One of the weakest parts of the Chinese social fabric is theinsecurity of the life and happiness of woman.

A woman's make -up is a fearful and wonderful thing because there is so much in it and so many drugs and chemicals are involved. Take, for instance, the imnlfl nrnrpss of m?rnpurinn> and 3ee to what an art it is reduced. First the finger tips mast be soaked in perfumed water, then they must be carefully cleaned with an orange-wood stick to help. After that comes the red paste, which must be thoroughly washed oil. Following these is a pink powder, then a perfumed soap with a felt polisher. Lastly is the enamel, which is brightened by the brisk dash with a kid polisher. Bo much for the fiuger tips. Will any one dare to reveal the rest of the toilet mysteries?? St. Louis Port-Dispatch. A DAINTY JEWEL CASE. Here is a jewel case, dainty enough and pretty enough for Queen Titaaia herself. And this is the way it is made* Take a piece of white kid twelve by five inches and hem the four edges with yellow embroidery silk. Make a small bag of yellow surah silk and stitch it on the kid veiy firmly. There must be a narrow yellow cord in the top of the bag so that it can be drawn tightly together ! and fastened securely. Over this is painted on the white kid in letters of ? A. lit* . ,1 ? guiu tut; icgcuui j. ui uu^auu Under the bag there is a yellow cushion. This is very flat; in fact, it can scarcely be called a cushion at all, but it will be found a most useful article, as on it are j put all the stick pins and fancy pins so dear to the feminine heart. And last there is a larger silk bag. This can hold bangles and all large pieces of jewelry. 8ometimes a piece of chamois skin, some jewelry soap and a small brush are kept in this bag. Cut another piece of kid the same size as the tirst. On this paint either golden rod or daffodils. The two parts are stitched together with fine yellow silk. This little jewel case can be; rolled up so as to occupy very little space in a grip or trunk, and when opened it makes a pretty toilet accessory. ?Atlanta, Constitution. A SENSIBLE PLAN. 1 A little story is afloat about what some call the freak of a wealthy New York woman, and some dignify it by a more respectable name. It appears that either through liking for a time-honoied German custom or of her own wit and invention it has occurred to this society leader to put her daughter, who has just left a fashionable boarding school, in a position to learn cerlaiQ domestic accomplishments respected* in tradition, such as cooking and mending. For this purpose she has installed her in the house of an old friend, dear to her since her own school daye, but whose , husband is the counterpart in real life of i the country clergyman in fiction, possessed of a few dollars and mauy children. No servant is kept in this establishment, and the wish of the society woman is that for the space of a year her daughter shall be her old friend's help, using the word with the honorable signification it formerly had in New England. What will be the issue of this experiment is a question a number of other ^irls are asking. It is not in any way likely to set a fashion, and yet it might, i for the story as told includes several j sentences about the jewelry and travel bribes offered to sngar-coat the pill of twelve months of dusting, marketing and bread making to the taste of the young woman who, until recently, supposed she was coming out next, winter. ? Chic.igj IJerald. FA?2JO* NOTES. Grenadine is the most popular material j for the ladies' cravat. Fan-shaped skirts of hair cloth give 1 a very graceful swing to the fashionable gOWD. Gloria, a domestic silk used for some time in umbrellas, is being brought forward for dresses. A quaint conception is a scarfpin j fashioned as a dumbbell, with a diamond sunk into each end. i Mother-of-pearl buttons, half as large i as the mooD, are much used. They are in questionable taste. . fcrgOJ* tfce.m&ft pppular material for; cial success of a certain prominent tailor for women. It is very chic. Very many of the newest skirts are gathered, instead of the plaitings, which have had such a run, being used. White ribbon, broad and heavy, is much worn for belts, especially with the new silver buckles, which reach almost under the arms. There is positively no limit to the amount of cut jet beads and lozenges to be employed in decorating a stylish garment of the moment. Only two colors are admissible for reeling jackets, coachman's drab and navy blue. The former in smooth finishes the latter in rough. Real pretty are the wash dresse3 of madras and cheviot, -white and blue or white and gray stripes, made plain bell skirt, shirt waist and belt. Real lace is beyond all manner of doubt coming in again, much to the joy of the woman who, more than all else, desires her dress to be ladylike. Ribbons in pale shrimp shades powdered with pale brocaded flowers are in high favor. Pale silk chemisettes are dividing favor with the more masculine shirts. Delicate sleeves of mou3seline de sole and other like tissues are kept in aa upright position by the use of a small spring, which is sold for thi3 especial purpose. Silk cord and button are greatly used on taibr made suits for decoration, ana, to save labor, silk cord button boles attached to silk buttons can be bought in any of the principal stores. Bodices with basques are either fulled around the waist like a flounce, or are cut and curved to fit the hips almost as tightly as a cuirass. The bodices with flounce basques are particularly suitable for ginghams and thin summer materials. Castor glovc3 have beea brought into general use for shopping and ordinary wear, and they are very durable, may be drawn on or off the hands with freedom, and can be submitted to regular washing without interfering with their good condition. There have been many changes inaugurated in the methods of coiffures. ine oairaressers uarc wkcu au ?i.ui?vu trip back to the seventeenth century,and are showing favor to the high puffs and ornamentation by use of flowers, velvet bands and knots of ribbons. The present season has brought fresh life to the silk trade. The use of silk for linings, underdresses, and foundation skirts, the combination of silk with other fabrics, and the revival of the all-silk gowns, have created a demand for silks which promises to increase rather than diminish. Gauze embroidered with cut steel is made use of on the firest afternoon reception dresses. When sewed tightly and smoothly about the hips it give3 an exceedingly graceful, symmetrical appearance to the form aud brings out all the subtle, willowy movements of the wearer tvhen walking. Princes3 dresses are coming in again, i and the faultlessly formed, graceful woman will rejoice. A beautiful dress recently finished in the universally popular gray and yellow, was a gray bengaline, bordered with straight rows of gold braid, and having a bertha and full puffed sleeves of yellow crepon. Every well dressed society woman carries a silken purse now. One of the daintiest models is made of gray fine, silken floss, crocheted in slip stitch. The beads are strung on gold wire and ornamented with emeralds. On the inside there is an opening about three inches long to allow the money to be put in either side. Some of the new nets for veils have dainty true-lover's knots scattered over them. Another net that is also fashionable is the spider's web; and one tiny black spider placed somewhere on the net, so as to accentuate a favorite dimple or some peculiarly good point of the face, produces nearly as quaint an effect as the patches of Madame la Marquise. A new fashion in skirts is to make the front very close fitting, this extending well round over the hips, and to set the back fulnes3 in one large full box plait, with many folds on either side, and to fasten each side over on to the fronts with the simulated buttonholes and buttons, or to trim the edge and place over the front, as if it really fastened so when on the wearer. Flowers no longer figure in the complete toilet. This is due, probably, to the misuse of roses, which ruined the dress and destroyed the beauty of the figure. Refined women no longer adopt the huge bouquet for the corsage. Tiny posies are pinned in the bosom, tuckcd in the belt and pinned in the loops or ttxe 6ash ribbon. Field daisies, poppies, dahlias and carnations are sought for this purpose. In the Hawaiian Islands. A recent letter-writer in Honolulu says: <:In traveling about these islands, the observer is struck with the simplicity and generosity of the Hawaiian people. "A man may journey from one end of the Archi]>elago to the other, in open day or midnight darkness, and he is as sccure as if he were in his own house. A foreigner never thinks of carrying firearms, for there is no one to molest him. He nt'ver goes hungry, for whatever the Hawaiian ha?, whether poi, taro or fish, it is shared with the stranger. "When they were a wealthy and powerful people, when almost every foot of land was cultivate i. and there were from 300,000 to 400,000 inhabitants, they killed fat hogs for their guests; but those halcyon days are nearly passed, because in niue cases out of ten they are cow too poor to afford that luxury." Three Thousand Folcanoes. The San Diegan, of San Diego, Cal., publishes a descriptive account by Colouel AUcu, a well-known engineer, of a phenomenon iu what ia known as the volcanic region of the Cocapah Mountains, situated sixty-five miles southwest of YuuLa iu Lower California. Colouel Allen says there are over 3000 active volcanoes there, one-half of which are small cones ten or twelve feet at the base, the remaining half five to forty feet at the base and fifteen to twenty-five feet in height. The whole volcanic region is encrusted wi^h sulphur. One peculiar feature of the tegion is a lake of water jet black, which quarter of a mile in length and one-eighfcu>f a mille in width eeemingly bottomless/NThe watt; il .hot and jsaltj, , CURIOUS FACTS.

A recent applicant for a teacher's certificate in Lake County, California, wrote, in answer to a question, that "the vegetable kingdom of Australia was divided into two grand divisions, known as the animal and mineral;" and, in answer to the question as to how our laws were "enacted," auswered that they were "enacted by the grand jury." It is estimated that the population of the world in 1890 was 1,487,600,000, representing an average of thirty-one persons to the square mile. Of the continents Asia has the largest population? 850,000,000, Australasia has the smallest population?4,730,000. Europe is tho most thickly settled continent, with a population of 380,000,000, which is 101 to the square mile. The Breton peasants make all their butter from sour milk. The milk, as drawn from the cow, is emptied into a large earthenware jar, and allowed to remain, in the summer, till it is sour. In winter it is continually warmed at a moderate fire till it has turned. The whole contents of these jars are emptied into a churn worked by hand or horse gear. The butter from this, if properly handled, is as sweet as that made from cream in the usual manner. Alplionso XIII., the Boy Kin?. The crowns of three of the hereditary kingdoms of Europe are now worn by children. The oldest in length of reign and youngest in years is Alphonso XIIL ' TT_ l l 1-: OI Dpaio. XIU lias U';cu a huui tuo day of hi3 birth, May 17, 1886, his father Alphonso XII., having died a few mouths before. As the youngest child of Alphonso XII. was a boy, under the laws of Spain which declarc ihat the royal title shall descend in the male line whenever that is possible he became the king at once, taking rank above his 6isters, the firstborn of which then ceased to be Queen of Spain and became only Princess of the Asturias. The short life of th>o titled boy has been less happy than that ot many of his little subjects, for his health has not been good, and he has passed through some severe illnesses, which have left him a frail rather than robust child. He has recovered from his illnesses without serious results, and is now a kno ving and attractive little boy, who loves play and delights in mischief, even though he does live in a palace and Is surrounded tviui aa mo ceremony of a court. As many amusing stories are told of his bright sayings and comical acts as aro told of wonderful babies of less prominent families. One anecdote relates to his first attendance at chapel. Great pains had been taken to make him understand that ho must sit very still during the service, and especially must not say a word. He listened eagerly and in silence to the organ, but when the priest commenced to speak the small monarch called out, "Stop! you must not talk in chapel." His pictures are common in Europe, and all of them are pleasing. In one he is in the chair of state. On a footstool, before him, are his two sisters, and at his right hand sits his mother. Standing before him, in a rich uniform, is one of the high officers of Spain,who is reading a long address to his sovereign as solemnly as if he were in the presence of a monarch of ripe years. Not only do the baby eyes stare in surprise at mis interruption of fun and frolic, but the mouth also is wide open, while one tiny hand clutches with all its puny strength the fingers of his faithful Andalusian nurse, who stands in waiting behind the monarch's chair of state. He is greatly liked bj his people, and his daily appearace in Madrid with his sisters, in his little carriage drawn by four fine mules, always calls out universal expressions of affection. It is especially fortunate that his mother is a woman of good sense, high character and an exceedingly kind heart. She was an Archduchess of Austria and is now Queen Maria Christina, reigning as regent until her son reaches the age of sixteen years. She has greatly endeared herself to the people of her adopted country by her wisdom and her benevolence. Lately,the eloquent leader of the Spanish republicans, Senor Castelar, explained the quiet condition of his party by saying: "One cannot make war upon a baby and a woman I'1?Si. Nicholas.
