in common use. TO this chemisette
are added immensely wide, short
sleeves. Her hair is brushed back

In her hand she carries a fan, without
which she would feel lost Her head is
covered with a white mantle of very
thin material. Finally the toes of her
naked feet are partly covered by a

with no heel. and just enough upper to
enable her TO thrust two or three toes

DOMESTIC SERVICE IN cAILE.


Senorita Carolina Huldohro. of
Chile, the other day gave a lecture in
Boston on the women of her country.
Her account of the domestic service
question is interesting
There are two kinds of cooks. She
said. Advertisement read: Wanted.
cook with bed inside or Wanted. a
cook with bed outside The latter sort
of cook can always be had. Domes-
ties prefer the bed outside because a
cook who does not sleep in the house
has more liberty. She does not begin
quite so early in the morning. her
mistress cannot get quite 50 much work
out of her and she can steal little
more; yet her services in the main are
satisfactory After dinner every even
ing the cook comes for orders as to
the next days meals. Even il unable
TO read, she viii remember every item
of an elaborate menu. She is given
certain amount OF money to buy the
provisions; for everything is bought in
small quantities, just enough for one
day. The cook will only cook; she viii
not wash the dessert dishes, for that
belongs to the table girls work; the
table girl will not clean the knives,
for that belongs to the boots The
washing is all done out, and the clothes
are brought back in from three days to
five weeks.
THE laundress has most winning
ways, and often brings her employer
flowers and candy; but she asks for a
dollar for soap for each washing. and
has to be closely watched. Every ser
want who lives in the house brings her
own he'd and furniture. a girl from
the country viii arrive with only a thin
mattress and one poor coyerlet, ana

years with a CARLOAD of goods that
she has accumulated. When several
servants are leaving at once. with their
bedding and furniture. it looks as if

The women of Chile are not of
mixed race They are pure Spanish,
and of the finest blood of Spain They
speak Castilian Spanish, and have the
general characteristics of Spanish

Every observer notes a considerable
number of small meteors while he is
engaged in telescope observation. The
field of view of a Telescope is a very
small fraction OF the whole surface Of
the heavens A simple proportion
based on the number Of observed me-
teors enables an estimate of the num-
Der of meteors in the whole sky to be
made. This estimate has been made
by DR.. See of the Naval Observatory
at Washington, who concludes that
about 1900, 000,0 00 telescope meteors
appear in the whole sky daily. About
ten to fifteen million meteors bright
enough to be visible to the naked eye
encounter the earth daily, according
to the calculations of Prof. Newton.
Most OF them are consumed in the at
mosphere. The increment OF the mass
