One of the most satisfactory evidences Of
permanent gain In sensible IDEAS in regard to
dress II to be found In the clothing Of children.
Twenty-Five years ago low necks, short sleeves,
bare legs, thin shoes, linen and cambria, with .
modicum Of fannel, and stfG whaleboned
corset for girls - soon - they were able to
walk, were q . rule with mothers who wished
to "form" their children md have the credit of
dressing them prettily. r.-s.s.. =
Now, knitted wooden underclothing, like that
Of adults, u In such demand that it pays to
grade Il 70 every age. Dresses are cut with
high pecks, long s,seves, and skirts that come
to the top Of The boots. Warm striped hose
extend ron the thighs, thick boots cover the
fest, 1nd the variety Of furred And knitted
muflsge, and wraps Of every description, Is 50
great that children are in as much danger from
the exclusion Of air as they were said to be
from exposure TO Il.
Corsets for girls have disappeared so entirely
that even waists with cords, lately introduced,
are looked ut askance; many mothers thinking
they see the eloven foot behind this simple
auxiliary. As for the ribbon strings, listing,
elastic, and the like, formerly used as garters,
they have disappeared sltogether, and been re-
placed by sssuspendcrs," which hold the stock
ing without I'm the least binding the leg.
These are IDEAS with which the children of
this generation are born, and into which they
grow. Fashion cannot uproos them, change
how II may; Il viii therefore have 10 conform
to them. And thus the work goes on.-N 7.

The Maine Industrial School for Girls.

The undersigned take this method to inform
the public that they have been appointed by
the board of directors of the above named in
stitution committee to make AN appeal for
the last assistance needed to render the school
ready for occupancy.
By the favor of the state and the generous
aid of a few of our citizens, the ultimate estab-
lishment and success of the school have been
assured. 1t only remains for a slight contribu-
ton to be made on the partl of the public to
open it to those who so much need its whole
some restraint and influence.
A substantial and admirable building has
been erected on the banks of the Kennebec at
Hallowell. Provision has been made by the
managers to furnish all its rooms except the
sleeping apartments of the girls. These apart
ments to the number of thirty, it is proposed
to furnish uniformly in a neat and comfortable
dollars each, amounting to but seven hundred
and fifty dollars.
The committee respectfully urge upon every
one who may be interested in this worthy EN-
terprise, and who may be able to do so. and
especially upon the several churches, the ex-
cellence of the opportunity here presented to do
real and permanent good. They ask that the
amount necessary to furnish one or more rooms
may be forwarded at the earliest practicable
opportunity to Simon Page, Esq, of Hallowell,
name of the donor, and statement of the OBJ
ject to which it is to be applied, They feel
confident that this appeal will not be in vain,
but that when the furniture is needed the funds
will have been accumulated, in the manner
proposed, to purchase it. Thus the school will
not fail to enter at once upon the active useful
ness for which it is designed.

THE GRAND ARMY FAIR.


Early yesterday morning City Hall was alive
with the members of Bosworth Post, who were
busy arranging the articles on the tables to be
ratified for in the evening. The articles were
all numbered and a corresponding number
nut on the back of the tickets sold. This was q
great task, but was all completed in time for
the opening in the evening.
The grocery store began business at an early
hour. The sales were large and by noon but
few articles remained. These were put to.
pether and sold at auction in the evening.
The live birds were taken down and the
stuffed birds alone remained. In the evening
at seven o'clock the crowd began to pour in.
Nearly every one Bought two or three tickets,
and some as many as dozen. By eight o'clock
the galleries and main hall were literally packed
with people. The young ladies improved the
opportunity to look after their favorite rafies.
One young man was taken by force, carried in
to the flower booth and there detained until he
took five tickets in cigar stand Other can
vassers were more gentle and probably did just
as we'll.
Every ticket was sold and all the articles on
the tables disposed of in short order

The stick Of candy given by Mr.. Cow, was
taken by three young men who each guessed
the same weight. Although this was a small
affair it Melted the fair $13 1t was about II
o'clock before the last rattle was decided, and
midnight before the hall was closed
To-day the hall will be cleared, land this even
ing the fair will close up with grand promen-
AIDE concert. The tickets sold briskly yester-
day and last evening and the hall will doubtless
be crowded. If it is not it will not be at all in
keeping with the rest of the affair.
