Bernhardt seems to have started a boom
for thin girls in New York, and they are
now the popular kind. FASHIONS In girls
change somewhat as the fashions in every
thing else 1t is very awkward that it is so,
and has tendency to discourage marriage
A man naturally hesitates to get married
when he can't be certain from one week to
another what the latest conceit in girls is
The fashion may change any minute, and it
wouldn't be at all desirable for any man to
find himself with a wife on his hands who is
out of style because she is thin, or because
she is not thin, or something of that sort
The thin girl boom is an entirely new freak
of fashion, but it can not be overlooked that
the distinguished woman who has set this
fashion is not at all thin in some respects
Philadelphia Times.
She was declaiming "The Launching of

A Touching Story.

One rarely meets with more touching
romance than is found in the following
story which comes from Wales: A number
of years ago some miners in exploring an
old pit that had long been closed, found the
body of young man dressed in fashion
long out of date The peculiar action of
the air of the mine was such to
preserve the body so perfectly that the body
appeared asleep rather than dead. The
miners were puzzled at the circumstance; no
one in the District had been missed within
their remembrance, and at last it was re-
solved to bring the oldest inhabitant an old
lady long past her eightieth year, who had
lived single in the village the whole of her
life. On being brought into the presence Of
the body strange scene occurred; the old
lady fell on the corpse, kissed it and adj
dressed it by every term of loving endear-
ment spoken in the language of
bygone generations. He was her only
love; she had waited for him during her
long life; she knew he had not forsaken her
The old lady and the young man had been
betrothed sixty years before. The lover
had disappeared mysteriOusly, and she had
kept faithful during the long interval. Time
had stood still with the dead man, but had
left its mark on the living woman. The
miners who were present were a rough set
but very gently and with fearful eyes they
removed the old lady to her house, and that
night her faithful spirit rejoined that of her
long-lost lover"

CONCERNING WOMEN.

1t is regarded as "a great event for Italy
that Signora Anna Maria Mozzeni has adj
dressed a public meeting at Rome, advo-
eating woman suffrage.
The newest Mrs. Rothschild did not wear
a single jewel when she stood up to be
married. All the world knew she had
plenty of gems. so there was no use in both
ering with them.-Philadelphia News.
The wife of the historian Grote must have
been an extraordinary woman. She rode
without saddle; she was not afraid to put
off in boat without a man; and she was
plucky enough to marry her lover without
permission, and return home without say
ing word about it. Sydney Smith described
this lady and her lord in his happy fashion .
II do like them both so much! for he is
lady-like, and she is perfect gentleman"
Ought a woman of sixty TO marry? Ger
taInly, if she has money enough. A huS-
band is an expensive luxury, to be sure, and
no woman should take one recklessly. So
long as she is young and able-bodied, and
can earn sufficient to support two, the risk
isn't so great; but a woman of sixty is too
old for right down hard work. and must
have capital or remain single. This idea of
marrying a man and then leaving him to
starve isn't Christian, to say the least of it

Forever the sun Is pouring its gold
On hundred worlds that beg and borrow;
His warmth he squanders on SUBMITS cold,
His wealth on the homes of want and sorrow.
ID withhold his largess of precious light
Is to bury himself In eternal night.
To give =
Is to live.
The flower shines not for itself at ali
Its JOY is the JOY IL freely diffuSes;
OF beauty and balm IL is prodigal.
And il lives in the light IL freely loses,
No choice for the rose but glory or DOM,
To exhste or smother, TO wither or bloom.
To deny

The seas lend silvery rays to the Land.
The land its sapphire streams to the ocean:
The heart sends blood 70 the brain Of command
The brain TO the heart Its lightning motion;
And over and over we yield our breath,
Till the mirror is dry and images death.
To live
Is togive.
He is dead whose hand is not open wide
To help the need of human brother:
He doubles the length of his lifelong ride
Who gives his fortunate place to another;
And a thousand million lives are his
Who carries the world in his sympathies-

A Kansas Woman Lawyer.

Paola (kaS) Cor. Kansas City Times.
Miss Flora Torrey Wagstaff step-daughter
of Judge w. r. Wagstatf of this city, was
admitted to the Bar of this County and
sworn to faithfully discharge the duties of
an attorney-at-law. The occasion attracted
considerable attention, and many visitors
out of curiosity as well as friendly interest
W ere present during the examination. The
examination was conducted in open Court
by a Committee of three, all very devoted
and ardent supporters of 1.-The majesty of
the law" and certainly, if ceremony and
austerity is the pleasure of law, its
majesty was not offended in this in
stance, for those dignifed Committeeman
stood at the post of duty and besieged their
fair would-be sister-in-law for a day and a
half with all kinds of quizzes, qurries, 'and
technicalities known in legal catechiSm.
However, the young lady seemed not the
least bit embarrassed or discouraged by the
arduous task assigned her, and disposed OF
it with apparently as much relish, and as
completely as though it had been a chapter
of Endymion. His Honor, Judge Hiram
Stevens, and the Committee complimented
her very highly for the high degree of pro-
ficiency she had displayed in legal lore.
Miss Wagstaff is a handsome blonde, very
ladylike and refined in manner, a bright
scholar, and highly accomplished in music
and painting She has read law about two
wears, and attended the st. Louis Law School
for one year. She being the first lady candi-
date in this County and probably the second
in the State, considerable interest was mani
tested in the extent of her examination.

The Lazy Ant.

The Lazy Ant.
A brown ant, il is said
Took it into his head
That be wanted an easier life;
So he vowed that all work
HencefOrth he would shirk.
To the grief of his poor little vile.
His 'sistars and Cousins
And ants by the dozens"
Reconstructed with him, until
In wild it of spite
He left them outright,
And clambered up out OF the hill
And day after day
He did nothing but play;
And when he grew tired, he would climb
And rock, lazy fellow,
In dandelion yellow,
And thus passed the bright summer time.
He found plenty to eat
Dainty crumbs, seeds and meat,
And never q thought did he give,
Not a fig did he care,
How, by and by, he should fare,
Where, or how, in the cold winter live.
His brothers and sisters
Worked their small feet to blisters.
Their bodies to mere skin and bone;
Many a crumb and dead fly,
For the bleak by and by,
Had they stored ere the summer was gone
But when autumn winds blew.
Starved and chilled through and through
Oh, piteously then did he cry!
But they SAID Lazy anti

Have bit of our winters supply"
Then they closed up the door
Till the winter was DER,
Andleft him, still pleading. outside:
So this poor little sinner
Grew colder and thinner
Each day, till he shriveled and died.

six months after happy marriage, on being
asked if she was much troubled with cold
feet, simpered hesitatingly, and with ingen-

1t has been decided by some of the ultra

A little fve-yesr-old boy astonished his
