Yellow and pink are th.i two fnvorite colors for lh roses, the ttrst mitatlag Murnchal Niels and the pink Mormets or B ronesa. The pink roses five the softest light and require more tiKsue p:icr than the yellow. The paper Is purchased in shoots, and a uponl of wire and a few sheets af leaf-gre n paor should also bu purchased. To make a rose, lirst ce: a natural model, say a Mermet. 'then with a pair of sharp ncisson cut out if the pi ik paper two doz i oblong hits, each big enough to completely rover a petal; trim the tops of these into a fall curve, and then cirl them over to look like the ros pevds, by bringing them firmly betwem the thumb and edge of the scissors, as if curling feathers. Tako the wire In one hand, crumple up a bit of the pa ter into a little bunch for uio center. wind with the wire; surround this with tho shortlist pel ills; twist together with he w re; then place on ano her row a rile larger, and soon, until the roso is full; add a littlo scallopnd green outer hiuld, leave about three inchos of wire f r a stem and the rose is com plete. The potals should not be pi no d me over the other, but each row hiolding the joining of the petals ou ho previous one. Three dozen roses, all tho same siz". will make an ordinary shade. To listen them nicely to the wire frame requires some work. Tho frame should lirst be cov -red wiih thick pink paper, neatly pasted and sewn about it. Ihen he roses are placed on in rows, be ginning at the top. The wire is stuck through the paper and fastened to the wiro if the next rose, and each row is thus fastened separately. The under part of the shade is then lined with pink surah silk or pink tissue paper, and ihe fringe of lnce added. Pretty paper shades are made more simply. A double sheet of tissue pa er, largo enough to rest on the top oi Ihe chimney and touch the edge of the wire frame, is cut Into a circle, with a circle in the center tho exact size of the one at tho ton of the frame. Tho aper is then caVcfullv folded Into ai ior ot a circle, and then Into an eighth, and so on until the folds are only a half-inch wide.

Simple anil Ineipenslve Method of Kouuing Them Thlug of lluuuty. "1 can always detect a lady, in any disguise, by alookathorhngor-natls, aid a person of superfine graces of mind and person. It wns a sweeping statement, and, like most such gon- eraliz tions, should be qualified. One might say. instead, that although all persons possessed of handsoraa nnils are not necessarily ladies, yet no lady would allow her nails to lack care. They neol not receive artistic atten tion; but thoy must be cloati and carefully trimmed.

This may be done with advantngo every lime the hands are bathed, for then tho skin is soft and pliable. One may use, for tho pur pose a finger of the other hand cov ered by the towel, or tho blunted ivory end of the little instrument connected with the file. A manicure is able skil fully to 'cut away this superfluous border of the skin," but an unprofes sional person is likely to do it bung lingly, with the result of hangnails. The nails should be filed away at each side to insure their oval shape. Their longth must depend upon the taste of the wearer, although the pianist finds his fashion prescribed by necessity, and is obliged li erally to "cut his claws." In cleaning them, it is best to use a brush or an ivory noinL as sciBping with a sharp knife tends to hiirder. them. Polishing is done by placing a small quantity of powder on the chamois pan, ami ruo binfthe nails back and forth. f)f conrs . there are a hundred clever arts which may be employed in the interests of o' n's finger-ends, but the method given above is quite Miutcient, if carefully and regularly followed.

ETidanee of the Intellectual Depravi ty of Human Katun. Evidence of what may bo called the Iniullectual depravity of human nature is found in tho tendency to follow er rors of citation, even from well-known nit thorn. Some one happens to blunder Into a in limitation, and the Incorrect ver- aion ia sure. In a littlo while, to drive out the correct one from the minds of many person who ought to know bet ter. A few instances t misquotation occur to mo, which I have myself noted, nnd the list might, no doubt, bo easily lengthened. 1 ho first that comes to mind Is Milton a lino at the conclusion of Lyeidaa: "To-mrrow to fresh woods anil pastures new," where fields is commonly subs Ituted I . - I for woods. So slight a change as that of a prep osition puts a somewhat difloront meaning Into Bon Jonson'a memorial verso: "Ho was not of an ago, but for all time." Here for 1 often mado to re place of 1 1 the first clause. We are all supposed to know our Shakespeare, but in ftct a good many persons knowledge is of tho second hand sort that does not enable them to dotoet a misquotation. Whon Mr. Booth or Mr. Irving deliver the "To bo or not to be" soliloquy, some who hear him apeak of "tho thousand nat ural shock that flesh is heir to, may bo surprised into fancying that the net or is making a slip, the substitution of Ills for shocks being so common that tho right word sounds strangely. Inspi'ech and writing how often men tion is made of tha bottrno" whence no traveler returns. Shakespeare wrote of the "undiscovered country, from whoso bourne no traveler re turns." These quotations are from ono of the best-known plays, ofteiiest acted on the modern stnso, and from the most hacknoyed lines in it. Again ivoplo cite from "Tho Merchant of Vonieo," "Tho man that hath no muslo in his bouL" where tho text has "in himself." It. is curious to note that crtaln verses, very familiar to us in their ptvsent shape, are plagiarisms or al lowable borrowings, ti you pteaso from older authors." Tho modification I of the original has sometimes boon an inmrovc mint, sometimes not, but in cithor case tho nowcr form has su planted the old. The modern author 2-ets that possession of tho poetical property which Is nine points of the law. as Campbell has done with the well-known line, "Like angel's visits. fow and far between." This is taulo- lotflcal. for if the visits are far be tween, it Is needless to say they are few. John Norris, who In the latter half of tho seventoeth century, com nitre 1 lllU Hiva luunu daiuiioihi I .1.- a. ..i.iail.. u . slronsr. which soon took thoir flight to "angel's visits, short and brigh'. may never nave written any uuug elso worth the stealing, so it sooms rathor cruel that he should lose the credit of his happiest thought. Later, Robert Blair helped himself to Nor ris' verse, altering "bright" to "far between." It is probable, therefore, that Campbell "convoyed" from Blair rather than from tho original writer. In like mannor Pope mado himself froe with Dry don's verse.

BUHKOS IN MEXICO. Ob of Ilia Moat 1'upnlar anrt Ilullkbla Btem of Transportation. When I say I think the system of tramways, or stroot railroads. In the City of Mexico Is tho most perfect ays tern of transportation I hare seen in the Ropublle, I probably owe tho j.tckaas, or burro, systom an apology. This mook. long-suffering, over-bur-deuod, unfed and much abusod animal ,,iHigcHi 0 nu occasions and for all purposes. At any lime oi tiay ana on all rods leading from tho country to the city may be seen in countless numbers this" Jack-rabbit family wlih every variety of marketing, Inolulin-r fruit, ndlk. poultry in ,tom., brick, burned and unburned, .... , . . i and. In faot, every thing that is move able Is piled on these forlorn, friend less animals and caVrled to and from the couniry. It is said before the In troductions of railroads that as many as 50.000 were In use In and around (he City of Mexico alone, and the snmo systom of transportation prevails throughout tho R publlo. The most amusing thing I have 800n n the natives is tho ingenuity Ihoy display In paoklng thoso burros with any tiling they want to trans port. Lumber that is. too long to bal ance thev attach to each side of tho d 'likey and let one end drag on tho ground, mid in that way haul It fifty miles or mora from the mountains to the city, or tho mines, as tho case may bo. There Is another class of transporta tion In Mexico, which should not bo overlooked, as It enters largely Into competition with all others, v,i : that by which the heads and backs oi men aiid women nro used. It Is surprising to see what hoavy burdens are carried by both sexes, to nnd from the coun try, tho women, generally, with a piipooso on the back, and iroquoniiy with one or two more children a shado larger following closa behind hor, and she behind a man, who is driving a herd of burros, all alike loaded to their fullest capacity, and mnklng low railroad time. There Is another class known as cargadoors, llconsod by the government and usually em ployed in cltios. They nro Intrusted with handling all valuable packagos, moving household goods, carrying mossagos, transferring people on theli backs across tho atreels that are often overflowed In the rainy soason, etc, etc. They are, In short, a kind of con fidential transportation company, and the only one I havo over hoard of tn Mexico. As there are fow navigable lakes or rivers of importance in the Interior of Mexico, transportation by witter cuts but a little fleure, of course. Still, tho native Indian oontlnuos to iillll.o what there Is. The famous Lnko Tezuuco, upon which Cortes launched his littlo fleet In his attack upon tho City of Mexico In 1520. and Into which the drainage of the city l emptied, still affords navigation for small craft not drawing more than two foot of water, and is accessible to the city through canals which are utilised by tho Indians for transporting pas sengers and every variety of market ing, of which thoy raise large quanti ties along tho canals and on the borders of tho lake.

At a ninelii.g of the American So ciety of Civil Engineers Prof. Gustav Lindenthal read an exhaustive napet on '.'The North River Bridgo Prob lem." It outllnod a gigantlo scheme for constructing a suspension bridgo across the Hudson at a point botwoen Fourteenth and Twenty-eighth streets, for tho purpose of bringing all of tin ereat railroad lines Into this city. Tho ulan of the bridjre consisted of two wrought irou towers on sunken stono piers, at equal distance from either shore, with three suspension spans, the middle one being J.850 feet long. Tho largest single span ever designed up to the presont dav Is that bolonfflnir to a bridge now ImliKr constructed In Scotland. Its luticrth Is 1.700 foet. Tho profossoi argued that the great width of the river had made eneineers rathor favoi a tunnel than a bridge, owing to the manr difficulties Involved in the con struotlon of tho latter. Still, a bridge with .ix tracks, wwcj wou a . rM.. lU i ' 8 iih six tracks, which would accom tn nnler tills C tV. 0OU1U DO coil Rtruotod at a much smaller cost than dm number of tunnels that would be required for tho same pur jmse. B'sidos, It would be much safer. A bridgo built according tc itis plan, ho said, would be capable ol tninferrlng 60.000 pansongers an houi in ona direction, and would thus 11100I Ihe demands for at least fifty years. Tho cost t f construction for the bridge alone, including anchorages anil abut ments, would not exceed $15,000,000. This estimate did not include thi outlay which would be Involved In tin purchase of tho necessary amount ol laud at cithor approach, nor for tin irnf'.s snl slaiions of the termini. F. M. WILKINS.
