lake, at 81 degrees north latitude. the
musll-ox draws the line marking his
farthest south.
A man who can endure cold like an
Eskimo, travel like a caribou. live for
weeks on frozen caribou meat, starve
as cheerfully as Yellow Knife Indian,
and endure the companionship of YER
min-covered natives, can reach the
southern bordcrland of the musk-ox,
and possibly get back alive with two or
three skins Mr.. Warburton Pike, Eng
lishman, can do and did do all those
things no longer ago than 1890; and his
book on THE Barren Grounds of North
ern Canada" is most interesting and
valuable contribution to our knowledge
of that very desolate country.
The musk-ox is perhaps the rarest,
and to white men the most difficult to
secure, of all our land quadrupeds.
Robes are by no means uncommon, and
often sell for as little as fifteen dollars
each; but of mounted skins there are in
our rcountryeXactlys seven. Three of these
constitute a group in the National mu-
scum; two are at the American Museum
of Natural History in New York; and
the museums of Philadelphia and Cam
bridge have one each. Although dur
ing their long sojourns in high lati-
tudes Gen. Grcely and the members of
his expedition party killed many musk
oxen, you will notice that they were
unable to bring back even SO much as
single horn.
The appearance of the musk-ox is so
odd and striking that when once seen
1t is seldom forgotten. You see an OBJ
long mass of tremendously long brown
hair, four and a half feet high by six
and half long, supported upon wide
hoofs and very short, thick legs, almost
hidden by the body hair. There is also
blunt and hairy muzzle, pair of
eyes, pair of broad, fattened horns
that part like. woman's hair and drop
far downward before they curve up
ward-and that is all. The mass of
hair is so thick that as the robe lies on
the floor it is about as easy to walk over
as feather bed. Over the loins you
will find, if you look closely, broad
'saddle-mark" of dirty-white hair,
shorter than the rest of the coat.
Next to the body is a matted mass Of
very fine and soft hair, like clean wool
SO dense that to snow and fog it is
qnite impenetrable. Over this lies a
thick coat of very long, straight hair,
often twelve inches in length and some
times twenty, like the grass raincoat of
Japanese soldier. Sometimes it
actually touches the snow as the ami
NAL walks.-W. I. Hornaday, in St.
Nicholas.

smartly tied bow of blue and brown
checked ribbon.
A cloak that will go on easily and not
crush the frills and sleeves will delight
the little maid who is inclined to look
upon wraps as a nuisance. Light
weight cloth in medium shade of old
rose, or a pretty broken plaid in old
rose, white and black, makes pretty
! and serviceable cloak. The skirt is
gathered very full on shallow, square
yoke, which fits easily and has big
granny sleeves. A detachable cape
formed by three rufiies ties with black
ribbon streamers three inches wide,
concealing the yoke. Each ruff1e is
edged with three rows OF Tom Thumb
velvet ribbon. A shirred black silk
hat with double frill of black chiffon
embroidered in old rose gives proteo-
ton from sun and wind.
|. In wash dresses the array is even
more tempting, and surely the choice
among cotton stuffs was never less linn
tied. Ginghams for morning and pret-
ty striped or plain batistes or fowered
muslins for evening, with perhaps a
white china silk and a white null for
extra occasions, are the selection of
sensible mothers, leaving the stiff ham
burgs, rustling with starch, and the be-
ribboned swisses over colored cambrics
to the woman with gaudy taste, who
thinks them real elegant" poor thing.
This is the woman who puts red en-
broidery around the legs of her little
boys white duck "pants."
Sheer lawn in pink and white stripes
is the material employed in another de-
sign. This dainty gown is made in one
piece. A deep rutfle of the lawn and a
narrower one of fine nainsoolS embroid-
cry are gathered very full around the
puffed yoke, and frill of the embroid-
cry finishes the neck and sleeves, which
are n coat sleeve, with large puff
forming upper part. Two rows of in
serting give the short-waisted effect.
The sixth model will probably prove
the favorite, as it is dainty, yet easily
laundered. 1t is made up in white,
scarlet and blue gingham. The skirt
is laid in fine cluster plaits, and forms
slip. A deep round cape of plain
scarlet or blue, with rows of white
braid, isput on without fullness around
the neck of the slip, which is well
rounded and fits snugly over the shoul-
ders. The rutiie sleeves are the same
depth as the neck trill. The guimpe
may be white or solid color. This is
model play dress, and can be admirably
developed in galatca cloth or any of the
wash materials. The china silk will be
charming if adapted to this style. Have
the skirt accordion-plaited, the guimpe
Of silk and the neck frill of deep valen-
ciennes lace.

WOMAN AND HOME.
For The LITTLE MAID.
How to Dress Her So as to Make Her .
Veritable Summer Fairy.


Veritablo Summer Fairy.
How to dress the little maid from
four to eight? What she shall wear
and how to make it? is not the question
that perpleXes mamma, as does the
gowning of her elder sister. The little
maid looks so charming, and each wee
froclS takes such scrap for its con-
struction, it is hard to resist making
just one more of the many pretty de-
signs shown in the shops. Simplicity
and comfort are the points considered
in the little maids toilets this season.
The short full skirts, big sleeves, wide
brimmed hats and sunbonnets will in
sure her many happy hours of play.
The following little gowns shown by
n celebrated house will illustrate the
favorites for summer. If she is a
blonde, light wood brown, with touches
of green silk and cream lace will trans
form her into veritable summer fairy.
1t is made of waffle crepon, with a
double box plait front and back,
caught only at the neck, and has deep
cape of green silk, with cream lace
ruflle. The full sleeves are gathered
at the wrist. Two rows of narrow
green ribbon and one row of cream in
serting give pretty finish to the skirt.
A close cap of green silk, with band of
inserting, lace frill and wide silk strings
complete this costume. A pair of hook
kid gloves and a parasol will make the
little maid perfectly happy.
The next little frock is suitable for
church or for 'best" on cool summer
days. Dull blue fecked with brown is
used in this model. The little skirt has
few gathers in front, the fullness being
well punched at the back A scant
rutfle of brown silk, stiffly lined to
stand out crisply, and second ruffle of
heavy lace points, form ''V'' neck on
the skirt, the lego o'-mutton sleeves and
for belt and rosettes. With this gown
is worn fat-crowned sailor of fine,
light brown straw, trimmed with a

Tho Lont ponIkethool,.

A lady got out of her carriage and
went into store in the little town
where she had gone for the summer.
After buying some things, she discov-
cred that her pocketbools was lost. She
left the store, got into her carriage and
drove away. After time her horse
grew lame. She stopped and looked at
his foot; there, firmly fixed in his hoof,
was her pocketbook. She had dropped
it, and the horse had stepped on it care
fully, carrying it along.

CURLING FEATHERS.
How to Restore Brilliancy to Dull and
Dusty Plumes.

How to Restore Brilliancy to Dull and
Dusty Plumes.
There are few things that give hat
a more rumpled and shabby appear
ance than an ostrich feather limp and
detected, looking almost as forlorn as
when it and it's fellows arrive fresh
from ostrichland. Any one seeing an
ostrich feather then would think it only
fit for the ragbag, but series of brisk
scrubbings in warm soapsuds on
washboard, a judicious patching to-
gether and elimination of ragged
places, where Sir Ostrich has preened
himself too vigorously, curling and
combing soon make of the ostrich
feather thing of beauty and joy
forever-until it gets wet-when the
process of rejuvenation again becomes
necessary.
Have tea-kettle full OF boiling
water; shake the feather vigorously
through the escaping steam, taking
care that it does not get too damp.
This livens up the plume and restores
brilliancy if it has become dull and
dusty. Next take silver fruit knife,
and, beginning with the feathers near
est the quill, take small bunch be-
tween thumb and forefinger and draw
gently over the blade of the knife until
they curl as closely as desired. Follow
this process up each side of the tip;
then take very coarse comb, comb out
carefully and you have your plume as
good as ever

in which it swings on the bolt plenty
large enough and that the bolt is largo
rather than small.
The place for the trunk starts at the
greatest beam and runs aft.
Half deck the bow and step the mast
through into stout foot block on the
keel, using bobstay of good stout wire.
Run a ten-inch flush deck round the
sides to the stern, which should also be
half-declsed, with the rudder post pro-
jecting well through. Directions for
the rudder and the seating of the boat
should be unnecessary to anyone who
can build boat far enough to require
them.
The yard or boom should be of stout
pine, well smoothed and of wcll-sea-
soned wood; the sail should be of light
sailcloth, sewn in eight-inch strips to
the shape desired, the best shape being
as shown in the illustration, this giving
the same or nearly the same speed as
the gaff sail, and is infinitely safer, as
placing the pressure right down where
it is most under control.
The ropes should be of the best quail
ity procurable, as they come the cheap
est in the end. Do not be persuaded
to use any lime, or in fact anything to
your sails to keep them white. 1t only
provolcs mildcw, and if properly cared
for and cleaned off as they get soiled
with fullcr's clay, they will keep
good color for years.
This type of boat in n light to mod,
crate breeze will outsail any other rig
in existence, if well handled 1t is i'm
possible to give the cost of this boat; it
would vary from thirty dollars up for
actual material.
Speed is not always the one essential
for boys boat, although every boy
desires it. Speed means more or less
increased crankiness, and safe boat,
if properly handled and well sailed,
Will beat nine out of ten of the faster
boats handled by boys who do not
know how to get the most ont of .

BASIS OF MARRIAGE
without Love There Can he No Happiness
In Times of Trial.

In Times of Trial
One girl who wrote to me recently
said Wouldn't marriage based on
friendship, on good comradeship, and
on thorough respect be happy one?Y
1 don't know. 1t might be a placid
one, it might be respectable one, but
n marriage without love cannot be the
one for which you or l were intend.
ed, writes Ruth Ashmore in Ladies'
Home Journal. Comradeship and re-
spect and thorough liking might be
all that were necessary during the sun
shiny days, but what would they
amount to when the gloomy DAYS
came?
And do you think If man were try
ing to solve some great question, were
trying to drive from his soul the demon
of unbelief, that he would turn to the
good comrade for help? No; he would
go to the woman who loved him, and
whom he knew knelt down every
night of her life and said a prayer for
him.
When people are suffering, mentally
or physically, they do not turn for help
or sympathy to that one whose speech
is brilliant and witty and whose brain
is strong, but they reach out, like lit
tie child, to that one who loves them
best, and whose heart is overflowing
with sympathy and pity. Friendship
is great blessing, but it cannot take
the place of love. And, if either man
or woman marry, believing that
friendly feeling will be sufficient in
their united lives, they surely in time
will realize only too sadly the posi-
bility of love coming to them, and the
dread of tragedy if he should be
greeted with joy. Therefore 1 say to
you, my girl, in building up your life
you need as foundation for its shelter
the cornerstone of love and no other
will answer. If in its place you put
friendship, mental sympathy, or good
comradeship, the house will topple
over when the wind of misery comes,
for its foundation stone will drift
away, carried along into the sands of
indifference, and you will stand alone,
weeping for that one who is not, and
having around you only friendship and
its kindness, while you long for love
and it's sympathy.

To two cupfuls of granulated sugar
add the grated rind and half the juice Of
small orange, together with enough
cold water to thoroughly moisten the
sugar. When it comes to a boil add
half q cupful of desiccated, or better,
freshly-grated cocoanut. Let it boil
without stirring until it stiffens in cold
water, so that you can take it up in a
very soft ball. Take from the fire and
set saucepan and all in cool place un-

vigorously until it becomes thick and
