The student bas a bound less fleld before him. To many a secluded one the Chautauqua roading courses have proved sourcos of uutold, almost uncnding, delight. If the necessity of self-support exists there is u large place for the single woman. Good nur: teachers, artists, musieians, writors, dressimakers and workers in a dozen more lincs of industry are alwavs in dem@fid.

She is an only duughter of a Presbyterian clergyman, and has veen accustomed 10 spending her sum- mers there almost since the beginning of Chautauoua. Her parcuts, feariog that literature in the family might run to mad- ness, proposed a radical change in the future of their daughter. In accordance with this determination art was selected as the most pleasing profession for the young laay, who had aircady developed somo talont in that direction. ~Accordingly, she was sent to an art school in Cinciuuat, ana worked with credit to herself, bui love for the study was not sufliciently doveloped in her soul to mage hor willing to devole her entire time and life toit. This she sonsibiy acknowledged, and in spite of the attondant disappointment to.her friends renouaced art and adopted literature as the ooly satisfactory courso open to her. When this young lady was about thirteen shio wrote her first story ““I'he Esselstines,” consisting of eight chupters, which ber fond #nd encouraging auntic agreed to ouy at the exorbitant sum of ten cents per chapter. Few bave found such a ready publisher, for, unsolicited, in a spirit of mischief ber Aunt “Pansy” engrafted the serial in & book of Christmas stories with the note that shoula any of the readers wish to hcar more of the enuracters they should write to Miss Grace L, glving her aadress. ‘This book was presonted to Miss Living- stone at Clristmas, open at this story. The consternation of the young authoress was highly ludicrous. Already she had out- KTOwWn her romance and was ashamed to own it. Years pussed without any attention being paid 1o the footuoto teliing whero further information coucerning the char- acters could be obimned, but lately Miss Livingstone has receivea quite a number of very embarrassing notes, for she doesn't think “Thke Essclstines” wortbhy of asequel.

Fashion Notes, Velvet sleaves will be seen in many dresses and always of a contrasting colo A very now fabric is called sable clotn, aad is covered 30 closely with fine hairs as to re- semble fur. Narrow ties are worn with bats are worn minus either streamers. London tailors declare that the streat swaeping skirt tratn will disappear with tno opening of Lhe winter season. For a_waveling costume for & young girl either Scowch pliid or beige clotn can be used. The bat is of straw, with wavy, uar- row brim, sod tricumea with velvet koot and tlower soray. One of the most popular materials of tue moment is gengalioe, and the figured benga- lines, both M silk and wool, seom to be quite us well iked s the plain goods. Suraha aud shot silks also show novel effects. The Eton jacket still coutinues popular, though many of the style called by that titlo are Eton in name only, the cut Loing very aifferent from tho so-called Eton jacker, which is ade with swall tauor-cut, close- fitting sleeves. Narrow strands of feit and of silk elabor- braided ‘aro utilized in bonuets aud for the trimmiug of bats; scarfs of boaver are twisted about the erowns of velver and of felt hats, Cocouuut fiber und felt, curiously Wiought together in a ribbon pattern, is an extreme Freno novelty. Ostrich feathers, almost every species of bird and of birds’ ivings aro trimmiogs par oxcollence—ostrich plumes distancing the smaller tips in popularity. As a result the disposition of hat trimmings is somewhat lower than beretofore, aull tuey are spread more evenly over the crown, with a tendeucy Lo wass near the front, A uew English skirt, called the Dunmore, 18 altor the style of the umbrells skirt, and 15 out iu two parts, the gorad portion seamed ou toward tho back, the immediate conter of tho back buving a seam. Five yards of fabric wedium width is neeessary for making. ‘The skirt is lined througnout, and bound or trilled at the edge with velvet. Many of the new Medicl collars are very much sloped in front. This, while conducive 10 comfort, also enables the ‘wearer to iusro- auce a plaiting, or a few soft folds of obiffon orlace. The airy fabric, when of chiffon, is carried around the throat, swatbing 1%, in bonnets. out striogs or fact, and the style suits very many women better than if introduced in javot form. Never did fashion give its votaries a bet- ter opfortunity to utiliza remnants or vari- ous dress fabrica for the making of not only simole costumes, but those of the richest de- scription. One gown Is very frequently made up of & rich combination of velvet sleeves and collar, silk and wool skirt, erepe do Chino vost front and silk passementerie jacket. 1t is impossivle to desorive the manifold varieties of the beaver hat. A comparatively smooth crown is joined to an exceedingly rough brim. In somo examples only part of the brim is in the rough, and the rough sec- tion resemovles an appliquea band rather than u continuous woven surface, Another style is distinguished by a long silky nap ironed smoothly in one direotion, but not so smoothiy as to disguise the unusual lengih of tho bair.

A bounet for an eolderly lady is made of violet velvet ana canary-yellow vel- vet folded together in u skiilful manaer, with a jet ornamont and a vellow feather.

Tho back is simply lmd in two folds from shoulder to belt, at ench side of the center. The fronts without darts do not quite meet the silk Jabot, au are edged with o very fine blue aud gold galloon, The beil skirt is untrimmed. ity THE TRLATE Al indications point to an emphatic suo- cess for Davis & Koogh's merry musical farce, “The Hustler,” on the occasion of its one-uizut engagement at Boyd's New theater this evening. Since last seen in tho city “The Hustler” has been brightened in dialogue, quickonod in movement and fresh- oped with new sougs, dances, medieys and other material. The pieco 1s now pronounced to be very near the summit of perfection in its peculiar spoere, and strikes the prevail- ing public fancy squarely in the center. In “The Hustler” thetypical American schemer 1s pictured with singular vividness and much grotesque humor. The hustier-in-chief “Con” McFadden, is a sort of politician, bunco steerer and lightning rod agent_rolled irto one, and as portrayed by that infinitely witty Hiberaian, John Kernell, the coarac- ter assumes a flssh and blood reality that is at once uniyue and irresistible. The manage- ment promises the same elaborate reprosen- ation of “The Hustler” hero that signalized its brillunt engagemen: at ths Boston theater and its more ent triumph at the Bijou theater, New York. A dramatic treat of no common order is in store for our theater-goors in tho perform- anc2of “Uncle Tom's Cavin’ by the Stuart & Bocik combination. Not sinco the first dramatization of Mrs. Stowe's immorial work took the public by storm has “Uncle ‘lom’s Cabin” been prosentad in such ma nificent style. Numberiess stage adapta- tions of this intensely interesting and thriil- ing story have been produced during the past.thirty years, but it is universally con- ceded that no dramatization approaching in merit that used by the Stuart & Bock com- pany has osen seen. Aud the play is_interpreted by a carafully selected cowpany of artists. As for the scenery it 1s by far the most elaborate and costly “used in any production of “Uncle Tow's Cabin.” A ‘more startling piece of realism than the river scene, with its cakes of frozon ice, over wnich the hunted siave makes her escape with her ohild, was never seen on any stage.

Srliees o A Remarkable Mineral, Litho-carbon, which is a mineral somewhut resembling asphalt, is the most remarkable mineral of its class lkknown. It is claimed, says Iron, that it make a perfect insuldtor; that as a paint it will resist heat or gases of any kind: that it is capable of being rolied into tissue free from odor and prac- tically indestructible when employed in the production of mackintoshes, canvas belting, waterproof tents, etc. It possesses peculiar powers, enabiing it to enter and fill the pores of steel, ren- dering those metals impervious to acids, ete. It is also said to make com- mon leather waterproof, and it can be applied to wood pulp for the transform. ation of that materialinto what looks and acts like ebony or horn. The saturation of a ship’s plates with hot litho-carbon frustrates the attack of barnacles, and the plate will nei- ther rust nor foul. A portion of the smokestack of the steamer Dean Rich- mond, where the heat, through the use of a blower, rises to 8002 Fahren- heit, was pawnted with litho-carbon soveral months ago, und remains undis turbed and unblistered,while other parts of the vessel have necessarily been painted many times. A piece of sheet- iron covered with litho-carbon japan is stated to have been suLjected to an actual heat of 4152 Fahrenheit, without crack or blister, and remained so tenacious that the iron could be bent at any angle without disturbing the glossy surface. For varnishing rail- way und private earriages, painting iron bridges, roofs, steamships, houses, ete., this material acts as an insulator, ana it is reported that it will neither crack nor blister under any known atmos- pheric temperature. At great heat, litho-carbon will soften, but it will not take fire atany point. If all that we hear of this mineral be true, it will form one of the most widely useful substances of its class known. German Papers. According to foreign papers there are now 8,538 journals and magazines printed in Germany. In1891 there were 3,443; in 1890, 8,204; in 1889, 2,082, and in 1888, 2,720, There has been an in- crease since last year, therefore, of 95, and since 1888 of 809, German edi- tors are proud of these statistics, to judge from their comments. The list promi to be greatly increased within the next twelve months, as the conditions for founding papers are more favorable than ever t The freedom enjoyed by the in Germany is today greater tban it was a few years ngo. Strange to say, noone has wded more effectively in bringing about this state of affairs than Prince Bismarck himself, once the in- vetarate enemy of independent news- paper men.
