The Use of the Great Toe. The negroes of the West Indies us the great toe constantly In climbing. Several years ago, while spending some time at one of the famous resorts in Jamaica, I had an opportunity to ol> •erve the skill with which the black women, who do a great part of the menial labor, carried stone, mortar and Other building materials on their heads to the top of the five-story tower in a part of the hotel not then finished. Much of the unerring accuracy wi<tb which they (women and girls) chased each other up and down the long lad ders, with heavy ioaxls skillfully poised on their woolly pates, was due to the firmness with Which they grasped eacfc rung of tho laddbrs with the gTeat toA tThev did not place the ball or the hoi* low of the root on tne rung, Dut the groove at the Juncture of the great toe • with the body of the foot, and they held fast by making the back of the other toes afford the other gripping surface. In much the same way the Abyssinian native cavalry graep the 6tlrrup.

STRONG STATEMENTS. Three Women Xlelleved of Female Troubles by Mrs. Pinkham. From Mrs. A. W. SMITH, 50 Summer St., Biddeford, Me.: 44 For sevexal years I suffered with various diseases peculiar to my sex. Was troubled with a burning sensation across the small of my back, that all gone feeling, was despondent, fretful and discouraged; the least exertion tired me. I tried several doctors but received little benefit. At last I de cided to give your Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial. The ef fect of the first bottle was magical. Those symptoms of weakness that I was aOicted with, vanished like vapor before the sun. I cannot speak too highly of your valuable remedy. It is truly a boon to woman." From Mrs. MELISSA PHILLIPB, Lex ington, Ind.> to Mrs. Pinkham: 44 Before I began takingyour medicine I had suffered for two years with that tired feeling, headache, backache, no ap petite, and a run-down condition of the system. I could not walk across the room. I have taken four bottles of the Vegetable Compound, one box of Liver Pills and used one package of Sanative Wash, and now feel like a new woman, and am able to do my work." From Mrs. MOLLIS E. HEBBEL, Pow ell Station, Tenn.: 44 For three years I su fifered with such a weakness of the back, I could not perform ray household duties. I also had falling of the womb, terrible bear ing-down pains and headache; I have taken two bottles of Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound and feel like a new woman. I recommend your medicine to every woman I know." HEAVY ARTILLERYMEN. THEIR DUTIES MAKE PRACTICAL SCIENTISTS OF THEM. this Branch of the Service is Now the Most Important in the Army—Ma neuvers That Drive the Kecrult to Desperation Mastery of Big Guns. The heavy artillery is a great branch of the army, and so distinct in its studies as to make it independent of the other branches of the service, lust now the heavy artillery branch is the most important in the army, and it is therefore pertinent to set forth the fact that some military critics have for many years maintained that too much work and too many drills are saddled upon the heavy artillery man. The light artilleryman's drills are many and his duties are heavy, but he is consoled for this in the reflection that he belongs to the crack branch in the whole military outfit. Foreign military critics of eminence have un hesitatingly pronounced the ten bat teries of light artillery of the United States Army to be unsurpassed in the world for horsemanship and rapid and scientific handling of the pieces. But while the American artilleryman has got to be as nimble as an acrobat, and an absolute master of horsemanship, he does not have to use his head nearly as much as hiß comrade in the heavy artillery. An artillery recruit can be rapidly fashioned into an automatic carrier of ammunition, and in the course of a few drills, if he be quick-witted, he can master the duties demanded by his one particular number on a big gun's crew. But it takes years of alertness and attention and consider able study besides for the cleverest recruit tp become a good heavy artil leryman in tho American Army. It is commonly known among artillery men that by the time an artilleryman in the heavy branch has put in three years' enlistment he has picked up only a smattering of the small duties and drills imposed upon him ns the heavy artillery service is at present organized. But men of late years have beeu getting enough of it in three years' experience and if they re-enlist again a great mnuy of them join the "dough-boys" in the infantry regi ments, for the sake of the compara tively easy "one soldier, one gun," duty required of the infantry. In the first place the heavy artilleryman has to become proficient in infantry drills. Up to within a few years ago the heavy artillery brauch was handi capped by tho lack of modern guus upon which to drill. Even at the present time many artillerymen in the heavy batteries have had no oppor tunity to drill upon modern breech loading rifles such as are at Fort I'oint and will be at tho Denver resurvey aud Bolivar Point fortifications. Theie is all the difference in the world be tween a muzzle-loading aud a breech loading great gun, and tho drill upon each guu is entirely different. It re quires about two-thirds of an entire battery to operate one of these big guns. The men are drilled upon them by numbers. The gunner gives his commands and each man has a cer tain work to perform, but each is re quired to master the duties of every member of the gun's crew, and for this purpose he is shifted about from one number to another. As there are a thousand and one or more movements to be executed in getting a great gun served and into firing position, the mastery of the big gun tactics i 3 no small matter for a heavy artilleryman. But there are so many auxiliary drills besides the in fantry formation and drills on the big pieces. The drills called mechanioal maneuvres are the bane of soldiers in this brauch of the service. Properly, mechanical maneuvers belong to the engineers. They consist of mounting and dismounting tho big guns, and the heavy artilleryman is expeoted to master the uses of all the parapher nalia required in this work—almost every style of gun, jack and tackle. It is very hard labor, and besides it is dangerous. There have beeu some serious and a few fatal accidents in the army caused by the attempts of heavy artillerymen, unfamiliar with the work, to mount aud dismount big guns. Another maneuver that drives to desperation heavy artillery recruits aud sometimes old timers, too, is the instrument drill. This is sprung after he has had time to become somewhat familiar with a few of the other drills. It is in this instrument drill that the heavy artilleryman is expected to de velop into a fair amateur scientific. Some of the artillerymen become in terested in the instrument drill, or, rather, the drills on instruments, and take to the study of mathematics for solutions. But the majority of them listen to the elaborate scientific ex planations of the officers as to the uses of the instruments, their mech anism,'etc., and promptly forget all about them until the next instrument drill. The instruments are of all sorts—the aerometer, for example, which is used in heavy artillery for the purpose of ascertaining the strength of the wind in its possible deflection of projectiles; instruments for measuring the initial, muzzle and other velocities of projectiles; instru ments for measuring the power of powders; sighting instruments, range finders, searchlights, electric firing apparatus, and other numerous small gear of a scientific character too var ied to mention. When the heavy artillerymen hnve got well into way with the above sim ple labors and studies, whioh appear to the average man as a lifetime study in themselves, tfiey take Up the block and tackle drill. By this they aro required to learn how to rig any sort oI pulling, hauling or lifting ap- paratas, consisting of euongh pulleys ropes to puzzle the brains even of an old-time sailor. i< FACTS ABOUT TORPEDOES. Various Tliine* Which Influence Their Action and Their Form. Torpedoes ore divided into two gen eral classes—stationary and movable. The former consist of the buoynnt and ground mine, while the latter class is sub-divided into the automobile and dirigible. These terms have been narrowed, until now the fixed class is generally known as the submarine mine, while the word torpedo is ap plied to the movable class. The buoy ant mines are exploded in contact with or very close to the bottom or sides of a vessel under water, while the ground mine nets at a much greater distance. All mines are divided into other classes, which depend for their nom enclature as to whether or not it is under the control of an operator. In all cases the controlling agent is elec tricity. The depth of water in a harbor has much to do with the form of torpedo used, and in ohannels where there is less than thirty feet at high tide the mine case, whioh rests on the bottom, has the shape of the segment of a sphere with a flat bottom. The elec trical apparatus is attached to a buoy, anchored to the case and submerged four feet. The explosive charge is generally about 250 pounds of dyna mite or wet gun cotton. The buoyant mine is a hollow sphere, constructed of steel, having n ring at the top for handling, and directly opposite a hole for loading and inserting the olectrical apparatus. Over this is fitted a cap for attaching the mooring chain and cable. It is generally submerged about four feet below low water, and the explosive charge is 100 pounds of dynamite or wet gun cotton. A mush room anchor holds the mine in posi tion. Another form of sub-marine mine is one which will explode by contact with a ship's bottom; but as these are dangerous both to friend or foe, they are now seldom used in auy scheme for defense.—Collier's Weekly. Big Piece* of String. The largest cable of modern time 9 is the manila hawser which was used to tow the dry dock to Havana. It is twenty-three inches in circumference, but it is by no means the largest that ever has been made, although it has the reputation of breaking the records. There are at least two others of a greater circumference, but both older. One of these had a circumference of twenty-three inches, and was used for the purpose of anchoring the ship North Carolina in the Navy Yard at Brooklyn, while the other was used as a sheet-anchor cable 011 the Ten nessee when she was stationed in the Mediterranean in the sixties. Such an enormous rope was natur ally found to be unwieldy, a fact which was abundantly demonstrated when the vessel encountered a storm in the Bay of Naples. When the Tennessee returned to her native home in America the hawser was sent to' the oakum mills and made into oakum.—Boston Traveller. Rata Drafted Into Service. Tom Maguire is a genius. He is yard foreman at the Laclede Gas Company's plant. A sower pipe lead ing from one of the buildings to the river bank, 160 feet away, became clogged. The pipe was sixteen feet below the surface. Maguire had been thinking about a plan for several days. One night he caught two big gray rats, and these he determined to put into the sewer. They were taken to the mouth at the river bank and re leased. The opening was then closed securely behind them, leaving the an imals with only one chance of life. That was to go straight ahead. And they did. Several more rats were caught and turned into the sewer, un til a dozen were gnawing away in the pipe. The morning after the last de tachment joined the main army water began to trickle from the pipe. Iron rods and steam,were applied. In ten minutes the sewer was clear. —St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Gold Teeth Are Bad Form. Fashion's new fiat is that there shall be no more gold in teeth. Gold in the midst of a "row of pearls," the leaders say, is horribly conspicuous, and it is very bod form. None of the yellow metal shonld show when a society belle or beau laughs, and such a thing as half a front tooth of gold must no more be seen. It is still allowable to use gold where there is no possibility of its showing, but in any other case tho new rule of fashion is exceedingly pos itive. It is not proposed thnt where gold is already in place it shall be taken out, but the "orders" are to use other materials from now on, especially in the case of the upcoming generation. In the place of gold the fashionable dentists are now using a white metal that hardens very quickly and when hard looks precisely like the tooth it self.—New York Herald. Great Britain's dteam l'ower. It is estimated that the steam powei of Great Britain is equal to the united stjpngth of 1,000,000,000 men. The number of persons employed in her coal mines is but 200,000, and of these fully two-thirds dig coal for other uses than for engines, leaving 66,666 men to mine tho coal necessary to do the work of 1,000,000,000. The engines are made by 60;000 men, so that 126,- 666 men furnish the means of doing the work of 1,000,000,000,- the strength of each being thus multiplied nearly 8000 times. This gives to each man, woman and child of a population of 35,000,000 some thirty willing slaves, born fully grown, exempt from sick ness, needing no clothes, eating only fire and water, and costing merely the work of ore man in 8000. fWlllielmlnn'ft Betrothal. The betrothal of Queen Wilhelmina of Holland and Prince Bernhard of Saxe-Weimer will be publicly an nounced on August 31, the day on which Her Majesty will become of age. Her husband to be, it is claimed, is only'twenty years of age, and the yonthfulness of the royal pair iB mak ing them great favorites with the vol atile French people, who are doing their utmost to praise and honor Wil helmina, who is now among them. She has purchased her trousseau in Paris, and has become exceedingly popular among the people there, per haps because of a strong German an tipathy, which, for some unknown reason, she is said to be possessed of. France, it is said, has political rea sons, too, for wanting to be on good terms with the young Queen of the Netherlands. Woman a Railroad President. At a regular meeting of the Direc tors of the Sntro Railroad Company Dr. Emma Sutro Merritt was elected President to fill the vacancy made by the resignation of O. F. von Rhein, who acted as President after Adolpli Sutro was declared incompetent. Dr. Merritt is known as an able business woman. She has been a practicing physician for seventeen years. When the question of guardianship of her father arose she was the choice of the family for guardian. She holds the bulk of stock in the company, it is un derstood; so, after being made a Di rector, her election to the chief office came as a matter of coarse. Dr. Merritt is the first woman to control the affairs of a railroad in this city. But not, however, in this State. Los Angeles has a woman holding a similar position. Dr. Merritt is a woman of culture and broad educa tion, with acknowledged executive ability. After being graduated from the State University she entered Vas sar College. She carried honors with her at the close of her work there. She then entered the Tolaud Medical College, where she was a classmate of Dr. George Merritt, her husband, and subsequently she attended the School of Medicine in Paris. She has been identified with charitable work for several years, and was one of the founders of the Children's Hospital in this city.—San Francisco Examiner. Home Dressmaking. The fashionable girls of New York have adopted a new fad that must fill the heart of mere man with gratoful glee, for it should guarantee him an economical wife. They are actually Bitting down o' mornings—perhaps not every morning in the week, but two or three of them, at least—cutting patterns with great industry and mak ing their own summer frooks. Of course, they cannot make all the fripperies that fashion is demanding this year as the natural right of every pretty girl. The girl of the summer is to be a girl of sporting clothes, and these feminine garments must be tailor made. But there is, neverthe less, a lot that a girl clever with her needle can do in the way of fashioning a portion of her summer wardrobe. For evening wear, after the athletic games of the day are done, there will be dainty, soft frocks, loaded down with raffles, tucks and inserting, still worn, and delicate affairs such as these are what the girls of the day are making. "Sewing bees' 1 have come into fashion again, girls "bringing around their work" and spending the morning with each other, generally staying to lunoh and usually accomplishing a vast deal, though, truth to tell, there are eome girls who think nothing of spending a whole morping on a pair of sleeves, having them come out wrong after all, and fesing dreadfully crosß all the evening in consequence. But the main point is that nearly all the society girls that ore taking this new fad up are doing it well. Scores of pretty, much beruffled frocks and elaborate shirt waists this sum mer wiU bear testimony as to that. There is oue interesting reason why this new fad has come in. It is all because of the ruffles, tucks and gen eral "fluffiness" of evening frocks, it is said. A year ago all the costumes were severe and close-fitting. It was impossible for a girl to make them her self. Now that precise fitting is not needed the society girl is having her chance, and she is certainly making the most of it.—New York Herald. Gossip. The widow of Henry W. Grady has been made one of the directors of the Atlanta Constitution Publishing Com pany. A Ladies' Mending Association has been organized in London, and it is said that it may soon be followed by others. A plan is on foot to honor Mrs. Grover Cleveland by hanging a por trait of her in the Corcoran Gallery, at Washington. English society women are now taking spinning lessons, and the spindle has become a common object of the boudoir. A private car is being constructed at Tien-Tsin for the use of the Empress Dowager of China, who hns a great desire to take a ride on the rnils. Mrs. Ella F. Young is assistant superintendent of the Chicago schools, having thirty-three of the schools coder special supervision. It is said that a French Countess who has lost or never possessed tho art of conversation now employs professional talkers to make her salon a success. -. Octave Tlianet is the pen name of Miss Alice French. Her recommenda tion to writers of short stories is to read the sermons of the old English divines. London theatre managers are hnving a hard time of it in making women take their hats off in the theatre unless they wear ones which won't obstruct the view to the stage. Mme. Madeleine Lemaire, the flower painter, has just been appointed professor of botanical drawing at the Jardin des Plantes, Paris. This is said to be the first French professor ship gained by a woman. The committee of St. Mary's Train ing Home for Young Girls, of which Mrs. Gladstone has been President for sixteen years, have unanimously decided that she may not resign the presidentship, but must retain it as long as she lives. The Union of Greek Women has exported a large qua itity of Greek goods for sale at "the London Depot for Greek Industries," which is under the patronage of the Princess of Wales. The proceeds will be used for the benefit of the homeless and starv ing Thessalians. Two young Brooklyn women, the Misses Nellie Grant and Lucy Wads worth, have struck out for themselves in the not overflowery fields of detec tive service. Miss Wadsworth's iuitinl efforts have been, directed by the New York Dental Society to ferret out young dentists who practise without licenses. Mrs. Ellen Hardin Walworth, of Saratoga, N. Y., one of the founders of the Daughters of the Americnn Revolution, has issued a call to the patriotic women of the United States to form a national corps of sanitary volunteers and an auxiliary for the purpose of aiding tho army and navy in time of war. The General Assembly of Kentucky has passed a bill providing for the appointment of a woman assistant physician at each State insane asylum, for the women's wards, with the same salary and authority as the male assist ant of the same rank. The bill is to take effect at the end of the term ol tho present incumbents. Miss Anna L. Bicknell, the nuthoi of some entertaining recollections ol the second empire, is the daughter ol an American mother and an Euglish father. Her maternal grandfather, Mr. Strobel, of Charleston, was for many years American Consul at Bordeaux, and his daughter was mar ried and his granddaughter was born in France. Latest Designs and Styles. For summer wear capes will be much worn. For trimming pleated mormseline de soie, black lace and gauze ribbon will be in great favor. The most approved style in tailor made suits is the beaded seam, which has taken the place of the old lap or strap. This marks a decided change in the tailor-made costume. The old grenadines, witKsilk stripes of purple, green, blue and burnt orange, are in favor this year. They are being made up with ruffles of black net, edged with satin the color of the stripe. Women are now wearing the short corsets in place of the long ones, which have for years been considered correct. These small and dainty affairs are worn in all the delicate shades, in ad dition to royal purple. Mme. Fashion has some beautiful flower hats-this season, and among her favorites is one of forget-me-nots, trimmed 'at the side with turquoise blue velvet loops and ends, and a large buckle of turquoise and pearls. A hat suitable for large women tliflfc year is of braided straw, the crown be ing encircled by three flounces of turquoise taffeta ribbon, a tight band running around the crown. A spiral of ribbon and bunch of morning glories form the side trimming. The hosiery this coming senson will be as varied in stylo and color as the gowns or headgear. Scotch and shep herd's plaids, as well as striped and embroidered designs, will be fashion ble. A beautiful effect in this line is yellow fleur-de-lis on a black ground. A pretty cloth jacket is of tan face cloth, appliqued in white and gold. On the waist are flounce-shaped de signs from the band to the yoke of white and gold. Many jet bends form the yoke, and around the peplnm at the bottom is a design of beads and white-and-gold applique. A curioite and pretty effect is ob tained by the introduction of faconne scrolls into tartan Bilks. The latest novelty in gossamer is the scroll printed in a lighter color in mousse line de soie. These are being made over silk, the color of the scroll show ing the ground conspicuously. It not infrequently happens that quality marks the division between fashionable and unfashionable. This is the case in checks this year. The best qualities are not twilled, and threads foaming the weft and warp are of equal strength and thickness. Some favorite combinations are .navy blue and cream, black and red ana dark blue and red. A Remarkable CN.
