The Baltimore American discovers
that Baltimore girls arc the prettiest
because of the climate and of the food
they eat. Ohio girls, it says, eat pork
and sauerkrout, Massachusetts girls eat
Goldfish balls, Virginia girls eat bacon and
greens, the Gulf states girls eat gumbo,
New Hampshire girls eat pie and dough-
nuts, and Kentucky girls eat blue grass
beef, and yet all these are prettier than the
girls of Europe. But the Baltimore
girls eat oysters, terrapin, canvasback
duck, bay mackerel and soft shell crabs,
all productive of beauty. Not only has
the Baltimore girl become beautiful, but
the canned oysters of Baltimore have
begun to make beautiful the girls of the
Mississippi; valley.

= There is deal of talk nbout repub.
!ican harmony-that the administration
is getting good start, with "amens"
from all the factions This may be true,
but if it is, there are q few suggestions to
to be offered which will not make it ap-
pear 30. The conduct of Vice President
Arthur is, to say the least, inexplica-
BILE. He keeps away from the white
house, makes no recommendations for
office, and is completely under Conk-
!!ing's thumb. Toward the retiring pres
ldent his conduct was simply outrageous.
He was invited to dine at the white
house, and excused himself on account
OF previous engagement. The etiquette
which prevails here is that no invitation
to dine with the president ia to be declin-
ed, no matter what embarrassments it
may create. On the day the new presi-
to lunch. He did 90 to the white house,
and with the president reviewed The
troops but he managed to slip away
before lunch was announced.
