WOMEN IN WYOMING.

In answer to former article relative
to the dearth of women here, we are
now receiving(says Bill Nye, III his
Boomerang Of Wyom'ng) some two to
five letters per day from all classes and
styles ofyoung, middle-aged and oldwo
men, who desire TO come to Wyoming.
Some of them would like to come here
to work and obtain an honest livelihood,
and some of them cone here and de-
sire to marry cattle kings. A recent let
ter from Michigan. written in lead pen
Gil, and evidently during hours when
the writer should have been learning
her geography lesson: is very enthusiast
tic over the prospect of coming out
here where one girl can nave
a lover for every day in the week. She
signs herself Rosalinde, with small r,
and adds.in postscript that she means
business" Yes Rosalinde, that's what
we are afraid of. We had kind of
a vague fear that you meant business,
so we did MT reply to your letter.
Wyoming already has women enough
who write with lead pencil. We are
also pretty well supplied with poor spell
ers, and we do not desire to ransack
Michigan for affectionate but saphead-
ed girls. Stop in Michigan, Rosalinde.
until we write to you, and one of these
days when you have been another eigh!
OF nine times. and as you stand in the
golden haze Of the backyard, hanging
out damp shirts on an uncertain line,
while your ripe and dewy mouth is
stretched across Eastwood clothespln.
you will thank us for this advice.
Do not despair, Rosalinde. Some day
a man. with great, warm, manly heart
and pair ofred steers, will see you and
ne will take you in his strong arms and
protect you from the Michigan climate
just as devotedly as any Of our people
here can. We do not wish to be misun
derstood in this matter. 1t is not as a
lover that we have said SO much on the
girl question, but in the domestic aid
department, and when we get long
letter from a young girl who eats slate
pencils and reads Ouida behind her
atlas, we feel like going over there to
Michigan with trunk strap and doing
little missionary work.-Enlhange.

FANCY WORK AND HOUSE DEC
ORATIONS.

VALE PocKET.-Get a common fan,
one that spreads, and take out the wire
that holds the sticks together at the
handle. Spread it out and fasten the
two end ones together. Gather the
sticks at the bottom and bind with a
wire, then tie ribbon of some bright
color over this and make bow with
ends. Also make a handle ofthe same,
fastening it at each side of the pocket
with a small bow. The effect of the
whole is very pretty.
FANCY BAsKErs.--Tne following de-
scription of trimmed baskets may give
an idea to some of our household. The
common rush baskets which can be
bought for few cents are just the
things for this purpose.
The outer covering is of black satin.
It is put on full round the edge, and
has two ''guaglngs" or three, accord.
ing to the horizontal rush bars running
round the baskets in and out. The
satin is carried down, and neatly fasten-
ed off underneath the basket. The lin
ing is of quilted satin, red, yellow, pink.

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY.
BY MRS. NJ. woLvERToN.


vhy some valiant sister" did not
come to the rescue of those who are
compelled to practice close economy,
and give some information in regard
to making that old dress last another
season, and how to use up the rem
nants in some way that will be useful,
economical, pretty, and not "botched
up" arrangement that is a perpetual
source of annoyance to cultivated
taste.
There is no need 10 dress expensive
ly. if you find you cannot afford it; and
by the exercise of taste. forethought,
and good judgement you may dress
well enough, and still not make too
deep inroads upon papa's purse.
Some say, always get the very best"
but l will modify it by saying "get a
good smooth, serviceable article. Do
not get an imitation Of anything. 1t is
the dearest in the end while really
good article that is just what 1t pre-
tends to be, will really wear longer
and give better satisfaction while in
service, than the most expensive. If
one wears very costly dress, they are
in continual dread for fear something
will happen to ruin the beauty OF the
fabric, and such goods, being of such
extravagantly fine quality are more
easily injured than cheaper and more
serviceable grade.
OF late, have noticed that it has
become fashionable for some writers to
decry the practice Of piecing bed
quilts. If they fail to do this, what
will they do with their scraps of calico,
muslin, merino, cashmere, silks, vel
vets, etc., that necessarily accumulate
inevery family. Of course every care.
full housekeeper has a rag-bag, but an
economical woman will not consign
any thing to it, that can be made USE
full in other directions. If one can
afford no, to use them, better give
them away. 1 do not blame any one
who has plenty of money to buy what
they need. for buying their bed-clothes
already made and they should occupy
the time so saved, in trying to make
everyone around them happy and con-
tented. Visit their friends, and enter
tain them in return, attend to the sick.
the sorrowful and the poor, that are to
be found in every neighborhood, and
you will have the sweet satisfaction of
having been the means of tightening
the heavy burdens of some weary fel-
low being, whose days see too little of
happiness or cOntentmeEt.
But there are housekeepers who can't
afford to either give or throw away. To
these would say, do not be ashamed
to piece them up, or make them into
anything YOUR tastes and necessities
dictate. do not mind the fashion set
by your richer and more stylish neigh
bors. but be a law unto your OWL
purse. 1t is the most foolish of all
foolishness, to try to do as Mrs. So
and.so, does, when she has hundred
dollars to spend where you have but
one.
There is too little real independence
of thought. feeling, or conduct /: and
those who do contrive to let common
sense rule; are in the end the happiest.

that it ought not to be enforced. That is moi
this case. At the most, what is presented
here raises doubt as to whether the judy
ment ought not to have been less than it was.
The court can see that the evidence if pre-
scented in the Court below would have been
disputed, at least by the present defendant,
and it might not have been believed by the
Jury.
We cannot say, in the light Of this new
evidence, that the Judgment below was against
good conscience or that it ought to be modi-
fed or changed in any respect. That there is
chance that it might have been so changed
is no ground for relief in this Court against a
Judgment at law, even though it were posi-
bic that we should think that if the motion in
the Supreme Court had been made in time, it
ought to have secured a new trial.
A motion for new trial on the ground Of
newly discovered evidence, In the Supreme
Court, before final judgment, entered, and a bill
in equity after final judgment, TO attach it, for
similar reason, are to be very differently
treated. In the latter case the Court Of Equity
must deem it conclusiTely shown that in
justice has been done, otherwise the judgment
must not be disturbed
No such case is made by the bill Of CON-
plant, and the demurrer must be sustained,
and judgment absolute upon it be directed for
the defendant.
But on further consideration the Court are
now Of the opinion that the plea in bar is not
well made.
