FOR THE DEAR GIRLS.

The approaching season in PhiladeIpnla
is not expected to be q gay one. There
viii be but few debutantes, and there 10
reason for supposing that the number OF
fathers who will give large and expensive
parties in order to launch daughters sue
eessfully upon society viii be fewer STILL

Mr.. Andrew Carnegie has somewhat
amused Londoners BY gravely giving the
Queen a certificate of character In his
Round the World in these words:
Victoria, probably the most respectable
woman who ever occupied throne, such
character as one would not hesitate to In
troduce to ones family circle"
A leading woman of fashion has taken
census OF one summer resort and can count
sixty girls who will never marry. They
are brought up to spent money, and must
marry it or remain single. But the men OF
their own set will not marry except for
some great advantage, and they know to
dot tn Sc sixty girls viii not only be poor
themselves, but will have poor sisters.
The presence of ladies at the polls, in the
various wards, at the town election, was
new feature in politics. The innovation
seems TO be significant. At any rate the
effect seemed to be good, in tending to pro
duce a quiet and orderly conditions OF
things at the polls. 1t is almost needless
to add, that the woman offered the voters
none but the Prohibition ticket.-Harttord

The following will be of interest to those
who are married and prospective candidates

paper; second, straw; third, candy; fourth

linen; fifteenth, crystal; twentieth, floral;
twenty-ffth, silver; thirtieth, pearl thirty
fifth, china; fortieth, coral; forty-Gfth, brass;
6ftieth, golden, and seventy-ffth, diamond.
Hymen, the presiding genius of wedlock,
is either drunk or crazy. We are in the
midst of the most remarkable period Of
mesalEance, bigamy, elopement and
clandestine marriage that in all probability
the world ever saw. The revelations grow
ing out of the Woodruff Clafin anti Beecher
case investigation concerned bad women
and cranks, but this epidemic is among de-
cent people-at least nearly all the women

A MONSTERS SEVEN WIVES.
The Pathetic Story Related of Some Tomb
stones in an Old Cemetery.


Sudbury Letter in Chicago In'e.-O cedR,
Iretraced my steps and again crossed
the SaIzbach. Up against the vertical
granite wall OF Monchsburg | found the
cemetery OF st. Peter-the old st city Of
the dead here. The houses adjoining on
either side were built up against the flat
perpendicular surface of the mountain,
while high above, directly over their roofs,
large forest treess we're luxurisntiy growing
out Of the rock. At the extreme top
lowered the giant Walls Of the old castle
now a ti6cation-looking as if they
might at any moment topple over and en-
tomb the tombs AS | was walking away
| saw six iron crosses huddled together in a
row near by, with the base OF another which
had been broken and removed. Upon in
uuiry learned that this was not second
edition of the Seven Sleepers, but the meIan-
choly spot where seven successive wives OF
a masculine monster had been Inferred.
The pathetic part Of of the story is that the
seven all enjoyed the noyety OF death BY
having the soles of their feet tickled. 1t is
interesting to record that the eighth spouse
discovered the fate that was awaiting her,
and delivered her fendish consort over to
the authorities, so that the previous deaths
were avenged albeit tsrdily.

A Russian Trick.

A Cossack rode up to the door Of Q
little inn at Braile, dismounted, drank
a succession Of glasses of brandy, and
then made show Of remounting his
horse. The landlord reminded him
that lie had not paid for his drink. The
Cossack with heavy sigh, drew out
his dirty purse, and began fnmbiine
for coin, when his horse gave snd-
ken snort and fell to the ground. The
Cossack was in despair, lie did every
thing lie could to raise the beast upon
its legs, but all was iii vain. "He is
dead! He is dead!" crie,l out in chorus
a number of bystanders, who had been
attracted to the spot by the accident.
The poor Cossack would not believe it.
The crowd, knowing that Cossack's s
horse is his own property, and that
the loss of the animal would strike
o terrible blow to the owner, be-
gan to n,akea collection. in order to
mitigate his sntierings as far as possible.
Even the landlord WAS touched, forgot
his lill, and presented the bereavcd
man with another glass OF brandy, re-
flsing any pay. The Cossack lifted up
his saddle, slung his lance over his
shoulder, dropped farewell tear over
the faithful beast, and walked SORROW
fully away. When he was about one
thousand PAGES distant lie suddenly
stopped, turned ronnd and gave long
sllrill whistle. At tlr. sound of the
well-known signal, the horse sprang mp,
ncighed friendly answer. AMI .larteL
of with lightning speed To his grim
ming owner. The Cossack wassoon on
his buck, making significant symbols Of
thanks to the assembled crowd for Their
generosity and sympathy. In few
minutes lie was ont of sight, and the
landlord Of the krottcIlma was loudly
