told that everyone has the same thing
they wish they'd chosen something
else.
Surah is silk that is going to be
used good deal this summer, but that
will not be in danger of too great popu-
larity In many instances, too it will
be made I'D with enough of dressiness
to avoid any chance of commences.
This picture here shows an example of
that sort. Its original was in dotted
rose, pink surah, the panel and band
ing being white Brussels lace. Pink
satin supplied collar and belt. Though
freely trimmed. the gown was of the
comparatively simple arrangement that
is especially suited to summer, when
anything highly elaborate conveys to
the observer the impression that the
wearer Is uncomfortably warm The
next moment the observer begins to
think that she's warm, herself, so it's
worth some pains to avoid giving that
infectious first impression.
Some very dainty adorable corsets
are on the market. They are made Of
stunning plaid or prettiy striped and
figured bingham. Most women wear
for summer outing and shirt waist use
corset less heavy and expensive than
that the formality Of winter dress re-
quires. These dainty bingham corsets
will just fill the bill. They will wear
better than the white summer sort we
have had to be satisfied with, and at
the same time are light enough not to
show through wash goods in the ugly
way that the black corset does Many
of these corsets are fastened with elias
tic tape. Women need more freedom,
in the summer than they allow them
selves in winter, and elastic laclngs give
this in just the right degree.

If you are toling up a weary hill,
Bearing a load beyond your strength to
bear,
Strainng each nerve untiringy, and still
Stumbling and losing footho.d here and
there;
And each one passing by would do so much
AS give one upward lift and go their way,
Would not the slight, reiterated touch
OF help and kindness tighten all the day!
There Is no little and there is no much;
We weigh and measure and define in vain
A look, Il word, a light, responsive touch
Can be the minister of joy to pain.
A man can die of hunger walled in gold,
crlmb may quicken hope to stronger
breath,
And every day we give or we withhold
Some little thing that tells for life or
death.

IIGAIN THE ID UST.

The politicians of New Haven are
busy throwing dust into the eyes of the
people but that dust Is nothing to the
dust which is blowing from the streets
into the eyes, the noses, the mouths and
the houses of the people. 1t was poor
policy and poor economy that prevented
ling. What an awful nuisance the
sharp and nasty dust is! How it gets
into everybody and everything! What
foe to comfort and what foe to
health 1t actually kills some, and sick
ems many. 1t is full of dirty and deadly
germs, which we must breathe When
ever we take our walks or rides abroad
or when we open our windows. Verify
the people of New Haven are long-suf-
fering and understanding. Why
doesn't the Chamber of Commerce, the
Historical Society, the Graduates club
or something tackle this dust nuisance
and do New Haven a good turn? Aren't
there public spirit and vim enough left
in the town to impress our masters at
the City Hall with the idea that they
shouldn't kill us with their new char
ter fandangoes? Wouldn't it be better
to transfer some money rather than
transfer good men and women to the
graveyard? And couldn't the Corpora
ton Counsel concoct an opinion that
would justify laying the gritty and the
vile dust from which discomfort, dam
age and disease spring?

The Boston Transcript tells story of
Boston woman, member of the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union
who was recently travelling to the Pa
cific coast over the Northern Pacific
railroad. Now North Dakota is a rigid
prohibition State, and the dining cars
have this notice posted up in them: mo
Intoxicating liquors will be served while
the train is passing through the State
of North Dakota. The train had been
rolling along through that interminable
State long time, when the Boston wo-
man who is interested in temperance
came into the dining car for her dinner
Casting her eye out of the car window
upon somewhat changed landscape she
eaid to the waiter, with purely geo.
graphical interest: "Are we still in
North Dakota?" mo, ma'am," said he
alertly and with hospitable grin;
s'what'll you take to drink, ma'am?"

TO commemorate the discovery of the
electric pile by Volta, celebration will
be held in May at his native town, Co
mo, Italy. 1t will include an electrical
exhibition, which will open on May H.
at which will be displayed electrical ap-
paratus and machinery from many
quarters of the world. A congress of
electricians and telegraphers will be
held in connection with the celebration,
while simultaneously with the electrical
exhibition will be display of the work
of the italian silk industries. The ex-
hibition buildings are pleasantly stu
ated on the shore of the lake, and the
most recent improvements in electric
launches and boats will be one Of the
prominent features. The city of Como
has carefully preserved a large number
of pieces of apparatus and other memo
rails of Volta, and in the city museum
may be seen his first electric pile, an
electric lamp of his invention and other
instruments, together with a large num-
Der of his manuscripts and drawings.

March is set at 1892 100000. The excess
war expenditures over the ordinary
peace footing last month was about ST.
100000, aside from the $3,000OOO granted

There are at least two sides to every
question. Here comes the Medical and
Surgical Journal of Boston and says
that "beyond the possibility of doubt"

ed our military posts of one-third of the
cases of alcoholism that previously
tended to injure the individual soldier,
to deprive the government Of service
due, and to create infractions of disci-

the years 1S89-91, inclusive, the admis-
eions to hospitals for alcoholism ranged
between 49, so and 1895 per 1000 at posts
provided with canteens, while at posts
without them these admissions ran from
547S to $3.50 per 1000. Before Willet's
Point had a canteen its rate of alcohol
ism was 272.97, the highest in the army.
In 1890, with a canteen, this fell to 1880
and 7046 the next year. AT Fort Nc

Arab carriers bear great loads

During the month of Ramadan,
the Koran. forbids the taking of
food between sunrise and sunset,
and this law is snid to be held sac
red and rarely violated. Not only
do these porters continue their ar
duous physical exertion during the
twelve laboring hours of the day
without taking any food during
that period, but the French inspec-
tors who are in charge of the gangs
told our informant that they could
work better during the month of
the fast than any other time of the
year, because their energy was not
needed for digestion. At eventide,
these Arabs have moderate meal

large proportions Of butter (t is
