Tbe Hamper hat for young ladies bas lattice crown of brown interlaced twi^s- Above tbe brim is draped a scarf in em¬ broidered muslin, over which is a bunch of sweet peas and fruit.
Pretty bonnets of black lace have the fronts made of open jet trellis and are to be worn flat on the hair.

A noveliy in bonnet trimming is tbe curled feather, shot with motber-of-perirl tints in all shades.
Moss green, deep blue, beige, a new slinde of red and a heliotrope violet are tbe colors of the season.
Jackets of colored cloths are trimmed with velvet ornaments, cut in quaint designs and outlined with gold or oilk cord.

A hat of black straw for fall wear is ori'iamenttd with a golden pheasant and a tuft of green and ripe oats.
Very pretty on evening dresses is the new trimming of cord, arranged so as lo form outlines of loaves and flowers with centres of pearls and crystal beads.

Enirines of the Elev.^ited Railroads.
Although there are 220 boilers used by the elevated railroad companies of Xew York, which, through a peculiarity of law, are never ofllcially inspected, there has never been a boiler exph)sion during tf.o years the elevated railroad sys¬ tem bas been in operation. During the same period tbere have been many disastrous explosions in and abont the city of boilor.s which bad been inspected and pronounced safe.
The reason v/by tbere have been no boiler explosions and few accidents to the machinery is tiiat a rigorous system of inspection and r(^pairs is kept up. The work is chiefly doiie*in  tbe big repair
constructed with great nicety. Each boiler, before it leaves the shop, is sub¬ jected to hydrostatic pressure of 220 pound to the square inch. All the boilers are made with extra plugs or manholes, so that they can be insiiected much more easily and thoroughly than the boilers ordinarily in use on surface railroads. The iron used is the very best in the market, and often repairs are made when dictated only by extra precaution.
A very considerable expense of the big shop is the cost of water, of which im¬ mense quantities are used to fill the boil¬ ers, wash the cars, etc. The company has been engaged for months in sinking a big artG.sian well on the premises, which, it is hoped, will supply all the water needed.
<. nt of 220 engines belonging to tbe company there are generally about lo in the shops in various stages of repair. Oue engine was built entirely in the shop, chiefly as an experiment.* She is consid¬ ered the best on the line, although made between times when repairs were not pi'essing.
Besides tho constant inspection and repairs, the steam gnages are regularly tested and corrected once a month. The sliglitest variation is at once delected. It is only by such rigid and untiring watch¬ ing of each screw aud bolt nnd rivet that accidents are prevented. The tendency on all railroads is Co ''put a life" upon an engine—that is, to lay it up when its re cord shows tbi.t it has performed a fair average mileage, A record is kept of the mileage of each engine.
At thc water station there are huge tanks, which are kept constantly filled by steam pumps. All this machinery is kept in order by the hands of the repair shop. All the tinwai'e used an the road is made
in the repair shop. The repairing of the cars requirs a large force, and the supplies include a gre;it variety of things.    The
city blocks 'lach

I did. I thought he was all forehead, as his hair did not commence to grow until the back of bis neck was reched ; but she assured me that I was mistaken.
"Wouldn't I just heft bim once?''
I hefted him.
I told her that I never saw a child of his weight weigh so mnch, and she smiled like an angel. She said she was afraid I didn't appreciate children, but now she knew I did.
"Wouldn't I jnst look at his darling little feet—bis little red feet and cunning toes?"
Yes.I woi>ld.
She rolled him over on his face and un¬ wound his feet and trumphantly held them up to my gaze. 1 contemplated the hundredsj of little v/rinkles running lengthwise and crosswise, tbe big toes and the little toes, and I agreed with her that, so far as I could judge from the feet; and the toes and the wrinldes, a future of unexampled brilliancy lay before that pugnosed imp.
He began to kick and itowl, and she stood him on end, set liim up, laid bim down and trotted him until she bounced tbe wind colic into the middle of Septem¬ ber.
"Whom did be look like?"'
I bent over tlie scarlet-faced rascal, pushed his nose to one side, chucked him under the chin, and didn't answer with¬ out due deliberation, I told her that tbere was a faint resemblance to George Washington aronnd the month, but the eyes reminded me of Daniel Webster, while the general features made me tliink of the poet Milton ever since she entered the house.
That was ju;?t iier view exactly, only alie hadn't .'.aid auylliing about it before.
"Did I think lie was too smart to live?"
I felt of his ears, rubbed his head, put my finger down tiie back of his neck, and told her that; in my humble opinion, he wasn't, though he had bad a narrow es¬ cape.    If bis nose  had been 'set a little

Another of onr correspondents, when speakinff of thorou;^ii piepiyjation by going several times over the ground, remarked; "Tiie farmer will hnd tluit tboi'ouffb cultivation is manure and liiat each of his teams will earn ten dollars a day while thus employed." C. C. Andrews, ill bis Special Report on tbo Xeeds of Wheat Culture, stiys tliat in many of the countries in Europe, one will see fields which have been prepared for wheat as clean and finely pulverized as garden beds and that this is undoubtedly one cause why a larger yield is obtained in Europe than in tbe United States.
Some interejting practical information could be easily obtained by any doubting farmer, by leaving a portion of his wheat field with thc common superficial cloddy preparation, and preparing the remainder in the most thorough manner, cutting tbe two portions and threshing and meas¬ uring them separately. The improved harrows made of late years bavo greatly facilitated such treatment.—Country Qentleman.  ,
