to the hair by a dropping flower. Of course, the lace Is of some very expensive sort, than nothing Is more becoming On this same model little bonnets are made with @ tiny crown of flowers as foun- datlon, the effect being gained from the falling of the lace frill about the face. Some of the little hats are shown with only two tabs of lace falling at the sides, the crown of flowers being set well back on the head and the en- tire length of the part being exposed. This Is 0 little pronounced, however. Hats like this pictured one abound and are found in very pretty mixtures of straw, which is turned up, as shown here, all about the brim. This one Is trimmed with ribbon loops and a few flowers. The bloom applied to hats is often in sprangllng branches, from which a huge and brilliant blossom or two waves about. At first glance 1t seems as if these flowers must quickly shake themselves loose.
 The bud may now draw her hair down the sides of her head from a cen tral parting that a tiny little fringe of a bang defies, and braid the front locks i'm with the back hair, the braid start ing well up the head. Tie the braid at its beginning close to the head turn its end under at the nape of the neck and press down the edges of the braid to the sides of the head Let the rib bon of the tie form pretty bow, and a. fancy pin Is admissible. Up to eigh- teen this fashion is charming.

 took up his abode with MT. Stephen ChiDdrey, who had been commissary of the prison, and while there had general ly had him fed. Some time in the sum- mer of 1865 some Yankee took the dog and carried him through the northern states and exhibited him as a show to the people. Flaming advertisements were posted about him. He was said to be the dog which was kept at Libby Prison to eat Yankee prisoners, and his qualities, disposition and immense size were set forth in grandiloquent style. This, of course, attracted public atten- tion, and much money was realized from this exhibition. MT. Childrey, who accompanied him on this northern tour, returned home some six months thereafter, and he told me that his share of the profits was three thousand dollars.

AN rNrERESrrNG DECAY.

The decay of going to meeting is
 one of the decays which is attracting
 good deal of attention. It is also in-
 citing a good deal of effort to stop it.
 We now have one sermon where we
 used to have two. And the one sermon
 is less than half as long as the two
 used to be. We have fine organists and
 choirs which produce scientific and
 more or less sacred music We have
 other things intended to make going
 to meeting attractive, or at least en-
 durable. But none of them seems to
 work with that efficacy which is de-
 sirable. People do not flock to meeting
 as they ought to. Even the short ser
 mon Is too long for many and the scien-
 tific and more or less sacred music
 Is not resistless attraction. Those
 interested in increasing the attendance at meeting are actively casting about for ways to do it. Dr. Leighton Parks, a Boston preacher, hopes that he has hit upon a scheme that will work. His
 notion is that if people can go to meet ing early enough in the morning
 to have good long day left after they have done their religious duty they will go. So he has proposed that an early service shall be held at S:SO 8. m. which people can attend and still have enough of Sunday left for days outing. For the last two Sum- days he has tried the experiment. which he suggested. He has opened his church at the hour named for a brief service suited to the needs of those who feel that they must use the day for recreation and pleasure.
 This move is an interesting one and shows that the minister who makes it is in earnest. But we do not think it will bring the result that is hoped for The plain truth is that people stay away from meeting because they don't want to go. They do not stay away on account of any inconvenience in the time of service. And they cannot be drawn to meeting by any change in the time of. service. Nor do we think the attendance would be greatly in- creased if, in addition to the fine music 1 and the short sermons, and the other !! which already exist, the | churches should advertise to furnish | billiard tables, tennis courts and base ball grounds for the use of those who | would come to meeting and sit pa tiently through the services. The difi- | culty is a deep one and cannot be over come by devices which deal only with | the symptoms of 1t. The lures to meet | ng are already numerous enough and l worldly enough. It might mot be a | pad idea for the churches to throw over the whole business of making re- igion attractive" and pay all their to making it saving. The idea 1f fishing for men with artificial bait las something artificial in it.

It is announced that the transporta- Rion of western perishable fruits is to be anything but a monopoly during the coming season. The business has been held almost exclusively in the hands of the refrigerator companies, which have run a system of refrigerator cars from the Pacific coast to Chicago and fhence through to the eastern cities. Naturally this traffic has grown from small beginnings to large proportions, and the profits have finally become so attractive that other companies, though mot able to infringe upon the patents covering the refrigerator system, have decided to make an effort to secure a part of the trade. The Southern Pa ciffc, in conjunction with the Union Pa ciflc and the Chicago and Northwestern railroads, have ordered between 1900 and 1,500 ventilator cars, to be run in competition with the refrigerator sys- tenn of the established companies. It cannot be claimed that the ventilator cars will preserve green fruit for as long a time as the refrigerator cars, but to offset the disadvantage a quick CT time of transit will be adopted, and the shipper will thus be insured against loss by delays and consequent damage to fruit. During the busy sea- son trains made up of ventilator cars will be run daily, and it is expected that they will be able to deliver in good con- dition everything except the most per- ishable fruits, such as cherries and apricots. The cost of transportation by this new system will be considerably less than by the old method, and the growers are expecting a corresponding increase in the demand for their prod ucts in the eastern markets.

A standard thread for screws has been adopted by the French Navy de- pertinent which is in principal the sys- fem advocated by the Societe d'Encour- agement pour pIndustries Nation ale; and an important step toward the adoption of the system throughout France. It is, of course, based on the metric system, the diameters of the screws increasing by two millimetres from up to 32; after that the difference increases, but alwayF by an even mum ber of millimetres. The pitch increases by half a millimetre.

NEWSPAPERS IN TURKEY.
The Strict Censorship Causes Large De-
mand For the Foreign Journals.

Constantinople leads the world in the
sale of foreign newspapers i'll its streets.
Each day IL laden post train comes in from
the west, and by early afternoon tho city
is swarming with newsboys loaded down
with journals from all the great capitals
of Europe. These papers are snapped up
with avidity, not only by the foreign col
onies of the Crescent City, but by tho
Turks themselves, who show q much
greater liking for the journals printed out
side of Turkey than they do for the pro
auctions of their own presses.
This is not strange, for, as fact, Turk
ish journalism is very weak and has little
vitality. Every newspaper published in
Constantinople has to pay an imperial tax
of paras (amounting to one fifth of u
cent? for each copy published. Foreign
sheets are exempt from any tax whatever.
Besides this the sultan has royal CEN
sor who is quite as rigorous and severe as
the state censor is in Russia. Turkish
editors are prohibited from discussing
questions of the day in their columns, and
they are also not permitted to publish the
most important foreign kilograms.
Strangely enough, though, the foreign
papers that come into the Ottoman empire
are never cut, "blacked"-that is, part
of their contents smudged out, Ia Russia
OR suppressed. Naturally, therefore, the
residents of Constantinople have to turn

Development of a Chick.

The Development of a chick within the
egg is one OF the most wonderful things
in nature. At the end of the fifty-eighth
hour of incubation the heart begins to
beat, two vesicles are seen and few hours
later the auricles also appear. On the
fourth day, the outlines of the wings may
be perceived and sometimes of the head
also; on the fifth day the liver is visible;
on the sixth, other internal organs appear.
In 100 hours the beak is fully formed; in
200 hours the ribs are clearly developed
In 24O hours the feathers are visible; in
26S hours the eyes appear; in 2SS the ribs
are completed and the feathers on the
breast; in $50, the lungs, stomach and
breast have assumed a natural appearance.
On the eighteenth day the first faint pip
ing of the chick is sometimes audible.
