Exploits of a Fakir.
In a short time the fakir bad sufficiently
recovered lroin hie trance to
stand up. and when the sheik pointed
to the brazier, be thrust hie hand
into it, seized some of the live coals,
blew them until they' emitted sparks,
bit off pieces of them, as one would
bite an apple, and eagerly ate them up.
He then went to a large priekly cactus,
which was standing on the platform,
plucked a leaf armed with strong
spines, bit of a piece, and swallowed
it. With equal avidity he crunched

Cftjuu VV'JUOUiliCVi bum cuvviv v*
Fragments of the cactus and the glnss
were handed to the spectators, who examined
them and convinced themselves
that they were really the substances
they were represented to he.
An attendant brought in a shovel, the
iron part of which was red hct, so that
a bit of paper thrown upon it flashed
at once into flame. The fakir took the
wooden handle ol the shovel with the
right hand, placed his left on the glowing
iron plate, which he also licked
with apparent relish, and then stood
? upon it with his bare feet until it bo
came black. This last exploit
filled the air with a faint odor of
burned horn. A sword, so sharp that
it cut a piece of paper in two when
drawn across the edge, was handed to
the fakir, who thrust it with all his
force against his throat, his breast and
hie Bides. Tee sword was tnen neiu m
a horizontal position about tliree feet
from the ground with the edge upward,
by the servant who took hold
of the point, which was wrapped in
several folds of cloth for the protection
of his hand, and by another
'Aissaui, who held it by the hilt. The
fakir placed his hands on the shoulders
of the two men and, leaping up barefoot
on the edge of the 6word, stood
there for some seconds. He then
stripped and, resting his naked abdomen
on the edge of the sword,
balanced himself in the air without
touching the flocr with his feet, the
eheik meanwhile pressing down upon
the fakir's back with the whole weight
of his body. ? Popular Science

physician. He finally, after trying
everything, said my stomach was

EDUCATION DOES NOT HURT WOMEN.
An English woman, Mrs. Sidgwick,
has been for some time engaged in
gathering vital statistics concerning
the women who have studied at Oxford
and Cambridge. She has gotten data
about some 600 of them, and says that
these women and their children prove
to be above the British average of
physical perfection. An exactly similar
result has followed the researches
of the Association of College Alumnje
in this country, where a very much
larger number of cases were ..used to
base deductions upon. The higher education
of women, so far from being a
danger to their physical health, is a
positive benefit.?New Orleans Picayune.
JEWELS 07 AX AMERICAN COUNTESS.
The jewels of the youthful Countess
Craven, says a London society gossip,
will probably excite some envy among
our society ladies. It is not often that
a bride of eighteen can boast the possession
of three such superb pieces of
jewelry as the magnificent tiara of
diamonds, a duplicate of the Empress
Josephine's, given to her daughter by
Mrs. Bradley-Martin; the exquisite
and very valuable necklace of three
rows of perfectly matched pearls, which
was the present of her grandmother,
Mrs. Sherman, the widow of the
founder of the family fortune; and the
beautiful old diamond collarette, taken
from her own wedding presents of half
a century ago by the Dowager Countess
Craven as a wedding gift to her 6on's
bride.
HAND-MADE UNDERWEAR.
For thousands of years refined femininity
has delighted in needlework.
And even in our day, when the ingenuity
of man has invented the wonderful
machines that work with such
-i i-A J ??
ausoiuiti twjcurtwjy uuu C.U|UIDIIC UCMIU,
needlework, pure and simple, has
never been held in higher estimation
or taken as a greater indication of refinement
and dainty living. Handmade
underwear is, therefore, in as
great demand as ever, in spite of the
perfection of machinery; and there
are quantities of rich and ultra-fastidious
women who never allow machine
work of any kind upon their body
linen. All the fine stitching, elaborate
embroidery, and even the lace itself,
must be made by hand. When it is
considered that a great number of women
are necessarily helped to make a
livelihood by such pretty extravagance,
it is seen to be a fad that cannot be
too highly commended; but while
milady indulges her luxurious instincts,
her kind heart should teach
her to be womanly as well as dainty,
and she should order these "cunningly
wrought garments" from the sewing
women themselves.
THE DAINTY GLOVE.
Dainty gloves have always a special
fascination to a woman who studies
her attire at all, and even in these
items there are points to be studied if
one would be up to date. The shops
are now Bhowing all the new makes of
gloves for the spring and summer
season, and a really wonderfully attractive
show it is. There are kid and
suede glores in a host of different
shades, from the lightest tan to the
darkest seal' brown, and including
some very charming delicate shades of
fawn, drab and stone color, while the
gray shades are positively lovely, varying
from French gray to the darkest
slate. The very light grays with
broad stitchings in black will be very
fashionable, and are exceedingly pretty.
So, too, are some four-button black
Brussels kid with bright colored sewing
down the fingers and twist stitching
on the backs. These fasten with
big buttons, and are quite the newest
thing, and will be much worn this
season. A stout chevrette suede, more
durable than ordinary suede, wearing
admirably, in fact, and having selftwist
points, is to be found this season.
In kid and suede gloves the number of
different colors is wonderful, includ
ing inauve, petunia, lilac, heliotrope,
old rose, rose pink, salmon, old gold,
cream, ficelle and all the very newest
shades for evening wear.?New York

SUPERIORITY OF THE AMERICAN GIRL.
While possessing charm and ability,
the American girl canuot be eaid to be
greater in beauty than the English
girl. In fact, the American women
are not noted for physical charm. Their
complexions have not the couleur de
rose of other nations. The piquancy
and abandon of the French woman far
surpasses that of this favorite of ours.
And in personal ornamentation she is
her rival most decidedly, and with accomplishments
more varied. Where
is that charm of voice that is so "excellent
a thing in woman ?" We posL<nou

mellowness of tones, are not ours.
What attribute so clever does this
creature possess that wins all hearts?
What charm tloes she wield that entrances
all beholders?
Perhaps it is the liberty that is accorded
her, the freedom from restraint,
the independence of thought, that
gives her this manner so bewitching, a
graciousness to persuasive, a persor
ality so captivating. Here is a yonn
girl who maintains herself with cred:
and respect under all adverse circun
stances; who defends her person wit

judgment. All these qualities are he:
And something more which makes he
of our land the ruler! We cannot d<
fine it. But we know that across tl
ocean, in Eastern lands, on every ehoi
where this charm of her presence
felt, this indefinable gift of her cha

question is, who is she? Why, tl

ay Why He Held On.
he Workmen were hoisting Atone next
' 3oor to Frankie's house, where a ne^
^ building was going up, the motive
eu power being a small engine, says the
i Boston Globe. The signal of hoisting
was given by the sound of a whistle,
and the man to whom fell the duty oi
blowing this 6tood out of sight of the
engine attendant.
!I7 One day Frankie and a small friend
were standing as close to the rope as
pal they were allowed to come when the
ng whistler was called away for a moment.
The man who made the stone fast wenl
,he for a drink of water, and the two boye
iol crept up to the tackle.
Unluckily the other boy spied the
le{^ whistle lying on a timber, and just as
rB? Frankie had seized the rope his friend
gave a shrill blast.
The engine inside the sned began to
' a puff, and, with a squeal, up went
J 7 Frankie into the air. The workmen
came running, shouting to the attendlet
ant to reverse the machine, and to the
sle boy not to let go. The lad was up to
the second story before he could be
jly stopped, but here a carpenter managed
ill- to seize him and draw him unhurt into
a window.

'Perhaps the Asiatic type of cyclone,

simoon sweeping its course in the distance.
Cvcloncs in this Western hemiepere
are usually accompanied by great
masses of clouds and drenching rainetorms.
The simoon of Asia is quite

Such knowledge was of little avail, however,
for on that wide limitless stretch
of inland sea, like the great bosom ol
the ocean, one place was as safe ns another.
"The great sand storm would come
and sweep its way without any Melinite
