Notwithstanding the hard times there
are several successes up on the "arc OF
triumph" and the biggest IL the Sick
Babies Fund. 1t beats them all. There
is nothing in the broad, sweet fields OF
home missionary work to compare with
1t.
In tho seven years of Its operation the
Sick Babies Fund has done immeasur
able good. During the ten weeks of the
current season 1O6, 4S3 families have
been visited, $3.50 cases OF sickness
treated. 2.95l destitute little ones sup
piled with creature comforts, and
81, l09.07 subscribed.
Nobody makes mistake who helps
this Summer charity. Everybody who
subscribes a dime or a dollar may rest
assured that the dime or dollar will be
applied directly and without delay to the
babies Of the city poor.

The best banana that Is brought to
us comes from Jamaica. 1t is also due
still more to the condition Of the fruit
when cut. Bananas which are perfectly
full will ripen mellow and delicious;
but those cut when immature. as too
many are, will turn yellow, yet never
truly rlpen, retaining always their
hard texture and unrlpe taste. In ia
maica, as elsewhere, the competition OF
buyers leads the INSCRIPTIONS ones TO
accept fruit Of any sort, even when to-
tally unfit. and this sort of competition
makes all the more unavailing the ef-
forts of honest buyers to raise the
standard and to teach the people to
withhold the fruit until 1t Is properly
developed. Americans can give more
moral support to these honest efforts
by accepting only such fruit as IL mature
at any price. A little pains will soon
enable one to distinguish good from
poor fruit. though it is difficult to give
genera! statement Of the distinctive
differences. But as a rule 1t will Be
found that bananas which are largest,
deepest yellow and least angular are
the most mature and best

only about one-eishth of an inch permits

The Best Bicycle skirts.

What are agreed to be the best bicycle
skirts are of two sorts. One Is an or
binary skirt made with as little material
as possible and falling only half way
below the knee, where it meets very
high CATERS. In this costume the woman
looks all right when on the wheel, and
when off it looks like a sixteen-year-old
girl or a Swiss milkmaid. Underneath
that skirt the wearer dresses like all
other women.
The other most approved skirt Is one
that Is used only when the owner Of it is
on terra flrma on her feet. 1t Is a skirt
Of blue or gray serge. made to button all
the way down one side. The wearer dons
pair Of bloomens and high boots and
pins the skirt around the handle-bar of
her machine. But when she stops to take
luncheon, or to visit. or to stroll about,
she unpins her skirt and puts it on-in
public II she likes-and thenceforth is
dressed as completely and as presentabl
as any lady she will meet.

Culture or Credulity?

The assumption by c. c. Crolly OF the mental
superiority of believers over asnostics Is slightly
amusing. +. d. q. played a variation o, the

facility in believing is nearly akin to eredullty
and is no proof OF deeper culture or higher men

such belief evidence OF intellectual culture or

by seven deputy marshals. backed by a

Pond Greek lookouts. stationed on the
tops OF buildings. saw twenty soldiers
marching from Pond Creek station. and
80 reported. The citizens took their Win
chesters In high glee to give them battle.
but while they were drawn up in line,
waiting for the soldiers to demand their
surrender, two unexpected companies OF
soldiers rolled OF q train that had just
come from another direction in great

Scented Ratha.

The bath Is all the better for a little
scent A cupful Of eau de cologne
thrown into a thirty-gallon tub of
water Is very fine. Other things care
fullv considered. the bather will be
sweet and agreeable for an entire week.
This Is the sort Of bath one gets in
Paris for rs cents. A postal note sent To
bathing firm will be answered by "a
carriage" at an appointed hour, contain
Ing the portable tub. fresh towels and
material for hot. cold, spirit, scented
or milk bath. The Parlslenne pays only
a franc for warm bath. but the warm
milk for her skin Is extra; for the virsin
bath, made with few ounces Of ben
zoin. there is no extra charge. After
the toilet, tub, towels, carriage and SER
wants go off, to return when called for.
Rents are high and room Is precious In
Paris. Only the rich can afford the lux
ury of a private bath. The modern
apartment-houses are built with bath
rooms. but usually they are converted
into service rooms or pantries, from
which the morning coffee and roll or the
o'clock tea and biscuit is served.

Charles HanasCheger, of l0t3 Second

Farrie. siNteen-year-old boy, while he
was bathing in the East River at the
foot OF Fiftieth street last Saturday,

HanasCheger says the boy leased the
dog by diving under him, and that the
animal thought he was drowning. and
therefore took hold of him to pull him
ashore.
Instead of laughing. Hanascheger says
he waded into the water to save young
Farric, and afterwards took him to II
