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

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. ? Chicago News.
CARMEN SILVA'S NEW DRESSES.
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.

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

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

The Grecian headdress is still popular.
Brilliant red and vivid shades of yellow

Long feathers appear less used just

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.

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

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

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.

consumption can be cured. If takes
