Ribbon Stockings.

Ribbon stockings are one Of the
latest fads of Dame Fashion, and clev-
er girls who like to keep in the fore
front of the dress procession, but who
also have to count their pennies care
fully, are making them themselves.
The foundation for the ribbon
trimmed stocking is a plain black
stocking, silk or Isle. Bands Of rib
bon half an inch wide and three inches
long, each end finished with a little
loop, are fastened upon the stockings
in such a way that they form q gradu-
ally widening figure. At the ankle
the ribbon bands are side by side and
almost touch, but at the calf, where
they terminate with a small buckle,
they are two or three inches apart.
This gives a pretty shape to the ankle
and makes a fiat leg appear round
The most refined of these ribbon
trimmed stockings are of fine black
Isle, trimmed with black satin ribbcn.
The bands are fastened to the stock
ings with very small safety pins or
with tiny jeweled pins.
Another stocking novelty is the black
one, trim--ed with a very large rib
bon bow, which fastened upon the in
step A low-cut slipper, absolutely
plain, is worn with this stocking. The
foot looks extremely daintily dressed
in this small black slipper, and the
ribbon bow upon the instep makes the
latter appear high.-NeW York Jour

= In writing OF the boosted progress Of
the last century "An American Moth
er" asks in the Ladies' Home Journal:
'What has thenineteenth century done
to the woman herself? Are her school
training, her colleges and her work in
art and literature making her a more
'Womanly woman, more fit to be a wife
and mother? If not, they are losses to
her, not gains. The chief change which
the last century made in the American
woman was that it tempted her to give
up for the new occupations of art re-
form and money making, her own real
work as a homemaker, wife and moth
-er. The nineteenth century has
dragged our women from their natural
base 1t has given them noble sur
roundings for their lives; literature,
art, social power. But they are not
content. They are nervous and rest
less beyond any former race Of WON
en-. The food given them is too light.
They look out on the world with
starved eyes. The wiser among them
are finding out that what they want is
not SHOW and public work and ap-
plause, but a simple life, repose and
the homely affections of home"

1t has been observed that on account
Of the absence Of an atmosphere on
the moon, and the consequent lack of
graduation in shadows, the eye of the
observer is seriously misled in judging
the actual relief of objects forming
the lunar landscapes. Professor Prinz,
Of Brussels, has recently developed a
method Of avoiding this difficulty, and
OF seeing the craters and other details
on the moon in their natural proper
tons. Taking advantage of the fact
that as the moon travels around the
earth the eccentricity of its orbit pro
duces the effect of a slow libration, or
balancing to and fro, which cause it's
face to be inclined now a little one
way and now q little the other way.
Professor Prinz makes two photo
graphs of the lunar object to be
studied, at opposite points in the IL
bration, and then combines them in a
microscope, whereupon the object
stands forth In full relief. This prin-
ciple has hitherto been applied only
to photographs Of the moon as a
whole and not to particular craters
OF regions.

The Russian Governments recent
experiments in coking peat promise

fuel produced from the peat is stated
to possess heat-glving power little in
ferior to that of coal, while it costs
one-third less. 1t is being used on the
railways between st Petersburg and
Moscow and elsewhere. The Govern
ment is inviting manufacturers to test
the fuel. Russia possesses enormous
tracts of peat, and If the present pro-
cess of treating it continues as sue
cessful as hitherto the country will
probably hereafter be Independent of

were simultaneous ascents from many
points, extending from France to Aus

loon near Paris reached an elevation
Of 41,656 feet, not much short of eight
miles. The temperature of the air at
that height, as shown by a self-regis-
tering thermometer, was siXty-seven
degrees below zero. Fahrenheit. An
other balloon near Berlin found the

Florence, a Fire Trap.

The fire plugs in West Florence,
and particularly in Frazer lane,
are in bad condition, particularly
should fire break out at night.
In many places the plugs are en-
tirely hidden from sight by tall
suntiowers growing over them, and
if one did not know the exact loca-
ton of the plugs delay of several
minutes would be caused before
the attachment could be made.
The council should at once see
that a plat, not only of West Flor
ence but of the entire town. be
drawn designating the exact loca-
ton of the fire plugs and that
each of the volunteer fire company
be supplied with one of them. A
start of twenty minutes of fire
among some of the cheaper dwell
ings opposite Frazer lane would
prove destructive and probably
cause loss of several thousand
dollars to the property holders.
Florence's fire equipment is very
poor at best and what we already
have should be well taken care of.
