HOW SHE LOOKED.

Just hold it slanting, that the light
May fall just so upon the glass.
There! Now you seem to have it right
Sweet, quaint, old-fashioned little
lassl
How plain and smooth her hair is
worn;
The frock, how hideous its stripe
They wore such things ere we were
born;
It's grandmother's daguerreotype.
She looks 50 serious and stiff,
Yet those two curls are perfect dears,
very often wonder if
She was as prim as she appears.
You see, her head the artist" placed
In some machine with iron grippe.
Still, signs of mischief I have traced
In grandmothers daguerreotype.
Grandfather says in time gone by
She led him quite a lively dance
Dear me! 1t really makes one sigh
To think about that old romance.
He says she had such roguish eyes
And lips he says, like cherries ripe.
It's something that you'd not surmise
From grandmother's daguerreotype

In the club life of women the very
latest thing is the Women's Canteen
Temperance Club, which had its origin
in Washington, D. c. It's prime object
is the establishment of the canteen
in the army, but many social features
are likewise provided for. The organiza-
ton was effected by the wives, sisters,
mothers and daughters of the Spanish
war veterans, aided by other women
in sympathy with them, among which
may be mentioned the Army and Navy
League, made UP of the female rela-
tives of army and navy officers.
The organization of clubs throughout
the country is now proceeding under
the direction of Mrs. ]. Walter Nit
chell, wife Of Capt. ]. w. Mitchell, de-
partment commander of the District OF
Columbia of the Spanish War veterans
when the Spanish War veterans held
| their national encampment in WASH
ington last fall and unanimously pass
ed resolutions directing its Legislative
committee to make a fight before Con
gress for the restoration Of the can
teen, and appointing Capt. Mitchell as
special officer to act with that commit
tee, the wives, daughters and sisters
of the veterans at once joined heartily
| in the movement.
The first organization of the Wo-
mems Canteen Club was effected in
Washington, and it is claimed that the
membership has grown very fast.
Mrs. Inez Seymour Mcconnell was
elected president, and other officers
were chosen. Since then the club has
held number of social entertainments
which have attracted attention. The
members wear small canteens as their
badge.

The most difficult thing for the be-
ginner in embroidery to learn is to
shade We'll So hard, indeed, is it to
acquire this art, that it is much better
for the novice, while mastering stitches
and when learning to work smoothly,
to confine herself to white work.
For the last few years this all-white
embroidery has been in so much great
er demand that there has been little
use for shading. Now, however, that
colored embroideries are in once more
it is well for the beginner to make a
close study of it, so as to learn how
the best effects may be obtained.
This does necessarily mean that an
expensive course of embroidery lessons
must be taken OF course, when one is
within reach of good teacher, and
can afford to take at least a few les
sons, it is always well to do so, but
some of our best and most successful
embroiderers have had absolutely no
instruction beyond what they have ac-
quired from books and by close study
of finished pieces of embroidery.
True, one must have a sense of color,
certain intuition of where the lights
and shades are to go, but even where
this is apparently lacking it can be
cultivated by close observation and
practice
AS the most shading-at least, the
most dificult-is required for floral de-
signs, it is well to try to copy nature
as closely as possible. If you are to
embroider nasturtiums, select a num-
Der Of these snowy and highly colored
blossoms and see just what rich com
binations may be made, and how much
variety one can put into a single spray.
1t is well though, for the beginner to
attempt flowers that require simpler
color effects, as the wild rose, violets
or carnations.
Shading must be done so artistically
as to leave no sign where one color be-
gins and another ends This, Of course,
means there must be no decided line
between two shades, but the stitches OF
one color should run well up into tho
other II distinct lines or blotches OF
color are necessary, a sort OF Veinlng'

AQUARIUM HATCHERY WORK
Nearly a Million Young Fry Turned
Out This Season in New
York Hatchery.

Very nearly 100000 little fishes-their
number computed at $4,000, to be OK
act--have been Matched out In the
Aquarium's model hatchery thus far In
the present season, the last to be turned
out to date being a big lot Of yellow
perch, some of these from eggs Of speci-
mems in the Aquarium, and some from
eggs received from the state fish hatch
cry at Cold Spring Harbor, says the
New York Sun.
These yellow perch will be used for
restocking with this species the waters
in the city parks, and many have ID
ready been placed in the lake in Pros
pect Park.
Next before the yellow perch Matched
out here in the present season, were q
large lot of salt water smelts, these also
from eggs received from the Cold
Spring hatchery. The salt watsr smelt
goes up into inlets In the spawning sea-
son, and like the shad, for instance, up
streams to spawn. The young smelts
Matched out in the Aquarium's hatch
cry were put over the Battery sea wall
Immediately back Of the building into
the Hudson.
Before the liberation Of the young
smells there had been sent out from
here for planting in various state
waters, all Matched in the Aquarium's
hatchery, young whitefsh, rainbow
trout, lake trout and hump-backed
salmon.
Among eggs yet to be placed in the
hatchery in the present season are
pike perch eggs from Vermont, black
spotted trout eggs from South Dakota,
and the eggs Of grayling trout from
Montana.
The Aquarium's hatchery, with Its
eggs seen in Matching troughs and jars,
and its Matched out young fishes IN
various stages Of development IN
troughs and banks, is an object OF un-
failing interest to visitors.

THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES.
Theory of Mutation Does Away
with the Theory Of Sc
lection.

Or. G. A. White, of the Smithsonian
anstitution, points out that the theory
OF DR.. de Vries, of Amsterdam, &C.
sording to which new species Of plants
come into existence, not by long
Brocess of natural selection. as OAR
win supposed, but through sudden
mutations, the cause of which remains
unknown, applies equally well to new
species Of animals. The giant dino
sours, for instance, whose remains, as
found in our western bad Lands,
excite SO much amazement, appear by
chronological evidence to have
sprung suddenly into being and as
suddenly to have disappeared. All the
nfher animal types also seem to have
been well characterized when they
:flrst made their appearance. The the
ory Of the origin Of species by muta-
ton, when applied either to the plant
or animal kingdom, does away with
aAe demand made by the natural Sc
section theory for Unfortunately long
periods Of time, during which exist
ang races were brought gradually to
Itkeir present condition.
