speekied Roses.

The art of Horticulture has never yet
solved the problem of how nature can be
made to produce roses having spots and
speckles. But having done her work in
the ordinary way, scionce may step In and
effect by chemical means what she dis
dains Procure flower nearly blown and
of a rich red color Touch its petals re-
pcatedly with glass stirrer that has been
dipped in an ethereal solution of ammonia
Wherever the stirrer deposits a spot of am-
monia the petal will change 70 q bright
blue If a solution In wator Of sulphurous
acid be employed, white spots win be OBJ
tanned. Should the entire flower bc Inn
mersed in tho ammoniacal solution, the
phenomenon Of blue rose results while
if plunged into the sulphurous acid a
waxy white flower is obtained. Having
produced as many spcckles ON the rose as
desired, it is well TO wash carefully the
flower I'm pure water ip order 60 remove

The Indians of Guiana Build Beyond tho
Reach of Floods.
Interest in the Guiana country naturally
centers about the most fertile region, that
which commands the mouth of it, great
waterway. AS you approach the Orinoco
from the gulf of paria you still see that
picturesque sight to which Humboldt re-
fers in his travels, "innumerable fires IN
tho tall palm trees, the dwelling places
of the peaceful Guaraunos
The legend that this strange tribe OF In
dams, once the masters Of the Orinoeo,
live in trees the entire year results from
the great annual rise Of the Oriuoco. At
Ciudad Bolivar, 300 miles up, this amounts
sometimes in a contracted place to so feet.
On the broader delta it Is always sufficient
TO cover islands and low ground There
fore the Inhabitants very wisely build their
houses well above the ground For this
purpose four tall palm trees are selected,
and the crosspieces which form tho foun-
dation for the houses are lashed TO the
main support by pieces Of q tough vine in
digenous TO the delta Upon these is laid
the flooring. and then the sides aud ROOT
are thatchod with large palm leaves, t'
which the Indians have given the poetic
name of feather of the sun. ."
There are many advantages which this

of the same family, tho principal one be

of resisting fire. In the location of bis

capes, short capcs, jackets and long smoth-

her ball and opera finery. Short fitted
Jackets with basques and short capes odd
ly slashed at the bottom are the most popu

there are some little adjusted bodiccs, W 18th

fetching.
These are realized in the fashionable skins

lamb, broadtail and sealskin. Trimmings
are contrasting furs, as ermine With lamb
and sable with sealskin, or else are in tho
shape of vests and bands of undressed

fetching little garments, which seem in

purposes.

is worthy of description. This was CON-
cciyed of sealskin in an Eton model, with
close vest and broad belt of brown leather
embossed with dressed kid In lighter
shade. The neck was finished with one OF

| all the wraps this season, ruffled higher

| over the whole were three heavy Jet chains
\ fastened at each side Of the Eton fronts
with handsome round ornaments. The re-
! suit was enchanting and suited to only
the slimmest womaninthe world.

most success sfm ways of relieving indiGes-

good general rule that when massage is
agreeable it is also beneficial, and when
disagreeable it is injurious.
Strength and geutleness must go together

length; the palm of the hand is used fiat
on back and abdomen; the muscles OF the
limbs are graspe1, aud after the back is
treatedtheChestiSg genuytapped and pressed

Massage of the face cannot be completely
taught without visible Illustration. Lut
few useful movements can be described, and
nothing further should be attempted by the
novice. With tie fingers the face, from the
corners of the mouth, should be softly rub
bed up and outward. this tending TO prevent
the hard line that often settles from the
nose down, as the checks tend to fan IN
ward; the forehead can be rubbed with the
fingers from the center toward the temples;
for double chin Que simple movement is
invaluable: no one need have double chin;
but the remedy should be Tesorted to early,
as in later life the skin loses its elasticity.
and It is better to have u double chin than q
dew-lap. Rub under the chin W ith the fingers,
beginning under one side and drawing
them out at the other; this done with first
one hand and then the other makes many
strokes a minute possible, and the flesh un-

stomach and abdomen in tine same way, a
rotary movement being most effective.
In all massage it is well to oil the hand
with cocoa oil. In cases OF emacistion
as much oil as the skin Of the patient
will absorb should be rubbed iu in the
course of the usual movements. Oil also
tends to sooth nervous patients, and is
often most grateful.
