A Measure of the Progress Of Civ
ization.

iZation.
President Charles W. Eliot, in the Octo-
Der Forum.
A better family life prevails
among our people than was known
to any of the Republics which have
persisted, or, indeed, to any earlier
century. Now family life--under
which term may properly Re in
cluded all the complex relations
between husband and wife, and
parents and children--is gentler in
this century, and particularly in
the United States, than it has ever
been. Family discipline has be-
come, even within thirty years,
much gentler than it ever was be-
fore. The relations of husband
and wife have also become juster.

Perils of the Far North.

The whole region is one of severe
cold, and the sea is frozen over the
greater part of the year, land and
water becoming almost indistinguish-
able but for the incessant movement
and drift of the sea ice. In summer
the sea ice breaks up into foes, which
may drift away southwark and melt or
be driven by the wind against the
shores of continents or islands, leaving
lanes of open water which shift of
wind may change and close in an hour.
Icebergs launced from the glaciers
of the land also float with the tide,
current and wind through the more or
less open water. Possibly Mt some
time the pack may open and n clear
water way run through to the pole,
and old whalers tell of many year
when they believed that few days
steaming would carry them to the end
of the world, if they could have seized
the opportunity. At other times routes
traversed in safety time after time may
be effectively closed TO- years and all
advance barred.
Food in the .orm of seal or walrus
in the open wa;ar, reindeer, musk OK,
polar bears or birds on the land may
often BIO procured, but these sources
cannot be relied upon. Advance north
ward may be made by water in ship,
or By dog sledge, or on foot over the
frozen snow or frozen ice. Each
method has its grave drawbacks Adj
vance by sea is stopped when the young
ice forms in autumn, and tho land adj
vance is hampered by the long arctic
night which enforces long months of
inaction moro trying to health and
spirits than the severest exertion. =

Weight of an Eagle in Dollar Bills.

Said Mr.. G. X. Stout, of the Treas

with $4,000 or $4,000 in double
eagles Mt his elbow: GLOW many 81
bills do you think it would take to

The reporter considered n moment

cit takes just twenty seven, unless
the bills are trimmed close. Twenty
eight new 81 bills always weigh little
moro than double-eaglc. Don't you
believe it? Just wait"
He disappeared in the vault for n
few minutes, and presently emerged
with q package of brnnd-new dollar
bills in his hand Then he counted
out twenty-seven of them, and said to
the reporter: CHOOSE any coin you
will"
The reporter chose coin, which
Mr. Stout put on one of the scale pans.
Then he put the twenty seven dollar
bills on the other pan. The long
needle that moves on the index showed
that the beam was almost level The
man of money added another bill to
the twenty-seven, and the coin went
up. Then the reporter offered 20

The first mentioned or geographical

Music That Speaks Truth.

In the folk songs of the different
Nations of the world men of science
will ono day recognize body of
evidence of great value in the study of
popular origins, racial relations,
primitive modes of thought, ancient
customs, antique religions and many
other things which make up the study
of ethnology, says writer in the
Musical Herald. These folk songs arc
the echoes of the heart beats of the
vast, vague, irresistible people. In
them are crystalized habits, beliefs
and feelings of unspeakable antiquity
yet not i'll the words of the songs
alone. Study of folk song text is only
half study; indeed, it is study of the
lesser half of the subject in respect of
truthfulness. The words of the
peoples songs are n record of en-
ternals chiefly, and very often they
are only half truths. If we would
know the whole story which their
creators put into them, consciously or
unconsciously, we must hear also the
music.
AS tho term implies, the folk song is
the product of people and a people
do not lie. Music is nh essential ele-
ment of it, and music not only does
MOTT cannot lie. The things which
aro mt the bottom of music, without
which it could not be, are unconscious
human products. We all act on a
recognition of this fact when we Judge
of the sentiments of another, not so
much by what he says to us as by his
manner of saying it. The feelings
which sway IFS publish themselves in
the pitch, dynamic intensity and
timbre of our voices. Try as we may,
If We arc powerfully moved we cannot
conceal the fact if we open our mouths
for utterance. Involuntarily the
muscles of the vocal organs become
tense or relax in obedience to the
emotional stimulus, and the drama
which is playing ON the hidden stage
of our hearts is disclosed by the tones
which We utter. do not say in the
words, mind, but in the tones. The
former may be false, but the tones are
endowed with the elements already
enumerated, of pitch, intensity and
timbre, and the meditation of these
clements makes expressive melody.
Silence has recognized this law and
Herbert Spencer has formulated it {:
Variations of the voices are the
physiological results of variations of
feelings" and feelings are muscular
stimuli" Thus simple is the ex-
PLANTATION of the inherent truthfulness

THREATENED RETURN OF RryenErs.


1t is announced that ringlcts are to
be worn again by ladies and that side
whiskers arc coming in for fashionable
men. The general attitude in face of
such n piece of news is that of unbe-
lief, with an uncomfortable underly-
ing fear that there may possibly be
some truth in it. Ringlcts belong
strictly to the sentimental period of
the worlds history, and the practical
women of to-day would hardly know
what to do with them.
They were founded on tho theory
that the hair of all pretty girls curled
naturally, and that after the morning
bath they had only to shake their
bright tresses in order to produce n
whole crop of riaglcts, all arranged in
the most picturesque and pleasing or
der. This was the theory In prac-
tlce there wcro curl papers, curling
tongs, curling fluids, and many KIN
dred devices, all of which together
were far from suflicing to keep the
ringlets in curi. 1t wag the daily dread
of the fashionable wotaan that the
crisp corkscrew of her curls should
fail her and turn into limp, abiect
forlornness, in which the ends drooped
down in raggedness and the spirals
above became attenuated and unduly
long.
This indisposed the owner to ex-
ertion. Should she go out, a shower
might come on, and the damp would
Mt once affect her head of hair. What
would become of the tennis girl, un-
known when ringiets were Gin, should
they again become the couture of the
day? She would have to choose be-
tween tennis and fashion, for the two
would be wholly antagonistic.
In the beginning of orr Queens
reign, ladies wo1e ongringlets at each
side of the face, and what was known
rs ''back hair" Their chief occupa-
tions were Berlin wool work and hirta-
ton, the ringlets playing a prominent
part in the latter pursuit, to Judge by
the novels OF the time. When they
blushed they shook their faces to hide
the carmine hue.
These curls hung outside their bon
nets on the streets, and then they had
double shield for their bushes, for
they could "drop their wells" in some
instantaneous fashion which is ms mys-
terious MS it is enviable to the women
OF orr own day. Florence Dombey
and Kate Nickleby were constantly
dropping their veils while they either
blnshed or shed tears.

WEDDING GOWNS IN 1880 STYLE.

White satin gowns in preparation
for autumn weddings are made in 1880
fashion. They are of the richest plain
ivory satin throughout, trimmed with
single deep ilounco of chiffon or of
lace, and are worn with lace veil
draped entirely Mt the back under n
small tiara or II wreath of orange buds.
When brocado is preferred, the new
scrpcntine designs are chosen with the
surpentine effect in nrmurc weaving OH
satin ground. Moire antique and
the MORO frnncais, either plain or
figured, will be much used for we'd
ding dresses. rs they lend themselves
to tho stately styles of the period now
III vogue. A new MORE with bayadere
threads of metal, either gold or silver,
is especially elegant. For those who
prefer softer fabrics is tho beautiful
penu de sole in-penrl or milk white, the
design poia, i'll dots of two sizes, or
else the soft finished surface left plain
as II foundation for rare old lnces, or
the simple mousscline de sole in sell
wage fiounces or finished with slight
embroidery. One of the prctticst 1880
models has the round bodice trimmed
with n satin bertha cut in curves low
on tho shoulders without fulness, and
edged with vine of orange buds and
leaves. Half-long sleeves are drapcd
low from the armholcs. The skirt,
closely gored in front, with the train
not too long but curved in organ-pipc
plcnts Ms it spreads out on the floor,
has deep tiounce of accordion plcatcd
monsocline dc sole, headed by rncho
dotted with clusters of orange blossoms.
The brides mother also adopts the
1880 style for the gown worn ut her
daughters wedding, but adds circu-
lar basque of plain sntin if the dress
is brocnde, or of velvet if the waist is
of satin. The new purplish-red shades,
more purple than red, and the golden
brown mordorc tints, are chosen for
these middle-aSed ladies, either in
plain satin, i'll tho new moires with
both largo and small balls, and in the
ondnle brocades with glace ground and
waving stripes of armure weaving. =
