This purifier, which the chemists discover- ed only about sixty years ago, is ozone. It is glade up of oxygen atoms in a 1(10(11130(1 combination, and is sometimes ca1111c1 active oxy- eon because of its strong oxidizing power. It is produced during thun- derstomns by the action of the elec- trical discharges, and is also formed during the rapid evaporation of water. Sea air, therefore, contains it in small amount, and also air in the neighborhood of salt -works, where a large amount of water is constantly being evaporated In or- der to get the Balt. It is produced artificially by passing an electric spark through oxygen, or, better, by the action of a high-tension current of electricity without sparking, It is also macre in decomposing water by electricity. A mixture of ozone and oxygen appears at the positive ole. Ozone has a peculiar odor (whence s name, from a Greek word mean - ng to smell), which any one may ave noticed who has been near chore a lightning bolt struck: It an also be smelled sometimes dur- ng a snow -storm. It is disinfectant y reason of its active power of 0x1- :lizhlg many substances, especially ]len they are moist, and so destroy - ng their offensive and poisonous character. It is especially efficaci- ous in destroying the noxious mean - tions from putrefying substances and thus acting as deodorizer. When breathed, even in small quan- tities, ozone is irritating to the mucous membranes, and it is be- lieved by some physicians that many of the respiratory troubles and the influenza that prevail in damp win- ter are owing to a weakening of the resistant powers of the mucous membranes through the respired oxy- gen. VALUE. OF LEMON JUICE. Lemons used externally will aid in beautyfying anyone. There is nothing more valuable for the toi- let table than a solution of lemon juice, a little rubbedinto the hands, face and neck at night will not only whiten, but soften the akin. A este of magnesia and lemon juice applied to the face and -hands upon lying down for a fifteen minutes' rest will bleach the skin beautifully. For discolored or stained finger- nails, a teaspoonful of lemon juice in a cup of soft warm water is in- valuable; this is one of the very best manicure aids. It will loosen the cuticle from the fingernails as well as remove discolorations. In the 'Wast Indies a lemon bath is a 1- post a daily luxury. Three or four limes or lemons are sliced into the water and allowed to lie far half 1111 (tour, in order that the juice may ho extracted. A remarkable sense of freshness and cleanliness is given to the skin. Lemon juice in water is an ex- cellent dentifrice. Lemon juice and a pinch of salt will remove tho most obstinate of stains. Never throw away lemon or orange peel for these alone will often take 'away stains. TREATMENT OF' STYE, The lash is removed'. front the centre of the inflammatory area.

Taltetas will bo in the lead, and these evi11 be of the chiffon var- iety, and will conte Millos and lou - lathes. Twilled weaves arc to be a novelty of the t+oming spring and summer, and silks for shirtwaist costumes will, many of them, show the smart and favorite shepherd's plaid,( In lightweight cloths, too, manu- facturers are turning out for the spring and sullener trade the shep- herd's plaid combinations. Parisian separate blouses are al- most invariably white. One model, seldom seen hero, is made of supple white satin and lace, the lace form- ing a deep yoke, unlined, and to the yoke the satin is gathered in fine full folds that aro held in place by the girdle. At the top they are con- cealed by a foul of the material. The upper part of the sleeve is of the lace or of shirred satin, but in eith- er case it forma a long, almost close cap half way to the elbow, to which the satin lower sleeve is attached and shaped to the arras by the fine shire or tucks, and above them, or at the elbow, the sleeve is allowed to widen into acfull puff, the lower part being drawn into'a deep cuff of lace. NEW YOKE 'EFFECT IN BODICES. Satin, taffeta, and surah silks are all used for these white blouses, and most of them are mounted 011 a tight fitting hip yoke of the lining, which serves to hold the bodice part in place and does away with unne- t+ossary fullness. Ona of the newest touches on these separate bodices is to have a yoke in the front only; this is quite deep, is curved up over the bust, but extends down the ren- tor almost or quite to the girdle line in a sharp point, The Louis XV. separate bodice is really a waist, for it is fitted to the figura; there is a semi° dart on each side of :the 'runt, and a lace j03ot is used in front. These are emboroidered 311 tvhite fuel gold, or in pastel tints, or in white alone. The Louis XV. bodice has basques, and these are also embroidered, as aro the loose, coat shaped sleeves that come a little below the elbow and end 'in a deep wide cuff like a part of the.slceve,turned back, these revers being elaborately embroider- ed, This Louis XV. coat bodice in white velvet and appliqued with fine embroi'(lorieti and gild is a thing of much beauty. Lace veils, especially the real for spring wear, will ""ave large designs. Bordered veils of all sorts are dis- tinctly smart in Paris although here they are less worn, Abroad the idea is to have the hat Matched by its veil, and many of the new hats. shown hero have veils that carne from Paris with them, each (tat baying its own particular veil BROWNS HARD TO WEAR. Every season Paris puts out what is termed a "color card" indicating the hues .that will be fashionable six months later. These cards come in millinery shades as well as others. That for spring is nowhere, and shows different shades of champagne, k'e n of brown, pink g a g lea bre n, and :blue. There are five shades of each color. Blue occupies a subordinate position but this will be for, the fashionable only, as the great mass of women are partial to blues of all sorts for the spring and summer months, and with reason, for blue can be worn by any one if she takes pains to se- cure the right shade. Brown, on the o1ntrary, and also 'contrary to a popular delusion, is not becoming to many, and 110 one Woman can wear all shades and have them bring out her good points, Certain shades of brown kill certain colors in brown hair, while others bring out the best tints; and so it: goes. The brown haired, brown, yellow, aF hazel Dyed woman cite wear no more becoming color than brown. if she selects the right shades. Browns in wood tints as well as in the chanipague and golden shades bid fair to lead.

It is a traditionary custom in the Marlbot;ough family for each Duke to present a Blenheim spaniel to the Duchess when she enters Blenheim Palace for the. first time as its mis- trals. The story from which this custom had its origin is that during the Battle of Tileuheim a spaniel fol- lowed at the heels of the groat Duke throughout the day, never leaving him until victory was assured, and the Duchess, the famous Sarah Churchill, in memory of tete incident, forthwith adopted the spaniel as her favorite dog.

Norway's Sensible Law — married Men Have a Double Vote in Belgium. The Bill which is before the British Parliament for the prevention of juvenile smoking cannot well be con- sidered severe in its proposals by thoso tvho aro familiar with similar legislation in other countries. In Arkansas, for instance, so se- verely is smoking frowned upon by the law that the penalty for selling cigarettes even .to an adult cannot be less than $500, and may bo as much as $5,000; while similar fines hang over the head of a man who in an oblivious moment offers a .cigar - Otto to a friend, In Norway the sale of tobacco in any form to boys under sixteen is absolutely forbidden under heavy penalties; and the stranger wl1.o offers a cigarette to a boy, and the boy who accepts it, are cquolly liable to punishment.

This woman ac- quired the art from her husband, who was a diver in the Santa Bar- bara pearl fisheries, and when the man was suffocated in his diving ar- mor his wife courageously took his place. She used to say that there is a fascination about. the diving busi- ness which is stronger than all its dangers, and this fascination acted powerfully, upon her. She was able to remain clown as long as any of the men.

"That ain't got nothing to do with the case," said the plaintiff, casting a nervous look around the court. "And who are 'Ginger Whiskers,' 'Blue Nose,' and '01(1 pompous'?" asked the lawyer, shooting a swift glance at the three justices on the Bench, one of whom glorified in a fiery* red beard; the second had a chronically -inflamed nasal organ, of a decidedly bluish tint; whilst the third was renowned for his pompos- ity. All three, too, were known to deal with the plaintiff, though the indignant looks they now cast upon hint augured ill for the continuance of their custom. The Court looked at the Bench and tittered, "And who," went on the lawyer, mercilessly, "is the customer whom you have entered in your books as 'Hungry Shark's Old Fright'?" The look of a man who is at last having a little of his own back came into the grocer's unhappy face.
