The Philadelphia 71im gives the
following hints concerning the remodel
ing of last year's dresses, and how to
make and mend spring garments:
Careful mothers are bringing ont last
year's garments to see what may be
available—what must Iw made over and
what can be handed down. The fashion
of combination-suits renders the task of
turning and twisting comparatively
easy, einoe something may always be
fonnd to go with what is left of a drea*.
Cheap goods are rarely worth making
over, while all woolen materials of ginxl
quality may l>e used again and again.
These*also pay best for dyeing, and two
dr< sses which have outhvod their use
fulness in their first estate, may, alter
passing through the dyer's vat, be
united to form a serviceable suit of
ldaok or some dark eolor. The dyers
themselves always advise black for dark
bines, browns, violets—indeed almost
ail dark colors will not reeolor success
fully iu any other shade. Dyed silks
rarely look well, and mixed goods, cot
ton and wool, or wool and silk, seldom
pay for the trouble and expense of hav
ing them colored. Some standard houses
refuse to attempt tliem at all. lriali
poplin is aiso rejected, although we have
seen it well Jyod. It shrunk fearfully
through the process, but the New shade
obtained was a good oue and the fabric
Wore well after it was dyed. If the
fabric lie figured tlio figure will always
show through the .lye.
Black woolens should be sponged
with hartshorn water and iroued while
damp. If very dirty wash like fiaunels
iu luke-warm water, aud rinse in indigo
water made as blue as possible. Do
not wring out. but hang up to drip, aud
when nearly dry irou ou the wrong side.
Few lower skirts are now made of the
dress material. Kuglish cambric, cheap
alpaca or foulard silk, are usually em
ployed for the foundation. On this a
facing of the dress goods halt a yard
deep is put, and ou this facing the
plaitiugs, flounces, etc., are set. Plait
ing may be pieced to any extent, the
joints Kwng hidden ui the folds. Bias
folds should be lined with wiggins to
give them the proper set. Be careful
also to cut thorn exactly on the bias.
The arm hides are no longer corded.
lu remodeling ailk or woolen suits the
mi or I pointed revere collar, meetiug at
the top of the darts, will be much use.'..
The popular plastron affords an excel
lent mode of covering the tubbed fronts
of dresses. Stitch it on both fronts
from eolUr to bottom, and work the
buttonholes over the old ones. When
the back drajiery is too scant add a
width of the trimming material ou one
side and bunch it up irregularly. The
accepted trimming for plain skirts is one
or two flounces cat straight and put on
•in inch-wide plaits. These flounces are
usually deep enough to hide ail that
part of the lower skirt not hidden by the
long underskirt. Silesia or drilling is
preferred to linen for dress linmg by
many dressmakers. This is, however, a
matter of ta te. Lir.au and lawn dresses
are not lined, but are made with the
French fell, which prevents the seams
stretching. To make this stitch ou the
right side, trim the seams off close,
turn and stitch up once more on the
wrong side. In all bias seams on gar
ments which are meant to be waslnd,
stitch a narrow, straight strip of cloth to
serve as a stay. Skirt braids should al
ways be shrunk before using, else they
will draw m the wearing. White petti
coats which have cut out on the edges
may be made •' as good as new " by put
ting on a ruffle of thin new cotton or
cambric, ua the material may require.
The nulla may be easily made on the
sewing machine.
Children's white ureases may be
lengthened by adding a band of inser
tion and a scant flounce of Hamburg
work on the bottom. If the dress is
plaited at the back, lengthen the body
bv means of the trimming and piece the
plaiting at the top, where the added
trimming will cover it. Plain princess
dresses, white or colored, may be made
longer by cutting the edge out in van
dykes or tabs and setting a plaited
flounce underneath—a fashion popular
for new suits.
When sheets give way in the middle,
tear them down the center and sew the
outside edge : together, thns bringing
the best part where the hardest wear
comes. Pillowcases are not often worth
cronling. If It seems desirable, put a
large piece of old cloth under the thin
places and dam the broken threads.
Tabled'>ths should be rarof ally darned
w.tb nne linen thread. When too far
gone for mending, use the best parts—
usually the four corners—for traycloths,
and take th." worst pieces for the drawer
or bag in which rags for bandage* and
sickness are kept; old linen rags are in
valuable for such purposes.

The first female candidate for a degree
at the University of .London was unsuc

WorJscre nothing to paint a mother's
love, a m fiber's consolation. A baby's

ro much that in blessing it one is bleesed
by it anawaree.— Ellen B*. Olney.
A silver medal has been awarded to
M iss Mary D. McXamara, of "Clinton,
by t he Humane Society of Massacnusette,
by reason of her bravery last August in
rescuing a daugater of Mr. Levi Burk
from drowning in the Lancaster Mills
pond. Miss McNamara had previou a !y
rescued two other girls from a watery
grave. She ia tut fifteen years of age.
A Paris latter describes a queer dress
thus : It represented an owl, and was
worn by a foreign duchess. The dress,
in the darkest shade of blue satin, was
trimmed with grayish fawu-colored
feathers, the hue of "the night bird. The
fr >nt of tlii droAe was oovered with
fringes in feathers. The head of an owi
with diamond eyes shone in the middle
of the lady's chset, and another owl
ornamented her hair.
Romance of the Custer Massacre.
Colonel Beateen, of the Seventh cav
alry, left the impression in his testi
mony in the it' no inquiry that Dr. Lord
and Lieutenant Sturgis, who were with
Custer, and who*-" bodies were not
found, might be etill alive and with the
Indians. Away down in Maine this ray
of hope fell upon the heart of a young
lady who is in reality, but not in name,
one of the widows of the fatal dash for
viudicatiou. There was more in the
colonel's words to her than he intended.
For the fifteenth time she wrote to Bis
marck, Dakota, pitifully inquiring if
there was any possible hope that Ben
teen's intimation was founded upon fact.
Jler friend nt Dakota answered "No."
If Dr. L>rd wo*, alive aud in Sitting
Bull's c&mp the Oiiadian mounted
polioe would have found it ont long be
fore this. Major Walsh, who is on the
best of terms with the hostiieß, and is
with them a great deal, lis* made every
effort to discover a survivor. He is a
great admirer of the dead Custer, and
his per-ciud feolinga have been heartily
enlisted in the vain search. All that he
ha found has been one horse of the
white-bor3o<K.iapany. Dr. Lord may be
alive, but it is as improbable as .Tnles
Verne'seighiy-day trip urouud the world.
The iady in Maine, however, has au in
tuitive belief that he ie still alive, and
fllie will yet ee him. She reproaches
herself for some little tiling she did,
thiukiug it sent liim off with Custer,
and that he was indifferent to the con
sequences.— Vhienejo Tribune.
Speaking of generosity, you wouldn

PIKE'S PEAK SltiMl* ST ATI OS.
Wonrm ol IS' Hlho* InkukllfJ I'ouleii
•I lh Glnbo.
A Colorado correspondent of the Bos
ton Journal writes ss follows: The
United Stab" signal station at Pike's
peak is the highest signal station m the
world; it is also the highest inhabited
portion of the gloln*. It was opened in
the month of September, 1873. That it
wa a wise provision of the government
in establishing a signal station at this
point is uo longer questioned, the facts
having already demonstrated it-s practi
cability, and the present smvrss prom
ises tlist Pike's peak signal station is
yet to stand at the head ol all astronom
leal and meteorologies! stations in the
world. This point is wonderfully favor
ed by nature for the study of astronomy
and meteorology. The rarity of tlieat
mosphere brings out a remarkable bril
liancy and clearness to the Mais and all
the heavenly lashes. The nights are
most always cloudless, ami cloudy days
are the exception. Nine-tenths of the
storms are below the peak. I'he best
aud most complete report of the last
totsl eclipse of the sun received at
Wuslungtou was the report of Professor
l.oud, of tVilorado college, from ob>er
vstions taken at Pike's peak.
The signal station is now under the
charge of Sergeants Ohoate, Blake ami
Sweeney. These ofiiivrs are detailed
from the army lavause of flu lr peculiar
adaptability aud special qua! 'catsous
for the accurate execution of the nice
duties et taking astronomical aud uie
teorol.wical observations, io Hergeaiit
ltufus Ohoate 1 am greatly milebtcd for
the particulars eutlxdisl in this article.
The summit of Pike's peak contains
sixty acres. It is It,h i''. !<•< tah vr the
level of the -;a. Ou the lugue t point
stands the signal station, a rough stone
building twenty-four by thirty, cue
story iu height. It is divided IUIO four
ro.ius officers' room, kitchen, store
rvHim and woodruom. Aud here in this
bleak sjH>t, nearly twenty miles from the
habitat.ol sof man, though throe miles
nearer the heavenly regions than i.. st
parts ol New England, these men live
the larger part id the yt r. The station
is three miles from the timber line,
where the greater part of vegetation
ceases. Short grass tufted with dehoab
Alpine flower: struggle for a:t existent
agaicat the frigidity of the atmosphere
and creep toward the mem.tain top; but
there are hundreds of acri - . f Cold gray
and reddish rocks where not a vestige of
verdure exists.
Like the dwellers <f the Arctic regions,
the mhabitauts of Pike's peak have but
two seasons—summer and winter. Two
uionthsof summer—August and Sep torn-
ber—tsd ten, long oohl months of win
tor. The gummiT season J>ASM- quick
lr. The Atrni-sphere is eougemal; tlie
mar.v risite>rs at the peak enhance its
tooial life witii JOT, wocdcrniib! aud
mirth. During the summer of 1878 up
wraril of uiue huufiriai people, iu partus
of Irons five to thirty, virited the jwak,
among tliem many ia ties. They regis
terwl from the four quarters of the globe,
and they all expresed aitmiratinu and
astonishment at the grandeur and sub
liiuity of the wonderful views as seen
from the peak. To l>ehold a suur.se
from the ptak is an event of a lifetimts
and for this purpose visitors ofteu re
main over Bight at the station to be
ready to catch the first glimpse of the
sun as it appears above the horizon,
gilding with its bright pays the nioun
tains, hills, valley-' and plains, to the
wonder and delight of the amazed be
holder.
The duties of tue officers ate various.
Seven observations are taken daily; all
storms are closely watched, and each
special and distinctive characteristic
duly Sunrise and snnset de
mand close attention. Every peculiari
ty of the heaven'v regions is viewed and
a record made of the same, aud monthly
reports of these records are sent to
headquarters at Washington. The
present year has been unusually prolific
in sun-dogs, which are said to prognos
ticate earthquakes, subterranean explo
sions, immense freshets and troublous
times. A government office st Pike's
peak is i." stcedire, for the oth vr
buffet all storms and brave all weather®.
Occasionally an electric storm visits the
peak. There is but little thunder ac
companying these storms, but the
mountain eeei~s all on fire. Sergeant
Choate informs ine that when he was
out observing one of these storms it up
peaml as though the whole mountain
top was a sheet of electric flame. It
came ont of every rock and darted
around with wonderful audacity. Jt
played around him, and, as l oexpree*ed
it, shot down his back aud darted out of
each boot-toe. and so completely filled
him with electricity that ne oouid not
retain his foothold, but bounded and
rebounded from the rock like a rubber
ball; lie felt as though a powerful
electric battery was pouring fiery darts
all through htm, ami deeming "discre
tion the better part of valor," he bound
ed into the signal station for preserva
tion. Sergeant Choate was at the spring,
in December, and on December 'il he
left for the jsak, wearing Norwegian
snowshoea twelve feet iu length. It
was a weary task and a dreary trip. The
firat night tint he slept iu the snow on
the mountain's sale. The second night
the mercury fell to twenty degrees be
low zero. He nought shelter in a desert
ed cabin, through which the wind whis
tled tunee anything but agreeable; here
he built a small £re, but avoided sleep,
fearing the extreme euld might produce
the sleep of death. The third day he
reached tho station safely.
The summer months are also occu
pied iu preparing for the long siege of
winter. During the months of August
and September upward of 3,000 pounds
of the nsnal variety of family stores and
about twenty-five cords of firewood ore
snugly stowed away. These are all car
ried to the peak in small quantities on
the back sof the poor, despised burro,
whose head has the appearance of being
encased in cloth and whose ears are
nearly the length of his legs, and who
walks at the pace of a snail, and a very
slow snail at that.
Speculative Trunk Buyers.
The proprietor of the Everett house,
Bt. Louis, recently hid a sale of the lug
gage left at his hotel by frauds an 1 im
pecunious patrons. There were ei~h?y
three trunks and valfs"s offered for s!e,
and the total amount realized was SB3.
A large crowd whs present, but the bid
ding was far from spirited, as the oon
tents of the trunks were not exposed to
view. Mmy laughable incidents hap
pened. One old gentleman persisted
on prying open the trunks with a big
knotted cane, and would only ((exist
when made to do so forcibly. At the
commencement of the sale he was ob
served to be closely eyeing a huge .Sara
toga which had been left at the Everett
house by a female adventuress. When
this trunk was cried he anxiously fom
bled in bis pockets and brought forth
ten cents, with which lie started the
bidding. Finally was knocked down
to him for $2- "Open it, open it!"
yelled the crowd, and he .lid so. Tue
first thing seen was a roll of newspapers,
and the last a lot of bricks, among which
was found a sheet of foolscap with this
inscription on it: "Hold again! and
never got your money back. Yours in
haste." A boy bought a trunk for forty
cents and found in it about £lO worth of
clothes and a valuable breastpin, evi
dently intended fur] a laity. A laborer
purchased a rickety receptacle, held to
gether by ropea. It was full of papers
and letters, the latter written by s lady
to her husband aud full of pitiful tain
of poverty, distress and sicknees. To
enumerate all the mistakes in buying
would take a column. En dice it to say
that a grocer bought some surgical in
struments, a druggist a sack of dried ap
ples and a quantity of beans, and a
market-woman a complete skeleton,
carefully polished and set on wires but
not put together. The Rale wound np
with a free fight, which the police bad
some trouble in stopping. The Nation

The New Haven Register opens the
Ijasebal! season early, and scores a homo
run as follows: "When the head of
the househunt arrives borne at night and
observes his oldest boy hanging his
bead in a corner, he is prepared to learn
that he ha® broken the best vase iu the
house in early practice for the baseball

Klihu was appieutiivd to a blacksmith,
uud it was during his labors at the anvil
that a great deal of his study was ac

mastered French, Latin and (Ireek, and
later he acquired u knowledge of oilier

two years old, being ashamed to ask for
anl. he resolved on working his own
way in lus studies, a • he sat down to
II -HUT'S " Iliad," without note < i com

lcttiu dufluitions. He had never read a
line iu the tusik, but determined that if
he eonht read two lines by har.l study
during the wnolc day, he wonhl never
ak help of any one in mastering the
Greek language. He won a complete
victory, arnt by the middle of the after
noon had read read and committed fif
teen lines to memory.
He went to Worcester, Mass., in order
to nst) the library of tho Antiquarian

speaking on the subjects of temperance,
slavery and cheap o.eau jswtage. In
lHtti he went to England and formed
"The League of Universal Brother

A Town Destroyed by a Flood.
For several uavs Szegedin, the second
commercial town in Hungary, contain
ing bO.fkiO inhabitants, had lccn in im
minent danger of inundation 'mm thn
river Theiss, which flows through the
- place. Several large dykes protecting
the back of the town had beeu bnrst, ami
1 ] the safety of the town then depended on
\ the enibauknient of the Alfold railway, j
to strengthen which all efforts were con
eentrated. At last, however, the water,
j aided by a gale, broke through the
' embankment, and rushed in broad
I stream* toward the doomed town.
Tho scenes that ensued defy descrip
tion, for, to add to the situation, the
i tremendous current undermined the
foundations of the buildings iu which
i , the inhabitants lived or bad sought shel
ter, and milul shrieks and frantic op
! peals for aid that it was impossible to
render, the structures went crashing into
i the flood, carrying with them the in- j
1 mates. Even tho synagogue, to which
i many people had flown for refuge, was
. | not spared by the waters, and fell iu,
i burying hundreds in its ruins. The gas
! works having been submerged, people |
j | were left at the mercy of the torrent, un
, i able to perceive what fresh danger threat
. j eni'd them, and in a state of prostration
| from which death would have been a re
lief. At daybreak the town was many feet
' ' deep iu water, and the inhabitants had
" | begun to realize the extent of their ca
, l lamity. Here ami there a house, loss
substantial than its neighbor*, tottered
1 auil fell with a crash; and it frequently
. happened that at the moment a boat was
t nonring a window from which half-dis
tracted people were appealing for aid,
>i the whole edifice would succumb to tho
torrent, amid the piteous shrieks <>( the*
inmate*. Much u( Hit* inhabitants as
WTW so fortunate a* to te able to do HO
fltd to Now Mzegcdiu and more lwt<l
parts of tlu town, hurriedly crossing the
bridge of tests which separates tin*
now city from the old. AH the Day
wore oa whole roWH of house* foil, ami
the flood gained such headway that it
submerged fully two-thuds of Iho town,
including the citadel nud tin) post ami
telegraph otlliHwi. Besides Uu l syna
gogue, th> orphanage nuortitnhed, bury
ing >tH inmates in tho ruin*, am! two
manufactories were ilimwml to la in
Itauics. No excesses were observable,
however, on the part of the inhabitants,
pi coaultonai y measures having been
taken lor the protection of properly.
Ihtriug the afteruooii the ilama were cut
in several places to allow the water to
ruu off, the flood was still rushing with
au awful roar over the city, and
the practical destruction of the
towu was complete. Happily, how
ever, while there was much excite
ment there was no disorder, and such
of the inhabitants as could be removed
were conveyed to a place of safety by
men who seemed to retain their
presence of mind to a greater degree
than might have been ci|eoted.
Sixty thousand persona were without
a r.s'f to cover them. The upper floors
of all high houses were era ruined with
spectators in momentary fear of death.
One httudrod square miles m the vi

The center of the building was black

How Careless Men Can lie With Money,
A correspondent says : My friend
was a paymaster of a largo railroad
company, and one day he went ont with
830,000 to pay thexnen. The money
wa* wrapped np fn an old newspaper,
and he carried it under his arm. He
stopped at a way-side hostelry for din
ner, and left tho money cn a chair when
he went out. He had not gone many
miles from the place when he missed it
He flew back and asked the woman if
nho had seen a parcel. "There's a bit
of newspaper on the chair beyant.," Raid
she ; " perhaps that it which it proved
to be, and my friend returned a happier
and a wiser man. Another circumstance:
A man I know of lost a roll of bills
amounting to 810,IKK). They, also,
were'tied np in a newspaper, lie told
a friend, and the two talked over the
loss atnl the probability of finding the
money. The friend made him tell all
the ground he had leen over since he
had the money. The last place was
the postofflce. Tho night was wet over
head and slushy under foot. They
stopped at the postofflce, and going to
the place where the man had been, and
fonud two or three torn bit* of newpa
jHir. It was the same. They looked
further, and found the lost treasure. It
had been kicked in turn by every one
who cama into the ofllce, and wbeu
found, was all untied and completely
soaked in slush. They seized it eager
ly and returned to their hotel, where
they spent several hours in cleaning it.
It was all there ; arid at last they got
it dried. Tho grateful man took his
