Sew rarislan Slumber Kobe. The slumber robe is one of Dame Fashion's recent Parisian novelties. Long, flowing and easily assumed, and wtthai charmingly pretty and bocomlng, she wiio. like the lily, toils not, wraps herself in Its foids when she courts the "sleep that knits up the rivei'd sleevo of caro" and imDarts those roseiJeaf tints to her complexion which nothing but a beauty nap gives.

As simple in cut and iinish as an infant's slip, these robes are yet costiy because of tim exquisite quality of tho material used and also because they aro Imported and are "something now." As seen on the pretty girl in tho illustration, who has just aroused from her siesta, tho slumber robe is, of a fine cnality of China silk. Tho ecru ground is suggi stlvely !ii?ured in large, uncon\:utionalized poppies with jagged petals and their foliage loaves and buds.

In one piece, from throat to hem, this robe Is drawn in slightly at the waist line, whoro It Is adjusted to the wearer convenience by a long, heavy silk cord, linlshed with tassels of the colors that enter into the material of the robe. The full sleeves arc linlshed at the hand, witti a wide, upturning: eufF. trimmed with a fringe of balls the *tzo of an ordinary marble. This fringe, bko the cord about the waist, is of tho colors of tho material. Similar ball

EUROPEANS IN AFRICA,

EaclUlitDen Exploring Inland North of

Sierra Leone—Needs or Traveler*. A British expedition left England last week for Sierra Leone, where they will be joined by about SOO natives. The party will meet a French sxpedition and will go far inland for the purpose of determining the frontier between the French and English colonies in the region north of Sierra Leone. Thev will take about a year to perform the task and it is expected they will march inland 700 miles. The work before them is of an arduous and dangerous nature, as not a few of the tribes are known to be unfriendly and also cannibals. While carrying1 out the survey the party will have to keep an eye on the natives and devote considerable time to the question of food supply.

H. H. Johnson, the explorer, who has been in Africa most of the time since he left school, said in a lecture at Liverpool the other day that men who go to Africa should not be younger than twenty-one nor older than thirty. If they are middle sized and thin, so much the better for them. They must abstain from alcohol, must be temperate in their eating also, and in general must lead very orderly lives if thev wish to live there. He said a great many men who go to tho dark continent indulge in all manner of excesses, which they would not be guilty of at home, and then when they are stricken down they soletnuly ask what can be expected from such a beastly climate.

The British are trying hard to raise $25,000 to place a small steamer on Victoria Nyanza for missionaries, traders, and other white people. They have not raised quite half the sum required, and the work seems to be at a standstill. Stanley has made another appeal for funds, and has called attention to the fact that the Germans succeeded in a short time in raising money enough to build two steamers, which are to be launched on the same lake. If this appeal does not bring the money needed the British committee will return the fund to the subscribers.

WOMEN IN MEDICAL SCHOOLS.

Good Expected of tho Experiment »t John) Hopkins University. The action of the board of trustees of the Johns Hopkins University recently accepting the handsome contribution of the Woman's Medical Fund association to promote tho higher medical education of women in the school of this institution is a very gratifying event in many ways. Originating with tho women of Baltimore, who have been always noted for their encouragement of liboral education and enlarging tho business and professional sohere of their sex. the women of the country havo handsomely seconded the movoment, and it is in a fair way now of winning all the success desired for it by its fair promoters. Not only this, but the promise is good for the proper endowment and secure establishment of a medical school on tho foundation of the Johns Hopkins hospital. Having raised $100,000 with the view to the higher medical education of women, tho ladies are going on with the work to aid all they can the establishment ol tho Hopkins School or Medicine upon a secure as well as a broad basis. The only thing needed was the hearty co-operation or the university trustees, which they have now received, and it has encouraged them to go on with the noble work. In raising the minimum sum of $100,000 the Baltimore society has been largely helped by influential ladies of other cities, where auxiliary societies havo boon formed. The admission of women to the medical school of the university whenever it shall open, on the same terms as men, is an assured thing and a very gratifying result. A local committee has beon started in Washington to solicit funds, with Mrs. Harrison at its head, and similar committees have been enlisted in various other important centers of the country.

THE STUDY OF LIFE.

Where Welt-Known Novelist Flndi Ills Itest Plots. A well-known novelist of New York city was recently telling how he Undg his plots. "I have found nearly all oi them in real life by intercourse with people in all sorts of society. There are no piots io be drawn from the imagination that are equal in interest U) those that can be learned by knowing the actual experiences of many ol our men and womeiiv "Here in New York you can hear of plenty of love-lorn damsels and bold swains you can find hero?s and heroines a-plenty: you can find people whose career has been romantic you can hear of intrigues and their denouement you can meet characters who would shine in the prlatod page you can easily find in the actual experiences of your acquaintances all the material needed for tragical tales or humorous yarns. Why, the best plot 1 e*er wrote up was not of my invention, but was in the story of her own life given me by my cook."
