Egyptian women have the Prettiest
hands in the world, and both American
and Partisan ladies are noted for the
beauty of their hands and feet. The lat
ter, who are exquisitely nice in every
detail regarding the adornment OF their
person, give particular attention to their
fingers and nails. Those who are able :
afford it, have a person called manicure
TO prepare their hands every day. The
process takes something like half an hour.
and the result gives the soft skin, hand
some almond shaped nails, and the white
half moon which is outlined on the low
er part of the nail next to the skin.
From twelve to thirty dollars month Is
earned by an experienced MANICURE, and
about six hundred ersons, both men
and women, are said to follow that pro
lesion in Paris alone.

THROUGH TO SIN FRANCISCO FOR
THO DOLLARS.

A railroad train latelyrmade the trip
from New York to San Francisco in less
than eighty-four hours, and man
named Micheal Ryan lately rode by rail
from Chicago to San Francisco for 50 in
currency. One railroading feat is as re-
markabIe as the other. Ryan was not
an authorized "dead- head either, but
legitimately cheat his way as matter
of business. He got off the trains
promptly when the conductors kicked
him of, and patiently waited for the
next, and so on through, and he made
it before the same relays of conductors
came round again to spoil his game. He
started with 81 and that would have
been quite sufficient if he had not be
come speculative toward the end of the
trip. He paid his dollar for what was
left of ticket which an emigrant sold
him, and he Immediately resold 1t for
81. This carried him into San Francisco
in triumph. Ryan is proud OF having
proved that the trip across the continent
can be made for 81, which is much
greater reduction in money than eighty

Vanity is as i'll at ease under indiffer-
ence as tenderness is under love which
il cannot return.
The most powerful of all beauty is
that which reveals itself after sympathy,
and not before it.
Who suppOses that it is an impossible
contradiction to be superstitious and
rational at the same time?
Honor comes from inward vocation
and hard won achievement; there is no
honor in donning life as livery.
The subtly varied love drama between
man and woman is often such as can
hardly be rendered in words put together
like dominos, according to obvious fixed
marks.
Often the grand meanings of faces, as
well as written words, may lie chiefly in
the impressions of those who look on
them.
A soul burning with a sense of what
the universe is not, and ready to take all
existence as fuel, is nevertheless held
captive by the ordinary wirework of local
forms, and does nothing in particular.
In many lives there is much, not only
of error and lapse, but of a certain
exquisite goodness which can never be
written nor even spoken, only OWNED
by each of US according to the inward
instruction of our own privacy.

Children demand that their heroes
should be feckless, and easily believe
them so; perhaps first discovery to the
contrary is hardly less revolutionary
shock to a passionate child than the
threatened downfall of habitual beliefs
which makes the world seem to totter
for Us in maturer life.
Macbeth's rhetoric about the impos-
sibility of being many opposite things in
the same moment referred to the clumsy
necessities of action, and not to the
subtler possibilities of feeling. We can
not speak loyal word and be meanly
silent, we cannot kill and not kill, in
the same moment; but a moment is wide
enough for a loyal and mean desire, for
the outlash of murderous thought, and
the sharp backward stroke of repentance.
Pre-eminence Is sweet to those who
love it, even under mediocre circum-
stances; perhaps it is not quite mythical
that slave has been proud to be bought
first; and probably a barn-door fowl on
sale, though he may not have understood
himself to be called the best lot, may
have a selfinformed consciousness of his
relative importance and strut consoled.
But for complete enjoyment the outward
and inward must concur.

Anna DIckImsOn's Debut as an

boston special to the Chicago Tribune.l
BosToN, May S.-Miss Anna E.
Dickinson made her oft-postponed
and long-anticipated debut on the
dramatic stage at the Globe theatre
tonight. The theatre was never so
full before. Never was there such
a brilliant audience within its doors.
Miss Dickinson was called before
the curtain at the end of every act,
and four times after the play was
over, retiring each time overbur-
dened with flowers. And yet, with
all this, it has not been given to
Miss Dickinson to mount in one
night the dramatic ladder which
every great actor has spent many
years in climbing. She has not the
dramatic instincts nor the genius to
take the place of the training and
experience every actor must have.
Miss Dickinson's stage presence
was prepOssessing. She wore a
light wig, and her dresses were ell
egent and costly. Her voice was
pitched in monotone, which be-
came intensely unpleasant before
the evening was over, for it was in
flexible, unsympathetic and became
endowed with = sharp, vibratory
quality when strained at all. Her
gate was stacy to the last degree,
and her gestures awkward and IN.
