A Dachess’ Clothes.
A public sale of the personal effects of
recent decossed duchess took place
Iately in London. The catalogue, says
the London Queen, describes a vast
number of articles of wearing apparel,
all of which belonged to the lste dows.

wife of the eleventh duke of that title.
A notion of the extensive character of
this wardrobe is given when it is stated
that of shawls alone there were no less
than 80 speoimens, while there are 500
lace and other handkerchiefs, 800 pairs
of slik hose snd 2.000 pairs of gloves, bes
sides other articles in like proportion.
These are divided into no less than
1,600 Jots. Most of them appear to have
never been in use, and scores upon
scores of Landkerchiefs remain nea'ly
folded as when they were originally
purchased. In almost every case the
different effects bear a ducal coronet and
initial embroidered upon them, but be-

The iatest novelty in this kind of
house dresses is the recently imported
** tea pown,” a new garment that can be
classified neither as & dress or & wrap-
per, which has been imported from Eng-
land with the afterncon tea or kettle
dram. These gowns are made exactly
after the pattern of those worn from the
time of the first empire, when a revival
of the classic Greek dress was sttempted,
which ‘asted until about 1840. They |
are made of tinted twilled silks, the

It is the almost universal custom to
keep children in white dresses until
they are five or six years old. Their
short dresses are made of the finest ma-
terials and worn over colored slips of
silk, flannel or silesia. The neck is
high finished with a lace ruflle, or wide
collar and a square yoke. with tucks,

adroit bank robbers would be considered
by these India experts but a bungling
amateur.
The scientific manner in which these
robbers prepare for their raids shows a
thorough knowledge of the dangers of
their calling, and the best guards against
the same, choosing darkness for their
forays. When their dusky bodies are
least observable they remove their
clothes, anoint themselves with cil, and
with a single weapon, a keen-edged knife
suspended from their neck, creep and
steal like shadows noiselessiy through
the darkness. If detected, their gre sy
and slippery bodies assist them in elud-
ing capture, while their rasor-bladed
knife dexterously severs the wrist of
any detaining hand But the most in-
genious device to escape capture is that
shown by he Bheel robbers. It often
happens that a band of these robbers are
pursued by mounted Englishmen, and
unable to reach the jungle, find
themselves about to | overtaken
upon one of thos» open plains
which have been cleared by fire,
the only shelter in
ir
is

sight being the
blackened trunks or leafless branches of
small trees that perished in the flames.
For men so skilled in posturing this is
shelter enough. Quickly
themselves of their scanty clothi
they scatter it with their plunder
small piles over the plain, covering
{ them with their shields so that they
have the appearance of lumps of earth
and attract no attention. This secon.
pished, they snatch up a few sticks,
throw their bodies into a contorted posi-
tion, and stand or crouch immovable
until their unsunspicious enemies have
galioped by.
When all is safe they quickly pick up
their spoil and proeeed upon their way.
The Bev. J D. Woods, gives an inter.
esting account of these marvelous
mimics. I quote the following:
‘Before the English had become
used to these maneuvers, a very ludi-
crous incident occurred. An officer,
with a party of horse, was chasing a
small body of Bheel robbers, and was
fast overtaking tuem. Suddenly the
robbers ra: behind a rock or some sueh
obstacie, whioh hid them for a mo-
ment, and when the soldiers came up the
men had mysteriously disappeared.
After an unavailing search, the officer
ordered his men to dismount beside a
clump of scorched and withered trees:
and the day being very hot, he took off
his helmet sand hung it on & branch by
which he was standing. The branch in
question turned out to be the leg of a
Bheel, wlio burst into a scream of
laughter, and flung the astonished
officer to the ground. The clump of
scorched trees suddenly became meta.
morphosed into men, and the whole
party dispersed in different directions
before the Englishmen could recover
from their surprise, carrying with them
the officer's helmet by way of trophy.”

Wigwam and His Hate,
Mr. Wigwam is a farmer, and recently
one of those agents that infest the coun-
try came along and tucked off upon him
An sutomatic gate. The gate was =o
arranged that the weight of a person
approaching it would cause it to rise,
snd when they had passed under it
down it would come., This gate was
painted red. and the dav after it was
ut in position, a cross bull, owned by
r. Wigwam, discovered it. A bull
somehow hss 8 rcoled antipathy for
that hue, and this spimal no sooner dis-
covered the gate than it made a rush to
gore it. Of course, ss the bull ap-
proached the gate, his weight cansed it
to rise, and he passed under it, and his
failure to hit anything solid, seemed to |
affect him about 28 it does a man to go

reached the top, think there is onestair
more, and step for it, and bring his foot
down so hard that it makes the sole
tingle as if slapped by a shingle, and
leaves the print of the boot on the floor.
When the bull recovered a little and
looked back and saw the gate, which
had come down, in its original position,
he couldn't quite understand sow he got
past it. arid what had happened, and ne

Fretting.
There is one sin which it seems to me |
is everywhere and by everybody under- |
estimated, snd quite too much over-
looked in our valuations of charscter.
It is the sin of fretting. It is as common
a3 air, as speech; so common that un.
less it rises above its usual monotone
we do not even observe it. Watch any
ordinary coming together of people, and
see how many minutes it will be before
somebody frets—that is, makes a more
or less complaining statement of sowe-
thing or other, which most probably,
every one in the room, or the stage, or
the car, or the street co:ner, ss it may
be, knew before, and which most prob-
ably nobody can help. Why say any-
thing sbout it? It is old, it is hot, it is
wet, 1t is dry; somebody has broken an
appointment, ill-cooked a meal; stu-
pidity or bad faith somewhere has
resuited in discomfort. There are
always plenty of things to fret about. It
18 gimply astonishing how much
annoyance and discomfort may be found
in the course of every day's living, even
at the simplest, if one only keeps a sharp
eve out on that side of things. Even
Holy Writ says we are born to trouble
as sparks fly upward, in the biackest of

require until the young pigs are a week

sort may be gi en to them to inorease

thus managed are never ugly and never |
destroy their pigs, Why? Heonuse they |
are in a natural and healthy condition
The grass also increases the flow of |
milk and is, quite often, sufticlent tood |
for a sow while rearing her young. |
Young pigs soon {earn to eat the grass, |

and next to it we prefer oreliard grass

Hapid Charning Undesirable
As a rule the best butter is produced
by using a moderate motion in churn

ment should always be slow, in order
that the oream shall be well mixed to-
gether, After this the motion may he
faster, but its rate of speed should be

to very fast churning is that the larger
butter globules come first and are gather

churning is stopped at this point, and if
continued under a very rapid motion the
butter globules that come first areliable
to be injured. We have never seen any

from the milk of corumon cows, Bul
under anv circumstances very rapid
motion tends to do injury to the cream,
apd especially is this the case when the
butter begins to come. In churning, the
object sought should be to have all the
cream churped alike and in about the
same time, and when the butter appears
in & granular form the churning should
cease. O! course we shall not pretend
to say that inventions and processes for
chnrning very quickly cannot be broug ut
out, and which will make uniformly a
first-class butter; we can only say if
there be such a churr—one that 1s made
to do its work, for instance, in three
minutes, and can in that time produce
the best butter—we have not yet seen it.

The Difference,
From actual experiments made it is
demonstrated beyond a doubt that the
grinding of grain adds one-third to its
value jor feeding purposes. This is a
matier of & good deal of importance to
the agricultural community, and, in
fact, to all classes who have animals to
feed. As far as dollars are concerned,
perhaps it is not of so mueh moment in
the Northwest, where grain is so cheap
and so pirnty, as it is in other portions
of the country, where less grain is
raised, but it is we roy of the consider.
ation of those who have not full bins of
osis and corn. Since the introduction
of cheap feed mills, it is the province of
every farmer lo own one, with which
all grain intended for the stock on the
farm could be ground.

No Fascinations in Snakes.
I have seen, says Nalure, a guinea-
pix, after finding no piace of exit from
the cage, quielly settle itself down in the
midst of the coils of an Australian con.
strictor, shut its eyes and go to sleep,
l'en minutes afterward the snake had
moved and the guinea-pig was washing
its face with its paws. Not once, but a
dozen times, a rabbit has nibbled the
nose of a River Jack viper in a pretty,
inquiring way, heedless of the strong
blows the reptile would administer with
its snout to the impertinent investigator
of that queer-looking object, For fully
ten minutes one day a rabbit sat gazing
at the poised and threatening head of a
puff adder, now and then reaching for-
ward to smell the reptile’s nose, and
ears, and again returning to the * fas-
cinating "" object of its inquiries. If,
