Dangers of the VeriscOpe.

"Livipg pictures' are exhi bited very
generally throughout the country, and
here are some of the names by which
they are designated: The photograph,
cinematograph, amin atoscOpe, animate
gragb, projectoscOpe, lnematoscope,
vitascope, veriscope, viveoroscope,
ravOscOpe. magnOscOpe, cinagrapbO-
scope ana living photographs. By
whatever name known they present
one of the most dangerous fire haz ards
introduced of late years, says the Spec
tator, and as the exhibitions are usual
ly given n some public hall, in itse
extra hazardous, the danger of such
exhibition cannot be Overestimated.
The destruct on Of the Charity Bazaar
in Paris and the loss of 124 lives was
due to cine matCgraph exhibition.
Since then there have been so many
other fires in that city from the same
cause that the authorities have pre-
cribed stringent regulations for such
exhibitions. How the thing works is
thus described by an expert operator
| Of living photographs:
Just before passing the last picture
of rather long series through the
cir ematograph, the limelight, for
some reason, became accidentally ex.
tinguished. 1t was the work of a mo-
ment, of course, to press match
| against UHC SUlll lDCduue5SGuG LINE duC
so kindle the gas lantern, after which
| l placed that match carefully in the
tray of the lsrtern. Underneath tbs
table on which the instrument stood
was a pile consisting OF sufficient eel
lulod film to reach to thu top of St
Paul's Cathedral and down again, for
as everybody knows who has handled
| these things, thy never will go intt
the basket that the lanterDist place:
for their reception. Suppose that, a.
might easily have happened in the al
most excusable furry of the moment
that match had been dropped on the
floor. In an instant that heap of film
would have been in a Kissing blaze o
frigh fully hot flame, high enough t.
reach the ceiling and broad enough t.
| lick the wall and fire anything milan
mable wi hin a yard or two.

Professor KONG, of Contingent. in
an article on this subject in the Central
blatt fur Chirurgie, says that at one
time, while he was practicing IN 7dicine
in Hanau. che suddenly discovered that
bis bedroom was thickly inhabited by
bugs. A friend assured him that he
could easily get rid of the pests, and
proceeded to fumigate the apartment
with corrosive sublimate. The success
of this measure was most gratifying,
and when the room was opened the
dead bodies of various kinds of insects
were seen strewn about the floor. This
incident led the writer to hope that
the same means would be effectual in
destroying the infectious elements of
conta gious diseases, and trial in pri-
vate houses after scarlet fever or
measles, and in hospitals after cry
sipelas or pysemia, have
NEST satisfactory results. Since
adopting this method he has never
seen a second case of contagious dis
ease which could be attributed to in
f 0ction remaining in the room in which
the patient had bsen confined. The
mode of procedure is very simple.
Innate are put on plate over a CHI afing
dish, and then the windows and doors
of the room are closed. AT the eXpira-
tion of three or four hours the windows
sre opened, and the apartment is
thoroughly aired. The person enter
ing the room should take the precau-
ton to hold q sponge or a cloth over
the mouth and nose in order not to in
hale the vapor. The following day
the windows are again closed, and
some sulphur is burned in order to
neutralize any of the mercurial fumes
which may linger a bout the furniture
and other articles. The room is to be
again aired and cleaned, and will then
be ready for Occupancy

COMFORT IN CORSETS.
Hints Which the Average Woman Will
Find Useful and Timely.

Find Useful and Timely.
"Unless a figure is largely out of pro-
portion there is no real necessity in
his day of having corsets made to Or
der" writes Mary Katharine Howard
in the September Woman's Home Com
panion. But it is quite necessary tn at
: corset should be lit to figure as care
fully as glove or boot Is fitted. One
make of corset may fit you perfectly in
the bust, but the waist may be too
short or too long, or thea hips too snug
or loose. Fitting is done at all first
class houses free of charge, and it is
time we'll spent in having your corset
properly fitted.
Few women, having secured the
right kind of corset, know how to lace
it. There should be two lacing strings
silk being better THAI any other
one reaching from the top to the waist
inc, and one from the waist-liue to the
bottom edge of the corset. The cor
set can then be laced comfortably at
the waist as closely or as tightly as
one wishes without compre sing the
bust and forcing the FLESH at the back
over the top of the corset. Then, too,
the corset can be adjusted about the
bps and over the abdomen without
discomfort and ungainly lines, as is
the case when only one lacing is used.
ga woman who dresses a great deal,
and always up to the occasion, really
needs a variety of corsets. A decOllete
grown calls for low-cut corset that
conforms to the shape of tie bodice,
while tsilormade costume requires
corset high above the bust and long on
the abdomen. The negligee robe de
chambre has d corset that is merely a
bust-support. The bicycle corset is
usually veutila; ed affair made quite
short from the waist down, aud has
fewer bNnes than any other. The corset
of tire Empire grown is little more
than a belt showing little or no bust
curve. And so sit goes, making the
wearing of corsets a thing of comfort
if properly fitted
1.-The tendency among women to take
up physical culture and athletics has
not driven out cOrsets, bat has done
much toward improving them. Modern
times have seen the anatomy of the hui
man figure so carefully studied that
com tort, and some physicians say of
coed he alth.
ITO be laced, in the general accepta-
ton OF the term. is now considered the
height Of vule arity. 1t is quite natur-
bust or hips, but it need not be fairly
strangled into an hour-glass shape,
What is wanted in a corset is plenty of
room at the bust and on the hips, with
no pressure on the ribs to Interfere
with breathing. Few of US are Coz
structed on the lines of the ideal figure,
so tha at much of tn , beauty OF our form
depends upon a good fitting corset"

BUDDING MEN AND WOMEN.
The Period When Boys and Girls Pine for
Larger Liberty.

The Period When Boys and Girls Pine fo
| Larger Liberty.
Florence Hull Winterburn, writing
on THE Passing of Childhood" in the
September WOman's Home Companion
says:
!'Baby learns that he can walk, that
he can reach things, that he can open
and close doors, that he can select
from many articles before him the
particu: ar one he wants: and so soon as
he is conscious of his alb .lity to act for
| himself he does it.
| "But birthdays come and go, and
John is thirteen, and alive in every
nerve and fib-r, with the full-pulsed
life of the American temperament: he
is ambitious, and seeks ideals and
models from the great world outside
the walls of home, and he talks eX-
citedly of what other boys do, and
| finds precedent for the individual lib
erty he is beginning to pant and chafe
| after Mary, with the first luster OF
| life yet fresh on her brow, has shed in
| fantile docility like garment. and has
haunting visions OF the joys of indie
pendence. 1t all seems sudden to the
parent and it is not quite pleasant.
There is pretty sentiment in favor OF
prolonging babyhood, and the world is
brutal and ugly, and innocence is pre-
cious. Besides, the instant our hedg-
lings are out of our sight untold
anxieties begin for US. We are inclin-
ed to put off the evil day.
"This is the way a sentiment can
make us selfish, and fears for the future
make US unjust. We have no right to
choose What is easy for ourselves, how
ever, rather than what is best for our
children. It is the growing manhood
and womanhood in them that begins to
| assert itself and claim recognition.
The wings meant for wide flight ere
long are rapidly unfolding, and the
courage soon to be essential is mani
testing itself in the feeling of pride
and dignity which makes our boy long
to go and come as he pleases, and our
girl to make her own engagements and
decide upon her own affairs. This looks
alarming, but, after all, it is no great
matter, for what the children really
crave now is liberty to exercise their
own Judgment. 1t would be
most injudicious to draw The lines
Closer when youthful high spirits begin
to pull upon them. Liberty is to be
retarded only for year or so at the
most, and for every restraint imposed
there will be corresponding excess.
1t is well known that some of the wild
est youths, the friskiest young women,
were kept down to strict regimen as
long as parental oversight lasted. They
came to regard restraint, even when
kindly meant, as an evil, to like their
own way just for its own sake: and the
esult is anything but pleasant when
young persons with unframed wills
and Judgment are turned loose upon
the community. If they are not wilful
they are weak: and accustomed to yield
to stronger minds, they become the
prey of INSCRIPTIONS leaders"
