Improving the Lawyers.
Leslie's Weekly.


1t might be set down as general prop
osition without exciting popular riot that
anything calculated to Improve the lawyers
of this country will be in the direction or
a public benefit. Several years ago an artl-
Gle appeared in this paper calling attention
to the crude and disorganized regulations
under which young men We're authorized 10
take charge of the lives, money and inter
ests of their fellow-beings. In one state
the only condition of admission was That
the candidate should have a good moral
character; in another few months OF
study few hours day, would enable the
aspirant to join the bar. In scarcely any
State was there a general system, ana
person who had been turned down In one
county might go over into the next circuit,
get admitted, and return to the place where
he had been rejected and be accepted on
the face OF his admission In the other place.
The American Bar Association took the
matter up very earnestly, and the legal
schools and colleges of the country were
made active factors in the movement for
q system and q higher standard.
1t has thus happened that since the APP
pearance OF our article ten States have
passed laws placing the examination of
candidates in the hands Of a board of eX-
aminers appointed and controlled by the
states highest court Of appeals. In most of
these States the length of reading or OF
study whether in a law college or IN a
private office mas been increased TO three
years and in none of them is Il less than
two. The movement has prospered far be-

The ceremony commenced by the celebra-

the company marched professionally to the
castle preceded by two flags, and the wom-
ryine the closed vessel containing Kosci-
usko's heart on a stretcher. Peasants nab
tied in the national Polish dress were also
a conspicuous feature in the cortege. The
vessel containing the heart having peen
placed reverently inside the mausoleum,
speeches were delivered in Polish by seven
members of the committee, and one IN
French by Prof. Wenceslas Gastonet
Among the other speaker were M. BoJko,
a representative of the Order of Peasants
in the Diet of Galcia and the Austrian
Reichsrath, who wore the national dress
and another member of the Austrian Cham

The New York Times gives a good idea
in the following
young ladies' would you be both artistic
and fashionable? Then have your pictures
taken in large hats This is the latest, pos
itively the very latest and it is as fetching
as 1t can be. 1t is sure to be a popular idea,
for what young woman would not favor any
legitimate plan that makes her look pretty?

Dame Rumor has it that it is to q new
woman that the development of the picture

Hughes, q young American who went to
London Il year or two ago with the idea
that she would find there a better field for
q new idea she had than the United States
offered. That idea was to pay especial at
tention to posing to make every sitter APP

and fortune smiled on Miss Hughes at once.

Fad for bInking Gowns.

An Eastern paper discusses with much
solemnity the new fad that young women
in that part of the country have for MAX
ing their own gowns. The fad has prevailed
in Indianapolis for many years There are
more young women who can make their
own garments than there are who cannot.
1t is not an unusual thing for several of
the girls in town, who have the largest al
lowanees. to buy handsome materials and
sit down and make their own gowns. In one
of the plays given by the Dramatic Club,
the scenes called for several beautiful
gowns. One of the girls in the play did not
want to put so much money in theatre
cal wardrobe, and so she bought fine ma
terials and made her own gowns, and they
were very much admired. During the sum
mer dozens of rich girls have bought one
handsome shirt waist o. taken the pattern
from 1t and made a ..alf dozen or more
themselves. 1t is no new trick for the
women, married and single, to go to the
openings and garment displays MADE at the
hotels and get all the newest ideas and go
home and copy them. Quite as many work
out their own ideas as to take them TO
the modiste and try to explain to her. The
society girls talents are not confined TO
dressmaking. There are many girls who
relieve their mothers of the housekeeping
cares and do all of the marketing and most
of the shopping The Eastern papers may
pride themselves their talented rich
women, but the Hoosier girl can match her
every time.

another novelty is the figure OF the
shield and spear. The men, armed with gay
Shields of pasteboard, adorned with wreaths
of roses, try in vain 10 parry the attacks
of lovely Amazons brandishing long spears
of silver and gold. Not until the attacking
party has touched her victim with the
spear point can she secure a partner In

"A musical figure will have as favors a
much decorated toy banjo that is really
capable to playing tune for the lady and
a 'milleton,' a sort of French flute, for the
man. Another pretty favor is drum ma

clustered a number of boutonnieres of pa

"A tiny lantern of transparent material
in the national colors is another novelty
for the german. Into each a little candle

very long. The little lights bobbing about

How Aluminium Is Made.
OF Reviews.

The oxide, which is obtained from baux-
lite Grarried by the company in Georgia, is
fused with cryolite in pots of boiler iron
lined with carbon. An electric current is
passed through these long series of pets,
and the result is precisely similar to what
1t was when Hall first sent the seVen-cell
Grove battery current through his two-inch
crucible in Oberlin--the melted aluminium
collects on the carbon negative electrode,
and, as already stated, the quantity thus
collected daily is measured in tons. Con-
tinually. night and day without cessation,
this operation proceeds. The raw material
is fed in as required; the product is re-
moved and the carbon renewed. The waste
of the process is said TO be so slight as
hardly 10 be an element of calculation.
Then comes the casting into ingots and
bars, the rolling into sheets and the draw
ing into rods and wire.
