Colors That Reign.

Vallow i.a all it's glory, in iss varied tones and eanlitoaes, is to rage in dress and millinery this winter. Red the shade of the traditional British coat heads the list of fashionable colors in England just now. Gzarina blue has broken out all oveE France, rivaling russian gray in general fayor-the soft, becoming, refined gray in cloth and vel vet that the young empress seemed to favor next to blue and cream white dur ing her short. brilliant stay in Paris. Vivid green is beloved by the Emerald Islanders and popular this year the world over. All these various dyes have aheir admirers and electors, and technio- al journals announce tho color chiefly favored by some particular country or noted parsonage, and therefore VIC are now in the first harmless stages of vel low fever. end no ono is disposed to ob- joot to the epidemic.

Aneisentsn Handkerchief.

So much danger exists from oontagion in the handling of infected clothing that for some time past an effort has been made te introduce handkerchiefs of pa per and fiber. A substance composed of shredded fber might be put into tho form of papeT pulp and run cut into sheets, which would be soft, pliable, absorbent and inexpensive. Paper hand kerohiefs might be made almost as cheap as toilet paper and would be found a most welcome addition to tho equipment of invalidB Immediately upon being used they could be burned or otherwise destroyed, thereby avoiding the trans mission of disease germs. Laundresses and others have frequently been inoeu- lated with the bacilli of various mala- dies by contact in the washtub. A scratch or any irritated spot on the skin may become lodging place for such organisms For this and other reasons the paper handkerchief is strongly com mended. If. in,addition to the absorbent and inexpensive qualities, the pulp could be impregnated wi5h some inodorous and effcaoious antiseptio, the value of this new departure would hc largely increas- cd. --Nev York Ledger.

ReciprOclty.

College fraternalism recently found another pleasant illustration at Oberlin, o. When Oberlin, which was tho first college to open it's doors to women on an equal footing with men, was just start ing in its work, in 1898, Mary Lyon was teacher in Miss Grants school in Ipswich, Mass. The teachers of this school, with their pupils, immediately sent $450 to Oberlin to help 1t in it's work. Of this sum Mary Lyon herself gave SI5O. Four years later she founded Mount Holyoke seminary. This fall the women teachers at Oberlin gathered a contribution of S450 for Mount Hol- yoke college and sent is as Thanksgiv- ing recognition by the Oberlin of to- day of the noble work done by Mary Lyon for the higher education of women
