THE BALL.
Action Of the Inauguration Executive Committee
Relative to Tickets.

Relative to Tickets.
The action of the Executive Committee of
the Inauguration Ceremonies at Washington.
in designating the Baltimore and Ohio ticket
Offices in the principal cities East and West as
special repositories for the sale of Inauguration
Ball tickets cannot but prove of great dvan-
tage as heretofore tickets could not be obtained
for the ball until after arrival at the National
Capital. Everybody knows where the B. &
o. offices are in the leading cities: SO Clark IT.
in Chicago, 5 n High ST. in Columbus, a73
Walnut st. in Cincinnati, 1876 S. Illinois st. in
indianapolis, 101 N. 4th ST. in ST. Louis, 152 w.
Baltimore st. in Baltimore. Letters relative to
the bali tickets addressed to the b. g. O. ticket
agent at any of the addresses given, or TO ticket
agent b. & 0. Office Louisville, Wheeling,
GAINESVILLE, Newark, Sandusky, Cumberland or
Frederick, will receive prompt attention. At
the offices named, those who desire can pur-
chase the ball tickets same time as they do
their railroad tickets, while those who NAV
want them as souvenirs do not have to send to
Washington for them. Preparations for the
Inauguration ceremonies are being carried for
ward with the determination to make them
memorable. The Baltimore & Ohio, as the
only direct line from the West into Washing
ton, has extended e"ery facility to the execu-
tive and other committees in SO shaping mat
tiers as to bring about complete success in every
particular. The B. & o. has announced the
lowest rates ever made for an Inauguration, in
most instances les than half fare for the round
trip, with limit ON the tickets of the most
satisfactory length. BY the b. & O.'s recently
put on fast-train schedule, its noted limited
trains make the run through to Washington,
from all points, froLa enc TO six hours quicker
than any of the limited trains on other lines
Not nickel extra is charged for the fast time,
which is directly contrary to the rule followed
by other lines with their limited trains. for
upon them double fare is the only way one can
travel, and must take sleeping ears through,
whether wishing to do so or not. On the b. &
o. one exercises the good old American custom
of going as he peases. Trains run through
solid, no change of cars Of any class, and pay
only for what is asked for-not a cent more, no
matter what may be the custom on other lines
All these things are well worth considering
before starting.

Mission ana influence OF Dress.
lEllen Bliss Hooker in Good Housekeeping. 81
So long as the world stands there will be
envious women, women who will make their
own lives failure, wreck domestic happi-
ness, cause financial embarrassment, ETC.,
etc, by their inoriinats love of di play in
dress This touches pretty nearly the social
evil problem, and also suggests one reason
why so many young men choose to remain
unmarried.
1t therefore dcvolves upon all true and
sensible women to do what they can to
check these tendencies Of our time. We can
not make one rule OF dress for all
classes Of women, and no woman should be
judged, or misjudgei, by her style in dress
Conscience should have some what to do in
this matter. and therefore we lay down this
principle, viz: No woman has a right to
adorn herself in a manner which shall cause
unpleasant criticism, either as to herself,
personally, or those upon whom she is de-
pendent for her laiment
Mani women have Independent incomes;
Others have relatives who make gifts Of .
pretty costume 10 a less-favored friend. and
we do well 10 lie careful Of one another's
feelings IN this matter There is so much
that Is beautiful in dness and fashion allows
US TO secure such delightful harmony Of
color AMI design, with SO much of liberty
as well, that there would seem to be no
reason why every sensible woman sh oud
not be neatly and suitably dressed, accord
ing 10 her station in life
When mothers talk less of dress before
thei: little children, when school girls have
less time To gossip over the cost and variety
Of clothss, when young iadie, are cordially
welcomed in social circles for what thy are
in, and of, themselves, and not for what
they wear, when wives cease to annoy their
husbands because they can not dress a well.
or better. than SINE other mems wives; in
short, when conscience AMI common sense
control this whole matter, the ideal dress
will be in vogue, and, probably. that when
will usher in tho Millennium"

WHAT IS NECESSARY.
The President Demands that " Offensive PA
sanslip" Must be Proved.

The President Demands that "Ohensive Parti-
sanship" Must be Proved.
New York Herald Dispatch
In speaking of the appointments Of pres-
dental postmasters made, Postmaster Gen.
eral Villas said that, in addition to the re-
movals for offensive partisanship, there were
as many more cases, in which, after consider
alton, it had been decided not to remove the
postmasters. In those cases, although evil
dence of offensive partisanship had been pre-
sented, it was regarded as insufficient, the
president not being disposed to seize the
opportunity for removal, but to require the
existence Of partisanship to be shown as an
undeniable fact
As showing the spirit of fairness and deli
cacy that has animated the president in deal
ing with the presidential postmasters, the
postmaster general said that there were eigh-
teen such presidential appointments made
by President Arthur in the last days
OF his term, in cases where vacan-
cies had occurred, and which had been
confirmed by the Senate, but no COM
missions had issued. In all of these cases,
as matter of legal right, President Cleve-
land could have made appointments, be-
cause the act of appointment had not been
completed by the issuance of commissions
But he thought it only consderate and fair
that he should give the commissions in COM
pletion Of the act of appointment, and it had
been done in all classes but one, and in that
case there had been a resignation by the ap-
pointee before the commission iss ued.

Processing 10 weascn the virus BY Transmit

Protesting 10 weascn the virus by Transmit
ting II Through Caiscs.
DIR. Wesley Miller, who ss long ago as July
%, 1873 published in New York a paper in
which he advocated the use OF the attenuated
virus of the disease to prevent tubercular
consumption and cure 1t In its earliest stages
is about to prepare vaccine matter to use in pre-
venting cholera. When asked how he would
do it, he said:
~ will take piece Of the tissues Of de-
the skin of healthy calf This will give
IL to the calf, and, when the disease has ad.
vanced sufficiently, piece OF its tissue will
be put into second calf, and so on for a
third and perhaps fourth. The object
sought is TO get n virus sufficiently attenu.
ated The virus from the last calf will give
man modified form of cholera, just as tn G
smallpox virus gives man modified form
of smallpox. The modified form will be
neither contagious nor dangerous to human
life, but it will prevent an attack OF choleri
Just az common vaccination prevents small
| pox.
How does it do that2'

l indus in which the cholera feeds Until tha
indus is renewed by the lapse of years tn

Z" 1t is said that the Spanish government
| has prohibited incubation"
"That was proper thing to do. The In
oculation was done with virus taken from

| to do is to vaccinate with virus passe
through the tissue of calves, which Is yer
different thing. The disease propagated b
