BICYCLES ON STAR ROUTES.
wheelmen Are to Be Permitted
 to Garry Mail Bags This Year.
Win They Find It Proftable2-The Pay Is Small and the Work Is Hard, and Is Now often Done by Stage
 Drivers.
rcopYRreHr, 1896. l

A new field is about to be opened to the wheelmen of the United States and the whcelWomen, too. If they ce- sire to enterit. For years, in some cities, the bicycle has been employed by car riers to deliver letters from house to house within the limits. Now, ac- cording to Assistant Superintendent Jackson, of Uncle Sam's postal service, "star route'' contracts are to be thrown open to bicyclists, as well as to horse- men and stage drivers.
 "AIl the department requires, said Superintendent Jackson, day or two ago. "is that the mail shall arrive and depart at stated times, from each post office. We believe that in many cases and on many routes, better service can be got from the bicycle than from any other vehicle, and there is no reason why riders should not be asked 10 com pete for contracts to be let for carrying the mail between towns not reached by railroads. As bicycle riders can make better time, over roads they can use at all, than stage drivers or horsemen, the wheel will be given the preference, all other things being equal. Of course, this decision would not have been made but for the fact that the delivery of the mail by bicycle in cities has been en- tirely satisfactory"
 Whether many bicyclists can be in duced to take up the business of the carrying of mail is, however, an open question, since the pay of "star route carriers is small, and the carrier is obliged to go over his route at specified times no matter what difficulties are in the way, and entirely regardless of the weather, or the state of the roads. Ob- viously, bicycle mail carrying cannot be made a success, except in the summer time, in the country districts of the northern states. In the fall and spring the roads there are liable to be bottom less quagmires, and in the winter to be blocked with snow. In those western regions where the pony mail service has hitherto been employed it is hardly likely that the bicycle could be used ad- vantageously at any time of the year, for there the roads are often mere trails.
 A week is the longestinteryal elapsing in any instance between mail deliver ies. Some star route riders make two trips a day. The route between Bolton Landing and Lake George, \. l., a dis tance of 912 miles, is covered six times week, the schedule time between sta tions being three hours. The holder of this contract must file bond of $500, signed by two sureties, and the com pensation is $156 a year. The route from Garnet to Johnsburg, N. l., is 71a miles long, and the trip is made three times a week, the schedule time be- tween the stations being two hours. In this case the carrier files guarantee bond of $300, and receives yearly the munifcent salary of $87.90.
 At the present time nearly all the routes similar to those two are covered by stage drivers, who are able to supple ment the scanty pay received for carry ing the mail by fees from chance passen- gers

Turkish Insolence to Christians.

The Semaphore, published in Mar seilles, contains an interesting com mont written by it's Constantinople cor respondent Tt is the belief of the Mussulmans, from the highest 10 the lowest in the social scale, that all Eu- rope has just retreated before the Turk; their newborn arrogance, especially in the lower classes, knows no bounds. The street peddlereand they are legion in Constantinople- offer their wares with the air of ban dits who demand your money or your life. They impudently deceive their customers, and refuse to return change due to the purchaser, and all protesta- tlons are treated as insults to Islam and to themselves, for the faithful can do no wrong. On the other hand. Christians seem stricken with dread. lest an inedyertent action might prove their ruin. There is no discrimination now made between Europeans and Ar menians-all are alike dogs and slaves '"-Chicago Inter Ocean.

The Care of Your Lungs.

Careless neglect in the treatment O. a cold, or the ignoring of chest symP- toms that To not seem important, has been the regret of many who have awakened to find themselves suffering from serious lung trouble. Latent pneu- monias need as much, or even more, watching, care and prompt attention than those which are ushered in with q severe chill and accompanied by grave symptoms. During the winter months too strict attention cannot De paid to the laws of hygiene of the lungs; and if colds settle within the chest, or troubles arise in which there is more or less fever, with rapid pulse and sharp ness of breath, with respiratory depres- sion, it is best to look into the mat ter as closely as possible. and to use prompt measures for relief. Pneu- monia is not confined to severe and cold climates, for in some of the south ern states it is more prevalent than in the northern part of the country. Some have suggested that it occurs where the climate is dry, and that this dry ness of the atmosphere takes from the
 moisture of the tissues and renders them less resistant to atmospheric changes. Whether this be proven or not, we find pneumonia often occurring in places where it could not be looked for as a result of severe exposure or of sudden and extreme climatic changes N. Y. Ledger.

NEW BRAIDED GOWNS.
An Old-Fashioned Trimming Becomes
 Popular Once More.

Braid promises to be more popular than ever. A new design shown to-day at fashionable store carries the braid fancy to great length. The idea is the modification of an English style, and is very beautiful and artistic. The skirt is simple, being six-gored and puel<ered at the back in very fine folds. Around the bottom is border of red brown braid applied in double line, the upper line being a series of waves and the lower being waves of finer curvature, breaking at intervals into small tre- foils.
 Just below the belt the skirt is deco rated with the same kind of braid. ar ranged so as to produce the effect of single sprays of clover, suspended by q stem from the belt itself. This is all the braiding upon the skirt. The waist, however, is as opulent in braid as the skirt is poor.
 It is a blouse in general character, drawn in at the waist, where there is a large belt or ceinture of velvet. The braiding is applied so as to form the outline of n deeply indented yoke, with indentations so curved and indicated as to be almost fantastic.
 The braiding runs out upon the bal loon half way to where the latter curves in to meet the arm. From the edge of the yoke the braid is applied in fam hoyant lines with general vertical ii- rection, so as to cover the surface of the body from yoke to belt.
 The sleeve from wrist to elbow is also braided, the braid being applied so closely together as to make an almost continuous surface. This gown is most effective when made of Melton or other smoothly finished cloth in deep purple evicque. Venetian dark shades of blue. medium olive and smoke gray The braid itself. according to the English canons, should be of a dark tint, but of a complementary or supplementary color to the material With smoke gray it should be dark red brown. with pur- pie faded old gold, and with the blues it should be yellowish tan.-Detroit Free Press.

A STUDY IN SCARLET.
House Gown of White Crepe and Poppy
 Mousseline.


 Daring but becoming is afascinating house frocl1 made up of creepy stuff in silvery white over a rose pink taffeta lining. The Paquin skirt has all it's fullness brought narrowly together at the back, though the small gores get in at the feet and give it the appearance of fan all around.
 The bodice is an artistic creation of scarlet mousseline de soie, embroidered crepe and velvet. The broad bands of embroidered crepe form asbolero jacket at the front, and are brought down at either side of the back into the belt.
 A broad eeinture of scarlet velvet en- circles the waist, reaching almost to the bust in front and crushed into moderate width at the back, where it fastens invisibly under soft puff of the velvet. The stiff stock of velvet has two choux of crepe under either ear.
 The sleeves are bewildering and most difficult to describe Originally they consisted of huge loose puff, but they are SO drawn in and caught down that they resemble a big red rose more than anything else. A stiff band of the vel vet finishes them at the elbow.
 This Is particularly becoming to the pretty brunette who wears it. The scarlet serves as a tonic to her dainty coloring.
 An artistic house frock for blonde belle is made up of pelissed crepe de chine in a gorgeous pink over scarlet satin; the effect of the vivid red through the gauzy pink crepe is start ling and immensely fetching.
 In the same manner pale blue crepe is placed over the leaf green or silverv gray over bright yellow.-N. Y. Sun.

It Is Not Altogether Based Upon sIt
 tematic Plan.
 At recent afternoon ten, wheH there were a goodly number of ints ligent men and women assembled, \ conversation turned upon good hcuT keeping, and one of the guests VI asked to define the term.
 After a moments hesitation, nc aa swered:
 Good housekeeping is that s1 which embodies order, neals promptness and an average amcunl good temper. Allowing that the n'a| bers of the human family are e means angelic, one must not for too much, and it is therefore aEI of the philosophy of life to aV0dgn| expectations"
 Good housekeeping sad a10- member of the party, "is to na1 clean house, wholesome food at Tes4. meal hours and that restfulness fn'' never found where the presldlnsgss'|| of the establishment is fussy' niD,s worrisome and given to 1re''lDs trifes."

SUMMER GIRLS suFFERlNos.

She Reviews Them in the Cold Light of
 Autumn.
 My first fianee had the photographic habit dreadfully. Have you ever no- ticed, dear, that the amateur photog- rapher only snaps you when you have your mouth open, your eyes screwed up, or your hands so prominently m front of you that they come out in the photo as No. 11's2 writes a summer girl to her chum.
 Then he had a way-whieh l am sure was all carefully plannsd-of pasting all these photographic freaks into a scrap-boolI and showing them to men who had asked to be introduced to me. The plan was very effectual.
 My second fanee had the bicycle hab- it. l can understand man earning has bread by the sweat of his brow, but it is distinctly unpleasant when a man earns his recreation by the same thing, and such lot of it.
 A constantly perspiring beau has a dampening effect upon girls spirits and shirtwaist sleeves. And then one hates to be embraced by mass of acute anglesl
 My third thought that I was clever. My dear, there is no infiction so great as man who believes his sweetheart to be so clever that she sees through every thing that isn't the bald and unpaat- able truth. You will hardly believe me when l tell you that this man believed so firmly in my colossal and penetrat- ing intellect that he never paid me a single compliment during the whole of our three weeks engagement!
 He told me nothing but the truth about myself, and it was like being put l. oon diet of iron tonic, without any thing to disguise the taste of it. felt like going to q society photographer just to get pr erly iiattered little.
 My next had the bathing habit and insisted, with the brutal selfshness of man, that I should always duck my head so as not to get headache. My dear, my hair wasn't in curl for two whole weeks Just as though any woman wouldn't rather feel ill than look homely.
 My next fiance thought that he was analytical and was always giving me a detailed synopsis of my character. You can't think how dreadful it is to have serious man constantly appeal ing to feelings that one hasn't got and trying to live up to his wrong impress sions.
 And then, analytical men always have cold hands.
 The next was horribly accurate man, who would talk literature. 1 guess you have encountered this kind of man. He has shiny high forehead and frayed cuffs and always assumes the stingy thing-that you don't take wine with your dinner.
 He remembered the name of every character of Dickens and Thackeray and when I had said (merely for the sake of being agreeable) that 1 had read the books he prosed about, he always found out, by adroit question: ing, that I hadn't. It's so narrow minded of man not to consider mo tives.-N. Y. World.
