Nor do we in our furnace of steam heated houses need thirteen separate suits superimposed, like the Japanese maid, kneeling red-nosed over her tiny pan of blazing charcoal in midwinter; It's sort of a. modified Japanese, which buttons on.

 The most purely decorative of the summer parasols are of white taffeta with white enameled ribs and lace founces. Ivory handles with gold fin ish make very pretty pieces of bric-a- brac out of articles which ill-advised persons might think were meant to be useful. There are parasols yelled with mousseline de soie and dotted with punches of violets, but women exist who, for prudential reasons only, will choose simple changeable silks in gray or brown tones, with tape borders in dull red, blue or orange.
 To wear with a pretty ginghan gown a woman is supposed to want pink chiffon parasol, with an enormous quantity of the stuff gathered in at the top with big bow of ribbon and with a broad ruffle frilled about the bottom. Such a parasol, not every woman has attained to know, is wholly inappropriate with tailor gown.
 Spring capes are very short to cover the shoulders. They are made in taffe tas or in moire and covered with lace and ribbons

a success, and thus I won my first s10o. But starting business in San Francisco in 1S49 lost heavily until my funds were so low that in order to get to Sac ramento earned my passage money thither on schooner by helping to load her at s1 an hour. In Sacramento 1 started in business in tent with 1ir1- tied stock of general merchandise, and there 1 secured the first s100 that may be said to have kept to the present time"
 Philip D. Armour, the Chicago pork packer, whose fortune is estimated at 10000, 900, said: "I got the first s100 of the fortune now possess by digging and washing gold. I started for Cali fornia in lS49 and drove team of six mules across the plains. There l dug and washed away until I was pretty well wearied, and then l got some washings that 1 sold for s100, the first time ever possessed so large sum-"
 Andrew Carnegie explained that his first s100 was saved from salary paid to him by Thomas Scott, president of the Pennsylvania railroad
 Senator John P. Jones, of Nevada, sometimes called the silver king, said that he found his first money in the ground, but he earned it. He went to California in 1849 and worked as a miner in placers and tunnels and there made a small beginning of his fortune.
 The late Senator Stanford often told how he earned his first s10O. It was as lawyers fee. He was practising in Ozankee county, Washington territory, and defended man accused of murder-' ing a peddler. The most damaging fact against him was that ring be-l longing to the murdered man was found on the prisoners hand.
 Addressing the jury in the most sol- emn manner Stanford said: Before God, swear that I know this man is innocent"
 His attention was then attracted to spectator who was in a state of great emotion. Going to him he said: This is the guilty man." The man confessed and explained that the peddler's ring was pulled off in the death struggle. Stanford received from his client s100, which he always afterward preserved.

straw, with flight of black-birds about the crown, the broad wings ex- banding in front with an effect that was most daring.
 After this she tried a huge black straw with 1eur de lis velvet folded in loose band about the crown and with short black ostrich pluncs nodding 5vcr the edge of the velvet in dancing circle Over the hair behind trooped two or three great purple ard yellow fleur de lis, with their green lily flags accompanying.
 A third effect was hat of yellow wheat straw just touched with brown. Its trimmings were huge yellow roses with green leaves, shading in spots into crimson.
 At wedding reception day or two ago, saw tho prettiest bonnet of this spring. 1t was worn by little woman in dark blue dress sprayed with scar let poppies, and it was woven of green and brown poppy stems with the scarlet flowers nodding all over it in welcome to tho smiling sunshine and the smiling flower season. There were budding poppies. half-blown poppies and pop pies full-sprcad to the winds. It was toque-shaped, and in front lay two mother poppies, big, with deep, soft crushed petals, above which rose long loops of the green stems.
 At the same wedding festivities the bridesmaids wore pale violet silk dresses with low-crowncd, crcam-col- orcd sailor hats. about the crowns of which were full wreaths of violets twisted with pale mauve ribbons. The two attendants on the bride, one pale blonde, the other clcar-sllinned, colorless brunette, seemed to find the combination equally attractive and be- coming. If 1 were getting up hat of this sort l would have the straw black and the trimming wild roses wound with pale green ribbons.

gust II, 1641 In l727 Sir John Curzon, sat in parliament, as did his son, Sir Nathaniel. This Sis Nathaniel was made peer-given the title of Baron Scarsaale-April Q, i761. He married a daughter of the earl of Portmore. The third Baron Scarsdale died in 1858 and was succeeded by his nephew, Alfred Nathaniel Holden Curzon, the present baron. He was born in 1886 and mar ried Blanche, the second daughter of Joseph. Poclslington-Sinhou Esq, of Hetherhall, Cumberland. George Ma thaniel Curzon was born January II, 1859.

 believe in the great brotherhood of man, and believe that the only gcnu- inc standard to be erected by society IS that of true noble genuine manhood. But what is the standard that infu- ences the boys and girls of our land worth If they do not measure up to it's heights and out to it's breadths? The home circle is the place for the stand ard to be lifted The home circle is the place where truth is to be taught and wisdom to be learned The home circle the place where example must be set and prccepts taught.
 Let us learn the lesson thoroughly, that all life centers in the home life, and all forces radiate from the home life. The instincts of the tramp were developed in his home life. The in- stincts of the dude were developed in the home life 1t Is impossible for some homes in this world to turn out anything else upon the world but a dude or a tramp. For parents to turn out either of these characters from homes into the world ought to be con sidercd crime, punishable by fine and imprisonment.
 The penalty ought to be doubly severe for turning out a dude, for tramps seldom marry-dudes do. The instincts of the tramp are buried with him, those of the dude arc transmitted to posterity The tramp is only bur sdcn to the generation in which he lives, the dude will curse generations to come of his children and grandchildren if they are like him. The sooner these nuisances are abated the better for the world
 Whenever any line of life that is not manly and noble is considered profes- sion that fact becomes calamity. To say a man is professional man we nat urally associate him with some of the nobler professions, such as law and medicine, science, etc., but a profes- sional dude or a professional tramp is not only a nuisance to society, but they are . blot upon all professions if they dignify their line of life by calling it profession.
 There may be excuses somewhere and somehow why man is tramp, but there is no reason in Heaven ot' earth or hell why any man should be a dude. There may be some apology for the dudcen, but who can offer one for being a dude? If we would abolish these two professions, let us teach our boys that no one but an idiot would be a dude, and nobody but vagabond much to help us in ridding ourselves of the dudes, and the boys can largely render the tramp thing of the past by letting them die with this generation.

flee recently. She sought the office of the most good-naturcd editor "Ah, just stepped in to sec if you were here. It is so long since l have seen you"
 Now, this was not strictly true, for she had seen the good-natured editor the day before, but, in point of fact, she had new gown. The good-na- tured editor noticed the dress and re- flected incidentally on the ways of clever young women. Or perhaps he reflected on the ways of clever young women and noticed the dress incident ally. The distinction is not material. The dress is. For it was built with one of the new skirts
 Do you appreciate the new skirts? Do you realize what the clever young woman and other young women have como to this Easter? The young womans dress was constructed of leaf green cloth with draperies glove-fitting at the hips, and seven or eight yards around at the bottom. To graduate a skirt of those dimensions is task that might engage the services of a civil en- gineer. It is the most exact and the most expressing of sciences, failure in winch means financial ruin; success, shekels and the smiles of the clever young woman.
 The new skirt has gores past count ing. It is scanned till it is all stitches, and might almost as well be made

been found in little dry fruit growing in Java, and described recently in La Mature. The fruit is about an inch and a half long and cigar-shaped, and ex- lplodes with a loud report if placed into water after floating for two or three minutes. It can be shown in an ordi- nary water tumbler. The force devel- oped is sufficient to tear apart the two halves of the pericarp and to hurl one of them with the greater number of seeds quite forcibly into the air. The fruit grows on tree of the specles of acanthaceas, probably of the justicia grandifora, common in the Sunda islands and the peninsula of Malacca.

The result is peculiar. One is a living pie ture, or whereabouts, to the thighs; be- low that one sweeps and sways and trails.
 The clever girl had black jet to cover the seams of her green skirt in front, and, indeed, as the fashion is, all the way around.
