Some of the couturieres have ns- suied me that in three months tho women of fashion will be wearing good-sized bustles, writes the Paris correspondent of the New York Press. The little cushions that they sew at the back of skirts now they allude to as pads or cushions, for tho very word bustle has grown distasteful to women who used to wear extravagant great affairs not ten years ago. A Olrl Million Keeper. “Kentucky is the home of many business women, but I think no one of them is prettier or more energetic than the lovable girl who is station agent at Rowland, in the Bluegrass,” said a Stanford friend. “I refer to Miss Susie Lasley, who is perhaps the youngest -station agent and ticket seller in the country. Two years ago, when her brother, who had been the agent at Rowland, died, Miss Susie was given the appointment, and though less than twenty, she has earned a de served reputation for capacity and faithfulness. Her home is a mile from her post, but she is always at the little ticket window to sell tickets for every Lain and is on the platform, lantern in hand, iu ?>gn for all the baggage and express, it matters not how cold and disagreeable the night in winter. She rides a wheel, but is fin de siecle in no other respect, there being too much of the matter of fact about her for any foolishness. She is a brunette, with nut-brown hair, hazel eyes, and is as attractive as she is conr- ageons and independent. Everybody at Rowland knows and loves the sweet- tempeted station agent, who will earn a better place in the company’s employ before many months have elapsed.”— Louisville Post. lilttle Biocult Woman. There is a charming dame in Atlanta, G»., says the Chicago Times-Herald, known as the “little biscuit woman.” She was born in Amerims, Ga. Her father, Professor Butler, was at different times President and Pro or of Mathematics in the nisville High School. His wife Elizabeth Holt, a member of minent Georgia family. Martha tler-Lapsley is a delightful woman th gracions manners. She is very d^rk and she has luminous ceep brown eyes. She was educated in Hollidays- burg, Penn. She inherited her father’s mathematical talent, and her examina tion papers in that study won for her the highest honors dnring tho years she was a teacher in that collage. After her marriage, while residing in a small Georgia village, a church so ciety, of which she was an active mem ber, served luncheons one day at a horse fair. Mrs. Lapsley’s contribu tion of beaten biscuits established her reputation as an expert cook. At vari ous times large trays of these delicious biscaits were sent to be sold for the benefit of the Church Aid Society, and it was not until the village was visited by a cyclone, which swept everything before it, including Mrs. Lapsley’s possessions, that she began to support her family. Later she went to Atlanta and put her biscaits on trial at the Woman’s Exchange. The demand for her dainties increased rapidly. At first she sold fonr dozen a day. Now she considers 400 biscuits a small daily sale, and on Saturday she sells 1000. Women are always bound to succeed in the domestic branches of employment, and Mrs. Lapsley’s suc cess is only one more proof of the foot. How to Guard Beauty. Sleep is a wonderful beautifier. Nothing so rounds out hollows as sound, healthful sleep; nothing so soothes and mends irritated and broken nerves; nothing so restores the tissnes of the tired body as plenty of natural sleep in a well-ventilated room, and nothing is fairer and softer and peachlike than the delicate flash on the cheeks of one who has just stepped but of the realm of dreams, where all things are rose-colored. If the hair is disposed to fall oat the following is recommended as an excel lent remedy: Two ounces of crude vaseline, melted, and mixed with a quarter of an ounce of tincture of ben- zion. Apply every night for a week, rubbing well into the scalp. Then wash the head and hair with egg and qninine tonic, which may be obtained at any good hairdresser’s. Apply the pomade until the hair has lost its ten dency to fall out. The dry-air “bath” is highly recom mended by those who have triedit and found it beneficial. One devoted dry- air bather says she has fonnd it for better than the morning cold sponge bath she took regularly for years. “Rub the body,” she says, “while it is unclothed with a quilted hair brush. This excites the circulation and sends a glow all over the body. Let the morning sunlight fall on the body, and do not bo afraid of tho air. vill be snr di y dust and kin will hi fter the ex eat a good ry is a mor charm o) ably true, is not onlj wn instiga and wickeu cannot be After rubbing briskly you prised to find how much tiny bits of thin, white removed.

This is undeu i Worry over the inevitable a wrinkle inducer and a fr|o tor, but it is a seuselesss rebellion against what helped. Worry clouds the [eyes, makes the voice sharp and impatient, puts hard lines about the mojnth and de stroys repose and gentleness of man ner. Whatever is is best. Therefore, one wonld best control one's feelings and learn as soon as possible to know that bright eyes, sweet voices and smiles abont the month will odd much to one’s beauty and to one’s circle ol friends. A gentle, caressing touch is a beau tiful possession. It goes hand in hand with beauty of character, and that means tenderness of heart, purity ot purpose, honesty of sonl and kindli ness of thought. Mach is expected of n beautiful person.—New York Tri bune. A Hrn’ii Eja Production. About 150 eggs per year is estimated as the production of a hen, if the flock is small and well cared for, bat with large flocks an average of 100 eggs per hen for one year is about correct, as disease, lice and mismanagement cause loss. The fowls on farms give larger profits in proportion to capital represented than larger stock, but are more neglected, and, therefore, do not give as large profits as eouldbe derived from them. |Cnre of Farm Implement*. Far more waste of farm implements is due to rust and disuse than is the wear of them while some one is work ing with them. They are too often left exposed for weeks and months during the worst weather in the year, and thus treated will not last one- third as long, as they should not bo tit to use any of the time. A con venient tool house near enough to tho barns to be always easily accessible, yet not near enough to be in danger from fires, will pay better than almost any other investment on most farms. —American Cultivator.

The town of Burlington, Wis., has two nomen bank presidents, besides other women bank officials. Miss Kate Adams, of Topeka, Kan sas, and Miss Constance Ingalls, daughter of John J. Ingalls, are dea- conessess at the Episcopal training- school in Philadelphia. Miss Grace Martin, of Atchison, daughter of the late Governor, John A. Martin, of Kansas, is educating herself as a professional nnrse at the Armour Institute, Chicago. The Mayor of St. Louis has refused the request of the Woman Suffrage Club of that city, that a woman be appointed Street Inspector, saying that women’s place is at home. Miss Mary E. Byrd has charge of the astronomical observatory at Smith College, and Mias Celeste Hollis, of Topeka, has won a scholarship in the royal school of music at Berlin. Miss L. M. Johnson, M. D., Balti more, has jnst been admitted as a stu dent to the Maryland College of Phar macy. She is the first woman to be admitted since the ostablishment of the college in 1841. Women in France have jnst secured a slight addition to their legal rights. They may henceforth be valid wit. nesses to registration of births, mar riages, and deaths, and to the signa tures in legal documents. , Lady Ranford, wife of the newly- elected Governor] of New Zealand, recently displayed great courage in a fire in Aukland. She rescued a baby j from the flames and worked with the men in pouring water on the fire. The Dnchess of Marlborough opened the annual sale of work in connection with the National Orthopsedio Hos pital, Great Portland street, London, the object of which is to assist the patients and provide fnnds for the extra comforts for those afflicted. It is not plain at first glance why a fire in London should have any effect on a New York woman’s ball costume, and yet it will, for since the recent great fire in that city the already fear fully expensive ostrich feathers will, it is said, advance fifty per cent in price. A university for women is to be es tablished at Tokio, Japan. The plan has the support of the principal offi cials and nobles of the empire, and the emperor and empress have con tributed money toward it. It will cost, according to the estimates, about $175,000 to start it. The biennial convention of the gen eral federation of women’s clubs will be held in Denver, Col., Jnne 21, 1898. The chairman will be Mrs. Edward Longstretb, the active leader among Pennsplrania women’s dabs, who, with Mrs. Henrotin, of Chicago, the President of the general federation, will make the necessary arrangements. What Fashion Dictate*. Blouses of black moire velonrs. English walking hats trimmed with violets and eagles’ feathers. Girls’ frocks trimmed with plaitings of satin-odged striped ribbon. Corset covers in bolero style of em broidered chiffon edged with lace. Tiny handkerchiefs having a line of embroidery above the very narrow hems. Dressy waists of satin covered with alternate rows of monsseline ruches and jet or jet-embroidered monsseline bands. Little girls’ cashmere frocks with rows of satin ribbon on the skirt and a gnimpe of brighter colored silk over laid with piece lace and tiny frills of edgings. There ik considerable nutriment in pomace as it comes from the mill. Stock will eat it quite readily if fed before it begins to ferment. ’This, however, it does very soon if exposed to the air. Consequently it is best to place the pomace in air-tight barrels or hogsheads, so as to keep air from it, and cover the pomace with some thing that will hold down the carbonic aoid gas and prevent its escape as it forms. Th«s is really ensilaging it. The pomace itself has not nutriti*? value to make thin worth while. Its chief vaiuo is its succulency, and it should be fed with grain, hay or meal, so as to give the proper proportion of nutrition. When put up in air-tight barrels and kept slightly below freez ing temperature there will be no more fermentation in the pomace than there is in the silo, and it can be nsed till late in the winter.

True Life History of the Codlln Moth. According to Professor M. V. Sling- erland, of Cornell experiment station, the old story of the entomologists about the oodlin moth laying its eggs in the blossom end of the apple is a myth. The moth that lays the eggs does not appear until a week after the blossoms fall, and then it deposits them upon the side of the apple. In about ten days they hatch and the little worms crawl around on the surface nntil they find the calyx, then creep in between the lobes which have by this time closed tightly. Up to this time the insects have not eaten, bat soon after entering the calyx they begin to gnaw their way into the apple. From this it can be seen that trees shonld be sprayed for this insect as soon as the blossoms fall, as the paris green can then be deposited in the calyx where it will be eaten by the worm, while if it is delayed ten days or longer, the calyx will have closed over the basin and the paris green will snly bo deposited on the outside of the fruit, where it will in no way injure the yonng worm. The closing of the calyx is in one way a good thing as it covers the poison and protects it from being washed out by rain. The calyx of the pear does not close, and hence it will be better to wait for ten days or two weeks after the blossoms fall be fore spraying pear trees, as there will be less danger of the poison being washed away.—New England Home stead. Earthqaak* JReatored Npeerh. Earthquakes as therapeutic agencies may yet form the subject of scientific nvestigation. The recent disturbance n Helena was responsible for some ineer things, and the strangest of hem all, perhaps, happened in the tome of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. darden, where it brought speech to iheir daughter, Etta, who had been Silent ten years. “I don’t know whether it tFas tha earthquake or not,” said Mrs. Marden, “bat something made Etta talk, for I teard her. We were awakened by the larthquake, which came at 2:30 o’clock n the morning. I did not know what t was, and at first thought that some- king had happened to Etta. I jumped Up and ran to her and said. ‘0, Etta, What is the mattes? To my surprise the replied, 'What?' It was only a Word, but it sounded sweet to me. “Since then I think that Etta has shown more interest in things. At hny rate she is improved.”—Helena (Montana) Independent. Klondlkor* "Have Trouble* of Their Own” The real difficulty in connection with prospecting at Klondike, is not so mnch the trouble of staking out good paying claims, as it is to get into the country at all, or to keep from starv ing to death if you do get in. The narrow mountain passes leading into British Columbia are so completely glutted with human traffic that the ovefflow at the foot hills of hundreds and thousands of men, women, horses, ] and dogs, and the melee of certs, sleds, ! and provisions in the utmost possible ’ confusion, form a scene absolutely nnique in the history of gold discov eries, a scene appalling in its combina tion of misery, pathos, of human am bition and consequent suffering.— From “Great Gold Discoveries,” in Demorest’s. imuAiuySum Bonsduls In sffeet May 80,1897.

It is surprising how “foreign” somft American institutions are, especially in showing a preference for foreigal products. To illustrate, the Chicago, St. Panl, Minneapolis and Omaha Railroad Company uses lead pencils “made in Germany,” thus encouraging, this industry abroad and to the extent’ of their consumption lessening tho employment of American labor is American factories producing a simi lar product. It is also true that somo American railroads use cheap, trashy foreign varnishes ou their coaches, thus not only encouraging foreign pro duction in another indnstry, but also directly injuring tho manufacturer who is the best patron of these same railroads. The Town Counoil of Mankkto,Kan., may not be unmnsioal, but it draws tho line at some tones. In 1894 it im posed a fine of fifty cents on every per son heard whistling or singing “After the Ball,” and now on ordinance haa been introduced to silence “A Hoi Time in the Old Town To-night.”
