Painting in the Dark.

From Chambers Journal.
Artists are known to be often eccentric
in their methods, but II. Keyworth Raine
appears to have adopted an entirely original
sy stem of his own. While his confreres OF
the brush seeking by artfuily placed
studios to have a steady, brilliant light
upon their work, Mr.. Raine retires to the
seclusion of an underground London cellar,
and there he paints portraits which are re-
markable for their beauty and strength.
The light he elects to work by can scarce
ly be called light at all. for even the en-
feebled rays which filter through into his
dizzy studio are practically stopped by
tissue paper and curtains. Mr.. Ratne re-
Gently gave an exhibition of his method az
a London hotel. On four consecutive days
he painted for an hour at time in a room
which was almost dark. watched eagerly
the while by a committee of literary, jour
nalistic and art critics. At the end OF the
four hours the Hight was let into the room,
and fine portrait, full of power and origt-
nality. was seen to have been produced.

Tailor's Life Saving Coat.

From the Scientific American.
A London tailor has invented new life
saving coat and CATERS. with which 1t is
possible for a person clothed therein to
maintain an upright. position when I'M
mersed in the water. even If not possessing
any knowledge of swimming.
The coat resembles in appearance an ordi-
nary pilot coat but it Is fitted with an air
belt. which is inflated with air through a
tube. The CATERS each weigh two pounds
and are fitted with two brass wings or
blades fastened to the back of the heel.
AS the wearer moves his feet in the water
these wings open and shut, and not only
propel the wearer along like oars. but en-
able him to maintain an upright position
from the waist upward in the water.
practical demonstration of the utility
of the invention was recently undertaken in
the river Thames by the inventor and its
efficiency and life-saving qualities clearly
shown. even when moving against the tide.

Architecture and Dress Reform.

From the New York World.
In developing the architecture of tall
buildings New York is constantly creating
new problems in the daily life of its in
habitants. Several have been satsfac-
torily solved-by the elevator. for instance.
Others remain as far from solution as when
the original skyscraper first reared is crest

example. Where deep canyons between un-
broken walls meet cross canyons tie nj

directions at the same time. The wreckage

of air. he wear hat string as
he would at the seashore. His clothing $

1t is quite different with a woman. SIZE

a man, and she has no more hands to con-

attack her suddenly from as many sides she
is exposed to troubles that a man knows
nothing of. Naturally her free hand goes
to save her hat. She may have made
it herself or bought it with savings OF her
own or somebody else. Anyhow. ills the

The Girl Loafer.
rom the Philadelphia Bulletin

From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
A girl Ioafer That does not sound very
pretty, does it? And yet there are a good
many girls whom the title fits. In other
words, there are girls who spend their
time doing absolutely nothing. Circum-
stances do not render it necessary for
them to earn their living. and SO they
stay at home and fritter the precious mo-
ments away in useless pursuits or idle
ness. Don't a good many of them lie in
bed in the morning and let their mothers
get up and get breakfast? And don't you
think they also dress up in their best
clothes and spend the afternoons enjoy
ing themselves while their mothers stay
home and prepare the evening meal? And
when they are home they spend their
time reading trashy novels or trimming
equally trashy hats.
When girl goes to a party and is late
In getting to bed she looks on 1t as quite
proper and natural that she should be in
bed late the next morning, and all of the
family accepts the fact as a matter of
course But If the mother Is up half the
night with an ailtng baby neither her
lazy daughter nor any other member of
the family seems to think it necessary
that she should stay in bed and make up
her broken sleep Perhaps If some of
these girls could appreciate the enormous
value of time they would not waste it.
Our lives are such tiny drops in the ocean
of time. and we can never. never call
back one precious lost minute.
Dear girls. don't allow yourselves to be
called by that ugly word '1oafer," and
yet you will be If you deserve it. If your
brothers lie around the house all day.
half dressed and doing nothing, they
would be called "loafers," so why not you
as well as they? 'Loafing is a habit that
grows on one with fatal rapidity. and I'M
less you want to be held irreyocably In
its clutches you must break away from 1t
at once.

Chinese Neatness.
From the New York Sun

rTOtn tne New 1Ork sun.
Next time you are in Chinatown notice
the finger nails of the inhabitants You

AS are his finger nails so Is the rest of

and the inside Of his ears II he can af-

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger
Margaret is a well-brought-up little girl
who has some knowledge of etiquette. She
has been taken to the country this sum-

Don't go near the dog. Margaret" said
her mother; he doesn't know you, and
he might bite"
But that did not suit Margaret, and she
knew how to arrange matters Going to
the dog she made little curtsey such as
she has been taught to make at dancing
school and said politely
''Doggie, I am Margaret Brown. Then.
the Introduction having been made and
the dog having no excuse for not knowing
her, Margaret walked up and patted him,
while he wagged his tail with much gra-

nual address of the president, Rev.
James Cannon, was followed by an ad-
dress by Rev. G. W. Young, superin-
tendent of the Kentucky league.
The school Of methods, in which
prominent temperance workers of the
State participated, consumed the morn
ing and afternoon, though it is not
really part Of the convention proper.
The feature OF this school was a paper
by Rev. j. w. West, field secretary,
which was in the form of report oi
wavs and means committee. The

hibited in local option territory.
Fourth-An anti-jug and package
law enacted similar to that 10 other
States.
Fith-Common carriers to be prohib-
tied from delivering liquors consigned
to fictitious addresses in local option ter
ritory.
Sixth-A law impeachiDg officers who

The paper was referred to a special
committee for detailed report at later
session.
Already more than a hundred dele.

The Disabled Russian Ships.

An account OF the condition of the
Russian ships in Port Arthur harbor
follows
The Sevastopol is sunk in $50 feet OF
water and cannot be raised. The Retvi-
zan is terribly damaged above and below.
The superstructure was r:ddled by shell
fire. and the turrets blown up. The
deck is visible at low tide. The Pobieda
has a heavy list to starboard, and Is
much damaged below and burnt sbsve.
The Retvizan and the Pobieda suffered
more than any OF the other ships. They
appear TO be unfit for further use. The
Peresveitis slightly damaged below. The
superstructure and tunnels are much in
iured and the fighting tops are gone.
The Poltaya is the least damaged, both
above and below. The latter two yes
sells can easily be rehoated. The Pallada
and Bayan are apparently not seriously
damaged and Cal be rehoated.
With the exception OF the Retvlzan
the ships were not much damaged by
shell fire. The main armOr has hardly
been pierced, and the coming towers
are intact except where burnt and
where howitzer shells inflicted some
slight damage Three days before the
capitulation the ships were set on fire
with kerosene, and mines exploded
alongside them.
To sum up. the Peresyelt, Poltava
PalIada and Bayan may be saved at
great expense, but the difficulties will
be very great, as there is no dock for
battleships. The Retvizanis considered
hopless and the Pob,eda doubtful.
The turret guns were all destroyed BY
explosion before the surrender. Some
of the guns of the secondary armament
are intact. Most of the small guns
were removed to forts. The exact
damage to the engines has not been
ascertained.
Russians state the fleet was unfit ior
service after the engagement OF August
10. Coal was abundant and was used
TO protect the decks against h0witzel
