WOMEN writer from the Paris Exhlbl-
ton has a few words on the women who are
seen at the great fair. He ays:-Engl land
sends Us several misses, whose speciality con-
slsts in letting themselves be cOurtcd by all the
world, then finishing by marrying some rich
and idiotic nobleman. Russia sends princess
es, created and sent into the world for the ex-
press purpose of marrying artists. Spain sends
guitar women, reported morOsc, and unworthy
of their reputation. Here the eye rests upon
an Italian, with black eyes and purple black
hair, and coitfed with this graceful ntezEdO,
which is one of the most ravlshlng head dresses
ever invented by "a coquette. There Is Swede
with golden hair and complexion white as ivory
with indolent step and dreamy eyes. little
further. the blonde German, melancholy, to b,
consistent to national character. But among
ali. it i, the Partisan who is the most feminine
| of all women. She is always invested with 1
charm peculiarly her own. She has eyes mad
to see everything a mouth made to say every
thing; and in the meantime, the man the mos
rude would dare address her otherwise tha
respectfully. The Partisan is the woman tn
most dangerous and the most devoted, til
most ardent and the most tickle, the mos
lsDiritueiic and the least instructed, in the er
Ftlre world.

The Milford BARD.

Some inquiry having been instituted by the
" Saturday Ntght' newspaper, i'll regard to
the " Milford Bard DIR. John Lofland-we
make the following synopsis of his history:
lie was born at Milford, Kent County, Del,
in the year 1900. At ten years of age he con-
trlbuted several pieces Of poetry to the Dela-
lcdre Gazette, dtUrddy Erenutg Post, and the
Philadelph CdSket, which were collected and
published by Samuel Ilarker in 1916, in a neat
little volume, styled the Harp of Delaware. "
In a short time afterwards he commenced the
study of medicine, and graduated at Jefferson
College in Philadelphia. He then visited Eu-
rope where he became acquainted with the
great Irish poet, Thomas Moore, and, on the
latter coming to this country, they visited the
Schuylkill and other romantic spots together
In 1889 he removed to Baltimore, Maryland,
and edited the Log Cabin, advocating the cleo
ton of General Harrison with great vlgOr and
ability. At the same time he contributed to
the Baltimore Clipper, and wrote the Ruins
OF lime" and other literary productions, be
side OratlOnS, temperance lectures, medical
theses, &c. He published, through Murphy
& Co., volume styled "The POetica and
Prose Works of the Milford Bard" In 1915
he removed from Baltimore to Wilmington,
where he disposed of large number of these
books He then assumed the literary editor
ship of the " Blue Hens Chicken, published
! by Jeandell Il Vincent, and his writings III
prose and poetry attracted large number of
readers to that paper His stories entitled the
Broken Heart, Valley Forge" and Mani
too or the Indian Beauty of the Brandywine, y
were particularly sought after. La lS47 he
prepared beautiful piece of sculpture Of the
Infant Jesus, which is now in possession of DIR.
H. f. Askew, of this city, and which was uni
We sally admired. He was unfortunately vic
tim to alcoholic stimulants, and this habit nc
doubt contributed to shorten his days and les
sen his usefulness. lie condemned intempe-
rance in the strongest terms, and gave young
men many impressive lessons on sobriety anC
morality. lie died in this city in 1913, ant
was inferred in the burial grounds Of St. An
drew Episcopal church, beside the Remains
of his sister, Mrs Cory Chambers, who wa
also poetess Of considerable merit. shor
time afterwards his fugitive pieces were collec
ted by Murphy l. Co., Of Baltimore, and pub
lshcd with memoir of his life written b.
Rev. Mr.. Mc.Jiron, making a volume Of Owe

LOVE ON THE BRAIN This disease is con
fined to no particular age or statijn. We had
an attack of it when about fifteen. We bad
it so severely that our mother wanted to give
us paregoric. We recovered IN course OF time.
Once it broke out fully in the shape OF certain
question to a certain lady. She answered III
monosyablc Of two letters. 1t brought Us to
our senses 1t swept the mist from our eyes
like fog before hurricane. We looked Tor
the cloud and saw large white bird sailing on
a pond Thought we were much the same
kind of bird, with our wings clipped. Atew
days after we told our chum we didn see
anything in that Haunting Dorothy Dlddle to
admire. And we didn't.
The disease develops itself most singularly
in those who are advanced in years Any one
who has seen an old man in love has seen ma
ture harlequin. The old dame gets up moth

Every one feels like laughing at the poor old
fellows infrmity.
We once saw an old man who was suffering
from an attack oft. Hewas well enough advanc-
ed in life to have dozen grandchildren. We
know him we'll He was the playmate of our
| iustrious grandsire, who WASH quartermas-
ter in the Revolutionary war. II he had been
we would have been better off than we are
now. We had noticed for some time Singu-
larity in his conduct. We saw him several
times with roses stuck in his button hole
We caught him once reading Burns 3" High
land Mary" We were with him once looking
at his stock, and we asked which was his IA
vorite heifer lie said, Widow Wilkins. ="
The cat was out We knew what was the mat
ter; but when, several months after, We saw
him washing the dishes while the wido" that
was-nursed the baby, we thought he was cured
permanently There is no preventive for this
disease Like the hopping cough and the
mumps, it comes to all mankind. But 1t sell

of it. but as we have never seen II case of the
kind, We are not willing to record it as fact
All the cases that ever came under our obser-
