I WOMAN'S" WORLD? - PLEASANT LITERATURE FOR FEMIM.VE READERS. EAHEFOOTED SCOTCH LASSIES. In the rural parts of Scotland the young women go barefooted most of the year. On Sundays these buxom damsels may be seen proceeding to church clmnc i n anrl fillip fitnflr ings hung properly over their arms, i When they reach the churchyard they sit down on the grass and with more ease than modesty proceed to don their hosen and shoon, for it wou'.d be regarded quite improper to enter the kirk without those articles of attire properly disposed. ?

The Queen of Roumania, when in London, ordered six Irish-poplin gowns, choosing one of blush-rose pink, one of mignonette-green, a third of dove-gray, l and for evening wear the Queen selected a cream-whitc poplin of exquisitely rich silken finish, brocaded with devices of Virginia creeper in autumn livery of green aud gold. Another cream gown was figured with pale gold ostrichfeather patterns, and a white brocaded poplin interwoven with silver Marguerites. finished the list.?New York I'osi. FEET-DECORATED "WOMEN. The Soudanese women are a curiosity. The hair is braided up into hundreds of little plaits, so small as to be mere strings. These braids have been soaked in castor oil and rubbed in dust until in t nlaees thev are nerfectlv solid. In the middle of the forehead dangle short strings of beads holding a fancy gold pendant, and in the nostrils a large ring. Around the neclc are strings of onyx ? beads, as well as long strings of polished, pebbles and amber interspersed with gay beads. Of bracelets there are several of coarse dark horn upon one arm; upon the other the massive silver work peculiar to the Soudau. Thev wear wrapped around them a black shawl, and their feet arc decorated with auklets.?Nexc York Journal. CIRCASSIAN WOMEN* SOT BEAUTIFUL. Another of the idols of the past has been shattered. J. Guthrie "Watson, an Englishman, denies the beauty of Circassian women. They have long been traditionally the most beautiful women of the world, but their beauty, he declared from long acquaintance with their land, to be only for the native eye. "What are called Circassian beauties are to be fouud not far from Batoura, in the small towns and villages, and in the north of the Caucasus, but they are not beauties at all, and nine men out of teu would travel through those districts without noticing them. They are mostly poor peasant girls. They have lovely eyes but without expression. Up to the age of fourteen they have Dice features, but after that age they become very coarse looking.?Chicago Times. I now A GIRL COILS HER HAIR. I \ It is an amusing thing to sec a girl coil her hair." She piles it high on her crown W as she can build or hang3 it low in her neck, the loose ends straying over her shoulders. She is a young person of character; she knows no indecision; this stand or that must be taken; the middle course 6he cannot endure. It is only the rare girl who makes herself pretty, for hair nowadays commonly looks a3 if it were weeks since it had seen brush or comb. The very low kuots are worst in this particular, for they fray out almost with the movement of the lips or the turning of the eyes. Nevertheless, for curly locks they arc very pretty when a girl is young enough and picturesque enough i to stand such framing of her face by the loose tendrills twisting in her neck and falling against her collar. At last there is a coiffure for the tip tilted nose. Three soft puffs, one above another on the top of the head, seem to suit it famously.? Chicago Nexts. ^ FIFTEENTH CENTURY VEILS. It's not easy, even for "extremists in style," to comprehend the fascination of "veils upon veils," as worn four or five centuries ago. At one period the wives and daughters of well-to-do citizens were satisfied with nothing less than a framework of brass or wire rods upon which to rest the fashionable structure of such gauzy fabric as their purses could com?j mand; never less than two feet, often a three feet or more, the precious veiling S was upreared, floating over the should ere like gossamer streamers. A season u later additional breadths were in request S as a face protector, and swiftly following came t)ame Fashion's order for a limitless amount of material to be so bowed sj and twisted over a starched underpinning S as to reach fabulous heights. A fearless - preacher of the times likened a woman H wearing one of those hideous fol-de-rols 5 among a group of men to a tall cedar, Burrounded by small bushes. "l nese aaa oiaer nosuru neau coverings were contemporaneous, so it is affirmed, with a period marking the last agonies of feudal France and England. The dissoluteness of the times can hardly be overdrawn. These exaggerations were the "outward signs of an inward and spiritual cur sc."?Harper's Bazar. WILL WED A KING. In London Couuty, Virginia, not very far from "Washington, there is a girl who will some day contract an alliance with a King. Her dresses on that occasion will not be particularly splendid, and for that reason, perhaps, the event has cot attracted the attention that such marriages usually do. The truth is that the girl is African and the man she will marry is King of a tribe in Africa. Sh? is at present being trained for her future position in African court circles and is an inmate of the family of Rev. John S. Chester, a clergyman who several years was a missionary to the west coast of Africa. His wife became very fond of a young African girl while lie was there and asked permission that she return with them when they left the dark continent. Her father, thinking the missionary was joking, gave hi3 consent, but when the time - tronfor? fn Ko VP I CPfl , wiuc iui ? ? from bis promise. Chester still persisted ^ in his request, and finally, as no member fg of the tribe is allowed under pain of m death to break a promise, he had to alB low his daughter to depart. The :hild sg was given the name of Nellie instead of the unpronounceable cognomen which she at first possessed, and although Rg Chester already had children of his B own she was treated as a member of B the. family. Since Nellie has beea in the United States she has made great progress in her education, and now at the age of fifteen is a model of scholarship and politeness. She can speak French and English well and combines the winning ways of an American girl with the politeness of a Parisian. Nellie looks much older than she really is and would be eligible to marriage if she were with her own tribe. Since they came here the Chesters have kept up a correspondence with the parents of the girl, who have been delighted with the progress which they have learned that she is making under her instructors. About a month ago they received a letter from her tatner asKing idui sue uc iciuiuuw m Africa, as tne King wished to claim Lis bride. The tribe of which she is a member is a polygamous one and Chester re! used to do this unless the girl was to be the King's only Queen. The King, who is charmed with the stories about Nellie, has promised to do as asked, and it is likely that within a few months Nellie will be sent back to mount a throne in her native land. She has had several offers of marriage from colored meu living near home, but she has refused them all and the King will find her heart whole and fancy free. African-like, she does not care much for sentiment and seems perfectly content to wed a man many years her senior and whom she has not seen since she was a very small child.?Chicago Herald. fasiiiox xotes. The Grecian headdress is still popular. Brilliant red and vivid shades of yellow are at present a rage in millinery. Elderly matrons appear in feather caps that arc crownless on smart occasions. Grecian draperies look out of place on commonplace figures, consequently fashion has abandoned them. *? * a - a-j 1.-1. ? Trie latest lmporteu iiat rescLuuico a trambourine. It is trimmed in almost the 3Dme fashion as the bolero. The Medici collar looks well made in pink hyacinth blossom aud lined with crepe dc Chine the same shade. Tea gowns hare become very simple garments since the designers have ceased to ring the changes on sleeves. Misses' rings of to-day assume the form of a coil of rope terminating in the centre in a rude knot of colored pearls. Silver-wrought kid straps with gemset silver buckle3 fasten mauy of the Parisian tea gowns and reception toilets. Moorish riding and sleighing hoods are made of Persian lamb's wool, natural beaver, Ncutria, black fox or sealskin. Sleeves for young girls' evening dresses arc made with an opening on the outside of the arm to show the point of the shoulder. Dresses for winter are being made of Scotch tweeds, blanket plaids and rough i camel's hair and storm serges, that are heavy, but very soft to the touch. The easel writing desk is one of the \ newest novelies iu decorative furniture for a lady's room; it is an easel one moment and a writing table the next. Stylish girls look well in an apple green cloth hat, with a red velvet edge round the brim; a cluster of black velvet and black feather pompons at tho back. The newest feather trimming has numerous colored beads scattered over it, and will be used around the hems of flat skirts and in bands down the sides, as ! well as on the bodice. Sealskin is this year made into very close princess redingotes with Medici collars and pointed, rolling revers down the front. These are very elegant and stylish j looking, and wonderfully warm. A green felt bonnet, with beaver { edge; a torsade of green velvet beneath the brim; a blackbird on the crown; brown velvet strings. This style of bonnet was chosen by the Princess of i Wales. Many colored bordered handkerchiefs | are again shown. Some of them are very , attractive, but they are not as dainty a3 j the plain white ones, edged with fine embroidery or narrow lace, which have been popular for some years past. A marked characteristic of the hats " ' ' r .1 iL. 1 ana uonncts 01 me seasoa is mi; hhcu j appearance they present, this result be- j ing brought 8bout by setting pointed wings, feather tips, or birds with wings outstretched at the extreme back. English corduroy is once more a popular fabric. A gown of gray corduroy has a close tailor bcdice that opens over a waistcoat of the corduroy, arranged ?c that the ribs run diagonally toward the centre. The waistcoat is gold-braided. The back of the basque is cut in tabs, trimmed with a long row of tiny gold buttons. Woolen gowns arc made with curious combinations, gray for example, with blue velvet trimmings, or beige covcred with fine cord embroidery all over, made with beige silk sleeves and a fulling at the hips, the skirt cut 011 the cross, having small flounces at the hem, headed by rouleaux, made after the manner of q French hem. Long feathers appear less used just now than tips, short full plumes, and tufts of small ones. These trimmings are much used on toques aud turbans, and also on the Matador hat that is still q'aito popular, but suited to but few faces. The hat gives a circular appearance to the head which ?ery few figure! are tall euouirh to bear without looking topheavy. Black cloth coats with skirts to match have delicate gold palms appliqued on the front and edges, with smaller pain s on the collar, vest and cuffs. To wear with a half-long black velvet coat is a skirt of Burgundy-red pilot cloth, slightly draped on the hips, fully gathered in at the back, and bordered at the foot with a silk band overlaid wi;h straight lines of red silk braid.

I -i? - -- lVORDS OF WISDOM. 1 Merit is the only virtue -which draws j a steady salary. ] The fire of anger often costs as much as that of hard coal. Neglect is a mild terra for what is really the worse form of abuse. If people could cover up their sins by i lying, we would seldom meet the truth. ' The people who hate us talk too 1 much, and those who like us say too < little. There is no crimc in being rich; the i sin of wealth lies in the selfish enjoyment of it. A woman mourns over her vanished i youth; a man, over his vanished oppor- j tunities. The stonecutters are the really great literary men. There never was an un- ] interesting eoitaDh.

Somehow it is so much easier to admire the great man who is older than yourself, than the great man who is younger. Occassionally you find a gir ] so modest that she would prefer telling a fib to having anything to do with the naked truth. There are only two kinds of married couples; in one kind, the husband worries about the wife, and in the other the wife worries about the husband.?Atchison {Kan.) Qlobe. The Era of Nat Cultivation. "The era of nut cultivation in this country is just dawning," said Chief Van Deraau of the pomological division in the Department of Agriculture. "Before long, however, the growing of nuts for market will become an enormous industry in the United States, where now the product depended upon for consumption is cither gathered from wild trees or imported from abroai. Incidentally to the clearing of the land for settlement nut-bearing trees are being largely wiped out, and the wild crop is necessarily diminishing in proportion from year to year. This is especially true of the pecan, which the pickers are fond of collecting by cutting dowa the trees?a proceeding that naturally lessens the production of subsequent seasons. "It is only within the last ten years Una Knnn in fViio ( lLlUb iiUL LUlUUt Utl? UMMlt 1/tlUU xu bUl>9 couutry, but it is being -widely taken up because of the large profits obtained from it, and great, orchards of hundreds and even thousands of trees are growiug or being planted on every hand. In Central California almond groves of from 2000 to 5000 trees are not unusual, and in the southern part of the same State the English walnut, properly called the Madeira nut,is already extensively raised. The English walnut is grown also for market in most of the other States, and on Staten Island it is cultivated and sold green for pickles and catsup. The pecan is grown in orchards in the south and south-west, and the pinon, or pine nut, though quite unknown to people east of Mississippi, is produced in immense quantities on the Pacific Slope. Wonderful results are obtained with nuts by selection and proper grafting. "With such care they increase surprisingly in size and become thin shelled. Here, for example, are some pecans. I don't wonder that you are astonished at their bigness. The pecans you are accustomed to see have been wild ones, whereas these are cultivated specimens. You will observe that they are five or six times ss big as the ordinary nuts ancl their shells are so thin that you will notice I break this one easily between my thumb and finger, just as I would a peanut. ? TVasA ington Star. Dnugers of Naval Fighting. The New York Times says: "Aserious question has arisen from the recent armor test at Annapolis which affects the very lives of crews of modern battle ships. It was found in the test that for a "distance of 200 yards on each side of the armor plate a perfect hail of iron fragments was hurled every time a projectile took effect. In some instances the fragments of the iron plate weighed over a pound, while pieces of the size of a bullet or over could be picked up all over the testing ground. "The officers conducting the trial were compelled to take refuge under the bomb proof coverings, and even the gun had to be protected from injury by a mass of saifd bags piled high about it. It was unsafe for a gunner to attempt to stand out in the open and fire hi? piece, consequently this work had to be detached by the impact of the shell, the metal ap A"!-- 4lw.?? or*** JKircuuy ucmy UIUI'U unuii: luuu sum, i ,lIn the test at Annapolis the gun was twenty-eight feet from the armor plate, but it would seem that the same effect must be produced upon armor plate, at any rote upon compound armor, so long as it is within penetrating range. The question of mortality among the crews of modern war ships when in action has for some time been a mooted one, but the belief has been general that future naval engagements would present smaller casualty lists than iu the past. The Annapolis armor teats now incline to the very opposite view, for ic is difficult to sec how under this murderous hail of iron the open decks of protected cruisers of barbette battle ships will be habitable. In the days of engagements between wooden ships, fifty per cent, of the casuallies were usually occasioned by the splinters or fragments of timbers torn from their fastenings by round shot or shell.
