Tho many dicided changes which

is little change in the making up oi

clinging in form and draped beliii.d,
short or tiained for the evening; the
combination costume in its various
forms, newest of which is the coat
bodice different from the skirt, and the
severely plain cloth walking dress in
two or three pieces.
Undoubtedly tne surtout Is the lead
ing fashion among novelties. This Is a
p.ain straight polonaise, with the skirt
open always in front nearly to the waist,
generally at the back also, and fre
quently on the sides as well. The ma
terials of which it is made are various,
cloth, velvet, camel's hair, brocade or

Oriental mixtures are useful surtouts
for wear with any skirt. The best are

importance. The best drpsmnirra

the arms, and about three inches wide,
." furnished with hooks and eyes set close
together. Sleeves are made very tight,
and the wearer of a fashionable bodice
is expected to put on her bonnet before
she dons her dress waist. It would be
impossible to bend the arm in these
sleeves were it not that a slight fullness
is allowed on the under part just at the
elbow. Sleeves for ba.l dresses are a
tiny puff. For afternoon wear they are
elbow long, while the favorite length
for all occasions is three-quarters, long-
; wiistcd uloves being worn witu them
on the street.
The long-waisted, tight-fitting jacket,
with deep basque, is a vtry favorite
model for spring dresses. It is fre-
- quently made of a different material
from tha skirt velvet, brocaded silk,
Turkish CHshmere, wool and silk bro
cade or any fancy mat' rial ; the skirt
maybe plain or striped. It is well to
trim the skirt with bias bands or Out
ings, panels or searf-draperies of the
same fabric as the bodice.
There has never been a time when it
was so easy to remodel old dresses to
good advantage. The variety of new
fabrics is infinite, and something may
be found to combine with everything.
The novelty goods by which we mean
all the army of broche and figured
goods furnish trimming for all ma
terials and shades. These are used in
small or large quantities; whole sur
touts are simply as vests, pipings, col
lar and cuffs, h ist year's buntings are re
made, with bands of the noveltv n-nnHs
for trimmings, and old silk or cashmere
dresses are turned into the skirt, a sur

so-called, are very handsome. Such are
the Scotch zephyr cloths, figured
mummy cloths, the crape finished Yeddo
goods and the oil calicoes, which last
are made up in combination with fine
woolens.
Tiie imported gingham suits are the
prettiest ot nit wash dresses. A gay
fancy is that of trimming light blue and
white checked gingham with hands ano
pointed tongues-of dark claret-coloreo
gingham. Such a dress is further deco
rattd by a ciu-tcr of hand-painted Bow

is tied sailor taeliinn. Souii'thinir nninii -

Madras ginghams are so'd in quanti
ties. The trimmings are coarse torchon
cr Russian lace or Hamburg edges, and
a favorite method of making them is
witti round skirt, with flounce at the
bottom, or draped overskirtand a jacket
bodice.
In dark colored percales also a draped
skirt is worn over a short skirt, with a
bodice gathered round the waibt and
finished by a plaited basque.
Coat basques are very fashionable, so
also is the skirted or marquise basque,
which has the skirt set on a little below
the waist line. These, however, are
used chiefly for handsome dresses.
The Russiim blouse waist is very
fashionable in Europe and has made iw
arpiarance here. These waists are
tliipt d like the chemise Rosso worn hist
season with no scums but those under
the arms and cn the shoulders, and long
entugli to cover the hip3. Their full
nets, however, is laid in a single box
pleat down the middle of the back and
one down each front ; when 'he button
hole hem of t ie front is also laid in a
broad box-plait this gives the appear

belt of the cluth is thin added. The
edges of this blouse are stitched by
nwciiinein many rows on a d.epheni,
and the broad bx-plaits, have a row of
stitching down each edge. The Russian
blouse tortus a liica variety from the
casHquin or coat bodice for morning
wear and is (Specially pretty for flannel
dresses, and is also used for ginghams.
White dresses are flounced to the
waist with alternate flowers of Ham
burg embroidery and plain material.
Ecru muslins are much liked. Ex
tremely pretty and cheap dresses are
made of the thin, unbleached cloth
known as cheese-cloth, trimmed with
anil draped over Turkey-red calico of
solid pecales. Oil calicoes in Oriental
figures are also much used as trim
mings. Fieur de the is another pretty
cotton in i ompadour figures, which is
aid to wath well, and is very tffisctire

The much talked-of Jersey bodice is
now made to button and is fitted with
two daite, one each side. Stockingnette
is used for them now, aa well as the
woven raw silk, like heavy undershirts,
in which they were first introduced.

What Arctic Explorers Must Undergo.
The statement of Captain Markham.
as reported by the San Francisco Call,
that " there is not an instance on record
where a ship has passed a second win.
ter in the dreary Arctic latitudes that
death hus not occurred," coming fiom a
master of Arctic exploration, is one of
the strongest appeals on humane grounds
to open, if possible.carly communication
witu the American Afitie expedition,
and to bring home any ol the officers or
crew who have shown physical inability
to stand the test of another winter in
the Jeanette. Perhaps the most striking
illustration of the English explorers
forcible rem l k is found in the experi
ence oi the Austrian expedition oi 1872
in the Tegethnff. That vessel in the
winter of 1872 73, diifting on an ice floe
throughout the profound darkness ot a
polar night for lot) days, the sport of the
tempestuous polar ocean threatening
every moment to chatter the Tegethoff's
icy cage and eugult' its crew, lost not
one ot its men, though subjected to in
teutest agony ot suspense long drawn
out. But, in the tecond winter, though

das in length) without the horrors ol
the first," as Lieutenant Payer reported,
and though abundantly supplied with
fresh meat from ice bears the most
efficient remedy againt su.-vy disease

claimed its prey. However hardy the
polar explorer may seem to be, or may
be, when he first enters the icy sea-i, an
experience of theii winter rigors and
boreal tempests can alone determine
whether he is made of the metal to en
dure the protracted strain and lieice
shocks inseparable from lurther pole

demands that whenever it is possible to
communicate wiih a polar expedition
aii a to take ott any oi its number who
may evince signs ot succumbing expos
ures of its projected voyage, su;h com
munication should be promptly made.
Although there is no reason to fear lor

Power of the Pulse. '
If all the heart-beats of one person in
good health during twenty-four hours
could be concentrated ana welded into
one great impulse, it would be powerful
enough to raise a ton of iron 120 teet
in tue air. A healthy heart keeps steadily
at work without wearying ; but this it
is enabled to do because it takes a rest
after each beat: or to express it more
clearly, if the contraction (emptying)
and expansion (reahing) occupy two
thirds of a second of time, the period of
rest takes a third of a second betoi con

A Thrilling Story of the Sen.
Captain George Btal is the only sur
vivor ot nine pel sons on board the brig
htzzie M. Merrill, which sailed from
New Voi r lor New Orleans, and lound
ered during a heavy storm. "When she
went down 1 sank with the vessel acon
i iderubh'deptli," says Cap.ain Real, "and
when 1 reached tho surface again 1 saw
the lileboat, which 1 had launched as
soon as the deck was stove, about twenty
yards to the leeward of me, with the
second mate and one sailor in it, but they
could not puli to me to take me in, us
they had lost the oars. I saw the mate
and another sailor get upon some pieces
of wreckage, and 1 got on some pieces
myself which had broken from the deck
ot the alter house. They were about
eight feet long and two teet broad. Ou
these I gradually drifted away from the
lileboat. Had the mate and his only
companion in the boat even a liuht bil
let ot wood they could have turned their
boat so as to reach rue and we would
cling together in life or death. At one
lime 1 had formed the resolution to
jump off the raft and swim to the boat
but the distance was too great and the
sea was running. Lite was too sweet to
take such a risk.
"Toward evening Ijthrew up my hands
every two or three minutes to encourage
them and they returned the signal. We
must have been then a mile apart, and
the gap was steadily widening. As
night was falling and they were fading
from my sight the first feeling of terror
crept over me, as I felt conscious it was
our last separation, the chances of a
rescue being all in their favor. Then I
had only a lew crackers in my pocket
but, strange to say, from the moment I
began to realize my terrible situation
the feeling of hunger departed. All
night I was tossed about till my limbs
so nched that they at last became be
numbed and I began to fear that I would
be washed off. At the same time 1
strained my eyes all that long night a
night ot such awful length that I felt
ttie darkness penetrate my very brain,
and a feeling of bewilderment crept over
me. As I watched and watched for n
light and the duv was not returning, I
thought I should never gnze upon the
light ngain. To add to my distressed
condition I was seized witli an intense
thirst, which was burning me within. I
kept my hair. face, neck and chest well
moistened, and this afforded me great
renei.
" All the years of mv life seemed
crowded into one of those fearful min
utes. At last when I remembered how
much suffering was endured by oilier
men at sea I formed a resolution to have
courage in the hope that my companions
of the previous day might have been
picked up and would cause a S' arch tor
me. Davlight came, but not an otject
was visible. All that day 1 driited
hbout and my situation was more com
fortable, as the sea moderated. I ate
two biscuits and found only one wis
left. I was repeatedly Feized with a
burning thirst and would have given the
world tor a drink. At nightfall a faint
ing feeling came over me and I became
unconscious. 1 do not know how icng
I remained in this conditio-i but I was
.Housed by a sharp pain in the Je'tarm
and found it was caught betwe n the
planks. I passed all that night and the
next day and night without tasting
an thing but the remnini"g biscuit.
At two o'ciock, on Friday afternoon,
my heart jumped with delight whm I
tiglited a sail bearing directly down on
me. My arms had become so power
less that I whs hardly able to signal
with them. At. six o'clock a boat was

Mr. Andersen does not refer to that
which converted the first failure into
the subsequent success, namely, the wet
ting of the kite-string by the thunder
shower. But we cannot help confessing
a sort of satisfaction, on behalf of the
worlii. in being taught to antedate this
triumph of experiment sagacity, though
only by n few days, in favor of an ex
periment made at the suggestion ol
Buffon by M. Dalibard. At Marly-la-ville,
about eighteen miles from Paris.
on the rord to Pontoise, M. Dalibard
possessed a country house, standing; on
a high plain, some 400 feet above the
sea-level. Here a wooden scaffolding
was erected, supporting an iron rod
eighty feet long and a little more than
an inch thick. At about five feet from
the ground this rod was connected with
an electrical apparatus. Shortly after
the whole was fixed, on May 10, 1752
utty-nve days Delore the observation at
Philadelphia), a thunder-storm came on.
M. Dalibard was absent in Paris, but he
had left the apparatus in charge of a
laithlul sentinel, one of his servants, an
old soldier, Coifller by name, with full
instructions. CoiiHer presented to the
conductor an iron key with the handle
bound in silk, and was thus the first
human observer who drew down, by
tentative means, the electric sparks
from the clouds. On May 13, 1752, M.
Dalibard started the Academie des Sci
ences by reading a full report of this
first great experiment made as to aerial
electricity. London Alhmveum.
Painless Death.
Tn one nf hisi lpp.tnra Profpoani. Tow
dull spoke of the great probability that
entire absence of pain accompanied
death by lightning. It is popularly sup
posed that an impression made by the
nerves, a blow or puncture, is telt at the
precise instant it is mulcted, out such is
not the fact. The seat ol sensation is

But this is not Hie only ingredient in the
delay. It is believed that in every act

arrangement of the brain takes place, so
that, besides the interval ot transmis

the brain to put itself in order for its
molecules to take up the motions or
Dnsitions necessary for thn
of consciousness. Helmholts considers
that one-tenth of a second is required
for this purpose. Therefore, in the case
of a whale, one second and one-tenth
would elapse before an impression made
upon its caudal nerves oouid be re
sponded to by a whale fifty feet long.
Feala or Memory.
Nature, an English publication, prints
the leiur oi a correspond' nt who was
struck wthsomeremarkiibli exhibition
ot memory that be lound in the hotels of
tue United Slates. In some ol them, he
says, many hundreds oi persons dine
simultaneously in the same room. Be
fore entering, the guests leave their hats
with a servant standing at the entrance
lor the purpose ot receiving them. The
servant dot s not check the hats or ar
range them in any paiticular order, and
yet he promptly bandseach to theowtier
us he returns from the dining-room. The
most remarkable cise noticed by the
writer was at the Fifth avenue hotel, in
New Yoik. There the attendant, he
writes, sometimes has as many as 500
hats in his charge at one time. Most ot
them belong to persons whom he has
never belore seen. The owners go in
and out in crowds. But without a mo
ment's hesitation, the servant returns
each one his own hat. He explains his
ability to do this by saying that he
forms a mental picture of the owner's
face inside his hat, and that, on looking
at any hat, she wearer's face is instantly
brought before his mind's eye. There
was a person who did remarkable things
of this kind at the Metropolitan hotel,
in New York years ago. lie was a col
ored man of middle age, who sood in
the broad hall or entrance, near the
dining-room door. He was the wonder
particularly of many Westerners who
wero then in the habit ot stopping at
this house when in New York, and his
doings were one of the things that they
talked about on their return home.
More than once did they conspire to de
feat or puzzle him by a largo number
hurriedly crowding into the dining
room together, and at the same time
thrusting at him their hats, many of
which were designedly new and as
nearly alike as possible. But whether
tne conspirators came from the dining
room together as tiiey went in or in
smaller groups, or singly, the ready and
self-possessed master of the hats
Eroniptly, courteously, and unerringly
anded each one to its owner, whose
face he now saw for the second time
These were undoubtedly unusual feats of
memory, but not necessarily feats of a
remarkable memory. They are more
the result of training than the exercise
ot extraordinary natural powers.
A Prevalent Popular Error.
By the burning oi a Chinese wash
house in San Francisco a short time
since, eleven of the occupants who were
asleep in bed lost their lives. The ac
count published in the newspapers de
scribed them as exhibiting, by the posi
tion in which their bodies were found,
the agony they suffered from the fire. As
editors and reporters are considered to
possess more than an average amount of
intelligence and information, it appears
singular that they should propagate or
perpetuate such an error. It may be
safely asserted as a general rule that
persons who lose their lives while sleep
ing in burning buildings, are suff sated
and die painlessly without waking, and
before the flames hnd reached their
bodies. The merest tyro knows what
would be the effect of going to bed with
a pan of burning charcoal in the room,
or the effect cf blowing out the gas in
stead of turning it off. An individual
going to sleep under such circumstances
inhales ihe impure air, which acts as an
anrcsthetic and rapidly converts the nat
ural sleep into stupor and coma, from
which there is no waking. Persons
sleeping in a house whicli takes tire are
smothered in this way by the carbon
iferous gas long before the fire readies
them. Their bodies or remains are
found not in the halls or stairways
where they would have been had they
awakened and attempted to escape but
in bed, or in the spot which the bed had
occupied, and in the very position in
which they had been lying asleep. The
exceptions are mostly noticeable, as
when persons are seen to make attempts
to escape. There is something so horri
ble in the idea of burning to death that
it were well for the community not to
sutler needlessly from sympathy for the
victims. To the relatives of persons who
lose their lives in burning houses, par
ticularly to parents whose children may
die in this way, it may save a lifetime ol
grief to know that death entered the
chamber quietly and performed his task
without so much as disturbing the slum
bers of hia victim. Pad Ic Aitdical and

age was tour feet eight inches, with an
average span of four feet six inches.
The shortness of the span as compared
with the height is a general character
istic that is especially marked in the case
of tho women. Sixty per cent, of the
Dersons measured had the span less than
the height, and thirty-three per cent,
greater than the height, while in only
0 8 per cent, were the height and span
equal. Climate can hardly be made to
oa count satisfactorily for the smallness
of tlte Japanese, for they live in a tem
perate region, though it is subject to
sudden and marked changes. The gen
eral use of charcoal braziers for heating
may have something to do with it by
causing them to inhale tho carbonio ox
ides. The characteristic of their food is
the rarity of meat and the abundance of
salt. Many of the additional causes of
the smallness of the Japanese may be so
remote as to cease to effect the naiion
except by hereditary influence. Popular
Science Monthly.
Japan's Mineral Wealth.
The Japanese have now a completely
organized geological survey, witli a full
staff of native surveyors, under an
American chief, Mr. B. S. Lymun. Tue
first report of progress of this survey for
1878-9, has just been published, uud
contain some accurate and valuable in
formation on the mineral wealth of the
country. Mr. Lyman reckons that
the coal fields oi Western Japan
contain about 620,000,000 tons, and it
one-third be deducted for the working,
there will remain 4(K),OCO,00J tons, re
presenting a value ut the coast oi one
thousand million dollars. Inconsider
able as this is in comparison with the
large and rich coal fields of other lands,
it is quite equal in value to all the metal
products together, except iron. The
copper of all the workable mines scarcely
reaches the value of $750,000,000; the
eight or ten gold and silver mines, which
were formerly worked and may be so
again, may, including the lead, antimony
and tin mines, the workability ot which
is doubttul, be valued at not more than
$250,000,1100. On the other hand, the
value of the iron amounts to at least
$250,000,000,000. The relative import
ance ot the mineral products may be re
presented by the following numbers:
Iron. 1,000; coal, 4; copper, 3; all other
metals (chiefly gold and silver), 1.
'High lalutln'."
Some seminary girls can throw a very
poweriul stream ol words from the en
gine of their cultivated intellects, but
they can't bluff even body. The other
day a fully diplomated miss of eighteen
walked into a music store and asked the
clerk lor a song, which she called
"Demonstrate by oooular proof, the
verdure of my sepulchre ;" and, m he
handed her a copy of "See that My
Grave is Kept Green,"' and raked in
thirty-five cents over the counter, he
smiled biandly and suid : "is the uitty
known as 'Argentine filaments inter
spersed with the auieate capillary attrac
tions a novelty to your repertory?"
Site turned pale for a moment, and then
concluded to go back to school for one
more year.
A Joke on a Clergyman.
Biblical s holars are sometimes en
trapped. In a little town of Bavaria,
the other day, sat an aged f raulein and
her minister, who was, at least, sup
posed to know the Bible by heart. The
lraulcin enjoyed a practical joke in
spite of her age; and the reverend
father, although a thoroughly pious
man, was not a whit behind her. In
deed, there is nothing in the sacred pro
fession which interdicts a good whole
some laugh, and nothing which ought
to make a man so sad that he can see
only the gloomy and cloudy side of life.
Our fraulein said: "Father, you may
have heard that some of the persistent
explorers in the Holy Land have just
discovered a huge heap of bones which
are supposed, on pretty good nuthority,
to be thoso of the children which Herod
killed." "Ah, indeed 1" replied the
minister, thoroughly interested, "I i.ad
not henrd of it." " Yes," continued the
fraulein. "and, strange to say, nearly
half the bones were white as the snow
of tho Alps, while the rest were
almost as black as ebony." "Well,
well!" exclaimed the pastor, " that is
certainly very remarkable." " And the
problem to be solved is," continued the
fraulein, " whether the white bones be
longed to the girls and black ones to the
boys, or vice versa. The explorers
were greatly vexed by the matter and
could arrive at no satisfactory conclu
sion. Now. what do you think,
father P" "Oh," wittily rejoined the
pnstor, "of course the black bones be
longed to the girl babies an the white
ones to the boy babies." We ask the
same question of our readers, and they
had better bettpr guess several times
before they read the rest ot the pnra
grnph. When they have settled the
matter they can refer to the answer of
the fraulein, who, with a merry twinkle
in her eye, said : " Father, you must
have read your Bible to very little pur
pose, for the nceount tells thnt only boy
babies were killed by Herod."

The Child In the Basket.
One day a mother who had been to a
country house near Marseilles returned
with her ton to Marseilles. It was
twilight. Tlio child, eight years old,
had been put into a peach basket
borne by a donkey, and the mother,
f.'Ri-ing tiie child might catch cold (it
was in November), had covered the boy
with a thick brown shawl. Tired ot
running around the country all day,
tjozj and warm under the thick shawl,
the child wus soon asleep and hidden
by the sides of the basket. Althougu
the city gates were reared (there is a
local custom house at the gates of Mar
seilles), the mother, forgetting all about
the child, walked a distance behind the
donkey and did not make him stop at
the custom house to be searched. The
customs officer seeing the donkey jog
on without stopping, suspected he was
laden with smuggled goods, and ran
after hjiu to thrust his sharp steel probe
through the basket. Luckily the
mother observed him, ran forward and
screamed: "Don'tuse yourprobel My
child is in that basket. Mv child is in
that bits-ketl" The child was Adolphe
Tillers, who became in later years
pvesiaent ot tne trench republic.
Tiie first steam engine on this conti
nent was brought from England in 1753.
