Oar Consular Servico
"The consular service !s the practical
ind business side of our foreign In
tercourse," writes ex-President Harrl
lon in the Ladies' Home Journal.
"There are more than twelve hundred
persons in the consular service of the
United States. These are located in
the important commercial cities and
towns of the world, and are described
generally as Consuls General, Consuls,
fommerclal agents, interpreters, inar
ihals and clerks. The duties of a
Consul are various and multifarious.
He is the protector and guardian of
American commerce; provides for des
titute American sailors and sends them
aome; he takes charge of the effects
f American citizens dying in his juris
liction, having no legal representative;
tie receives the declaration or protests
ftf our citizens in any matter affecting
their rights; he keeps a record of the
arrival and departure of American
ships and of their cargoes, and looks
ifter vessels wrecked; he reports any
new inventions or improvements in
manufacturing processes that he may
observe, and all useful information re
lating to manufactures, population, sci
entific discoveries, or progress in the
oseful arts, and all events or facts that
may affect the trade of the United
States, and authenticates invoices and
statements of the market value of mer
chandise to be shipped to the United
States. Every Consulate Is a commer
cial outpost; and if the service could
be given permanence of tenure, and
& corps of men of competent equip
ment, it would become a powerful
ftgency in extending our commerce."
WOMAN'S INFLUENCE.
The influence of women upon the
civilization of the world, could never
be measured.
Because of her, thrones have been
established and destroyed. The flash
of her eye, the touch of her hand, and
we have the marvellous power of
women, glorious in the possession of
perfect physical health.

ADMIRED BY QUEEN VICTORIA.
Queen Victoria's newest maid of
honor, Miss Majendie, is said to owe
her entrance to royal favor to a curi
ous chance. She happened to bo
singing in a church choir one day
when the Queen was present at divine
service, and Her Majesty was so great
ly pleased with the fresh sweetness of
the girl's face and voice that she in
vited her to fill the placo coveted by
the young girls of the English aris
tocracy. The position was the last
thing Miss Majendie herself would
ever have expected.—Philadelphia
Ledger.
WORE A BELT OF DIAMONDS.
At the party at Devonshire House,
London, the other day, the display of
jewels exceeded anything of the kind
ever before seen in London. The
Duchess of Marlborough, formerly
Miss Vanderbilt, easily led all others
iu this respect. It was not her coronet
that attracted so much attention
(though that was a trifle higher than
any worn by other paeresses present),
but her unique attraction was a belt of
diamonds, which was rcallly magnifi
cent."
Lillian, Duchess of Marlborough,
once Miss Price, of Troy, N. Y., and
later Mr.s. Haramersley, of New York,
appears on the formal list for the
Queen's garden party as "Lady W.
Beresford." This is part of a toning
down process by which Victoria dis
courages second marriage?, and forces
those who make their own beds to lio I
upon them.—New York Journal. j
MEDICAL WOMEN.
Medical "women are making extra
oidinarv progress in Australia, two
having recently been appoiatsd to the
permanent medical staff of tho Mel
bourne Hospital. Both aro unmar
ried women. There was a good deal
of opposition to the appointment by
doctor?, matron, nurses and patients,
but the manner iu which they took
charge of casualty and other cases
compelled the admiration of those
who had opposed them. Among the
oases attended to by Miss Gamble in
tho casualty ward, we are told, was u
powerfully built man suffering from ;
alcoholism, who was so noisy and vio
lent that Miss Gamble was obliged to
stop him by the action of a powerful
electric battery, which speedily
brought him to his senses—a method
of subduing a troublesome patient
that may be effectual, but has not yet
been brought into uso in hospitals
generally.
now TO SPEND A VACATION.
Every truo wheelwoman will spend
her vacation iu a bicyclo tour. Thero
is nothing to equal it. A party of
girls may easily go alone, for thero is
nothing like wheeling to make one in
dependent. Do not bother with any
baggage. A wheelwoman does not
need anything but her bicyclo cos
tume, with a couple of chaugos of un
derclothing in a satchel in tho bag
gage carrier fastened to tho handle
bar. Below this satchel a small cam
era is to be strapped, for no woman
should return from a tour without
snap-shots of tho prettiest bits of
country through which alio has passed.
Nor must her outfit fail toincludo o. re
pair kit to save her from involuntary
walking. A watch in a leathor case,
to be strapped to tho handle-bar, is
particularly useful in touring, and it
touches tho feminine heart by being
dainty au well. A chain look must
uot be forgotten. Modern Society.
FINEST PEARLS IN EUROPE.
On the occasion of tho grand dinner
to tho Emperor and Empress of Ger
many at Venice by the King and
Queen of Italy, the Queen wore her
wonderful pearl necklace, which has
no equal in tho world. When she was
first engaged to King Humbert, who
was then Prince of Naples, he pre
sented her with a single string of
these precious stones, each as big as a
hedge sparrow's egg, aud of tho most
perfect form and color imaginable.
Margarita being the Greek for pearl,
tho offering had a special significance.
At every birthday since the {King has
presented his beloved consort with an
other string, each one being a little
longer than the last, so that the later
ones now reach far below Her Maj
esty's waist. While on the subject of
pearls, a few other ornaments com
posed of these exquisite jewels are
worth mention.
Tho Empress Frederiok of Ger
many has a very tine collar necklace
composed of thirty enormous pearls of
exquisite shape and color, aud it is
said she wears them both day and
night, as the lustre of these almost
living treasures is immensely en
hanced by contact with the human
form. Our own Queen possesses what
is supposed to be the "pinkest" of all
pearl necklaces, and it is reported to
have been part of the dowry of Queen
Catherine of Arragon. The marvel
ous black pearl necklace of tho Em
press of Austria is well known, and she
has worn it incessantly over since the
sad death of the Archduke Rudolph;
attached to it is a curious black dia
mond, having a quaint effect quite
unique. Ladv I.lcheater has a very
lino string of the same black pearls,
which is often seen iu Loudon draw
ing rooms. Of single pearls of im
mense size the present Pope, Loo
XIII., is possessor of the most famous,
a superb, jewel, given by one of the
doges of Venice to a former holder of
the papal throne; it is arranged as a
reliquary, and has a spike of the
crown of thorns placed behind it in a
gold case. Woman.

FASHION NOTE 3.
White linen bicycle suits have
strapped seams.
Pretty bathing suits can be made up
of black and dark blue mohair.
Tennis suits of bright red can be
worn with a white wash silk shirt
waist.
The newest corset covers have puffed
elbow sleeves to hold out the sleeves of
thin waists.
Batiste, lawn and organdie dresses
have yokes made of lace iusortion and
puffings. These nre trimmed around
the edges with ruffles of lace or white
chiffon.
Fancy flower bonnets are much
worn, but are in many instances maed
upon a foundation of green straw,in
place of the wire frame. Orchids, iris
and pink clover are mucn used in
large erect buuehes iiluced directly in
front.
The loveliest toilet sets can be had
in light blue opaque glass, set iu un
tarnisbable silver, or canary yellow,
or white in gilt. The pincushion and
toilet drapery, if there is any, corre
sponds in color. These sets are not
at all expensive. Crushed morocco in
shades of greeu is fashionable for card
cases, purses, etc., and there is also a
rich dark biae.
Ribbon is immensely used now, es
pecially satin, shot silk and the delicate
chine crepou and soft silk, with misty
flowers. Pretty fronts for wearing
with the opeu coats are arranged with
two lengths of ribbon, Irani three to
five inches wide, fastened to the neck
band, and again at the waist, forming
a simulated waistcoat, with full lace
of chiffon filling in between. Another
and narrower ribbou forms the waist
band, and is finished oil'in one central
or two smallor bows. This is easily
managed by any one, and tho front
constantly varied.
HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
CLEANINO BLACK LACE.
It must be carefully sponged with
gin, or if preferred with green tea,
and afterward wound around and
J around a bottle to dry. No iron must
] be used, as ironing would give it a
i flattened and glossy nppearauce which
would spoil it. It is a good plan to
- fill the bottle with hot water, to hasten
the drying process. The lace must
j not be placed near the fire, as it will
! become of a rusty color and never
| looks well.—New England Homestead.
WOOD FOR SUMMER FIRES.
! There are very few housewives, at
j least in the country, who will bo satis
■ fled with coal fires in summer. They
I may do well onough on washing days,
i when a continuous fire through the
| day becomes a necessity, but for cook
ing a fire made of well dried wood that
will heat up quickly and as quickly go
out is what is required. The wood fire
also ou most farms is cheaper than the
coal. It can usually be grown on
some part of the farm that would
] otherwise be of a little use, and its
' only cost is that of cutting and pre
i paring for the stove. Wood can also
! in part take the place of coal for win
] ter on farms where it is abundant.
The coal market is controlled by great
railway monopolies that oppress) not
I only the miner but the coal consumer.
! Happy is tho farmer who can if ho will
jbe independent of them. We aro
afraid that part of the increasing use
j of coal for fuel is due to dislike of the
winter labor required to prepare the
wood fuel that might be its substitute.
This iu olden times made no small part
I of the winter's work, and though tho
| fuel was burned the work saved buy-
I ing eoal, and therefore paid enough
I to make no small part of the prosperity
j of old fashioned farming in tho days
j when the rule was to only buy what
I was necessary, and what could uot
: profitably be produced ou the farm.—

KEEPING our THE GERMS.
I The object in canoing fruit is to
i find some chemical that will prevent
| the development of bacteria and yet
j be safe when used in a strength neces-
I sary to accomplish this end. Sulicyho
j acid, one part to 1000 part of water,
will prevent the development of bne
| toria, and iu this proportion no ill
I etteot can como from eating what sauco
I ono would ordiuurily tuke at a meal.
| First of all, sugnr is not necessary to
J preserve canned fruit if they aro put
| up air-tight, though the flavor of some
I is improved by the addition of it.
The writer has found the following
! method of canning the cheapest, easi
est and most satisfactory, and would
| recommend it to others : Thoroughly
J heat the fruit, but do not allow it to
I boil. Fill the cans an 1 leave them
I open fifteen to twenty minutes to give
| the fruit time to settle. Then fill up
again, put tho covers on and screw
down tight. In this way fruit will
keep for years, and if kept in the dark
will retniu its original color and form.
Oue can lualco cupboards of. dry
goods boxes for the fruit cans, anil
these may bo kept closed in the cellar.
A word in regard to the closing of
I cans to prevent the entrance of germs.
I When M. Pasteur advanced his theory
I thut all fermentation was caused by
j organisms so minute that they float
[ about in the air, he very eoou an
\ uouueed that according to his experi-
I uaents these infinitesimal objects would
uot pass through cottou. Mauy peo
ple use cotton to tie over tho boiled
lruit while it is still hot, aud have
found that it keeps the germs out as
efficiently as the rubber ring, or any
amount of wax. The writer has a'so
tried this experiment with tomatoes,
corn, lima beans and other vegetables,
and the results were perfectly satisfac
tory, not even a particle of mold form
ing in tho can. In most eases the
cotton was simply tied over the oanful
of hot fruit; in some cases there was
a piece of white paper put ou first to
prevent tho cotton from dropping
down and becomiug juice-soaked. The
latter way is preferable. Take the
eottton just as it comes off the roll,
the thickness being about it as it un
winds, then tie down with strong
cord. This will be found an all-suffi
oient metnod of preserving fruit for
winter use.—American Agriculturist.
RECITES.
Dried Corn—Put the cars into boil

the kernels aud cut from the cob,
spread upon sheets of wrapping or
manilla paper, aud c'ry iu the sun or a
warm (not hot) oven. It can be stored
in paper bags. When wanted for use
put to soak over night and cook very
slowlv for about two hours.
Tomato Toast with Poached Eggs
Place three sliced ripe tomatoes iu a
saucepan over the fire ; add one-half
tcaspoonful salt, three dashes pepper,
I ono tonspoonfut sugar and same ol
j butter ; boil ten minutos. Iu meau
tirne toast five slices of bread, butter
them and place on hot dish. Pour the
tomatoes over the toast aud on each
slice place ono poached egg.
Potato Ribbon—Pare and lay in
cold water one hour five medium-sized
potatoes; then remove from the
water and wipe dry. With a small
knife pare round aud round in one
continuous strip (I think there is a
small machine for this purpose);
handle with care and fry a few at n
time in fresh cottolene. Remove to a
hot dish, sprinkle lightly with salt
and serve.
Breakfast Biscuit—Sift together
one scant quart flour, two heaping
teaspoonfuls baking powder, a (half
teaspoonl'ul salt; mix a half teacup
melted butter in rather less than a
quart of sweet milk; add to the flour,
beating well, until the batter is still
enough to drop from a spoon into a
buttered tin, like drop cakes ; tho oven
should be very hot or tho biscuits will
not be light and pufly.
THE AMERICAN BISON.
A Western Rancher Saj-s It Is Not
Becoming Extinct.
K. A. Bennett, a Texas rancher now
in the East, says that the story that
the great American bison is becoming
extinct is not true. "Why, do you
know," says he, "(hey are ranching
them in Montana and Texas extensive
ly and cn a smaller scale in some othei
places? A man in Montana is experi
menting by crossing the buffalo with
the black-poled Angus cattle. He is
of the opinion that a finer hide can be
obtained by this union.
"Goodnight, the greatest Texas cat
tleman, has fully 2,000,000 acres of
ground raneued in, and is breeding to
bison pure. He has fenced off a big
tract of land, and is well satisfied that
he will make a success of his new en
terprise. He lias nlready sold mauy
animals of his own raising to show
people and to zoos in several places.
Goodnight, too, has a herd of elk. but
they ure not profitable. There Is little
or no sale for them. For meat purposes
the buffalo is not in it. The tongue
makes good eating and portions of the
hindquarters, but the rest of the car
cass is worth little for eating. It would
make mighty good phosphate, though."
Burns* Love for His Wife.
"Burns has been hotly assailed,"
writes Arthur Warren lu presenting
"The Other Side of Robert Burns" In
the Ladles' Home Journal, "because o"
bis alleged Indifference to his wife
(Jean Armour), but the fact Is he was
ardently fond of her. Jean was true to
him, and his true affection never
really turned from her. Jean worship
ped him—literally worshiped him. And
when wo study her devoted life we
must agree that there must have been
much that was admirable In the char
acter of a man who was adored by so
true a woman. Burns' biographers
have paid too sennty uttention to all
this. There is no use in apologizing for
the defects of Bobbie's life, hut there ts
such a thing as insisting too heavily
upon them. * * * Too much has
been made in the thousand stories of
Burns' life of the 'Highland Mary' epi
sode, and too little of what he really
felt for Jean Armour, and of Jean's in
tense loyalty to him and devoted care
of him. The real facts about Highland
Mary will never he known. They com
prise the one episode ot' Burns' life
which Is veiled in mystery. But one
can study the poet's life closely enough
to see that the persecution which in
the early days seemed to hopelessly
separate him from love drove him to
Highland Mary fur solace, and that
Mary's sudden death Idealized that
Highland lassie in his memory. There
was not much more to it, and Jean
never troubled herself about it. There
has been a aid waste of popular sym
pathy over Highland Mary. It Is to
loyal Jean our thoughts should turn.
Burns' love for her and for his children
was very great. That is n pleasing pic
ture of him handed down by one who
saw him 'sitting in the summer evening
nt ills door with his little daughter in
his arms, dangling her, and singing to
her, and trying to elicit her mental fac
ulties.' The little girl died in the au
tumn of 171)5, when her father's health
was fa ilinr."
Magnets as Harbor Defenses.
A well-known scientific expert has
conceived the idea of magnetizing large
bodies of iron, such as worn-out can
uon, l>y meaus of a powerful electric
current and using them to protect sea
ports from belligerent battleships. A
wire leading from the shore to the can
non would communicate that current
when it was needed, and as soon as an
enemy's ironclad attempted to cross
the harbor bar the current would be
turned on. As the ship steamed over
the invisible magnets the two nearest
cannon would rise and cling to the ves
sel with such force as to stop her en
tirely.

Gladness Comes
With a better understanding- of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper ef
forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts—
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
I one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
1 all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that yon have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
I Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
nnd the system is regular, then laxa
tives or other remedies arc not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended tothomost skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most n-eneral satisfaction,
