gored skirt. We have jaunty little jackets
for outdoors, for petite figures; the tight hitting
mantle for the tall, perfect FORM and the DEM,
aj,ste for an elegant but less strictly turned
figure; to say nothing of ample cloaks OF
mingled silk and lace or velvet for less youth
full forms. As for bonnets, they are pretty
because they necessitate much wearing of false
hair. less on account of natural deficiency than
for warmth. The beautiful outline of the bust
is preserved in the plain bodice with the low
darts; the short waist adds to its apparent
fullness, and has abolished tight-lacing. Only
fifteen years ago tight-lacing was an absolute
necessity to stout or square figures. A thick
waist was such crime that a young lady
would rather have been dead than eyed as she
would have been eyed in society by other
ladies, and sneered at at home. And so she
screwed herself in, and suffered, and some
times died. A thick waist in those days was
as great fault as a penchdnt for a younger
son, or penniless but charming barrister or
artist with their career yet before them.

hang him the hour atier, his request was that
his Majesty would rather do so the hour before.
The earliest French fool on record seems to
have been one named Jean, at the court of
Charles the Simple, Of whom DR.. Doran tells
us some anecdotes. "This good fellows in
fuence was so great, that Charles once re-
marked to him he thought they had better
change places As Jean did not look well
pleased at the proposal Charles asked him il
he were not content at the idea of being king.
'Oh, content enough was the reply, but
should be exceedingly ashamed at having such
a ioo.' 1t was this fool that once tried his
masters nerves by rushing into his room one
morning, with the exclamation, 'Oh, sire, such
news four thousand men have risen in the
city, What cried the startled king, with
what intention have they risen p We'll, said
Jean, placing his finger on his nose, probably
with the intention Of lying down again at bed
time"
One Of the best examples of this kind Of un-
loOked-for sagacity occurs in the story in
Rabelais, where a cook, seeking to charge a
porter for eating a crust Of bread to the ac-
compartment of the SAVIOR that came from his
kitchen, the dispute is referred to a poor fool
who is passing, and who, after gravely hear
ing the parties, decided that the cook shall be
paid for the smell of his shop with the chink of
the porter's money.

Heroes of the C9@qusst of the Golden

Heroes OF the Conquest OF the Golden
Fleece.
From the "Life and Death Of Jason, in
press by Roberts Bros, of Boston
Meanwhile came many heroes to the town.
Asterion, dweller on the windy down
Below Phileus, far up in the north;
Slow footed Polyphemus, late borne forth
In chariot from Larissa, that beholds
Green winding Peneus cleaving fertile wolds;
Erginus, son of Neptune, nigh the sea
His father sent him, where the laden bee
Flies low across the M@ander, and falls down
Against the white walls of merchant town
Men call Miletus.
Behind him there came,
The winter of great and dreaded name
Theseus the slayer of the fearful beast,
Who soon in winding halls should make his
On youths and maidens; and with him there
rode
The King. Pirithous, who his loved abode
Amid the shady trees had left that tide
Where fly the Centaurs' arrows far and wide.
Black-haired was Theseus, slim, and still his
cheek
Lacked all but down, for yet he had to seek
The twisted ways of Dedalus the old;
But long and twining locks of ruddy gold
Blew round the face of the huge forest king,
AS carelessly he rode and feared nothing.
Great joy had Jason, gazing on the twain,
Young though they were, and thought that
not in vain
His quest should be, if such as these had will
The hollow of his great black ship to fill.
Next, threading Argiye ways and woody
lanes,
Came Nauplius, son of Neptune, to those
plain
Crossing Anaurus dryshod, for his sire
With threats and blows drove up the land
stream higher,
And sucked the sea-waves back across the
sands;
With him came IdmOn, mighty of his hands,
But mightier than he was skilled to know
The counsels of the god who bears the bow,
His very father; who bore not to see
Unloved Cyrene wandering carelessly
Beside the Peneus: Iolaus came
From Argos, too, to win deathless name;
And if henceforth came any heroes more
/ know not, and their names have died Of
yore.

The Oldest Relic of Humanity.

The oldest remnant of mortality extant is
the skeleton of one of the earlier Pharaohs, in
cased in it's original burial robes, and wonder
fully perfect, considering its age, which was
deposited about eighteen or twenty months
ago in the British Museum, and is Justly con-
sidered the most valuable of its archaeological
treasures. The lid of the coffin which con-
tanned the royal mummy was inscribed with
the name of its occupant, Pharaoh Mykerimus,
who succeeded the heir of the builder of the
great pyramid about two centuries before
Christ. Only think of it, the monarch whose
crumbling bones and leathery integuments are
now exciting the wonder of numerous gazers
in London reigned in Egypt before Abraham
was born, and only about two centuries or so
after Misraim, the grandson of old father Noah
and the first of the Pharaohs, had been
gathered to his fathers.

To the EditorQt the Press:
On the eighteenth of this month entered
on my thirty fourth year of housekeeping, and
sent home barrel of flour costing $1S.25.
never before paid so high a price by nearly
three dollars. 1 have used in thirty y-three
years, 24O barrels, costing S1.915, running from
45-S to 15 5-S dollars. During the last dozen
years, 1 have purchased in October or Novem.
ber nearly years supply; first selecting q
good article of unifol m brand. The purchase
of last October was good st. Louis at 10 5-S
which afterwards advanced from three to four
dollars. My first barrel, nice white Genesee,
costing S575, was opened in June 1884, and ev-
cry subsequent barrel, when opened, has been
numbered in order, on the head and side; the
head carefully laid away to be replaced in the
barrel when emptied-the hoops replaced, and
all protruding nails removed. Not head has
been lost. and but one barrel of flour out of
the whole lot returned or exchanged. Con-
s;derinr the annoyance the dealers experience
in having "poor flour" sent back it may be in-
ferred that have been very fortunate in my
purchases, or that my family have not been re-
markably difficult" in being suited.
III iOrnier years tile price anu quauty OF Su-
pcrfine -four was much more uniform than of
late; fifty cents being about the difference ior
"extra." Genesee or Western New York was
the popular kind, except occasionally prefer
enee was given to 4 stronger flour, such as
Howard street Baltimore or Haxall, Richmond
I have usually purchased good kind without
paying an extra or fancy price. The lowest
prices were in August and October, 1874, al
S462 in the summer of 1916 at s S475. and Of
ten at different dates, at to dollars. The
first high prices were in 1887, at Si275, when
flour was imported from Europe. In that year
believe, the bread riot took place in New
York, and Hart's store was sacked. fio'
was feared in Portland about that time, ana
public meeting called, at which Hon. MARI
Harris presided, to quell the movement.
Flour was high again in 1855 at $1,000 t.
1875. 1t was comparatively low during the
first three years of the war, at about $3.50. Ii
the latter part of 1864 it rose to over S14,-
and has remained high ever since, being mucl
J the higeest the last eight months. In looking
