Civilizations,

It's curious thing, this thing we call
civilization. We think it an affair of
epochs and nations. It's really an affair
OF individuals. One brother will be civ
ilized and the other barbarian. I've
occasionally met young girls who were
so brutally, insolently, woefully indiffer-
ent to the arts which make civilization
that they ought to have been clothed in
the skins of wild beasts and gone about
barefoot with clubs over their shoulders.
Yet they were OF polite origin, and their
parents at least respectful OF the things
that these young animals despised.-

The milliner blushed with shame at this
new instance of female weakness. ''Do
you know who originated high-heeled

1t was the Marquse de Pompadour. She
was so small, and it was the fashion to be
tall, that she invented high heels in fit Of
desperation. The lady also originated the
black patches which were so fashionable in
the French court, and which people sup
posed to-day that the ladies wore in order to
heighten the brilliancy of their complexion.
They were thus simply in imitation of La
Pompadour. She had an aggravating pim-
pie on her cheek. All her efforts were un-
availing. She covered the offending growth
with black plaster and set the fashion.
Anne of Austria introduced the fashion of
short sleeves. She was not a beautiful
woman, but her arms were magnificent, and
in the same spirit with which Katisha eX-

her arms. Short sleeves were almost un-

could do nothing else with her hair, as there
was so much of it. But her ladies initiated
her, and actually bought false hair in order
to reach proper standard of perfection.

trary. The sacrifice Is unnecessary, too,
for she might have taken out of her self
filling purse ten times as much as her sales
of flowers yielded, and contributed the
money direct without missing it. Of
course, she had the satisfaction of feeling
that she was an object of admiration, and

pick a fortune-telling envelope out of a

''Will you take a spray, sir?" and then,
accepting silence as consent, she would

about the war with Prussia prompted by her
fervent Catholicism, that would not suffer
her to brook the spectacle OF the rise and
prosperity ofa Protestant power. 1t was she
that drove by her narrow-minded eXactiOns

well-known fact and one not denied by
the most ardent Bonapartists, that the poor
boy entered the British army and undertook
that fatal campaign into Zululand 10 escape
from the intolerable existence to which his
mothers narrow-mindedness and jealous
fears had condemned him. She denied him
an income sufficient to enable him to main
tain the appearance necessary to young
man who associated on terms of equality
with the princes of the blood royal of Eng
land. He was not able even to keep sec
ond horse or to take rooms in London dur
ing the season. Often, when he was in
vited to some one of the ducal or prlncely
homes OF England, he was forced to decline
the Invitation because he could not afford to
pay the fees to the servants. His mothers
dream was to keep him constantly at her
side, going to mass and confession daily,
and passing the remainder of the time be-
tween prayers and conspiracies. No youth,
not born monk by nature, could long have
submitted to such a regime, and surely not
one who had been born and bred the heir to
throne, and in whose veins flowed the
fiery blood of the impetuous Hortense

arrived at last; the young man broke from
his leading strings and rushed out into the
world, only to meet death face to face, and
to consolidate the republic of France be-
meath the spears of horde of savages.

THE LITTLE ONES ASLEEP.

They sleep in sheltered rest
Like helpless birds In the warm nest,
On the castles southern side,
Where feebly comes the mournful roar
Of buffeting wind and surging tide
Through many wing and corridor.
Full en- their window the moons ray
Makes their chamber bright as day.
1t shines upon the blank white walls,
And on the snowy pillow falls,
And on two angels heads doth play
Twined to each Other-the eyes closed,
The lashes on the cheeks reposed
Round each brow the cap close-set
Hardly let's peep the golden hair;
Through the soft-opened lips the air
Scarcely moves the coverlet.
One little wandering arm is thrown
AT random on the counterpane,
And often the fingers close i'll haste
AS If their baby owners chased
The butterflies again.
Matthew Arnold.
