THE PLATTSBURGH SENTINEL, OCTOBER 20, 1893, NEW HAIRDRESSING. Fashionable Styles For Women, With a Whispered Prophecy to the Sterner Sex. For evening' wear the hair is dressed somewhat higher than it was a little while ago and is being much ornamented. Dia- monds, aigrets, combs andflowersare worn with often very beautiful and strik- ing effect. Waved bandeaux are extremely becom- ing to women with really good, well cut features, accentuating and strengthening these good points. The hair is parted in A BECOMING COIFFURE, the middle and waved down each side of the face. The back hair is done in a large knot. A comb can be added if ornament is considered necessary. The front hair is arranged in small curls which often come to a point in the middle of the forehead. An untidy bang is not now tolerated; every little curl must be carefully arranged and kept in place. To the stronger sex is now vouchsafed by a hairdresser, of words few, but mighty, a whispered prophecy. It is that the signs of the times point to a revival of another one of the fashions of 1830 or thereabouts—In short, that the locks of the Beau Brum- mels of 1894 will form a most intimate ac- quaintance with the curling iron. "Have they not been growing steadily longer?" he says, "and what more natural sequence, therefore, than a desire to relieve the mo- notony of undlversified length? Hence the curling iron." However, even the most ex- ceptional hairdresser is liable to err, and it may be long before curls, other than na- ture's own aggressive and crisp ones, clus- ter round manly brows. A Fashionable "Dessoua." The petticoat is bell shaped, trimmed with festoons of lace and set into a shaped band. It is made of striped silk. No. 2, the under petticoat, is the same style; has hand embroidery trimming. A NEW SET OF USTDEKWEAK. No. 3, chemise, in either lawn or long cloth, with lace frill and straps to tie on the shoulders. No. 4, knickers to match. No. 5, a low petticoat bodice, with gathered waist. The armholes and waist are finished with lace insertion and ribbon bows. The New Skirts and Their Trimming:. It is stated in a general way by Harper's Bazar that there is a tendency to reduce the amplitude of skirts, and furthermore the best dressmakers do not, at least for lightweight dresses, employ stiff facings of haircloth, buckram or crinoline in skirts. The new stuffs manufactured for winter, both in woolens and silks, are of the supple, clinging quality which lends itself so well to natural folds that the announcement made in some quarters seems credible that we are about to return to double skirts, or at least to skirts slightly draped. Braid is employed on substantial woolens, such as serges, cheviots and cloths, set on in spaced rows of the wider kinds or in cluster row's of narrow widths. Some simple tailor gowns have three or four rows of braid placed at 30 inches above the lower edge, about where the folds of the skirt emanate. Grandmother's Chain A grain lu Fashion. The old £u|%joned chain, slender and fine, that our grandmothers wore we are wear- ing now, says a New York exchange; at least those of us fortunate enough to have had a grandmother of such elegant taste. And we wear them just as she did, passed twice around the neck, so that they display a heart shaped locket at the throat and an- other at the waist. The watch is not worn on these chains, which have been chris- tened by the unpoetical name of "dangles," but pinned on the shoulder, or, the latest Wrinkle, inserted in the left hand glove, as formerly it was set into the purse or card Fashion Brevities. Brown is a delightful color, and it is nice to know that it is to be the fashion again this season. Ermine trimaaed wraps are found among the expensive novelties. Watered silk will be the thing for even- ing gowns, and it is quite the exception to find a French visiting dress that is not trimmed with it. Doucet's skirts are just as full and wide as those of Felix, and other people are nar- row. Bodices are narrow, with short basques arranged rather full about the hips. A good deal of fur is being used for trim- ming cloth gowns. A flattish kind of black fur like Persian lamb will be fash- ionable. Drooping shoulders promise to be in vogue for coats this winter. In Custard Making. Four whole eggs are sufficient for a quart of milk. At the same time the thickening depends a great deal on the steady stirring of the custard while cooking in the bain- marie, or the double pan.

The Size of the Sea. There are not many people who, if they were to be asked the question, could tell the size of the salt waters of the earth. The figures are so great that they could only say, with Dominie Sampson, "Prodigious!" Any yet some interesting illustrations and comparisons may be given as to the size of the sea, and here is a simple one found in Golden Days: The whole sea is composed of the Atlan- tic and Pacific, the Indian ocean, the Arctic and Antarctic seas and various smaller bodies of water. It has an area of 140,000,- 000 square miles and would form a circle of 13,850 miles in diameter. The relative size of the areas of the whole surface of the earth, of the whole sea, of the Pacific and of the Atlantic can be rep- resented by a silver dollar for the surface of the earth, a half dollar for the surface of the whole sea, a 25 cent piece for the sur- face of the Pacific and a silver half dime for the surface of the Atlantic A Pog That Could Spell. A great lover of animals has said that dogs can be almost taught to speak. Cap- tain is the. name of a clever dog which, al- though he had not advanced so far as this, could spell his own name and that of his owner's. The letters used in the names were cut out of painted cardboard and placed upon the ground before him, and with scarcely ever a mistake he would ar- range them in the correct order. I do not know how long Captain took to learn this wonderful trick, but I do know that un- limited patience and kindness were used in the teaching. The years have robbed the luster from Captain's eye, and his limbs are stiff and his frame gaunt with age, but he still living, and if he regards you as a special friend you may coax him to spell his name, A Bit of History In a Common Phrase. When one says of anything that it is "not worth a straw," one -means to imply that it is worthless, for what can "be the value of a straw? The older saying was 'not worth a rush," and this brings out the origin of the phrase better. In the days before carpets it was the custom to strew the floor with rushes. When guests of rank were entertained, rushes, green, freah and sweet, were spread for them, but folk of kr,?er degree had to be content with rushes that had already been used, while still humbler persons had to do without any, as not even being "worth a rush." October's Party. October gave a party— The leaves by hundreds came— The Chestnuts, Oaks and Maples, And leaves of every name. The sunshine spread a carpet. And everything was grandf Miss Weather led the dacciag, Professor Wind the band. The Chestnuts came in yellow. The Oaks in crimson dressed; The lovely Misses Maple, In scarlet, looked their best. All balanced to their partners And gaylyflutteredby; The sight was like a rainbow New fallen from the sky. Then, in the rusty hollows, At hide and seek they played; The party closed at sundown, And everybody staid. Professor Wind played louder, They flew along the ground. And there the party ended, In hands across all round. N. R.

A Convenient and Simple Way to Mount Prints of Any Size. The following description of an. album, which dispenses -vita both cardboard and the use of a mountant, will doubtless com- mend itself to many persons interested in photography. It is translated in Popular Science News from a French source. First PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM, provide what is known as a "spring hack , folio 1 '—that is to say, a portfolio like the covers of a book, with a large, strong, hol- low spring back that will grip anything that may be laid between the sides and pushed back into the hollow. The leaves of the album'are made as fol- lows: Good tough paper—manilla wrap- ping paper, for instance—is cut to the re- quired size and folded double, On a band of calico (A) 2 inches wide is pasted a strip of card (B) aa inch wide along the left side. The left hand fold of the manilla paper is then attached to the calico at the right, leaving a space of one-eighth inch of calico between to act as a hinge. Thf ma- nilla paper is then carefully folded over so as to bring its right hand fold under the calico, where it is attached in like manner, leaving the clear space of one-eighth inch before. Four short, diagonal cuts are now made with a sharp knife through the double leaf to hold the corners of the prints, which are slipped in under the pa- per. If prints of different sizes have to be •put on the opposite sides of the same leaf, all that is necessary is to slip a piece of glass down between the folds and cut each side separately. The prints can be changed about if de- s£red, the smaller ones being made to oc- cupy the place of a larger one, etc. The P FANOLINE. r p H E (Composition as prepared for the •*• general market at the * 'CUMBER- LAND BAY WORKS," Pittsburgh, Clinton county, N.

The leaves may now be turn- ed over at will by means of the calico hinge between the strips (C) and the manilla paper (D). ______ Opals Cut In Cameo. Of semiprecious atones none is lovelier than the opal, with its fiery rose and an alternation of green and blue that shame the peacock, while by a change of posture all these starry ardors can be lost in a milky way of whiteness, as suits one's mood. Opal runs, much like a vein of marble, through a matrix of brown iron- stone. When the vein is seen to be thick enough to yield good pieces, the ironstone is split and the opal cufc out But a singularly beautiful art is prac- ticed by a German carver, who leaves the matrix aa a background and cuts the opal lying attached to it, following the sugges- tions of color and form after the well known manner of a cameo. A cameo, how- ever, is opaque and mere brown and white, whereas the opal is translucent and full of color. A dying aurora with a burning sun rising over the sea, a mermaid with the rosy fire in her cheek and the peacock tints in her tail, birds standing by a pool in vio- let twilight, are among this artist's happi- est carvings. - Why Lamps Burn Badly. A lamp burning badly develops more heat than usual, the light is red and the combustion imperfect, producing a disa- greeable odor. Science says this may arise from the air not being properly reverber- ated against the flame, or from the shape of the chimney allowing of back currents, or from the lamp being dirty, the airholes clogged, the wick damp or dirty, the pres- ence of a trace of vegetable or animal oil in the vessels used for filling or from the oil itself, the presence of heavy oils or refining chemicals. When the oils are not homoge- neous, a light and heavy oil being mixed, the heat developed is greater than with either oil separately, this result being more pronounced than when a poor wick ia used J.B.

To Keep a Watch From Losing Time. During the night your watch is quiet, j it were—that is, it hangs in your vest with- out motion or touch. If you don't wind it at night, the mainspring is then relaxed, instead of being in that condition during the day, remarks The Industrial World. By winding it in the morning the main- spring remains close and tight all 'day. It keeps the movement steady at a time when you are handling it, running about the city attending to your daily affairs. A relaxed mainspring at this time accounts for fine' watches varying slightly.

Adelaide Jane Augusta ProutWent mincing on her way;

First at her boots she looked and nextThought of her hat so gay.

Soon from a school she had to passThe boye came running out,

They saw her airs and laughed at her,Adelaide J. A. Prout

Adelaide Jane Augusta Prt—Was seized with sudden fright;

She tried to run, but slipped becauseHer boots were new and tight.

Her hat went rolling far away,Her plait became undone,

Her stockings were both splashed withmud-

The rude boys thought it fan. .

Adelaide Jane Augusta ProutWent home in grief and woe.

Her mother said, "Remember prideMust have a fall, you know.''

Adelaide Jane Augusta ProutFor nothing smart now cares.

She does not mince as out she walksAnd gives herself no airs.

The Size of the Sea.There are not many people who, if they

were to be asked the question, could tellthe size of the salt waters of the earth. Thefigures are so great tha t they could onlysay, with Dominie Sampson, "Prodigious!"Any yet some interesting illustrations andcomparisons may be given as to the size ofthe sea, and here is a simple one found inGolden Days:

The whole sea is composed of the Atlan-tic and Pacific, the Indian ocean, the Arcticand Antarctic seas and various smallerbodies of water. I t has an area of 140,000,-000 square miles and would form a circle of13,850 miles in diameter.

The relative size of the areas of the wholesurface of the earth, of the whole sea, ofthe Pacific and of the Atlantic can be rep-resented by a silver dollar for the surfaceof the earth, a half dollar for the surface ofthe whole sea, a 25 cent piece for the sur-face of the Pacific and a silver half dimefor the surface of the At lant ic

A Pog That Could Spell.A great lover of animals has said tha t

dogs can be almost taught to speak. Cap-tain is the. name of a clever dog which, al-though he had not advanced so far as this,could spell his own name and tha t of hisowner's. The letters used in the nameswere cut out of painted cardboard andplaced upon the ground before him, andwith scarcely ever a mistake he would ar-range them in the correct order. I do notknow how long Captain took to learn thiswonderful trick, but I do know that un-limited patience and kindness were used inthe teaching. The years have robbed theluster from Captain's eye, and his limbsare stiff and his frame gaunt with age, bu the still living, and if he regards you as aspecial friend you may coax him to spellhis name,

A Bit of History In a Common Phrase.When one says of anything that i t is

"not worth a straw," one -means to implythat it is worthless, for what can "be thevalue of a straw? The older saying was'not worth a rush," and this brings out the

origin of the phrase better. In the daysbefore carpets it was the custom to strewthe floor with rushes. When guests ofrank were entertained, rushes, green, freahand sweet, were spread for them, but folkof kr,?er degree had to be content withrushes that had already been used, whilestill humbler persons had to do withoutany, as not even being "worth a rush."

October's Party.October gave a party—

The leaves by hundreds came—The Chestnuts, Oaks and Maples,

And leaves of every name.The sunshine spread a carpet.

And everything was grandfMiss Weather led the dacciag,

Professor Wind the band.

The Chestnuts came in yellow.The Oaks in crimson dressed;

The lovely Misses Maple,In scarlet, looked their best.

All balanced to their partnersAnd gayly fluttered by;

The sight was like a rainbowNew fallen from the sky.

Then, in the rusty hollows,At hide and seek they played;

The party closed at sundown,And everybody staid.

Professor Wind played louder,They flew along the ground.

And there the party ended,In hands across all round.

FOR AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHERS.

A Convenient and Simple Way to MountPrints of Any Size.

The following description of an. album,which dispenses -vita both cardboard andthe use of a mountant, will doubtless com-mend itself to many persons interested inphotography. I t is translated in PopularScience News from a French source. First

PHOTOGRAPH ALBUM,

provide w h a t is known as a "spring hack ,folio1'—that is to say, a portfolio like thecovers of a book, with a large, strong, hol-low spring back that will grip anythingthat may be laid between the sides andpushed back into the hollow.

The leaves of the album'are made as fol-lows: Good tough paper—manilla wrap-ping paper, for instance—is cut to the re-quired size and folded double, On a bandof calico (A) 2 inches wide is pasted astrip of card (B) aa inch wide along theleft side. The left hand fold of the manillapaper is then attached to the calico at theright, leaving a space of one-eighth inch ofcalico between to act as a hinge. Thf ma-nilla paper is then carefully folded over soas to bring its right hand fold under thecalico, where it is attached in like manner,leaving the clear space of one-eighth inch

before. Four short, diagonal cuts arenow made with a sharp knife through thedouble leaf to hold the corners of theprints, which are slipped in under the pa-per. If prints of different sizes have to be•put on the opposite sides of the same leaf,all that is necessary is to slip a piece ofglass down between the folds and cut eachside separately.

The prints can be changed about if de-s£red, the smaller ones being made to oc-cupy the place of a larger one, etc. The

Opals Cut In Cameo.Of semiprecious atones none is lovelier

than the opal, with its fiery rose and analternation of green and blue that shamethe peacock, while by a change of postureall these starry ardors can be lost in amilky way of whiteness, as suits one'smood. Opal runs, much like a vein ofmarble, through a matrix of brown iron-stone. When the vein is seen to be thickenough to yield good pieces, the ironstoneis split and the opal cufc out

But a singularly beautiful art is prac-ticed by a German carver, who leaves thematrix aa a background and cuts the opallying attached to it, following the sugges-tions of color and form after the wellknown manner of a cameo. A cameo, how-ever, is opaque and mere brown and white,whereas the opal is translucent and full ofcolor. A dying aurora with a burning sunrising over the sea, a mermaid with therosy fire in her cheek and the peacock tintsin her tail, birds standing by a pool in vio-let twilight, are among this artist's happi-est carvings. • - •

Why Lamps Burn Badly.A lamp burning badly develops more

heat than usual, the light is red and thecombustion imperfect, producing a disa-greeable odor. Science says this may arisefrom the air not being properly reverber-ated against the flame, or from the shape ofthe chimney allowing of back currents, orfrom the lamp being dirty, the airholesclogged, the wick damp or dirty, the pres-ence of a trace of vegetable or animal oil inthe vessels used for filling or from the oilitself, the presence of heavy oils or refiningchemicals. When the oils are not homoge-neous, a light and heavy oil being mixed,the heat developed is greater than witheither oil separately, this result being morepronounced than when a poor wick ia used

it with clean rainwater in proportion oftwo pounds per gallon. Stir well and letit settle for about two minutes. The grittymatter will now have settled to the bot-tom.

To Keep a Watch From Losing Time.During the night your watch is quiet, j

it were—that is, it hangs in your vest with-out motion or touch. If you don't wind itat night, the mainspring is then relaxed,instead of being in that condition duringthe day, remarks The Industrial World.By winding it in the morning the main-spring remains close and tight all 'day. Itkeeps the movement steady at a time whenyou are handling it, running about the cityattending to your daily affairs. A relaxedmainspring at this time accounts for fine'watches varying slightly.

kissing their lapdogs and kittens will besurprised to learn that great danger lurksin such practices. If alleged investigationson the part of an Italian scientist are to becredited, the cat's saliva by which shewashes her fur is full of minute bacilli sofatally poisonous that rabbits and guineapigs inoculated with it died in 24 hours.The dog's saliva is, if anything, worse, con-taining a greater variety of bacteria. Noris tke horse free from these death dealingorganisms, and thus another source of ap-prehension is opened to the timid and fear-ful.
