Dictates of Fashion.

The small mutf looks absolutely an
tiquated in these days of giant hand
warmers.
Glace kid gloves are superseding tho
suede ones, as they have been found 10
be more durable.
\ sleeve that terminates at the wrist
bone marks the gown to which it be-
longs as being a relic of last season,
while a plain or low collar is equally
reliable as an indication of antiquity.
Damp shoes should be cleaned and
rubbed with vascline as soon as they are
removed. Then they should be filled
with oats and set aside. In IL hours
the oats will have absorbed the damp
ness and the leather will be as soft as
when new.
The art of bow-tying is one that every
woman of limited means should acquire,
if she wishes to be well dressed. The
bow for the hair and the bow for the
slipper, the knot at the waist and the
one at the throat, all have peculiar
twists of their own.--Chicago Record.

The fashionable woman now cares
for her feet as carefully as for her
hands, and a footboX is as necessary to
her as manicure set. The box is Il
goodsiz'd one, and contains everything
required for the welfare of both shoes
and feet. For the former there are vari-
Gus kinds of dressing fluids for taking
stains out of satin, brushes for remov-
ing dust. spools of silk and waXed shoe
thread. a cobbler's needle, thimble and
scissors, quantities of laces of all col
Crs and assorted buttons; while for the
pedal eNtremities themselves there are
provided instruments for amateur sur

ursments caused by long use of shoes

Astronomical Discoveries.

That the best attachments are not the
result Of chance was eXemplitied in the
discovery of the planet Neptune, the
fiftieth anniversary of which event was
recently celebrated in France. Tele
scopes had long swept the sky without
discovering this shy outer planet; but
when astronomers noticed how Uranns
FASTENED in one part of its orbit and
moved with less rapidiay in another
they knew there must be an attracting
body that held him in check. Lever
rier, therefore, after minute calcula-
tons, wrote to the astronomer of the
Berlin observatory, requesting him to
point his telescope to particular spot
in the sky on an evening indicated, and
said: You will see a planet which
have not seen, and which no human eye
has ever seen, but which nevertheless
must be on the spot" No one would
venture to call its discovery that night
an act of chance.-Youth's Companion

He Was Too Good to Stand.
