treasures she had brought back. The
lady's taste seemed to run largely to
statuary, for she had enough to stock

were pretty good, too. as she had the
good sense to get some one to buy
them for her.

HiNpoo BEAUTIES.


Fine-L00king Women Among the Aldalo
Many Of the women Of India, and
especially those Of Kashmir, are very
beautiful. The worst Of it is that not
only are the most beautiful ones seldom
seen, but even their portraits are dihi-
cult to obtain. Either they or their
husbands appear to look with rooted
distrust ON the photographer. and even
when their photographs are taken they
rarely give permission for copies to be
sold. In . typical Hindoo beauty the
skin is just dark enough to give . rich,
soft appearance TO the complexion. the
features are regular. the eyes mild and
black and shaded by long, silken lashes,
the hands and feet are small and ele-
gantly formed, the demeanor il modest.

MODERN LIFE-SAvERs.


Types Of Boats Now Used In the Omitted
States Service.
There are many kinds of lifeboats
and many other devices for effecting
Communication by lines between .
wreck and the shore. The type OF
boat in most general use in our service
is distinctively known ~ surfboat
It is made ofwhitecedar upon white
oak frame. It is from twenty-fivesto
twenty-seven feet in length. with its
other dimensions proportionate. It is
propelled by six oars, and will carry,
besides the crew. from ten to fifteen
persons. The excellence Of these boats
is :shown by the record during the
eighteen years they have been used in
the hands Of the life-saving crews.
They have been launched in actual
service. six thousand seven hundred
and thirty times, and have safely
landed from wrecked vessels six
thousand seven hundred and thirty
five persons. They have capsized but
fourteen times, six of these accidents
being attended with loss Of life. OF
the boats crews, twenty-seven were
drowned, being one for every two hun.
dred and forty lives saved.
A .'self-rightina''lifebo is largely
used in the English service. and in our
own to . limited extent by way Of ex-
pertinent. This boat Is constructed
with air-chambcrs At the bow and
stern and several hundred pounds Of
iron in the keel. These cause the boat
to fright" itself when capsized by the
waves 1t is Of necessity heavy and
cumbersome, and the record for actual
service j. ON. the whole favorable
to the smaller and lighter surfboats
adopted by our own government. The
proportionate loss Of life from capsiz-
ing is considerably less with the surf
boats The self-righting boat is four
fold heavier than the other, weighing
about -four thousand pounds Boats
are being constantly improved and
perfected, one Of the latest devices be-
ing for self-bailing, by which water
that may be. shipped or fills the
boat Is the result of capsize, is in

successfully the properties of self
righting and .self.bailing would seem
to be the nearest possible approach to
tho ideal.-Frank G. Carpenter, in

TEACH GIRLS HOW TO RUN.



Women who have grown tired of the
masculine ridicule of their running,
when there is occasion for them to
run, can not do better than to have
their daughters take a coure of exer-
else that shall spare them such NORTH
cation, since at one time or another in
life it may become necessary for all
people to run. To this end exercise in
q gymnasium is most desirable, begin
ming with gentle -calisthenics and go

and ladder. avoiding the heavier work.

In the gymnasium the girl will be
taught to run so that her movement
in her light skirts becomes far more

caution and resolution at the same
time. Swimming. although it leaves
no single muscle untried, is . less
desirable form Of exercise, be-
cause the temptation there Is to
overdo; still the great swimmers
declare that no form of exer-
else makes the body feel afterward
so much as if it had wings and could
soar in outer ether But it should be
taken gently, and il the swimmer is at
all chilled it should be left immediate
ly. and brisk friction with brush and
towel should take its place.
After any of this order of exercise,
when the first glow has passed. there
should be quick bath and cold
water douche, which prevents taking
cold. Other forms of healthy cxcrtion
are still to be found in walking and in
domestic work. But IL shouli be un-
derstood, by the way. by those who de-
sire to rid themselves of superfluous
flesh, that walking is of little use for
that purpose unless it produces per-
spiration; and walking. when carried
to such point, is not always best.
There are more effective ways, through
gymnastic exercise, to promote per-
spiration and thus reduce flesh. And
after all, there is no healthier or better
way to do this in general than by what
is called housework, whenever there is
the requisite strength for its steady
pull, and it is marvellous here how the
strength grows by what it feeds on.
