He said il was all wrong; measure that

into ancient history; told how the feudal
system fell before the attacks OF the bour-
geoisie Of France. which gave the crown
support because the crown was friendly
and feudalism hostile: how the crown
finally grew careless of the interests Of the
smoll earners, taxed them numerically,
and Liberty struggled to its feet. indiffer-

BOAs AND MUFFs.

New boas are much larger than
those of last season. They are made
short, wide and fiat, requiring the
backs of two animals, and are finished
with three tails at each end, or else a
tail and two paws. They are arranged
to turn up or down at pleasure, and
are in all fashionable furs-sable,
mink, chinchilla, seal, Persian lamb,
ermine, and in the stone marten, with
/ its delicate coloring, which wears for
years. There is also fancy for large
boas of the various fox furs made up
in animal shape, like the cravats Of
last year, with the animals head show

boas, and sometimes have long tails
that reach to the knee of the wearer.

SOME IDEAS IN SLEEVES.

1t is now announced that the single
mutton leg sleeve is not enough, so a
double one is shown. The outer part
of it appears to have come loose from
the arm hole, except under the arm,
and all its fullness falls in close folds
down over the top of the arm to about
the elbow, disclosing not the bare arm
but an undersleeve of contrasting color.
This makes the girl with the ugly elbow
stop and think, and her party gown
will show an adaptation of this notion.
She will have a shoulder strap and to
this will be attached on the under side
an open gigot, which will fall loose
from the top of the arm, but which
will come into band at the elbow and
so cover the elbow in bag fashion.
If the top Of the arm above the elbow
is good, as is often the case when the
rest of the arm is ugly, she will let it
show; if not she will fill in with tulle
where the gigot falls away. She can
meet the elbow band with long gloves.
This sort of sleeve is more effective
and newer than the usual trick of the
gigot split, like ripe chestnut, on the
top of the arm. The latter, making a
perpendicular opening, adds to the

and should steam forty-fve minutes,
Or until they look clear. They should

SOME sAYoRY SALADS.

Lobster Salad-Allow one pound OF
meat to every six persons; cut into
bits. Add an equal bulk of crisp let
tuce, broken, not cut, end serve with
dressing of cooked eggb.
Chicken Salad-Uss only plump,
tender chickens. Stes1l, but do not
boil them TIL quito tender When
cold remove all skin and bones, and
cut, but do not chop the meat. Allow
one pound to six persons. hdd celery,
cut in bits, or lettuce broken the lat
ter, although less often used, is more
easily digested, and has the merit of
being obtainable when celery is not.
Mix in equal bulk and serve with
dressing of cooked eggs.
Oyster Salad--Allow six plump
oysters to each person. Parboil them
slightly in their own liquor, then drain
Immediately and let stand till cold.
Cut each oyster into bits, mix with an
equal bulk of crisp eggs. Stir a por-
ton of the dressing through the
oysters thoroughly, then arrange on
bed of lettuce leaves and spread the re.
mainder over the top. Garnish with
slices of hard boiled eggs and pitted
olives.
Stuffed Eggs-Boil ten eggs twenty
minutes. Peel off the shells and cut
each egg in half so as to form two
cups. From the end of each cup cut
a small slice 80 that they will stand
firm. Remove from each egg the yol'l
and put all together in bowl. Mix
together in an earthen stew pan two
eggs well beaten in teaspoonful Of
dry mustard, three tablespoonful of
sweet cream, one teaspocnful of sat.
one teaspoonful of pepper, two tea.
spoonfuls of olive oil and two of
vinegar. Boil till it is as thick as soft
custard, then remove from the fire and
add to the cooked yolks. Fill 'be
cups with the mixture and set on ice
till cold. Serve on bed Of lettuce
leaves with mayonnaise dressing.
Nasturtium Salad-Peel and cut in
thin slices equal quantities of cold
boiled potatoes and good ripe to-
matoes. Chop small, white onions
into very fine bits in about the pro-
portion of one to quart Of tomatoes
and potatoes. Then select nast:.rtium
blossoms and leaves with long, perfect
stems and arrange them around tie
edge of the dish, SO as to form Dor
der with the stems all running down
the centre. Lay the potatoes md

and sprinkle each with Il little of the
chopped onion. Pour French dress

ice for two hours before serving. 1ou
will find that the nasturtiums not Only
make an exquisite garulsh, but :nat
their flavor is delicious. Before serv-
ing toss NIL the ingredients together
and eat flower, leaves and all. Through
the long stems these latter will have
absorbed the dressing and will be
peculiarly piquant in tiavor.-New

How Hair Pins are Made.

=! For years the English and French
controlled the manufacture of hair
pins, and it is only within the last
twenty years that the goods have been
produced in this country to any ex-
tent. The machinery used is of deli
cate and intricate character, as the
prices at which the pins are sold
necessitate the cheapest and most
rapid process, which can only be pro-
cured by automatic machines.
The wire is made expressly for the
purpose and put up in large coils,
which are placed in clamp, which
carries it to the machine while
Strengthening it. From there it runs
Into another machine, which cuts,
bends, and by delicate and instan-
taneous process sharpens the points.
Running at full speed, these machines
will turn out 100 hair pins every min
nte. To economic it is necessary to
keep them running day and night.
The difficult part of the work is IN
The enameling, which is done by dip.
ping the pins in a preparation and
baking in an oven. Here is where the
most constant and careful attention is
required, as the pins must be perfect
" smooth and the enamel have per.
feet polish. The slightest particles Of
dust cause imperfections and rough
ness, which is objectionable Pitts.

Corn 255 Bushels TO the Acre.

The largest crop Of corn ever pro-
duced on one acre, according to the
Charleston News and Courier, was that
raised by a farmer in Marlboro
County, South Carolina, in 1892. A
prize of $1,000 was offered for the
largest yield on an acre, and this
farmer chose piece OF fwornout piney
woods, sandy land, to which ne ap-
piled more than q thousand dollars
worth of fertilizers. The season was
favorable and the cultivator was kept
going almost constantly. The stand
became so thick and heavily burdened
with ears that fences had to be built
to sustain it. When the crop was
gathered it measured within peck OF
255 bushels, and carried off the prize,
which the farmer richly deserved, for
it takes a valiant man to spend more
than : thousand dollars to enrich .
single acre.

Making Matches of Paper.

Matches made from paper arr
novelties, but Brunswick, Ga., has {
factory in full operation that is daily
turning out numbers of them.
At present the factory is conducted
on limited plan, and was commenced
merely as an experiment to see what
demand could he created for the new
product, but the success that hal
greeted the experiment justifies iti
continuance on large scale, and it il
expected that paper matches will soor
be turned out in mammoth proper
tions.
Rosenda Torras is tho owner of the
new factory, and Senor Antonio Prat
is manager, Mr.. Torras being coun'
sci for q number of foreign countries,
a large lumber exporter, and direc'
tor in the National bank, is sufficient

concern is not limited, and if the sue
cess with which the industry started
is continued, it will not lack for capi.

POPULAR GARN1TURE.

Passementerie and braiding are
popular garnitures, and ribbon is used
in profusion. There are very elegant
Grape surfaced woolens in the long
crinkle seen in last springs fabrics.
In some costumes this material is used
for the skirt, while the sleeves and
waist are of smooth silk or crepon or
possibly of some soft wool. A suit of
this sort has the faring skirt of the
Grape cloth, q fitted bodice of silk of
the same color as the yoke, a folded
collar, and full sleeves gathered into
band and finished with frill. The
entire front of this waist is covered
with passementerie made of silk cord
without heads. A folded belt with a
rosette and long ends of ribbon is an
appropriate finish.

MILLINERY MATTERS.

Birds for the severe hat are the
adornments unanimously agreed upon
by the milliners, and several of the
prsttlest hats in the shops are trimmed
with these little birds set all around
the crown. A show hat is made with
the crown of solid birds. Another
has the crown of puffed velvet, with

and velvet ribbon. For the theatre

Cold That Burns.

Burning 10 usually associated with
heat, and it seems amisnomer to speak
Of cold burns. Chemists tell US that
there is really no such thing as cold,
which is relative heat, and that the
lowest temperature yet registered is
some degrees above absolute cold.
At the last meeting Of the Swiss So
ciety of Natural Sciences at Lausanne,
NJ. Raoul Pictet gave some particulars
concerning cold burns experienced by
himself and assistants during his in
vestigations of the lowest temperature
attainable. There are two degrees Of
burns. In one case the skin reddens
at first and turns blue the following
day, and subsequently the area Of the
spot expands until it becomes nearly
double it's original dimensions. The
"burn," which is usually not healed
until five or six weeks after its occur
renee, is accompanied by very pain.
full itching on the affected spot and
the surrounding tissues. When the
burning is more serious, produced by
longer contact with the cold body, q
burning of tho second degree is ex'
perienced. In this case the skin il
rapidly detached, and al parts reached
by the cold behave like foreign bod.
les. A long and stubborn suppura.
ton sets in, which does not seem to
accelerate the reconstitution of the
tissues. The wounds are malignant,
and scar very slowly in manner en-
tirely different from burns produced
by fire.
On one occasion, when NJ. Pictet
was suffering from severe burn due
to drop of liquid air, he accidental
ly scorched the same hand very &C.
riously. The scorched portion was
healed in ten or twelve days, but the
wound produced by the cold burn was
open for upward of six months. In
order to try the effect of radiation in
dry cold air, NJ. Pictet held his bare
arm up to the elbow in a refrigerat.
ing vessel maintained at los degrees,
when a sensation of peculiarly dis
t1nct character was felt over the whole
skin and throughout the muscles. Al
first this sensation was not very disa
greeable, but gradually it became de-
cidedly so, and after three or four
minutes the skin turned blue and the
pain become more intense and deep

SYSTEM IN THE sroRE-RooM.

Some housekeepers keep a supply
board on which is a list of the gro
ceries which are usually kept in store; |;
opposite to each is a small hole with q
long wooden peg to fit it. The girl
who takes charge of the store-room
puts peg in the hole opposite to all
groceries that are nearly gone, 80 the
housekeeper, who does the marketing,
can easily see what is needed.
A memorandum book should hang
in the store-room and the quantity
and date of buying should be kept.
Where there is no store-room a

write down every morning the names
of groceries that are needed.

women are forced to reiuvenate hats

vice through season or so, to do duty
during the winter.
The ultra-fashionable always seem
to be whole season ahead of "the

and other highly ornamental ones
adorned the coiffures of a few of the
danes last winter. These dainty fall
lals in headgear have not been rele-
gated to the shelf. They appear again
for evening wear, with but little varl-
ations from those that futtered above
crinkly tresses last season. This cum

esque theatre hats to entirely disap-
pear from the playhouse.

COLLARS AND BELTS.

The use of collars and belts of vel

favor, and to have different sets OF
these velvet collars and waist orna.
ments is now a requisite fad of the
fashionable woman. On gray crepon
gown may be worn cerise velvet COL
lar and belt or green one, or again
black. These velvet collars are sold
separately in the shops, but one can
make them out of odd remnants for a
small amount.

Cold Cures.

Many bad colds come from bad di-
gestion. When the stomach is out Of
order the body is liable to catch any
thing that is epidemic. Cold cures
and complexion remedies are twins in
Therapeutics. One old prescription
still holds good: Get into bed and
stay there twenty-four hours; eat and
drink nothing, not even water; the
next day take an alcohol bath and rub
every part of the body red with q
coarse towel; swallow mild laxative
and drink bowl of hot milk or thin

bad face, if the patient takes no more

necessary. Home and Farm.

SHARPENING A CARVING KNIFE.

In little things there is always a
correct way to accomplish the object
b view. The following is described
as the correct way to sharpen cary
ing knife:
The carver must be held at an angle
of twenty to twenty-five degrees on
the steel, says Hardware. Be careful
to have the angle the same on both
sides, so as to sharpen instead of dull
the knife. Draw it on the steel from
heel to point against the edge; only a
very slight pressure being required.
