and s105, ,000 in Canada. This magnificent sum has been raised entirely from voluntary subscriptions ranging from | few pence to many pounds, coming from all portions of the habitable world. Dur. ing the first year of Dr. Barnardo's work the contributions amounted to 0 trifle over | $1, ,000, end 1t is worthy of note that dur. ing that year and every year since the contributions have been sufficient for the requirements.
 | The doors of the Bsrnsrdo homes, mis sions and lodging house, are open night and day, and no one is ever turned away If, upon careful inquiry, @ child, no mat ter how tender its years, is found to be proper subject for the socisty's care, 1t ii permanently provided for and is giv en the benefit of all the elaborst, machinery by which children ar, trained and made useful members of 50 ciety. The underlying principle of tn system is training on lines of industry which will insure the ability to becom self-supportinR, and 1t is needless to ga, that moral training is an important fes ture.
 Dr. Barnardo has done what he could and in very practical way, to make tn
 world better. That he has been able to d
 so much is both astonishing and deeply sn coursging.

On the contrary, experienced more fear than anything else. l always did my duty, but I am forced to believe that the feelings I had when drawn up In line of battle were shAred by my comrades, who never dared to &C., knowledge them- Facing a large body of men with guns, and not knowing what moment one of them will rsnd a ball through you, is not 6 situation to make 6 man feel exultsnt. In my case I was always ready and willing to turn and run, only waiting for some one 10 make the start. How often, when about to enter a battle, do I remember solllcoui- zing: Now, If this fellow next to me would only make a start, how thankful would be- But pride and senss of duty will hold men together. As I said, have not the least doubt that many men felt just as l did, no matter how they may talk now. And when you consider that we kl- ways stood our ground, 1t shows how strongly pride can influence our seiions.
 '1 remember once, while our cavalry troops were out upon & skirmisa, we took a vantage position upon a hill that rose out of plain. From there we could see the enemy gradually surrounding us. This, to one of my tsnpersmenf, csused sx- treme nervousness. When thsre was but a small opening remaining at enc point and that slowly being closed, I went to the commanding officer and suggested that he had better oIder a retreat while such a thing was possible. He refused to do it, saying he was going to stand his ground l knew this was sure death, and would have rekllly put spurs 10 my horse and ridden to safety had not my senfs of duty and pride impellsd me to remain with my officer. He was sitting his horRs, calmly taking in the situation when l came to him 6 second time to msks the Eugses- ton. But did not have to speak. Prov idence did my work for me in s manner that prevented argument.
 "1be bullets were flying about thick and fast, and just 1 was about 10 address the officer a strsy one struck him in the wrist of the hand which held the rsins. The ball shattered the bone and the reins dropped from tho helpless hand. Before the officer could recover the reins with his other hand the horse bolted, and, strange ly, started on a dead run for the one place which offered 8 way of escape. It was my duty to follow the officer, and 1t WAS the most cheerful duty found during the war. I spurred my horse and coon WAS at his heels. We got away all right, but the company of csvslrymsn on the hill were, with few exceptions, captured and sent to ApderpoRvills prison, and but a small per ceniRge ever came out alive. That Is how & runaway horse saved my life. never went into action without s dread and fear of death. This may be looked upon ss the stamp of a coward, yet I hardly think 1t Is fair to give such a name to a person who never thirksd duty. To me the brave man Is not the one who reckIessly, without thought, plunges into the thick of battle, but rather the man, who. while realizing the danger and sp- preciating the uncertainty of life, still keeps to the path of duty"

DIsINFECTED KISSING.

DISINFECTBD KISSING.
 Now Jersey is an interesting place. It Is celebrated for It's justice and Its mossui- toes, its nearness to and its distance from New York, its peaches and its piety, and for being both @ foreign country and one of the United States. It is also celebrated for its scientific spirit. This spirit has just cropped out in Orange, where the local board of health has decided that kiss ing is dangerous. Having so decided the board has requested the young women within It's jurisdiction to refrain not only from allowing young men to kiss them, but te refrain from kissing each other.
 What will result from this action re- mains to be seen. The young women of Orange have the ancient choice between kissing and duty placed before them in a peculiarly hard way. They are told that they are chiefly responsible for the kissing that goes on in their neighborhood and that duty demands that they should put a stop to 1t. What will they dol Our guess is that they will fnd 8 way out of the dilemma that will be entirely satisfac- tory to science and measursbly satisfactory to themselves and the young men. They will not, of couree, continue to menace the community by continuing to allow the young men to kiss them as of old. But they will not, on the other hand, doom themselves and the young men to loss of that which has given sweetness to exist ence in Orange. What is-Sfe without yum yumi they say in the Mikado. So will say the young women of Orange in their own behalf and in behalf of their young men. And they will put their pretty heads together and devise some way to provide for the continuance of yum yum, even if It has to be somewhat modified. Prob ably they will deal with the matter as scientifically as the board of health has done. They will de- clare kissing ss at present indulged in dangerous and reprehensible, and then they will say that there is no harm In dis infected kissing. Then each young woman in Orange will provide herself with bottle of stuff that will make kissing safe, which bottle she will carry with her whene'er she takes her walks abroad, and she will give eaid bottle conspicuous place on the centre table In her psrlor when she is at home to her young man. Thus will kiss ing in Orange go on, though disirfsctsd. It will go on, too, with more deliberation than formerly, which is perhaps not to be regretted. Young men will not be allowed to swoop down on young women as the eagle swoops down from the cliff on the needless and helpless lamb. They will have to wait until the kissing apparatus of the young women is properly disinfeoted. This waiting will lead to more mingling of thought with kissing than there has been in Orange, and while 1t may decrease the quantity it will improve the quality.
 Disinfsctsd kissing Ia what Is wanted. Let the young women of Orange, New Jersey, lead the way and show the wor.a how to kiss safely.

way to take il is To stand in the bath

head to foot. pour the remaining water
over the chest and shoulders. To be
entirely satisfactory the oil must be

oil is the cheapest and best for the pur-
