a lecturer, "who hasn't tasted food for
thirty years" GLOW do you know
he hasn't?" asked an auditor. "Be.
cause tobacco killed him in 1885,"
was the reply.
The Baltimore papers boast that
their city is preparing to become
the great cattle market Of the sea-
board, receiving live stock from ALI
parts Of the country, not only for
shipment to Europe, but for delivery
at the livestock markets of Eastern
cities" Last year the receipts were
74S,000 head, selling in Baltimore
for nearly s10,000,00G A portion
Of the aggregate was Western cattle,
but the large portion came from the
Virginias, Kentucky and Tennessee.
II is claimed in Baltimore that che
best fat cattle in the United States
come from Mooretield valley in West
Virginia" and that Western cattle
can be fed and fattencd for market
to greater advantage in the Southern
States than in Illinois and Ohio.

The Woman Of the Future.

The Long Branch correspondent of the AL
tany Journal writes: There are two facts which
stilke one with immense force this season on
frst arriving at the most popular OF our water
i!g places, and these are: First, the number OF
TALL well. grown young women that tie present
aye has developed; and second, the size Of hats
hey wear. Usually they are fair as well as
large, AID they look like revival of the race Of
scandinavian goddesses-as II all at once our
earth were being peopled again by mighty
BrunSbelGS and lovely S1durthaS instead of the
SLIM saiow type We have been accustomed to
as ociate with the born American.
The immense hats, which have wide fndented
or turned up brins enhance this blooming
style OF beauty, and renders Ii all the more
conspicuous a little more of dignity, little
more OF repose, and they could quite realize the
tan and most divinely fair But their too
abrupt movements land the loud talking-the
silly talking and ''tftter1ng," In which nearly
all the girls indulge, destroy the Illusion. These
lilies; they are the representatives OF the present
and particularly Of the incoming generation of
the women OF America, and as such are to
be congratulated on being a great i'm
6e{d; p1SSscal on those that have
speaks well for what improved methods-more
air better and more nutritious food, and stronger
more intelligent aims-are doing for them. No
more slate pencils, no more theories In regard
to food, no more moonlight reverfes
Is the most practical, the most unromantic OF
mortals, and her dinner is as important a fact
to her as it is to an alderman on Lord Mayors
day. She is not ashamed to eat, and she shows
the results OF good living and exercise, both OF
mind and body. From such young women as
these In the present day 1t is easy to tell what
the women OF the future will be; perfect realiza-
items OF the ideals OF the poets and the roman
creatures, capable of ruling the k1ngd that is
preparing for them.

Pins and a Woman,s Dress.
[ Burlington Hawkeye.


Our wife wants a new Dress After two Or
1nree or half dozen stores have been ransacke1
1Or the goods the dreSSmaker Is sought out The
matter or measurement is tedious. and then tha
matter OF fitting is one Of numerous and re-
peated Trials. Finally the dress is finished and
sent home. Then it is sent back to be taken I'm
here and let out there. and at last, after the
customer has been fitted more times for that
one dress than her husband has been measured
In three or four years the dress comes home
Ior tne last time and is pronounced by the
Wearer her friends and the dressmaker as beau
tiful and perfect Iii, and it is finished
Beautiful Ii certainly Is. far more beautiful
IMAM anything her husband ever wears. ColOrs
and material, style, blending shades and con-
trast1ng bits OF color, are all In the perfection
But, it isn't finished. When 1t is completed as
far as the skill OF the dressmaker can finish il,
and II Is put on, II has TO be pinned somewhere:
sometimes In two or three. often In half dozen
aces. 1t always requires q pin. Leave out
me PIN and the dress is all awry somewhere.
On all this broad continent there is not one
American woman who can dress so as to make
any kind OF an appearance In good society
without pins
Now, suppose cur tailor should send our suit
home and when we had put on the coat we had
to pin 1t at the neck? Or suppose there was no
suspender buttons aft, and We had to use pins
there? suppose he made our shirts So that we
would have to pin on the collar how long would
such shirt or such a suit OF clothes stay In the
house? VINO would be responsible for the Ian
No tailor would dare to so tempt the wrath OF
an Independent man. But woinan-alas, she
patiently pins on the dress that she paid some
one $50 or $40 to make, and doesn't think any
thing about It, We will not pursue this painful
subject. Let the women of America take it up
and think about it and learn, in the noble indie
pendence or Womanhood, TO make their clothes
before they put them on.
