CAPS AND GOWNS FOR GIRL STUDENTS.
The long-talked-of matter as to
whether or not the students of the
Woman’s College of Baltimore shall
wear caps and gowns has been decided
and the caps and gowns ordered. The
authorities have selected the regular un¬
dergraduate gown with the regulation
Oxford cap. Just when they are to be
worn is as yet unsettled, a3 some of the
authorities desire the students to wear
them to any aud all college exercises,
while others prefer them to be worn
only on special occasions.—[New York
Independent.
KX-EMPRESS EUGENIE.
The beautiful Spaniard; the low-born
who would accept an Emperor’s love
only “through the church door;” the
Empress who cried, “This is my war!”
“This is my war!” when the French
troops were marching for Berliu, is de¬
scribed by a man who saw her recently
as faded and utterly broken, carrying a
uane and stumbling as she walks. She
sometimes stealthily leaves England for
Paris, but she cannot remain loug in the
French city. Queen Victoria is still her
friend. Otherwise she seems quite alone.

MASAI WOMEN.
The Masai \yomen were very interest¬
ing. They were fairly loaded down
with coils of brass aud iron wire, which
formed earrings, leg-lets, collars, weight and
armlets, often amounting to a pounds. of
forty, fifty, and even sixty,
Those who cannot afford to wear the
heavy coils, wear as many of the lighter
bracelets as they can procure. The
higher the rank of the woman, the which more
of this sort of jewelry she Fashion wears; her
betokens the fact that has
slaves even in Central Africa. The
Masai women are tall, gaunt, and bony,
but not well developed, probably owing
to their wearing so much heavy jewelry
while growing. They are very fleet
and strou v , and are the purveyors of the
tribe; allowed to pass unmolested every¬
where, even in times of war.”—[Demo
rest’s Magazine.
, A MADE-OVER GOWN.
A bright* head girl*, with more her banker’s, of a deposit has
in her than at
made herself the most fascinating of cos¬
tumes out of a last year's gown. The
skirt of the gown, which was of dark
wool, she cut and fitted over to the de¬
sired shape. Fortunately, it was a dull,
reddish, rough stuff, and with a little
quilling of velvet doubled together and
plaited she finished the edge. Then a
black velvet coal, relic of former gen¬
tility, was made to do duty as a little
jacket, cut shorter than the Eaton model,
slashed up the back to the neck and
■edged all around with a finish of jet.
The top of her skirt she edged about
with a double bias fold of velvet, fitted
•neatly, and less than two inches wide
when all finished, and this she hocked
over a full waist of the gay green and
blue tartan wool, checked off with a
thread of scarlet in silk.—[St. Louis Re¬
public.
PRETTY PINS AND THEIR USE.
Little girls and big girls “with silver
pins sticking in their sleeves,” and also
adorning their bonnets, bows and bodices
and various other portions of their
attire, are a common sight this season.
Pins, both little and large, are exhibited
in every conceivable modification. These
ornaments were never more fashionable
nor in greater variety, and are set with
Irish diamonds, tiny pearls and stones,
framed in gold, silver, jet, steel and
iridescent metals, the patterns showing
heads of birds, bees, moths, green and
gold katydids, ruby eyed “darning
needles," June bugs and the like.
Some of the delicate floral ornaments
are exceedingly beautiful, being mounted
in fine gold and enamel and set with
brilliant stones that flash and glitter with
every movement of the wearer, Real
diamonds set in pins, dagger hilts and
slender fillets for the hair are worn by
every wealthy woman, but these shed
no more brilliant rainbow rays under the
gas or electric light than the popular
“brilliants,” which are safer for obvious
and many reasons, their possible the loss not of
being of great moment, as in case
genuine jewels.—[Philadelphia Times.
A LOST ACCOMPLISHMENT.
The reasons of the growing infidelity
to needlework as an amusement are not
far to seek. The nervous restlessness of
the modern temperament is one of them.
Our grand mothers knew nothing of nerves
and were content in the accomplishment
of one square of wool work in the span
of a labor day. Hour after hour sat the
mother of all, living at her spinning
wheel or at her tapestry frame, slum¬
brous of brain, tranquil of heart and
placid of face, while the world without
revolved in bliss or despair, recking
naught of her whose soul lay in the
evolution of an embroidered blossom or
the turn of a stocking heel. To-day far
other issues claim the energies and the
wits of womanhood; her ears are no
longer closed to the press of life nor to
its pain, for which knitting is no sedative
nor crochet an anodyne. discarding of
Another reason for the
■what is commonly called “fancy work”
among educated women is characteristic the spread of
the utilitarian spirit so of
these latter days. Life is less ornamen¬
tal than it was, but it is certainly more
useful as a whole. Butterflies may be
numerous enough, but there are more
bees. What is the use of embellishing
antimacassars? is a question which cer¬
tainly never occurred to our fair ances¬
tresses, but it rises naturally enough to
the heart and also to the lips of the
modern maid who joins a Dorcas society
if the love of stitchery be in her, or sub¬
scribes to a library if it be not. Lawn
tennis has also something to do with the
decline and fall of the work basket.
Twenty years ago the necessity for
physical exercise had not dawned upon
the female intelligence, and the doctrines
of hygiene were neither understood by
the public nor formulated by the faculty.
The boys of the family went out into the
fresh air to play ball, but the girls sat in
the school room and learned to do crewel
work, while their mothers played
croquet, with never a vision of tenuis to
disturb their lethargy. Now these ac¬
tivities are the rule instead of the excep¬
tion, and as the days provide in them, np extra the

WEARING WORK OF A TEACHER.
Close observation shows that teaching
is oue of the most wearing occupations working
for women. Even the hard
clerk, typewriter, journalist and or drudge¬ seams¬
tress, with longer hours more
like employment, keeps her health and
aud strength better through five years of
continuous service than does the average
school teacher. The girl who begins
with erect carriage and rosy checks will
be seen in the course of a few years to
have lost both. Much of this is attri¬
buted to the nervous strain necessary for
the regular routine of governing often an
unruly class and at the same time teach¬
ing the required studies. But allowing
that teaching is hard work, without
entering into the reasons, certainly
nothing should be neglected which adds
physical comfort to these positions ot
honor, filled many times by earnest
women who strive by enthusiasm in their
work and by a noble example to make
teaching a profession. be absurd to declare
It would seem to
it is their right to occupy only rooms
which can be properly heated and ven¬
tilated, and yet a girl known to the
Brooklyn Eagle last winter owed a severe
attack of pneumonia to the low tempera¬
ture of her room, while others suffered
more or less from the same cause. Be¬
cause there are conditions over which
the teachers themselves have little or no
control, they should be all the more care¬
fully attended to by those who do.
There is another consideration, however,
for which they themselves are responsi¬
ble, ami that is the midday luncheon,
which is very apt to be a basket affair,
eaten as rapidly as possible in order to
go on with school work, or, as while one
teacher said, “She took a bite

for the afternoon session.” The full

IIOME-MADE BEAD TRIMMINGS.
In these days of passementerie, used lavishly bead
fringes and gimps so the on
both day and evening gowns, her woman
of trimmings taste aud and ingenuity thereby can make small own
save a
fortuue. 1 he handsome jet fringes and
gimps cost enormously, and so do the
tinsel and metal embroideries. But if
you will buy the jet beads by the
and secure long, thin beading needles
and very strong silk, patience and taste
will do the rest. Suppose that you wish
to make an Empire belt with a deep jet
fringe. Purchase a strip of ordinary jet
trimming, mount it on .stiff muslin and
stud it thickly with jet nailheads until
it is as heavy and rich-looking as you
may desire. Then the fringe. Fasten
each long thread of beads separately sufficiently on
the belt, until you have a
thick fringe. Line the belt with black
or colored silk, and you have a hand¬
some ornament which can be worn with
any gown. Embroidered velvet yokes
and sleeves will freshen up an old gown
aud make it as good as new. Suppose
you have an ancient black gown known
to all your friends. Put in a pair of
emerald-green velvet sleeves, studded
with black nailheads, and make a jet
belt studded with emerald beads.
Presto! a smart, new costume, Frills
for the bottom of dress skirts and flounces
on bodices may be edged with narrow
velvet ribbon, on which are sown square
jet beads; the effect is charming. pinkish A
beautiful bodice may be made of
mauve velvet, sewn all over with jet and
amethyst beads. The zouave jackets
now so much in vogue lend themselves
easily to the art of the embroiderer.
Lovely effects are made with gold and
silver cords and tiny gilt sequins. White
jet, pale-yellow and pale-green beads
make charming fringes gowns.—[Once and panels for A

FASHION NOTES.
There are still many smock dresses.
Every shade of gray is fashionable.
Pointed cape collars and rounding
capes are stylish.
Winter ulsters appear in a variety of
attractive guises.
Dark green and bright red mixtures
are much fancied.
A sash of soft nainsook or ribbon is
worn at the waist.
Flowers have superseded feathers as a
trimming for bonnets.
Flowered and striped flounces, make
handsome house wrappers.
Brocaded India silk is much used to
make indoor blouse waists.
Bonnets remain small, with close sides
and tiny old Dutch crowns.
There is less hemstitching and drawn
w'ork used than last season.
The Empire puff is still seen on sleeves
that are otherwise close-fitting.
There is little change this season in
the first dresses worn by children.
Satin slips are preferred for the trans¬
parent gowns now so fashionable.
Box cloth is becoming a fashionable
material for ladies’ jackets and cloaks.
The bell skirt, with a graceful drapery
in front, is very becoming to stout ladies.
Ruchings for the neck are very popu¬
lar. but are rather smaller and narrower.
Pretty and inexpensive evening dresses
for young girls are embroidered nuns’
vailing.
Hats are much more worn than bonnets,
and may be large or small, to suit the
wearer.
Shaded velvet for sie ves and trim¬
ming is the handsomest novelty of the
winter.
Some of the new sleeves are formed of
two or three puffings, and finished with
a deep frilling.
Frills of chiffon in high colors have
one edge worked with white in long
darning stitches.
Even the baby ribbon has colored
edges; the scarlet-edged black is pretty
on children's hats.
For young women the fashionable
silks for evening wear are extremely
delicate in coloring.
Ruffles, puffs and gathered folds of
velvet are stylish edgings for silk and
woolen dress skills.
Golden brown and light reddish violet
shades form one of the striking com¬
binations of the season.
Rather elaborate braid work in soutache
upon the revers, cuffs and collar is
noticed upon many ulsters.
Among the fashionable colors for veils
for the coming season are white, black,
navy, gray, tan and brown.
For simple dresses, simple cashmeres
trimmed with dotted bands embroidered
in black silk are worn by little children.
The chief trimming used on the first
dresses of little children is real Valen¬
ciennes lace or soft, hem-stitched ruffles.
Shaded velvet - sleeves with contrast¬
ing costumes, and plaid velvet sleeves
with blue or green cloth gowns are pop¬
ular.
A corselet of the square Russian shape and
shows four rows of jeweled gimp jeweled
velvet, each row being held by a
clasp.
The Eton jacket prevails, but all kinds
will be worn. The zouave jacket, with
square fronts, are exquisitely hand
braided.
Robin-red is a new color in tailor
cloth, and is pre'ty when combined with
russet brown velvet aud dull gold passe¬
menterie.
For ladies who like flannel bodices in
place of silk or cotton ones, the very
lightest weight of fiaunel is the most
fashionable.
* Poplin forms a pretty, and at present
a fashionable, material for a house gowu,
a sudden fancy having developed itself
for this material.
Yellow remains a favorite color for
fanciful little dresses made of chiffon or
embroidered silk muslin, which is laid
over India silk.
Velvet hats are favored for wear at
any time; they are made to match the
color of the costumes, or in black, laden
with black plumes.
Capes and pelerines continue the order
of the day, and many raineloths and
long garments are finished off with a
single or triple cape.
Sensible petticoats are of fine black
silk alpaca, trimmed with a deep ruffle
and edged with lace. They shed the
dust, aud are suitable for rainy days.
Jackets show tops having a single
small cape, and capes show a small one
at the top, above a very much deeper
oue, or three capes all of the sa i.e size.
Not only are bodices of plain textures
worn with figured skirts, and plain
skirts with patterned bodices, but two
stuffs of one color are likewise employed.
Cuffs woru outside the sleeve are
among the new styles, and arc seen in
lace, linen, and kid. With outing
gowns, the kid cuffs are chosen to match
a corselet of the same.
Eyeless Fish in Boiling Water.
One of the most remarkable discover¬
ies in the shape of a continent peculiar species of
fish ever made on this was that
made at Carson City, Nevada, in 1876.
At that time both the Hale & Norcross
and the Savage mines were down to what
is known as the “ 2,200-foot level.”
When at that depth a subterranean lake
of boiling water was tapped. This depth acci¬ of
dent flooued both mines to a
400 feet. After this water had all been
pumped out except that which had gath¬
ered in basins and in the inaccessible
portions of the works, and when the
water still had a temperature of 128 de¬
grees—nearly scalding hot—many fish queer- taken
looking little blood-red were
out. In appearance they somewhat re¬
sembled the gold fish. They seemed
lively and sportive enough when they
were in their native element—boiling
water—notwithstanding the faqt that
they did not even have rudimentary eyes.
When the fish were taken out of the hot
water and put into buckets of cold
water, for the purpose of being died trans¬
ported to the surface, they as
quickly as a perch or a bass would if
plunged into a kettle of water that was
scalding hot; not only this, but the skin
peeled off exactly as if it had been
boiled.
Eyeless fish are common enough in all
subterranean lakes and rivers, but this is
the ouly case ou record of living fish be¬
ing found in boiling water.—[St. Louis
Physical Exercise.
Dr. Sargent estimates that the pursuit
of outdoor sports is limited to probably
less than one per cent, of our vigorous
young men. Even among the members
of athletic organizations Dr. only Sargent ten per
cent, are really alive. at¬
tributes the increasing lack of interest in
athletics to the growing tendency among
Americans, as a people, excellence to pursue sports in the
to an end. In making
achievement the primary object of ath¬ half
letic exercises they are robbed of
their value in various ways; for instance,
by increasing the expenses of training;
by the devoting of too much time to
practice; by reducing the number of act¬
ive competitors; by relying upon natural
resources rather than cultivated material;
by depriving the non-athletic individual
of incentive to physical exertions; by de¬
priving the exercises of their efficiency
as a means of health. Dr. Sargent holds
that the harmonious development broad¬ of the
physique, and the building up and
ening out of the highest type of manhood
and womanhood ought to offer induce¬
ment enough for each to work.—[New
York News.
“How many people know,” asks the
religious editor of the Buffalo News,
“that the monument that Laban and
Jacob set up near the borders of Canaan
and called -Mizpah,’ or a lookout, was
erected in suspicion rather than love?
The literal meaning was this: ‘The
Lord watch between thee and me when
we are absent one from the other, and
see that you are not tip to some new
trick as soon as my back is turned.’ So
when it is inscribed in an engagement
ring it might mean: ‘The Lord watch
and see that y >u do not flirt when we
are absent one from the other.’ Those
who use the text are sometimes wiser
than they know.’’

The Taxes We Pay.
The Washington Post presents some
interesting tax figures:
For the next two years our government
will spend annually more than $500,000,
000. To pay one year’s expeusts of the
government it will take nearly the com¬
bined wheat and oat crop. Our annual
output of gold, silver, copper, iron, coal,
Petroleum and lead will not foot our tax
bill for twelve months. Nor can we do
it with a year’s product of cotton, wool,
rye, barley, wine, potatoes and tobacco.
The combined capitalization $599,000,000. of One our
national banks is
year’s taxes will nearly swallow it up.
Now, all this is the Federal tax. We
have also to pay city, county and State
tixes. We pretend to be a nation of
plain people, with no aristocracy, no
princes, no standing army aud no expen¬
sive frills, and yet our taxes are more
enormous than those of Austria, Germauy
and Great Britain.

Good Manners at Home*
The presence of good manners is no¬
where more needed or more effective than
in the household, and, perhaps, more
rare. Wherever familiarity exists there
is a tendency to loosen the check upon
selfish conduct which the presence of
strangers involuntarily produces. Many
persons who are kind and courteous in
company are rude and careless with those
whom they love best. made Emerson of says:
“Good manners are up petty
sacrifices,” and certainly nothing and can
more thoroughly secure the harmony
peace of the family circle than the habit
of making small sacrifices, one for anoth¬
er. Children thus learn good manners and
in the best and most natural ways,
habits thus acquired will never leave
them. Courtesy and kindness will never
lose their chann, while all spurious imi¬
tations of them are to be despised.—
