1t was worthy of note that while a
malignant hatred of Chinese individual,
ly is fomented under cover of hostility
to their immigration, our females have
fallen in love with Chinese costumes and
customs, in some respects, and accepted
them as models. The pictures of Chinese
ladies to which one has been accustomed
for many years bear close resemblance
to the American belle of the present
day. The repulsive hump, the crippled
feet, aud the mincing gait OF our women,
if they do not fortify the Darwinian
theory of the origin of the species from
monkeys, at least give the appearance of
retrograding monkeyward. The dress,
uncouth and reforming as it is, would
not Of itself deserve notice, but the high
heels, Gripping the feet and distorting
the limbs, are an outrage on grace, on
anatomy, on humanity, emitting the
authors, could they be detected, to crim-
inal responsibility. A convention of
corn doctors in the interest of their
trade could not devise better scheme
for good times. Women whose pedals
are solicited may escape with only corns,
of which we hope and pray they may
have full and tender crop. But that
a whole generation of little girls should
have their toes jammed into the toes Of
their boots, to do the work of heels, and
that their legs should be thrown out of
the natural balance and the plant bones
bent into semi-circles, is q sacrifice to
fashion which would disgrace nation
of HOttentOts.

A FRENCHMAN with rheumatic govt
found this singular remedy cure for his
ailment: He insulated his bedstead from
the floor by placing underneath each
post broken.off bottom of glass bot
tie. He says the effect was magical,
that he had not been free from rheumatic
govt for fifteen years, and that he began
to improve Immediately after the appli
cation of the insulators. We are re-
minded of this statement of patent OBJ
tanned for physician some twelve or
more years ago, which created consider
able interest at the time. The patent
consisted in placing glass cups under the
bedposts in asimilar manner to the above
and the pantee claimed to have effected
some remarkable cures by the use of his
glass insulators.

Two of the most celebrated artists the
world has ever known dwelt in the same
city. One delighted in delineating beauty
In all its graces Of tint, form, and motion.
His portraits were instinct with the charm
of physical vigor. The graceful, half-volup.
tuous outline Of form and feature harmo-
nized with delicately blended tints. On his
irresistible charm. The other found pleas
ure only in depicting weird and gloomy sub.
jects. Above all. did he excel in painting
the portraits of the dying. The agonizing
death-throe, the CHASTITY face and form, were
all depicted with marvellous fidelity. There
existed between these artists the most in
tense dislike. At length this dislike Gull
minated. The beauty.loving artist had been
engaged in painting the portrait of beau
tiful woman. ConnoisseuIs pronounced ii
the most wonderful piece Of art that had
ever been produced His brother artist was
jealous OF his fame and sought revenge. By
bribing the keeper OF the studio he gained
access to the picture each night. At first
he was content to only deaden the brilliancy
OF the complexion and eyes, efface the
bloom from cheek and lip, and paint a
shadow on either cheek. Later, his strokes
grew holder and freer, and one morning the
artist awoke to find the entire outline of the
portrait changed. He could scarcely recog-
INV III bho Cihdclutcu ioriu uuu udgBdru
countenance the glowing conception he had
embodied. The pallid face and expression.
less eyes he had attributed to a lack of
genuineness in the materials; but when the
outlines were changed he suspected the
cause and Indignantly dismissed the keeper.
What the revengeful artist married by few
rapid strokes of his skillful brush, was only
restored by years of patient industry.
Reader, need we name the artists: Health,
who paints the flowers and "grassy carpet1
no less than the human form divine; Dis
ease, the dreaded artist who revels among
the ruins both of nature and humanity; and
Carelessness, the keeper to whom Health
often intrusts his portraits. And is it not
the beauty OF the woman, the most admired
of all the works which adorn the studio of
Health, that Disease oftenest seeks to mar
The slightest stroke of his brush upon the
delicate organization leaves an imprint that
requires much skill and patience to efface.
Restoration must be prompt. Carelessness
must be dismissed. Let suffering women
heed the warning ere Disease has marred
their chief beauty, Health, beyond repara-
ton. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
has been used by thousands of these suffer
ers, and they are unanimous in their praise
Of its excellence. If you would be trans.
formed from the pallid, nervous invalid
into happy, vigorous woman, try it. $50

Useful Information.


REMEMBER that tablespoonful OF
black pepper will prevent gray or buff
linen from spotting If stirred into the
first water in which they are washed. 1t
will also prevent the colors running,
when washing black or colored cambrics
or muslins, and the water is not injured
by it, but just as soft as before the pep
per was put in.
Mr.. VIRGIL w. BLANCHARD, Of New
York, has discovered cure for drunken
ness, which may be described in brief as
a diet of bran, potato skins, milk, eggs,
and fish. Without the bran and potato
skins the diet would be endurable, and
perhaps nutritious, but with them it
would be too unattractive to win the
drunkard from his inebriOus way.

AN easy method of protecting house
plants in cold weather, and one, too,
that has proved efectual as far as tried,
except where the house is very cold or
the weather extremely severe, is to place
the plants at night, before the room has
become cool, in a compact form on the
floor or table, and then encircle them
with a stiff board or paper such as is
used for building purposes, of sufficient
width to inclOse the plants, making a
top of the same material, or covering
with carpets or blankets, or both also,
laying cloths around the lower edge of
the paper. Shielded in this way, the
plants will go through unframed, when
water freezes in the room outside.

New YORK Graphic: A Boston cores
pendent of the Pail Mali Gazette de-
scrbes at much length and minuteness a
boat ride which he enjoyed behind a
couple of sperm whales off Lynn, the
whales being harnessed and driven by a
Yankee. The English seem to be much
excited about it, but we assure them it
is very common thing. In Boston the
severest punishment father can inflict
on his daughter is to prevent her from
going out to drive the whales down the
bay i'm the afternoon. '.tt.t|

POPularIty.

The popularity of Messrs. James 8. Kirk &
Co.'s soaps, manufacturedinC hicago,is shown
by the unprecedented sale which their goods
have reached during the year 1876. This byfar
is the largest soap manufacturing concern in
the United States, producing and selling in
all parts Of this country, from the Red River
of the North to New Orleans, and from Port
land, Me-, to San Francisco, %, 600, 900 pounds
annually. No so-called greases enter into
these soaps. Only pure refined tallow and
vegetable oils are used, containing no adul-
teration. Fair and square weights always re-
liable. This is why their soaps are so popular
with all good and economical housekeepers.

ANTI-DYsPEPTIc GRAHAM BREAD
Stir into cold water as much Graham
-four as can be put in. Then, with the
hands, work the dough faithfully. After
q few minutes kneading you may be able
to work in more four-the more the bet
ter, for if there is not enough the bread
will be tough. The dryer the dough is
made by adding -four the tenderer the
bread will be. Then roll out the dough
thinner than for pie-crust. Bake in
sheets on iron or tin pans This bread
will keep for long time if kept in a
warm place, and is exceedingly sweet
and palatable, and very easy of digestion.
1t is good plan to break the sheets into
squares and put into coarse linen bag
and hang it up back of the stove. :

LOUISVILLE Coyier-Journol: Last
night Jinks gave boy an old pistol and

doorbell of the residence of his
mother in law. The boy "per-
suaded" ten feet of rope and that
goat up to the front door, tied one end
of the rope to the bell.pull, gave it a
jerk, and then lit out" The bell rang
at fearful rate, and the goat was
wrestling that door-bell and rope in a
frightful way trying to get loose. Pres
emily the front door opened; a form
looking like the ghost OF Hamlet, hold
ing candle in its hand, stood there.
The goat took q running jump, head on,
for the figure, and struck it so hard that
the form and goat went clear into the
hall, after lighted candle and a pair of
specks that started about the same time
for the back room. The fight between
Jinkss mother-in-law and that goat was
terrible, but Of short duration. He rot
his horns fast in her hustle, pulled the
old woman out in the front yard, and
was backing out the gate with her, when
o policeman cut the goat loose, got stood
upon his head, and the old lady crawled
into the house.
