Important Legal Decision.

The recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court given by Justice
Miller in the case of j. K. Place & Co. :,
of New York, is an instance when law
and equity have joined hands to protect
the shOn creditors from the wiles and
devices of dishonest business men filing
voluntary petitions i'll bankruptcy. Like
hundreds of others hefore him, Place
had taken money from his business, had
Invested it in real estate, and had set
tied the same upon his wife. Without
doubt, both of them had concurred III
the idea that it would be good thing,
while business was prosperousand credit
was good, to build nice home, and Sc
cure the same against all possible con-
tingencies Of the future. The plan was
accordingly adopted and carried out, the
fine residence was erected ON Fifth ave-
nue., properly transferred and secured
Gas they thought, and then Mr.. Place
and wife were ready to submit 10 the in
evitable reverses of fortune with a read
Ter grace and a more submissive will.
But the over-bold creditors stepped in
just here, and very forcibly questioned
the right of Place to thus use theiJ money
for his own personal purposes without
as much as saying, "By your leave. "
Or, in other words, after Place K Co.
had failed, the creditors insisted that the
Fifth avenue property should be sold,
and the proceeds reckoned in with the
other assets of the firm. Whereupon
Mrs Place, Though her agents, objected,
and the case was carried successfully
through the local District Court, the
Circuit Court, and then up to the United
States Supreme Court, from. which a
decision has been given that said Fifth
avenue property, inasmuch as ii was
purchased with money taken .fr'ona the
business, rightfully belongs to the COM
panys creditors, its transference to the
wife in the meantime to the contrary
notwithstanding.
This decision, coming as it does from
the highest legal tribunal in the land,
and therefore final in its nature, becomes
very important to the wives of all bust
ness men who may be fancying that
property thus secured to them by their
husbands. is safe from all further mo-
lestation 10y legal processes. IT is also
very important to business men them
selves, showing them, as It does, that all
such gay and festive schemes to defuaud
their lawful creditors of that which has
been intrusted to their naanagemanb and
care for the time being, will be sure
hencefogth to gang afi agley. Chi

Summer Diet.

DR.. w. H- Vail publishes an article on
summer diet, and starts with the follow
ing argument: @God, in His provi-
dence, has stocked the polar region with
the seal, the whale and the bear; all the
personification of fat and oil-while vege-
tation is comparatively unknown. On
the other hand, as You approach the
tropics, oranges, bananas, lemons, and
all our luscious fruits greet you on every
hand, and vegetation runs wild. This
disposition of providence teaches us
what our appetites confrm-that in cold
weather our diet should consist mainly
of oily substances, or such food as is
converted into fat by the process OF
digestion; while I'M thasummerw we should
select such articles of diet as are not con-
vertible into fat" DIR. Vail adds that
vegetables, the edible parts of which
ripen underground, such as potatoes,
carrots and pausnips, are heat-producing,
while those that ripen above ground are
cooling. The latter. including especially
asparagus, lettuce, peas, beans, toma-
t. es, corn, and all frnits, should be freely
eaten. Meatshould not be eaten oftener
than twice day, and lean is preferable.
Ha particularly recommends tomatoes.

Jananase Damsel,s Toilet.

The toilet preparations of japanese
damsel are of no light consideration, and
to be in good time for the feast she must
be up and dressing long before the sun
n1ses from behind Fuji, the great sacred
mountain. The long, coarse tresses OF
black hair must be washed, combed and
creased till the head shines like knob
of polished black marble. The cheeks
must be rouged to the proper tint, the
throat, neck and bosom powdered-care-
fully leaving, however, on the neck
three lines of the brown skin of the own
er, in accordance with the rules of ia
panese cosmetic art. Then the eyebrows
must be carefully rounded and touched
with black, the lips redeemed with cher
ry paste, with patch of gliding in the
center. When all this has been done,
and she gets together proper allowance
of pocket-handkerchief paper, her to-
bacco pouch, pipe and fan, she sallies
forth.

IL you'll keep II secret-honor bright
III tell you little story, Joe
Something that happened to me last night
Here at the masquerade ball, you know.
You may have noticed I've spooned ofllate
on Laura Clyde-nothing else TO do
She's rather pretty-at any rate,
Fond Of flirting, and am, too.
Iaura's friend Of my Sister FAM
Her room joiDs mine, and the walls are.thiD'
SO I, by accident, heard them plan
Their dresses for masquerading in.
The ball was lovely, the costumes fine,
And either dancing or iced champagne
Can't say which, but expect the wine
Just a little confused my brain.
O meeting LAURA gypsy maid
Knew her at once by her dress, you see
/ took her out for promenade
On the piazza alone with me.
"F1irted?" Said was deep in love-
Madly worshiped the ground she trod,
Vowed il by all below, above;
Did she return IL IA word, nod 2
The fair head dropped in assent and
Snatched off the mask-with rapture kissed her
peal of laughter my reply,

Laugh at me, Joe! Don't spare my pridel
Nor mind my feelings-I feel so glad
II was my sister, not Laura Clyde;
Heavens! What an escape had
