Origin Of Fashions.

Trace fashion to it's origin (says an
exchange), and you will nearly always
find that it springs from the conscious
ness of defect and wish to mask IT.
The fatherland of crinOline is Spain,
and Spanish queen first wore hoops
to dissimulate unequal hips. An act
ress of the Boulevards, who attempted
suicide by throwing herself over bal
cony few years ago.revlved the high
heeled shoes which Louis Quatorze
originally brought into fashion to al-
pear taller than the King OF Spain at
the meeting in the Isle Of Pheasants.
A Franch lady, who derives prestige
from rank, fortune. and striking
beauty. scalded her arms three winters
back. An ugly mark bore witness to
the accident. She thought OF wearing,
to conceal it. those long-armed gloves
which. out of mercy to the pleblan
wives of Napoleon marshals and gen
erals, the Empress Josephine adopted
The hats slanting down over the eye
brows were the result of Il lady OF eX-
allied rank losing her front hair. Queen
Elizabeth S neck was yellow AMI thin
hence the ssstiff muslin name. The
double veil of white and black tullt
was contrived by lady with a bat
complexion. She used pearl powder
to hide her red skin, and the white
and black veil to dissimulate the pear
powder, which, would have shown OF
the black net. An old Partisan beau
with an experience OF more than hal
century of fashionable society ther'
and at the Continental gambling ant
watering places, maintains that, whei
, fashion is not traceable to a deform
: ity, it must have originated IN the &c
sire Of some reigning or rising belle t
crush rival.

How He Rounded the Lake.

He was tramp, bound Chicagoward,
and as he boarded the couplers at the
rear Of an incoming engine, just across
the line in Indiana, one recent dark
and chilly night, he had faith to be-
lieye that he had 'ssoft thing OF it
for a cheap ride. But the conductor,
with his eagle eye and railway lantern,
soon espied the moneyless passenger
on his uncushiOned and comtortless
seat. Did he order him off ! No. He
had deeper plot. He let him remain,
while on and on went the train, from
station to station. until it reached
great tank. where the engines stop to
'swater-up.'

over the head and down the back OF

All grew still and the conductor OF

American and English Time Servers.

The great difficulty in this country
is that we have no time for anything.
The very walk of an American shows
that he is in a hurry. An Engllshnean
buttons his coat and gloves and goes
to business as deliberately as he goes
TO church. An American business
man flies after the car, struggling with
his coat sleeves as he runs, plunges IN
head foremost and plunges out at the
end without.regard to his neck. Chle1
among our accidents stand those which
occur because people will jump upon
flying trains or after departing boats.
TO wait ten minutes is something not
to be thought Of Dinner is not eaten
it is swallowed whole, and WheL
one Genes to the dessert he finds that
the fruit was picked before 1t was
ripe.
! Everything is hurried through, from
the building Of house TO the curing
| of hams. The women who work Oh
sewing machines stop before they
come to the end OF the seam. The
dressmaker sends home your dress
with basting threads in 1t and no loops
to hang it up by.
There is none Of the slow, sure com
pleteness Of the old world about any
thing, and fortunes are made in a hur
) nv and lost in the same way. II any
man we know is getting rich by thu
slow and patient process Of saving. b.
sure that he was not born upon thl!
continent. Yet people live as Ions
here as they do anywhere else, ant
the days are the same length. why \
il we have no time for anything!

Domestic Side of the Betting Question.

politician who has wagered heavily IN

DeYNulation Of Peru.

The first census Of Peru since it
ceased TO be Spanish colony has just
been taken. 1t was the proposal o.
the President, Don Manuel Pardo, ana
its details will be scanned with much
regard by all who take an interest IL
the welfare Of the aboriginal races o.
mankind. as well as by not few
British capitalists. whose money was
allured out Of their pockets Tor invest
ment in Peruvian bonds, railways,
mines. and steamship companies. The
total of the population according to
the new number Of people amounts
to o.7oo, 735, q lamentable and An awful!
faillingnf, which is accounted for by
earthGd kes, disease, civil war. and
brandy.
Where the former agents Of destrnci-
ion have killed their thousands. the lat :
ter has killed tens Of thousands. In ad-
diticn to the importation OF hundreds
of thousands Of bottles Of spurious
spirits. the peruvians make tnei1
anuardiente, liquor stronger tha'
whiskey. which is sold in enormous
quantities and at great profit. Inc
probable consequence Of this increase

displacement OF the present race o.
Peruvians by the Chinese and TIE

Jealous French Count and his Betrothec-
Marriage Stipula ions.

Jealous French Count and his Betrothec-
Marriage Stipula ions.
| From the Hartford Times.
The notice Of the arrival at New
York of Earl Roseberry reminds me OF
tho number of American girls VINO
have been Tilted by foreigners on ac-
count of their lack of fortune. There
are more than one Of the fair bellies OF
Washington who have been similarly
treated. One young lady even went SO
far as to change her religion in order
to remove what the family called an
objection. Her lover departed with
the promise of returning. She has
never seen him since: but shortly al
ter his arrival in France he wrote to
announce his marriage to lady whom
his father had selected for him on ac-
count of the dover she brought. SIX
wears ago Count Turenne. one OF the
attaches of the French Legation,
plighted his troth to a beautiful girl IN
Georgetown. The Count met with an
accident in his childhood that has
dwarfed his proportions, and produced
a lameness from which he will never
, recover. Notwithstanding these de-
fects. the young lady preferred nm! 70
; all other suitOrS. The count s 1atheI
, refused his sanction to marriage
without the necessary settlement beng
made. This the young lady's father
E cannot do, without impoverlshlng MS
