In Holland a lady is expected to retire precipitately if she should enter a store, or restaurant where men are congregated. J She waits until they have transacted their business and departed. Ladies seldom rise in Spain to receive a male visitor, and they rarely accompany him to the door. A gentleman does not offer to shake a Spanish lady's hand. For him to give a "ady (even his wife) his arm when out walking is looked upon as a decided violation of propriety. If a Spaniard says, when you retire after a visit: "This house is entirely at your disposal whenever you may please to favor it," he wishes you to know that he regards you as one of the family. If the words are not spoken you can conclude that you are not welcome to call again. Philadelphia Press. A FLO WEB WITH A HISTORY. In flavoring our ice-creams and cakes, and the various dishes that will receive it, with vanilla, we seldom remember that we are turning to utility one of the most interesting of tropical growths an orchid that grows as few other orchids do, by actual climbing, clamping itself along its way on aerial roots, and which has to be fertilized by insects or else yield no fruit, except when the fertiliza tion is done by hand in an artificial pro cess. The odor of the vanilla, like its flavor, has an interest of its own to those of a fanciful tone, for it belongs not to the full tones of odor, so to speak, as the rose and the honeysuckle may be said to do, but to the half tones the flats and sharps sharing a part of that chromatic scale in which the orange, the helio trope, the lemon, aro to be found. A curious thing about this same vanilla, in relation to its use as an extract, is that its essential quality, that which gives it perfume and savor, vanilline, can be pro duced artificially from the sap of pines. Vanilla has a long and poetical history in its use in Spanish and Oriental cook ery, in chocolates and dressings, and in various Mexican dishes, from before the time of the Montezumas, and the thought of its brings up the scene of many a rich repast with picturesque adjuncts between palace or monastery walls. It is not without significance in this connec tion that, used in excess, it develops poisonous qualities. It is obvious that the first step beyond the pure necessities in the way of food is taken by adding a flavor to the food, and such simple addi tions as the rose and vanilla must have preceded much costly cookery and ran sacking of seas and forests for novel and stimulating substances. We read in the tales of the "Thousand Nights and One Night1' of incessant marketing, flavoring and feasting ; but it is all made up of the same general line of articles the lamb and the kid, rice, pomegranates and quinces ; much of the rest is in the added flavors, and the charm of the cookery seems to be more in the flavors than in the food itself. Among the varied ex tracts used now among ourselves in cook ery most are absolutely harmless, as the lornon and orange and other fruit flavors ; the genuine almond, peach and nut flav ors are comparatively safe, but not alto gether so; but the vanilla is to be used with care. For, whether justlv or not, the vanilla has been made to bear the odium of various cases of poisoning by means of ices flavored with it. But used with discretion and in small quantity, it is one of the choicest and most delicate additions that we have to our sweetmeats and sauces, having not only a pleasant piquancy, but leaving a certain tonic and cleansing effect upon the palate. Bazar. FASHION XOTE3. Many of the new plaids are in two colors, and also in several shades of a single color. Waistcoats will be almost de rigueur with wash gowns this season and are made removable so as to let the pretty silk or cambric skirt now and then come to the front. Many ultra-fashionables have complete Euits of underwear to match each cos tume, either matching the color of the dress or of the ribbons with which it is trimmed. The handsome trained redingotes. made to wear with skirts of different color and stuff, must be lined either to match the skirt or else with a color in harmony with it. A blouse waist which fits the figure perfectly h?.s a number of fine plaits at the back, which converge at tho wpist, and also on each side of the frout The collar and belt are alo tucked in fiat rows. The shades of old rose continue to multiply, and appear in rich fabrics of every description. They are most effec tive when blended with primrose, dark ruby, Persian mauve, reseda and the deeper rose tints. Graceful little English jackets, the complement of simple walking dresses, re made in most cases with elegant fancy Vests, though occasionally the bodice of the gown imitates a waistcoat underneath the cutaway jacket. . Small fruits of every description appear among the hat and bonnet garnitures. The fruits are mingled with folds of net andplaitings of black lace on large Direc toire round hats, toques and capotes of Bhirred black tulle. For very young ladies are fichus com posed of extra wide sash ribbons. These are joined diagonally at the middle of the back, crossed in front with a few plaits to conform them to the figure, and knot ted at the waist behind. A Powerful Woman Preacher. One of Chicago's successful preachers is the Rev. Florence Kollock, of Blue Island. In her pulpit, clad in Princess gown of dark fine stuff, the severe lines of which reveal the perfection of her tall, lissome figure, with her fine head thrown back and her dark eyes glowing, she is the embodiment of inspirational enthusi asm. She is wonderfully magnetic, and carries forward her audience as if by magic. Still she is not in the least sen sational, either in method or matter. Dealing in facts rather than dialectics, she is broad, intense and original, and those who have listened to her for years declare not only that her work is not a replica of early efforts, but improves- iu power, strength and . finish as the years go on. A native of Wisconson, Miss Kollock was educated at the State Uni versity at Madison. For five years after her graduation she was a most successful teacher. During this time she was much exercised in regard to religious matters. The demands of her broad and humane nature were such thai ordinary creed limi tations were quite impossible to her; in the end she became a Universalist and determined to preach the Gospel as a minister of that church. To this end she took a course of study to fit her self for the work of the ministry, and began preaching nt Waverly, Wis., in 1876. She remained at Waverly two years, and then followed the Rev. Au gusta Chapin as pastor of the Universal ist Church at Blue Island, one of Chica go's suburbs. During her pastorate there she established a mission at Englo wood. Augusta (Me.) Chronicle. Snakes on the Egg Shells. A wonderful freak of nature, resulting from the charming of a hen by a huge rattlesnake, is reported by Ma jor Scheller de Buol, who resides just south of this city, on the line of the Burlington road. The Major states that he had occasion to search for a favorite hen belonging to his coop of rare fowls, and he found her near a pile of brush, trembling like a leaf, and gazing with strained eyes and neck transfixed at a huge rattlesnake, which lay coiled not four feet away, with head and tail up, ready for his fatal spring. Major de Buol had a hoe in his hand at the time, and lost no time in de spatching his snakeship. He then at tempted to "shew" the hen to the barn, but she could not be made to stir, and he accordingly picked her up and carried her in his arms to the coop. The strang est thing about the incident above nar rated is that for three successive days thereafter the hen laid an egg, on the large end of which was an exact repre sentation in miniature of the rattlesnake, the flat head, short, thick body and but ton tail of this species of reptile being strikingly apparent. Otherwise the eggs were perfectly formed and of ordinary size. The ceils or representations of the snake are raised a quarter of an inch from the shell," and ere siugulgrly formed on the inside, showing conclusively that it was the work of nature. The eggs were brought to this city and presented to Dr. E. R. Kittoe by Major de Buol, and are now on exhibition at Siniger's drug store, where they have been seen and examined by hundreds of people. Chicago Tribune. The "Naphtha Habit." A peculiarly agreeable intoxication is produced b the inhalation of naphtha fumes, and attention has been drawn to the increase of the "naphtha habit" among the female employees iu rubber factories. The habit is said to have been introduced into .mcriea from Ger many, and to ie found chiefly iu New EngUnd. Trsnivn (Y. J.)
