ARABgLLA's APPEAL.
A sturdy Feminine Protest Against
Long Dresses.

The New York Post, OF Thursday,
publishes the following communion
ton from Arabella:
For some years we ladies have en-
oyed the the privilege Of walking the
streets in short dresses-dresses so
short. that is TO say that they no long

Nobody but a woman knows how

What is the use Of the Sorosis
Clubs, If they can't put down this
monstrous and filthy abomination?
Wbot is the use OF the American Fe-
male Suffrage Association. if it can
not oppose this last decree of some
French woman with large feet?

Al Important Discovery In Cancer
therapeutics.

Az the recent annual scientific
meeting, held at the New York Medi-
cal University, Professor Scott read
an interesting paper upon an entirely
new method of treating cancer, which
gives promise of the alienation Of
much human misery. The treatment
Of cancer has hitherto been empirical
and factory-chloride of zi5c,
nitric acid and arsenic, the remedies
usually employed, being painful, dan

The Hartford Times says "a gentle
man of this city, who found the rats
too cunning to be caught. circumvent-
ed them by hanging a piece of meat
to q hook, just high enough to COM
pei the rat, in order to reach it, to
stand on his hind legs, and set under
it wide shallow dish Of vitriol. Into
this the rodents must step ere they
could get at the meat-and he hid
himself aud watched. One rat came,
stood up, snuffed at the meat, then
walked around the dish, smelling at
the vitriol, and finally dashed in. In
the midst of his feast something hurt
his hind quarters. and he left-drag-
ging himself along the ground to wipe
off the burning liquid. BY and by
another came, went through the same
performance. and left-n hurry. No
rats have been heard of on those
premises since The whole colony
skedaddled."

ERIE RAILWAY.
Luxuries of Modern Travel

The question which to-day most forcibly
presents Itself TO the prospective traveller
is not " BY what line can l earliest reach
my destination" (for running parallel
with each other, the competing lines make
western and eastern termini) but "By
which rorte can travel with the greatest
degree OF comfort and of freedom from
those anfioyances hitherto considered in
sepaTablS from a journey of a thousand
miles or mOre?"
The inquiry is easily answered. Seated
in one OF the spacious and luxuriously
finished Drawlng-room coaches peculiar
TO the broad guage Erie Railway, running
without change from Cincinnati, Cleve-
land, Dunkirk, Buffalo. and Rochester to
New York, the traveller finds lacking none
OF the comforts and conventencies of his
own home. ROomy seats, neat Washing
and Dressing rooms, parlors well ventil-
ated and cool In summer, warmed by
steam In winter, and illumined by gas
when night comes, attentive servants, and
"A view Of the grandest of American
scenery, all combine to transform the
formerly slow and tedious journey into
an enhancing panorama, the termination
of which comes only too quickly to the
beholder. At the Com pany's hotels along
the line, the traveller allghts TO refresh the
