How to be Handsome.

Now, not evory ono can have
good features. They arc az God
mado them; but almost any ono
can look well, especially with good
health. 1t is hard to give rules in
q very short space, but in brief
these will do:
Keep clean wash freely and
universally, with cold wator. All
the skin wants is lcavo to net
freely, and it will take caro- Of it,
self. It's thousand Of air holes
must not be plugged up.
Eat regularly and simp y. The
stomach can no moro work all the
time. night and day, than horse ;
it must bavo regular work and
rcgulas rest. -..
Good teeth arc help to good
looks. Brush them with ~ soft
brust, especially at night. Go to
bed with teeth clean. or course,
TO have white teeth, it is nccdtul to
let tobacco alonc. Every woman
knows that. And any powder or
wash for tho teeth should be worry
simple. Acids may whiten the
teeth, but they take off tho enamel
or injurc it.
Sleep IN Il cool room, in pure air
No one can have a clear skin who
breathcs bad air. But moro than
all, in order To look well, wake up
the mind and soul.
Wtcn the mind is awake, the
dull sleepy look passes away from
tho eyes. ] do not know that the
brain expands, but it seems to.
Yhink, read; not trashy novels,
but books TINT have something IN
them. Talk with pooplo who
know something; hear lectures
and learn by them. This is one
good Of preaching. A man thinks
and works and tolls rs the results.
And if we listen, and hear, and
understand, tho mind and soul arc
walked up.
Men say they can't afford books,
and sometimes they don't oven pay
lof tnelf newspaper. In that case
it docs them littlo good; they
must feel so mean while thoy arc
roadingit.
But men can afford what they
really choose. If all tho money
spent in sclf.indulGcncc, in hurt
ful indulgence, was spent in books,
in sclf.improvcmcnt, We should
SEQ change. Men would grow
handsome and women too. The
soul would shine out through the
Dyes. We were not meant TO be
nero animals.
Let us havo books and read
them, and lectures and hear them,
and sermons and heed them.

Somo idea may be formed Of
tho healthinoss Of this remarkable

years Of age. Sho said to the

my life, and mover paid cent to

Mrs. Bolts lost two gallant sons
in the Mexican war. She had in
tho Confederate struggle four
sons, five sons-in-law, three grand.
sons, and two nephews. She said {:
"Some of my sons got wounded,
but all Of them came home except
poor Tom, and ho was starved to
death in Emlra." Some ono re-
marked to Mrs. Bolts that she had

ono would suppose that they

Vigorous Women.

Physically our American wo.
mon Of to day present n striking
contrast with those Of ten years
ago. Wasp-lillo waists have dis
appeared. Delicate limbs, Ianguit
countenanccs, and fniI conslitu
tons generally have ceased to be
at II premium. and in thoir place
VIC have strong limbs, ruddy
checks, and robust constitutions.
Tho English women arc yearly
becoming moro the model. With
out becoming strong-mindod, in
Tho common acccptation OF the
term, our wives, daughters, and
sisters arc becoming stronger
physically, We do not alIude, OF
course, TO those whose lives arc
devoted to II round OF lnshionabic
gayety and dissipation. This
encouraging change is to n con-
Siderable extent due to our out
door pastimcs inauguratcd among
Tho women. Horseback riding,
ten pins, croquet, billiards, ska
ting, and walking have ceased to
bc confined to the stcurtr sex. Wo-
men eagerly en- brace these amuse-
mcnts, and seemingly derive all
the cnj joymcnt they aro capable
Of yielding.
The English girl, who thinks
nothing OF doing five mile walk
botorc breakfast, now finds q com
pctitor in her American cousin.
Many Of the most devoted and
skilllnl disciples Of tho curling art
belong to tho other Sex. Women
wiold their croquct.mallcts, pocket
billiard balls, and make ton strikes
with all tho enthusiasm Of the
male scx. a fondncss and taste

A Military Family.

The Capers family Of the South

a Southern family---made n re-
marl1ablc fighting record during
the late war. From the album OF
a friend wo send you tho follow,

monest and most. seductive means
Of escape. ,"~ J .'a..g.o.f .I. {,
In dealing with this subject it is
too 'oftcn forgotten that there il a
class Of persons much concerned
in it who may suffer considerably
| from Tho notion that flirting "ls
an innocent kind Of amusement. "
1t was only last month that u Lon
don barrister read out in court tho
letters of an erratic bagman who
had jiltod a. dress maker as bril-
llantly rs aguardsman might have
Tilted tho daughter Of a rural
squire. Whenever these breach
OF promise cases turn up, wo may
observe the grossness Of tho vice
Of Irritation with tho gliding quite
rubbed off it. ..
In too many examples the wo-
man has suffered the worst bctray
nj, sho not having as many things,
probably, to distract her mind as
her sister in higher circles. Hero,
indeed, tho amusement is not of
an innocent kind, and tho counsel
for the defendant has, as we know,
constantly to struggle for q miti-
CATION of damages by throwing in
observations as to the conduct of
the plaintiff, also inconsistent with
the view that filtration is a harm
less recreation. But it may be
said that Irritation is the luxury
of the rich; poor people cannot af-
ford tho entertainment, or when
they go about it blunder into un-
seemly catastrophes. 1t is doubt
tnl whether the we'll to-do after
all arc not worse off from tho Gus
tom than those beneath them.
Whatwas the meaning of the girl of
the period scandal? Why arc wo-
men accused Of heartlcss selfish
ness and extravaganza? It may
be, wo suspect that they have
sickencd Of honest love when SO
often disappointed Of it, and have
thon taken to tho drugged cup Of
tlirtation. London this year has
not been FREQ from strange rumors
OF the consequences Of "this irno-
cent kind Of nonsense" in various
quarters. a littlo smoke in this
case shows Il great deal Of smoul-
dcring fire, and modern society
needs no instructions or incitations
to "that bright and animated in
lorcourse which makes tho hours
pass so easily" The Saturday Re-
u'e'n hints that to go too far is to
spoil the sport. Like wine, or to-
bacco, or the byciclc, you may
have too much Of u good thing.
Filtration is one Of the few accom-.
plishments, luXuries, or sins, from
which wo would recommend total
abstinence to tho majority Of la
dies and gentlemen. Intimacios
will spring up Of spontaneous
and agreeable kind between men
and women, which need in no re-
spcct resemble that foolish, selfish.
or guilty exhibition of temporary
emotions mildly termed Irritation,
but which is simply u constructive
apology for derclicticns Of modest
behavior. ....
