SUNDAY MORNING. A Fratlil. Tbere was a little kit. And she coulda’t read a bit. But she chewed my daddy’s paper every day. And she said, with little mews, “I’m devouring the news,” But I said, “You can't deceive me with your play." * Ida. Ida is a pretty little yellow-haired girl, who used to live across the street from May’s house. Ida was out of doors a great deal, but was always bound to go bare-headed. In warm weather, with the burning sun beating hither, there she was, her head uucov- In pretty cold weather, too, she seen in the same state, would start her out with hat or hood, but in a little while she would drop it off, perhaps in a neigh bor’s yard, perhaps in her own, and she would not have it on again all day. She had a sister, a little older, named Louise, also a pretty girl, but Louise was jealous of Ida when May was around, and when all of them were at May s house, Louise would send Ida home, and the little bare head would be seen out in the yard again, while May and Louise played on together. Sometimes May’s papa would insist on Ida’s staying and the little lady would be happy to remain and play with the other, slightly larger, girls. This was some time ago. Now. 1 trust Louise is glad always to have Ida in her games, at home, or when they visit with some neighbor’s little girl.—Brooklyn Eagle. Her Father’* Profemion. Jean was four years old when she began to go to kindergarten. The first day she had a beautiful time, and when she got home at night she announced proudly that “tomorrow teacher wants us to tell our whole names, our whole age and what our fathers do.” Mother proceeded to instruct her lit tle daughter on these points, and be fore long Jean could rattle off quite proudly: "My name is Joan Anderson Abbott. I am four years and three months old. and my father is a produce and com mission merchant. She said R over to herself all the way to school, but when she was really standing before the teachqr somehow it did not seem so easy. The teachev asked each little girl in turn, and they answered glibly, hut as it came to Jean's turn a great fear came over her. She could not remember what her father’s business was. Finally, the teacher asked Marjorie, who stood just beside Jean. Marjorie answered rapidly enough: “My name is Marjorid Roife Bidwell. I am five years and one month old and my father is professor of history in Harvard." Her answer gave Jean an inspira tion. If Marjorie’s father w-as a pro fessor, of course, her father was a pro fessor, too, and he had eggs and but- store; she knew that, so '"‘when the ‘tf&cher asked her the ques tion. she roplied'Trflin'Ptly : “Mv name is JeanAf.tlg^®®' l Abbott. 1 am four years and three rBRBiJ| s °)‘)- and my father is a professor of and eggs!”—New Y’ork Tribune. Erlc’l Knclrte Ridff. Eric stood on the garden side of the gate, watching the men who were mending the road. Behind him the flowers nodded and the fruit trees rus tled in the breeze, but Eric did not care about them. Two men were busy sweeping water over the stones, and one was driving the engine. At last the engine stop ped just in front of the gate; and the driver climbed down, looking very red and hot. “I say, Joe, this is warm work,” he cried, “I’m glad we’ve finished for today.” "Are you going away?" asked Eric, timidly. ‘Tm so sorry!” The driver turned to him. “Are you fond of engines, little mas ter'.' “Yes. I’m going to be an engine man when I grow up," answered Eric. “Only I shall drive a train, not a roll er.” “I’d rather have my own old engine,” said the driver. < "I suppose it’s a matter of taste,” said the little boy, so gravely that tliey all laughed. “Welh look here, little master,” said the driver, “If you like, I will give you a ride on my engine down to the bottom o- the road.” Eric's eyes sparkled. “Oh, thank you ever so much!” he cried; "but I must ask mother first.” The man ryxided; and Eric bounded away, soon! ! eturning, followed by mother herself. The driver politely touched his cap. “Bless you, no, ma'am; there’s no danger,” he saiu in answer to her questions. “I wouldn’t take him if there was.” “Very well,” said mother, “just a short ride.” So Eric was lifted up and allowed to pull the lever which started the en gine, and they went puffing down the road, mother watching rather anxious ly from the gate. But, when Eric ran back, he was wild with delight. “Oh, it was lovely, mother! And we had to stop to let the milkman’s horse go by. The horse didn’t like the ndie,” he said. Then, as the men came slowly up the road on the way home, looking very hot, he whispered something l his mother. She nodded, and he ran off down the garden. Hastily picking three rhu barb leaves, he filled them with cur rants, and, bringing them carefully back, gave them to the men. “But we didn’t take you for a ride, little master. It was our mates here, not us at all,” said Joe, when his turn came. The little boy looked puzzled. Th,en he saij, brightly,— “No, because you hadn’t an engine; but if you had you would, wouldn't you?" The men laughed and thanked him: and, by the way those currants disap peared, they must have been very good—Little Folks. Pul ter tl i**. Butterflies, because of their conspic uousness and beauty and their occur rence almost everywhere, furnish an attractive and ready means for study ing the many curious and providential ways in which nature provides for her creatures. Collecting butterflies is an interest ing pursuit, and. besides, may become a profitable pastime. The most ordi nary collections often sell for fair prices, while those that are more elab orate, especially if they follow out some scheme, as a collection to indi cate sleeping or feeding habits, or representing the varying daily or sea sonal peculiarities of the insects, will be very valuable, often running up in the them-ar-ds of dollars. The apparatus necessary for collect ing and arranging these winged beau ties is the simplest , consisting of a few articles. The first thing is the means of capturing. Capturing is not done by hand, but by means of a net which can be made from a small hoop at tached to the end of an old bfcom handle. The body of the net is made of mssquito netting and should bo about two feet deep if the hoop is a foot in diameter. With a little prac tice one can become skilled in hand ling the net and may catch butterfles rapidly and without in any way injur ing their delicate wings. In approaching the insect it is well to wait until it has alighted and to bring the net close to it as slowly as possible, and keep it near the ground and out of sight. When very close to the prey a sudden stroke followed by a quick backward movement will bag the butterfly and fold the net over so that it cannot escape. Never touch the wings With the fingers in re moving the insect. Carefully insert the killing bottle and allow the butter fly to flutter into the bottle, and the insertion of the cork will hold it a prisoner. The killing bottle should be a wide mouthed bottle into which the butter fly can pass without injury to the wings. In the bottom should be placed securely by means of shellac a small piece of cotton which is wet with ben zine or common gasoline. The vapors from these substances produce an easy and pai stupor, ending in death. Do not be hasty in removing the but terfly after it has gone to sleep, be cause the fresh air often revives it. After the insects arc captured and killed they are ready to be pinned and set. For pinning always use insect pins, which are much thinner than common pins, and will not rust. They cost five cents a hundred. A butterfly should be pinned through the middle of the thorax, and in snch a way that, the body is at right an gles to the pin. The thorax is betw-een the head and the point where the ■swings join the body. A-ffc r the insect is properly pinned, it is rcadvHtJr setting, and for the proc ess a setting ”l f ji s necessary. The setting board is a p^aT^L,fi ;l, board with numbers of holes large emJHgh to take the head of the pin. The insecMsJaid on the board back down, with the heali of the pin in the hole. The wings -are then spread and pinned down to the board in such a way a to show all that is possible of their surface. The fore wings should be pulJed for ward so far that their hind edges may be in the. same straight line, and the hind wings brought to such a positic* as to leave about the same gap next to the body as to the front wings. In pull ing these wings forward a pin may be used, inserting it just behind the strong vein or rib, which is piain, and thus avoiding the danger of tearing. After the wings are pinned dow-n in the proper position it is a good plan to lay strips of paper over them to hold them straight, and after these strips are pinned dow-n remove the pins in the wings, for if the pins are left in the wings until they arp Jry itbe holes they have made will be eas ily seen. After a very little practice this work is readily done, and no little taste and skill can be shown in arranging the wings to display the full beauty of the specimen. After the wings are thor oughly dry, which takes from three or four days to a week, the insects are ready to be placed in th<^ collec tion. A good and serviceable storage qpse can be made from an old shirt box. When the specimen is placed in the collection case it is a good plan to write the date and locality of cap ture of every specimen and pin this below it, thereby adding value to the collection. —San Francisco Chronicle.

One ol the prettiest of the newest designs in jewelry which is now in vogue in Londou is a chatelaine watch hanging from a chain of brilliants. The watch has a large dial and a rim like a cable. It is suspended from double chins with bow knot pins. Half way down a crosspiece of bril liants separates the chains about an inch and a haUj aprt, but they swing agai-wet the bow knot and ring of the watch. A necklet consisting of trefoils of pearls, uepenuiug at intervals from a 1 gold braidlike chain, is finished with ; twT> pendants in the form of diamond ■ drops. I)al>i‘y Hit of Ncckwmr. A certain pretty girl has made for herself one of the prettiest stock col lars! And it is one which any girl who is at all clever with her needle might easily copy. The material used is white Liberty satin, the cut (that, should go without saying) is perfec tion. Around the top are two rows of French dots in black. Then comes a | row of ribbon, a dainty pink baby rib ! bon, edged with black, just below this ! are two rows oi the black dots, then another row of ribbon, and another | double row of the dots, that is three 1 double rows of dots and two of rib j bon. Tile whole comes little below I the middle of the stock, it is suffi ciently dressy, but better yet it is dainty, und that is the great quality in neckwear. Once one has achieved both daintiness and becomingness, the problem is solved. Neck OMI II 111 (Ml tM. Neck ornaments are particularly pretty. The flat plaited white and col ored mousseline boas more resemble shoulder fichus, being invariably bor dered with mousseline roses or velvet rose leaves applique at the edge of the mousseline kilting. Ends of black rib bon velvet or strands of jet beads finish the fronts. Others of tulle, forming ruches turning down from the hair, are embellished by long pompa dour silk stole ends trimmed with large steel buttons. Effective et cet eras are always an important item on a Parisian toilet, and some of the lat est cravats and boas are particularly attractive this season. Spotted kilted white mousseline trimmed with lat e, pompadour ribbon latticed on net, col ored bebe ribbon velvet gathered up into rosettes in front of neckbands and embroidered lawn and linon soie collarettes are among the most popu lar accessories. Interpretlug llhlit** Wnll*. Poor baby lias only one method of making her wants known —namely, by her cry, and it takes some little prac tice to -..stinguish between the cry that merely says, “Please, I'm so hun gry!" the temper cry of pain or ill ness. I Til) baby is four or five months old ! she doesn’t shed tears, so when her little temper is very much upset she ]~*££ies furiously and in an unreasoning ! BOrfffff- way. When sfiß-ifi. merely hungiy. the cry is still imt - somewhat, hoarse, too. and accoiffpa{>ied by sun dry grunts. If baby is sleepy; -the cry Rounds as if she were on the verglNtlf the land of dreams, whereas u she has a stomach ache, she generally draws her poor little knees up and screams violently, refusing for some time to be pacified. Crying is always disheartening to those who hear it, hut if baby does not cry at ail it is 4 very bad sign in deed, though, on the other hand, many babies are allowed to cry unneces sarily, and instead of at the first, wail cramming a comfort into baby's mouth or violently jogging him, listen to the cry and discover by the character thereof if it’s a pin that’s offending, if baby is ill or uncomfortable or hun gry and then remedy the cause. Switfll* to tlio Bn*itlvft. To sensitive natures certain per fumes act like poison upon the emo tions and health. The ancients recog nized the medical virtues, of perfumes, and one Latin writer ha.< put on record almost a hundred perfume remedies for various diseases. Among these remedies violets figure more frequent ly than any other flower, so possibly the ever-present furore for violet per fume has benefited the nerves of the sex. Lavender is aiso remarkably soothing to the nerves, and the laven der-scented sheets of our grandmoth ers were not only deliciously fragrant, but were excellent sieep promoters. A victim whose supersensitive na ture is .affected by perfumes is Kube lik, the violinist. One who knows him well said recently that “the perfume of violets makes him gay, and he takes down his violin and plays lively airs. If heliotrope is in the room he unconsciously becomes romantic, and under its influence reads and com poses poetry, and falls into raptures over antique jewels and vestments. Love is then a pet theme of his. If he wears a tube rose he immediately becomes sad and melancholy, and searches for tragic books and plays, dons dark clotnes and performs sad music on his violin." A famous judge remarked to an interviewer his ab horrence of the mingling ot scents women in court use on their handker chiefs, and declared that they sent him home at night after a “fashion able” ease a prey to the very worst of headaches. —New York Commercial Advertiser. m trt Car. of l ii!",*r Nall*. ’-Soothing betrays the careless woman sooner than her nails, and nothing shows refinement better than the same, possessions. Hands with beautiful nails always please, and the eye dwells on them with a peculiar satisfaction, for in a sense, nails are veritable jew vkls which deeprate the lingers even performing the nails great of fitjY-that of protection. may be classed as gems, in deed,Mpcause they haW the formation of jeVW ls - being composed of flint, silica, *ne and mineral' stuffs. r t\e cunning miners) work ai out fmger^N n<ls is all/-elded pgether and made, a measure, elastic Uf the power of gwjhin.

Oatmeal is ope Yof the best of these foods good lor nSailmaking and hair forming alike. \ The nails become impoverished, Chalky, liable to break, through'' de ficiency of gelatin and excess of lime deposits. Anything that interferes with the health of the whole body will interfere with the shining appearance of the nails at once. Nails are really a kind of skin. They are skin formations, being merely ar. altered kind of cuticle. Small half moons show at the ends of the nails where the skin proper leaves off and the horny- protection begins. These white curves are by some called new nails. They are, in fact, the earliest portion of nail growth, being the skin in its changed form, where the cells mass together in anew way, multi plying rapidly and beginning to se cret e much mineral matter from the blood that circulates within their sub stance. From the edge of the nail new growth pushes onward until the whole finger end is duly protected. The dainty nail is laid on a very sensitive skin bed. which also gives it additions. The growth is marly twice as rapid in summer as it is in winter in ail peo ple. It is very easy to keep the nails In good trim. Less than five minutes allowed them regularly each day- will be all that is required. They need weekly cutting with a pair of proper nail scissors, and the cutting should exactly follow the outline of the fin ger ends. A piece of lemon used once or twice a week is nearly a necessity if nails are to be kept aright. The acid acts on the nail substance with a wonder ful effect of polishing, and it softens the skin marvelously that is apt to drag itself forward over the shining nail surface. Any dirt about the nail, any stain of ink or fruit, the lemon will dispose of at once, dissolving and decomposing the annoying marks as nothing else will. A little oil rubbed over each nail after the lemon treatment continues the polishing process, nourishes the nail and skin, eradicates the last lin gering atom of suspicious marks. A little wad of soft flanni.l is used when applying the oil. After the oil the hands are laved in soft water, wiped and the nail polishing continued with a tiny nit of chamois leather. Violet powder or fine chalk on the chamois Is an aid to grea: success. Bruslhing rather roughens the nails and should be avoided.—Washington Star. Pointed ginlfcs are gaining more favor as the season ~&*}yanees. The revival of big sleeveS-Jias ren dered canes a necessity. Narrow chain bracelets set with dif ferent color stones are good style. Charming evening bodices suitable for young girls are of tucked white chiffon with real Maltese collars. The handsomest of the new combs of tortoise-shell and amber are embel lished with small pearls and diamonds. The tendency of new models is to make women look as broad as possible across the shoulders and very small at the waist. For trimming linen lawn dresses, Parisian modistes and tailors are ef fectively employed iinen passe menterie in soft ecru shades. One inch in the baek graduating to three quarters of an inch in the front, is a good width for a belt; or one and a half inches in the back to one inch in the front. The lace trimmings of some of the more beautiful and elaborate of the new cloaks are often made up over cloth of gold. Occasionally an ap plique of lace flowers eonstitues the trimming. Pretty things in the way of fine lawn stole stocks have the stock of the plain lawn, with the hemstitched top turned over after the fashion of a top collar. The two stole ends fastened to the lower edge of the collar are of fine embroidery and are plaited. In the centre of each are three little lace buttons. The turnover edge has a very narrow hem or one a quarter of an inch wide. (ZjkQ , i&jif FeR \ Pretty Bed Cover.

Then cover the holder in the ordinary way, except that on the top two thick nesses of material should be put in stead of one. Sew all round the edge; then slit the top upper covering across the centre, and bind the edge of the slit. This forms a pocket on each side, into which one’s thumb and fingers are slipped. To Hide the Mantel Piece. The old-fashioned white marble mantel piece is now considered so ob jectionable and so out of keeping with modern furnishings that many novel expedients for alteration are being tried where the expense of anew mantel is not desired. One is to plas ter it all over and finish in a Vene tian red where this will harmoniza witli the woodwork. When very care fully done this may be ruled off to imitate bricks or titles. Another is to coat it over with plaster of paris and then color it to harmonize with the woodwork of the room. The best scheme of all, however, is to have a wooden cover built to fit. right over the mantel, with bookshelves down each side of a fire-place and a shelf to cover the marble mantel shelf. Mixed Mustard for Cold Meats — Cream two level teaspoonfuls of but ter and one tablespoonl'ul of sugar; add two tablespoonfuls of mustard mixed with one tablespoonful of sail; beat one egg until thick and beat it into the creamed mixture; heat half a cup of vinegar, and when boiling add it to the mixture; stand the bowl over boiling water and stir until it thickens a little.

Cream of Chee6e Soup—This soup may be made with ail milk, but is nicer if part white stock be used.

Athletic Training fer Soldiers, SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY. The varying color of vacuum con taining krypton, seen by some as lilac and by others as green, is explained by Professor W. Ramsay to depend on the size of the yellow spot of the re tina. The first installation of wireless tele phone apparatus for use through the medium of water will be that for com munication between Charleston, S. C., and the adjacent chain of islands. To convert a peat bog into electric ity seems at first sight nothing short ol a miracle. But it is being seriously contemplated in Ireland. The scheme proposes the construction of a gener ation station close to the bogs, which would supply the needful fuel. The electricity would th,en be transmitted over -Vi wide area of country wherever It’ could be best utilized. It is also suggested it should be used for loco motive power over a network of light railways. A connection between thunderstorms and the moon’s phases is now claimed by meteorologists. Some months ago a greater frequency of such storms at new moon than at full moon was no ticed in the records at Greenwich for 13 years, and from other inquiry it appears that Madrid observations for 20 years give similar evidence. The Spanish records show 29 percent oi the thunderstorms near new moon, 22.8 near first quarter. 21.8 near fall moon, and 26.4 near last quarter. The prominence volcanic forces have had in all time and in ail places is well illustrated in a recent paper by Professor J. W. Gregory, present ed to the Royal Society of Victoria. The author gives an account of (he geology of Mt. Macedon. an isolated mountain ridge, which, though 41) miles distant, is one of the most con spicuous features in the views from Melbourne. It consists of a volcanic pile resting on Ordovician rocks. The igneous outbursts may have com menced in late Cretaceous times, but there is no certain proof. The moun tain. however, probably marks the be ginning of the great period of vol canic activity of which the last erup tions built up still existing craters. gjo\of which records are preserved .TjLfhe legends of the Victorian alor igtA^s.

What, is said to be the largest auto mobile in the world, and the largest combined harvester, as well, is now at work on a big ranch in central Califor nia, where it is being used in cutting 40,000 acres of barley. The big ma chine consists of a traction engine, capable of handling 75 tons, and which takes the place of 60 horses, a header or mowing machine, which cuts a swath 36 feet, and a threshing machine all complete. The threshing machine and header are run by a 30 horse-power engine, entirely separate from the traction machine, save that they both get steam from the same boiler. The apparatus moves over the ground at different speeds, according to the thickness of the crop, while all the time the header and thresher are going at full speed, whether the grain be thick or thin. The average speed made is three and a half miles an hour and 100 acres a day can be threshed by the machine. The drive wheels of this monster traction engine are eight feet in diam eter and have tires 48 inches wide, on which are ridges an inch and a half high. Eight men are employed on the thresher. Half a minute after the header Marts to work the threshed grain begins to fall into the sacks on tIT?’-'.other side from where it is cut, while tilth-straw falls into a cart behind. The head's atT -carried away from the header by a draper,- or moving belt, 48 inches wide. They are car ried through a colander, which breaks the beard from the barley and shells It at the same time, then by a narrow belt through two cleaners and finally to a bin, from which it ks sacked. The sacks are sewed and set aside as fast as filled. When 12 sacks have been filled they are allowed to slide off the cart on which they are stacked to the ground. Likewise when the straw cart is full it is dumped. This giant automobile is 66 feet long and half as wide, weighing over a hundred tom?. It uses oil as fuel, ne cessitating the use of four horses fw haul oil and- the water for the boiler as it travels around large aereas. Fr*h Air. Fresh air contains about three parts of carbonic acid in 10,000. respired air about 441 parts, and about five parts will cause the air of a room to become “close.” It’s all right to take things as they come, but it’s better to go after them.
