Beauty in Dress.

Mr.. Haweis, in volume entitled ''The
Art of Beauty" makes the following
points with regard to beauty of dress:
'The reason that an ordinary low
neck with short sleeves looks worse in
black than in any other is because the
hard line round the bust and arms Is too
great contrast to the skin. A low neck
always lessons the height, and a dark
dress made thus lessons it still more, and
it strikes the artistic eye as cutting the
body in pieces, in this way. If you see
a fair person dressed in low dark dress
standing against light background
some way off, the effect will be that of
an empty dress hung up, the face, neck,
and arms being scarcely discernible.
"On the other hand, against dark
background, the head and bust will be
thrown up sharply, and the whole dress
and body will disappear. The effect,
common enough, is execrably bad. If
you must wear low-back bodice, let it
be cut square, giving the height of the
shoulders (or, better, with the angles
rounded, for corners are very trying,
and have plenty of white or pale gauze
or thin black net to soften the harsh line
between the skin and the dress. White
gauze or lace soften down the blackness
of the dress at the edge of the bodice,
and thin black stuff has an equally good
effect, as it shades the wilderness of the
skin into the dark color of the gown.
Only under these conditions does the
sudden contrast enhance, as some per-
sons suppose, the fairness Of the COM
plexion.
'Short women should never wear
double-skirts or tunics-they decrease
the height so much-unless, indeed, the
tunic is very short and the skirt very
long. So also do large, sprawling pat
terms used for trimmings; let these be
left to women tall enough to carry them
off. Neither let very little woman wear
her hair half way down her back; let
her lift it clean up as high as possible.
Large feet should never be cased in
kd--least of all, white kid slippers
kid reveals so clearly the form and move
nents of the feat, and stretches so easily
That few feet have chance in them.
Those who are very stout should
wear nothing but black; those who are
very thin should put little padding in
their gowns; and neither should be in
the least accollet. Perpendicular stripes
in dresses give hight and increase full
ness, and are therefore particularly SUIT
ed to very slight, small people, and par
| ticularly untitled for stout figures.

1t Vent Up.

There is q man in this city who once
lost 5000 through twist of the Eng
fish language. He was then resident
of California, and San Francisco was
wild with excitement over mines. The
"Blue Ledge" was then blooming.
Shares had gone to thirty times their
face value, and brokers reaped a golden
harvest. At length, almost within an
hour, "Blue Ledge" began to drop, and
it went down-or rather the shares did
over 200 per cent before there was g
breathing spell. At this crisis the New
YORKER went to broker and asked:
"What is your candid opinion about
Blue Ledger"
81 think it will go up" was the
prompt reply.
"When?"
"Well, within fortnight"
The would-be buyer knew of stocks
for sale, and before night his entire for
tune had been invested. Quotations re-
manned the same for two or three days,
and then "Blue Ledge" shares, SO each,
fell to ten per cent, of their face value.
The New Yorker rushed to the broker in
CONSERVATION, and gasped out:
Didn't you tell me that Blue Ledge
was sure to &c up?
81 did"
''And now-now -
"It's gone up, just as I predicted.

out its veins, and it was only question
of few days when it would go up"
'But, great Heavens! 1t has gone
down"
eyes: I understand. Yes, it has gone
up, and hundreds of people viii be
ruined"

Haunted by His Crime,

The following striking example Of the
state of a murderer's heart, with its
ceaseless memory and perpetual self-ac-
cusation, brings forcibly to mind the
words of Webster: "a vulture is de-
vouring it, and it can ask no human as
sistance or sympathy" The case is
that of Martin Battles, Of Charlotte, n.
Y, who twenty years ago shot and
killed Cornelius Lynch.
He was tried and convicted of murder
in the first degree, and sentenced to one
year in the Auburn penitentiary, and
then to be hanged. His case was
brought before the Court of Appeals.
The court decided that the act of the
Legislature was unconstitutional, and
Battles was set at liberty. He enlisted
in the Union army, and served through
the late war. He then returned. He
declared that he was constantly haunted
by the presence of the man he had killed,
and he was sorry thatthe sentence of the
law had not been carried out. He en-
deavored to have himself placed on trial
again, hoping that he would be recon
victed and hanged. He finally became
maniac, and was placed in the West
ern asylum for the insane. He is still
an inmate of that institution, and i'm

GLOOMY Thoughts.

Dull, depressing, lingy days produce
dispiriting reflections and gloomy
thoughts; and small wonder when We
remember that the mind is moi only a
motive but receptive organ. and that
all the impressions it receives from with
ont reach it through the media Of senses
which are directly dependent on the con-
ditions of light and atmosphere for their
action, and therefore Immediately infiu-
enced by the surrounding conditions. 1t
is a common-sense inference that, if the
impressions from without reach the
mind through imperfectly-acting organs
Of sense, and these impressions are in
themselves set in minor aesthetic key
of color, sourd anl general qualities.

BURNED TO DEATH.
FriGhtfuI Fate of Children Locked Up
i'm n Seminary at Scranton. Pa.


SCRANTON, Pa, Feb 2S.
Seventeen inmates of st. Patrick's Orphan
Asylum, of Hyde Park, comprising fourteen
boys and three girls, ranging in age from to
IL years, we're suffocated last night by an I'M
explained fire that broke out at 9 o'clock
The number of children under the care
of the Sisters was forty--eighteen boys
and twenty-five girls. The institution
is in charge of several Sisters Of 6har-
ity, and is situated at the corner of jackson
street and Lincoln avenue. 1t is four stories in
height. On the third floor are two dormito-
ries, separated by "a partition, one for the boys
and the other for the girls. The children were
taken to the third floor tonight by one Of the
Sisters, who assigned them to their respective
rooms. The Sister locked the door and started
for the lower floor. When about half
way down her attention was attracted
to smo e issuing from one of the rooms
1t was discovered that brisk fire was in
progress, and the Sister, alarmed for the safety
Of her charges, hurried back TO the girls dor
mitory. The inmates were frightened by the
smoke that was entering their room from
the lower floor, and rushed to the
landing. In q short time the Sister led
the way down stairs, and all tho girls fol-
lowed her. They were sent to place of
safety. The smoke was now pouring through
the hallway in dense volume The Sister
again started for the third floor to rescue the
boys, but she had gone only short distance
when she met strange man, who told her that
the boys had all been removed from tt
dormitory. She persisted that they were still
in their rooms, but the stranger asserted that
they were not. and quoted her fears By this
time the. tiremen had arrived The fire burned
Strongly on the second and third floors, and
streams were soon being thrown upon the
flames. Doubt being expressed about the
boys having escaped, the firemen worked toward
the dormitory. In short time they sue
ceeded in cleaning passage. The door of the
boys room was broken open. The surmises of
the doubling ones were found to be correct.
The children were found huddled together be-
meath their cots, all having been suffocated.
Two of them were slightly SCARED by the
flames, The calamity has caused excitement
such as has never been experienced in this
city. At the date of this dispatch q a. m the
streets are filled with people who visited the
scene of the horrible occurrence. The terrible
result has east gloom throughout the city
that is positively painful 1t cannot be ascer-
tanned tonight how the fire originated.
