High Neck Dresses.

We are thankful for at least one Of
Dame Fashions freaks she has turned
her back upon low neck dresses, and
rather insists that collar bones and
shoulder blades shall be covered. 1t is
certainly great improvement-not on

of being out done by their, nieces, pre-
sented such vast expanse Of yellow neck
and shoulder to the view at evening par
ties as were calculated to alarm nervous
people seriously; but because since Gus
tom obliges us to wear garments, there
can certainly be no reason why we
should leave the most delicate portion
of our frame without protection. Plump
shoulders and arms are pretty. But so
Qet us Whisper are plump legs. The
mother who should fail TO provide her
daughter with stockings would be con-
sidered cruel wretch, yet year ago
she might neglect to cover her chest
and arms with impunity. We trust this
state of things is over We hope that
the wisdom which causes every prudent
parent to protect the pretty shoulders of
her little girls with comfortable. wooden

Sermon to Children.
By REV. HUGH BOURNE.

Trx1. NAT. XIII: 49, sThen shall the right
sous shine forth the in the kingdom OF their
Eather."A -
"Now childer, this text tells US what
we shall be like i heaven And isn't it
grand? The text says we shall be like
t sun: now t sun shines miles wide at
once, reckon; and if we are to shine
like that that will be shine. When
Moses came down from t mount, where
he had been talking with God the chill
dren of Israel could not bear to look on
his face, it shone so; and when the
apostle Stephen was before bis enemies,
his face was as though it had. been the
face of an angel so that you may see,
from these cases of face-shining, some
thing of what the text means. Now,
my childer, you must all aim to get to
that grand and happy place; and if you
pray to God to bless you, and take you
there, for Christ jesus sake, he. will
bring you all up into heaven-every
one. 1t is no matter where you pray,
if you only pray i good matter you
can pray side of t bed, side of It chair,
side Of daddy, or side of nanny; it's
no matter where-the Lord can hear all
your prayers up i heaven-every one.
Now, my dear childer, when you get to
heaven, you'll all be clothed with fine
robes (you know what robes are, my
childer-they are long garments, trail
ing on the ground, which kings and
queens weary And you'll have a crown
on your head, finer and grander than
Queen Victoria's; and when your dad
dies and mammies see you they scarce
ly know you. They'll say-"Hay! is yon
our Mary or our Tommy? why they look
as nice as nice, and as grand as grand!'
And there's tree O. life in heaven, and
nicer tasted fruit than it grows never
was-it's nicer and sweeter than sugar !;
and there's t river Of water Of life, too,
clear as crystal; nicer and better tasted
water never was. And you'll have no
sore eyes, nor aches and pains, nor sick
ness of any sort there-so that you must
all strive to get there. When you get
to heaven, my childer, you will, after a
while, see this old world burning up,
burning up; and you'll say-"There
goes t old world on which we sinned SO
much, and suffered SO much, and in
which old Satin tempted us so much ;,
but after all, you'll say, sit saryed our
purpose very well; for we heard of Je-
sus on it, got converted on it, said our
pray on it, and lived to God on it, and
got to heaven from offit; so we have no
fault to find with it." Now, my dear
childer, you mustn't miss of heaven /;
for if you do, youth go to t. foul place,
and that will never do, never do; nice
childer like you must not go there, for
old Satin 5 there, and foul creatures are
there, and bad people, and they shrike
and shrike as never was; and it's as
black as black, and as~ugly as ugly.
You mustn't go there, my childer and
you hay any need, for the Lord is
waiting to bring you ali up into heaven
EVERY one. Say your prayers, my
childer, look to the Lord, who died for
you and rose again, and when you die

Different nations and tribes differ as
much in their tastes, customs, and fash
ions as do individuals. pr Hall,
81. complies the following interesting facts
for his Journal of Health on female
beauty =, III rq 81 H5Ag a07 va.
The ladies of Arabia stain their fn-
gers and toes red, their eyebrows blue,
and their lips black. In Persia they
paint black streak around the eyes and
ornament the face with various figures.
The Japanese women gid their teeth,
and those of the Indies paint them red.
~ The pearl Of teeth must be dyed black,
' to be beautiful in Guzerat. The Hot
tentot women paint the entire body in
compartments of red and black In
Greenland the women color their faces
with blue and yellow. and they frequent
" tattoo their bodies by saturating
threads in SCOT, inserting them beneath
tas tbeskin and then drawing them through
a Hindoo females, when they wish to APP
pear particularly lovely, smear them
selves with mixture Of saffron, tune
rio, and grease. In nearly all the islands
e of the Pacific and Indian ocean, the wo-
men, as well as the men, tattoo great
variety of figures on the face, the lips,
the tongue and the whole body. In
New Holland they cut themselves with
shells, and by keeping the wounds long
e5 time form deep scars in the flesh, which
they deem highly ornamental; and anoth-
er singular addition is then finally
made to their beauty by taking off, in
infancy, the little finger Of the left hand
, s7a at the second Joint. In ancient Persia
an aquiline nose was often thought wor-
thy of the crown but the Samaritan
IL mother carefully 6attens the nose of her
daughter. Among some of the savage
H7ll tribes of Oregon and also in Sumatra
and Aracan, continual pressure is appli-
= ed to the skull in order to fatten it, and
thus give it new beauty. The modern
Persians have strong aversion to red
hair the Turks, on the contrary. are
warm admirers Of it, In China, small
round eyes are liked and the girls are
v7 continually plucking their eyebrows,
Il that they may be thin and long But
the great beauty Of Chinese lady is in
- her feet, which in childhood are so COM
pressed by bandages as effectually to
prevent any further increase in size
The four smaller toes are turned under
the foot, to the sole of which they firmly
adhere; and the poor girl not only en-.
dures much pain, but becomes cripple
for life. Another mark of beauty con-
sists in finger nails SO long that cover
ings of bamboo are necessary to preserve
them from injury. An African beauty
must have small eyes, thick lips, large
fat nose, and skin of beautiful black.
In New Guinea the nose is perforated
and piece Of wood or bone inserted.
