and a half wreath to correspond adorns the

This season the new faos have started a
lino of their own, and the very newest are
of Rome, with three very large flowers
forming the entire shape and design. There
aro three flowers reprommted, with aoveral
varieties as to color, the Bret having three
enormous pansies about the eize of a small
plate; the second, three ehrysantherautns ;
and the third, three irh, with their graceful
petals. The first named is in ;shades of
mauve, purple, and yellows (true to nature,
though considerably larger); the aecond,
principally in. white and pale pinks; and
the lazt, in exquisite tones of Mao and gray.
The sticks aro in ivory, embeliehed with gold,
and it is intended to add long streamers

nese, that splendid beauty, her elder sister,
the Grand Dachas tiergias. I wonder how
that superb lady will endure to see a young-
er sister exalted over her by becoming the
futum Czorina, if indeed the math ever
dose take place. But peraonal charm are
potent elements in the marrying off of a
princess, and the young beir to the Russian
throne is probably as susceptible to the
winning qualities of a very pretty girl as are
most youths of his age. And his mother,
having been wooed and wedded for her
beauty, and having been an exceptionally
heppy wife, will probably look with favor
on a union accomplished under similar in-
fluence with leer own.
In quite another style are the leaf faas,
every section of which is in the form ot a
Spanish chestnut leaf the size of and painted
to imitate nature. Some take the ehedod
numb autumn tint, but otherare in gray
and unnatural milers. The mounts are of
tinted wood. Other funs have an exquisite
spray of pink roan painted in true Wrench
tyle around. the top, and cut out according to
their forms around the edge, while the reat
of the surface represents shaded gray leaves
scattered carelessly over. Others have dif-
ferent flowers, such as heartsease, &c., on
plain gauze or muslin, without the leaves.
These fans are a little amarier than the
usual ones, as they are curtailed at tho
sides, so do not expand so widely.
There are some new aprons of fanoy pon-
gee silk, with revers of velvet down ea.ile
side, which have just made their appearance;
and also some of Swiss embroidered white
cambric, in the style of the dress pieces sold
hest year and the year before, with the em-
broidery rising upwards from the edge; and
also the same in Indian silk. All aprons
are long. and mounted in gathers at the
waist. The long embroidered silk net scarfs,
nearly 3 1.2 yards long, in red, blue,and
cream for throwing round the head- and
throaLs wraps, are soft and. becoming ; and
there are some pretty flowered Indian silk
crepe handkerthiefs, for looltely tying round
the neck or tucking into the front of a
bodice.
The newest shoes ere out low on the in-
step, and have only two eyelet holes,
through which ribbon, metalling the color
of the kid or leather, passes, and ties in a
good-sized bow. In tan crocodile skin these
look smart, and so do others in the same
skin dyed deep crimson or blue. Bedroom
slippore are made in the same colors and
skin. -These are acceptable as presents to
gentlemen. Suede kid, in pale tan, brown,
and mouse -gray Shades, with satin lining of
the same color, and with embroidery of silk,
and small beads up dm toe cap, are most
faelaionable for wearing in the evening, or
with afternoon temgowns.
Black kid, lined veith crimson, and with
an ornamentation in tlee style of a wide
arrow -head of large cut garnet bOods, and
also small ones up the too:cap, are also pop-
ular, and so are black satin ones with a
small paste buckle. Buckles or studs; are
more worn than bows, except on the Crom-
well shoes, with their high -cut fronts and
large bows of ribbon—copies of those worn
in the days of the Common wealth, ,

ordinary alarm clock that neede to be spe-
cially provided for the purpose'and which
needs to be wound up the night before it is
to give forth its sound. This electrical clock
is so constructed Beat it can be set to any
given five minutes of each hour, the bell
beginning to ring at the time, and continuing
to ring tentli the switch is turned to cut off
the electric current. There is, of course'
no call for winding an alarm where this
device is employed, it being only necessary
on going to bed to turn the switch, thus
allowing the ch•cuit to be completed at the
time the bailie to ring. In this arrangement
the clock and battery are made in a compact
form, the cell of the ,battery being enclosed
in the clock case.

Wouderfrd Memories for Business,
phn Armour, the great Chicago perk pack-
er, is said to have remarked that a good
memory is neceesary to one who wishes to
succeed. This is perhaps a trifle strong, and
yet there is no lack of evidence to aupport
the statement. Armour himself is an ex-
ample of what a good memory can do. He
is as wonderful in his time as Cardinal
ltlezzoftenti was in his. He is said to carry
the smallest detail of his immense husinetia
in his head. He San remember the date of
small as well as large business transactions.
He knows the names of pretty nearly al
of his army of employees. After the build
ing of the addition to his great establish.
ment in Chicago he astonished a einem
of friends by rattling off hsnd the
number of bricks, carloads of sand, feet of
timber, &c., thab were used in the construc-
tion. Armour's gift is a natural one. He
has never cultivated it, bat the demands of
his business have unqueetionably kepi: his
powers of memory in active training.
"Old Hutch," as the imperturbable
Chicago wheat manipulator is called, is
another man gifted with an extraordinary
memory. He needs no books to carry his
transactions in, although, of course, he uses
them. With him, too, retentiveness is a
natural gift. He remembers everything
that he wants to remember, bat says frankly
he doesn't know how he does it. He also
possesses the gift of not remembering
things he does not wish. to remember. But
then that gift is not rare.

THE MOOH.—The coloured circle around
the moon, as men when light fleecy or cirrus
clouds are passing, is properly called a halo
—when very close, a corona. It is caused
by the refraction of the moon's light by very
small petioles or vesicles of water forming
the clouds. In the high region in which
these clouds float, the vesicles of water are
eomethnes in a frozeo condition, and may
take the various forms of minute snowflakes,
and in this form may reflect the moon's
light, giving rise to the white halo. To the
various sizes of the water vesides and the
snowflakes is attributed the various sizes of
the halos. A rainbow is always due to the
combined refraction and reflection of the
sun's or moon's light in foaling drops of rain.
Moving Millions.
A tolerably fair notion of the magnitude
of the multitude moving daily about London
—not in the city, but in suburban districts
—is afforded by the statistical statement
just issued by one tramway company alone,
controlling no more than nineteen and a
half miles of line. In half a year it convey-
ed passengers to the well-nigh inconceivable
total of nearly twenty.eight millions and a
quarter, and, as it is pointed out, the figures
are the more remarkable "as they re-
present the returns of a company which
has to contend not only against omnibus
services in the same district, but againet a
Mood railway, the London, Chatham, and
Dover Company's line from the City to
Victoria. Terminus."—eIrish Times.

never met a Sweeter or more mumble woman.

ing the past year he had sold his butter for
over three hundred dollars more than it
would have brought him except from profit-
ing by suggestions he had heard at a farm-

marketing his butter. And still farther,
from suggestions made at the Institutes in
relation to feeding, eto., he had made au
least a saving of one quarter of hi hay, and
from suggestions in relatien to milk he had
very much increased the yield of butter
from a given quantity of milk." This is
evidence that the Institutes may well be

steamer was to call at Queenstown for 1,300

witnessed many similar embarkations during
the past month, and Italian eraigrants have
recently been going to South America by
thousands. At Buenos Ayres the influx of
European emigrants boo averaged 1,000 a

An Extraordinary Organ.
A correspondent of La Beience en Emilie
seers that in the Protestant church at Libau
(Russia) there is an organ which occupies
the whole width of the church, about 60 feet,
and which has 131 registers, 8,000 pipes, and
14 bellows of large size. It has four harpsi-
chords and one pedal. The largest pipe is
formed of planks 5 inches thick and 31 feet
in length, And has a seetion of seven square
inches and weighs 1,540 qounps. Besides
the 131 registers there are 21 accessory stops

the instrument without having dix ect re-
oourse to the registers. By special .pneu-
matte combination the organist can couple
the four harpsiohorbs and obtain surprising
results.—N. Y. Post.
