Sunburn may, by general consent, be fashionable, and in particular instances it is known to be becoming, but tnat is only so far as the skin goes. There is such a thing as sunburning one's eyes and upon this neither fashion nor comfort has set its seal. The balls burn as if W- had been branded, or, at least, feverea, "ni there is real danger of bad effects as well as present pain. It is this susceptibility of the eye ball to the sun's rays that has le-sulted in a new fashion the wearing of colored glasses. All the smart girls are doing it this year, though it is, of course, most in vogue at the sea shore.

The glasses are not the ordinary smoked affairs that prudence has long dictated should be worn in a great glare, nor are they the green goggles of the student and the weakeyed. They are designed with ail the piquancy and becomingness that can be put into a pair ot thcr chiet charm being that thev are of different colors. Thus, a brown eyed girl wears classes of a sort, warm umber; she of the blac.v eyes chooses brieht green, while for blue eyes there is nothing more becoming than blue glasses. Visitors to the Columbian Exposition will recall the intense pain to the eye produced by those many buildings of dazzling white. At that time, however, there was nothing for it but the veil or the common smoked glass, which was then neither elegant nor becoming.

It has remained for the pres ent season to evolve a scheme by which colored glass could no longer be regarded as unbecoming, after which it was easy to secure the stamp of smart approval.

FAILURE OF RUSSIAN CROPS. Prospects for a Famlna are Said to be Most Grave. London, Aug. 24. The St.

Petersburg correspondent of the Times says great uneasiness is felt over the repetition of last year's failure of the harvest. In seven districts of the province of Kazan and largely in the provinces of Samara, Saratoff, Simbirsk, Viatka and Perm, the crops are almost worthless. Even the landed gentry are beginning to ask the government for relief and the prospects of a famine are most grave. The ministers of the Interior and of Finance are sending out agents to make inquiries and to purchase corn. The Zem-stovs are bestiring themselves to meet the situation.

See That You Are Registered. September 6 and 7 are the last days for registering voters in order to qualify them to vote at the next general election. On those two da; the assessors will sit at the polling places, when every good citizen ought to see that his name is put on the registry list. It is the duty of every man to vote and to do this with little trouble to himself his name ought to be on the registry list. If he is not registered he cannot pa'v taxes, and if he has not paid his tax he cannot vote.

Don't forget it Register on September 6 or 7, or at any time between thia and that time most convenient. An Engineer Weds (Dallas George Bond, an active young engineer on the St N. H. and Miss Alice Hieler, daughter ot Mr. W.

Bieler, were married last Friday. It is said 4hey were married at Binghamton, where Uad gone on an excursion. May their voyajre on matrimony's sea he a pleasant one and devoid of the storms that frequently over- vUn v.utuie upon it. The Combination Waeron of the Heigths Fire Department. The members of the Heights Fire Department were made happy Tuesday by the arrival of the new combination hose wagon and chemical engine.

It is a very handsome wagon and surpasses in beauty the wagons of Companys No. 7 and lb. The body is of Brewster green with gilt trimmings, while the running gear is of a pretty design of road cart red, with gold trimmings. There are two plates on the wagon with the names of the lire committee and chief of the fire department and F. D.

No. 4 in handsome lettering. Instead of being in the center of the wagon the feed to the hose line is located on the side, an improvement on the other wagons. The companies are very proud of their new wagon and will render more efficient services as a result of this addition. Hon.

C. B. Miller's Black Eecord. (Philadelphia Press, Republican.) The official record of the Quay candidate for the Legislature in the Third Luzerne District, Mr. C.

li. Miller, in the last Legislature, is interesting. This record is compiled from the only official authority 1 lie Kecord. Clarence b. Miller at the last session of the Legislature voted for the infamous Becker bills to destroy the vital principle of Philadelphia's citv charter and deliver the city over to twenty-one Quay Council-men, Legislative Record, page 2899.

On the mercantile tax bill, that would have crippled or driven out of the State many important business industries, he voted in the affirmative. Legislative Record, page 3124. Veoted by the Governor. On the bill to license pool selling and gambling, by driving clubs. and agricultural societies, throughout the State, he voted in the affirmative.

Legislative Record, page 370S. fie opposed every effort to prevent the glaring steals contained in the genera) appropriation bill. He voted for all bills to increase salaries and to create new offices for Quay men; such as the bill to increase the salary of Deputy Sheriffs, appointed bv Quay's Sheriff of Philadelphia, from $1000 to $2500 a year, etc. Legislative Record, page 1828. On the infamous Simon electric light bill, to compel municipalities to purchase existing electric light plants, before being allowed to erect their own he voted in the affirmative.

Legislative Record, page 2oii3. Vetoed by the Governor. (This was known as the boodle bill of the session.) On brewery license bill, to gran" a license to any person, without icgard to personal character or fitness, for the manufacture of beer, upon the payir.ent of $1000 to the State Treasurer, and allowing breweries to be located next to churches and school houses, he voted in affirmative. Legislative Record, page He voted against the two cent mileage bill, to prohibit passenger railway companies charging more than two cents a mile. Legislative Record, page 2372.

New York and other States have such a law, and it was a measure in the interest of the masses, and only asked that the farmer and laboring classes be given the same privileges now enjoyed by people of sufficient means to purchase mileage books. On the bill appropriating for the junketing trips to the dedication of the Grant monument, and to the inaugu ration at Washington, he voted in the affirmative. Legislative Record. Pages 3333 and 3139. He voted in the affirmative on the following bills granting appropriations to the so called investigating committees, whose illegal and outrageous charges were in most cases vetoed by the Governor.

Mate Treasurer salaries of $1200 each, as members of the Boards of Public Buildings and Grounds and Public Accounts after the chairman of the Appropriation Committee had acknowledged that the items had been inserted without any authority of law he voted in the negative. Legislative Record, page 2879. On Crothers' amendment to strike out $13,250, the amount of the padded payroll, in the item of payment of employes of the Senate, he voted in the negative. Legislative Record, page 2882.

Notwithstanding the number and salary of employes are specifically provided for by an act of Assembly, the general appropriation bill in two items alone was padded more than $35,000, and, though so acknowledged by the Quay leaders of the House, all attempts by the anti-Quay element to prevent their passage failed. The $29,000 secured on the notorious indemnity bond was advanced on this list. Vetoed by the Governor. Again, on the final passage of the bill, with full knowledge that it carried $38,000 of padded lists (for Quay appointees), be voted in the affirmative. Legislative Record, page 3330.

On final passage of the appropriation bill, which contained more than $150,000 of padded lists, and illegal items, he voted in the affirmative. Legislative Record, page 3727. With this record against him, Mr. Miller asks for re-election. And the people are asking if it is for the purpose of getting another chance to vote away the people money as he did at the last session.

The New Regiment The Seventh Regiment, of which Aslier Miner of (his city has been elected colonel, will occupy the Ninth Regiment Armory. This building is in the permanent charge of a board of trustees and they interpret the spirit of their charge to be that the armory is to be the permanent headquarters of whatever regiment of the State Guard has this city as headquarters. The new State Guard will be somewhat smaller than the old. The single regiments will be one-third larger, but two instead of three regiments will constitute a brigade. All the regiments will consist of twelve companies.

Just what effect if any the mustering out of the Ninth will have on the new Seventh Regiment is not yet known. Very likely there will be a chance for some of the men who wish to enlist in the Seventh and there will also be a chance for some of the officers. Col. Miner has not yet decided upon his stall and he will take time to select only the best men available. Deserved (Shickshinny Echo.) The election of Colonel Asher Miner, general inspector of rifle practice on Gov; ernor Hastings' staff, to the colonelcy of the new Seventh Regiment, is a deserved recognition.

When the. State troops were calld out Governor Hastings summoned Colonel Miner to Harrisburg to assist in mobilizing the State Guard preparatory to turning them over to Uncle Sam. At grea: sacrifice to his personal and business interests Colonel Miner dropped everything and left at once for the State Capitol nn-l was the trusted counsellor at State heart -quarters until the entire Guard was ready for the field. Colonel Miner is a good disciplinarian and will "on hrin" H.p r---regiment up to the highest periection. He IS 111 tlie Hi ililU a magnetism that will serve him well in Ins new position.

mvl gtat, McWC .5 DeabMes. PiNKHAii: Wb-en I wrote to you I had not been well for five years; had doctored all the time but got no better. 1 had womb trouble very bad. My womb pressed backward, causing piles. I was in such misery I could scarcely walk across the floor.

Menstruation was irregular and too pro fuse, was also troubled with lcucorrbcea. I had given up all hopes of getting well; everybody thought I had consumption. After taking five bottles of Lydia E. Pink-ham's Vegetable Compound, I felt very much better and was able to do nearly all my own work. I continued the use of your medicine, and feel that I owe my recovery to you.

I cannot thank youenoug-h for your advice and your wonderful medicine. Any one doubting my statement niay write to me and I will gladly answer all inquiries. Mrs. Nell Hujjst, Deep-water, Mo. Letters like the foregoing, constantly being received, contribute not a little to the satisfaction felt by Mrs.

Pinkham that her medicine and counsel are assisting women to bear their heavy burdens. Mrs. Pinkham's address Lyn Mass. All suffering women are invited to write to her for advice, which will be. given without charge.

It is an experienced woman's advice to women. CHURCH SERVICES, ROMAN CATHOLIC. St. Nicholas German Catholic, Rev. P.

Already, in country towns, Western cities and other provincial places where the symptoms of any suggested fashion are felt long before New York has made up her fastidious mind whether or not to accept it, the girls have begun to pull their hair over their foreheads and to attach a small cushion to the rear of their dress skirt bands. It remains to be seen, of course, whether the cachet of metropolitan approval will follow, but atpresent point 'that way.

"Both bang'and bustle are unwelcome and unhealthy; each is, in a measure, grotesoue. if not barbarous; never were there fashions, indeed, with less to recommend them in the way of beauty and utility, and, as everybody knows, no fashion can have a stronger recommendation than this. The unbeauti-fying hang and the barbarous bustle were banished, but for a little while; they were bound to return to us sometime, anil unless things should take a very contrary turn that "sometime" will be this fall.

They should come just below the nose, and are worn tighter across the face than heretofore. This abbreviated veil is becoming to only a few women, which makes its popularity doubtful.

White veils are both stylish and becoming to women of regular features, but must be chosen with care, so as not to get a mesh that bIiows the skin in blotches, which appears red in contrast to the threads of the ve-1. White veils of circular shape with patterned border are popular, and we are threatened with red ones in the same shape, having spots of black chenille sprinkled here and there. Black veils are by all odds the moRt stylish and becoming, and the simpler the mesh the safer the reBult. September Woman's Home Companion.
