Black and white Effects.

Black and white effects are o
prominent than ever among the new
gowns in sight. White organizes are
made up with wide insertions of black
Chantilly or French lace, and the new
gown of any sort. which has no touch
of black OF white, or both, is the ex-
ception. Even the light cloth gowns,
deliberately trimmed with cream lace,
which have no black at any other
point, will have square black velvet
bows on the front of the bodice, pos
sibly down the front of the vest, if
there is no other available space.
Black velvet rosettes and streamers
will also supply the GROWING touch
Of distinction to many Of the summer
gowns.
An important feature of the new
thin gowns which must not be over
looked is their sleeves. They appear
in great variety, but the most fash
ionable are the elbow sleeve, which
appears with or without a cuff, but is
generally finished with a frill Of lace
or of chiffon wider at the back than
1t is at the front, and the new lin
gerie sleeve. which is a sleeve which
ends just below the elbow. From this
point there emerges a full undersleeve
Of some thin fabric or light texture,
confined in a cuff or finished with a
rufle.

This College Girl Is O. x.

A college girl, slipping down to New
York last month for a Sunday at home,
found presently her seat in the train
shared by a young man. His appear
ance betrayed his species-the sort In
whom assurance is developed at the
expense Of breeding-and in q few mo-
ments his conduct Tailed with his
looks.
Finding that staring and smiling
were ignored, he offered a newspaper
to his companion, which was declined
by nod of the head; then a maya
zine, also declined. Undaunted, he
hazarded the remark that the winter
was very mild. No notice was taken
of this interesting statement, but he
followed it with others, suggesting that
the train was crowded, the manage
ment Of the road poor to permit it, ar
rival in New York might be delayed,
and several other equally important
communications.
Finding that silence was to be no
protection to her, the young woman
finally turned. 81 see," said she. "by
the motion of your lips that you are
talking. AS I am stone deaf it will
do you no further good to continue the
conversation" The young man rec
ognized his Waterloo, and fed incon-
tinently to another wallpapers Ba-

Parsley (minced) is a delicious flavor
for both the stufing and sauce.

AMERICAN GIRL

Constantinople Cor. Chicago Record:
The other day a pretty American girl.
smartly dressed, and smart enough to
boot, arrived in Constantinople on
board the Augusta Victoria. She had
not been long in the city before she
did that for which many a dutiful SUBJ
ject of the sublime porte has lost his
head in times not far past. Like other
visitors, she went to see the sultan go
to worship in the mosque n Friday.
Finding that from her carriage she
could obtain but a poor glimpse Of the
procession, she promptly climbed a
tree, and thence obtained an excellent
set of views of the proceedings. Her
camera came into use, and the result
was an excellent set Of views Of the
mosque and the sultan riding up to
the great door. She was Immediately
spotted by a policeman on the lookout
for such deadly weapons as cameras.
He Immediately ordered her down. ex-

and the crowd tried to help him. In
the middle. Of the dispute the sultan
rode up along with his brilliant stan
and 5000 picked soldiers. After fruit
less expostulation the glittering mon
arch and his discounted soldiers rode
away, swearing by the prophet that
the American girl must be IN emissary
of Eblis. It is not often that the sui
tan is thwarted in this manner.

"Th. Sign of tn. Cross"

A novel addition is to be made to
the structure of Grace church, San
Francisco, in the shape Of a cross Of
electric lights to shine nightly from
the tower of the church. The emf
nence upon which the church stands.
and the height of the tower will make
the cross visible in every part of the
city, and far acros the bay. The wires
will be so arranged that every side Of
the symbol will be perfect in form, so
that there will be a cross shining to
the four points of the compass. The
novel display is the gift Of Mrs. Will
liam H. Croker, who has not only
arranged for its construction at her
expense, but has also contributed an
endowment for the perpetual main
tenance Of the light.-Living Church.

people are not aware that "What the

fewer still will be prepared to hear
that the phrase, "a regular shindy,' Is
found in an authors note to q poem
called 1.-THE Popish Kingdom" pub
lished in 1870. A writer in the Athe-

A Hint =. to tn. Teeth.

Sound teeth not only add to one
comfort, but they, prevent disease.
Many diseases Of the eye, ear and cav
tiles of the head are traceable to un-
sound teeth, and there is not a disease
to which the body is liable that is not
aggravated by an unhealthy condition
Of the teeth. Eye diseases are espe-
clally common as the results Of poor
teeth. These affections may,vary from
q simple dimness of. sight to, total
blindness. the symptoms. however.
usually disappearing when the teeth
are attended to. Poor teeth are, more
over, a common cause Of indigestion,
for good digestion can take place only
when the food is thoroughly masti-
Gated and this demands sound and
healthy teeth. Proper a r Of the teeth
during childhood often means preven-
ton Of much trouble later in life. A
physician desiring to ascertain the per-
centage Of children who cared for their
teeth properly, distributed printed slips
in a school, having the questions: do
you cleanse your teeth with a brush
every day." do you cleanse your
teeth with a brush twice q day? OF
700 pupils only fifty cleansed their
teeth twice a day, 275 used the brush
sometimes and It's did not even own q

worth was willing to do that much,
and Wardner asked permission to

Bosworth agreed to this, too, and
Wardner sat down and wrote a "rec-

over to Bosworth to read and sign.
Bosworth read it over once and then
went through it again, and looked up
at Wardner in a h~alf-surprised, curious

Then he signed the letter and Jim

STRANGE TRIBE OF ESKIMO

just Discovered ON . Large Island in
Hudioa's nay.
On q big island in Hudson's Bay a
hitherto unknown tribe Of Eskimo has
been found. Whalers discovered them,
and the authorities 1T the American
Museum Of Natural History, hearing
the news. sent Capt. G. Cromer to in
vestisate them. How we'll his work
has been done Is evidenced by the glass
cases now at the museum in New York
city, filled with the strangest exhibit
that ever came even from the strange
north land. Until the last few months
these people had never seen a white
man. They inhabit Southampton is
land, which is almost as large as the
state Of Maine. It is at the north
western end of Hudson's Bay. For
centuries this tribe has not had the
slightest communication with other
Eskimo. When discovered they were
still living in the stone age, and knew
no metals until they were introduced
within a year by visiting whalers, and
to-day they live just as they did when
they first emigrated-from no n
knows. where. Their residence, prob
ably, a%ntedates the discovery of Amer
lea by Columbus. They speak a dia-
lect different from that Of any other
known tribe. Their huts are built. of
the skulls and jaws of whales, covered
with skins Of animals. Snow huts are
the fashion among other Eskimo. In
the middle Of their primitive dwelling
stands the stone lamp (raised a little
from the ground) which lights the
home, heats it, cooks the food, serves
for melting snow, drying clothes and
the perfecting of some of their weap-
ons and implements. Among the
Greenland Eskimo this lamp Is hol-
lowed out Of soapstone, but on South
ampton island the lamp is made Of a
fiat piece Of limestone, around the
edge Of which narrow pieces of lime
stone are glued. Their pots are made
Of the same material, one slab serving
as the bottom and four others for the
ends and sides of the queerest pot ever
made. The glue is made Of deer's blood.
grease and ish roe. One glance at
the inside Of. one Of these pots, lined
with this pitchy mass. is enough to
take away q white mans appetite for
