BEAUTIFUL HANDS.

AS / remember the first sweet touch
O, those beautiful haDds that loved
so much,
! seem to thrill as then was thrilled,
Kissing the glove that found untitled
When | met your gaze, and the queenly
bow
: AS you said to me, laughingly: "Keep
it now;"
p And, dazed and alone in adream stand,
Kissing the ghost of your beautiful
hands.
When first loved you, long ago,
And held your hand as | told you So
Pressed and caressed it and gave it
And said 81 would die for hand like
thisr'
, Little dreamed loves fullness yet
Had to ripen when eyes were wet,
And prayers were vain in their wild
demands
For one warm touch of your beautiful
hands,
Beautiful hands! o, beautiful hands!
"Could, you reach out from the alien
lands,
Where you are lingering, and give me
tonight
Only touch-were it ever so light
My heart were soothed and my weary
brain
Would lull itself to rest again; -
For there's no solace the world com
mands
Like the sweet caress of your beautiful
hands.

Separate Waists Going Out of Fashion.
In spite of the fact that all the
smart dressmakers are sending out
costumes this season made with
skirt and waist, and also that the
best fashion advance notes tell us
that separate waists are no longer
fashionable, there have never been
so many different styles of waists
and skirts worn that have absolutely
no reference one to the other. Per
haps the very number worn is the
reason that the fashion is said to be
on the wane. In the mean time, par
ticularly while hot weather lasts,
women are certain to make the best
of this most convenient style OF
dressing, and consequently the man.
ufactureTs of the fancy shirts have
taken advantage of the present de-
mand, and are turning out quaint
ties of most bewitching and attrac'
tive shirt-waists, while the
more elaborate waists of lawn, cam
brio, ETC., made not only by machine
but by hand, are, to use a trade eX
preston, flooding the market. The
plainest kinds of shirts made in the
cheapest materials, but of surpris
ingly good cut, are sold ready mad,
for less than a dollar. There ar,
other hirt-waisis-the pattern o
which is much the same, but o
course better cut and fitted-whicl
are sold for several dollars. Ii j
easily seen, therefore. that there al
enough TO choose from.-Harper'

The Brazilian Variety Very scarcs-A
Possible substitute.
Ten or twelve years ago one could
buy all the Rio ipecac root he wanted
for $1.25 an ounce, says the New York
Tribune. Now it costs $4.25, and 1t is
quite a. likely to grow more expensive
- to become cheaper. The supply has
almost ceased and the worlds stock IL
said 70 be In the hands OF few Amer
lean dealers. There Is much talk, how
ever. at the present time about the
ntness Of the Carthagena, or New Ora
NADIA, root a. an efficient substitute for
the Braxilian article. At least two
points Of difference have been noticed
between the two. One Is merely in
appearance. When cut open the Car
thasena root shows certain rings less
distinctly than does that from Rio.
The other distinction ID more impor-
tant. The alkaloid upon which the
Braxilian ipecac depends for it, sctiv.
ity II known a. "emetine." This ID
found to only a small degree In the
Carthagena root. The characteristic
principle Of the latter IL known a.
"cephaeline." and its action IL some
what unlike that Of emetine. Com
menting ON the situation week or two
ago. tho American Druggist expressed
surprise that more study had not been
given to cephaeline by experts than 1t
has thus far received. Whenever new
varieties Of vegetable drug are dis
covered It ID customary to investigate
them with great particularly. Thus
far. however. the physiological chem
lists are unable to speak with confidence
about the active principle Of the New
Granada root. One secret Of the dimin-
ution IN the output Of Rio ipecac ID
the labor Of digging the roots. The
operation involves bending over, and

zioNisrIc MOVEMENT.

Land Of his Fathers.
The Jews are developing . :schene
that has for its object the pufdhake Of
Palestine from the Turk and the
foanding Of . Jewish government In
the land Of their fathers" writes M
ward A. Steiner In the Woman's Home
Companion. ALREADY the movement
has become formidable one in some
OF the European countries. The leader
OF the movement Is DR.. Theodore Herl,
Of Vienna. an author Of European rep
utation, who. unwilling to bear longer
the taunts Of the anti-Hemitic mob in
his native city. and unable to erase
from his face and heart the marks Of
his race. has planned this exodus with
the view Of restoring to his people the
land once. their own, in which, un-
molested. they might live and govern
themselves.
AN able aid to DR.. Herzl 10 Rabbi
Moheleth Of Russia, one OF the noblest
and most charitable Of men, revered
for HIS piety and saintliness of char
acter. At his word Of command the
Jews would come out Of Russia like
bees out Of hive. Why should they
not be glad to leave country where
they have experienced only hatred,
shame and cruel oppression? In Ger
many there are scholarly men yearn-
Ing to lead their people-not from mar
row ghettos and squalid homes, but
from the broad streets of Berlin and
from the merchant palaces of Leipsic
and Frankfurt-into country of their
own government, where they will no
longer be the despised and prosecuted
beings they now are. In Rome, in en-
Ice and in many other places In Eu-
rope the exodus fever is spreading and
burning In the hearts of the down
trodden but hopeful people.
Among the French Max Nordau, the
well-known author, is the leader. From
Paris, from Marseilles, from Boulogne,
the Jews expect to go in large num-
bers. leaving behind them a country
where Justice weeps because she is not
only blind but fettered. In our own
America the movement has not re-
ceived such cordial reception, be-
cause the need of 1t is not SO apparent
here. Though, OF course. the American
Jews who sympathize with this new
exodus do not intend to leave the
United States. yet they are encourage
ing 1t for the sake of their oppressed
brethren all over the world"

that awful blow put an end to all his

crew escaped the blow, and the har-
pooner managed to cut the line, so
that for the present they were safe
enough, clinging to the remains Of
their boat. unless the whale should
choose to rush across them.
Happily. the rushing was almost
over. The bomb fired by Mr.. Count,
with such fatal result to poor Bamber-
ger, must have exploded right in the
whales throat. Whether his previous
titanic efforts had completely exhaust

who were new to the whale fishing.
such malformations are not very rare.
They are generally thought to occur
when the animal is young. and its
bones soft: but whether done in Tight
Ing with one another. or in some more
mysterious way, nobody knows. Cases
have been known. believe, where the
deformed whale does not appear to
have suffered from lack Of food in
consequence Of his disability; but in
each Of the three instances which have
come under my own notice. such was
certainly not the case Th0se whaIes
were what is termed by the whalers
"dry-skins;" that is. they were in poor
condition. the blubber yielding less
than half the usual quantity OF oil.
The absence Of oil makes It very hard
to cut up. and there is more work in
one whale Of this kind than In two

o. Hsr Finger with Maehsss That
Clinched II to the Flssh.
New York Sun: Rosie Pierre, 10
