The Tied Back Dress.

The Boston Courier, in an article on
the pinned and pull back style of dress,
would not make Greek slaves and Lady
GodiVas of the wives and daughters OF
the land but neither would it have them
so swathed in clothes as to refute to the
eye all the anatomy of the books and
raise suspicion that these lovely visions
are constructed like mermaids. 1t is
reasonable to presume, says the Courier,
that God knows how to build a woman,
and that having finished piece of work
of that kind and pronounced it very
good, he does not require or desire it to
be so adorned that it can only be recog-
nized in its structural grace and beauty
by an act of blind and blundering faith.
Hence, after these many years OF multi
farioGs and unserviceable wrapping, we
are inclined to regard the pinned-back
skirt as revelation, with the finger of
Providence in it, intended to revive con-
tidence in the first chapter of Genesis,
and to restore to a cheating and doubt
ing world the old conceptions of the fe-
male form divine, which the ancients
made classic in their history. their poe
try, and their sculpture. 1t does not fol-
low that all display should be sacrificed
in this reformatory tightening of the
front breadths of skirts. On the contra
all the richness of texture and color that
the most athuent can afford. The sim
pie dress in which Homer enfolded Hell
en-the same that Aspasia and Cleopatra
wore-wanted nothing in magnificence
by reason of being SO fitted as to reveal
the outlines of the limbs. Petrarch's
Laura had only two dresses for state oc-
| casions, both cut to fit the figure almost
| like glove; but the plainness did not
prevent their being splendid with gay,
profuse and costly charms of hue and
| trimming. There is no limit, and there
should be none, to the possibility of bril-
liancy in woman's attire; only let the
| spectacle be honest, consistent, and har-
monious. To quote from M. Blanc's stud
les in this line of art-for art it is, of per-
suasive and fasclnative interest-'the
| picture should not be. lost in the frame"
! The face alone is not all of feminine
beauty; and it is not too much to say,
with one of our greatest latter-day phil
osophers, that the woman who but casts
a shadow of graceful figure on the wall,
confers favor on the world. Good luck,
then, to the pinned-back skirt, which
suggests more in the way of wholesome
and felicitous reform than all the woman
suffrage schemes that uneasy brains have
ever concocted.

An 0btuse Man.

She was a stylish young lady about Is
years old, and to accommodate friend,
she took the baby out for an airing. She
was wheeling it up and down the walk
when an oldish man, very warm, came
along and inquired for a certain person
supposed to live on that street She
nearly yelled her head off trying to an
swer him, and he looked around, caught
sight of the baby, and said:
Nice child. suppose you feel proud
of him p
"It isn't mine" she yelled at him.

you"

he nodded his head and continued:

She started off with the cab, but he
followed and asked
did it die of colic2'
Despairing of making him understand
by words of mouth, she pointed to the
baby, at herself and then shook her
head
"Yes-yes; 1 see-tother twin in the
house. Their father is fond of them, of
course"
She turned the cab and hurried the
other way, but he followed and asked

She started on run for the gate. but
before she had opened it he came up
and asked:
"Have to spank EN- once in awhile, l
suppose?
She made about 20 gestures in half a
minute, and he helped the cab through
the gate, and said:
'Our children were all twins, and I'll
send my wife down to give you some ad-

But she picket up a fower-put and
flung it at him. He jumped back, and
as she entered the house he called out :

A Dubuque medical student has come
to grief by reason of his remarkable tech
nical knowledge The young woman to
whom he was attached one morning re-
ceived the following note: Dear Ange-
line, l am sorry to inform you that in

neous Inflammation, characterized by a
pointed pustular tumor suppurating in

his home in agony of apprehension, and
found that he had only one of those
things of which Job had so many. When
she returned home her sensible mother
told her that she had better drop that

doubtless, beggar his family by buying
Latin Dictionaries and such. The mater

Growth VS. Clothes.
Permanent attraction comes from the cease
less newness of growth"


Mrs Hartley read this sentence over
and over, sitting in her front basement
with the work all done, and her hus,
bands unmade shirts lying in the basket
at her feet.
THE ceaseless newness of growth. ="
The words came to her like a revelation.
There is no such attraction about me,
she said to herself. 81 am not growing,
am drying up.
Then she fell to wondering if that was
the reason why John had lost his old ar
dent love for her. 1t was plain that he
didn't feel as he used to, say what be
would. He had just gone out, fresh.
hearty, gay, full of warm vital blood, and
he hadn't kissed her as he used to. She
was grieving over the commission of the
old caress when the bit of philosophy l
have quoted caught her eye.
Ah yes John was growing, and his
wife was standing still, or worse, and
there was no longer any equality. Mrs.
Hartley looked down at the shirts. John
had asked her to go to concert, with
him the night before, and she had plead
ed sewing as an excuse.
"Why don't you get woman to do
your sewing" he said 81 don't want
you to work yourself to death"
didn't hire a seamstress to do her work
The vain little woman wanted seal sack
and she was saving every cent, filling up
all her time with endless sewing, that
she might get the coveted article of
dress Mrs. A. had one, and Mrs. B.
and she wanted one so much, and John
wasn't able to get it, and pay a seam
stress bill, too. Indeed, he thought she
could get along without it, and wear her
comfortable beaver cloak.
1t had always been so; she had always
wanted to get something or do something g
beyond, her means, and had sacrificed
opportunities of growth that lay directly
in her way. When she went out with
j ohm, she knew nothing about the books,
or the pictures, or the music that other
people talked about. She knew that
folks wondered why that intelligent Mr..
Hartley had married such a common
place woman, and the knowledge made
her withdraw within herself, till nobody
guessed the power that was shut up in
hor soul.
Mrs. Hartley kept reading the SEN
tence, and conscience emphasized every
word, till the thrifty, Woodworking wife
felt like criminal.
"I'll let the sack go, she said with a
sudden heroic resolution, 'and make o
woman of myself; and poor Mrs. Brown
shall come tomorrow and have good
months work and comfortable quarters
this bitter weather"
So Mrs. Hartley dressed herself and
went to Mrs. Browns; then she subscrib
ed to the Philharmonic, and called on 6
friend whom she had long neglected
When she reached home she found Johr
there. He was greatly surprised to see
his wife coming in from the fresh winter

Max Adeler tells new story, the gist
of which is as follows: Bill Slocum was
nominated for Mayor of Pencader, and
one day, in street conversation, he re-
marked, "Tve got to win" He pro
nounced it. i've got twin and old
Mrs Martin, ,.overhearing it imperfectly,
went around and reported that Mrs. Slo-
cum had got twins. The boys at once
decided TO serenade Bill, and that night
they marched out to his house, with a
band playing Hail to the Chief" several
ward clubs, some fire companies, group
of whitedressed girls in wagon, lot of
banners, and plenty of enthusiasm. Bill
made a speech about the canvass, and
then there were shouts of Where's the
twins !" Hold 'em up to the window"
and the like. Bill said there was mis-
take, but the band sarcastically played.
Listen to the Mocking Bird" and the
boys shouted louder for the twins.
When the truth prevailed the assembly
dispersed in disgust, and Bill was over
whelmingly defeated at the polls.

A Smart Boy.

A New Hampshire school teacher was
questioning one of his classes upon the
anatomy of the human body, and stand
ing upon one foot. and swinging the 9th
er foot and limb, he inquired how many
bones he was moving Several incorrect
answers were given at first, but after it
had been answered correctly, the ques
ton was asked if any of the scholars
thought differently. little fellow, not
vet in his teens, raised his hand imme-
diately, signifed that he disagreed with
his schoolmates, and the teaches repeat
ed the question.
How many bones was l moving 2
He was astonished to hear the little chap
increase the proper number by one, in
the same breath, giving as his reason.
You were moving your jawbone, too.

His head was the shape and size of a
Bullitt county watermelon. and he was so
black that charcoal would make light
mark on him. The goat was asleep,
leaning against the side of the house.
The darkey was smoking decayed cigar.
He espied the goat, looked at the lit end
of the cigar, grinned, then at the tail end
of the goat, "grinned louder" looked all
around to see that nobody was looking,
aud touched the lit end of that cigar to
the tail end of that goat. The goat turn
ed handspring, and the negro opened
his big mouth to laugh, but the goat
butted him so quickly between the chin
and his breeches pockets that his jaws
came together, making noise louder
than the report of a gun. The negro's
hat, boots, and cigar in pile, ten feet off,
while his body was curled up like a
horseshoe in the mouth of sewer open

round at each one in the crowd, and dis

Some years ago in western India an
impostor levied a war tax in the out-of-'
the-way villages in the name and on ac-
count of the Queen. His credentials
were simple, but effective, and consisted
of an empty Crosse d Blackwell pickle
jar with the oval arms on the label, and
a paper scrawled over in imitation of
English writing, to which was affixed
seal, which was simply the impression of
the bung of mustard jar. And yet
with these credentials he succeeded in
levying a good deal of money until he
ventured into some village where the
people were more advanced.

Love and Death.

When the end comes, and we must say goodbye
And am going TO the quiet land;
And sitting in some loved place. hand in hand,
For the last time together, you and 1,
We watch the winds blow, and the sunlight lie
About the spaces of our garden home,
Soft by the washing of the western foam,
Where we have lived and loved in days past by:
We must not weep, my darling, or upbraid
The quiet Death who comes to part us twain:
But know that parting would not be such
pain
Had not our love perfect flower been made.
And we shall find it in Gods garden laid
On that sweet day wherein we meet again.

He was lodger in an unpretentious
Brooklyn boarding house, and for several
days the landlady's daughter, a senti-

him to write something in her album.

words: II never could make rhymes,

With little thought or care
Whether my waking find

Its cunning now
To march the weary march,
