Struggles to Keep in Styio.

1t is an astonishing thing to observe
the style which New York men are oc.
casionally able to put on by dint of
stretching out an income which is alb
surdly small. Small clerks, with sal
aries Of twelve dollars week,
pay seven dollars OF it for their
board, two dollars for their washing,
at least two dollars for their car fares
and luncheons, and yet manage to
wear fashionable clothes. Some of
these well-dressed but impecunious
young men possess an amount of in
formation about clothes, boots, hats,
and the like that astonishes men who
devote their time and thinking to
graver things, and even equals that OF
the feminine dresser. They will go five
miles up town and patronize q little
shoemaker in side street, because he
is cheap and has the mack of pastine
8 patch on q shoe with such cleverness
that it is scacely visible. Most of them
have very old suits of clothes, which
they put on as soon as they arrive
down town, and they all shave them
selves, black their own boots, smoke
cigarettes, go through no end of de-
privatious and endure heart.rending
miseries that they may be able
to go with girls in the best
society. Lots of fun is made of them,
but, after all, they may be right, for
dress has q great deal to do with a.
mans success in New York. Business
men like to be surrounded by fashion
ably clad and prosperous-looking
clerks, and the knowledge that he is
wearing good clothes always imparts
q certain amount OF confidence to the
wearer. The merchant tailors along
Broadway and the better avenues
brag principally of the, fit they give
their customers in return for rather
liberal expenditure of money. Itdoes
not do to go to a hallway tailor.
Even though he succeeds in fitting
you, there is sure to be common
look about the clothes. An ordinary
suit, with a cut-away coat, made at
amy one OF the hundred or two Broad
way tailors, will cost from fifty to
sixty dollars, and will look common
place but durable A similar suit
bought Of 81 swell concern, would cost
seventy-fvc dollars, but it would be
distinctive]y fashionable in cut, and
have that peculiar air of distinction
which goes to make a fashionable
tailo1's fortune.-New York Cores.

italian Scenery.

There is an education needed for the
appreciation of nature as we'll as of art
Many people scorn this notion, and as
there undoubtedly are some with so fine
an innate perception and discrimina-
ton of the beautiful that they in-
stinctively recognize it, anybody may
believe himself to be one of the chosen
few. But the rest of us know that
without the native gift, which nothing
can wholly replace, the eye and taste
REQUIRE experience and training to COM
prehend ard analyze the beauties OF
the outer world. There was time
when resented as -hotiv as most other
Americans the idea that any scehery
could surpass our own;I knew that
the Alps were higher than the AlleKh4-
nies, but, beyond that, thought 1i1at
where there are mountains, valleys, a
lake, a waterfall, there must of neces-
sity be view Of the utmost beauty,
withoutregard to degree. It would he
as rational to maintain that human
being is necessarily beautiful because
possessed Of eyes, moss, Ind chin; al
most everything depends upon the out
line; and the relative proportion and
disposition of the features. The italian
landscape has q classic form and pro-
file; its glowing complexion is due to
the light-that heavenly effulgence
which can transfgure any scene.-At-
