The Cosmopolitan.

A very curious bi-literal cipher which
has been discovered by Mrs. Gallup rum
ming through the first editions Of Bacon g
works, has excited wide interest in the
literary world. This cipher consists OF
the use of two wrong font letters at in
tervals, combinations of these two letters
in groups OF five constituting an alpha
bet. These repetitions of a wrong-font
letter cannot have been matters of
chance. Whether placed there by Lord
Bacon or by the printer, remains in
doubt. Ii by the printer, they relate a
wonderful romance-the story OF Queen
Elizabeth's marriage to the Earl OF
Leicester when both were confined. in
the Tower prior to the Queens Access
sion the birth of two sons, OF whom
Lord Bacon was the elder, the Earl of
Essex the other, Lord Bacon considered
himself the heir to the throne Of Eng
land. The bi-literal cipher further tells
that Queen Elizabeth condemned her
own son, the Earl OF Essex, to death.
The Cosmopolitan for March contains
an article by Prof. Garrett p. Serviss
fully reviewing this remarkable romance
If it is concluded to have been inserted
by the printer-or tragedy if inserted by
Lord Bacon.

The New York Girls Latest Fad.

"The punching otherwise known
as the striking-bag, solves the problem Of
indoor exercise fer girls, and is the reign
ing fad among the New York girls at
present." says the March Ladies' Home
Journal. ''By the use Of this apparatus
every muscle in the body is brought into
play and the stout girl grows thin, and
the thin girl grows plump. BY the daily
use Of some of these bags lightness Of
foot, graceful poise and a springy step
develop even to greater degree than by
means of dancing lessons. The waist
and the abdomen are reduced in size,
the weak muscles of the trunk are so
strengthened by its use that the amateur
athlete holds herself straight with ease
and comfort. The bag should hang at
about the height Of the shoulders.

At no other season Of the year, per-

vote much time and thought to the Sc
lections Of headgear as when Spring is
dawning and new gowns are the order of
the day. There is fascination in the
Easter hat or bonnet, and every woman
will appreciate the smart modes illustrat-
ed in the March Dellneator. These are
for the most part of foliage and flowers
and worthy examples of the milliner's
art. These flowers used in adjoining
the new Spring hats are small
and, in almost every instance, ma
tural in color. The favorite decoration
this season is the delicate edelweiss or
snow-fower.
