Styyes in Furs Chan--e Raridiy.

Styles Tn Furs Chanre ka"tdiy.
 Golf capes of sealskin and of all the popular furs are the right thing now It does seem a pity for fashion to de- mand that fur should follow the vagar- ies of cut as closely as does cloth. Time was when a sealskin coat meant the very handsomest thing one could have and something that was worth buying because it would last forever. Then when ulsters and long affairs of the kind were worn, some very extravagant person had an ulster or newmarket If seal, and that settled it. Now you must pay as much as ever for the sealskin, but it will be wearable only as long as the fashion of it's cut holds. The wise woman will not let her seal garment be too pronouncedly golf. for the chances are that a cape will survive through many seasons and remain passable if not the very latest

channel at Normandy fashionable re- sorts. Like the English the French people have less money to spend than usual. while the bad weather has kept many families at home. The hotels have been only half full until the races at Trouviile and Deauville attracted a goodly crowd. Dieppe had its turn next. besides cabourg and other well known spots. but the patrons of the race meetings are only profitable guests for a very short time, as they move on after their favorite sport. Calais is trying to set up as an attractive pleas ure sojourn as we'll as mere station of passage. so a handsome casino on the usual model has been opened.

The degrees of bachelor of medicine and of master in surgery have this year. for the first time in the history of the Scottish universities, been conferred on women. One of these young women, who ranked third in class of sixty-one members, stood first in her class of zoology, practical chemistry, anatomy, history, physiology, surgery, medicine, pathology and midwifery. Her clinical work was done in the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, and in the Royal h. frmary. The other young woman who received degree, and who has done ex- cellent work during her seven years college course, will act as medical as- sistant to her father, who is Glasgow physician.
 It isn't all selfishness. The income of merely the principal charitable in- stitutions having their headquarters in London amounts to over f7,0OO,OOO per annum, or $35.OOOOOO. That repre- sents a sum equal to half the whole capital invested in the Bank of Eng land. It exceeds the total revenues of all the British colonies together in 1884, and it is as much as the present total annual revenues of all the British colonies. If there is added to this sum the income of the smaller charities the total benevolence paid voluntarily in the metropolis does not fall far short of f1o,ooO,0 ,000, or $50.o0o,0oo ~ !

They don't know all about malaria yet, but it is sad to be pretty we'll established now that water, so far from generating malaria, may really prevent its polluting the atmosphere. The germ may grow in soils even slightly moist, but thin layer of water evenly dis tributed over such soil may prevent the escape of the germ into the atmosphere. In the same way thick growth of grass with matted roots may be impervious to the germ and keep it beneath the sur- face, where it can do no harm,

At the recent hygienic congress in Budapest a paper was read on the dan gems of bicycling in causing heart dis ease. Its author, Dr. George Herschel Is heart specialist at London hospi- tai, and he by no means condemns bi- cycling, provided it is done in modera- tion and the rider always sits erect Under such conditions bicycling may be even found remedy against some heart troubles, but as now carried on it often leads to heart disease, the principal causes being over-exertion in going up hill and the desire to keep up with more vigorous companions.

A curious case of kleptomania is re- ported from Paris A wealthy woman, noted for her wit and brilliancy, has q mania for stealing mems hats. She can create a hullaballoo at tea party or ball that makes things decidedly un- pleasant.

no matter what may be the income of

Good clothes cannot make a young man,

There lived down in Cambridge, Ind, a
wei known old gentleman by the name of
Josiah Nixon, who in early boyhood had
acquired the habit of gross exaggeration.
The habit had grown upon him so that
he believed everything he said was the
truth, no matter how great the exaggera-
ton. After he had reached the ripe old
age OF three score and ten some of the
deacons in tie church thought it was too
much like lying to pass unnoticed, and it
was decided, after great deal of consid-
Grafton, that the old gentleman must be
churched.
One evening, while he was seated in
front of his door, telling a small circle of
neighbors about the way the pioneers had
to live, the gate opened, and the delegation
of deacons filed IN.

THE CENTER OF THE EARTH.
Said to Be Composed of Gold, Platinum
and Iridium.


Did you ever stop TO consider the fact
that in all probability the center OF the
earth is a globe OF gold, iridium ard plati-
mum? These metals are, of course, in a
liquid state, the iridium at the exact cen
ter-that is, providing there is not some
heavier metal at present unknown TO man
occupying that place-the platinum next
and the globe of gold surrounding the
other two.
But you say, what proof have we
that your proposition Is tenable hypo
thesis:" In answer 1 would say, two
proofs at least, and perhaps more: First,
the three metals mentioned are the heayi-
est known substances compared bulk foI
bulk This being the case, they would he
naturally attracted to the center of our
planet sin the beginning" as Moses
would say, the earth was liquid, if not
gaseous In either case the heavy metals
mentioned were held in solution. BY
gradual condensation the metals settled TO
the center. Iridium first with the pro
viso above mentioned), platinum next,
gold last.
A ges ago, when the crust of the earth
was thin-very thin-all the gold now
known was yoInited out in volcanic erup-
lions. This last mentioned fact is the sec
ond reason for believing that our globe has
a golden center core woven around a
nucleus of iridium and platinum. A third
reason for believing that there is gold at
the center is this: The earth as a whole
weighs five times as much as a globe of
water of the same bulk, while the rocks
forming the same outer crust are less than
three times as heavy as water.-Chicago

MEMORIES.

In the sweet. dearest, coolest nook
There was u little iron hook
Within a closet. locked with key,
But dearer than Il .eaim 10 mel
For there one little 4, !den strand
From her dear forehead touched my hand
1t was so long since last pressed
That little hand-my souls unrest
Had made me walk in paths that knew
Her footsteps-wheret the yiolets grew.
Dlt violets or Gods changefUl skies
Were never sweet as her dear eyesl
! nave writ much of her, but still
Ny lonely life she seems TO fill
With kindest blessing. Old or fair,
For me she hath the same sweet hair
What blew about her brow long since.
When she Was queen and was prIncel
That little waif-so golden, sweet!
How did 1t make my sad heart beati
For in the awful loneliness
] heard the rustling OF her dress,
And as the blossoms fell they seemed
Like angels that of her had dreamedl
! was a simple. silent fool
And watched her going home from school.
And yet, when came the rain bit,
gladly sheltered her from il
And walked with her and said sweet
words
While sang the free sweet mocking birdsl
Here on this little iron hook
Hangs her dear dress. / still must look
Upon it as l did OF yore
And think how once that dress she wore,
And think how she loves me no more
And waits expectant al the doorl

Exposed to the attacks of many enemies
above water, it seeks TO escape from them
by making a hiding place for itself at the
bottom of the pond. This il does by draw
ing together the tops of some of the weeds
growing there with a few threads which it
spins. SO as to make a little bower. Il
then ascenGs 10 the surface and brings
down bubble Of air with it. part of which
il squeezes out and leaves in the inside OF
the bower, whose stems, meeting over it,
prevent it from getting out of its place and
rising to the top, as air bubbles always do
when disturbed or released.
The spider then, with the part of the
bubble which il mas kept to itself, ascends
to the surface second time and fetches
down another bubble of air, part Of which
IL secures in the same fashion and with
the remaining part ascends to the top to
bring down some more air. It repeats
this curious proceeding until within the
bower it has succeeded in forming bub-
bic Of air as big as plum, concealed and
kept in its place by the silken meshes of
the weeds, like the network of small
balloon.
Thus the spider, in the same way that a
mason carries stones and lime to his build
ing. carries down bells of air from the sur
face to build for itself crystal palace,
whose clear, transparent dome and walls,
thin as the finest film, are yet sufficiently
strong TO keep out the great body of water
and TO enable the creature to live at the
bottom of the pond rs easily as if it were

lays its eggs and rears its young in perfect
security, and when the air within threat
