FASHIONS FROM JAPANESE.
Many of Modistes' Latest Ideas Bor
' rowed From Orient.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
Japan seems to have become a rec
ognized authority on fashions as well
as firearms this summer. In the smart
est modes for the warm weather it
is easy to trace Japanese Influence, not
only in color and design of trimmings
and material, but often in the actual
cut of some of the newest garments.
And as the Japanese have been a
nation of artists for more centuries
than we have been a nation at all,
it seems reasonable that they should
have at least a few worth while ideas
in color schemes and decorations for
us.
Perhaps this oriental idea is most
noticeable In the embroidery trimmings
and the very fashionable semiprecious
jewels. Really the loveliest trim
mings of the season are the oriental
embroideries of various sorts. The
smartest shirtwaist suits are of Jap
anese long stitch embroidery, in chry
santhemums or cherry blossoms, or
flights of birds, not two designs are
exactly alike, and all the most ex
, quisite hand work.
Shirtwaists of Japanese wash silk, of
Japanese raw silk, inu and homomen.
as weil as all sorts of fine linen and
cotton crepes, are embroidered in silk
wnen or cotton Japanese design The
dragon, large and small, is used again

Uehtlv , pam Itt;d 1 tt ; d leather, tacked on

of L Pe. Ci- ° f work from the ends
or a Persian scarf.
The very newest summer coats for
cut th,7 l trav “ n * hav e the kimono

and ‘ hc L 'Y ide shapeless sleeves
un and S d re<l body ' They are straight
a tf and u d o''"’ reach to the knees and
re slashed at the sides up about a foot.
The neck is without collar, but has
some sort of oriental band trimming.
th= S >? ltS of materials are used for
, k ‘?? ono coats, American, Japa
nese, Ind.an and every variety of
trimming that comes in flat bands. A
Japanese raw silk coat will be trimmed
most recklessly with brilliant Russian
embroidery a coat of Thibetan cotton
o*,, English lace, American linen with
Philippine lace and plain linen with
homemade cross stitch, which is the
best taste of all.
For lounging robes and jackets the
kimono cut is the most fashionable
you can have and the most comforta
ble of Japanese cheap prints or pretty
American lawns, as you prefer.
Japanese belts and stocks are very
fashionable and you can easily imitate
them with a little embroidery silk and
gold thread and a Japanese scroll or
fan or picture to copy flowers or dra
gons or birds from. There is usually
a touch of gold thread on all the pret
tiest dress accessories. Black or white
satin ribbon makes a good foundation,
or linen or cotton if you want a wash
belt, and no gold.
Naturally all these stuffs and em
broideries, though often cheap enough
to buy, must be washed most care
fully, as they are designed for a na
tion that Was no busy regular wash
day, and the laundry is not considered
in their manufacture.
Their cleansing must be accomplish
ed by gentle methods without the harsh
treatment of the boiler or the wash
board, and also acid cleaning agencies
must be avoided where the Oriental
colors are to be held in bondage.
Probably the all-around surest, as
well as easiest, method Is to add a
little pure borax water, then washing
in hot but not boiling water, washing
white also in the solution having a
couple of teaspoonfuls of borax. Rub
lightly through the hands, wring as
dry as possible in the hands and put
out in the shade where there Is, If pos
sible. a fresh breeze. It Is very bad
for delicate colors to dry in the sun.
It is apt to mean fading, no matter
how cfareful the laundry process his
been. Colored embroideries should al
ways be ironed on the wrong side, and
they look better if ironed before they
are absolutely dry, instead of being
allowed to dry in a lot of wrinkles
and then sprinkled unevenly.
This fad for Japanese effects adds
a most interesting and picturesque fea
ture to a Wardrobe, and is not at all
expensive to achieve if one lives near
a city or is at all clever at Imitating
colors and designs with needle or
paint brush.
SPEAKING COBRA IN INDIA.
From the Amrita Bazar Patrika.
B. L. Varma, teacher. High School,
Bundi, (Rajputana,) sends the follow
ing extraordinary tale:
“There is a celebrated temple of
'Chaturbhuj,' at Bundi, in the very
center of the city, and Immediate
ly behind It is a little temple of Nar
badeshwar. On June 6, at about 9
p. m., the priest of the temple, after
performing puja, as usual, was return
ing home, -when on the steps of the
temple his foot trampled a snake,
which bit him on the foot. The priest
raised a cry, and soon a crowd as
sembled; some of the men saw that
it was a cobra, but could not man
age to kill it. The priest was carried
home by two or three men. On the
way the leg of the priest was tight
ly bound by a cord above the ankle
to prevent the circulation of the pois
on. On reaching home he fell Into
a swoon, a trance like a sleep -which
generally follows the bits of a snake.
“After a while he opened his eyes,
sat up on his bed, and uttered these
ominous words: 'Don't mtnd, don’t
be sorry, and do not try to procure
medicine, or anything else; he shall
not die, I shall not take his life, Th®
fault 4s neither his nor mine. It was
done by him -unconsciously, and by
me In rage. He, when descending the
steps, trampled my head, which bruis
ed my head and the left eye as well.
I. 4n my pain and fury, bit him, but
have no mind to take his life.’ Hav
ing said so far. he swooned again and

fell down on his bed. His mother,
in the most supplicating manner,
wanted to know something more about
the snake, and requested him very
submissively. Then again he sat on
his bed and resumed his talk: 'I
was a banker and had a shop In the
city. X died nearly a hundred years
ago, and since then I am in the form
of a snake. I have taken my abode
in a crevice of Biyas Boori, (a reser
voir,) In the vicinity of the temple
of the "Narbadeshwar.” I live upon
frogs and insects, which are found In
abundance In the Boori. My name,
when a man and a banker, was Udai
chand, and so and so are my descen
dants,’ (here he mentioned the names
of two -bankers, at present shopkeep
ers in the market.)
“ ‘I am at present in a crevice of the
Boori, and request you to warm my
head and drench me in milk 2-3 days,
because so long I shall not be able
to go out owing to pain in my head
and the eye.' Without losing a mo
ment, the mother, accompanied by two
others, with torches in hand, went to
the Boori. To their surprise they found
a cobra lying in a crevice just above
the surface of the water.
"It was about 11 p. m. They procured
milk and placed it in a pot before the
crevice. The snake came nearly a foot
outward and drank the milk to the last
drop. On coming back to the house
they said before the priest, who was
still lying senseless, that they could
not warm the head of him in the form
of a snake, and that they would con
tinue drenching mUk as ordered. Then
the priest again opened his eyes and
replied: ‘lf you cannot warm my own
head, please warm the head of the
priest I have bitten; tt shall relieve
my pain somewhat, at least.’ Then
the mother promised to warm his
head and requested him to grant the
life of her son. He granted her request
and left him forever. When the bank
ers, whose names he had given as his
descendants, were asked about the
name, they corroborated the fact by
saying that indeed their great grand
father was of the name of Udaichand.
Now the priest is quite well, without
any symptoms of venom of snakebite
in him.”
CROW CAN TALK LIKE A MAN.
From the New York Herald.
Washington, Aug. 27.—A. B. Woods,
ornithologist of the Smithsonian Insti
tution, is back in Washington after an
absence of several weeks, and, in con
sequence, Jack, Mr. Woods’ pet crow
and champion talking bird of -the Dis
trict, is in Jubilation.
Jack spent the period of his master s
absence with a family In the north
eastern part of the city; but he had
not received any advances of friend
ship made to him, indulged In few re
marks, and, in fact, sulked all the
time. As soon as he heard Mr. Woods'
voice at the door of the house, how
ever, Jack's demeanor became meta
morphosed. His drooping feathers be
came erect, his black eyes glistened
and he sprang to the bars of his cage
and manifested every sign of Intense
excitement.
“Hello. Jack! Hullo, Woods! hullo!
hullo! hullo; ha! ha! ha!” were his ex
clamations as he danced around the
cage In -an ecstasy of enjoyment. At
sight of his master Jack's gladness
knew no bounds. Mr. Woods had to
take him out of his cage.
"I wouldn’t sell that bird,” exclaim
ed Jack’s delighted owner, “for *IOO,-
000!”
Jack is a paragon among crows. He
•hares his master’s faculty of being
able to imitate the cries of all other
birds In the vicinity of the District. To
hear Mr. Woods reproduce the call* of
chickens, turkeys, sparrows, whip
poor-wills, robins and others and hear
Jack do the same, and to hear the
bird whose natural cries are thus mim
icked respond to both decedvors Is re
markable. This faculty In the man is
mor# remarkable than It is In the crow,
the throat of which, like those of par
rots and other talking birds, is adapt
ed by nature for this purpose Mr.
Woods will teff Tfeu that h* first began
to eswnclse this power of imitating ths
calls of birds when he was a boy on a
farm.
“It name natural to me,” he says,
“and I thought nothing about ther#
being anything extraordinary in It un

method for the interchange of thought
or feeling is a language; but the birds
have a systematized series of sounds
which convey definite ideas. They
have their muting or love language, an
eloquent gamut of sounds, each of
which proclaims and expresses Ideas
of endearment. They have their calls
of alarm —one cry in the case of the
chicken, for Instance, signifying to her
young the apploach of danger from
overhead, the appearance of a chicken
hawk; perhaps another denoting that
an enemy Is approaching In a certain
direction on the ground; another, call
ing to the young chickens to take
refuge underneath her wings. These
rails are all distinct, and may be Imi
tated so as to be responded to, for a
time at least, until the chicks find they
are being deceived.
A Thonsnnil Franc Nats.
From the Paris Messenger.
A lady passing down the Rue Riche
lieu had the misfortune to lose a pock
et book containing, among other valua
bles, a 1,0000 franc note. The pocket
book was picked up by a chair mender
named Itanaud. who lives at Mon
treaux; and he placed It very carefully
in his pocket and proceeded home. It
Is not oft*n that a chair mender has
occasion to change a note for that
amount, and Renaud, recognizing the
Impossibility of turning it "Into gold
without detection, agreed with a friend
to do the business for the consideration
of 100 francs. .
This friend. Luclen Mathern. also a
chair mender, was in his turn filled
with apprehension. The difficulty was
solved by th® aid of a horticulturist,
named Simonnet. who kindly consented
to buy himself a hors® for 300 francs
and return th® change. Renaud thus
became richer by 600 francs. All might I
then have gone well if, two days later, I
it had not been discovered that the'
horse had b®n stolen from a dealer
at Meaux. This led to the arrest of,
the trio, and later In the day the police
put their hands on the horse thieves.
