She Came to Whistle—Adjunct* to the Shirt Walit—The Waist Line—Summer Bre&ktywt Ovwu- Dolly Mad Idem.

Rev. and Mrs. H. C. Vrooman of 1816 Bayard avenue are entertaining a unique

SIra

nd interesting guest in the person of Chika Sakurai, a charming little Japanese woman from Tokyo, who is here to ra! funds for a nonsectarian Bible institute and incidentally to fa miliarize herself with the English language.

Mrs. Sakurai has attracted much attention by hr peculiar and charm ire: manner and the costume of her native country.

With her feet incased in sandals she came down the stairs so silently that •he stood beside a Post-Dispatch reporter, who had call#& on her Tuesday, before he was aware of her presence.

Her manner, while slightly bashful, was charming in its simplicity. She ac oents her words very correctly, although •he frequently hesitates in her speech.

Whenever she comes to a word she cannot pronounce she writes it down, and then, strangely enough, she finds no difficulty in pronouncing it

Mrs. Sakurai has a pretty little romance in her life, and she seems to enloy telling it, pausing now and then to laugh softly as though highly pleased With the recollection.

The father was a nobleman of wealth and prominence 80 years ago. About that time civil war broke out in Japan, and he was on the losing side. His goods were confiscated, his lands taken from him, and at the oloee of the war

he found nself destitute. Then it waa that his da ughter, Mrs. Sakurai, volunteered to uid him. She found employment in a restaurant as a waitress. Her charming manner and the fact that she was of noblo blood soon brought ber a husband, a dashing young naval officer whoso name she now bears*. Married people frequently attend school in Japan, and shortly after her marriage Mrt. Sakurai entered as a pupil in an English missionary school of Japan.

There she was converted to Christianity and was afterward the means of converting her husband, who is now a Christian pastor in Japan.

Mrs. Sakurai speaks highly of Amerioa, but she will not say that she likes this country better than her native land. In fact, there is a wistful look in ber largo almond eyes when she talks of Japan, and it can be easily seen that she is decidedly homesick. "How old do you think I am?" she asked the reporter, with a merry twinkle in her eyes.

The reporter thought 26 or perhaps 80 years was about the figure. Theu sho trips lightly to a table near by and takes from a drawer an odd looking box, from which she draws a photo* graph. "That," she says, pointing to a tin pioturo of a Japanese lady apparently About her own ago, "is my daughter. She is 17 years of age, and I am 42. Don't look surprised. Wo Japanese are cot like American ladies we don't mind tolling our age."—St Louis PostDispatch.

Who WM Kntttted to the Prtot The daughter of a friend of oars, the president of a college, took part in this oommeaoement season in an oratorical oontest Of the Ladies' Literary union fear priae on which six of the brightest and most popular students had set their hearts. She competed last year for the priae and secured second place. Her theme was "A Noble Uimwi." In the middle of the oration she stopped. She

forgotten. A hush fell on the excited audience. A physician preeent took out his watch and watched her at&nd like a statue for fall throe minutes, till, with a burning face, she turned to k*ve the stage, reeled and felL A powerful student of the other •ex caught her in his arms and bore her off the stage to the door. In the hush that followed die partially revived from the swoon, and raising hereof on the big senior's sbookters as he carried ber to the door the struggled to finish ber oration, speaking slowly in an unnatural voice, with dosed eye*. Meanwhile the excitement was so great that several other girls half fainted, and one was carried sendees out of doom

The next speaker overwhelmed the general tendency to hyvterks by delivering a fine oration. When the last at tbe speeches had been spoken and the judges were about to retire, up tbe aisle walked tbe president's daughter, supported by ber mother. She tetok be* place on tbe stage, began tbe oration where «he bad left off and finished in flue style. She walked calmly off, but initantly foil into another swoon from

tbe effect of the strain and bad to be carried out. The judges, of course, awarded her the prize, but it is a matter of doubt if they did wisely in so doing. If she had died or lost her reason the second time, both of which she mast have risked if the account as communicated to us be true, a dreadful responsibility would have been incurred by all concerned. It is quite probable that the effects of that strain will be the seeds of an awful harvest The collapse resulted from general strain and overpreparation.

Tbe girl that stifled her sympathies, marched to the platform in the midst of tbe first crisis and gave an oration that "made the chapel ring with applause" was entitled to a prize.— Christian Advocate.

How She Came to Whistle. Answering the oft repeated question, "How did you first come to whistle?" I simply did it for self support and the education of my children. I had only been with my instructor three months when I made my first appearance in public, now ten years ago. It was an afternoon affair at Steinway hall. New York, with an audience of 2,000 lady teachers. The weather was anything but propitious, the rain coming down in torrents. My mother was that morning called away by a death in the family. It almost seemed as if nature itself was against me. However, I was there on time and went on to do my little part Nevei will I forget the sea cf faces and the nervousness it produced. Knowing nothing then of the care and attention the lips required, they became dry, and it seemed as though I found no sound at all. My one wish was that a friendly trapdoor would kindly open, and end my embarrassment

I was surprised that I pleased the audience, but its lively demonstration showed sympathetic interest, and I felt immensely relieved. I should like to take my lady readers into my confidence with regard to my costume for this (to me) great occasion. The prej* dice of my family for my undertaking carried them so far as to prevent my obtaining assistance from them in this direction and even to the family "treasures" being concealed.

One friend I did have who asked me if I could use lace samples. I rose to it quicker than the proverbial fish, and, hunting up an old satin skirt, set to work. Matching tho laoe as well as possible in regard to looks and width, for no two pieces were alike or over a yard in length, I covered the entire skirt with it Next a black satin sash made tbe foundation for a bodice, and there it was. It only needed the purloining of tho roses from my best hat to blossom on tho shoulder, and I had my first concert dress. I have it now laid oarefully aside, and no amount of money oould induce me part with it With little realization of what I was undertaking, I that day gave the' 'Springtime" made famous by Parepa Rosa, and the "Message of the Nightingale," composed by Laura Sedgwick Collins, who was my accompanist—Mrs. Alice J. Shaw Home Queen.

Adjuncts te the Shirt Waist. Here is a partial list of articles Deep" sary to a creditable appearance in shirt waist and wool or linen skirt:

A perfect fitting corset A perfect fitting oorset cover. A shirt waist of correct style, freshly laundered.

A tight fitting woven belt, with hooks, to which the skirt is safety pinned.

Another belt, fanciful or feather, which covers the inner one and corneals the hooking of the skirt

A collar and tie of correct style. Little opportunity is allowed for choice of neckwear. The turndown col lar with club tie, blaok or white the turn over inch band, with stook, and the high standing collar, worn also with olub tie, are about the. range.

An old style collar will ruin tbe appearance of the nattiest shirt If a woman is cherishing such she may as well give them to the needy. By the time that they are in fashion again she will more than have paid in storage the price of new ones.

Men understand this matter of collars so much better than we da When, for them, an article of dress is out of fashion, be it a collar or a hat or a coat, they givo it away, and thus always are well dressed. I know of women who spend their lives in frantic efforts to keep up with fashions which always are just ahead, because they have last year's things to wear out

The shirt waist style of dressing is tbe most comfortable we have had. But it has its price, which is exceeding care in the details. One may put on a ball toilet nearly as easily.—New York Prose.

The Watat Lta».

The waist line seems to be a peculiarly vulnerable part of woman's attire— at least very few women are able to manage it properly. Belt, band, sash or whatever it be, it is, to judge from appearances, a difficult thing to manipulate to tbe best advantage. Its success may be taken as a sign not only of skillful dressmaking, but of skill in adjusting the garment to tbe wearer, which latter attribute depends entirely upon the wearer herself. Just make a note of all tbe garments badly adjusted at tbe waist line that may be seen on ever so brief a stxoll op Broadway, and you will be astonished at tbe number. Tbe variety, too, is worthy of comment Not just the belt that permits the skirt band to sag way down while tbe shirt waist bogs way up is in evidence, "but tbe sash that gaps and the bodice thai, although guiltless of belt, is losing its connection with tbe skirt in a most unseemly manner. Tbe hall mark of tbe homemade frock may be said to be tbe bodice finish. Ofcouzw one now and then runs across a homemade frook that is all that Is correct fa this detail but, as a rule, no matter bow uncharitable it may sotuxi, #ucb a flock may be known at once by means of its cluauqr and inartistic finish at tihe waist If a woman

Summer Cushions.

Satin and silk coverings are laid away with furs and cloth dresses, and all sorts of inexpensive materials that harmonize with mattings and bamboo furniture abound. Japanese crape in dark blue, with large white conventional flowers wandering over it, is a most effeotive covering for the hammock cushion. It is oheap and enduring. Chintz and cretonne and even plain gingham, which may be made less plain, by tbe way, when appliqued with some laoe design, are among the high favorites of the season.

A Xew Fane*.

A new but not at all pretty fancy is tbe banging of tbe ooin purse from the long lorgnette chain. This fashion has supreeeded the Trilby locket, which was worn in similar conspicuous fashion. At least the purse has in it an element of usefulness and has some small excuse for its existence. The locket had none whatever, for what sentimental woman would wish to have her sweetheart's picture dangling about loosely on the end of a chain?—Philadelphia Ledger.

or a dressmaker wishes to insure a not only smart but trim and neat effect, she must first of all be particular about the waist line.—New York Sun.

Summer Brmktet Gowns. There is such a demand in summer for gowns that will answer far breakfast and for negligee that the utmost plHll is put upon their designing. To dress tightly of a hot morning for breakfast room appearance is more than -the devotee of a fashionable summer resort can endure.

One of the most successful of these negligees was completed in black can vas cloth, very silky, over dark green rilV- The effect was a stylish, changeable color.

The waist of the gown was tight fitting except right in the middle of the front The sleeves were of the large puffed variety to the elbow. From there they were skin tight to the very wrist A ruffle of ~ne net finished tbe hands and the throat

The only trimming on this tasteful gown was a small ribbon of pansy leaf green, dotted with black. This edged tbe luge shoulder revers and oame down tbe front from neck to foot in parallel rows. Aronnd the waist a plain ribbon of the same shade was knotted in a loose bow. The skirt hung full, rather than en traine, and in the back there was the unmistakable many gored effect The skirt and waist were made separately, but sewed together to give the negligee effect of an all in one piece gown. —New York Telegram.

Charming Dolly Madison.

Every one who has been in the White House has noticed and admired the large oil painting of Dolly Madison that hangs in one of the* great rooms. The famous American beauty is shown in a flower garden in recognition of her passion for floriculture, and under the picture are the words, "Dear Dolly." Particular attention is drawn to this picture just now by the issue of a biography of Dolly Madison by a clever woman writer—Maud Wilder Goodwin. Mrs. Goodwin says in the oourse of her book something about Dolly Madsion, which is surely a lesson to every woman. This is the passage: "Dolly Maidson, chermed John Adams as she charmed every one else with whom she came in contact from the beginning to the end of her life. Ho*\r did she do it? Assuredly not by conscious efforts or with prepense intention. It was what she was rather than what she did or said which attracted all who came within the circle of her personal magnetism. Perhaps the best explanation c* her attraction is offered by the remark of one of her nieces, who said recently, 'I always thought better of myself when I had been with Aunt Dolly.'" 'i.*—'«•

The Wheeling Costume.

The oostume of the woman cyclist remains the unsolved problem of society and trade. Fortune, if not fame, awaits the designer of a garb that will insure safety, while it preserves the modesty and grace *^ith whioh tradition sti'l happily- enshrines the fairest of creation.

Tho bicycle academies and the boulevards furnish lamentable revelations of the ineffectiveness of necessity or art to devise to date a costume befitting wheel and rider. To such extremes has individual fancy violated good taste and common decency that a woman becomingly attired rarely fails to attract attention. Indeed, so flagrant has become the abuse of bicycle toilets that many sensitive, self respecting women have been driven from the public thoroughfare and forced to forego the pleasure altogether. Exclusive society women are now rarely found on a wheel save in the suburbs. Their costume has little in common with those met on the boulevards.—New York Commercial.

FOE LITTLE FOLKS.

STORY OF A STORK.

It Carried a Letter to Africa and Brought One Back. A story that comes from Germany is as quaint as it is true.. Some children living in one of the northern provinces discovered that a stork had made its nest upon their roof. Being orthodox little Teutons, they hailed the newoomer with favor, as storks are supposed to bring luck to a house. All the summer they shared their tidbits with their kmg legged friend, which became very tame and companionable.

At the first signs of approaching oold weather the stork prepared to flit to warmer climes. The children were sad at the thought of losing their pet, but their parents consoled them with the assurance that the bird would surely return the next spring. The children, still uneasy at the idea of the stork not being oared for through the long winter, consulted together and evolved a brilliant idea, which they immediately proceeded to put into execution. They wrote a little note in their best German script stating that the stork was very dear to them and begging the good people in whose country it might spend the winter to be kind to their pet and send it back to them in the spring.

They sealed the note, fastened it to a ribbon, tied it round the bird's neck and tucked it under its wing. The next day they sadly watched the stork wing its way toward milder skies. The snow and ice came. Christmas time brought the children gifts and fresh amusements, but their summer pet was not forgotten. When the spring came round again, their little feet used to climb to the roof day by day, looking and longing for the stork's return, and behold! One fine morning there it was, tame and gentle as ever.

Great was the children's delight, but what was their surprise to discover round its neck and under its wing another bright band with a note attached, addressed to 'the children who wrote the letter the stork brought" The ribbon was quickly untied and the missive opened. It was from a missionary in Africa, stating that he had read the ohildren's note and had oared for the stork and thought that children whose good hearts had prompted them to provide for the comfort of a bird through the winter would be willing to help clothe and feed the little destitute children of his mission. A full name and address followed. %*$$$

The children were full of sympathy, and the missionary's note won a golden answer from the family. Other letters oame and went by post between them until by and by the children learned to know the missionary and his little blaok waifs almost as well as they knew the beloved stork that proved so trusty a messenger.—Our Animal Friend.

Ohildren's Floral Parade.

The annual children's floral parade and fete in the gardens of the Royal Botanic society at Regent's park is always a very charming spectacle, but it is becoming proverbially unlucky in its weather, and after its fine day of last year incurred the only wet day of many sultry weeks on June 10. Owing to the continuous downpour of rain the display was din the exhibition tent and under a oanvas covered way, but even these conditions could not destroy its charm. TbQ banners awarded as prizes were given away by the Duke of Teck as the children marohed round the tent

led by the brass band of the Boys' homa The exhibits included some very tasteful designs in floral deooration. Several mail carts, oovered with flowers and drawn by children daintily costumed, were very prettily planned, and the usual tricycles, bicycles and sedan chairs were remarkable for the ingenious variety of their garlands.

A very effeotive group represented a bridal party of the year 1816, in which bridegroom, bride and four bridesmaids were most daintily attired in old world garb eminently suited to their gay floral surroundings. The red banner awarded to the best of all the exhibits was won by Mrs. Garford's graceful design entitled "A Dream of Beauty," of which we give an illustration.—London News.

THE COCHINEAL DYE.

How the Little Inseeta Are Gathered and Prepared For Use. The history of the cochineal insect was for a long time very obscure, and at one time the species employed in commerce was considered a kind of grain. It was not until near the close of the seventeenth century that it was discovered to be of insect origin. The insect is a native of Mexico, where it was raised by the Mexican Indians long before the country was discovered by the Spaniards. It is now cultivated in some of the West India islands and in a few of our western states, but it is in Mexico only that it is raised in sufficient quantities to form an article of commerce. The insect is raised on the cochineal tree, or Indian fig or nopal, which is a species of cactus.

The cochineal is first collected about the middle of December. The insects are removed from the tree with a knife, the edge of which lias been blunted, or are carefully brushed off with a squirrel tail This labor is performed by the women. The insects are usually killed by the application of heat, by baking in ovens or by the heat of the sun.

When the cochineal arrives in the market, it is in the form of a small grain, having a convex and a oonoave side, but with very little resemblance to the body of an insect It is used for dyeing crimson and scarlet and for making carmine. Cochineal alone yields a purple oolor, which, when mixed with a solution of tin in nitromuriatic acid, may be changed to a most beautiful scarlet The discovery is said to have been made in this wise:

A man who was making a thermometer plaoed in his window an extract of cochineal made with boiling water, and in some way a vial containing nitromuriatic acid was broken over it This acid changed the purple dye into a most beautiful dark red, and by experiments this man soon found that the tin dissolved in the acid caused the change of oolor. An ingenious dyer at Leyden, Holland, brought the disoovery to perfection. The secret afterward became known, and a large dyeing establishment was erected in Paris. This accident occurred 800 years ago.—Providence Journal.

Typhoid Fever and Bananas. William C. Ussery, M. D., of St Louis says that the best food for those suffering from typhoid fever is the banana. In this disease, he explains, the lining membrane of the small intestines becomes intensely inflamed and engorged. Eventually it begins sloughing away in spots, leaving well defined ulcers. At these places the intestinal walls become dangerously thin. A solid food, if taken into the stomach, is likely 10 produce perforation of the intestines and dire results will follow. Therefore solid foods or foods containing a large amount of innutritions substances, as compared with nutritious substances, are dangerous and are to be avoided. The banana, although it may be classed as a solid food, containing as it does 95 per cent nutrition, does not possess sufficient waste to irritate these sore spots. Nearly the whole amount taken into the stomach is absorbed and gives the patient more strength than can be obtained from other, food.—New York Tribune

It is actual merit that has given Hood's Sarsaparilla the first place among medicines. It is the One True Blood, Purifier and nerve tonic.

W* Women In Law. The law as a profession for women, is not an idea originating in tho brain of the new woman. The woman lawyer has the sanction of both Scriptural and classic authority. We read in tho book of Judges of Deborah, the wife of Lapidath, a prophetess and judge, to whom the children of Israel came for judgment Aspa' ia of Athens was learned in the law, and in difficult affairs often gave wise counsel to Pericles, her husband. Sentia and Hortensia were well known lawyers of ancient Rome. In tbe fifteenth century women were employed as professors of law in the universities of Padua and Bologna. Portia, the woman lawyer in the "Merchant of Venice, was but the type of a class not unoommon in mediceval times.—Minneapolis Tribune.
