The scarab Is popular design for
rings, scarf pins and sleeve buttons.
Buckles this year are larger, hand
somer and more elaborate than ever.
Green walrus and gray ooze calf are
two of the most fashionable feathers
for belts.
Drapery net for mourning millinery
resembles point d'esprit sprinkled with
tiny dull Jet beads.
The moonstone is in evidence as the
setting for some of the newest sleeve
links and fancy buttons.
Tabs and tails are the correct adorn-
ment for fur muffs this year, stuffed
heads having been discarded by Dame
Fashion.
Square eyelet holes are an innovation
on some Of the new leather belts to
match a square harness buckle and
square tongue.
The grape ornamentation has caught
the fancy Of the hosiery manufacturer.
and white silk stockings show a design
of fruit and foliage over the instep.
Leather belts are cut so as to con-
form perfectly to the slight dip in
front SO much used now to give the
becoming and fashionable long-waist
effect.
The newest gold-topped viniagrette
with jeweled centre is distinguished
from its predecessor by the shape,
which is square, instead Of the familiar
round form.

The botanical papers report that De
Vries, the great Dutch experimental
evolutlonist, has by long continued Sc
lection produced a variety of clover
which has normally four leaves. Thus
1t Is that science contributes something
daily to the increase of human happi-
ness and good fortune. How many
hours We have spent on our hands and
knees searching for the lucky leaf.
Even yet some of us always walk
across a clover patch with downcast
eyes and are arrested with unconscious
cerebration at any indication of quad
duplicate foliation. Now We can buy
our own luck at the greenhouse, provid-
ed, of course, We are lucky enough to
have the money. The disparity of for
tune, an evil already so threatening to
our social and political life, will be
increased by this new discovery. The
rich man can buy his four-leaved clov-
ers, even his five-leaved and siX-leaved
cloyers, and roll in them, while the
poor man will still have to hunt long
on the lawn for even a little luck, and
then he is likely to be told to keep off
the grass. His only hope will be for
the new variety to escape from culti-
vation and grow like the Russian
thistle by the sidewalk. But by that
time the millionaire will doubtless have
eight-leaved clovers in his conserva-
tory.-The Independent.

MARRIED WOMEN's NAMES.

In several of the smaller towns In
Wisconsin, where a strong organized
movement has been made to get the
names of women on the registry lists,
Consideration has been caused by the
discovery that married woman is not
illegally registered if the Christian name
by which she Is designated on the lists
Is that of her husband. Thus, Mrs.
John Smith," whose "given" name is
"NIary," cannot vote unless she is
registered as MARY" or, if she does
vote, 1t must be by the troublesome
process of swearing in." Socially, n
married woman always goes by her
husbands full name, prefxed by
"Mrs." until he dies, unless the pair
are severed by a divorce. Legally
however, it is only his surname which
Christian name continues to be an es-
sential part of her formal designation,
supplemented, if she chooses, by her
patronymic. If she is a public char
acter-a writer, speaker, physician
she is generally known by the name
which she bore previous to her mar
riage, with her husbands surname ap-
pended Thus Ella Wheeler became
Ella Wheeler Wilcox. Thus Elizabeth
Cady became Elizabeth Cady Stanton.
The whole nation knew the great
woman suffragist by that name, but
comparatively few people knew her
by the name of Mrs. Henry Brewster
Stanton though Henry brewster STAN
ton, her husband, was in his day n
well-known man.-Milwauke Wiscon-

A NOVEL SCREEN.

One of the very novel fire screens Is
in Spanish leather. There's an odd
wood standard, and from this extend
arms jointed like those Of snake. So
when the screen is not needed these
arms, from which the much-engraved
leather hangs, are simply folded around
the centre standard.

CLEANS ENAMELLED BATHS.

Enamelled baths are the trial Of the
housewife, who does not understand
how they should be made to retain
their pristine freshness. Vigorous
scrubbing Of them is not desirable, but
a simple way of cleaning them is this:
First wipe out the tub with q dry
cloth, then thoroughly rub it with a
cloth dipped In salt and turpentine.
than which nothing is better for re-
moving stains. After the tub has been
gently secured in this manner rinse
with clear, warm water, dry with a
fresh cloth, and the tub will look like
new.

A NEW FEMININE CALLING.

The calling of veterinary surgeons
Is not one in which women have here
tofore evinced any special disposition
to shine, but one member of the fair
sex is preparing herself for gradua-
tion from n veterinary college and ex-
poets to receive her diploma in the
spring. The aspirant for honors in
this particular field is Mrs. Mignonne
Nicholson, now a resident Of Chicago,
but whose childhood days were spent
In Long Island town. Cats and
dogs are her special pets and while in
accordance with the requirements Of
the veterinary institution she is OBJ
iiged to learn how to doctor horses
she proposes to give her attention
after graduation to her special favor
| ties and has already proved successful
: In her treatment of dogs.

Medical men say that books and
paper money carry the microbes of dis
ease, and yet the employees of public
libraries, who handle hundreds OF
books daily, and bank officials, who
handle thousands of notes, do not
"catch' the diseases. The reason is
that library people do not wet their
fingers with their lips to turn over the
leaves of books, and bank officials do
not wet their fingers in the same way
to count money.

The city OF Bombay, India, is to be
equipped with an extensive system of
electric traction and lighting, while
another scheme for operating stretch
of road is to be carried out. Water is
to generate the necessary power for
both projects. For these purposes two
huge water-power plants are to be con-
structed. The machinery for supply
ing the electricity to work the railroad
is to be installed on the Doodh Sagar
River, about 300 miles north of Bonn
bay. at waterfall which is about 2500
feet in height. 1t is anticipated that
with the projected machinery for this
installation $4,000 horse power will be
generated-available throughout the
year-sufiicient to operate some sixty
miles of track. The power for lighting
and working the street railroads of
Bombay is to be transmitted from
Neral, about forty miles distant from
the city.

The formation in the gold fields OF
South Africa is peculiar. The gold is
in reefs. According to the Mining and
Scientific Press, these reefs are massive
and made up of coarse granite con-
glomerate and sandstone, with here
and there large or small cement seams.
The gold is not in the quartz or sand.
stone, but in the cement. The streaks
which carry the gold are from six
inches to sixty feet in width, and al.
most invariably widen with depth.
When the outcropppg is first discov-
cred it looks like vertical vein, but
soon tlattens out Oh depth. The mining
there is more like coal than gold min
ing anywhere else. Shafts are nearly
all sixteen by eight or sixteen by six.
