FOrtune-TeIIers.

The fortune-telling sisterhood contrive
to make considerable money in pander-
ing to the credulity of their ''clients.
The usual charge for a consultation is
fifty cents or a dollar; but the price is
as elastic as the seers conscience. and
can be stretched indefinitely. The trade
of fortune-telling is now monopoEzed by
women. Some years ago there we're a
few men in the business. They called
themselves astrologists, and had an as
tonishing kind of intimacy with the
stars. But the women now have the
field to themselves. The impression
that all their dupes are of the servant
girl class is a mistake. A great many
wealthy ladies patronize them. 1t is not
by any means uncommon to hear woman
of average intelligence and fair educa-
ton say that she believes IN fortune-tell-
ing. With great many women of this
sort, the first impulse when anything
goes wrong, is to consult fortune-teller.

years ago, the trade was considerably
hurt. for some time. But it soon -four
ished again, and is now as ever, if not
more so. We have a law against it, but
the harpies who follow it don't mind
that. The law says that those who 'spre-
tend to tell fortunes, or where lost and
stolen goods can be found" shall be held
as disorderly persons. But it is easy
enough for them to find bail, take an
other name, and go on with their nefari-
ious business.

Mems Pants.

Fun dress pants have always sustained
many objections, and men have never
been entirely satisfied with the bifurcated
garment. If they reach the boot heel,
they must either take the dirt and dust
of the street. or men must suffer what is
infinitely worse the hideousness of
walking the streets with pants "rolle d
up. You can conceive of nothing more
alarming TO the eye of beauty than
man standing in pants whose lower edges
are curled up" He presents the APP
pearance OF having on a garment for
which he has improvised dirty and rag
ged RIFLES, made of the same material
as the body Of the pants. To bring the
thing before you wildly, think of a statue
made Of a man with his pants - turned
mp" How would that kind of a figure
look in marble? We have always
thought that the author of the novel en-
titled .'He Cometh Not, She Said,
must have been endowed with a fine
sense OF beauty She makes one of her
characters discard her lover because she
saw him passing on the other side OF the
street with his pants turned up.
Another horror attending the common
pants as worn by men, Is that they
''bag horribly at the knee. As yet
there has been no means suggested to
overcome the disabilities now imposed
upon ordinary trousers. They will have
to continue. 1t was thought that the
aesthetic craze might afford some relief,
but the Cincinnati Gdzette says:
Accepting knee breaches as the aesthetic
clothes, several persons have written IN
their favor that they will avoid that bag
giness to which trousers are subject at
the knees, from the devotional posture,
and from the habit of sitting with one
leg resting ON the other. Not to dis
courage this movement, but to prevent
disappointment in a worthy effort, 1t
should be mentioned that this idea of
the exemption of knee breeches from
being kneed is radical error, for that
their being fastened Just below the knee,
and the tightness which BELTS this gar
ment, allow no slack for the bending of
the knee therefore would knee breaches
be kneed more than trousers. That
shorter form of breeches, which does
not come to the knee, would be requisite
to avoid this bagginess. Yet the tights
worn under these would bag. The
aesthetic clothes are not free from diff
ficulty, but no one should be discouraged
The cause is worthy of a great effort, and
of great sacrifice, if necessary. Let
every aspiring aesthetic say, with Harry
v, Once more to the breach, dear
friendsr The Scotch Highland costume
is absolutely exempt from bagging at
the knees. 1t has also picturesqueness
far surprising Mr.. Oscar Wilde's black
breeches, black stockings, and stiff dress
coat, and more betting the aesthetic
renaissance, whose emblems are the sun
flower and the lily" The gentle apostle
OF the aesthetics certainly never visited
Scotland, or he never would have adopted
the old dull-colored English pants, and
left unrecommended the unique High
land costume. Herald
