Circus To-Day.

Notwithstanding the wet weather the
Southern Menagene and Circus was
largely attended yesterday afternoon
and last night. The proprietors con-
cluded to remain over another day and
will give an entirely new performance
this afternoon and evening. Among
the very clever people who perform in
the ring may be mentioned Miss Jennie
Tournour, the female jagler on horse
back and wonderful trapeze performer,
whose specially acts excite the greatest
enthusiasm among the audience. Mrs.
Josephine Sebastian Sweet, the daring
equestrienne, will appear in acts on the
celebrated Kentucky horse Tancred
Gus Stewart, the noted Shakspearean
clown, and host Of acrobats, riders
and specially performers will appear in
rapid succession. The performance to-

Duty OF a woman to be a Lodv

Wildness is a thing that girls cannot
afford. Delcacy is a thing which can
not be lost and found No art can re.
store to the grape its bloom. Familiar
ity without love, without confidence,
without regard, is destructive of all that
makes woman exalting and ennobling:
THE world is wide, these things are small,
They may be nothing, but they are all. :"
Nothing 1t is the first duty of wo-
man to be a lady. Good breeding is
good sense. Bad manners in woman is
immortality. Awkwardness may be inc.
radicable. Bashfulness is constitutional.
Ignorance OF etiquette is the result of
circumstances. All can be condoned,
and do not Danish man or woman from
the amenities of their kind. But self
possession, unshrinking and aggressive
coarseness of demeanor, may be reck-
oned as State prison offense, aud GER
tainly merits the mild form of restraint
called imprisonment for life. 1t is
shame ior women to be lectured on their
manners. IL Is bitter shame that they
need 1t. Women are the umpires Sf
society. : IL is they to whom all moote1
points should be referred. To be a lady
is more than to be prince. A lady is al
ways in her right inalienably worthy of
respect. To a lady, prince and peasant
alike bow Do not be restrained. Do
not have the impulses thatne restraint
Do not wish to dance with the prince
unsought. Feel differently. Be such
that you confer honor. Carry yourself
so lofty that men will look up to you for
reward, not at you in rebuke. The nat
ural sentiment of man. toward woman is
reverence. He loses large means Of
grace when he is obliged to account her
being to be trained into propriety. A
mans ideal is not wounded when a
woman fails in worldly wisdom; but if
in grace, in sentiment, in delicacy, in
kindness she should be found wanting,
he receives an inward urt-Gaa Ham

A saretoga Belle in 1874.

Here is the picture of the belle OF
Saratoga as she looks to-day: Hair
scolloped in front and braided down be-
hind in one straight braid ten inches
long, which hanging from the hat looks
like the handle of dipper. Hat on
back of the head, with narrow brim
turned up and down and sidewlse, and
skewed and twisted around as If it had
been run over By locomotive. Face
yelled with tulle, which is also mutfled
around the neck so that the chin rests
on it, and the head looks like hen on
nest of down. Dress black yak or
grenadine, short enough not to touch
the floor, straight down in front, but
long behind, and pulled back over the
hips. No hoops, and the bottom Of the
dress so narrow that the young lady can
not take long steps.
How does she walk2
She don't walk; she wriggles along as
men do in sack race. This dress
shows the form beautifully, and is a
great improvement on the old flowing
skirt Young ladies are now standing
perfectly erect. Their chests are ex-
panded and their shoulders are thrown
back. The shoes worn are the only part
of the toilet subject to criticism. These
are narrow, high heeled bunion makers.
They cause the young lady to limp, and
they must be the cause of great deal of
pro sanity when the young lady is left
alone. The parasol is a big black or
blue or brown umbrella, and bordered
with lace. Fans are ordinary and more
for use than ornament. Hair is worn
natural, and as yet no young ladies here
appeared with saffron colored locks.
Beauty is not of the Lydia Thompson
school, and only the demi monde dye,
paint or powder Gloves are from three
to six buttoned. No lockets, neck
chains or watch chains are worn; the
jewelry being rings, plain pin and
chatelaine braid, or oxidized silver chain
hanging from the belt, to which is sus
pended oxodized smelling bottles, pocket
book or anything else which fancy may
attach.-Ei Perkins.

A curious story is told about a New
York lady at Long Branch. 1t appears
that she was in bathing one morning last
week, when the undertow was apparently
stronger than usual Not intimidated in
the least, however, by the knowledge of
this fact, she wandered out very far for
a young lady who couldn't swim, and
finally got beyond her depth, as women
sometimes do. Her screams were heard
by gentleman friend who was also
bathing with the waves, and he CALAMITY
swan out to her rescue. The moment
he came up to her she clasped him fran
tically about the neck, and both were IN
absolute danger Of being drowned. He
shouted to her to let go her hold, and he
would land her safely on the beach. She
didn't heed him, and he was becoming
exhausted trying to keep her above
water. He repeated his entreaty,
and added if she didn't do as
he said he would have to strike her.
She paid no attention to the threat
and only frightened her hold, and both
went under. AS they arose the specta-
tors on the beach were amazed to see
the gentleman strike the lady two vio-
lent blows on the head, in quick success
sion. She became insensible, and in
this way was gradually towed to the
beach by the selfpossessed, but very
much worn cut young man. That even
ing the la6y's father called her rescuer
to account for daring to strike his
daughter, and demanded an apology.
This the young man refused to give, and
stated that unless he had struck the lady
as he did and when he did, both would
have been lost. Those who have heard
the seory take sides with, the gentleman
who acted so nobly, and say all manner
of hard things about the stupidity and
ingratitude of the lady whose life he
saved. 1t may be well to state that me
lady in question has not yet thanked. her
former friend, but has snubbed ; m di.
rect. The story is strictly true,

A Paris correspondent tells the fol-
lowing story; There are in Paris many
public places OF resort in which ladies
are not allowed to enter without being
accompanied by some representative Of
the sterner sex. Among these places is
the concert of the Champs Elysees, Sc
favorably known by American travellers
who go there to enjoy the fresh, cool air
of the garden while listening to the
strains of a very remarkable band OF
musicians. Quite recently a lady pre-
sented herself at the gate and was stop

He Knows How to Tap n Beer Ker.

got out OF bdsiness and considered
that he WIS too advanced in age to do
hard work, concluded to start grocery

End, yesterday morning, while preparing
for opening the establishment concluded
that he would tap the kegs of beer left
on the previous day. A friend, who was
present, seeing him approaching one Of
the kegs with an auger, inquired what
he was going to do. and learned that he
intended to tap that beer" The cues
toner suggested that the proper way
was to place the faucet in position, and
drive in the cork which the revenue
stamp covered, but the old gentleman
concluded that his way was the best
and forthwith forced hole through the
top Of the key. OF course the beer as
cended like a fountain as he withdrew
the anger, and he endeavored to sup
press it by putting his hand over the
hole, and, failing in this, by inserting his
finger. As a last resort, he sat down
upon it, calling loudly for some one to
hand him a faucet, but meanwhile tie
beer had forced its way through mis-
pants, climbed upward, and was oozing
out everywhere = emerging frou his
waistband, and even at his shirteollar,

hard that they we're unable % do any
