AN able Washington correspon- dent writes that with all his cool. ness of temperament and reinarka. bic self possession the president is extremly sensitive to. any criti cisms which have the appearance of justice. All rehecting people realizing that he moves slowly and delib ,rately because he desires to make no mistake. He realizes. il Is said that in three or four instan- ces, perhaps, appointments have been made to which proper excep ton can be taken, but in every one of these cases the mistake has been made through the failure of those upon whom he was compell- ed to rely to communicate infOr- nation which they had no right to withhold. Those appointments which have incurred hostile criti. cism from newspapers which start ed out friends of the administration the president realizes, will turnis h fuitful themes for the enemy, and it is likely he will even be more deliberate and careful in futui ( than he has been in the past. The greatest change needed for the ad ministration to make is in the off ces of the South.

On Wheels.

Brother Ward, of the Newport Herald. has been taking lessons in skating. He denies it-says he only looked through tue key-hole, but he gives himself away in tbe following description of his first visit to skating rink: "We don't know where it broke out, or when it started. We don't know who took it first, or whether he survived the attack, But cer- tain it is that i: broke out, and was contagious. Nothing ever spread 1 like it before. In less than three years it spread all over the civil ized world, and through Missouri. At last it has reached Newport. and fully two-thirds of the popula- ton of the town has got it and got it bad. We refer to the roller ska ting mania. On last Monday eve ming c. ". Culp opened a first class rink in the Stayton building. on Front street and is receiving excellent patronage. We went up the first evening to take our first peep into a frst,class rink. We didn't venture in. but looked through the key-hole, and this l' part of what we saw: A largo crowd of ladies and gentleman or wheels wore on the inside and al in state of agitation. All were racing for some object, which as wt could not sse it, we presumed t( be the ghost of the man who in- vented roller skates. Sometimes the skaters would fall face down. ward, as though they were inspect ing something on the floor, ano again they would lie down and look anxiously at the ceiling, anC then, as if an idea had struck them they would slowly rise up, and for a while proceed carefully around the room. AS we looked on, amaz ed and curious, the mirth and fun grew fast and furious, and part oi the time the skaters were
 Falling and spralhng,
 Rising and Leaping,
 Sinking and creeping,
 Whislting and frisking,
 Turning and twisting,
 Collecting, projecting,
 Exceeding and speeding,
 And darting and parting,
 And treading and spreading,
 And hitting and splitting,
 And tossing and crossing,
 Ard hurrying and scurrying,
 Dividing and gliding and sliding,
 And falling and brawlinG and sprallng,
 And humping and jumping and plumping And So never ending.
 The skaters kept on, until we be came unconscious, and were car ried away. We are going again a soon as we recover.

A Good Many Failures.

During the year 1886 there were 10. 5jS failures in business in the United States and Canada. Some of these were big concerns, and some were very small. Failure is sorrowful business to any man, es- pecially if it is his health that fails. A great many times 10,56S people fail in health in the course of a year. Many of them might be saw ed if they would take Browns Iron Bitters, the great family medicine and restorer of wasted health.

New PoIonaises.

The prettiest polonaises made up of
rough wool goods over changeable
silk skirts are cut with long apron
fronts that extend far back on the
sides, while the middle forms of the
back are shortened in basque shape,
and finished with long loops of MORE
or of velvet ribbons. The silk skirt
worn with this is of similar color and
has three wide gathered flounces cover
ing the back breadths, while only one
fiounce extends around the foot in
front. When taffeta silks of light
quality are used for these flounces, each
founce is edged with three narrow
pinked ruffles cut out in leaf points.
The pleating on the shoulders and at
the waist line appears in these polo
noises also, and there is a half-belt OF
velvet across them in front. Grenadine
or lace polonaises will be made in this
way to wear with satin, MORE or faille
skirts. Harper Basar.

Directly behind these villages scars the
range called the Shimran, or Light of

thousand feet. Nearly all summer its
crest is crowned with snow, which,
melting, flows down to the garden be-
low. In winter this range is white to

is frequently the exclamation of one lady
to another. The fact is not pleasant one
to have mention, but still the act may be a
kindly one, for it sets the one addressed to
thinking, apprises her of the fact that she

a reason therefor. Pallor is almost always
