The maximum at p. m. was 80. and
at ten o'clock last night the mercury
at Schnepf's stood at an even 80, with
every prospect that il wouldn't drop
much lower. There wasn't a breath OF

In q Church
~ " Belfry

There hangs in the belfry of the lit
Savannah, in Andrew county, this
state, a bell which has an interesting
history. In 1862, fcrty-eight years
ago, there occurred at Lexington the
most disastrous accident which ever
befell a steamboat on the Missouri
river, one attended with the greatest
loss of human life. The Saluda. a side
wheel steamer, with a battery of two
boilers, was on her way up the river
with a cargo Of general merchandise
and her cabin and lower deck crowded
with passengers, most of whom were
Mormons. The river was unusually
high, and the current as it came
around the point just above the town
was strong. To add to the difficulties
the river was full of floating ice which
had broken loose from a gorge higher
up. Captain Francis T. Belt, comman-
der of the boat, had made repeated eff
forts to stem the rapid current, but as
often failed. At last, on the morning

for the flood to subside, he again order
ed steam to be raised for a final eff
fort. He went to the engine room,
looked at the steam gauge, and asked
the engineer how many more pounds
of steam she could stand. On being
answered that she had already every
pound that she could safely carry, he
gave the command, Fill her up; put
on more steam,' and remarked to the
engineer with an oath that he would

untroubled life; everything In 1t Is
connected with sub~ordination and
duty; even its pleasures are serious
and its joys austere, and are all In
themselves significant Of authority aud
dependence" The dress Of Persian Ia
dies is more snowy than tasteful, more
picturesque than modest, according &c
European ideas. 1t should, however,
be remembered at ace that what
might lei immodest in the western
world, is regarded as quite natural In
the. east. The "char-kadd" Tor head
dress) is, in the case of the rich, very
pretty and costly; Kashmir shawls
and embroidered gauze, ~bespangled
with golden coins and enriched with
precious stones, are used for this pur-
pose: while the ends of the Char
kadd" droop gracefully over the shout
ders, and a "jika,' or bejeweled feath-
er ornament, Is worn on the side of the
head, producing a very jaunty effect.
Ornaments Of jewelry are much al
fected, scent caskets are suspended
from the neck by golden chains, and
the arms are covered, often from the
wrist to above the elbow-with ban
giles, which vie in quantity and quail
ity with the coin bangles so often worn
by ladies' of fashion in Europe. As
in India, the poor wear silver orna-
ments as anklets and bracelets, and
the negress slaves adorn their ebony
skis with the bright pink of coral.
The Persian ladies' outdoor dress Is
far from attractive, consisting, as a
rule, of a large blue drapery, which
envelopes the entire person, and quite
conceals the wearer's identity. The
head is covered with a perforated linen
veil, which enables the wearer to look
upon the outer world, but does not dis
close her features. A man may pass
his own wife in the streets of Teheran
and o know her, but she may see
him. Now and then the veil will be
slightly lowered, and a pair of laugh
ing, roguish. bewitch!ng brown eyes
revealed. For a pretty woman, even
in the east, does not care to conceal
her attractions beneath a veil. and the
daughters of Eve in Persia are not In
different to admiration. There are only
eight or ten thousand Parsees left In
Persia, the original home of Zoroas-
trianism, but the Parsee women are
daintily attractive in dress and quietly
refined in manner.

Open-Air
80 Cure.

Away up In the Julian Alps, in the
midst of an almost perfect solitude, is
the mountain village of veldes. a
health resort where people go about
almost in the state of our first parents.
1t is n of those ''cure" places of

kinds scattered over Europe. DR.. Ar

these latter to be produced by cold and
heat (perspiration), and the absolute
cleansing Of the body with water. In
a sheltered valley beside Veldes Lake
lies the "air hut colony" absolutely
cut off from the rest of the world. Soon
after your arrival at Veldes to take the
"naturheil' you will find yourself the
inhabitant of one of the huts, a three
sided structure of one room, opening
toward the lake, and sparingly fur
nished. Here you will sleep, read,
write and rest. There is a brown Hol-
land curtain which you can draw at
will across the front of the hut, which
otherwise is open to the elements. In
the middle of the collection of huts
is the large common dining room, roof
cd over as a shelter from rain. but
with a floor of gravel and open on
three sides to the weather. At five
o'clock. or soon after, in the morning
the colony awakes and the people start
of for a walk to the air bath. These

and surrounded with thick trees and
bushes. One is for the women patients
and one for the men. Once inside the

velvets for Evening Wear and Colder
Embroideries.

velvets for Evening Wear and Golden
Embroideries.
A marked tendency toward picture
gowns is singularly evident on all the
latest evening toilettes, yet nothing
extreme is copied, writes a foreign
critic of the modes. The most simple
point of beauty seems to be distracted
from an old time garment, and COM
bined with the ingenious design OF
more modern style, which often forms
a captivating result. Lace and guipure
dresses will be worn, made over a n
lining of tissu dor, when gold, reflect
ing through the design, adds a particu-
lar charm. Velvet for evening wear
will be much cut up with lace, golden
embroideries and painted gauze In
crustations. Pompadour and richly
painted sashes will garnish lace and
embroidered muslin toilettes. Very
full tulle dresses trimmed with In
Vulnerable bouillonnes and spangled
dclicately with strass stones, will be
adopted for t~oilettes de bal. They will
sweep the ground gracefully. and not
be unpractlcally long.
There is every possibility Of gold re-
naming in favor for early spring
models. On many white muslin blous-
es (now made to wear with costumes
de tailleur on the Riviera) the tiny
tucks are stitched with gold thread,
and taffetas silk blouses are brocaded
with gold flowers. This glittering
metal is woven in such delicate It's
sues that it is introduced in an unob-
trusive name on almost everything.
Workmanship and embroideries show
no sign of becoming less costly; on
the contrary. as ideas are improved
upon the work seems to become more
perfect, increasing in finesse and ac-
curacy. Rich brocaded velvet designs
are often cut away from the silk. leav-

The men wear ordinary bathing
trunks, but the women put on gowns Of
d~iaphanous gauze and al the morning
they walk about the grass or up and
down the sandy paths, bareheaded and
b~arefooted and bare shouldered. The
temperature is about 60 degrees. but
no one seems to take cold. At seven
O'Clock an attendant brings TO the in
closures long brown loaves of bread,
pots OF honey and bottles of milk.
Thereupon ensues an altogether" pic
mic, which Is breakfast. This veal tho

then take the great sun bath. On the
roof of a large bath house the patients
lie naked. stretched out in the sun,
with their heads only protected. They
are left to bake there for forty min

wrapped in blankets until the perspi-
ration pours from the skin of the VIC

utes the patient is plunged into a te-
pid bath and scrubbed and shampooed.
Lunch of the most frugal description

mostly in recuperating from the ef-
fects of the treatment of the morning,
and at $50 o'clock the colony assem-
bles for the first full meal of the day.
