? . Bums From Extreme Cold. At the last meeting of the Swiss So* ciety of Natural Sciences, at Lausanne, M. Raonl Pictet gave 6ome particulars concerning cold burns experienced by himself and assistants during his investigations of the lowest temperature attainable. There are two degrees of burns. In one case the skin reddens at fiiet and turns blue the following day, and subsequently the area of the spot expands* until it becomes nearly double its original dimensions. The "burn," which is usually not healed until five or six weeks after its occurrence, is accompanied by a very pain- ^ fnl on the affected spot and t ?O A , surrounding tissues. When the burning is more serious, produced by longer contact with the cold body, a burn of the second degree is experienced. In this case the skin is rapidly detached, and all parts reached by the cold behave like foreign bodies. A long and stubborn suppuration sets in, which does not seem to accelerate the reconstitution of the tissues. The wounds are malignant, and scar very slowly in a manner entirely different from burns produced by fire. On one occasion, when M. Pictet was suffering from a severe burn due to a drop of liquid air, he accidentally Kcorched the same hand very serious ly. The scorched portion was healed in ten or twelve days, but the wound produced by the cold burn was open for upward of six months. In order to try the effect of radiation in dry cold air, M. Pictet held his bare arm np to the elbow in a refrigerating vessel maintained at 105 degrees, when a sensation of a peculiarly distinct character was felt over the whole skin and throughout the muscles. At first this sensation was not disagreeable, but gradually it became decidedly so, and after three or four minutes the skin turned blue and the pain became more intense and deep seated. On withdrawing the arm from the refrigerator at the end of ten minutes, a strong reaction wa3 experienced, accompanied by a superficial inflammation of the skin.?Scientific American.

"It's the -worst season for dampness I ever saw,'' said a traveler on a train. "Yes." answered a man of big words, "it's the supersaturation of the atmosphere from fogs and vapors; these cause too much moisture and sickness follows." "Maybe 'tis, but, as I said.

Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube re- ^ stored to its normal condition, hearing will be { destroyed forever; nine cases out ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in- C flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. y We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can- S cot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure.

Suggestions Valuable to MothersMaterials and Styles That Will Be in Vogue?Some Stylish Neck Garnitures. / ROWN-UP members of the I / community do not entirely V|?J" monopolize the pretty things r\f Kavpt ttptp the little ones more gracefully or artistically clad. The blouse waist is seen everywhere,' developed in all sorts and varieties of material, and for tots whose ages range from two to ;ight years skirts barely reach to the aend of the knee. Sleeves are large ?puffed, 6hirred and rosetted quite is elaborately as those worn by the nammas and big sisters. In hats the Kate Greenaway styles ire still in favor. They are always gathered on to wires and trimmed vith lace-edged frills or bows of rib>ons. Black and red combined are popular or little girls, and solid colors have ilmost driven the "mixed effects" rom the field. Small boys and girls?those who leed nursery gates?have fortunately m abiding fashion in their clothes. 3oth sexes dress alike, in white nainiook, until three years, when the boy jives the first cold shoulder to frock6 )y getting into kilts of pique, serge, >r flannel, with a blouse waist of the :ame and a reefer jacket for out-door vear. Girls of three years attest their adranee from babvhood bv wearinsr nuch shorter dresses of nainsook, vith others of chainbray, fine ginglams, and dimities. The little misses )f this tender age are so attractive in :hemselves that they are superior to iress, and it is the wise mother who nakes the little frocks of very 6imple design for general wear. If the small jingham and cambric morning dresses ire made open in the back, to be but;oned to the hem, their laundering will oe much simplified, a point worth conlidering when a half day's wear, 6ome;imes less, sends each to the tubs. For ;he pique, chambray, and nainsook FASHIONS F xocks pretty models are shown this ipring, which give to Miss Baby, a ;ouch of her mother's breadth of shoulder. These are little yoke or juimpe dresses, with a wide, pointed ;ape collar of the material, edgeu with embroidery from two to three nches deep, put on just full enough ;o keep from puckering; this is finshed round the neck with a plain ;ord, and is hooked or buttoned with i single button beneath the neck finsh of dress or guimpe, as the case nay be. Older girls who are well dressed are iimply dressed. So long as short Iresses are worn, there is not enough >f plain fabric shown to make a background for elaborate trimmings, and nuch ornamentation of these small Iresses violates the canons of taste in Iress as well as gives undue prominence to a subject of minor importance to a child. Especially does ;he average American mother err in ;hi9 respect in preparing the ward obe for her little girls for their eumner vacation. Then, if ever, should hey have simple and serviceable rocks: instead then, more than ever. or materials are cheap and long days jive time for sewing, are tliey apt to >e over-dressed. There are. of course, many pretty nodels in tasteful designs for those vho do not care to confine the dresses o severe simplicity. One illustrated n the large cut is of printed duck, vhite, with a pin-dot of light blue; he long, full sleeves are finished with :uffs of blue duck, pin-dotted with Flute, and folds of the same material tart from the armholes and are caught [own in the front of the bodice by wo rows of round pearl buttons. Another model illustrated is of ps^e>ink pique, the chemisette trimmed rith rows of narrow feather-stitch >raid, white, and a wide ruffle ol em>roidery, double-pointed revers of he pique forming a sort of color, vhich is tied in front with a bow of k-hite lawn. A model for a cashmere or crepon Iress lies the skirt trimmed with long ines of baby velvet ribbon of haruonizing or contrasting color ; these lutline the seams of the gored 6kirt ind radiate from the neckband in a iircular yoke effect on the round jodice, each line on waist. The 1oav?.r and collar band are similarly inished, and frills of lace drape the houidere. The short French skirt, falling just jelow the knee, remains iu favor imong fashionable mothers for girls rom three to ten years, and is even | vorn np to twelve years by girls not ' i.ll TV.o olrirta from ten to fotir- 1 een years now flare decidedly, with ull plaits in the back, quite like their uamma's gowns. The little women, n fact, copy moBt of the effects in he older women's fashions in big ileeves, Directoire sleeves, fichu and )iouse effocts, and the rage for fronts ind crushes, as the stock collars are amiliarly called. Guimpes remain in avor for girls of all sizes, though the firls above twelve years usually de clare ft preference for frocks without them. STTLI8H NECK GARNITURES. There seems to be no abatement to the fancy for showy vest fronts and decorative collare. Probably because it is so easy to put on your best bib and tucker over a last season's gown, and feel quite satisfied with your appearance. Cuffs, collars and vests of lawn and sir A GROUT OF FASHIONABLE COLLAR*?. lace will be so ubiquitous through the spring and summer that the many fingers are already busy over their preparation. Very pretty and generally becoming are the lawn collars which turn over at the throat, and cuffs to match which turn back at the wrist. For a slender throat the three-cornered pieces which turn over beneath the ears are the most becoming. A group of fashionable collars is pictured, the upper one being made of gauze muslin in a pointed yoke outlined with an insertion of silk embroidery, from which falls a flounce to correspond. The yoke of the second collar is of fine muslin laid over a colored silk foundation, and bordered with a band and frill of stiletto embroidery. The third collar of the OR MISSES. group is an old-time shape, made of grass cloth, ornamented with self colored embroidery and feather stitching. All of these collars may close at the back with satin ribbon bows. NOVELTIES IN HEADGEAR. Art, as far as millinery is concerned, is in advance, far in advance, of nature this season. Not a bud, nor blade of grass, nor the faintest alluring suggestion of spring is out-ofdoors, and indoors in fashionable shops a perfect riot of blossoms in riumphant profusion proclaims the news that spring millinery has arrived from Paris and Vienna. What elegant, perversions of last year's modes dazzle one. Last year's small, unimportant flowers are magnified into large editions in strange colors. Already a clever observer has fdiscovered that everything in the millinery line runs in a trio this season. Of course a chord of three notes ie necessary for harmony in music, and in red, yellow and blue makes a perfect chord in color and certainly in the queer twists and shapes and oddlj interwoven straws, and the variety of materials that are conspicuous features of headgear now, there should be a harmonizing element. Three is the magic number that preserves accord in what at first glance appears startling discord. Feathers come in bunches of three; colors are masked in triple shades, flowers are arranged in threes and the brims of hats form three distinct pleats or three terraced effects like that shown in the illustration. It is a most springlike combination, being of STRAW WITH CERISE RED ROSES. coarse pleated straw, green as tender r\?;? ?,i ? young grass. veriest; reu xudcb nuu cyclamen form the decoration either Bide, and rising like ribbon grass from the flowers are three loops of glace ribbon of a very pale shade of green. This is jauntily tipped up in the back, the flutes in the straw being ornamented with green bows. An old Colorado woman who playt a hand organ on Denver's streets has been found to be worth over 8100,000, and to earn as high as $25 a day. 1 MODEL $1000 SUBURBAN HOME. Plans for Its Erection, Interior Ar- J rangements and Materials Used. (Copyright 1895.) There is a mistaken idea veTy prevalent that a small honse that shall be attractive enough for a man of taste cannot be built for less than two or three thousand dollars. Less than half that sum is sufficient if it be judiciously expended. Any amount of ' money can be sqandered in non-essen4-iolei nnd ir? donnTftlinTIO are as useless as inartistic. In the main, we only require from a house, as from a man, that it perform its duty well, and do the things it was intended to, in the best way, and be pleasing and graceful in doing it. A model home, if it be skilfully planned, can be erected for a surprisingly small sum in these days. The inventiveness of Americans, which has devised all sorts of machines for joining and carpentering to re-. place the expensive hand work, has made thif possible. Wise men who look to the future are gradually availing themselves of the present conditions. The near-by suburbs oi all cities are being built up with inexpensive houses, and the effect will soon be felt in the problem of municipal reform. The assertion does not need proof that the householder is a better citizen, in that he is more keenly alive to the administration of affairs, than the dweller in a rented house. He feels that it is not a mere privilege, but a duty as well, to exercise the franchise and to give Irnnn cntm+imr +n ff>o ao+B nf thft Tillb lie servants. He has a personal interest in the affairs of State?he is a householder and a taxpayer. When he speaks of "home?a veritabe homti" as distinguished from the rented house?in his eye he has pictured a pretty cottage something like the o,ne herewith illustrated. / X?CO.

The speaker was a well known dentist of West Thirty-fourth street, and he had been telling of a queer oase of tooth extracting he had been called on to perform a few nights since. He was called up by a telephone message from a prominent Eighth avenue undertaker's and told to repair immediately to an address in West Thirty-s&th street. The dentist thought some jest was intended, and asked: "What do they want with me; to work on a dead man?" "Yes, that's it exactly," he was assured in reply. The undertaker said he would meet the dentist at tho address given. A student friend had called in on the dentist, and he was asked if he cared to join in the strange call. The dentist was shown into the chamber of death by the sobbing wife, who indicated that she wanted the Tiahf flvfi tooth extracted. As the ?O? "J - undertaken same in she left the room. "What does all this mean?" asked the dentist, who was thoroughly perplexed. It was explained to him that the deceased had insisted on being cremated, and the wife wished to retrain some souvenir of him before the body was committed to the furnace. A luxuriant mustache had just been removed from the lips of the corpse by a barber, who was told by the wife to mount it and spare no expense. It was when the dentist went at the task of drawing the coveted tooth that he had a queer time. As he gave the tooth a tug there was a contraction of the muscular structure as emphatic as if the most sensitive patient were stretched in a chair without even the balm of gas to dull pain. When the contraction of the cadaver took place the undertaker and* the student made one mild plunge for the door. The dentist waB not frightened, but he sayB there was something uncanny about the whole thing. The tooth is reposing in alcohol now, but is shortly to be mounted on gold.?New Ior? Adveitiser. Poorest Community in the World. "The poorest people as a community in the world, probably, are the fishermen of Newfoundland?and, for goodness sake, don't call it Newf-un-lan, as bo many ignorant people outside of the province do"?said F. C. Loomie, of St. Johns, at the Ebbitt. "For time immemorial the fisheries have been controlled by a few persons, who waxed rich and powerful from them. The fishermen are employed by them during the season, but they do not get paid in money. The men who run the fisheries also conduct stores at every town where fishermen reside, and the latter are given orders for supplies on these establishments, where they are charged from two to four times as much for an article as they would be if they had the cash and were able to deal somewhere else. Formerly, when the fishing was good, this system did not result in absolute want to the victims of it, but now, when each year, almost, brings a failure, the destitution is something terrible. xne law which ioroaue me Boil of Newfoundland to be tilled wbb repealed years ago, but the men who have the blood of long lines of fishers in their veins are the hereditarily incapable of farming, so they eke out a miserable existence on the water, and hundreds of them starve each year."? Washington Star. Cruelty to Gold Fish. Sir Herbert Maxwell has written a a letter to the London Times protesting against the cruelty of illuminating bowls of gold fish with electrio lamps. Fish, he explains, are so sensitive to light that some of them (trout, for instance) can alter their coloring, according to the ground on which they flwim. But the peculiarity that renders exposure to strong light intolerable to fish, is that they have do eyelids, so that to confine them in the neighborhood of a brilliant lamp is to inflict upon them indescribable torture.?Chicago Times-Herald. A YOPHQ OKI'S TRIALS. NERVOUS TROUBLES END IN ST. VITUS' DANCE. Physicians Powerless?The Story Told by the Child's Mother. (From the Reporter, Somerset, Ky.) Among the foot hills of the Cumberland Mountains, near the town of Flat Rock, is the happy home of James McPherron. Four months ago the daughter of the family, a happy girl of sixteen, was stricken with 8t. Vitus' dance. The leading physicians were consulted, but without avail. She grew pale and thin under t.h? terrible -nervous Strain and was fast losing her mental powers. In fact the thought of placing her in an asylum was seriously considered. Her case has been so widely taked about that the report of her cure was like modernizing a miracle of old. To a reporter who visited the home the mother said: "Yes, the reports of my daughter'ssicknes3 and cure are true as you hear them. Her affliction grew into 8t. Vitus' dance from an aggravated form of weakness and nervous trouble peculiar to her sex. Every source of help was followed to the end, but it seemed that physicians and medicine were powerless. Day by day she grew worse until we despaired of her life. At times she almost went into convulsions. She got so that we had to watch her to keep her from wander- , ing away, and you can imagine the care she was. ' About this time, when our misery was greatest and all hope had fled, I read of another case, almost similar, that had been cured by a medicine known as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Almost in desperation I secured some of the pills and from that day on the wonderful work of restoration commenced; the nervousness left, her cheeks grew bright with the color of health, she gained flesh and grew strong ooxn munuuiy uuu puysiuuujr until to-day she is the very picture of good health and happiness. nTf 4a n-nfnnAtky fhflf T cnonlr in rrlnir i n0? " "uuuo' " 15 " " terms of Pink Tills to every ailing person I meet. They saved my daughter's life and I am grateful." The foregoing is but one of many wonderful cures that have been credited to Dr. Williams' Tink Pills for Pale People. In many cases the reported cures have been investigated by the leading newspapers and veri? fled in every possible manner. Their fame has spread to the far ends of civilization and there is hardly a drug store in this country or abroad where they cannot be found. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are now given to the public as an unfailing blood builder and nerve restorer, curing all forms of weakness arising from a watery condition of the blood or shattered nerves.
