A Woman Wants to Know:

Why the lords of creation eat
leathery shortcaIe and pallid slabs
of pie this hot weather?
Why men can't get shaved with
out talking about "getting scraped?'
Why it is absolutely necessary
for them to drink hot coffee and eat
fried eggs when the thermometer
registers 80 degrees in the shade?
Why it is necessary for men to
swear Justify during all business
conversation with one another?
Why it is absolutely imperative
to get furious if the other fellow
doesn't think just as you do in re-
gard to women man would like to
know?
Why the fair sex persist in shop
ping in hot weather to the detri-
ment of their tempers and their
husbands comfort?
Why women can't remember to
tell the cook to have iced tea instead
of boiling hot fluid for dinner these
warm nights?
Why women won't learn that soda
water ruins their digestive appara-
tus, to say nothing of their COM
pleXiOns?
Why women persist in carrying
parasols at such an angle as to en-
danger the eyes of pedestrians?
Why women wear spotted wells
and then wonder why their heads
ache?
Why they have adopted the
hottest, most uncomfortable part of
a mans entire wardrobe, namely,
starched collars and cuffs, for their
shirt waist?
why they persist i'll talking
about servant-girlism or clothes
whenever two or three of them get
together! 1t is very stupid for the
men.
Why they lunch on pickles and
then wonder that they are
"nervous?"
Why they permit themselves to
talk about their "nerves" and their
ailments generally!
Why woman of uncertain age
and certain wrinkles wears a sailor
hat!
And why the girl clerks in dry
goods stores are sometimes insolent
and aggravating?-Chicago Record.

THE household,

The long Directoire ties are nc
longer knOtted in front into bow
but end on both sides of the face
with two large rOsettes, which reach
up almost to the hat garniture.
An accordion skirt requires at
least seven breadths of gingham,
and a plain gathered one should be
four yards wide. More embroidery
than lace is used on these frocks.
Dotted Swiss muslin is trimmed
with yoke and bertha of lace, net
top point de Venise, rows of inser-
tion on the skirt. If a novel effect
is wished colored lawn lining is
used.
Checked silks are used for blouse
waists having a satin ribbon stock
collar and belt. White Japanese
waists are cool and girlish in ap-
pearance, with the soft crush collar
of green, old rose or blue velvet.
Crush collars and belts, epaulette
ruffles, yoke trimmings, full vests
and circular basque pieces are of
velvet, lace, satin or changeable
taffetas. The wide shoulder effect
is gained by the fashionable epau-
lettes over the top of the sleeves.
The skirts have a godet or gathered
back.
A serviceable and easily ironed
dimity in hair lines has a full
gather skirt, leg of mutton sleeves,
round waist fastened in the back
and gathered at the neck, back and
front. Belt and wrist trimming of
nainsook insertion, one row of the
same heading the skirt hem; turn
over collar of edging and epaulette
rufflles of the same ending as point
ed bretelles at the waistline, back
and front.

AeR!cULTUREoF THE ANclENrsI
Grain and Vegetables Raised by the Cliff
DweIlers.

Dwellers.
In the wilds of Colorado and ArizonaI
are found extensive ruins of habita-l
tions, which, from having been built
in the face of steep cliffs, have re-
ceived the name of cliff dwellings.i
These ruins, says the American AgriI
culturist, have lately been explored by
scientists, and in them have BEEN
found numerous human mummies.l
These people were of ordinary stature,
well formed and had hair of blonde
color, which goes to show that they
were not like the red Indians of the
present day. They knew the art of
spinning and weaving, the making of
ornamental cooking utensils, and the
art of brick making. But what is of
still greater interest they raised corn,
cotton, beans, pumpkins, and other
vegetables. That these crops werei
raised by them is indisputable, as Il
have seen great quantities of EACH
that We're taken in dried state from
their dwellings. 1t is interesting to-
note the great improvement in the
corn of the present day over that whiohl
was raised by the cliff dwellers. The,
corn of the latter was very small, both ini
the kernel and in size of the ear. Thisl
contrast goes to prove what wonder1
full effect human selection and good
cultivation can produce on plant life.i
There were found in these cliff dwell1
ings robes made of feathers, alsoi
blankets made of wool and cotton,l
childrens toys and crutches for thei
use of some invalid. Where these peoJ
pie came from is question archeologw
Is not yet able to answer. But that
they were an agricultural people ada
mits of no doubt, and that they wereI
surrounded by hostile tribes is alsol
evident, as they were forced to takel
refuge in their almost inaccessible
abodes on the steep cliffs.

The bolero jackets of gold pas
sementerie deserve mention. They
make a street dress into an elegant
evening costume. They are seen
both on and off the street, but fash
iOnable ladies avoid what is too
startling, and these jackets certainly
are for street wear.
Accordion plated chambreys and
ginghams are among the new frocks
that have woven bands of trimming
along one selvedge. The insertion
appears again on the wrists and in
cross rows as yoke. Embroidered
and ribbon belts are worn, also
epaulettes edged with insertion.
The Indian foulards in all colors
and qualities find more and more
favor, and can be worn even by
those who are not rich. If suitable
colors are selected these goods can
be worn also in all weathers. A
bright red with small black dots is
very stylish. The trimming is black
lace or velvet. Checked goods are
also much seen.

MILLIONS IN SILVER,
Philadelphia Mint Vault Opened After
Having Been Locked Three Years.

Philadelphia Mint Vault Opened After
Having Been Locked Three Years.
The huge vault at the mint, known
as vault G, in which has been sealed up
for nearly four years so, 900 O;
standard silver dollars, was opened q
few days ago, and the long and
laborious task of counting this big
amount of money was begun. AS the
occasion was deemed one of impor-
tance, says the Philadelphia Times,
there was observed some little formal
ity. DR.. Caleb Whitehead had come on
from Washington to represent the
mint bureau; Frank Sartori represented
Superintendent Townsend, and w. L.
Bosbyshell Col. Bosbyshell's son, rep
resented the former superintendent.
William E. Morgan, United States
treasury examiner, was also present.
United States Treasurer Daniel N.
Morgan, who, with his son, happened
to be in this city, and accompanied by
Maj. Norman, witnessed the breaking
of the seal and afterward made a tour
of inspection of the mint.
Maj. G. II. Townsend, cashier of the
mint, having been given the combina-
tion of the vault, proceeded to open
the door. This was easily accomplished,
but when the inner door was reached
some difficulty was experienced, as
even after the combination lock was
manipulated the door refused to open.
the bolts from long disuse sticking
fast.
This was soon overcome, however,
entrance was finally effected and the
assembled officials stepped within the
inclosure where lay piled up millions.
On the inside door, fastened by sealing
wax, was sheet of foolscap paper con-
tanning the statement that S3S, ZOO, 900
had been placed there on February 7,
1890, with Maj Meline, of the treasury;i
b. f. Butler, of the mint bureau, and
James G. Eyster, of the mint, present,
and that, further, ST. ,O00 600 more had
been sealed up on May 30, 1891.
The vault emitted a damp, mustv'
odor when opened. Under the glare of
the electric light the great wealth of
stored silver was visible. There it lay
in bags just as it had been placed.
There were $4,000 bags, each contain
ing $1,000 in shining coin. These bags
were piled up one on top of the other,
the topmost almost reaching the
arched ceiling of the vault, nearly
nine feet high. The whole mass had
been arranged in different stacks.
The first stack was thirteen bags high
and eight across Just in the rear of
this was second stack, while still
further back loomed up third This,
though, represents only one section of
the vault. Altogether there are nine.
The weight of this great amount of
silver is 2,s5o,OOO pounds avoirdupois,
and the tremendous pressure of the
upper bags upon the lower had caused
q number of the latter to burst, caus-
ing their glistening contents to spread
out upon the floor.

THE JEWS FOREsAW THE EFFECT OF
SILVER DEMONETIZATION.
Early in the period of falling
prices following the demonetization
generally of silver in 1873, Disraeli
(Lord Beaconsfield), the great jew
lsh statesman that became Premier
of England. said, in reply to those
who praised the gold standard:
1t is quite evident that we must prepare our
selves for great cOnvulsions in the money market
not occasioned by speculation OF any of the old
causes which have been alleged, but by Il new
cause silver demonetization) with which we are
not sufficiently acquainted.
About eight years later than
Disraeli's warnings, Baron Roths-
child, the world d-renowned banker.
said:
Gold is every day apprecatng in value, and as
1t appreciates the lower become prices 1t is not
impossible that the cause which thus effects the
change in value of the precious metal, in its
resulting oppression of the industries of the
country and by the continued fall in prices, will
lead to infinite trouble and loss in the future
These are testimonies, confess
slOns, as we may say, of the great
est Jewish authorities that could be
named.
M. de Lavalaye, late of the Uni
versity of Brussels, says:
1t is in the shadow of shrinking volume of
money that disorders, social and political, gender

threaten and destroy, that labor starves that cap
