TIE ", 7AKER SEx.-The weaker sex
Emile Viii IRIS bids the world ponder on its

He speaks the memorable logic of facts.
When an average lady begins her toilet In
the morning. she weighs something be-
tween IS and so pounds A frail feeble crea-
,ture is this tender flower sample of
the weaker and prosecuted sex. Weak
Let the reader reflect. She will carry, be-
fore she is completely equipped, for the
Bots de Boulogne, ninety-fve yards of textile
fabrics of various qualities and weights,
from lawn to velvet. Then follow the shawl,
the bonnet, studded with steel ornaments.
An d now for jewelry and decorations of all
kinds, combs, diadems. bandalettes, chains,
buckles, necklace, earrings, false hair, fri
settles, powder, paint, high heeled boots
MIR. Emile Vi'lars, in brief, has calculated
the weight the weaker sex easily carries
on summer afternoons, to the Bots, in the
shape of toilette. This weight is, he tells
US, little more than Is pounds-exactly the
weight of carbineers, breasplate this
breastplate the earbineer bears only on
horseback; whereas the weaker sex dances
under her load. Simple folks visiting the
tower have wondered how the brave men OF
old bore and fought in the massive armor On

This is n German word and means sea-
foam, that is, the color of the sea-foam.
The idea that the pipes of that name are
m ade out of S a foam, or anything like it,
is erroneous. Meerschaum is mineral
proper, found in the serpentine or magne-
sian rock. 1t occurs chiefly at the head OF
the Mediterranean, where it is dug out of
its native bed, and sent to Europe in blocks
or rude pipes. 1t is of white or whitish
color. The brown or reddish cast is obtain
ed by saturating them with oil or wax.
Meerschaum is composed of flint, slick,
magnesia and earbon-the carbon and flint
in an oxidized state 1t is soft and porous.
Its porosity gives it its properties as q pipe,
absorbing by it the poisonous qualities of
tho smoke. It is, however, inferior to
clay pipe in this respect; but better than
the briar pipe which is next to it, There
is ore fault with the meerschaum pipe
the bowl is too short. Tobacco itself is an
absorber of the poisonous qualities OF the
smoke-and when the smoke passes through
tobaeco-as it will in q long bowl, the col
umn of tobacco in it being long-it will
become purified precisely the way it does in
o cigar. The first half of the cigar affords
harmless smoking, the latter half less and
less so, till the poisoned stump remains. Sc

bowl puts il in the form Of cigar. The first
smoking is the best las every smoker knows
is The case with pipes noGing), especially
if the distance through the tobacco is great.
One should always stop smoking when The
tobacco is half out. The remainder is
permeated by the poiscn-and in that is the
hurt we get from smoking.

As there are about one thousand persons in
this county. who ought to read the Gasstte,
but who never see it, we recommend to our
friends in the country TO make an effort, at the
coming delegate elections, TO secure its circula-
ton among such persons. We would suggest
that the Vigilance Committees in each district
take the matter in hand and make thorough
canvass of the voters. In order to assist the
Committees in this work, we purpose TO send
the Gazette, for the campaign, that is from the
tfrst Of jug i'll the 18th Of October, to any ad-
dress, for .jffty CENTS payable in advance. We
make this proposition, not for our own advan-
tage, but for the benefit of the party. We have
as many subscribers pecuniariy speaking as
we want Bat party organ cannot be too
widely circulated, and, therefore, we hope our
friends in the country viii exert themselves to
the end that the Gasette may be read by every
reasonable man in the county. Send in your
