A Dainty Baby Carriage.

A dainty baby carriage is one OF the things
which every mother likes to possess and yet
a nice one is. as a rule, very expensive. One
mother, however, succeeded so well In max
ing a really handsome buggy at a COMPARE
lively small expense that a description OF II
may aid other mothers to achieve equally
satisfactory results.
In the first place, she bought at second hand
a plain but well made willow carriage with
easy springs. The body Of this she had en-
amelled with French white enamel, which
gave a very handsome and lasting finish.
This she succeeded in having done for 81.
The next step was to upholster 1t anew. For
this purpose she used cream white corduroy
and did the work herself. 1t took time and
| some patience, but was not really difficult,
The edges were finished with cream white
furniture gimp and the result was most en-
couraging. The strap Of the buggy was Gov
cred with a full piece Of white wash silk with
a full bow and fr.nged ends tied in the middle
The parasol was a plain cream white sateen.
A cover for this was made Of fine white Swiss
null, accordion plated and fastened at the
top with a bow Of the wash silk.
The effect when done was exquisite and
those friends to whom she confided the secret
Of its cost could scarcely believe that the total
amount expended was but $l2.

Autumn Fashions for the Little Maids

md Men.
NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-September is a
month Of sore trial, both in flesh and spirit,
to the very young person and her brother,
who are now making periodic trips to town
in search OF suitable clothes for school and
the winter. Along with the solid comfort and
healthful protection a good deal of French
daintiness in taste Is being commingled IN
Juvenile fashions this autumn.
Over from France have come, for little
girls. any number of novel fabrics. and the
whole obiec, now seems to tend toward
bringing much cheerful color into school and
street gowns, by the use Of stripes and
pierced cloths.
The stout fannels, as soft and heavy as
ladies' cloth. are dyed In al least four har-
monized tones, showing yellow, red and
brown laid in narrow bars on a dull blue
ground and all the tones employed almost
Oriental in richness. Occasionally these
fannels are figured, displaying a small
Persian pattern, done in blue and yellow on
an Indian red ground. and then, in pretty
contrast. are the pierced cloths and wide
vale. loose woven serges, of which the hrst
good use was made in England.
However, as everything comes from Paris
bearing its own stamp Of originality. II Is
not surprising to find that this seasons

KINDERGARTEN GOWN.
Here. for example, is one prepared for a
kindergarten graduate, of soft, dark blue
Cowes serge. The skirt, laid in wide box
pleats, flares at the hem and is adjusted to
a short-waisted little body, almost covered by
a great ive-pointed collar falling capewise
over the shoulders and full sleeves. Deep
about the hem of the skirt, all the width Of
the collar and up to the elbows, runs a
wide band of black and red embroidery, a
skeleton pattern. worked out in a twist of
mingled silk and wool and done with a big
pointed ivory pin. The effect is at once gay
and most suitable to the little wearer, whose
skirts, as is now the mode with all woman
kind under IA, fall only just over the round
ing points of the knees.
In place of long skirts, stout ribbed, knitted
stockings will be worn, Of a rich blue, with
such a gown as is described above, and show
ing fine red silk clocks above the shoe tops.
When out of doors little leggings of soft,
heavy suiting, to match the color of the
dress, will be buckled over just the legs,
from ankle to high on the knee, and
so protect tender young limbs from any un-
warranted exposure.
The shoes themselves, 1t may be well to
remark in passing, are nearly all this winter
made very high buttoned, the foxing of
stout, dull, black suiting, and the small

rights. If a passenger thinks an ordinary
male conductor has kept back even one little
nickel he will keep up rowing about 1t as
long as he is on the car and will write an IN
dignant letter to the company or the papers,
in which he says that he does not care Tor
the money, but that he feels a great principle
is at stake and in order that that principle
may be indicated he tries to escape paying
his fare whenever he can. But that same
man is an utter coward.
In view of the fact that as soon as what
has happened at Bay City becomes generally
known other street car companies VIII be
importuned by other women to allow them TO
act as conductors for a day, so as to make
some money, it ought to be understood that
the collection of treble or quadruple fares is
all wrong and should not be tolerated. 1t is
practicing robbery under the guise OF charity.
If women want to play the part of con-
ductors, so be it, but If they cheat any one
let it be the company and not the public.
But the simplest plan will be for the COM
pany to give its check for whatever amount
it wants to and keep the women off its cars,

they had satisfied themselves that every
thing was all right. The receipts were un-
usually large, so that there was a consider
able sum for the Masonic association, while
the company lost nothing by its generosity.
One reason why the receipts were so large
was that the new conductors adopted the
methods of the charity bazaar. They gave no
change. If a man handed one of them a
quarter he was told pleasantly that I'VE 40
not give change today" II he was mean
and stood up for his rights, which he was
ashamed TO do generally. the conductor looked
reproachfully at him and he was carried as
far beyond his destination as possible. Most
of the men, being unwilling to make a scene,
submitted to being gouged.
This shows what men will put up with
from women, and how easily the latter can
trample on them and deprive them OF thelr

leather. Indeed. without a touch of this
bright vanished leather the child Of the
season is scarcely dressed within the pale of
fashion, for shoes, school bags and belts are
all made OF 1t, and little boys are going to
wear very soon demi-billycock hats of dark
blue, green and brown felt, clasped round
with wide crown bands of patent leather.

and TO give the proper effect let the skirt be
wide, quite fingered and gathered with equal
fulness into all parts of the waistband. A
deep hem finishes the bottom, and a fiat,
broad linen collar or narrow outstanding row
of whipped-ln lace completes the neck, while
the middle of the wearer's little body is
clasped by a broad patent leather strap and
buckle Of the same material. With two or

Eucalyptus Oil
Editor Herald One of the audience at
my Eucalyptin lecture before the h Glen
tifc society asked me the proportion OF
oil contained, in eucalyptus foliage.
My reply seems to have been misun.
derstood and take this means of making
more specific answer to the question
asked.
Eucalyptus foliage contains oil accord
ing to the species from which the foliage
is taken. Some species OF eucalyptus
contain scarcely any oil and others over
3 per cent. The foliage of no species IS
now used fol- the commercial production
OF oil that contains less than IA per
cent.
The eucalyptus globulus is used exclus-
lively for the production of eucalyptus oil
in California. 1t is also the main re-
lance for oil in France, Italy and AL
giers. The eucalyptus globulus foliage
with us contains from u to ls per
cent oil.
The product of oil varies from the same
species with soil, temperature and hui
midity.
The species mainly used for oil pro-
duction in Australia are the several va
rieties OF eucalyptus amygdalna and
those of the malice shrub
This shrub is made of several species
OF eucalyptus some of which produce
good oil and some of which do not. The
oil product from California is pure il OF
eucalyptus globulus, from plantations
of this tree. The oil product OF Australia
is from the native growth and is gener
ally mixed.
The importance of this purity of our
eucalyptus oil or rather OF Its uniform
chemical constituents may be appreciated
from the following facts:
CinooI ic uaporally ola ned
to be the exclusive therapeutic agent of
eucalyptus oil. While this claim is by
no means demonstrated, it IS still clearly
better to have Gin sol in an Oil in our
present knowledge than not to have it.
Eucalyptus globulus oil contains 60
per cent cineol. Its other constituents
are valcraldehyde. butyraldebyde, cap
ronaldehyde and pinene. The aldehyoes
give the pungent odor and touch TO the
oil but are not deemed useful. Most of
mallees contain cineol. But the amyg-
dalinas, one of the great Australian
sourcs of eucalyptus oil, contain, no
appreciate cineol and in its place have
the chemical formula Of which is Clio.
H-l6. The chemical formula of clneol is
Clio H-16. q. H.Maidew, f. G. s.
From these facts it can be seen that
conscientious and competent physician
would prefer the California and the
Australian eucaly plus oil.
For perfume the oil of eucalyptus
maculata, variety citriodoa, Is used.
This oil contains 95 per cent citronellon.
and per cent geraniol. There is, how
ever, another species that will probably
take the cltriodora's place for oil. Thu
is the lemon scented IRON bark. eucalyp-
tus staigeriana, which is even sweeter and
contains citral. The oils of both are very
volatile.
1t is to be regretted that Klussman's
eucalyptus oil factory near Florence in
this country was burned and not re-
est blished. There is room for this in
dustry here. ABBOT KINNEY.
