LADIES' DEPARTMENT.
The Divided Skirt.

Viscountess Harberton is the inventor of the divided skirt, or semi-trousers, for women, her idea being to consult the convenience of women in their at- tire. As she says herself, the best means of doing this is to make dress subservient to the laws of physiology. Women have two limbs, but by tying both together in the senseless fashion of the day they practically reduce the number to one. They leave themselves two feet to shuffle about with, but do their best to disable these with high heels, pointed toes and that dreadful invention, patent leather. It is quite certain a revolution in dress of some kind is fast approaching.

President Arthur's Family,

A New York letter describes Mrs. Arthur, the deceased wife of the Presi- dent, and daughter of the late Captain
 Herndon, U. s. N., as having been re- lated to many of the leading old fami.
 lies of the South. She died suddenly
 eighteen months ago, while General Arthur was absent at Albany at the re- election of the Hon. Roscoe Conkling to the Senate. Her mother died in Paris shortly before her own death. She was highly accomplished, particu- larly in music, and charitable in the exercise of her great gift in aiding be- nevolent local enterprises. She left 8 son named Alan and 8 bright Saxon haired daughter, who is at school in Albany and residing at the home of her amt, Mrs. McElroy, wife of brother of the managing editor of the Albany Euesai'ag Journal. As Miss Herndon Mrs. Arthur was prominent socially at the national capital in the last gen. eration, and her charming manners and brilliant conversation are no doubt re- membered by many of the older mem bers of Washington society now living. A sentiment toward her dear memory has led the President to St. Johns church as a worshiper, the same where she, with her parents, was a communi- cant. Captain Herndon was ieuten- ant in the United States navy, detailed to the command of the Central America, which foundered in 6 hurricane off Cape Hatterax, September 12, 1857. Herndon did all that skill and seaman ship and gallantry could accomplish, but in vain. Finding the ship must go down, he went below, dressed himself in full uniform, took his station on the starboard wheel-house, waiting for the final moment, and went down uncov- cred, leaving an example of rare gallantry and heroism.

 HdRs Journal QT Hedlth, referring to Consumption, makes the following important statement:
 "Consumption usually begins with slight, dry cough in the morning. then, on going to bed getting more and more frequent, with and more phlegm increasing debility, thinness of fesh short ness of breath. and quickness of pulse In fatal cases it's average course is about two years hence the importance of arresting the disease at early stage as possible, and the rational for this purpose the greater the chance of success The disease is owing to irritation com mencing in the throat and extending to the lungs that their action is interfered with and the blood does not receive sufficient oxygen to purify it. The most marked sign of lung disease is cancellation; and the most positive indication of returning health is increase in weight
 So speaks HdlP8 Journal or HeoEth, and may add that in desperate cases, and in fact fn all of Consumption, or troubles of the throat and lungs, immediate relief may be obtained and a permanent cure effected by the use of. Dr. Vim. Halls Balsam for the Lungs, medicine known for more than th1rty-fve years unfailing remedy for coughs, colds, bronchitis and all pulmonary and pectoral diseases.

WACO, December 21.-As the question
of whether Saturday, December 81, or

New Years callers remains unsettled

that the sooner some decision is reached
the better it will be. Although there
are those who prefer Satur-
day because they will have
Sunday to rest after the excitement of
the previous day and with some per-
/ haps the night too. Your correspon-
dent, who has been caller for four con-
secutive years, finds the majority of the
gentlemen in favor of Monday, and those
young ladies who have spoken at all are
in favor of that day. Saturday has al
ways been considered II poor day for
anything of social or public nature,
and merchants, statesmen and Others will
be 50 absorbed in the heavy business
| they will have on that day that calling

We on the day that We should be
weeping over the grave Of the old year
to commence rejoicing over the birth of
the new one? We should not keep the
ladies in suspense but decide ON what
LAY calls will be made. As there is no
objection to Monday and many to Satur-
lay, we mildly suggest, though We DO not
urge, that Monday be proclaimed as the
proper day and the list of calls and those
who receive he considered to apply to
that day only. CALLER.
