A HOMEMADE HAMMOCK.
Amy Oh Cm Make It Mid Ban Some
thing That Will Be a Delight.
It may be easily constructed out of an
ordinary barrel and a sour! length of
hemp rope sufficiently stout to bear the
weight of a grown person.
One should be earefnl to select a
clean, nicely made barrel for the pur
pose. .
If there is no empty one to be found
in the storeroom or cellar of your home,
it may be purchased at any grocery store
for 85 cents or less. Remove the top and
bottom of the barrel, and three inches
from the edge, both top and bottom,
boreholes by means of a gimlet between
the staves all around.
Thus you have a row of holes at each
end of the barrel, through which may
be laoed the rope, inside and out, and
fastened firmly at a chosen stave on
A UNIQUE ENTERTAINMENT.
Former Deaf Mutes Give Hesitations and
Other lNtrfbrtnaaees.
A unique and interesting entertain
ment was provided the other night fur
the frieuds and patrons of the Wright-
Huniason School For the Oral Instruc
tion of the Deaf in New York by the
pupils of Hint Institution. All who par
ticipated were persons who are totally
deaf and would be mutes had they uot
been taught mechanically to speak. The
first part of the programme consisted of
the recitation of "Miles Staudish,"by
Helen Keller, a 15-year-old girl, who
has been both deaf and blind since she
was 18 months old. She is now learn
ing to read the lips of person speakiug
by laying the fingers upon them. She
committed the poem to memory from
the embossed characters nsed by the
blind alphabet When in doubt, she re'
freshed her memory by means of the
raised letters.
Although her articulation is ueowwn
rily imperfect, her words were audible
and intelligible to most of those in the
room. The readina was illustrated by a
series of seven tableaus in Puritan cob
rumo. The pupils who took part iu the
tableaus were Bertha M. Freeman, J.
Pierson RadolirTe, Will J. Quinlau and
Willard K. Taft They were followed
by Katharine Woodward, an 8-year-old
child, in a Greek dance.
The performance was concluded by a
two act farce, written by one of the im-
pi Is, Robert H. Moultou. There were
eight speaking parts, all of which were
enacted by persons who had been taught
to speak. As they were all totully deuf,
it was necessary for them to take their
ones by watching each other s lips. The
performance would have been a very
creditable one for auy amateurs.
Mr. Moulton, who played the leading
part, spoke with great distinctness. He
has been prepared for college at the
school and will enter Columbia next
falL He expects to have no difficulty in
recitation aud will be able to under
stand part of the lectures by watching
the lecturers' lips. The others in the
cast were Bertha M. Freeman, Florence
Shattuck, Katharine Woodward, Carrie
Macniel, Willard K. Taft, Francis Bell
and Mary Nicholas.
The entertainment was the first of the
sort ever attempted at the school, and
Mr. Wright was much pleased with its
success. The preparation for it, he said, '
bad been of great value as a means of
practical instruction to the pupils.

The up to date girl, says the New

Graceful Walking.
It appears that Newport society girls
have formulated a rule for eraceful
walking, which pedestrians will please
copy if they wish to get on in this
world. An intelligent writer thus de
scribes this step: "One of the cardinal
points," she says, "is that the advanc
ing foot should be placed a long way
ahead of the other, so as to make a very
Jong step, almost a stride, and to keep
this stride graceful the foot that is left
behind lifts itself to the toe and takes a
right angle swing. The toe must always
be set down first, or the body will sink
too heavily at each, like the step of a
fat woman. The pointed toed shoe is
preferred if long enough, as it cuts the
air and lends elasticity to the foot"
Them I This is uncommon sense, but
the Newport pedestrian always walks
Just that way. Therefore let every girl
who can forsake her wheel long enough
to walk at all try it She will feel she
is in the swim right off. for Hiss Amv
Bend and Miss Julia Grant, besides half
a dozen other fair ones now doing this
wan step act, are declared to be "bean

KonAr That William Waldorf Astor Is to
Marry Lady Churchill.
They say now that it is Lady Ran
dolph Churchill on whom Willie Wallie
Astor ia about to confer his name, his
Spanish ancestors and a share of his
enormous estate.
It seems a good and reasonable match
enough, but rumor has always had it
that Lady Randolph long since gave her
heart to another to the young guards
man whom she nursed so tenderly
through the consequences of a severe nc
cident.
Willie Wallie would indeed be fortu
nate to capture such a prize, for Lady
.Randolph is still young near 41 clev
er as they make 'em and with an excel
lently well assured position in English
society.
Bnt, then, this is only rumor, which
may be very wide of the mark and may
natter Willie Wallie s vanity to an iu
ordinate degree. Cholly Knickerbocker

A GENUINE DREAMER.
Ia Ills Bleep la Mtdoeeaa Ho Heard War
, .Talk.
A fussy little mnu, who had plenty
of money aud spent it lnviahly, was one
of the saloon passengers who arrived the
other day on the American liner Paris.
He was looked upon as a nuinance by
some uf the panmiiigei's on the voyage,
but when quarantine was reached aud
the passenger read of the president's
message and subsequent events they
chauged their views shout the little
man.
He was one of the few who dared go
on deck during the first days of the voy
age, owing to the storm. After the con
cert on board he gathered about him a
doaen congenial spirits, bought cham
pagne for them and spun a yarn. It was
of a dream.
He had dreamed that there was a
panic on the New York Stock Exchange
and stocks were falling off frightfully.
Aud he vowed there was war talk be
tween the United States and Englumi.
Then the other men around the table
shook their heads gravely and advised
the little man to stop drinking aud go
to bed. He wonld feel better in the
morning. .
But it was different yesterday morn
ing when the paiwrs were thrown aboard
at quarantine. Then the little mini be
came the cynosure of all eyes. He en
joyed it; also the chauipugue that was
forced npon him. . His frieuds oluimed
that he was the only genuine dreamer
extant Owing to certain effects of
champagne, the little man was just able
to maiutaiu a diguioed silence and
could not be interviewed ou dreams.

NATURAL SOFT SOAP.

Bathing Ethics Troubling Folk Ia Parts of
Illinois.
While the authorities at Washington
are struggling with the Venezuelan
question the Illinois state authorities at
Lansing are having troubles of their
own. Here is a question which a blush
ing young schoolma'am, residing in an
interior county, has submitted in good
faith to Superintendent Pattengill :
Which should take a bath the often-
er the farmer or the stndent? If you
think that the student ought to, please
give your reason why. "
The schoolma am explained that her
pupils had been unable to solve the ques
tion. The question remains unanswered
pending the return of Professor Patten
gill to the city, and in the meantime
both the farmer and the students doubt

Nature is well competent when iu the
mood to hold up fully the etid of her
string as a housewife.
These natural soft soap pits, seven in
number and having an average capacity
about 1,000 gallons, are scattered
over an area of two or three acres of al
kali land, situated joxt below the
months of half a dozen hot springs and
two large springs of practically pure lu
bricating oil. The water from the hot
springs and the oil draiunge combining
with each other and acting on the al
kali deposit constitute a natural soap
manufactory, the product of which is
gathered in the adjacent series of earth
cavities, or pits.
Just below the pits themselves is a
wide tract of spongiest marsh soil, in
whose depths the soft soap surplus is ab
sorbed. The product is perfectly mar

development of the Big Horn basin
there will donbtless be a natural soft

Satin ribbon is more generally seen

reasons for its popularity are not only
that it ties easier, bnt that it contrasts

of sheep were grazing. As I pastscd a

looking up at me like a pet dog aud
bleating in a most piteous way. I was
so interested in what I saw that I
stopped, and instantly the sheep gallop
ed to the farther end of the field in the
tame excited way, and then raced back
to me again, bleating and looking up at
me just in the same beseeching way as
it did at first Had it spoken it could
not have been plainer in its request that
I should go with it to the other end of
the field. I could see nothyng bnt a few
trees; still I felt compelled to go with
the sheep, go unmistakably did it let me
know that it wanted me to go with it
So I went, the sheep galloping on be
fore me, till it reached the spot at the
end of the field where I felt sure it
wanted me to go. Till I reached the
place the animal ran round and round
the same particular spot in the same ex

lose my tight, my face wat deformed,
lifeless at it were, my nose wat drawn
to one aide and I presented a pitiable
appearance and never expeoting to re
gain my natural facial expressions. I
employed the best physicians that
could be procured, expending thou
sands of dollars for their tervioea but
oould not obtain relief. At last they
stated my oase wat beyond tbe reaob
of medical skill, and it would be but a
short time until the end would oome.
This certainly wat not very enoourag
ing to me, but I never gave up hope.
In connection with receiving the at
tendance of physicians I have tried
every medicine known to the apothe
cary, but never received any relief un
til Ur. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People came to my assistance. Before
I had taken half of tbe first box the
deformity in my face had left me, and
before four boxes had been consumed
the paralysis bad disappeared entirely
and much to my surprise I felt like a
new woman. I have not taken any
meaicme since last spring, just about a
year ago, and my trouble hat not ap
peared since. I owe my health, my
life, to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
"A short time since my little boy
John was afflicted with St Vitus'
dance. He could not walk across the
room without assistance, in
wond fall all over himself, but after
taking a few boxes ot Dr. Williamt'
Pink Pills, St Vitut' dance entirely
left him, and no traoe of the affliction
it left These pills are worth their
weight in gold. Von may say in this
connection that I am willing at any
time to make affidavit to the truth of
these statements, and furthermore I
will answer any communication con
erning my case, at I consider it noth
ing more than right and jnat that I
snouia assist suffering humanity."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for tale
by all druggists, or may be bad by
