gyenvz TRADE HAS n's DISEASE.
Curious Results of Continued Occupation
on Men \Vho \Vork.
It is well known that there are a
number of dangerous trades which
give rise to serious diseases; but, as
a matter of fact, almost every occupa-
tion has some ailment peculiar to it-
self. A doctor can always tell if his
patient is a baker, for instance, by the
state of his teeth. The hour dust col‘
lects on the teeth, becomes acid, and
gives rise to a special kind of decay.
Bakers“ owing to their irregular life,
sleeping in,'the day and working at
night, and because of the hot airand
dust, are great victimsto consumption.
Blacksmiths, strong as they are, very
often suffer from paralysis of the
_whole right ride from the continuous
‘shock of hammering, and their eyes
become weak from the glare of the fire.
Athletes, strange to say, do not, as a
rule, enjoy long life. Professional
boxers, \vrestlers, gymnasts,‘cyc1ists,
are short lived, and suffer from en—
largement of the heart and diseases of
the lungs. Boilermakers get deaf from
the continual loud noise. Brewers and
brewers’ drivers drink beer in such
large quantities that they. ruin their
livers and generally die young: Brick-
layers and plasterers are very healthy.
and. they are said to resemble, asses in
never dying. Butchers are very strong
and healthy, but they suffer in health
through eating little pieces of rtiw
meat. Politicians are the greatest suf-
ferers of all, the constant dram-drink-
ing giving them indigestion, jaundice,
and nervous diseases, killing them at
an earlier age than members of any
other profession. The sedentary life
ofolawyers, artists, students, and liter-
ary men gives rise to gout, which is
said to kill more wise men than fools;
dyspepsia, which made Carlyle's life
such a torture, and apoplexy, which
carries off hosts of great men.

The Black Bees of Tasmania.
A naturalist, recently traveling in a
little-known part of Tasmania, came
upon a group of eucalyptus trees 260
feet to 390 feet in height, and one
measuring over 40 feet in diameter at
the base.
High up the trunks of these enor-
mous trees were some curious-looking
swellings on the bark, which at first
puzzled the explorer, but soon. were
ascertained to be the nest of a small,
black wild bee of quite a new variety.
The naturalist had one of the smaller
trees cut down, and secured a large
amount of honey of a deep orange
color, having the curious flavor of the
eucalyptus.
The honey
is poisonous in large
quantities; but is said to be most val-
uable medicinally, reducing the weight
and improving thcbrcathing of very
stout people.

Foulnrds for Summer Wear Will be Much
in Vogue.
(3y Spe‘cial Arrangement with the N. Y. Sun.)
That we are to be clad in silk attire
this season seems to be a foregone con-
clusion, ’and the most practical sill;
gown for summer wear is the foulard.
with a dark ground. Such a gown is
never too dressy, and is always suit-
able for either morning or afternoon
wear. Dark blue with a white design
is cool and fresh looking on a warm
day, and will be very much worn
since it is always in fashion. but it has
rivals this season in the plum and vio~
lct shades, which are new in this ma.
tori-a1, and make charming dresses,
with the pretty white accessories of
lace. chiffon and ribbon. Scroll pat
terns in white are a very popular de-
sign on the dark grounds, but some of
the new foulards have a l'aceworls
strip-c, or an elaborate cashmere de-
sign. One of the advance models in
foulard gowns shown in the illustra-
tion is in blue and white, ma-zie with
a new style skirt, tucked down from
the waist around the hips to the back,
where the fulnes-s gathers in, and the
breadths are gored. It is quite loose
from the tafieta foundation skirt at
he bottom, and finished with a wide
hem. The bodice is corded around
with two fine cords, close together,
set in at intervals of an inch and a
half. The silk is shirt-ed slightly on
the cords, but the sleeves are corded
in the same way from the puff at the
top to the wrist. The rather odd
shaped yoke form epaulettes over the
sleeves, and is made of Irish point lace
over white silk, finished around the
edge with a double puff of white chif-
fon. The collar and belt are of white
taffeta ribbon.
Another foulard model shows inset"
tie-nus of white lace set in the skirt
above the Spanish flouncc. which is
wider at the back than in front. This
idea of widening the trimming at the
back is a point in skirt-making which
will be more pronounced as the season
advances and summery gowns appear:
and nai‘row ruffles, which overlap each
each other in front, will spread out on
two or three times the width at: the
back. The bodice of this gown is
tucked in groups up and down across
the front to form a Yoke, and below
this are bands of lace insertion Set
round and rising to form points in the
centre of the back. White taffeta rib-
bon is the ,finish at the neck and belt,
and the bodice opens at one side,
where there is a jabot of lace.
A Quick “'it.
A girl who lives in a little town in
the West, not far from a railway cross-
ing, looked out of the window the oth-
er day and saw a laborer jump from
one track to the other to escape an ap-
proachng freight train. He was ap-
parently dazed by terror, and stood
still, not seeing that behind an express
train was rushing down upon. him.
The girl saw that before she could
make him li.t,lt‘l'stantl his danger it
would be too late. She therefore
threw up her arms, shrieking ,wildly,
“Help! help! help!” trusting to the
impulse which sends a man on the
instant to the relief of a woman in dis-
tress.
"I’m coming!" shouted the Irishman,
springing toward her in time to es ‘apo
the engine as it rushed past. lie
stared back at it, and then at the wom-
an, crying and laughing at the window.
and, taking off his hat with shaking
hands. saidz— _

walked away.
His intentions were as friendly as
hers, but the wit was slower.—.\'ew

THE lNDlAN WAY 0E. DRIVING.
And the Strange Uses to Which They Put
the Gifts Sent Them by Government.
Commenting on the attempt made by
the Government in 1867 to civilize the
prairie Indians by supplying them
with the garb andfood of the white
man, Colonel Bob Dodge, of Dodge
City, says: “The authorities sent the
Indians thousands of sacks of flour:
pantaloons in abundance, and a big
lot of stiff-rimmed hats bound around
the edge with tin or German silver to
hold the rim in shape. They also
sent them a few light-running ambu-
lances. The savages, to show their
appreciation of these magnanimous
gifts from the ‘Great Father,’ threw
the flour on the prairie in order to get
the sacks for breech clouts. They
:ut out the seats of the pantaloons, and
they cut the crowns off the hats and
used them as playthlngs, shying them
in the air, like a white boy does a flat
stone. to see them sail a my
“The ambulances they were proud
of. The Government neglected to
send any harness with them, so the In-
dians manufactured their own. They
did not understand anything about
lines, and, instead. they drove with a
quirt, or short whip; when the near
horse would go too much ‘gee,’ they
whipped up the off horse, and when
he would go to much ‘haw’, they
pounded away at the near horse again,
and so vice versa all the time.
This unique manner of driving kept
the poor animals in a dread run most
of the time. I remember taking a ride
with Little laven. chief of the Ara-
palioes.
13'. but his ponies did not go straight.
so he kept tapping them, now the off
horse. then the near, until finally he
got them on a rapid gallop, and I
thought at one time my head would
surely pop up through the roof of the
anzlmiauce. The country was very
level, fortunately, or I don‘t know
what would have been the outcome."
