SAN FRANCISCO, July S.-The
British survey steamer Egeria arrived
from Esquimalt, b. C., yesterday morn

coaling there viii proceed to Apia.
From Apia the soundings will be taken

continent.
The Egeria put in here for coal
When her bunkers are filled again she
will go to the point where she left of

WHY 1900 I. Not a Lean Year.


The year 1900 will not be counted
among the leap years. The year is 365
days, 5 hours and 40 minutes long; II
minutes r taken every year to make
the year 365 IL hours long, and every
fourth year we have an extra day.
This was julius Caesars arrange
ment. Where do those eleven minutes
come from? They come from the fu-
ture, and are paid by emitting n leap
year every 100 years. But if leap year
is omitted regularly every Tooth year.
in the curse Of 400 years it is found
that the eleven minutes taken each
year will not only have been paid back,
but q whole day will have been given
up.
So Pope Gregory III, who improved
on Caesars calendar in 1852, decreed
that every centurial year Invisible by
four should be leap year, after all. So
we borrow eleven minutes every year,
more than paying our borrowings back
by emitting three leap years in three
%centurial years, and square matters by
having a leap year in the fourth centu-
rial year. Pope Gregory's arrangement
is so exact, and the borrowing and pay
ing back balance so closely, that we
borrow more than we pay back to the
extent of only one day in 1896 years.

she would fall hack into such conven-
tional claptrap as that favorite among
German women, in which they vaunt
themselves as superior to American
women in wifely affection and devo-
ton. "The German wife does not go
off roaming the world at her husbands
expense and leaving him to shift for
himself in his deserted home. She
stays in it with him." the Frau Yer
wittwete would say at one time. At
another she would reply to the same
sentiment from another Of the Ger
man boarders. Eyes, but why does
she stay? Because shes has to. Ger
man men won't let their wives go off
and have a good time without them.
If only one of a German pair can trav-
ell, it's the husband always, and you
know it." When she made such m
phatic remarks the Frau Verwittwete
had a way of emphasizing them with
her plump index finger at the length
Of her arm. Fortunately, like the rest
OF her stout person, it was short as
we'll as fat, and consequently only

eyes of her adversary were safe.
1t was really a pathetic situation,
however, for all it's humor, and one
could not, when that wistful look
would come into her face as the flood
of travellers with their flood of travel
talk swept by her and left her strand
ed in those two best rooms in the pen
sion which she had taken by the year
and furnished herself with her own
goods and chattels and an air of per-
manency-one could not but feel
sorry for her, and yet all she had to
do was to buy her ticket and take the
train as she saw American, English,
Scotch, Danish and Russian women,
old and young, doing every day. That,
however, was precisely what the poor,
well-provided-for relict couldn't do.
After sixty years of tutelage it isn't
easy to be adult. AS the Frau Verwitt-
wete said herself: eff you want to do
anything we'll, you've got to begin at
it young"

What Thick Lips Mean.

DR.. A. Bloch. the French anthropol-
ogist, attacks the theory that thick lips
are a denotement Of s%ensuality, while
thin and delicate lips denote spiritual
ity, firmness and elevated character.
In a recent paper the scientist claims
that the shape, size and color of the
lips are purely race characteristics,
and that in the hybrid people of Eu-
rope and America, where there has
been such a general intermingling of
races, a child may we'll inherit from
not very remote ancestors lips that
completely belle the actual character
of the child, as indicated by the lip
theory. DR.. Bloch's Investigations sat-
isfy him that really thick lips in the
white races are always anomalies or
freaks of nature.

of ceremony. The princess shape has
the advantage Of displaying well the
design of the rich brocades and fancy
velvets now worn. the beauty of the
pattern taking the place of extensive
trimming. The richer the material en-
ployed the longer is the gown, all prln-
cess costumes trailing more or less, &C
cording to the quality of the tissue and
the general elegance of the toilet. II
the gown consists of but n material,
trimmings of rufies and ruches may be
employed if they do not conceal the
design of the goods. The fastening Is
almost always at the back, and the
gown is closed by hooks or laces, the
latter being preferred for evening
gowns. The lacings extend from the
top of the bodice to a little below the
hips in order to keep the upper part
Of the gown perfectly tight M
smooth.

BY tho Apple Tree.

1t was not anger that changed him of
late;
1t was not difidence made him shy;
Yon branch that has blossomed above the
gate
Could guess the riddle-and so can I.
What does it means when the bold eyes
fall,
And the ready tongue at It's merriest
trips?
What potent influence holds in thrall
The eager heart and the burning lips?
All me! to falter before a girl
Whose shy lids never would let you
know
(Save for the lashes' wilful curl)
The pansy-purple asleep below.
Nothing to brighten a man away
Only a cheek like a strawberry-bed;
Only a ringlet's gold astray,
And a mouth like a baby's, dewy-red.
All, baby-mouth. with your ,.dinpled
bloom!
If but yon blossomy apple-bough
Could whisper a secret learned in the
gloom,
Tha deepens it's bushes aver now.
No need, for the secret at last is known:
Yet so. I fancy it might not be-
Had ne not met her, by chance. alone.

A Girls School Hat.

The fashion of tipping the hat over
the eye is so becoming to fresh young
faces that it is not surprising to know
that the fashionable hat of spring will
be a tipped one. 1t will be low over
the eyes and turned up abruptly IN
the back.
The hat can be of any of the rev
delicate shades of straw trimmed with
roses and velvet. Lace straw is the
most fashionable and the popular color
will be the new red-brick.
Roses of this color are very beauti-
full and can be set around the crown
and heaped at the back like a bush.

Care of the Teeth.

If the proper amount of care was
bestowed upon the teeth there would
not be the complaints we hear from
day to day, the teeth would last like
any other part Of the body, with only
the repairs made necessary by wear
and tear.
There is nothing better for the teeth
than precipitated chalk favored with
wintergreen, and it has the advantage
of being cheap. Brush with this in
the morning and use only water N
the brush at night. For the rest of
the day refrain from the use Of the
brush, but use a piece of dental floss
OF a thin rubber band to remove par
ticles of food from between the teeth
after each meal. 1t is we'll to brush
the tongue as we'll as the teeth, as the
coating works considerable harm to
the surface of the teeth. A drop or
two of tincture Of myrrh on the tooth
brush will sweeten the mouth and a
few drops in a small glass Of water
used as a gargle will take away any
faint that may remain on the breath
after the nights sleep. More harm is
done by too much brushing and. too
much dentifrice than by letting the
teeth alone.
There is another caution I would
give in the care of the teeth. Do not
use much soap. It. will make the teeth
feel smooth and nice, but will not re-
move discoloration. I saw an instance
Of that in a splendid set Of teeth in a
pretty girls mouth. She decided to
DISCARD dentifrice for white CASTLE soap
and had passed through a week of that
treatment when I met her. give you
my word she was a sight. Every mi
of her good sound teeth was trimmed in
black which required the best efforts
of her dentist to restore them to any
thing like their former beauty. The
roughness of dentifrice is necessary to
remove discoloration and used in mod
Grafton it will improve any set of teeth.

Fr,ehtenl.x Children.

Nothing can be worse for q child
than to be frightened. The effect of
the scare 1t is slow to recover from;
1t remains sometimes until maturity,
as is shown by many instances of NOR
bid sensitiveness and excessive ner-
vousness. Not infrequently fear is en-
ployed as a mean of discipline. Chill
dren are controlled by being made to
believe that something terrible will
happen to them, and punished by being
shut up in dark rooms. or by being put
in places they stand in dread of. No
one without vivid memory of his child
hood can comprehend how entirely
cruel such things are. We have often
heard grown persons tell Of the suf-
fering they have endured. as children,
under like circumstances, and recount
the irreparable injury which they are
sure they then received. No parent,
no nurse, capable Of alarming the
young is fitted for her position.
Children, az near as possible, should
be trained not to know the sense of
fear, which, above everything else, is
to be feared In their education early
and late. Some interesting facts deal
ing with the fears Of children have
been collected by a well-known profess
sor. He found that 1,701 children were
afraid Of 6,456 things. The leading
fears were lightning and thunder.
reptiles, strangers, the dark, death,
domestic animals, water, ghosts, in
sects, rats and mice and high words.
Some of the fears were the results Of
personal experiences-that is, in a dis
tritt where a great wind had wrought
q havoc the children were afraid
of it. In other cases the anal
ysis showed by what means parents
had worked upon. the imagfnations Of
their children. In one district sixteen.
poor little ones were dreading the end
Of the world. The most gratifying fact
Of all was that not one child had been
frightened into obedience Or good con-
duct by the fear Of the devil. A CEN
tury or two ago that fear would have
led all the rest. The pleasing infer
is that parents now dwell upon
affection and love to insure the good
of their children. instead of ter
rOrizing them with Satan,a. wrath.
