Simple Dress.

No one who is familiar with the can
ons of good taste need be told that SNOWY
dress or protusion of iewelry is IA sure
sign of vulgarity and want of breeding
in the wearer. Especially is this SO i'll
the case of young girls, whose attire
should be essentially different from that
of married woman. 1t should be simple,
both i'll material and fashion. Much
jewely is out of place on any unmarried
lady under thirty--and. indeed, the less
jewelry worn by any lady, except at an
evening entertainments the better. 1t
takes generations of culture, perhaps, for
woman to learn the charm of simplicity.
The women who are used to the queen S
drawlng-room are not those who weal
their tilery on ordinary occasions. D.ess
must always be a matter of individual
taste and suitability but the most com
p}ete novice i'll society can easily inform
herself as to when full dress is required,
aud when she should put Oh her bonnet.

THE DELAWARE College Review, for
November is an admirable publication
ably edited, and put together by no
mere novice of typo. Taken altogether
the Review of 1882 shows commenda-
BILE spirit of advancement when COM
pared with the Advance of 1878. The
present numbe contains mass of in
toresting matter of local Importance.
The latter always enhances the value
of publication and happily Newark
and vicinity abound in plenty of ma
terial to make paper interesting. Pro-
fessors Chester and Mackey contribute
able articles, the first on the geology Of
Newark and the latter more popular
article on the late Samuel M. Harring-
ton, ESQ.,, formerly student in the
college,. The Review should have a
place on every literary table.

try is amply supplied with animal and

ing 1t wholly unnecessary to indulge q

posed matter as an article of food--a

ened people. The society gives fair
challenge and announces openly that 1t

tory legislation to carry out its object
We would like to know what this socie-
ty proposes to give our German citizens
in lieu of their limburger and Saur-
kraut? Deodorizing would take from
them the very quality for which they
are held in:high repute. Imagine lin
burger and saur-kraut without smell

tizer, pumpkin and mincemsat pie Z
Those may have a Pleasanter smell than
the abused limburger and saur-kraut,
but we have serious doubts whether
they are upon the whole any healthier
We are not Germans, but somehow we
are very strongly inclined to indulge
In saur-kraut occasionally, and we
await with some degree of anxiety to
see the progress the new society will
make amongst the Germans and If they
succeed in abolishiDG limburger and

init with the best grace we can. After
that we shall favor the organization Of

iect the destroying of the taste OF

PRESIDENT ARTHUR's message u
Congress is q sensible document, fer
mulated from the actual business
standing OF the country and the drift
of public sentiment. He goes into a
minute detail of the revenues of the
Nation, showing the receipts and e1-
penditures, and in view of the large
surplus on hand recommends q reduc'
tion in taxation except upon tobacco
and spirits. A noteworthy passage in
the message is the Presidents attitude
on the question of civil service reform,
an attitude evidently not expected
when compared with his previous &C
tions. Another noteworthy paragraph
is the opposition by the President to
political assessments, and his recon-
mendation tor q law forbidding such
assessments In the future. The mes
sage, though lacking the polish the
deep thought and scholarship Ut Presi-
dent Gar6eld's message, Is not by any
means below mediocrity, and if we are
not mistaken will elicit general favora-

And now another reform ia to go
sweeping over the country and all So
cial refoImers are requested TO join in
the crusade. This time public opinion
is to be invoked against two of the chief
articles Of diet amongst the German
population. James Allen Halkins,
whoever he is, Secretary of "The Socie-
ty for the reform of the social habits OF
foreigners" OF behalf of such Society
has issued an edict from Cambridge,
Massachusetts, calling upon all the
good, the pure and the faithful in the
nation. to organize into branch societies
and join in holy crusade against linn
burger and saur-kraut. The ukase
from Cambridge, at once places llm-
burger and saur-kraut under the ban by
declaring one decayed animal matter
and the other decayed vegetable matter.
1t says the odor ef the first is identical
with the odor of uncleanliness and is
abhored by every person whose tastes
are OF debased. Saur-Kraut also pos
sesses a vile odor and is only less a
nuisance because it is not 30 often met
in public, but to all imports it is as dis
gusting substance as limburger cheese
The Cambridge edict is, as usual with
such proclamations, accompanied with
the opinions of an eminent physician,
named Sir Alfred Munson, M. D., +.
r. A., and all the rest of the alphabet,
who attributes the most of the diseases
to which flesh is heir amongst the Ger
mans, to such diet as limburger and
