That is a sweet and valuable 1eaven
which the two young Japanese women
just now leaving the Chicago Baptist
hospital, after the completion of their
course as trained nurses, have cast about
them. One of them was asked by the
superintendent one day how she always
managed to be SO happy, and she said
that the children in Japan were taught
that, no matter what happened, they
should always appear cheerful and not
make others wretched.
These young women will return in
July to their home and expect to open a
hospital in Tokyo. One of them, Miss
Sakaki, is the daughter of member Of
the japanese parliament, a very wealthy
man, and the other, Miss Nagano, is the
only child of a rich japanese merchant.
They have been in America nearly three
years, pursuing thorough course in the
profession which they have adopted

= Dainty Summer Costume.

The material of the gown is summer
silk showing q blue satin stripe upon
black The skirt is made with the usual
flare, and while it is stiffened and stands
out well still it does not appear, as the
skirts that are overstiffened, to stand
out beyond the underskirts. The bodice
is slightly fulled in the back and draped
across the front, writes Isabel A. Mallon
in The Ladies Home Journal A square
yoke of blue satin, like the stripe, is
overlaid with coarse black lace, and the
collar is of the black lace also, with two
tiny rosettes in blue ribbon, one at each
side of the center of the front. The
sleeves are large and so lined that they
stand out well, shaping into cuffs of
blue satin OVERLAND with black lace. The
belt is Of broad blue satin ribbon folded
about the waist, and falling in two long
ends at the back, so that its width and
beauty are seen.

Hanging Baskets.

Hanging baskets are always desirable
for a handsome summer window garden,
and it is of special Importance to have
them deep enough to hold plenty of soil,
so that the roots will not lie against the
sides of the porous pot and become
scorched in the hot suns The summer
blooming oxais is always satisfactory for
this purpose, as the rich mass of foliage
will soon droop down and cover the
sides Of the baskets, and the graceful
spikes and clusters of bloom will con-
tinue to develop all summer long. The
various tradescantias, with their hand
some variegations, should also find
place in these hanging baskets. It is
easily rooted from slips, and a small
plant purchased now will produce many
thrifty plans before warm weather if the
branches are broken at all the joints and
rooted in dishes Of sand, and when plant
ed in the baskets they will soon form
ropes Of handsome glossy foliage. -Ex-

The public needs to be educated to
every new idea. They poke fun at each
new invention until it becomes of prac-
teal use. What is more useful than the
eye? We have to use that organ for
each invention. A man would say:
take from me everything but leave me
my eyes" And yet that very organ of
which we think so much is abused more
than any other
Prof. Samuels claims that a great
many diseases can be traced to the
eyes, and that if the eye were only
better understood, there would not be
so much sickness, aud very little medi-
cine would be used. Who knows more
about this than the man that has made
a study of it for quarter of q century?
He has cured hundreds of people in To-
peka, and all are ready to proclaim his
greatness. If you are having trouble
with your glasses, throw them away. and
then consult Prof. Samuels.
All nervous trouble positively cured
through treatment of the eyes.

Girls Save a Ruilding FROM Rurning.

restaurant from destruction by fire at

the roof, and by systematic arrange

RUINS CANAL BUSINESS.
Railroads Make So Low Rates Canals
Get Nothing to Carry.

BUFFALO, N. Y, May 29.-Three hun
dred canal boats are lying rotting in the
water here, as the result of the low
freight rates on grain to New York.
The shipments of grain from the west
are fully up to the average so far this
season, the terminal elevators having
already handled 100000 bushels, yet
out of this the canal has had only three
boat loads, notwithstanding the very low
rates offered by the boatmen, 17sc for
wheat and 1ac for oats.
The explanation given by the canal
men of the enormous decline in business
is that the railroads have ngents in every
corner of the country, and by added fa-
cilities are able to keep cutting down the
rates until a scale has been reached
which is ruinously low.
