Now that we are considering women
who are or have been young and fash
ionable, let me incidentally voice the
complaint of a friend of mine who
has been a husband only a few
months. He says his wife has become
a monemaniac on the subject of phys
ical Improvement. She persistently
goes in for every thing that promises
to heighten her charms.
"She is successful, / presume" /
remarked by way of comfort. "She
is nuisance" he holly retorted. "Do
you suppose | found my bride fair
untrammeled slumberr. such as she
might be, and was u this craze
took possession of her. No, no, no.
Her hands were in an old pair of my
gloves last night, packed in some sort
of slush for whitening the skin. Her
ears were tied fiat with bandage to
make 'em lie close to her head. Her
lips were smirched with cold cream
and her eyebrows were thick with
onguent, put on to make 'em get lux
urious. Her hair was in an oiled-silk
bag to keep an experimental satura-
ton from soiling the pillow"
There's nothing so frightfully re-
pulsive in all that. You can't expect
your wife to sleep in a perfect and
elaborate condition Of toilet"
"Worse than / have told remains
to tell. L had grown a little recon
ciled to things like | have mentioned,
and sometimes they were quite enter
tanning, for every week or so she tried
a new recipe to produce some effect or
other. But last night l was scared
half to death by my first glimpse of
her. Somebody had told her how to
make the toilet masks that are the
rage now among women. She had
obediently melted a teaspoonful of tar
in pint of hot olive oil and spread
the composition all over her face.
This was warranted to refine the skin,
brighten the complexion and prevent
wrinkles. The directions were to
cover the smear with patches of soft
linen-and that was what made me
think she had met with same dreadful
accident >"

The Reason WHY.

Ny son, there's nothing ON earth 50
mysteriously funny as a newspaper
advertisement. The prime, first, last
and all the time object of on adver-
tisement is to draw custom. It's not.
was not, and never will be designed
, for any other human purpose. So the
the merchant waits till fhe busy sea-
lson comes and his store is so full of
>custom he can't get his hat off and
then he ruShes to the newspaper and
puts in his advertisement. When the
dull season gets along and there is no
trade and he wants to sell goods so
bad he can't pay his rent. He takes
out his advertisement. That is, some
of them do, but occasionally a level
headed merchant puts in a bigger one
and scoops all the business, while his
neighbors are making mortgages to
pay the gas bill. There are times
when you couldn't stop people from
buying everything in the store if YOU
planted a cannon behind the door.
and that's the time the advertisement
is sent out on Its holy mission. 1t
makes light work for the advertise
ment, for chalk sign on the sidewalk
could do all that was needed and have
a half holiday six days in thu week,
but who wants to favor an advertise
ment. They are built to do hard
work, and should be sent out in the
dull days when a customer has to be
knocked down with hard facts and
kicked insensihIe with bankrupt re-
auctions and dragged in with irresist-
ible slaughter of prices before he will
spend cent.
That's the aim and end of an adj
vertisement, my son, and if you ever
open store don't try to get them to
come when they are already sticking
out of the windows, but give them
your advertisement right between the
eyes in the dull season, and you will

How Mark Twain Works.

Mr.. Clemens divides bis year into
two parts that arenot exactly for work
and play respectively, but which differ
very much in the nature of their oc-
equations. From the LIST of June to
the middle of September, the whole
family, consisting of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clemens and three little girls, are at
Elmira, n. Y. They live there with
Mr.. T. w. Crane, whose wife is a
sister to Mrs. Clemens. A summer
house has been built for MIR. Clemens
within the Crane grounds, on high
peak, which stands 800 feet above
the valley that lies spread
out before it. The house is built
almost entirely of glass, and is mod
eled exactly on the plan of Mississ-
ippi steamboats, pilot house. Here,
shut off from all outside communica-
ton, Mr.. Clemens does the hard work
of the year, or rather the combining
and engrossing work of writing,
which demands continuous application
day after day. The lofty workroom
is some distance from the house. He
goes to it every morning about $50
o'clock and stays there until called to
dinner and by the blowing of the horn
about 5 o'clock. He takes no lunch,
or noon meal of any sort, and works
without eating, while the rules are
imperative not to disturb him during
this working period. His only reere-
alton is his cigar. He is an inveterate
smoker, and smokes constantly while
at his work and, indeed. all the time
from $50 in the morning to 1890 at
night, stopping only when at his
meals. A cigar lasts him about 40
minutes, now that he has reduced to
an exact science the art of reducing
the weed to ashes. So ne smokes
from 10 to 20 cigars every day. Some
time ago he was persuaded TO stop
the practice, and actually went Il year
and more without tobacco; but he
found himself unable to carry along
important work which he undertook,
and it was not until he resumed
smoking that he could do it. Since
then his faith in his cigar has not
wavered. Like other American
smokers, Mr.. Clemens is unceasing in
his search for a really satisfactory
cigar at really satisfactory price,
and, first and last, has gathered a
good deal Of experience in the pur-
suit. 1t is related that, having en-
tertained a party of gentlemen one
winter in Hartford, he gave to each,
Just before they left the house, one of
new sort of cigar he was trying to
believe was the object of his search.
He made each guest light it lefore
starting. The next morning he found
all that he had given away lying on
the snow besides the pathway across
his lawn. Each smoker had been
polite enough to smoke until he got
out of the house, but every one on
gaining his liberty had yielded TO the
instinct of self preservation and
tossed the cigar away, forgetting that
it would be fonnd there by daylight.
The testimony of the next morning
was overwhelming, and the verdict
against the new brand was accepted.
