The Manicure.

Our ladies, who are wont to extol the
superior advantages of European cul-
ture, says the Boston Herald, are just
now congratulating themselves upon
the advent here of the mistress of the
peculiar devices of the toilet known as
the manicure's art. To visit manicure
is, we are told, embraced in the regular
order of things, followed by the ladies
of all the prominent cities. Consequent
ly, it can scarcely be wondered at that
the followers of fashion here should
have welcomed the missionary who
comes to us, if for no other reason than
to place them on a plane with their New
York sisters, who have thus far claimed
the only practitioner of this kind the
country affords. A naturally fine hand
is made more beautiful by care, ard a
hand not so greatly favored is much inn
proved, without doubt, by extra atten-
ton A visit to the manicure results in
II treatment merely preparatory. The

in lukewarm solution. The flesh about

The Great Anniversary.

One of the lads attending the Glass
School was yesterday noticed wearing a
very detected look as he lounged around
the entrance at recess, and a passing ac-
quaintance halted and inquired if he
was ill.
"Noap," was the solemn reply.
"But you look sad and down-hearted.
Is your teacher crossp'
"Noap."
"Well, maybe you are studying too
much," persisted the gentleman.
"Maybe hain't," was the indignant
reply. "The whole trouble is with that
George Washington, over which every
body makes such fuss. His birthday
is Saturday. That's our holiday, any
how, and us boys won't make cent out
of the thing. Now, why wasn't he born
so the celebration would come on FRI
day or Monday?"
"Well, don't know" was the reply.
"Nor I, either, but l tell you what
we're going to do. Wen have meet
ing here this noon and we'll pass a vote
that George Washington was an old
snide, and that we'll cnt his picture out
of our histories. Well fix him, and you
lust remember. "-DetroH Free Press.

The Mules Opportunity.

There can't be many down town folks
who have not noticed that little, dried
up, wicked-faced mule which draws a
ten-cent express wagon around the
streets. Attention is generally divided
between the mule and the driver, who
begins pounding him at daylight and
never stops while there is a prospect of
hitting a spot never discovered before.
The mule cares just about as much for
the blow of club or the prod of a
twelve-ounce tack as lion would for
the buzz of H., and if he was ever
beaten into a faster gait than two miles
an hour no living man can remember it.
Yesterday morning, in turning into
Congress Street from Griswold, the
driver missed his blow and fell forward
upon the beast and then slid down be-
hind him, with his feet and body some
how held fast by the shafts and wagon
box. The man realized his peril like a
flash, his head being close to the mules
heels, but he did not utter a shout. As
pedestrians gathered around he was say
ing to the mule:
"Now's your chance, old Sisyjhus!
For two long years I've pounded you up
and down and back and forth till you
couldn't rest. Now you've got me in a
box, go ahead with your kicking, old
misery-I wouldn't beg if I'm killed for
it! I'm glad 1 pounded you! I've moth
ing to take back! Kick away and be
burned to you, because if you don't
there won't be any letting up on my
part!''
The mule ought to have kicked, but
he didn't. He stood there as mild as a
stick of candy until the man was extri-
Gated from his dangerous position, and
then as the blows fell upon him in a
perfect tornado he surged forward at the
old familiar pace, eyes half closed and
ears tapping like the jibs of a becalmed
schooner in midocean.-DetroI Free

Interesting Statistics.

The records of marriage offer some
curious columns. Statistics are contin-
ually forcing upon our notice a fixed
percentage of repentant old bachelors !;
also of young bachelors who marry wild
ows; also of young. women who marry
old men, and widows who renew their
vows; while the ratio of second, third
and fourth marriages is very constant.
Indeed, it is most profanely come to
pass that, just as the stars are nothing
but points of vast triangles and dia-
grams to cold blooded astronomer, so
every unmarried woman stands as an
algebraic symbol TO the eye of the social
mathematician; if she is 20 years old,
representing three-quarters of likeli-
hood that she will change her name; if
%, standing for one quarter of the same
possibility; if 80, reduced to fraction
of one divided by 10; and then decreas
ing in a geometri al r&tio which it would
hardly be polite to put into figures here.
On the contrary, man of 25 repre-
sents the fraction one-half as to the
probabilities of marriage, which is so
vulgar fraction that most young men
of that period strive ardently to ami
hilate it by finding the other and better
half which restores their integrity, sub
stance and show Erchange.

Faint Heart.

She stood before him, tall and fair
And gracious, on that summers day,
With June's first roses in her nair.
And on her cheek the bloom of May.
But rosy cheek, and dimpled chin,
And raven lashes dropping low,
Conceal the answer he would win;
1t might be Yes; would it be No?
All, II 'twere Moths throbbing heart
stood fairly still with sudden pain;
And If 'twere,Yes, the world so wide
His deep content could scarce contain.
So wondroGs fair how could she stoop
To favor such a one as he?
All, sweet suspense that still leaves hope
All, pain of sad uncertainty,
He held her hand so white and small,
And moved to press it with his lips,
But changed his mind and let it fail,
With chillest touch of finger tips,
And took the seat she offered him
Upon the sofa by her side,
Nor made the space between them less,
Which seemed so narrow, yet so wide.
Then gazing on the perfect face,
The dimpled mouth, the serious eyes,
And drinking in with eager ears
The music of her low replies,
He let the bright hours drift away,
Nor told the secret of his heart,
But when the shadows heightened lay,
Rose, all reluctant, to depart
And stammered forth, with blushing cheek
An eager. timorous request.
That she. for old acquaintance sake,
Would grant the rosebud from her breas
She gave it him, with downcast eyes,
And watched him leave her, with a sigh.
So good" she said. $50 true so wise;

the nails is thus softened, and is then
skillfully raised from the nail and cut
close with a pair of circular fiesh-cut-
tiers. The nails are then covered with
deep rose-tinted pomade, which,
though washed gently off in minute or
two, leaves its blush behind. This
is succeeded by grayish
powder, which, in turn, is rub
bed off lightly and swiftly by buffer
or wash leather pad, giving fine pol
ish to the nail. Lastly, the nail tips are
filed into the pointed or round shape,
according to individual fancy. The
principal errors to be avoided, says the
manicure, in the care of the nails is the
use of the knife or scissors in either
cleaning or cutting. The nails should
never be cut, but always filed, and new
err cleaned except with something hard
and smooth, like ivory, which can not
erase the protective lining of the nail
Of course, the nails should not be bitten
scarcely any one addicted to this nerv.
Gus and vulgar habit needs to be told
this. They should also be guarded
against bruises, which are the cause o.
the unsightly white spots; neither should
the flesh about the nails be cut by one'
self, as very sore fingers may be caused
by carelessness in this particular. Thu
nails in prime condition should be curv

THE biggest boy in the school at Tat
tell, Md, disobeyed the mistress, who
attempted to punish him. He knocked
her down and went home. His father
returned with him to the school, put a
whip into the teachers hands, and told
her to chastise him all she wanted to.
She thought at first that she would de-
cline the privilege, and trust to the eff
feet of her forbearance for the boys ref
ormation; but she changed her mind,
and piled the whip until she tainted from

LOSS OR GAIN ?

An old gentleman, leaning forward
with his hands clasped over a gold
headed cane, was seated in a summer
house situated upon the grounds of a
hotel at fashionable watering-place
He was in a corner hidden by dropping
vines, and his face expressed deep and
apparently painful thought. The re-
frain of his sad musing was "Only one
person in the whole world to love me,
and shall lose even that love now!"
On the other side of the summer
house, divided from the side the old
gentleman occupied by rustic parti-
ton, two ladies, young and fair, rustled
in, and taking out some fancy work set
tied down for q chat.
One was tall and dressed in pretty
costume that was at once youthful and
matronly; the other was petite, blonde,
and not more than IS. Mrs. CORTLAND

me you are making splendid match. -
"Did she? think so, Blanche NAL
colin is so noble and good, and a true

"But your aunt tells me he is the ia
vorite nephew of the great merchant,
Hubert Bates, whose wealth is some
thing enormous. You have only to help
him play his cards well and he will
probably be heir to a magnificent for
tune. But what ais youP You look as

." 1 think Aunt Mary has been misin-
formed; that is all.''
"Then he is not Mr.. Bates's nephewPr
az never heard him speak of rich
uncle, and 1 am quite sure he has no
hope of inheriting money. He has a
good salary, and my little fortune will
furnish small house; SO we can make
a comfortable, and, hope, a happy
home"
"Did he never speak to you of his
uncle?''
Not of q rich uncle. He has told
me of lame uncle, his mothers broth
er, who has been very kind to him,
given him his education and start in
the world. He always talks of him with
The deepest love and PITY

"He suffers tortures from the effects
of fall that has famed him for life,
and often causes him weeks of agoniz-
ing pain. Malcolm tell me with tears
in his eyes of his fear of losing this
