TER. name of Lafaran
The mother died in 1889, and the
3-yearold child was taken to Baganoyo
by her father and left there while he
went on another expedition into the in
terror of the dark continent.
Later the child became the charge of
Fraulein Schnitzer, who not long since
went with her to settle down in Berlin
for the benefit of superior medical at
tendance and better educational advan-
'tages. Ferida has delicate constitu.
ton, which it is hoped to make more
robust by careful and judicious treat
ment, and if her health and life are
spared she will be an illustrious ex-
ample of the triumphs of German peda-
gogy. Her pathological talents have al
ready been developed to such a degree
that she can speak French, Italian and
German, besides Arabic and Kisnaheli.
her mother tongue
Ferlda is an extraordinarily intelli-
gent and amiable child. Her face, sur
rounded by q profusion of raven black
hair, is expressive of great mildness of
disposition and sweetness Of temper. 1t
is a curious fact that she takes no de-
light in the romps and games of her
nor does she care much for
the numerous dolls and playthings with
which she is constantly being present
ed. Her pleasantest hours are those
spent i'll the classroom. She has an in
vincible antipathy for meat and pota
toes, but is very fond Of eggs, milk and
farinaceOuS foods

Burnt camphor, inhaled, will often cure
o cold in the head.
There is more danger Of catching dis
ease through not washing the hair frequent
ly than in any other way.
The physicians of the Chambers Street
hospital. New York, have applied castor
oil as a cure for hiccoughs, it is stated, with
most satisfactory results.
Isinglass isvery strengthening and should
be introduced as much as possible into the
food of delicate people. For this purpose
the fine white isinglass should be used, as
it dissolves SO quickly.

sounded to her hearers like, 'I do no


understand -
At any rate, DR.. Lamar took it upon
himself to say again:
These are your friends, Miss Maxey
and her brother, who took care of you in
your illness. You are to stay here with
them as long as you like, to make your
home with them, if you will, until you
are well, strong and able to go where
you desire.
"Charity?" whispered the voice, a
slight color coming into the face. DIR.
Lamar understood the delicate shrinking
of a sensitive nature and feared that it
might have a tendency to retard her con-
valescence. The INSCRIPTIONS man lied:
"Not in the least. Your father has Sc
cured them to take charge of you during
his absence. He was obliged to go
away"
HE is not my father" she returned
in a clearer voice. The sound of that
voice made Maxey's heart beat faster.
The accents and information were reve-
lation They could have been the prod
uct alone of refinement and education.
A joyous thought seemed to arise sud
denly in the poor girls mind, a thought
that made her eyes glisten and her breath
come quick. She looked eagerly first into
Maxey's face and then into the face of
his sister. Something seemed to tremble
on her lips, but she forbore to utter it.
The artist, who had been watching her
every movement, started forward.
"Say that you know us; that you rec
ognize this place; that you remember to
have been here beforeP'
The rising color suddenly faded from
the pale face, and to tho establishment
of everybody she said:
"You are my brother and you my sis
ter! You have brought me home!"
Maxey's heart sank. Was her mind
wandering? Her eager glance encounter

THE NEWPORT.

The two seat traps still hold popularity,
and the ingenious arrangements for con-
verting them into one seat jobs without
having them look clumsy and out OF pro-
portion has much to do with sustaining
the demand for these very convenient and
always smart looking carriages. The
bodies will be suspended higher than for
mcrly, and what in trade parlanco is termed
cut undcrs will be tho favorites, as these are
hung on end or platform springs and are
very convenient to turn around in city
streets, the front wheels being able to turn
under the body by means Of the cut under
wheelhousc.
In fancy traps the variety in paint and
trimming is almost as great as it is in de-
sign, but the natural wood seems to be less
in favor this year than it was last when
indeed it wr.' not tho thing" In some
instances Were the expensive woods aro
used-as, for instance, mahogany-they are
still finished in natural cOlors, but tho gen
eral demand has been for paint finishes in
fancy combinations, some quito startling
effects being produced. I do not mean to
say that the effects are at all flashy or out
of taste, for the carriage painter is too we'll
schooled in art and the tastes Of the public
to make such a mistake as that, but a fin
ish may be startling and still in good taste
simply because it is something new.
The trimmings are in variety of colors
to harmoniZe, materials being bedford
cords, corduroys, colored feathers and fan
cy imported cloths. The absence of much
plated work is noticeable.
The tendency is toward something new
in phaetons and cabriolets. The effort is
to make the panels deeper and the carriage
moro roomy without giving it the appear
ance of being larger or heavier. The I'M
broken sweep Of tho side panels that hos
characterized this class Of work heretofore
has been most agreeably changed and a
much more graceful effect accomplished by
breaking the long sweep within curves.
The trimming has not been changed
great deal, but some very pretty effects In
the darker blues are seen. Green is not so
commonly used, the shades Of blue and
maroon having superseded it,
In the painting also there have been some
changes, but these styles admit but
slight depression from the standard colors,
and the pretty shades of deep blues and
colors to match the trimming are the prin-
cipal changes. G. p. SMITH.

The ancient use of a cross instead
of a signature was universal alike by
those who could and by those who
could not write. 1t was a symbol of
an oath from its earliest associations.
On this account Charles Knight, in
his notes on The Pictorial Shake
speare, explains the expression God
save the mark Henry w as a form
of ejaculation approaching to the
form of an oath. Kelly, in his Com
ments on Scotch Proverbs" observes
that the Scots. when they used To
compare person to person, used the
expression. Save the mark An.
other explanation of the expression Is
that in archery when an archer shot

will see that these separate filaments
