Aii Improvement In Elevators.
Elevator accidents are so common,
and in many cases so startling, that
inventions looking to the safety of pas
sengers have multiplied very rapidly
within the past few years. One of the
newest is the air cushion, which is
formed by the elevator itself. At the
bottom of the shaft is a well anywhere
from twelve to eighteen feet deep.
Below the elevator is a platform that
tits closely into this well, and if the
elevator gives way, it so nearly fdls
the space that in driving down the air
it meets with steady and powerful re
sistance. The air escapes very slowly
around the edge of the platform, and
practically does away with all danger
of a serious crash.—The Ledger.

AVhcn is a Woman Olcl?
This query on my mirror hung:
“When is ft woman old?”
It clings to mo and long has clung,
The answer must be told.
Ah, some are old before half way,
And some arc never old,
For these hut laugh life’s care away,
While those both fret and scold.
And yet it is no easy task,
However well controlled,
To answer one, if she should ask,
“When is a woman old?”
The graceful ones are all still young,
And those alone are told
Who try to make themselves look young
When age has taken hold.
The oldest ones of all the old
Aro those who would look youn"
For they will always fret and scold
When age’s sign is hung.
As long as women cling to youth
And disregard their age
They never can be old, forsooth,
Their youth 1111s up the page.
Yes, some are old before their time—
Old age usurps their youth
And some are young beyond their prime
Unless they hide the truth.
—Washington Post.
The Return of Steel.
Steel ornaments promise to become
s popular as they were several years
ago. Fortunate is the woman who has
the habit of saving things, for she can
take out her steel ornaments of any
description, don them and rest assured
that she is doing the correct thing.
Steel combs are much worn and look
well against either dark or light hair.
Velvet bands for the neck, thickly
sewed with steel, are also in high favor.
The lluft'm Fashion.
Paris sends word that the ruff is
once more the fashion there. It is
made generally in lisse or chiffon, very
wide at the back and decreasing in
size at the front. Some ruffs, how
ever, are of the same width-all around.
The most gigantic of these ruffs ex
tends to the ears, and is finished with
a flounce of plaited chiffon reaching to
the waist. This ruff is said to be a
comfortable substitute for the fur boa.
Smart Walking: Costume.
A smart walking costume, in plaid
tweed, with blue ground, and checks
of various colors and black, is made
like a plain dress, with a full bodice,
and over this is worn a sleeveless
bolero of blue faced cloth, handsomely
braided in black mohair braid, says
the Lady. Some of these checked
materials are woven with the design
on the cross, which considerably facili
tate the operations of the tailor or
dressmaker, and these look exceed
inly well pleated up into sun-ray skirts,
with an Eton coat or bolero of plain
cloth in the predominant tone of the
plaid.
The Sponge Bath.
While the great majority of women
have neither the facilities nor the
time to take a full bath every day,
nearly all can take a sponge bath,
which is all that is necessary for clean
liness. A basin, a sponge and a cork
mat comprise the essentials, and five
minutes’ application a day will keep
the pores of the skin open and the
body in a healthy condition. Some
people require more bathing than
others. Brunettes, as a class, and fat
people in'particular, are apt to need
more baths and lotions to dispel the
secretions and perspiration that defile
the skin. In order to live up to the
ideal, a woman should be exquisitely
and habitually clean, and rather over
step than fall short of the hygienic
standard. It is advisable to be sus
picious of neatness, if necessary, in
order to perfect it.—The Ledger.
Can’t Bose This Curse.
“The newest thing in women’s
purses,” said the man at the leather
goods counter in one of the large de
partment stores, “is a pocketbook that
she cannot lose. It is fastened to her
by one strap that goes around the mid
dle finger, and another one that
buckles around her wrist, like the
bridle on a horse’s head. The advan
tage is that she cannot leave it on the
counter when she goes out, and also
that no one can grab it from her hand
where she has for years carried it to
tempt the vicious in her daily travels.”
Another dainty purse is a foolish
little gold lace pouch that is attached
to a chain that extends around her
neck. On this the gold purse dan
gles about when she does not carry it
in her hand. This trinket gets lost
in time in spite of the guard chain,
which is at best a delicate affair.
The leather strap purse costs about
$3.50. The gold pouch outfit, when
made of good material, costs in the
neighborhood of $2O.
The Womanly Grace of Dependence.
“The reason why there are so many
unhappy marriages,” said a bright
young woman, “is because women
know too much. They are too inde
pendent, too prone to lead, rather than
demurely follow. Now, when I get
married, I am going to be absolutely
dependent—to all appearances. If we
are going to take a trip it will be hubby
who will see that the expressman
calls, hubby who buys the tickets and
checks the luggage, and if he sees fit
to smoke his cigar\ so leisurely that
the train we were to take moves away
without us, I will not nag him by say
ing, ‘Oh, do hurry up, we haven’t a
minute to lose.’ No, I shall remark
cheerfully. ‘There are other trains, I
suppose, that we can take,’ and next
time I guarantee he won’t dawdle over
his cigars or expect mo to prod him
into activity. I will be helplessly
clinging, to all appearances, with no
notion whatever of what the word
‘management’ means, but behind his
back I will put my wits together and
will do everything in my power to
save his money for him, in the run
ning of the house and the judicious
selection of my own wardrobe. Then
I will lay away my savings and should
i rainy day come, I will drag them
forth and present them to him, at
which time he will be astonished to
discover that the simple, unsophisti
cated wife knew a thing or.two all
along.”—New Orleans Picayune.
Women on Shipboard.
A current newspaper calls attention
to the old superstition among sailors
that women on board ship bring ill
luck. In the days when sailing ves
sels were more numerous, it says, and
Jack bad a wider opportunity to select
among the floating homes one that
most nearly coincided with bis ideas
of comfort and safety, be was apt to
shun those whose captains shared the
glories and comforts of the after cabin
with a better half.
Nowadays steam has made the
opinions of sailors of as little account
as sailors themselves are, but, the
prejudice survives are, but the preju
dice survives in the minds of the few
old salts that have not fallen' to the
rank of coal shovelers and cleaners of
paint.
To the superficial observer, this ob
jection to the presence of women at sea,
made dry a class of men' who, when
ashore, are far from showing indiffer
ence to feminine charms, would seem
to be a particularly absurd and unrea
sonable piece of honsense, but the
Coast Seamen’s Journal, which is a
paper not given to the fostering of mys
ticism, says that there is more than
superstitution in the old belief.
Close attention to happenings on
the ocean, it declares, will prove to
any one that women do bring ill luck
on shipboard, not, of course, through
any dark working of the supernatural
powers, but by increasing the natural
severity of captains, and by their read
iness to give evidence in behalf of their
husbands against which, in a court of
law, the word of a maltreated mate or
sailor is not apt to be of any effect.
A surprising number of modern in
stances are given in which sea trage
dies of one sort or another have oc
curred on ships that had the captain’s
wife on board.
The Coast Seamen’s Journal does
not suggest the advisability of a bard
and fast law forbidding such compan
ionships in the merchant marine, but
it says that real evils frequently result
from them tmd intimates that the only
remedy is an extension of the privilege
now enjoyed by commanders to minor
offioers, and possibly to the men.
The idea, apparently, is that there
is safety in numbers, a view not to be
dismissed as altogether fanciful. —At-
lanta Constitution.
Fashion Notes.
The sunshade with the hinge in the
handle is again popular.
Waists or blouses of plaid silk are
worn with blazer or jackets of durk
cloth.
Burned orange is a striking color
for silken accessories with dull-colored
fabrics.
For traveling gowns select materials
which are strong and durable and
which are not easily rumpled by rough
usage.
Linen suitings are again at the fore,
and will doubtless be as popular as last
season for the perennial skirt aud
costumes.
Norfolk jackets are worn. Some of
them have belts that slip underneath
the plaits and fasten with a jeweled
buckle at one side.
Velvet ribbon in a regular lattice
work to cover a loose vest, the lower
part of sleeves, a collar and skirt pan
els is quite a French fad.
A close, fitting basque waist of velvet
has one wide lapel faced with cloth in
a contrasting color. The belt, collar
and cuffs are of the light cloth.
Semi-transparent lawn or linen
promises to be a great favorite for
dressy costumes, as they admit of
trimming being used with great effect.
Among the latest color combinations
are orange and light tan, mauve and
mastic, blue and orange, and brown
or golden tan with a very pinkish lav
ender.
For railway travel a simple ulster
or dust coat of alpaca or silk, in a de
sign of pinhead points, is the most
serviceable and stylish of all gar
ments.
In some hats only the crowns show
the straw, the stiff brims being covered
so thickly with flower petals that the
under framework of the hat cannot be
seen at all.
An Eton jacket has long points slop
ing back a little from the middle of
the front. The revers meet over the
bust where there is a loose scarf of soft
silk tied in a knot.
For shipboard the most comfortable
suit and the handsomest iu the long
run is a yachting suit of fine indigo
flannel, or in the beautiful navy cloths
worn by officers of the navy.
Colored lawn frillings are applied to
white dresses, and flower-printed
lawn is used for portions of the bodice
and sleeves aud blouse waists made of
the same color as the flounces at the
bottom of the skirt.
Some of the new dresses have pos
tilion backs. These are usually be
coming to most figures, and when
properly made and adjusted to the
form are a very desirable finish. In
addition to their becomingness they
permit a closer union of skirt and
waist than is usually the case and con
ceal the tendency to break apart that is
quite too apparent iu many of the
dresses one sees on the public prom
enades.
An extremely stylish costume has a
skirt of watered silk, with waist of
velvet of the same shade. Over this
is worn what might be called a jacket
cape. The back and front of the gar
ment are half fitting, and there are
sleeve sections the full length of the
jacket. These sleeve portions are
made of ruffles, one slightly overlap
ping another. The cape collar is of
embroidery, and a standing army of
plated chiffon, with butterfly bows at
the sides aud back,

THE ARMY SHOE.
An Old Soldier lternlls HI. Kxperlenco
With Footwear.
“The first pair of shoes I had in the
army," said an old soldier in the New
York Sun, “were two sizes too big fo?
me. I wore sixes; my first army shoes
were eights. I didn’t take them from
choice—l got the nearest I could to
my size. We were being fitted out
from head to foot for the first time;
that was when we were mustered in;
and the required numbers of pairs of
shoes, of assorted sizes, had been de
livered to each company. When I got
at them they had been culled over so
much that there was nothing left
smaller than eights.”
“I didn’t think it would be possible
for me to wear a shoe two sizes too big
for me, but I tried a pair on. They
were brogans, having Haps, with two
eyelets on each side, lacing over the
instep with leather shoe strings. They
tied snugly, so that the heel and ofteu
part of the shoe, and the sole, did not
shuck on the foot. Tito forward part
of my foot felt as though it were out
doors; but I thought they might do; I
had got to have a pair of shoes, and I
took them.
“I wore those shoes for months, and
with the greatest comfort. They were
enormous, or they looked so to me.
As soon as I began to wear them the
thick leather of the uppers humped up
into big, rounded edges, with valleys
between, across the top, giving to the
top of the shoe a sort or fluted or cor
rugated effect. These corrugations
remained always just the same as long
as I wore the shoes. They were not
what you would call a handsome shoe,
but, as I said, they did not shuck
around on my feet, and they were
mighty comfortable.
“But it doesn’t follow that after that
f always got shoes two sizes too big
forme; as a matter of fact, I didn’t;
but I always did get shoes plenty large
for me; plenty; and found comfort in
wearing them.
“Sometimes we used to draw boots;
javalry boots. And it was kind o’ fun
;o get boots. I remember very well
the first pair of boots I drew. I think
1 felt (perhaps in a little maturer sort
if way, though not much so, either)
ibout as much pleased over that pair
if boots as I did with my first red
lops when I was a boy. To get on a
oair of cavalry boots sort of made a
man feel a little bit less like a plodding
infantryman, and a little more like a
savalryman; it gave him a sort of a
horse-and-sabre touch. But this was
only as lie walked down the company
3treet after drawing the boots from the
quartermaster; the next day, on picket,
the boots were about the same to him
is shoes would have been.
“Still there were men who preferred
boots and always drew boots when they
could get them. But for myself I like
shoes better. A mounted man, of
course, wants boots; but according to
my notion the most comfortable thing
for an infantry soldier to wear is a
good, roomy shoe that can be made
snug enough somewhere so that it won’t
shuck around on the foot.
Autograph Audacity.
Many readers may recall experiences
in getting the autograph of Henry W.
Longfellow. The author of “Chats
with Celebrities” has something to say
about this very thing:
“I remember one very pleasant party
at the poet’s dinner table,” writes Mr.
Guild, “at which Mr. Monti, Profes
sor E. N. Horsford and myself were
present, when Mr. Longfellow related
a numbqr of amusing anecdotes re
specting applications that were made
to him for autographs. He was very
kind to autograph-seekers and used to
keep in a little box upon his writing
table a number of slips 'upon which
were written.
“ ‘Yours very truly,
“ ‘Henry W. Longfellow.’
“One of these would he sent to the
applicant by a member of his family to
whom he passed over their requests.
“But the autograph-seekers were
not always satisfied with a mere signa
ture and he often sent a verse from
Dne of his poems, signed with his
name. The most remarkable request,
however, came from a lady in Boston,
who the poet said, sent him by express
a package of 150 blank visiting cards
with a letter requesting that he in
scribe his name on each of them the
next day, atf she was to have a grand
reception at which a number of literary
people would be present and she
wished to present each one of her
guests with the poet’s autograph.
“This was too much for even Long
’ellow’s good nature, and would seem
:o be hardly credible had I not heard
t from the poet’s own lips.”
Burial Places.
The ancients looked on Death as
‘the daughter of Fight, the sister of
Sleep and the friend of the unhappy.”
Their artists pictured the giim mes
senger who. knocks with equal foot at
the cots of the pool' and the palaces of
the rich, as a drowsy,, poppy-crowned
youth, not as a fleshless monster,, such
as horrifies us moderns. The Greeks
called their burying ground Coemet
trion, “the sleeping place,” from
which comes our word eametery. The
old Jews, who had no horror of the
grave, called it Bethaim, ‘■‘the house
of the living.” The Germans, with
poetical simplicity, call the graveyard
“God’s Acre,” or “field.” The Ara
paho Indians call tho grave “The
Spirit’s birthplace.” In Morocco they
never say a man is dead, but that “his
destiny has closed,” and the grave is
“where he ponders.” The burial
grounds of to-day are the most beauti
ful parks near the cities of civilized
lands, but there are those who believe
that burying must soon give place to
cremation;indeed, societies are formed
for that purpose, and we are told that
cinerary urns will take the place of
tombstones. But the fashions of bur
ial seem to bear, unchangeable as death
himself.—New York Ledger.
Accepted as a Good Omen.
While tho engine of the Never sink
Fire Company, of Beading, Penn., was
responding to a fire alarm on© cf the

stone. Its shoe was loosened and the
momentum lifted the iron to the third
story of the building at 331 Penn
street, where it crashed against tho
window of the Bod and Gun Club and
hung to the sash. Five panes of glass
were broken and two members who
were at the window ~had a narrow
escape. The shoe ascended at least
thirty feet. The club will have the
shoe framed.—Philadelphia Press.
Too Good.
“John,” said the father, who had

“Why not? I thought it was first
rate.”
“It was fine. I’m afraid that if he
finds out how much more you know
