is almost certain to fall short. Sup
pose she has a pretty face but too
much paint on it I? That spoils her as
complete beauty. Suppose she has
pretty face but bad form, which is
fully revealed from the waist up by
the tight-ftting dresses they wear
nowadays? Suppose she has a pretty
face but has badly-fttiDg dress, or
rundown shoe, or sOiled gloves, or
an unbecoming hat, or cOlors in her
costume that are not harmonious?
And suppose she has bad walk:
Suppose she jerks heavily along like
crawfsh that moves backward, or
lOpes alon like horse in a canter ?
Don't you see how many things are to
be taken into consideration when you
look for a really handsome woman on
the street? That is why you some
times see face like a dream as it
passes you and you think that it is a
heavenly vision but when you see it
better, and see more than the
face-in other words, when you have
the complete woman before you
ninety-niGe times out of a hundred
there will be something turn thatspoils
the picture. After all there are but
few women who dress well. No
woman dresses well unless she has
some original conception of what is be-
coming to her. No woman dresses
we'll VINO submits herself entirely to
the ideas of somebody else who makes
business of dressing people. The
most perfected art is not at all COM
mercial ''In character, trade takes
away the freshness of every good
idea" Well, of course, the more a
woman is to be dressed the more
mistakes will happen and the greater
the number of possible incongruities
So there is good reason why women,
as you meet them on the street, are
disappointing. The very elaborate
ness with which they clOthe them
selves is the source of those very
defects that rob them of many a
charm.

Most Attractive Women.

New York World
Where are women most attractive
On the street, on the stage, in the
ballroom, at church or al home ?
Women are seen at other places and
under otter conditions. but this query
is intended to cover only a few dis
tinctive roles that women assume In
society as now organized. More
women are seen on the street THAI any
where else. That is, the greatest
number Of different men See the great.
est number of different women on the
street, or rather in street costume.
for they may see them in Broadway
bus, or on a steamboat, or on the
elevated railroad, or on a street car.
4 woman in street costume is Il very
different looking creature frOm 8
woman in stage costume, or IN bail
dress, or in u home wrapper. Not
only are there striking contrasts in
the matter of dress, but in the matter
of personal bearing as well, and as an
object to be looked at, criticised and
admired, a lady walking along Fifth
avenue in front of the Fifth Avenue
hotel, is a Who'll y different being from
the lady WHO agonizss in mimic
tragedy or dances pas seul. 1t is in
the street that the whole appearance
of a woman becomes most effective.
There you see hat, dress, shoes, gloves,
parasol, as well as the face. The
view is generally transitory and often
deceptive. And vet with these advan-
tages how seldom it is that you see
really handsome woman on the street.
OF all the hundreds that you will
meet on fair afternoon in a walk
from Tbirty-third street to Fourteenth
street or Broadway, how many are
there that are really pretty? / sup
pose thought like this has popped
into the minds of great many people,
and always with an accompanying
feeling of disappointment. When on

QUITE ROMANTIC.
The Escapade OF a Boy Who
Didn't Like His Allitera-
tive Name.

Louisiana, No., Republican.
About a year ago fifteen year-old
boy applied to DIR. j. t. Matson for
work on h farm. The Buys name
was as given by himself, Dick Tracy.
He came to DR.. Matson's from Saver
ton, and was recommended by Chas.
L. Hyde. The doctor gave him sit
uation, and ne proved to be an active
and quite INTEL gent boy. For nearly
year he lived there, the family
knowing nothing of the boys previous
history, except what he chose to tell
himself, which was in effect that his
mother was a washerwoman an lived
in Champaign, Ill. About month
ago DIR. Matson preached the subject
of school to the boy, and said he
ought TO provide himself with an ed
ucatiOn. Tracy replied that he had
come TO the Inclusion to go TO Den
yer, where he had an uncle who was
running a machine shop. DR.. Mat
son then wrote to this uncle-Glen-
denning by name, and spoke very
favorably of the youth. He was
quite surprised to receive letter from
Glendenning saying that he had no
such nephew as Dick Tracy. but from
the description of the boy, he had no
doubt that it was his brothers son
and that he ran away from his home
in Detroit, Michigan, two years ago
He said the boys real name was An
drew Alexander GIendenning. The
uncle also wrote to his brother concern
ing the fate of his son. The mother
OF the boy. who had long mourned
him as dead, wrote to Marshal Wise
man, enclosing the boys picture and
asking that he be taken care Of. She
also wrote to DIR Matson and to Dick.
The latter letter was full of pathos
and tenderness, just such a letter as
DO human being, except mother can
write. DIR. Matson interviewed Dick.
and told him if he would promise not
to run away again he would see that
he wasn't arrested. which promise
YVES made. "Wednesday a telegra u
was received from Mrs. Glendenning
stating that she had started fol
Louisiana and would be here thai
night. She arrived on the midnight
train and the runaway came in tC
meet her, and in her room at the
hotel she ciasped once more to hel
motherly heart the offspring she hat
we'll nigh given up for dead. Thurs
day the mother and son took THEN
departure, via Chica and Alton
railroad, for their home at Detroit.
II seems heartless that boy should
desert his mother and for two Ions
years refuse to inform her of hi;
whereabouts. But there are general
| " mitigating circumstances, and il
was SO in this case. His parents
named him Andrew Alexander, and
no boy with any pluck or spirit would
tamely submit to such a name. And
then again, bis father wanted him to
take music lessons. This was surely
great provocation to ran away. And
we believe when the parents get to
thinking it over they will forgive him.

This is also the season when the
poor but honest farmer plows up jugs
containing $4,000 in gold coin ;
when folks clean out wells and find
dead loads of silverware when old
houses are torn down and bags con-
tanning silver dollars come 10 light,
and when tramps along railroad lines
find diamond rings by the sackful.
Every such incident is true-positive-
ly true, and any one doubling the
fact will be shown a bag of gold
watches brought up from the bottom
of Lake Erie on a schooner's an
