A Woman Of Fashion.
A PARODY, by SOLOMON THE YOUNGER.

Proverbs. Chap, XX&I-Hrses 1871.
10. Who shall describe woman of fash
ion7 Her value is only in her jewels.
IL. Her husband would fain place trus: in
her; but she makelh his properly her spoil
i2. She will do him more evil than good
all the days of her life.
10. She seeketh powder and paint, and
rilh her hands willingly make'h cosmetics.
IA. She brngelh food and raiment from a.
far, that it may be more costly; nothing
homely, or cheaply purchased. pleaseth her.
Is. She rise,h at noon, and scolielh her
maiders; The rest of The day she ideth un.
profitably.
TO- She considere,h piece Of china ard
buyeth it, and squanderelh her husbands
money in vanity
IT, She girdeth not her body with modest
raiment; her apparel is loose and ind icate.
IS. She makelh her house the resort of
gamblers her candles burn and give light
TO evil doings.,
10. She layeth her hands on the cards -
yea, eagerly shufiieih the pack.
20. She stretchelh ont her hands in the
idle dance her knee bendelh not in the
house of prayer.
81. She leare,h not slander; for her house.
hold are clad in gorgeous liveries oi cloth
and gold
90 She maketh herself coverings of net
her draperies are transparent gauze.
23 Her husband is known at the Tombs,
where he is seen conversing with the law
yers.
"a She maketh card parties, and deliver
eth tickets Of invita-. ion for balls and revel-
ry.
% Flowers and feathers are her orna.
men,s for she delighteth in vanity.
26. She openelh her mouth to utter evil
words; her tongue retai!elh scandal.
81. She lookeh not to the ways of her
household; they riot in waste and ideness.
%. Her children are nurtured by a slran-
ger, and respect her not. Her husband, too,
despiseih her.
%. Many women do foolshly; but she
is more hlameable than all.
80. Fortune and beauty nigh, have raised
her above all Others but she is the child of
Folly.
81. Her conduct, therefore, should have
been pattern for all women. and her works
would have praised her in the gates.

THE LAST GOOD sroRx

In Paris is told at the expense of a very
handsome and rich widow of most cxem.
plary character, who has a small and ele
giant retreat al Versailles, in addition 10 her
town residence. AT this pretty ruraity she
was passing week, al the close of the An
tumn, having, for her guest, LAD in his
teens, who was a distant relative, and who
was thus passing his vacation from school
Malam's house keeper and cook was a re.
spectacle female, who, however, had an al.
mirer, lrumpeer, stationed in the bar
racks near by, and the stolen pleasure Of
whom was 10 come in and dine steallhiy on
the remainder dishes of the misress's lux.
urious table.
Madame and her boy relative having
started after dinner for walk, the trumpet
er took advantage Of the absence, bnt un.
luckily prolonged his meal a few minutes
too long. In his hurry TO conceal himself,
when taken by surprise he became escon.
ced under the bed of the lady Of the house.
thinking 10 escape while she pissed the
evening in her drawing room az usual.
Madame was tired with her walk, however,
aud proceeded 10 retire for II night, imme.
diately on her return.
The ,rumpster, in full uniform, and with
his brazen instrument beside him, was of
course in position of consl ierable dismay
As he lay racking his BRAN, the door sud-
denly opened, and in walked the schoolboy,
who, TO the establishment of the lady, FELL on
his knees, and made tumultuous declara.
