f ^omIFsTworldT: i i PLEASANT LITERATURE FOR 1 FEMININE READERS. " I BEAVER "CRAVATS." , T Decided oddities in furs are the beaver 1 "cravats," which some of the fashion- 1 able girls are wearing. They are made 1 of the actual pelts, with two or three tails added and the head left on one of J the pelts. This head fastens in front, 1 and, while it is not particularly orna- i mental, it indicates tnat tne oeaver is | ? the genuine article and expensive. Al- 11 leged beaver cravats can be had for a ' few dollars, while ths genuine article costs ?50 or more. FEATHERS ALWAYS THE PROPER THING. It always delights the female heart t when feathers are in vogue. This season they are used on all garments, from the tea gown to the outside wrap and hat. This fondness for feathers is not to be wondered at, for they are always becoming. A pretty girl in a large hat, with black ostrich feathers is twice as fascinating as with any other style of hat, and a trimming of feathers about the neck of an older woman softens all the lines of the face. Mrs. Stanley affects large hats -- a --i -1- * it I anu osinca learners. _____ C WOMEN PHYSICIANS. 1 It is interesting to know that there are , about twenty-five hundred women in the g United States who bold diplomas trom a medical colleges, either American or c foreign. The first woman doctor is said g to be Elizabeth Blackwell, who guaran- ? teed in 1848. Tbs first one in Sweden j is Karoline Widerstrom, who has since been engaged by the Thule Life Insurance Company to examine women who wish to insure their lives. The physician of the Milwaukee County Hospital ^ is Dr. Anna McCoanell. Boston, probably, has more women doctors, in pro- f portion to its population, than any other city. c In walking through the streets one is Biruutt. uy U1C Digus nutu irau 1/1.

At the Grand Opera one evening last ^ week a rich American wore a handsome ' dress made by "Worth. It was mauve c Lyons silk, with satin pastilles, and had small panniers of pointed Alencon; the i j corsage was trimmed with the same beau- e tiful lace around the bust and falling to. the waist, which was pointed; the lace t was caught up on each shoulder by a j, large jeweled agrafe; two rows of very large pearls started from the right shoulder and crossed to the left hip aud 5 then passed around the pointed waist; v comb and aigrette of pearls ami diamonds and small wreath of mauve flowers with o diamond centres.

Clay, of Whitehall, Ky., is one of the most successful farmers in t that portion of the State. In a recent , article, contributed to the Woman's Jour- r naly on farming for women, Miss Clay says: . "Theadvantages of farming as a business for women may be summed up un- 1 der the following heads: Women who 1 have no training or learning in other ways so as to take a profession can, with 1 ordinary application and judgment, make * a comfortable living on a farm. It is t available for women with large or small s mean3. For women thrown upon their own resources, with children to raise, it \ i3an economical and safe business invest- 1 ment. If the means to be invested are I small a judicious choice of land as to lo- ? cation or access to market, the quality of the soil for the purpose wanted, etc., ( should be considered, with a view to , small fruits, such as strawberries, black- r berries, raspberries, dwarf fruits and ? grapes, and the most salable vegetables, ? one or two cows, chickens and ducks. Milk and cream bring more to sell than j to make into butter. Eggs are more prof- c itablc to sell than to raise chiokens. * Money invested in two or three acres, j can, with industjy and care, be made to 1 produce more than any notes or bonds with interest will bring, and the family can live on the fat of the land with very 1 little money outlay. J < A LIFE-SAVING SKIRT. "While my wife and I were on our last trip to Europe," said a gentleman to a . Detroit New rarm the other day, "we 3 met a middle-aged lady who was going 1 over for her health, r.ad ray wife and she \ became great friends. One day, while sitting in the ladies' private cabin, the ' lady said: 'Let me show you my life- * preserver,'and, rernoviugher outer skirt, 1 my wife beheld a skirt that was a curiosity if nothing more. Running up and i1 /lr?Tor> tVio clrirf nt. n dictaTiM* r>f two nr I ' three inches were soft, flexible rubber bands about two inches wide. They were sewed cu at the side of each band, and ran all the way around the skirt,and at the top they were all joined to a Lroad rubber band sis inches wide. At the top of this band was a rubber tube about I two feet long, and which ran up the waist in front and was left resting on the top of the corset. . "Said the lady, 'You behold one of my own inventions for saving my life. In case of any accident all I have to do , is to take the end of the rubber tube in my mouth and in two minutes I can , till all of the rubber bands, which are , hollow and air-tight, with air. Then, , tying the tube in a hard knot, I am ready , for the waves. This skirt, when I strike the water, will spread out in the shape ( of a pond lily leaf, and I will rest oa it ; in any upright position, as easy as J though reclining upon a coach, and I f can float around till picked up.' , "As our voyage was a pleasant one we , did not have an opportunity to see how ( it would work, but 1 have no doubt it ( would work well." i ] MUDDY "WEATHER COSTUME. ( A new costume for muddy weather has < now been invented by Mrs. Charles Han- j [cock, of London, and having been ex- < !hibited to a gathering of ladies has won j * 'their commendation. In accordance ] jwith the principles of the Rational Dress | {Society, it is simple in form, hygienic in j !character and combines warmth with '| MM? ightness. The material of the costume inhibited is a thick brown tweed. There ire five parts, all made in the tweed? riz., bodice, skirt, knickerbockers, ? ix J i. J jailers auu uutuuur jataci. The skirt is made without a foundation, and is five inches shorter than the jsual walking dress. There are two large 30X pleats at the sides and two at the jack, these latter being double bands of vide elastic to keep them in position. The back breadths are lined on the inner ;ide with machintosh, three inches deep. Prom this the mud can easily be sponged n case of any stray splashes. Beneath he skirt are the warm tweed knickerjockers and gaiters of the same that each to the knee. The bodice is made )f cloth, much thinner in texture than the weed, also darker in color. The sleeves ind collar are also in cloth. Here an j idinirable feature of the new costume nay be remarked. At the waist, where varmth is fully supplied by undergarments, corset, etc., the cloth is suffi:ient. But over the shoulders and round ind under the arms, in the region where he lungs reside, there is added a lecoratively useful little supplementary acket of the Zouave form in the thick weed. This completes the indoor form of iress, which can, of course, be worn vithout the gaiters. Many busy women lave not the time to change their whole :ostume every time they go out, and the ??**? {e inofifiorl nf in/lnnr nhojSA in this ground.

The Dutch style of hair-dressing prevails for wee folks. The hair is cut to just, reach the shoulders, and the ends arc juried to turn in while the front of the hair is cut in a short, slight bang nearly straight across the forehead. Gold and silver pointed lace, jeweled, i is one of the newest trimmings, and is set with all the imitation gems. A beautiful new evening fabric is of black silk Brussels net, strew n with a design ol louble clover leaves, carried out in gold set with large milliners' rubies and sapphires. A comb with three ring3 attached, through which the hair is passed to make the double-eight coiffure, is certain to be popular, since it is ornamental, very secure when put in the hair and the most convenient method designed for quick arrangement. This ring-comb was in the late exhibit of M. Stehr, to whom the prize was awarded at the Pari9 Exhibition. Maine's Largest Moose. C. B. Parker. D. D. 8., is an enthusiastic hunter,as well as a frequent and effective fisherman. "While in Maine he shot, the other day, a moose, of which the recorded dimensions are larger than any other one ever brought down. He tracked him for six days with the persistence of a detective and the tireless patience of an explorer. The largest moose killed before this ane was the prey of the very guide Dr. Parker had on his recent expedition, rhat was presented to the National Museum at Washington, but Dr. Parker, who knows a good thing when he sees it, md for whom the best Lb just good 3nough, will keep this one himself.

Wisdom is magnified common sense. i One self-approving hour whole years outweigh. j The great man is he who does not lose his child's heart. ' Weakness, on both sides is, as we know, the motto of all quarrels. Every base occupation makes one sharp tn its practice and dull in every other. . A sound discretion is not so much indicated by never making a mistake as by never repeating it. To save money a man should associate with men whose incomes are only one- ) balf as large as his own. When it is said of a man that he is dyspeptic people begin to wonder if his wife writes novels or votes. Whenever a woman asks one favor she pynpftq to receive two. and is disaD pointed if slio dosen't get them. Every man has his chain and his clog, only it is looser and higher to one man than other; and he is more at ease than he who drags. There is no use of money equal to that of beneficence; here the enjoyment | grows on reflection, and our money is j most truly ours when it ceases to be io our possession. All censure of others is oblique praise of self. It is uttered in order to sho^ . how much the speaker can bsar. It has ill the insidiouness of self-praise and all ' the reproach of falsehood. A slender acquaintance with the world 1 must convince every man that actions, j not words, are the true criterion of the I attachment of friends; and that the most i liberal professions of good will are very , far from being the surest marks of it. If you suppress the exorbitant love of pleasure and money, idle curiosity, in- j iquitous pursuits and yanton mirth, what a stillness would there be in the ! greatest cities 1 The necessaries of life j do not occasion, at most, a tnira pare 01 the hurry. Stopping a Bay Plague by Electricity. The -wholesale destruction of insects through the medium of large floods ol . light from an electric arc has long been J the hobby of various people who have observed the number of moths and other ' insects which at certain times of the year pay the penalty of their inability to ' withstand the fascination of the brilliant Bpeck of fire produced by the incandescent carbons of the electric lamp. On the authority of a very reputable European journal such an application has been recently made on an extensive ecale and with much benficisl results. A cut in ; Ubber Land und Meer gives a desolate ; picture of a once beautiful park near j Munich, Bavaria, the vegetation of | Df which has been completely destroyed by the ravages of a moth callcd the nun, on account of the peculiar black and white shadings of its wings. The trees arc all denuded of leaves, and stand gaunt and cheerless, a silent reproach to the inability of the inhabitants to cope with the scourgc. It is said that all known devices were brought into requisition in the attempt to route the enemy; Bres were lighted, sheets of cotton cloth steeped in adhesive glue were stretched from tree to tree; legions of children were enlisted as a caterpillar-picking army, but these and all other efforts were as but a drop in the bucket against the b weeping onslaught of the insects. At last the electric light was thought of. On the top of a rough frame work a powerful search-light was fixed, and ( underneath this was an exhaust fan operated by a motor leading to a kind of grinding mill. It is stated that the in- I sects attracted by the intense light were drawn down In myriads to the rollers of the grinding mill.?Chicago Ne ics. A Congressman's Duel Story. ' | In connection with Senator-elect Irby's duel in his younger days Congressman John M. Allen, of Mississippi, tells of an amuaiDg affair of honor in which he actcd as second. There was bad feeling between two young lawyers in Mississippi, and it was ' decided that only blood could wipe out the enmity which existed. A challenge ' was sent and duly acknowledged. The j hour was appointed, and the two men j met in a secluded spot. One of them j was a great sufferer from Saint Vitus's ! dance, the other was cool and collected. ' As they faced each other the afflicted i ma ^ began to tremble from head to foot, j w> ile his pistol described an arc with j varying up and down strokes. His op- ! ponent stood firm as a rock waiting for the signal to fire. Before it came, how- ! ever, he laid his pistol on the ground, 1 walked into the woods and cut a limb off j a tree with a fork in the end of it. This he brought buck and stuck it in the ' ground in front of his antagonist. Then, | turning to the second, he said: "I must ! request you to ask your principal to rest his pistol in that fork." "What for?" asked his opponent's second. "Well," replied the other, "I have i no objection to running the risk of one I shot, but I certainly do decline having ' one builet make a honeycomb of me. If . that man was to shoot while his hand is shaking the way it is now, he would fill me full of hole3 at his first shot." I This was too much for the seconds, and by mutual agieement a truce was patched up, and no shots were exchanged.? i Washington Pott. |How Australians Kill a Suake. In Australia there are several kinds ol poisonous snakes, and a resident in that country told me that be once saw a snake dart out from a pile of timber i which was being moved, writes a corre- I spondent. As it passed it slightly grazed tne cheek of one of the men at work, who hardly knew that he had been touched, but soon afterward he felt a sharp pain in bis cheek, and in a few hours he was dead. The black natives have a singularly bold way of killing snakes, of which an I English traveler was an eye-witness on several occasions. One mornincr a lanre I saake was seea gliding along near the . encampment, -when one of the black | fellows ran after it, and jumping on its j head with his bare heel, he spua round \ like a ballet dancer until he ground the ; head of the crcature quite flat, and it lay motionless. He then battered it to pieces with his club. This method of killing a snake must require great boldness and address, but it is perfectly effectual; for wounding a snake in the body does not kill it iin- i mediately, and it can still spring at you, | but if its head is crushed it is at once disabled.?Tori Journal. _ I 1 - ..W . . t Prevention Isbetter than cure, and people who are subject to rheumatism can prevent attacks by keeping tht blood pure and free from the add which causes thi disease.

The raau wiio invented ine hooks now in use on the tops of shoes was a Missouri shoemaker. He got $350 for this patent, but the man who bought it made $75,000 out of it. The inventor and patentee of that toy for children, the rebounding ball,now almost forgotten by the fickle youngsters,cleared $125,000 out of his patent, while the "chestnut bell" profited the firm that patented the idea ?150,000. "Pigsiu clover'' would have brought the inventor, a central New York farmer, as much more, but a number of firms manufacturing children's toys ran the risk for inlringement of patents during that craze, and the inventor only received $15,000 and a lot of lawsuits.

I Lupus vulgaris, of which we arc now hearing so much, is an extremely chronic disease of the skin, attacking persons between the ages of two and fifteen. It is characterized by the appearance of reddish-brown nodules of granulation tissue upon the skin, usually of the face. The mucous membranes are rarely affect- < ed. The nodules start in the corlum, but penetrate the connective tissue beneath and the papillary layer above. ' The disease spreads by the formation of fresh nodules at the periphery of the original lesion. New centres form and tl*? old ones may gradually disappear, ju thetis9ue breaks down an open sore is found, covered with yellowish and brownish crusts. Unlike ordinary tubercle, the lupus nodules are rather vascular. Tubercle bacilli are found in the tissue, but they are very infrequent, and often many examinations are required to detect them. Inoculation of lupus > nodules will it is asserted, cause tuberculosis in rabbits and guinea pigs; but inoculation of the skin with tubercle will not produce lupus. For this and other 1 reasons so distinguished an authority as Kaposi denies tbat jupus is a cutaneous tuberculosis, although that view is held positively by Koch and his pupils. Lupus, chronic as it is in its tendencies, often disappears for a time under treatment, only to reappear later. Dermatologists generally give favorable prognosis, provided treatment is persisted in.?
