The boon of emancipation from
slavery is said to be responsible for the
great increase in tubercular diseases
and insanity among the negroes of the
southern states. While they lived in
slavery the negroes were compelled to
live sober and regular lives, but with
freedom their natural impulse to ex-
cesses asserted itself and they plunged
without restraint into vicious and riot
GUS habits. They have consequently
developed highly nervous consump-
tive and alcoholic diathesis, which
makes them easily susceptible to dis
eases from which formerly they were
free. They are for the most part I'M
able to withstand exciting causes, and
insanity is greatly on the increase
among them. Mortality returns show
that the rate of death from tuberculosis
among southern negroes is three times
as high as that among the whites

ALL KINDS OF SHIRT WAISTS.
The Latest Is Like the summer Gar
rIent Worn by Men.

| The shirt waist of the present day is a
striking example OF what fashion can
| do in the way of furnishing variety in
| even comparatively small field for
| operation. All the early rumors to the
effect that this serviceable article Of
| dress was to be relegated to the list
of questionable things certainly had
no foundation, if the hundreds of waists
of every sort and condition which fill
every available space in the shops and
appear on every other woman you meet.
are conclusive evidence Of popularity.
The very latest and simplest shirt
, waist of cotton, madras. zephyr or per
Gale, is made almost like the summer
shirt worn by men, with plat in front,
pointed yoke in the back and very little
fullness in the sleeves at the cuff, which
is plain, and tastens with link buttons
The fashionable stock of black or
some light color, or the high turnover
linen collars, are worn with this, and
also with silk, batiste and every other
kind of waist which can be classed
with the shirt variety.
The genuine tailor-made shirt waist
is generally considered the best style,
for something in the cut, fit and finish
of it promptly stamps it as not in the
class OF ready-made shirts. Yet the
latter have improved wonderfully in all
points which go to make them sue
cess. The fullness in front OF the waist
made to order is arranged more on the
Shn1Jlnpr aud il is tirtnH ,.l1SaI,r
under the arm, both of which points
help to make it more becoming to the
figure. Cotton waists of bingham in
stripes and decided plaids of rather
vivid colors are prominent in the dis
play, with many others of ribbed linen
and French batiste, striped with vari-
Gus colors and patterned over with rose
buds,
All the varieties of linen batiste are
used for shirt waists, some of the pref
test being those with embroidered
bodies and plain batiste sleeves. The
plain batiste bodice is usually orna-
mented with crosswise tucks, forming
yoke, or in groups over Che entire
waist, with narrow lace frills on the
edge of one tuck in each group.
Powered organdie waists with col
ored silk or dainty Innings are very
pretty, and corset covers in pale blue,
pink and green can be purchased all
ready to wear under any of these thin
waists. White dimity shirt waists are
to be much worn, and they have a small
bishop sleeve and turned-oyer cuffs.
The prettiest white waists are made of
wash silk or Liberty satin, with two
rows of narrow lace insertion down
either side of the box plait and a group
of tiny tucks between.-Philade!ph

In making cake that requires the
whites Ct eggs only one is sometimes at
loss what to do with the yolks. A
good housekceper says that she uses
them TO beat up and dip bread into
which is to be fried for the children's
lunch. Mayonnaise dressing is anoth-
err article that takes yolks of eggs, and
very good custard or pudding may be
made from the yolks alone. One woman
beats the yolk of one egg and very
slowly stirs it into the milk that is to
be heated for coffee. They NAV be used
with ham or other meats to make ONE
iette, or to make gravies richer. A vel
low cake may be made of yollis, and n
very excellent frosting is made from
them. Golden custard with bits of left
over cake is delicious as dessert. Rice
made into balls and dipped in yolk of
eggs is very relishabe.-N. Y. Ledger.

Is it to be wondered at that the COM
mon people of India are weak and un-
healthy? Accounts say that in sea-
sons when it is peculiarly scarce they
drink the very water they have been
bathing in; and that they inherit the
practice from generations of fore
fathers. In many country districts
there are 500 of them to the square
mile-all living on what little rice they
can produce OH their miniature farms.
Little wonder that they die by thou
sands, even when famine is not pres
ent; that all the minor diseases. as well
as King Cholera, find them good feed

According to statistics prepared by
the Engineering and Mining journal,
the output of bituminous coal in the
United States during 1896 reached
total of 141,170,099 short tons 1900
pounds, showing a gain over 1875 of
4,371, 1852 tons. On the other hand there
was a decrease of 6,7S2, O57 short tons
in the anthracite production. The to-
tai coal production was, therefore. 193,-
351,02T short tons, and the total de-
crease, as compared with 1895, was
2,410,3o5 tons. The production of
coke showed a gain of 1926 tons,
chiefly due to the activity of the iron
and steel trades in the earlier part of the
year.
