The Hare and the Fish.

EAe Hare ana the EIShs
The Hare and the Fish, having borrowed to-
bacco Of each other for several months. and
agreeing perfectly well on politics. set out to
make a Journey together and see the sights oil
the world. They had not proceeded many miles
when Wolf was discovered in pursuit. The
Hare at once started Off at the top of his speed
but the Fish called out:
'DO not leave me thus-I cannot rum"
ga Fish who cannot run has no business to
make a Journey" replied the Hare. and away he
flew to save his bacon.
The Fish hurried after as fast as possible. and
both found themselves on the bank of river
while the Wolf was yet a furlong away. The
Fish at once rolled into the water and darted
away. but the Hare shouted after him:
do not leave me- cannot swim!"
"a Hare who cannot swim has 10 business to
make journey" and he sailed away and left
the Hare to be eaten on the half shell.
An Owl who had overheard the affair from his
perch in a persimmon tree drew down his left
eye and softly said
''You don't know Man until you have tray
elled with him. "-Dttrnn Free Press.

explained You take hair-pin bend it. and

tie across the bridge of the nese and then you
apply several coatings of paint to it. Besides
the iudcrous appearance of such nose, the
snuffling it would make in speaking would have
the happiest Of effects. The teeth can be made

Since the production of l. ASsOninloir drunken

clearly defines. 1t is satisfactory to know that

are to be drawn slightly upward by two small

from the Leadyue Chronicle.
That there is at least sufficient latent heat in
| the snow to prevent death from freezing while
entirely surrounded by it. Frank White, of this
city, who returned day or two ago from long
trip in the indian country, is willing to testify
In the course of his homewari journey Mr.
White had al experience which all the mineral
wealth of Leaiville could not tempt him to re-
peat. 1t was on the Grand river where the
snow had recently fallen to great depth The
weather was somewhat murky when he started
| to return, but he relied upon tolerably good
prairie and that unknown quantity termed good
| luck to get back before the snow had fallen in
any great quantities. In both of these he was
sadly deceived as the freezing fakes which be-
gan to fall on the second day out soon obter-
| ated everything save the most bold and readily
recognized landmarks. On the fourth day he
| was lost in the storm and at last found shelter
in little clump Of cottonwood trees, the thick
ness of whose branches in a measure protected
| the ground. The night had turned bitterly cold,
and to his dismay he found that in his tramp his
match-sate had fallen fron, his pocket and was
| not to be found. For an instant it seemed as if
nothing but a frozen death awaited him. for he
/ knew we'll to spend the night where he stood or
even to tarry there motioness any further length
of time would surely be fatal. Already the col
| 0red lights that are sure forerunner Of death
| by freezing began to flicker beyond his eyes and
! he felt that he must take desperate chances for
existence. 1t was then that it occurred to him
that he had read somewhere of the latent heat
in the snow. and the last resort of freezing men.
| He did not stop long for elaboration. but be-
gan. with benumbed fingers. to burrow in the
i huge white bank ahead of him. In few mo.
ments he had excavated a hole of considerable
! size, and, drawing his blankets tightly around
| him, he crept in. After short time his body
| began to grow more comfortable and his hands
regain their sense of feeling. Then he grew
sleepy. but he dared not close his eyes. fearing
! that 1t was the stuDOr of freezing that he felt
| At last, without knowing it, he fell asleep and
| did not awake until early the next morning.
| He had passed as comfortable night as if he
had roof over his head and save for his frost
bitten finger tips. which had been exposed, he
was uninjured by his night in the snow. He re-
sumed the tramp early in the morning, and to-
wards the close Of the afternoon was much re-
leved to strike a camp of surveyors.

heath eS the Caw.Roy.

from the Denver Tribune.
How strong tRe cowboy Is IN death
How strives he with the Re sper grim
How VIRTUES each sturdy, supple limb
What life is In each dying breath!
His eyes have still the haughty CLEAN,
The flash OF mingled pride and Scorn
They had at early yester nlorn
When he saw us and we saw him
Come piuRgiag through the swollen stream
And drive his heiierS from our corn.
Oh, who hath done this dreadful deed
Huh in an e's1i moment slain
This daShing hero of the plain
This Idol OF the mount and mead?
Oh, hath some jealous Indian chief
Waylaid this warrior OF the ranch
Or hath some envious churl perchance,
Conceiying honest combat vain,
Wrought all this tragedy and grief
By shooting ere he could advance9
He died as cowboys died before
bottle struck him on the head
He tOttered, stumbled, fell and bied
quart or two upon the floor.
Twas Biddy LoOney struck the blow
That caught him just above the ear
He'd kissed her once and called her dear
And then (in sorrow breathe IL low
He'd scorned her pleading cry for beer!

The Bangs-Hnis-IIair Your g Man.

The Bangs-Hnis-Iiair Young Man.
From the Philadelphia Times.
Among the curiosities of alleged estheticism
is the bangs-his-hafr young man. Although he
does not exist at present to an alarming extent.
there is enough Of him to be amusing and in
terest collectors of bric-a-brac. The bangS-hiS-
hair young man moves principally in the circle
of the lily and the utter. but he now and then
gets into theater or church and displays his
efieminate appendage. He has an idea, which is
wonder that his bang is his great attraction.
He is right. 1t is the only feature about him
which does attract for the bangs-his-hair young
man has no natural attraction. 1t is rot his
brains nor bis manlineSs which render him con-
spicuOus. but his bang.
The bangs-hs-hair young man is the BARRIERS
pet He puts more money into the tOnsor al
drawer In day than the ordinary customer
does in a week. He spends small fortune In
bandOline. He thinks of nothing else, worships
bang. To him bang of beauty is a JOY forever
His sister is no longer arranging her hair for a
party than he is in making ready his bang. He
hastens from dinner to the toilet and his last
word before leaving the house is, ''Mamma, how
is my bang!"
The bangs-his-hair young man also parts his
hair in the middle. Ii he did not the bang
wouldn't be nice bang. The bang goes along
with the part, or the part with the bang just as
you prefer-Only the bangs-his-hair young man
has time to indulge in fancy parts The bangs
his-hair young man has neither brains nor busi-
ness, and he therefore has nothing to do but
bang bis hair. It Is too too sweet.

Philadelphia Fashions.


We note with pain that our model society is
collapsing from a state of high colors and wild
extravaganza in dress to an extreme of severe
and poignant simplicity; and many of the most
ornate graces of department are simultaneous
ly disappearing.
The pate de foie grds is no longer OF silken
stuffs, deliberately embroidered or embellished
with tinsel strands, but severely plain in fabric
and devoid of ornamentation. Even the cotBure
aue chanapig1aons is laid on without ostentation.
The pon,nee de terre is scarcely less Lyonaised
than heretofore, but the soudle is thought to be
vulgar, and the b@uf roti is not much affected
by young ladies for street wear. We have no
desire to provoke controversy, but we are I'M
able to see how there can be any substantial
gain from this almost revolutionary departure .
However opinions may differ as to what is per
Missile to-day, certain it is that nothing so
oettr6 would have been tolerated in the time of
Marie Antoinette. Front hair is still worn en-
trdine, but there is disposition to insert more
cores on the crown.
The haitre point bteu is rarely seen at the CIR
die, generally being replaced by touT7lure of
some simple material fastened on with Sdtce
nnditre d'h6teL orc other unostentatious ornament
Walking shoes are worn aCdttedu, except second
mourning, though it is not uncommon to have
them cut surplice. Where mother and daugh-
ter receive on the same day the daughter may
wear a portiere of dark tone, but this would be
thought out of taste on the mother D9jeurner
a la Fourctette is displayed in many of the
shop windows in anticipation of large spring
demand, and some purchases have been made,
but only few forms can stand it; certainly it
would not look well on an obese dame of set
tied department. There is an attempt to force
the revival of the decollete skirt for evening
parties, and it is meeting with some favor. Is
this-we cannot refrain from asking-is this
good taste? A huile d'oliUe overdress may not
be out of place on such occasions, but decoHete
never! There is more of the same kindsin
contemplation, but this will suffice to show
whittier our leaders of fashion are tending.
