THE PRosPECrOR.

The Tales, Fortunes and Mfsf0r-
tunes OF Those who Have Fol.
lowed the Business.
Probably no business pursuit In the
United states has as much legend and ro-
nance connected with IL Is the vocation
Of mining. and 9 great many traditions are
extsnt In the mining regions in regard TO
fabulous locations Of unprecedented rich
ness. Many mythical legendary tales are
exploded by subsequent investigation,
while others Of them justify all that 10
predicted Of them. II is said by persons
we'll posted OF the mining statistics Of the
Coast, says IN exchange, that every dollar
in gold taken out on the Pacific Coast has
cost one dollar in labor. This conclu-
sion In fact il reached by reason Of the in
credible labor Of the prospectors running
sometimes thousands Of feet in bedrock
tunnels. and great labor in other branches
Of prospecting, and hnding nothing to re-
pay their pains. In some instances get
ting into the pay streak 9 great many feet
above the proper level TO secure drainage.
No harder working and more per-
severing people can be found In
the civilized world than the average
prospector. Many Of them worked for years
and years. breaking themselves down and
contracting diseases that are liable TO carry
them of TO premature graves, and still
they hope on almost against hope. They
frequently struggle on with credit 80 Inn
paired they can hardly get the village gro
Ger to let them have q ifty-pound sack OF
flour. Some OF them, when this strait is
.reckoned, &c. TO the bed Of n OF the old
covered up channels, and in Q few weeks
take out enough OF the shining yellow
metal 10 repay to them the unrequited
labor OF years. while others struggle on for
q lifetime almost, and like one OF the
shakesperian character, Idle and make no
sign"

A Very Tntere.ting Study.


A staymsker. asked by q reporter IL be
ever thought Of studying women's figures
with respect to their nstionalities. delivered
himself Of the following:
Yes. the study 10 an interesting one.
English women when they are young, have
the noblest figures, so far % / have OBJ
served, said the manufacturer, after Q
pause. " but they get corpulent and dow
seer-like after marriage, much sooner thar
american women, after which they may be
said to have NO figure at all. English
figures, when stout, than most other fash
ionables and seldom resort to tight lscing.
Mrs. Langtry is o superbly shaped woman,
say what they will, and is q fine specimen
OF English women In general, though / be-
lieve she is only half English, after all.
Among ~fashionables the French ladies are
apt to be spare to sorawniness, but they
have such Q natural talent for making up
and concealing their defects that il IL hard
to Judge of them. There are some pretty
figures among the Cuban and other West
Indian women, but they are short. age
rapidly. and soon grow dumpy; yet such
% have French maids manage to make
up well. Refined German and Irish ladies
have fine figures on an average. So do the
italian ladies. The few Holland and Bel
GUM ladies / have seen, are rotund and
essentially well built. The best shaped
woman, in every respect, who comes into
this store, is @ Hungarian, wife Of q must
clan In one Of our theater orchestras. Her
wsist, bust and shoulders are like sculp.
ture. She is tall, willowy and statuesque.
and her walk is the melody OF motion.
She doesn't walk at all in the ordinary
sense, but floats over the ground. Her
natural waist measure is % and she does
not lace down an inch below il. However,
English figures average best.
"You have not said anything about the
American ladies'" said the reporter.
81 reserved them for the last, for, as .
nationality, there is more to be said
against them. American fashionable
women, though inclined to frsgility, have
naturally excellent figures, but there are
no other women who 80 persistently de-
form and destroy what nature has given
them, through tight lacing and general
slsvish obedience to the absurdest freak Of
fashion. American women are the most
uncomfortable lacers in the world. But,
everything said and seen. the British
feminine figures are the best models"
