Useful Employment.

New York Observer.
1t gives us pleasure to learn by letter
from Scotland, that the gentlemen" who
were recently directors of the City of
Glasgow Bank are now making them
selves useful as well as ornamental by
picking oakum in the State Prison. We
say that ,this fact gives us pleasure; not
that we feel other than profound pity for
the downfall and misery of these once
respected men. But we are glad that JUS
tice has overtaken such men, who knew
better, had no temptation, but with light
and knowledge to do right, wilfully
plunged into wrong-doing, bringing ruin
upon thousands of innocent persons. 1t
were we'll if in this country careless and
criminal trustees could be in the same
manner made to taste the bitterness of
sin, and to illustrate the truth that the
way of transgressors is hard.

Of Percy Emile Dalgatty Pleas
anton, on "Gents' Furnishing
Goods.n At the conclusion of the
reading Mr.. Pulsifer gave several
reasons why the architecture of
tho modorn pantaloon is faulty and
that this article ofapparel should be
supplanted by another more flow
Ing and graceful which might be at
tached to the coat and known as SUBJ
coat, or small-coat or petty-coat.
The undesirableness of modern
suspenders was seriously discussed
and it was thought that, If worn at
all, they should be worn so that the
buckles would show on the outside.
Shirts which open In the back were
universally condemned. The string
upon the drawers leg was declared
= relic Of barbarism which no man
Of character would submit to. The
length and breadth of beam of four
teen small boys captured upon the
street was taken as basis of sta
tistical information. Their toes
were also counted, and their aggre-
gate number found to be 139 Zone

average number of toes, 9.2l4 each
seventy toes were on right feet,

on sDress Reform" and gave sew.
eral reasons to show that the mod.
srn style Of dress Is faulty, the chief
being that the dress contracts the
Vital organs, is heavy and burden

Various styles of dress and under
clothing were discussed, the ladies
giving their personal experience.
By request, the waist measure of
the girls in one of the schools was
taken, with the following result:
Fourteen girls, age varying from 8
10 I years, average waist measure,
24.2i inches; thirty girls, average
age 8 years IL months, average of
waist, %. III inches. These children
will diminish instead of increasing
their waist measure when they are
grown, owing to the modern style
