Tint California raisin Inn reached such
perfection that it is now able to compete
successfully with the finest of the Spanish
fruit. The loose native Muscatel is now
packed by machinery, which has enabled
the packer (■> compete- with the low
priced manual labor of Spain. The
“stquin power, temmer” stemsand divides
the fruit into three grades at the nite of
100,(100 pounds a day, with tlt<-a-distance
of about twenty inmi. This rapidity of
operation would surprise the Spanish
puckers with their primitive methods of
stemming by hand. To this is added
a packin',' machine, which packs the
stemmed raisins in boxes of twenty
pounds weight each.
A garden of k< ep-ak s is described by
Grant Allen. The orange lilies came
from Canada, the bulbs being given by a
Canadian botanist. The spider orchids
were dug up by a classically-minded
friend from the the. Monte
Testoccio at Rome. The Himalayan
strawberry that overruns th beds ar
rived in a letter ns n specimen for identi
fication. The lobelia in the hanging
basket by the jasmine coveted porch was
wetted once by the thick, white spray of
Montmorenci. The snowdrops and cro
cuses, the hyacinths and nxifrages, bring
back bright* days in Swit -ci la.id or Prov
ence, on Welsh hillsides, or among the
wild and beautiful Mas a husetts up
lands.

NEWS AM) NOTES FOB WOMEN.
Very pretty are the narrow stripox, two
or three incites apart.
Plu h velvets and brocaded velvets are
seen in stylish wraps.
I Felt is to be less stylish than beaver
' plush for hats this season.
Patti has a duplicate in paste of every
1 precious stone she possesses.
Some stylish house dresses have lace
1 in combination with fancy wools.
Georgia started, built and conducted
' the first woman’s college in the world.
I'mll hats of silk beaver plush are worn
' by young ladies with their costumes.
Unique fashions in outer garments
were never more in favor than at present.
Sleeves tucked with inch wide tucks
, ate seen on little girls’ dresses of fiae
! work.
Long garments heavily braided are
among the most elegant of this season’s
novelties.
The full puffed or mutton leg sleeves
are still very stylish on little girls’ tine
wo'den costumes.
A pretty fashion has sprung up during
the past season of wearing the corsage
bouquet tucked into the velvet, bodice.
f lowered fabrics bid fair to be gen
- orally worn and are in wools, silks and
satins, all in beautiful designs and col
orings.
Angel sleeves are very generally seen
on the graceful long costume mantles
which are among the most stylish things
shown this season.
The Gretchen sleeve is more becoming
than the mutton leg and more artistic
ami is very pretty on soft woolen mate
rials for house wear.
Pelts being in vogue the belt buckle
is naturally a thing of beauty and many
pretty deigns tire seen. Some of them
in-' beautifully jeweled.
There is a fanay for large effects in
trimmings of costumes and velvet plush
and wide braids are used as panels with
; marked contrast in colors.
Marie Augustin Despcissis, of London,
has patented a devise for creating a
regular and even draught through the
tubes and flues of steam boilers.
There were lady doctors in Japan long
before the discovery of America. In 717
Japanese nuns attended the sick and pre
scribed for the. Mikado himself.
Very low crowned bonnets have ap
peared at last, but it is safe to assert that
it will take fully two seasons and per
haps more to make them general.
Whole dresses of black or colored
Lyons velvets will be much worn this
winter, ami the handsome new plushes
will also be used in the same way.
The polonaise is now made even more
graceful and becoming than ever, and is
by far the most hygienic of garments,
since no pressure conies on the waist.
Gloves of light gray and mastic kind,
with the seams lapped, and finished
about the wrist witii a strip of black
leather, and having several rows of black
stitching are quite the newest.
There is a great variety in the sleeves
worn this season, and many styles are of
antique pattern, copying Oriental,
Turkish and Italian fashions as well as
those of the Elizabethan period.
Matching a suit entire from head to
foot—dress, wrap, hat, gloves, shoes and
stockings—is again to be the mode,
though considerable opposition lias been
made against this expensive fashion.
The barbaric idea of piercing the lobe
of the car for the insertion of a jewel is
no longer considered desirable, and-thc
fashion of wearing earrings will probably
be a thingof the past before many years.
The range of colors allowable in
tasloi-imide street costumes is somewhat
limited. It includes all the grays, Lon
don smoke, three or four dark greens,
Gobeline blue, and a new and peculiar
crimson.
Dress skirts now appealing have the
appearance of ungored, full gathered
-skirts. They arc, in fact, just that (the
front and sometimes the side breadths
being slightly gored), mounted on well
gored foundation skirts.
Mrs. l.a Greer, Topeka's female law
yer, has succeeded in building up a good
paying practice. She is a first-rate
speaker and captures the average juror
without much effort. Mrs. La Greer is
abut thirty five years of age and rather
good looking.
There is a fancy for making only that
sort of fancy work which is of it lasting
nature, since it has been found that it is
a w«ste of labor to make too elaborate
attempts on frail fabrics. Now the
I handiwork must needs be lasting enough
' for an heirloom.

We take pleasure in calling your
attention to a remedy so long needed
in carrying children safely through
the critical stage of teething. It is an
incalculable blessing to mother and
child. If you are disturbed at night
w ith a sick, fretful, teething child, use
Pitts’ Carminative, it will give instant
relief, and regulate the bowels, and
make teething safe and easy. It will
cure Dysentery and Diarrhoea. Pitts
Carminative is an instant relief for
colic of infants. It will promote di
gestion, give tone and energy to the
stomach and bowels. The sick, puny,
suffering child will soon become the
fat and frolicing joy of the household.
It is very pleasant to the taste and
only costs 25 cents jer bottle. Sold
by druggists.

Certain Chicken Cholera Cure.
Eight years of careful experiment and pains
taking research have resulted in the discovery
of an infallible specific for the cure and pre
vention of that most fatal and dreaded enemy
of the feathered tribe—Cholera. After the
fullest and fairest tests possible, in which everv
claim for the remedy was fully substantiated,
the remedy was placed upon the market, and
everywhere a single trial has been all that was
inquired to prove it a complete success. The
aiructions for its use arc plain and simple, and
the cost of the remedy so small that the saving
of a single fowl will repay th( expense. Its
effect is almost magical. If the r< medy is
given as directed, the course of the disease is
stopped at once. Given occasionally a * a pre
ventive, there need be no fear of Cholera,
which annually kills more fowls than all other
diseases combined. It is true to name, a Cer
tain Cure for Chicken Cholera. No poultry
raiser or farmer can afford to be without it. It
will do all that is claimed for it. Read the fol
lowing testimonial :
STATE OF GEORGIA.
Department of Agriculture.
Atlanta, Ga.. March 19, 1887
To the Public: The high character of the
testimonials produced by Mr. Dodge, together
with his well known reputation for truth and
veracity, afford convincing evidence of the
high value of the Chicken Cholera Cure ho is
now offering upon the market. If I wore en
gagedin the business, I would procure a bot
tle of his medicine, little doubting the success
that would attend its administration.
Yours truly,
.LT. HENDERSON,
Com’r of Agriculture.
