Massachusetts Volunteers which

THE HEAL ETH SHAKE.

One of the needs of this luxurious age seems to be device that will take the place of the natural exercise which those who work on farms get MT. Schilling, merchant of Oakland, Cali fornia, has felt this need and has been moved to supply it. So he has invented what he calls "a health shake" or fin vigorating rattling machine" which is run by electricity, and which is war ranted to furnish as much exercise in ten minutes as a man could get other wise in an hour. His machine is in- tended as a time saver, and is designed for the benefit of very busy men who can't find the opportunity to take a constitutional or ride or drive dur ing the course of the day. The machine consists of a movable rubber covered platform about two feet square which fits into frame somewhat after the style of scales used for weighing grain or other commodities. By means of a dynamo the platform on which the pa- tient stands is made to oscillate rapidly, the intensity of the motion increasing according to the desire of the subject, his wishes in that regard being commu
 nicated to the attendant by signs, for he has no time to talk when all his en- aro,1y iS raodad For n, a int a inino tho par- pendicular. When the machine is at it's top speed a very pleasing electric thrill is imparted. Any one who has ever ridden in "dead-ax'' farm wagon over rough ground will appreciate how diffi- cult a thing it is to stand erect and will, in fact, recall that such & feat is impossible without bending the knees. It is the same with the "health shake" for one has to brace against the quick
 movement in a manner that brings every muscle of the body in play. What MT. Schilling particularly prizes in his machine is the way it stimulates the circulation in the legs, for as a tester and developer of the muscles of the neither limbs the ''health shake" prob- ably has no superior. It also stirs up the liver and other vital organs, restor- i ing them to activity.
 | Very good, as far as it goes Now if
 somebody will invent something that will go through the motions of a good
 healthy calf that objects to being led those who graduate from the health shake" can complete their physical ed ucation.

large number of well equipped boats that left the ships that morning, only these two escaped undamaged, and the loss of the seasons work was ire mediabe. Over fifty men were badly injured and six, one of whom was the unhappy origin of the whole trouble, were killed outright The triumphant aVenger of her slain offspring disap- peared as silently as she had carried on her deadly warfare, as far as could be known unhurt and with an accumu- lated hoard of experience that would, if possible, render her more of a "deyir' to any unsuspecting whalemen who should hereafter have the misfortune to meet with and attack her than she had proved herself to be already De- jected and crippled, the fleet lost no time in getting away from the spot and fleeting north to San Francisco, there to refit for other and more profitable fishing grounds.-Cornhill Magazine.

in the Celestial Empire, published at Shanghai says, they will keep away from China. Foreigners who go to Chi na and stay there for any considerable time are exposed, he says, to a mys- terious and powerful influence which few of them successfully withstand, The Chinese have been often and easily conquered, but the student of history will notice that the victors as time went on became undistingushable from the yanquished. There are no Mon gols, no Manchus in China to-day. Both those races, though as different from and as superior to the aboriginal Chi nese in military and mental vigor as is the average European, none the less were assimilated by their immovable and interchangeable victims. This au- thority prophecies, or at least fears, a similar fate for the new invaders. He has already seen Russian soldiers and laborers turn into alarmingly close du- plicates of Chinamen, even as regards their method of thought.

among brethren of the one Master and Maker. "To be sure" he adds, ''con- gregational worship seems always to involve a certain social element The Catholics have come nearer to a prac- tlcal solution of this question than have Protestants. By the former the social element is well nigh eliminated. For the denominations the problem is lit tie more difficult, because to their minds the social element is never quite absent, But it becomes us all to see to it, whether dlfferencei in race be involved or only difference of station, that we be not found laying more stress upon so- cial inequalities-and they are un- doubtedly real-than upon religious equality which is one of the most real and vital of all facts in the universe"
 Perhaps Professor Pollard's letter will not have the influence it ought to have, but it will have some It is right and sound.

Occasional new models, however are not quite so exacting as are the ma jority, and 1t is one of these that is sketched here. Of gray cashmere, it's skirt was so trimmed with black ribbon as to initiate a series of fiounces. In smaller pattern this was repeated on the bodice portion, where 1t would in case of need serve to disguise defects, though great reliance should not be put upon it. Topping all were yoke and collar of white satin to which very in a curlicue design.
 It is high time to be thinking about that winter dress, and black velvet is a fine material provided that a good quality can be afforded. Make the skirt sweeping and line either with black violet, gray or ivory. Bodice in jacket shape, open to the waist over waistcoat front of satin, the revers of which lie upon the revers of velvet, is conventional, but always elegant and in good taste. The color of the velvet may be changed to royal blue or to a rich brown. In the later case the dressiness of the gown is reduced. The skirt may be broadcloth and for a young matron the result will be almost as elegant and perhaps a little less dowager- like. For the young belle a cloth skirt with satin or taffeta coat is better choice. Such dress is for church and calling, for carriage wear and informal receptions. Remember that the front can be made more or less elaborate, and the cut of the jacket

CITE GENEROUSLY TO-DAY.

To-day the people of this city will again be called on to help the orphans, and they will again respond generously to the call No appeal which is made to the good will and the good heart of the people of New Haven is more cheer fully met than that which is annually made in behalf of the orphans Every body realizes that those who are with out father and mother must be taken up by the Lord, or by deputies of the Lord, and there are many who are will ing and glad to act as the Lords depu- ties in this matter. It is hard enough at the best to be a public orphan, and all that can be done to mitigate the hardness should be done. Let the con- tributions to-day be even more generous than usual, so that the orphans and those who are faithfully and kindly caring for them may be cheered and encouraged.

4 PLEA FOR CHRISTIAN EQUALITY

4 PLEA FOR CHRISTIAN EQUALITY.
 Dr. Edward B. Pollard, a professor in the Columbian University at Washing ton, has good old southern name, and very likely has some good old south ern notions. But he is struggling mo- bly, against a certain notion which afflicts many in the North as we'll as many in the South. He has written a
 letter to a religious paper published in Richmond in which he advocates sac rifces of our social feelings for the re- ligious good of the Africans near our doors.' Professor Pollard addresses himself especially to the Baptists, in- asmuch as the convention of the Bap- tist Young Peoples Union, to be held in Richmond next summer will furn- ish "an excellent opportunity to show the world that we southerners are not afraid of the negro; that all the dele gates who come from coIored churches of the North-there are no Colored Baptist Young Peoples Union Societies in the South, believe-will be well comed and treated with all the hospi- tality that a broad-minded Christian courtesy would dictate" Professor Pollard recognizes that the objection to the departure recommended by him
 is the old one of social equality" but he questions the propriety, as well as the charity, of this color distinction

A new series of New Zealand stamps has been issued, and they are already eagerly sought for by collectors. It may have contributed to this that an English syndicate had offered the gov ernment to take a large quantity of them, but with the condition that the postofflce should promise not to sell the new stamps In New Zealand before the expiration of three months, and to sell no stamps during the same time to any other foreign concern. The proposition was declined. The advertising thus given by the London concern to the new issue has caused an enormous de- mand for the stamps in the colony from the first day of their issue.

The French minister of war has or dered bicycles to be supplied to two legions of the gendarmie, who will use them in ordinary service. They have been forbidden to use them hitherto because it was feared that some mem- bers of the force would go to greater expense than they could afford in sup plying themselves. In 1897 a legion stationed in the neighborhood of Paris used some bicycles with satisfactory results; but nothing further was done in the matter until the present order was issued

A New Princess Design.

Dressmakers are still scheming to the end that women generally shall adopt princess dresses. Occasionally the temptation spells ruin to some un- happy creature whose figure is unsuit- ed to the cut Then theI Idressmaker's crusade experiences a setback, for noth- ing is more unbecoming than a prin- cess gown that does not fit a shapely Wearer nicely. Success or failure is really more matter of the woman in- side, than the dress itself, provided, that is, that the dress at least fits

Attention was recently called to the proposed use of glass brick in building. It is now said that the government of Switzerland has approved the use of glass for making weights to be em- ployed with balance scales. A pecu- liarIy tough kind of glass is to be se- lected for this purpose. From Eng land comes the suggestion that glass would be better and more lasting ma terial than stone for making monu- ments which are exposed to the wear ing action of the weather.
