The Man behind the ThFoLe.

the present struggle is destined TO be
pretty generally absorbed by the IOhen.

only once in the official telegram since

course, no reflection ppoR the bravery of
either the Princess, or of King William.
Both the former have played their part

Still, for the justice of the thing the rest
Of the world hardly likes to see the first
living General in Europe So wholly over
shadowed. 1t is easy enough to see that
the war if successful is to strengthen
the ruling regime 0f Prussia, to glorify
and establish the Hohcnzollerns as the
unquestioned rulers OF United Germany.
From what we know of Gen. Motkp, it
is not probable that the want OF romi-
neuce given to his name gives him any
great anxiety. Modest aud retiring in
ap unusual degree, he can well afford to
wait for the justice which history will
surely secure to him. The man who

The European War and the Fig-Leaf.

That moral reflector, the New York
Herdd, while turning aood of ligLt
upon the profound truism, "War is d
grand revolutionizer," hits on an event
ful question, dependent on the issue of a
stupenduous contest between France
and Prussia. Hitherto Paris has rnled
the world Of fashion with absolute sway.
ILoopskjrts, ehignons paniers, palpitators
ALI have come from Paris 10 deprave
the tastes and deplete the pockets Of the
fasl;onables, who bow in abject servility
TO the styles proclaimed in that imperial
city. The dreadful extent to which this
thing has gone, is put by our New York
contemporary in wOrds Uf ominous i'm
port: "Outside peoples (meaning MiS
peopie) have been used to dress thier
hair in the sheen of the gullotine, and
lace themselves according TO the order of
the bastiOn-breastwor the ickle
mood of the bouIevards" Startling, it,
deed! With all the hardihood of Ameri-
can constitution, what, we ask, is to be-
come OF us if we continue to dress our
hair in the sheen of the guiilotiDe or to
lace after tie order Of the bastiUn, or
other French breastworksT Is it not
high time that we should make an end
of it?
IL seems TO have struck the Uer0H in
that light, and, in consequence to have
aroused in that establishment an addi
tional interest in the war; for to that
does the editor look tor relief. If fPrus-
sia wins, France will be desolated and
the glory of Partisan fashions pass away
along with the glory of everything else
Frenchy. "The war OF artillery affrights
Fashion," and the Wdrseittdise may
bring return Of blouses and red-cai.s.
Under such circumstances, Fashion must
| fly, and whittier, but to this refuge of
nations. "We are ready" says the Her.
dtd, "to afford shelter 10 ths Pope, why
not also to build Gp native temple to
Fashion" ?" Wherefore, why not? Ma
tional pride impels us to it. AS our CO.
temporary shows, sit would enable us to
impose"-not our glorious Institutions
but ''pantaloons aud pe,icoats on the old
world" Let us hope then, for Prussian
victories, that we may put the efftte
monarchIes where they belong, into pet
coats.
In this connection the great daily nat
urallv airs it's notions of fashion. and re-
curing to the good old days, ''the fig
leaf of the first lady in Eden as a stand
ard" Not however to encourage the
too abrupt departure from the demoraI
izing French modes, in onr attempts at
a native style. the editor suggests that
the Gglesf is susceptible Of ''simple
elaboration, toward complete and be-
coming vesture."
Recently we took the ground that as
p people, the Americans had no direct
concern in the EngAty transatlantic
struggle. Let US qualify our position.
The war may take us back to the fig
leaf.-Cm. Commercial.

Among the Chinese at North Adams
rice is the principal component of each
meal, and it is fanked by beet, fish or
pork, boiled potatoes, beans and other
eatables, and the inevitable tea. Supper
and breakfast are made from rice, with
fish sauce, resembling in appearance an
chovy, string beans, etc., and tea. The
scrupuloGs Deatness Of the cook and
kitchen utensils is commented on by all,

DAILY SOgI WoRK.-The world is full
of broad, popular, shallow religious life.
There are mullitudes of religious books,
enterprises, societies, assemblies aud as
socia,ions. There is, no doubt, much
piety, zeal and enthusiasm in all this, as
well as much speecll-making, self-praise,
and trumpet-blowing
But mems sins are not pardoned, nor
their souls saved, by the glittering gen
eralities whic" go to occupy the atten-
ton of the religious world. Men will
will be ignorant, even in colleges, if they
do not learn; hungry ip cooks shops, if
they do not eat aud lost ia the midst of
religious tumult, if they do not have
personal dealings with the Lord.
We must have our daily sonl-work be-
tween ourselves and God, our secret
communion with Him, or we shall starve
even though surrounded by plenty, We
must read our own Bibles, do our own
praying, and believing, and weeping be-
fore the Lord, conquer our own enemies
in the strength which Jesus gives and
grow in grace and in the knowledge OF
God sipgly and in His sight. We can
not be pardoned in masses or saved in
crowds. Strait is the gate, and each
must find it and enter IL tor himself
alone. lie: us beware lest, in seeking
outward excitements, we forget and
lose the biessedness of inward Christian
life. Let as walk with God.

ERECT CARRIAGE. erect nait gives
to woman a queenly appearance, and
to men all air of manlness, integrity and
tearlessness. To bend forward or down
ward while walking, indicates debility,
depression or mental trouble, and always
aggravates itself and promotes disease.
Pads and supporters are all peHniriqHs,
and are worse than useless because, they
teach the system to rely en- them, and
cannot support one part of the body
without causing an unnasSral strain ON
some other part. There is always an
easy, available successful method of.ac-
quiring al erect, manly gait, without aky
material effort or feeling Of awkward
ness. Let the chin be little above q
horizontal line, which is easily done by
keeping the eye fled on the top of some
persons hat or bonnet in front Of you.
The habit of this erect carriage may be
facilitated by accustoming yourself,
when at home, in the garden, or Otker
places, to walk with the hands behind,
held IN one another, and the head thrown
up, as IS done in smoking a cigar OF
singing tune-Jo,Tnai Of Health.
