I Might Have Married Dewey.

A lady in chair at ease,
A bright June rose was smelling.
He said, Come, take sleighride,
please
She company was telling,
Il might have married Dewey
He took me home from spelling school,"
The matron spoke serenely,
Then added in a manner cool,
With accent truly queenly,
II might have married Dewey"
I'VE went skating one cold night"
Ch med one, ION Onion River.
He drew his arms around me tight,
When / began to shiyer;
1 might have married Dewey"
HE kissed me once across the gate,
Just as the dawn was showing"
A spinster sighed, and saio "'Tis late;
My dear, l must be going.
I might have married Dewey"
From hillside coastings, country dance,
Intelligence keeps coming,
There's many a woman's retroglance,
AS she breaks out a humming,
81 might have married Dewey:

mousseline brilliante, the open fronts
bordered with tiny ruches of the NOUS
seline. On a fashionable Vieux rose
costume, the fronts of the open waist
were covered with lovely appliques
of English point laid over rose-colored
silk muslin. There was a long cravat
of lace edged net tied in front, and the
sleeves alternated with insertion bands
and plisses of mousseline brilliante.

pretty demi-dress gowns, hyacinths

Lace was never more popular than
it is to-day Formerly it supplied a
trimming only; now it also forms
gowns, jackets, overdresses, polonaises,
waists and gowns entire, which consti-
tute the most beautiful and costly of
fashionable robes; and even if silk
gown is trimmed with narrow rows of
of fancy lace. There is now hardly
any part of the gown where lace is
considered out Of place. Guipure is
perhaps the best suited of all laces :or
decorating dressy day gowns, and the
favorite method Of employing it as an
accessory is in the use of detached
sprays of guipure or other designs of
lace, applying the special devices
whenever the presence of garniture is
suitable. But it is we'll to note that
excess of decoration of this description
must be avoided or the dainty effect
is spoiled.

white lace, a bertha of the same lace

One serious and at the same time IN
suspected source of fog in photography
is often due to the fact that the black
ing has slightly worn off the lens
mount and there is reflection which
results III a loss Of brilliancy in the
negative. Constant use and endless
cleaning of the lens in time wear the
backing off, and this should be attend
ed to and all metal parts kept well
BACKED. Where lenses are mounted in
aluminium still more care is necessary
in this respect, as, wherever in such
cases the backing wears off, white light
instead of yellow light is reflected into
the lens.
Sometimes diaphragms of the iris
pattern are greatly at fault in this re.
speCt. By reason of its construction the
leaves or vanes i'll this diaphragm are in
constant friction while being set, and
thus become polished and reflective, for
which reason some photographers avoid

his sermon the morning before. Mr.

GERMAN PUBLIC BATHS.

and Utility.

Germans have more economical and
more practical ideas concerning public
baths than other European cities. Their
typical establishments of the kind as
now built are simple one story build
ings \ model shower bath exhibited
i'll Berlin Il year ago employs sprays
from all sides, above and below, both
hot and cold, so as not to miss any of
the surface area of the bather's body.
1t generally costs . cents to indulge
in one of these German shower baths.
They have been adopted i'll the barracks
of the kaiSer's army. Forty European
cities have constructed them i'll connec-
ton with their public schools, wherein
it appears the young idea is taught to
wash as we'll as to shoot.
At Stuttgart there has been establish
ed one of the most elaborate public
baths in Europe. 1t contains a mon
strous pool for men, with 254 bath
houses attached, and another for wom-
en-, with 300 lighthouses. In this estab-
lishmcnt one may enjoy almost any
kind of bath known. In addition to the
pools are sun bath, cold water cure,
separate bath for dogs, hairdressing
room, shampOulng room, warm room,
cold room, steam room, hot air room,
foOtbaths, resting room, with touches,
barber shop and restaurant. No one
could fail to feel clean and happy after
taking the full course, surely.
