IN later years dead white without any
color. His forehead, the setting of his
eye, the line of his nose-all that is beau
tltul, and reminds one of an antique me-
dalton. His mouth, which is thin-lipped,
becomes agreeable when he laughs; the
teeth are regular. His chin is short, and
his jaw heavy and square. He has we'll

CHARLES JAMES Fox always lived at
the top of his powers. A vigorous con-
stitution and the best of health made it
possible for his intellectual faculties to be
kept at high pressure, and he had that
energy of will which made it pleasure
BILE exercise in all things to Labor at ex-
cellence," as indeed was his motto. His
oratory seemed to bear the stamp of ma
ture; and yet only long apprenticeship
in private theatricals, to the art of ex-
pressing the meaning of mothers words
had given him such power with his own.
His scholarship was great; yet, as Mr..
Trevelyan says, he chad nothing of a pc
dant except the requirements. His vast
and varied mass of erudition, far exceed
ing that of many men who have been
famous for nothing else, was all aglow
with the intense vitality of his eager and
brilliant intellect. Chris. ZnteZIqencer.

Dress Reforms.

Strangely enough, the people who are
most opposed to any alteration are not,
as might be expected, the young and
smart-looking woman, but those who
adopt what is sometimes called the SEN
sible woman style of dress" This is
usually of no particular cut or color; it
IS chilly worn by those who take no great
pride in their personal appearance, and
who, if they are ever spoken to about the
need of reform, are apt to say, 81 see no
necessity for change; my clothes could
hurt no one-look how loose they are p
Restrained by politeness, one makes no
reply; but the thought arises in the
mind, True, and remarkably ugly OBJ
ject you are" We do not want a con-
tinued fussing over style of dress
which, from its perverted shape, never
to the end of time can or will be made at
once healthy and-there is no English
word for it-chic. For this reason it
will never attract young women; and by
all the laws of nature young women will
ever be the guides in dress; so that what
people should turn their attention to and
try to bring about is a new departure in
dress. Here and there, for instance. a
person will be found who can wear a
tight-ftting dress bodice without stays or
(what often produces the same efect)
padding. But, speaking generally, quite
ight-ftting dress bodies without STAYS
look untidy and like pin-cushions.
If, then, we keep in mind these posi-
tive facts, that solar from small waist
being beauty, if such Thing could
exist naturally, it would be great de-
formity; and that in proportion to the
width of their shoulders, women are
larger in the waist than men-thus fol-
lowing an obvious natural law-we shall
begin to realize that our clothes are
planned upon mistaken idea. Without
a waist, and with a skirt completely hid
ing the outline of the legs, the figure be-
comes one long straight piece from
shoulders to feet, a thing in itself too
ugly to be long endured. This is clearly
why we have adopted the plan OF making
a waist, and as much variety of shape as
possible in the way Of humps and ex-
crescences in the clothing Of the upper
part of our bodies. In warm climates
the skirt was originally either very short
or very thin, so that the legs we're per
mitted to be seen; but in colder climates,
and with the advantage Of civilization
this could not be, so we have arrived at
the present plan Of concealing all signs
Of legs, which causes the attention Of
women to be almost morbidly directed
to the body alone. If some form Of dress
were devised, with covering or skirt
for each leg, and a lightly draped skirt
over, reaching to about the knees, or
even a little below them, and allowing
the legs to appear slightly, we should
have costume WITH which, being in ac-
cordance with nature, the rest Of the
lines Of the body would resume their

giving them such consideration as they
deserve.
Show your affection by quietly allot-
ting her the most comfortable seat at
the Preside, ard daintiest tidbit at the
table.
Make her home as comfortable as your
means will allow.
Be mindful Of her if she has partic-
ularly hard days work.
Never allow her to bring pals of
water, bring hods of coal, nor build the
furnace fires. You can do it with far
less loss of nervous power than she; the
mother of your children needs all her
vital energy in accomplishing those du-
ties which she alone can perform.
Give her such means, for her own and
children's wardrobe, as you can reason
ably afford
Give her means to repair the wear and
tear of household effects. Woman is
naturally ambitious and tasteful Her
good sense makes her economical. She
will make the most of her means.
Be cheerful when you enter your
home.
Don't be afraid to praise the neat room
and bright fire. Don't be afraid of los
lng dignity, if you praise her cooking.
Don't be afraid to praise her mending,
and her skill in fashioning and making.
Don't fail to give her words of apprecia-
ton, whenever you can conscientiously
approve Never deceive her. Be ever
true to her. Let your conduct be such
that she will be proud of you Be so
upright that she will be happy in teach
ing your children to honor you.
Do not sit silent all the evening alb
sorbed In your book or newspaper.
Give your family some of your atten-
ton. Tell them the amusing things that
have frightened your days labor.
Speak kindly to the children.
Play or talk with them few moments
after supper. Interest yourself in your
wife's employment. Encourage her when
she is down-hearted. Be glad with her
when she is happy.
Let her know by your words and at
teutions that she is appreciated, and you
made happier that she walks by your
side. Don't wait to tell the world upon
marble that which will be so grateful to
her loving heart to hear from your lips.
Share with her your good fortune as un-
selfshly as you do your i'll.
Let her walk by yoor side, your hon
ored companion; your strong hand help
ing her over the rough places, and sus-
tanning, when wearied, lest she faint by
the way.-Go8pel Banner.

You Dream Too Big For Me. )

One day Sir William johnson, the In
dian agent in the Mohawk country. under
the Colonial government, was unpacking
some clothing brought from England.
Hendrlck, famous Indian chief, was
present. and took strong fancy for an
embroidered coat. He dare not ask for
it, but next day he told johnson dream
Last night" said be, me dream you
say, Hendrick, you've been good friend,
and now reward you, and you gaveme
the gold coat
The white man pondered moment
and then said
" You are right the coat is yours"
Not long afterward Johnson told Hen
drlck he had been dreaming.
And what did my white brother
dream"
That you took me by the hand and
SAID, Sir William, you have been nv
friend, and l will show my love for you.
| will give you all the land on the great
river and Canada Creek"
The Indian was amazed, for the tract
was nearly hundred thousand acres in
extent, and very choice land. But he
was not to be outdone in generosity, and
finally replied
My pale brother, the land is yours;
but, he added, after long pause, Sir
William, We won't dream any more; YOU
dream too big for me.
The old chiefs title was confirmed by
the British government, and the land
was long known as the Royal Grant.
