New Silk Waists,

The plain changeable silk waists
worn with the white linen collars have
been in existence long enough to be-
come out of date, but the figured taf-
fetas have still a stronghold on life.
There are so many patterns and color
ings to choose from in these fancy silks
that it is easy to have a waist quite diff
ferent from anybody else's if only time
be taken to choose the material. In
shaded blue, with an allover design of
black, in pink or in tan, there are many
exquisite patterns. AS the silk itself
rs cheap, and, now that sleeves are col
lapsing, less material is needed, it is
quite possible to have smart waist for
little money. There is no need of any
trimming, and so there is still another
chance to save money, but when econo-
my need not be considered yokes and
revers of velvet, satin or lace can be
added and more dressy effect secured.
Stripes, plaids and checks all are pop
ular, and for those who prefer all black
eeffcts, there are charming figured
black designs, which, when worn with
colored stock, look exceedingly well.
Girdles of different widths and of black
liberty satin add greatly to the beauty
of the plaid striped and checked silk
waists, and the newest fad is to fasten
these same girdles little to one side
with two, three or four rhincstones.-

The University of Michigan has just
received from the duke OF Loubat one
of his 200 reproductions of the Pre-
Columbian Mexican book, "The Vatican
Manuscript No. 3773." This codeX was
placed in the Vatican about 800 years
ago, and is one of the few that escaped
destruction at the hands of the in
vaders. The present copy made by the
duke is in exact fac-simile, "even to
initiating the ancient deerskin and the
modern covers, inlaid with precious
stones" In size when folded it is eight
by seven inches, and about two inches
thick, but when opened, or extended,
is about 80 feet long. 1t is made of nine
pieces of deerslsin so folded as to form

painted. The codeX is accompanied by
three explanatory treatises in English,

Mrs. Samuel Stamm, of Logantown,
bore her thirty.four years of suffering
with courage and fortitude. Her trouble
was rheumatism in the knee. In conse.
que nee her limb had become 80 stiff that
she could hardly walk. Mr.. Stamm is a
we'll TO do merchant, and had spared no
pains or expense to relieve her, but with
little success, until one night when it
grew SO painful that she could hardly
endure it, he persuaded her to try Cham.
berlain's Pain Balm. The effect was
magical. The first application relieved
the pain, and its continued use has re.
moved all stiffness and given her the free
use of her limb once more. Ifyou have

Jews as Soldiers.

Anewbookpublished in Germany con-
tends that the Jew is more of q soldier
than he gets credit for. In the Franco
German war 4,492 Jews were in the Ger
man army and s27 earned the iron cross,
a decoration bestowed for bravery in
the field. Fifteen Jewish officers served
under wellington at Waterloo, and the
duke paid them a special compliment
when Jewish emancipation was pro-
posed in parliament. The book states
that 1887 Jews enlisted in the United
States army during the civil war, while
among its higher commanders were
nine generals and 10 colonies who were
Jews.-Chicago Chronicle.

THE LITTLE POSTAL GARD.
How and Where They Are Made and
Printed.

In 1872 congress passed an act au-
thorizing the postmaster-general to is
sue postal cards and the first in the
United States were on sale in May, 1873.
Postal cards are manufactured by pri-
vate firms or corporations. The gov
ernment invites bids and awards the
contract for their manufacture at stated
intervals.
The postal card "sheets" are about 30
by % inches in size and are exactly fit
ted to the plates from which the cards
are printed, each plate covering 10 cards
-four in width and ten in length.
The printing is done by experienced
workmen and as the sheets pass into
the presses the number of cards is ac-
curately recorded by registers. To pre-
vent any tampering the registers are Sc
curely locked every night.
After the sheets are printed they are
put aside until thoroughly dry. They
are then passed through a machine
called tho Sitter" which cuts them
into strips of ten cards each and neat
ly trims the edge of the outside strip.
These strips are then passed transverse
ly through another machine known as
the "cross-cutter," which cuts the
strips into single cards and they drop
into rotary hopper containing ten
compartments.
The moment each compartment has
received rs cards the hopper revolves
and throws them out upon table. EN-
pioyes, usually girls, then take the
cards and bind the perfect ones in
packs and after carefully recounting
them put them in card boxes contain
ing 20 packs each and they are ready
for shipment.
More than 3Oo,ooO,OOO postal cards are
used annually in the United States and
it requires no less than 72O tons of pa
per to make them.-Chicago News.

Don't judge man by the clothes he
wears; God made one and the tailor the
other. Don't judge man by his family.
Don't judge a man by his failures in life,
for many man fails because he is too
honest to succeed. Don't judge a man
by the house he lives in, for the
lizard and rat often inhabit the grandest
structure. When man dies, they who
survive him ask what property he has
left behind; the angel who bends over
the dying man asks what good deeds he
has sent before him.

Talked and Adjourned.

The Municipal Reform convention
met as per call, in the council cham.
bers Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock and
after taking double rap at the Re.
publican city ticket, adjourned with
out recommending anybody in partic-
ular. They advised the temperance
people, however, to choose carefully
from the nominations that had
already been made, and to avoid
tainting themselves by voting for any
body with bad reputation.
Recognizing the fact that the Re-
publican city ticket is strictly an A.
A. Richards enterprise and projected
solely for the furtheranCe of his
chances to receive the pnstoflice ap-
pOintment, they resolved that we
"are opposed to party politics and
''partisanship in municipal matters.
"and that nominations for city offices
SHOULD net be made to secure the
lends of one politician or political
"party."
1t was deemed to be inexDedient
to put a ticket in the field at this
time,. hence the resOl- ton advising
temperance people to choose care
fully Of the nominations already
made.
The convention resolved in favor Of
the repeal of the malt ordinance and
declared that all places detrimental
to the morals and welfare Of the city
should be closed.
Chairman Curtis took under consid.
Grafton the appointment OF commit
tee Of five men from the convention,
to cooperate with the ministerial
association in the organization of a
Civic Federation, or a municipal re.
form league. The committee has not
yet been announced. The Civic Fed.
Grafton is to be organized for the pur.
pose of discussing public questions
concerning city government, and its
purpose is to overcome the overwhelm-
ing anti-temperance sentiment in the
city and create sentiment that will
demand the enforcement of the law
