Art,aciar diamonds Once More.

The French chemist, Henri Moissan,
whose recent visit to this country
awoke fresh interest in his expert
ments on making artificial diamonds
by fusing charcoal and iron together
in his electric furnace, has, since his
return to Paris, somewhat improved
his methods. Formerly most of the
minute diamonds produced by his
process were black in color, but now
all are white. They are exceedingly
hard. scratching rubies easily, and an
swering other tests for pure diamonds
1t does not appear, however, that Mon
sieur Moissan has been able to increase
the size of the gems that he turns out

ers alike. That at the left was made
Of light red cashmere, its full skirt
hanging in deep plaits at the sides.
The little bodice had a cut-out filled
in with a white silk yoke and collar,
its double revers were black velvet
banded with lace, and the sleeves had
tight cuffs and small puffs. A fancy
cord ornament appeared on the bodice
in front, and a belt Of red satin ribbon
confined the waist.
Blue and white dotted cloth was the
fabric of the other little dress, whose
skirts had a panel of dark blue silk in
the center of the front, pearl buttons
ornamenting the cloth edges. The bod
ice was gathered back and front, had
a blue silk yoke and a rippled basque.
Neither of these dresses offers serious
problems for the mother who is ac-
customed to make her daughters cloth
ing, and each one would make its little
wearer as proud as a duchess.
Boys at the age of these pictured
lassies used to have as little to say
about the style of their get-ups a. their
small sisters, but the youngsters have
won their mothers over, for 1t is a fad
nov to put the little chaps into long
trousers as soon as possible. If his
trousers are of sailor cut, they are cut
wide ove the foot, and If the mother
is notional, the fronts are creased. The
Fauntleroy mother still fiourishes and
all sorts Of wonderful velvet and frilled
shirt rigs are offered for her choice.

with a handsome bow at one side for
a finish. The little bolero turns back
with a pair OF jaunty revers and un-
der them is set a fall Of lace that the
outline of the revers may be clear. This
same little bolero can be worn over a
black satin blouse. the result being a
very stunning black costume. OF course
the brocaded ivory g~renadine can also
be used with something else, as sleeves
are provided that hook on at the shout
der. When the sleeves are on the bro
cade is at once a complete bodice, and
worn under a green velvet bolero and
cashmere skirt the effect is as jaunty
as II 1t had been made for use with
the green.
Paradise plumes still sweep. A beau

black jet tiara frame, from the front
of which a splendid paradise plume
mounts. This plume watts its airy
length backward, and 1t is held by a
Jet and emerald buckle. That is all
there is to the affair, but 1t simply
shrieks exclusiveness in every atom Of
It.

The ventilation Of Mines.

There is a rich field open for inven-
tors who take up the subject of the
ventilation of mines. So great are the
risks that mine-owners would be will
ing to try almost any experiment that
gave promise of relief from the dread
of accidents. In mining there are ever
present dangers on account of gases
that collect in various portions of the
underground passages. When with the
most improved methods Of ventilation,
gases will collect, or the air may be-
come filled with coal dust, which, when
it takes fire, is almost as dangerous as
GAS.

bicycle to BE Used Under Shelter.
The new house bicycle shown is a
French machine, called by it's inventor
the "Hygienique." and is essentially
a medical apparatus, combining as 1t
out-of-door exercise without any Of the
detrimental features of bicycling, es-
p~ecially to invalids, ~convalescents, or
people who are lacking in physical
strength required for a long spin on
a regulation bicycle. This machine is
simple, consisting of a regular saddle
which may be regulated in height, ped
ais and sprocket, connected by a sec
ond chain to a double crank carrying
a brake. This double crank is located
just under the handle bars, and, II de-
sired, can be used by the hands to give
the same. exercise to the arms as to
the lower limbs, or to help rheumatic
limbs to pedal, or both. The exercise
to be derived from cycling has always
been urged as an advantage. But ex-
cessive cycling, by both sexes, has
proven to be extremely harmful to
health and consequently to beauty and
shape. These last are matters which
the fair sex have found to be of great
Importance. The exercise alone is con-
sidered good for the rheumatic and
equity when taken in moderation. In
fact moderation is the one thing that
is positively essential to avoid the
greatest injury.
The exercise afforded by the house
machine is exactly the same, with the
added feature of exercise to the upper
limbs if desired. as that to be obtained
by the road machine; and the other
benefit so greatly to be desired, plenty
of fresh air to take into the lungs, can
be had by simply opening the windows.

And gems the valley with crystal sheen.
At morn. I know where she rested at
night,
For the roses are gushing with dewy
delight;
Then she mounts again. and round her
filings
A shower of light from her crimson
Till the spirit is drunk with the music
on high,
That silently fills it with ecstasy.
At noon she HES to a cool retreat,
Where towering elms over waters
meet;
She dimples the wave where the green
leaves dip,
AS It smilingly curls like a maideo's
lip,
When her tremulous bosom would aide,
In vain,
From her lover, the hope that she loves
again.
At eve she hangs DER the western sky
Dark clouda for a glorious canopy,
And round the skirts of their depend
fold
She paints a border of purple and gold,
Where the lingering sunbeams love to
stay,
When their god in his glory has passed
away.
