AS to the alleged cru city to chill.
dren, while difference of opinion

Annn,r. rarlsh s,nne..

A party of serious and resolute men
might have been seen yesterday from 8
in the morning until in the afternoon,
in the neighborhood of Finchley, now
following the highroad. now leaving the
beaten track for the open fields, and
anon cIambering over hedges and bitches,
brick walls and wooden FENCES.
The leader was not blindfolded, nor
did he nervously clutch the hand of the
man nearest him-facts which dispelled
at once the idea that they were thought
readers in search of missing treasure or
criminals. They were engaged on an err
rand of iJqmense local Importance, and
not until they had hunted out every one
of the stones by which the limits of the
parish are marked would they return to
their homes and families.
In all, some 10 miles were traversed,
with the satisfactory result that any diff
ficulty that may have arisen hitherto
with regard to the latitude and longi-
tude of any particular property has been
removed. At Hampstead the heaters, p"
as they are called, celebrated the occa-
sion by dining together. 1t is IA years
since this ceremony was last carried out
at Finchley.-I iondon Telegraph.

THE PROPER cAPER.

A new "Russian Grape" is in great use
for fchus, guimpes, berthas and full
yokes and vests.
Many of the capes and pelerines have
shaped stole fronts that generally reach
half the length of the dress skirt in front.
Large quantities of light and colored
satins are sold in remnant lengths for
woke Innings, crush collars, belts and
gathered frills laid under those of lace.
The majority of the hats for utility
uses are trimmed with MORE, satin or
shot and dotted faille ribbons, made into
alsatian bows, thick knots, twisted ban
deaux, fan loops and cockade ends.
The short Spanish jacket called the
| bolero accompanies many of the chic
and charming toilets sent over as models
! for summer gowns. They are very short,
not reaching the waist by some inches.
Among the novelties in laces are rich
guipure patterns spangled with steel and
| Venetian devices, alternating with Span
ish flower patterns. Spangled lace is
used in great profusion on evening toi-
| lets.
Round waists will remain in favor all
summer, and not few OF the new
shapes are cut with very slight point
front and back, the entire lower edge
covered with milliners' folds or crush
belt, with collar around the neck to
match.
The very latest model for those who
seek the very latest modes is the Joan
dare" sleeve, which is in close coat
shape, with one very deep circular cap
at the top edged with jet, gimp or pip
ing. At the wrists are wide tdrnback
gauntlet cuffs.-New York Post.

Around the World.

The time required for a traveller to
circle the earth has been greatly reduced
since the imaginary trip of Jules Verne's
Phileas Fogg, who succeeded in get
ting around the globe in 80 days in spite
of storms, shipwrecks, Indians and de-
tectives. The question how long 1t would
take now to go around the earth has re-
Gently been discussed in the Antwerp
Geographical society.
The answer given by M. e. de Keyser
was 67 days, including the loss of a day
at New York. the journey being made
eastward by way Of Yokohama and San
Francisco. But in the near future this
time is likely to be cut down to do days
and perhaps less, through the compile
ton of the railroad across Siberia, which.
at the present rate Of progress, may be
open from Europe to the Pacific in 10
years.
With the average railway speed for
long distances doubled, it is predicted
that in the coming century traveller
may be able to go around our planet in
"a days. Youths Companion.

System of Principles In Formative Art
Which Existed In Ancient Greece.

A System of Principles In Formative Art
Which Existed In Ancient Greece.
In recent lecture before the Scien-
tific club of the Pennsylvania state coll
lege Professor Osmond showed that all
physical beauty is associated with sound,
color and form, which, if not the bases
of its being, are its vehicle to us. 1t is
psychological law that the mind is
pleased with simple ratios In their most
abstract form these harmonic ratios are
pure numbers, obtained from the ele-
! 'ents l. 2 and 8, forming the harmonic
| mbers 2, 3 and 3. 1t is fact that III
und, color and form relations gov
Crned by ratios constructed from the
harmonic numbers or their simple null
tiples are pleasing. This law or fact of
mental constitution is the starting point
CT the inquiry after the principle COM
mon to sound, color and form and con-
stituting in all beauty, The application
of these ratios in music has been known
from the time of Pythagoras; also in
color various harmonious combinations
have wave lengths in harmonic ratio.
In obtaining beauty of form the har-
monic ratios are applied to angular mag
nitude, not to lengths or surfaces. The
eye refers everything to vertical line
and horizontal line, constituting right
angle. The right angle, l., is harmonical-
ly divided into parts having the ratios to
itself that the notes of the octave have to
the fundamental note. The lines that so
divide the quadrant are the diagonals
of harmoic rectangles, and each of these
has curvilinear figure, the ellipse, and
three Tor six inscribed triangles, all
harmonic. These harmonic rectangles,
ellipses and triangles may be putto-
gether i'll combinations of infinite variety
and necessarily pleasing effect in deco
ration and sculpture and architecture.
Examples of these are found in ''The
Parthenon, - 1.-The Venus of Milo, /" "a
Portland Vase" etc. Drawings of sec
tions of the eye show why beauty in
form depends ON harmonic relations of
angles from the very manner in which
| things are seen.
The value, financially and esthetical-
ly, of system of principles that will
guide those engaged in all the formative
arts to the sure production of true and
pure beauty is beyond estimate. Such a
system existed in Greece in the three
centuries Of her glorious sovereignty in
rt.-EXchange

Worth, the modiste. has introduced a

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.

Kentucky has l9 legal reasons for di-
vorce.
Forty states and territories forbid mar
ri.ge between an uncle and niece.
In all countries January, June and
July are the favorite months for mar
1iage.
The English marriage ceremonies are
of three kinds-by banns, by license or
before a register.
In Prussia IL and IA are legal ages at
which men and women may contract a
matrimonial alliance.
A New York wife was granted a di-
vorce because her husband threw the
baby at her when she hit him with the
coal bucket for splitting on the stove.
A Missouri divorce was once granted
because "the defendant goes gadding
about, leaving this plaintiff supperless,
or if he gets any he has to cook it him
self"
The most frequent cause for divorce
granted by the Greek church is "disap-
pearance." Over two-thirds of the whole
number of divorces are granted for this
reason.
In Pennsylvania a henpecked husband
was relieved from the yoke of matri-
mony because "the defendant struck
this plaintiff violent blow with her
bustle.'
The Scottish marriage law is so loose
that if a lady living with John Smith is
addressed in the presence of Smith as
Mrs. Smith and answers to the name the
courts have decided that she is legally
his wife.
Gallus divorced his wife because she
ran about with her head bare. Vetus
got rid of his because he sawher talking
with a freed woman; Sophus. because
she went to the theater; Anillius Pau
lus, because he did not like her.-St. Louis

HINTS FOR HoRSEMEN.

A night pasture for work horses will
help to cool their blood. Give them
their grain ration just the same.
If the colt carries his tail to one side,
employ a skilled veterinary surgeon,
who will cut the muscle on the opposite
side.
Keen the stable clean, and use plenty
of plaster to absorb the ammonia, and
see that the ventilation is good and that
there are no drafts.
Death to lice on horses is easily and
quickly effected by busting buhach or
fresh Persian insect powder into the halr
as often as the pests appear.
Don't give your horse any food for an
hour after hard drive nor for TWO
hours after particularly exhausting him.
Then water 90 minutes before feeding.
If the colts ankles seem a little tired
and weak after driving, bathe them
thoroughly with cold salt and water and
wrap them in bandages, but do not band
age them tightly.
The owner should see that the horse
does not stand in rotten or wet hitter
which frequently causes thrush. This
disease will SO cripple Horse that he car
neither gallop nor trot. Pack or stop th'
feet when occasion requires.
If YOU have a suspicion of spayiI
coming ON your horse, employ a gooC

strong blistering and perfect rest for a
least six weeks or two months ana goo'
nursing will in most cases arrest the DIS
