Combination Party Gown.

AS party gowns are such expensive
luxuries. the girl of limited income
cannot afford more than one, which
must answer for all dress occasions.
Being to all intents and purposes an
evening costume, it is of course made
decollete, so in order to make it suita-
BILE for other affairs that demand an
elaborate but high necked gown the
economical young woman has several
yokes and pairs of sleeves made of net,
chiffon and lace to give variety to this
combination gown. The pretty lace
yokes that may be purchased so cheap
ly just now are the very thing for
these useful accessories when they can
be matched in other lace from which
the sleeves may be made.

THEATRICAL.

"A Trip to Buffalo enjoys the dis
tincton Of being one OF tho most unique
productions of the season. Every phase
OF the stage routine is Incorporated,
from burlssque to drama. There Is as
much music in the piece as the average
comic opera and Of = better quality than
many musical productions. The vaude-
vile features are among the best obtain
able while the scenic and costume
vestiturs is another especially strong
point. The plot is not obstrusive, yet a
connected story is told so as to give full
swing to the comedians. The company
is the strongest at this time it has ever
been.
There are forty people in the cast,
including what has come to be widely
known as the Beauty Chorus" = title
given because of the personal attractions
OF the young women composing it. In
the third act the Pan-American Exposi-
tion is pleasingly recalled by \ reproduc-
tion OF number of the best known
features including the Streets of Cairo,
the Filipino Village and the Streets Of
Mexico. The illumination of the Elec-
trio Tower and the Esplanade, the
crowning glory of the Exposition, is
effectively and gives comprehensive
suggestion OF the beauty of the original.
t t
Denman Thompson's "Our New Min
ister" will have one more presentation
at the Grand opera house, this season,
on Tuesday evening. That this latest
product of Mr.. Thompson is one to con-
jure with is evidenced by the countless
requests Of a theatrical managers every
where to book it, for it is one of the few
genuine money winners OF the present
dramatic season. Before it's first pro-
duction in Boston, two years ago, it's
managers had only moderate e1pecta-
tions concerning the new piece, but
it did that most astonishing of all
things-surprised its managers, and that
is more than surprising ones mother
AS the "Old Homestead brought many
dallars to the fortunes of its author so
will be the case with "Our New Minis
ter" The same great cast will positive
ly be seen.

In speaking OF The Fast Mail"
the Toledo Times of August l3 says:
The formal opening OF the season in
Burt's theatre was most propitious
Though the weather was certainly not
such as to drive people indoors for amuse-
ment, the house was filled upstairs and
down. Perhaps the bill had something
to do with the attendance. The Fast
Mail seems never to lose IT'S popularity
The scenic and mechanical effects never
pail; the steamboat explosion thrills,
and the express train satisfies W tn
unfailing certainty. This time, in ad-
dition to the stage effects, there are a
number of clever people in the cast,
who thoroughly pleased the audience by
their good acting and numerous specia
ties.

FOR THE CHILDREN


Kitty liked fruit very much. Do you
know any little girl who does not?
Her mother often gave it to her. but
she did not like to have her take 1t
without leave, because she had once or
twice made herself sick by eating too
many apples. One day Kitty went into
the dining room alone. She soon espied
something that looked very nice. Away
up on the sideboard, out of her reach,
was a handsome glass dish full of
beautiful peaches, pears and grapes.
Kitty's mamma had invited some little
girls to spend the afternoon with her,
and this fruit was for her tea party.
She did not tell Kitty, because she
wanted to surprise her.
"Oh, what boo'ful peachesw said
Kitty to herself. "And such nice
grapes Dear me, l think mamma
might hab glib me some! Too bad! It's
real mean! l dess I'll det some though,
anyway"
Kitty pushed a chair up to the side
board. She looked all around and
listened, but no one was in sight
Blanche, the white eat, lay on the rug,
and Polly, the parrot, was perched
near the window and seemed as sleepy
as puss Kitty climbed up in the chair
and stood with her little boots right Oh
mammals nice plush cushion. She
knew she was naughty, but she didn't
care She reached up and caught hold
Of a large cluster of grapes.
'I'll tell mother!'' said sharp voice
behind her.
1t was only Polly Gray, but Kitty
was so startled that she slipped, and
over went the chair. Down went Kit
ty, humping her head and bruising her
elbow and crushing the grapes in her
hand, so that the juice ran over her
nice white apron. She screamed, and
mamma left the pretty dress she was
making for Kitty to wear at the tea
party and ran in to see what was the
matter. You may guess how sorry she
felt that in place of the delightful
surprise she had planned for Kitty the
little girl had made for herself sur
prise that was not nice at all.

THE JAPAN CURt-uT.
ISurO SiwO Piles Great Loads of
DrfftyoOd on AIuska's shores.

w
DrfftyyoOd on Alusi<a's shores.
In one sense the Kuro Siwo, or Japan
current, is the most interesting in the
world because many oceanographers
believe it was the direct means of peo-
ping America. This much at least is
certain: f a boat were to be set adrift
on parts of the Asiatic coast and sur
vived all storms, the Japan current
could be depended upon to carry it
across the Pacific and deposit it on the
American shore. Such a thing has
happened. In 1892 nine Japanese fish
ermen were left derelict and unable to
find their way back to shore. They
went with the current, and after
drift lasting during several months
they were carried to Hawaii.
Trees torn by storms from the banks
of Asiatic rivers frequently float across
the Pacific to the American coast. Be
tween Kakatag and Kyak islands,
about leo miles northwest of Seattle,
enormous piles of this driftwood cover
the beaches. There can be no question
of the Asiatic origin of the timber.
They are the trunks of the camphor
tree, the mango and the mahogany
Logs 100 feet long and eight feet in di-
amcter are frequently found. Many of
| them are seen floating shoreward, with
fantastic roots standing high above the
waves. In places the logs are piled
! twenty feet high. They are generally
without bark, which has been peeled
off by the waves, and most of them
have become white and heavy from
impregnation with salt water. AS they
pile up the sands drift over them, and
gradually they sink out of sight, and
new beaches are formed. This process
has been going on for ages, and the
shore line is being steadily extended.
Excavations along the beach show that
texture of the buried timber gets\hard-
er and harder the farther in you go,
until in some instances petrifaction has
taken place. Other excavations show
logs that have turned TO coal.
The presence of Siberian driftwood
on the shores of Greenland convinced
Nansen that his idea of drifting across
the Polar sea in the Fran was logical
Great quantities of the wood are an
nualy cast on the coasts of SpitZ
bergen and Nova Zembla, and there
are tribes of Greenland Esliimos who
depend for sledgc runners and Other
wooden implements on the drift from
Siberian forests. For years they de
pended for iron implements on the
hoops of casks which came to then
over seas.-Theodore Waters in Aims

New Kind of sugnr Tree.

4 small Brattleboro boy watched with
interest the process of tapping maple
trees and gathering sap, as carried on by
some of his older companions, says the
Phoenix. Then he went home and tapped
an apple tree in the back yard, hung up
his bucket and waited for results. The
milkman, who was amused at the sight,
on entering the yard next morning
thought he saw an opportunity for fun,
and he filled the bucket partially with
milk. The small boy was out a little
later to see how the sap was coming.
On examining the bucket he was amazed,
and at once rushed to the house, ex-
planning the situation to his mother
" Mamma" he exclaimed, "there must
be a COW in the tree"

ALFALFA IN VERMONT.
Experiment Station Trials not Encourag-
ing for Our Farmers.

Experiment station IrialS NOT EncOurHE-
ing for Our Farmers.
Alfalfa produces such large yields aud
such highly nutritious forage when.
grown in its natural habitat-he far
West-that its praises are sounded In
every agricultural paper. Eastern farm
ers naturally wish to grow this crop, If
its success be assured, and are nquiring,
as never before, the probability of its
satisfactory growth in New England.
The experiment stations of New York
and New Jersey report that II does well
in many parts of those commonwealth
but the Vermont experiment station
officers are bot optimistic as to its sue
cess in the Green Mountain state.
The Vermont station has repeatedly
tried to grow alfalfa with varying re-
suits. In 1887 and 1888 seed was sown
under its direction by about forty farm
ers. with uniform record of failure.
Several sowings on the station grounds
have been made since that time. Some
of these have been weed choked, others
have winter killed entirely or in spots, or
have run out from others causes. Two
good stands have been attained, one of
which has Just come through its third
winter in fair shape. A few small but
good pieces have been grown at sundry
points in the Champlain valley, and it is
not unlikely that few others may have
been grown at other points in the state.
Success or failure with alfalfa in Yer
mont depends, first, on the man, and
second, on the soil. lie who would grow
this crop must understand it, and
must be prepared to put time, labor,
money, thought and enthusiasm into il
without prospect of much return for a
year or two, hoping for future success.
The land must be well drained and in q
good state of filth and fertility. 1t should
be prepared as for onions. All weeds
and weed seed must be killed, for al.
falfa is a weakling which, so to speak
must be brought up Oh the bottle. Fal
lowing the land for year, frequently
and thoroughly cultivating it for the
purpose of killing out weeds, is goot
preparation on weedy piece for alfalfa
Alfalfa cannot be grown satisfactorily
with nurse crop or in mixture will
grass seed. When once established /
should be cut at least three times yearly
the first cutting occurring in. June, wei
before the usual time of haying. If cut
ting be delayed quality suffers. 1t must
therefore, be grown by itself, unmiXet
with grass. Another serious difficulty i
found in the patchy nature of an alfalf
field after few years growth. 1t is ap
to winter kill in spots, and these are dit
ficult to get stocked again.
The size and quality of the crops of a
falfa obtained at the Vermont static
have not been greater than those of re
clover. In brief, it may be said that it
felt by the station officers that the ger
erality of Vermont farmers are NOR
likely to succeed with red clover tina
with alfalfa.

ii. Derby of Stowe has a set of crock

old deep blue ware that the potteries are

stacked the plates upon pins to keep
them apart while being baked. and all
the plates and saucers in this set have
three little pin holes on the under side.
