GOSSIP FOR THE LADIES.

Sna0OW LOVef1s
For your sovereign sake, my friend,
AL my lovers are eetranged,
Shadow-lovers without end;
But last night they were avenged.
In the middIe Of HE hight
0ns By one I saw them rise;
Passing in the ghostly light,
Silent, with sYerted eyes.
First, my master from the scuth
Wit tie iaurels round his brow,
And the bitter-smiling mouth,
left me-without smiling now.
Then came one long used to rule
All was, or did, or had
Plato, that read at school
Till my playfnatss esllsd me msds
Maiden saints as pure as Pearls,
beautiful; divine. austere:
Saester-yeicad Eolian girls ~
Left their friend Of many year.
But, my earliest friend and best,
My Beethoven, this was hard
You should leave me with the rest,
Pass without one last regard.
For all went and left me there,
Signing ss they passed me by;
Az; How sad their voices wersl
/ shall hear them when die.
Fare-thee-weH," they said, eve go
Scorned as shades and dreams. Alden .
Love thine earthly friend, but know
Shadows still thou dost pursue"

Names Of Countries.

The following countries, it is said,
we're originally named by the Ph@ni-
clans, the greatest commercial people In
the world. The names, in the Fhoni-
clan language, signified something char
teristic of the places which they desig-
nate.
Europe signifies a country of white
complexion; so named because the in
habitants were of a lighter complexion
than those of Asia and Africa.
Asia signifies between, or in the mid
die, from the fact that the geographers
placed it between Europe and Africa.
Africa signifies the land of corn, or
ears. It was celebrated for it's abundance
of corn, and all sorts of grain.
Siberia signifies thirsty or dry-very
characteristic.
Spain, country OF rabbits or COMES
It was once so infested with these AMI
mails that it sued Augustus for an army
to destroy them.
Italy, country of pitch, from its
yielding great quantities of black pitch.
Calabria, also, for the same reason.
Gaul, modern France, signifies yellow
haired, as yellow hair characterized its
inhabitants.
The English Of Caledonia is high
hill. This. was rugged, mountainous
province in Scotland.
Hibernia is utmost, or last habitation;
for beyond this, westward, the Phoeni-
clans never extended their voyages.
Britain, the country of tin, great
quantities being found on it and ada
cent islands. The Greeks called it AL
| bion, which signifies in the Phmuician
tongue either white or high mountains,
from the whiteness of its shores, or the
high rocks on the Western coast
Corsica signifies a woody place.

which it resembles.

The question of how to employ the
women of New York city is awakening
attention. There is said to be one law
yer among the females, number of
physicians, several are reporters on news
papers, critics end edittesaea. The
women rather lead in the actors profess
sion. Decorative art is employing them
in wood-carving, design-drawing, sculp-
ture, china-painting, pottery, tapestry
making, embroidery, crayon-drawing,
painting photographs, book-canvassing,
bird-fanciering, draining, etc. It is
said that $4,000 women here support
themselves in various light artisan pur-
suits and in shops.-Nes6 York letter.

Grass Bouquet,

Perhaps you think you know how to
make these, but few people make them
with any taste, and want to tell you
how. Fill your vase to the top with
clean, fine sand; take your grasses one
by one, stand them up in the sand,
keeping each one distinct from its neigh
Dor, and using very few. Then you
will have light and graceful affair, in
stead of a clumsy bunch which hides al
the delicate beauty of the grasses, and
reminds one of load Of hay. 4 fern or
two, but no more, adds to its beauty,
and q spray of autumn leaves, half hid
den among the grasses, gives it color.
One Of the prettiest grass bouquets lever
saw had no more than dozen delicate
grass stems. 1t looked Like a fairy
thing.

Women i'm France.

A French writer notices the increasing
political and social role which women
play in modern France. In lawsuits,
commercial and financial operations, be-
hind the counter, and at the cashiers
desk, in the theaters, and in the restau-
rants, you to-day see the activity and
feel the influence of women. Men make
the beds and wax the floors. In the
middle-class women are eager for gain,
ready to go into court, adventurous in
financial schemes. They treat about a
lease with you, attend stockholders
meetings, and turn to the money -market
column of their paper almost before they
read the feuilleton. French women
won't yield an inch, they won't make a
concession, they will be in turn solicit
tors, lawyers and sherifs. On the eve
of the Franco-German war Theirs went
to the salon of Nine. Drouyn de Lhuys
and said to her, "You are woman
Women are thought to have great weight
in this Government. / leg you to APP
pease this war. We are not ready for it. -"

Instead of saying that there is an ex-
cess Of 10000 women in Massachusetts,,
we shall be able to reason more clearly
if we simply say that there are 10000
unmarried women in that interesting
State. If the facts are stated in this
way, we at once see that, instead of
troubling ourselves about over-produc-
ton, we should merely ask, "Why are
these women unmarried ?" The an
swer is not difficult to find. These
women are unmarried because they are
of a pattern which has of late years gone
out of fashion. About the same time
that the gray trousers of England drove
cut the lack broadcloth trousers,
which, in connection with the black
satin waistcoat and black dress-coat,
formerly constituted the walking cos
tune of the American citizen, there was
introduced the plump English style Of
girl. The latter soon became enormous
ly popular, and the bony and specialized
maidens of Massachusetts became drug
in the market. 1t was still generally
conceded that the Massachusetts girl
knew more about Emerson's philosophy
and Alcott's Orphic utterances than did
their plumper rival, but the merits Of
the former were unable to awaken any
enthusiasm. The Boston poetical young
man no longer wrote sonnets expressing
the emotions of his heart on hearing the
bones of his beloved rattle as she ran to
greet him at the gate, and the Boston
youth of fashion no longer proposed al
public dinners the once-familiar toast,
Beauty and bones" in honor of the
spare sex. In fact, spare and angular
girls went entirely out of fashion, and
Massachusetts men went outside the
boundaries of New England when they
sought for wives.
