While chiffon gave sleeve puffs, and white tissue supplies the veil. Tho veil Is not a positive requirement, but a big majority of young women re gard it ai romantic and becoming, so the criunde against It does not take on much headway. A new sort of veil is circu lar, reaching to tho knees, and Is of very delicate uet edged deeply nlth shaued lace, o can be mad ai elegant aa oa pleases. The romantic 'veil, Id' opposi tion to tho high mounted pompou pictured here, linn considerable favor. llrldenmalds' gowns are much more va ried, and even when simple glrllshness Is aimed at there Ih u chance for a deal of orlginullty. Atnonc the available fanci ful notions are wattcau gowns, shep herdess hats and wreath-bound hair. Three bridesmaids' kowiis may, per perhaps, be likened to the swallow that doesn't make a summer, but It wtuld take this page full of models to show the permissible fancies much mbre fully. The left-hund gown put here was very pale green crepe de chine, very delicately em broidered with gilt threads. Next this 1 a pule blue figured silk, with band trim ming of Ivory lace connected by garni ture of black velvet. Last was a white broadcloth made with triple skirt. On each portion of the skirt was beautiful silver embroidery, nnd this appeared nlso on the Jacket, which was over a gathered white organdie bodice. This last gown was for the maid of honor. flood taste demands that the bride's mother should make no more of display lu her nttlre than Is consistent with a look of grnclous, matronly dignity. This Is true even when the wedding partakes of the character of a pageant. Depth of color and richness of materials arc mat ters In which nlic may Indulge cnfely.

Accord ing to tlit formality of the wedding, tho gown Is choxen, and for n full-dress occa- slou may be open nt the throat. Then long gloves are worn with elbow sleeves. This means that few restrictions are Im posed. Hut one gown of this grade ap pears here. It Is In the Initial picture, and was sketched lu purple satin em broidered delicately with white.

There Is a noticeably sudden uprising against the uniformity and ugliness yes, ugliness Is charged of the tailor-made dress many have come to admire, nnd a lot of novelties may be expected. Three gowns are put here. The first wns n bis cuit broadcloth, with kilt skirt anil bod Ice pleated to match. Lace yoke and col lar, and triple rullln and rovers of the good were other bodice trimming. Next u u pule gray camel's lialr trimmed with black velvet lu bias folds, tiny bows and belt, nnd having a deep yoke of black beaded net.

Hakcrlos, wherein human botngs uro subjected to hitciibc heat, mu now es tablished hi New York, Philadelphia and other American cities, and physi cians speak enthusiastically of, thu re sults attained lu many cases. Thu Inventor of the ulcu, suys a writer In Everybody's .Magazine, owes the dis covery to mi accident. A friend of his had rheumatism. Ho placed his arm lu n metal cylinder mid subjected It to bout every day for some weeks, uud thu rheumatism disappeared. This uet the Inventor thinking. Tho problem to be solved was how to make aa oveu which would bake human flesh with out btirnhiK or cooklug It. Ordinary hot air would burn or cook the tlcsh. lly drying and ventilating thu air this danger Is avoided. Experiments carried on by the In ventor for many years resulted lu thu manufacture of u tierlcH of metallic cylinders, with a central hollow space us receptacle for the body of the person to bu baked. The other cylludcr Is of sheet copper, nickel-plated, aud lined with asbestos to prevent external radi ation of heat. Next comes a steel cylinder, separated from the first by a few luetics, aud lis Interior Is connected with the outer air by three smokestacks which carry off the products of com bustion. Then comes a brass cylinder, perforated with hundreds of tluy holes through which thu hot air, thrown off by thu heated steel cylinder, Is carried Into the central compartment, In which thu patient's body Is placed. This cen tral compartment Is connected with thu outer ulr by means of tubes which carry off thu heated air, and render possible the drying of tho atmosphere lu thu body space. A second system of IN AN OVKN AT 3JS0 I1KCKKK8. tubes runs down below the uiiichlno and suckB up fresh air to replace the moist aud heated air lu the ceutral com partment, thus maintaining a coustaut circulation. The edges of the steel cylluder aro bordered with wood, backed with as bestos. Tho body space (central com partment) Is lined with ribs of cork which run lengthwise along tho brass cylinder and prevent the patient from being burned by tho sides of thu heated cylinder. Patients are placed upott a sheet of tlbrous magnesia. This substance, the Inventor found, could be heated to a high degree, before It would bum ani mal substances resting upon It. A man placed upon tlbrous magnesia may Btand 400 degrees, Fahrenheit, without serious Inconvenience, Under the oven Is a scries of Huiihen burners. The pa tient Is practically baked In a gas stove.

The patient Is wrapped lu au ordinary sheet before being placed on the sheet of llhrous magnesia lu the oveu. The eiuls of the oveu aro covered with cau vas. which renders tho ceutral com partment air tight. The patient's feet are completely Inclosed, but the head Is left out. The application of heat up to about l'JO degrees Is hardly noticeable. Jets of hot air then begin to make themselves felt, and when SCO degrees baa been reached the patient feels aa it red-hot air were ralulug upon him.

Of course, this high degree of heat may not be sustained for any length of time; but It has been maintained with good results for upward of IS minutes. Even 400 degrees has been borne for a short time, lu extreme cases; but It Is un usual to subject ordinary cases to such high temperature. At from 1200 to 300 degrees patients pcrsplro freely, the perspiration being carried off In the form of steam through thu funnels at thu top of thu baking machines. It feels at (list as If one were actually melting away. Tho extremi ties tingle and then seem to become numb for the first 15 or L'0 minutes after "00 degrees have been reached. After that point the sensation Is pleas ant, and one becomes somewhat drow sy. An Intense thirst is experienced. Liquids are not forbidden while under going baking, and the patient may sip Ico witter whenuvur very thirsty. In order to keep the bead cool, bags of tee arc applied from time to time.

Hot baths, whenever they havo been available, havo always been patronized by the Invalid, aud hot air was used by tho Arabians centuries before tho Christian era. As Is well known, tho Arabian doctors'wero really tfo founders of medical science. They employed hot air regularly as a thera peutic, agent, and there aro records of remarkable results from this form of treatment. MOVING DEPOT PLATFORMS. They Are n Greut Coiiveulencouud Stay lie Generally tdopicU. John Perry, un English engineer, Is the author of a rather novel application of the "moving platform" hi connection wltli boarding ami alighting from mov ing railway trains. It had seemed to huu that on thu underground road lu Loudon much time was lost aud a great amouut of energy wasted In stopping aud starting thu trains, lu order to avoid this wastu he suggests tho follow ing device: At each statlou the plat f oi m Is a turntable about 600 feet lu diameter. This turntable Is kept cou tluuously revolving at such a rate that lu rlui travels at the same speed us thu rnovlug tralu. At the center of the turutublu Is a spiral staircase, which, belug at tho center, of course moves very tlowly, by which thu passeuger reaches the main floor. He theu walks toward the circumference. Thu speed at which he Is being carried along grad ually Increases uutll at Uio edge he Is traveling at the rate of the moving train, which ho here tluds seemingly ut rest, and with the doors open. Ho enters, aud as the moving plat form is left behind Uie doors are auto matically closed, uutll Uio uext station is reached, when they are automatical ly opened agalu. With such au arrange ment the truck, of course, at each sta tion would bo built on a curve closely following that of thu turntable for ulwut half tho tatter's circumference. Mr. Perry thinks that with this system it might be expcdleut to havo a contin uous tralu ou such roads as tho under ground of loudon or the elevated of New York City, so that uo matter when a passenger might arrive ho would al ways tlud a cur open aud apparently Aval t lug for hhu. There are a number of obvious dlttlcuUles, not tho least of which would bo the great expense of such a construction, uud the iktugcr which might result from thfe occurrence of any sudden luequdllty between the two motions. It Is not at all Improb able, however, that something of the sort will In the near future lie put to a practical test in London. New York Times.
