Netting and Trapping Partridges.

One of the best laws passed by the last
session Of the Legislature is that against
the practice of indiscriminately netting
and trapping partridges. For years these
birds have been gradually becoming scarcer
and scarcer, until now scarcely co7ey can
be seen in days hunt. .Thc meters and
trappcrs are exterminating them by coveys
wherever they find them, leaving not a bird
from whole covey for breeding stock, and
if the practice is not stopped the pleasant
and cherry whistle Of "Bob White" will
soon be strange sound in this section.
As "a warning to those persons now pur-
suing this practice Of capturing these
birds, we publish the Law now in force:
An Act to prevent the netting and trap
ping OF partridges, except by persons
Upon their own lands.
Spcr1oN l. That it shall not be lawful for
any person, except upon his own land, to
net or trap partridge.
SEC. 2. That any person violating this
Act shall be guilty of misdemeanor and
upon conviction, shallb punished by fine
Of thirty dollars, or by yimprisonmentin the
County Jail for the term of thirty days
SEC. 8. That this Act shall 60 into opera
ton immediately after its approval.

"nnr Women 10 tho War."

The New, and Courier. Charleston, s. g.,
desires to obtain fifty or more sketches OF
the experiences, grave or gay, lively or Sc
we're, of the Southern women during the
war. Little has been published hitherto
concerning their sufferings, an1ieties and
priyations, and the Ne,us and Courier wishes
to make the record OF the war complete by
giving the American public q just idea OF
what the Southern women endured during
the struggle for the Lost Cause. There was
comedy as well as tragedy in their daily
life, and the object is to obtain descriptions
of every side and phase of Southern wo-
mans trials and triumphs, at home or as
refugee, during the Confederate struggle.
The sketches in question will be published
in the Weekly News. Charleston, S. c., under
the general title of "Our Women in the
War" The conditions are as follows:
/. The sketches must be written by
Southern women who were in the South
during the war, and shall be confined to
description of events and circumstances OF
which the writers have personal knowledge,
and with which they or their families we're
CONNECTED.
2. Each sketch shall fill not less than fif-
teen ncr more than thirty pages of foolscap,
written on one side.
3. The sketches shall be sent, with the
real name of the writer, 10 the Ne,os and
Courier, Charleston, S. c., not later than
March 1st. 1884.
4. Every sketch that is accepted will be
prom ptly paid for, and any Southern wo-
man who desires to do so can send in two
or more sketches.
The object in view is certainly an excel
lent one and it is hoped that Southern wo-
men everywhere will do their part in max
ing the undertaking successful, sin order"
as the News and Courier says, that tardy
justice may be rendered to the women who
encouraged the soldiers by their patient for
titude and solaced them with words OF
cheer, and who, through all manner hard
ship, Of anguish. of misery, were faithful
and true to the very end-and after'

There is talk as to whether frock,
dress or gown is the best word. Dress,
! t must be remarked, first, is more
comprehensive term than frock or
gown and may be used as inclusive 1t
was generally so used until within the
past thirty years or the lifetime of the
basque. Fifty years ago womans
dress was in one piece and was called
gown; the girls dress frock. The
loose jacket and skirt worn by the
poorer class of women about their
work was known as short gown and
petticoat. The jacket was cut straight,
not shaped to the figure and tied or
belted in about the waist. An indie
pendent bodice was known and worn
about that time and was subsequently
called spencer" The earliest at
tempt at a basque consisted in adding
a short tabled skirt to this independent
waist.
A gown is properly dress made in
one piece, and the term "tea gown is
correctly applied to the afternoon
toilets which are all of a piece, not
neglige enough for wrappers. nor con-
ventional enough for dinner or even
ing dress.
Frock is obsolete. 1t was always
better applied to children than to the
dress of lady, but the gathered blouse
worn by laborers and cartmen in
English agricultural districts and
known in their vernacular as the
"smock frock" has been revived for
girls and boys of late as an apron for
in or out of doors and classed as a
kate Greenaway' garment. a long
princesse dress, open in 'front.' showing
stitched or ornamental breadth sup
posed to be the petticoat, was a robe
dress. Afterward manufacturers called
''pattern" dresses, dresses in boxes
with flounces and trimming, robe
dresses and the distinctive appellation
was lost,--yennie June,

Lucky Days for weddings.

Marriage superstitions hold great
sway in Philadelphia, and the number
ofpeople who fear to violate them is
large June always sees great in
crease in the number of weddings, be-
cause May is not considered so lucky
There are certain times and dates,
however, which are considered more
fortunate than others for the marriage
ceremony, owing, perhaps, to some old
ideas of astrology. and if any one will
notice it will be found that they are ex-
tensively observed 1t must not lie
forgotten that this is leap year, and the
days which superstition fixes upon as
being the most fortunate are: Febru-

May 5, 6, z: June Z, Is; July z, Is;

with it or not, the moon at these days is

A Case i'm Point.

Young Johnny Jarpley was inclined to
be a good boy, and his mother spent
much time in instructing him in the
enormity of the sin of telling falsehoods,
and, to impress it upon him, wound up
by telling him that people who told lies
choked to death. When the Rev. Mr..
and Mrs. Muckle were taking dinner at
the Jarpley's, on "return CALL" the
next day, Mrs. Jarpley asked her guest
80, Mrs. Muckle, you like my cook
ing"
'It is splendid, Mrs. Jarpley, just
Splendid" enthusiastically responded
Rev. Muckle's lady. ''Mr. Jarpley is for
tunate in the possession of such an ex-
cellent cook as yourself"
Just as the lady concluded she took a
sip of water, and few drops "going the
wrong way" caused her to cough
"There she goes! There she goes,
mother!n exclaimed young Jarpley in
great excitement. 81 heard her say,
when you was out Of the parlor, to Mr.
Muckle, she wished it was all over, as
one of your dinners was enough to kill a
mule, and she wondered how your hus
band had ever lived so long. "-Pitts5urg

George and the Geese.

George, do you want to go to the
orchard with me while I hang up the
clothes?"
"Oh yes, yes, Barbie," said George,
clapping his hands. He was always
glad to go to the orchard with some
one, but he was afraid to go alone, he
was such little fellow. He felt sure
Barbie would take just as good care of
him as mamma always did; but when
the clothes were hung up Barbie went
to the house without saying WORD to
George.
The little boy soon found that he
was alone, and set up loud cry. This
drew the attention of flock of geese,
who were nlbbling grass near by, and
they all came around him. No doubt
they wondered what small thing it
was that stood so still and made such
Il noise. It. couldn't be a goose,
though George was not much bigger
than a goose, and, you may think
acted much like one. Was it some,
thing good to eat?
They quacked to each other these
questions, and then they began to nib
bic his fingers. Georges cries grew
louder and his tears fell faster, and
oh, how far away the house seemed,
and there were no windows looking
out upon the orchard. He would run,
but he was afraid the geese would
knock him down with their wings. If
he stood still he was afraid they
would eat him up, and mamma would
never know where her little boy had
gone to.
Oh, he must get home to mamma:
and giving one great, big, frightened
yell, he started and ran, expecting the
next moment to feel the strong white
wings beating him to the ground; but
to his great surprise the geese made
no objection to his going, and he was
soon showing his bleeding fingers to
mamma and telling the story Of his
wonderful escape. Mamma listened,
and kissed the little finger-tips and
bound them up carefully. She rocked
her little boy in her arms and sang
to him. The geese in the orchard
went on quietly nibbling the grass
They had forgotten all about him.

once during the month of January fell

of the various gardens are described as
