Matthew Arnold writes from America

Matthew Arnold writes from America
TO the London Times that if you weigh
instead of count opinions in this II
try the balance opposes Gladstone's
Irish policy. BY weighing opinions
Mr.. Arnold undoubtedly means taking
the statements of the Fields, the Laliers,
the Whitridges and other millionaires
who are now entertaining him at that
most exclusive and aristocratic summer
town, Lennox, Mass, the worst place
for anglomania in America. There is
no doubt but a few aristocratic and
snobbish people in the New England
states lick the boots of the British aris-
tocracy, but they are only a few, and
do not represent the opinions of the
great mass of the American people.

Article 1856 of the Mexican penal code
provides that any crimes that may be
committed on the territory Of a foreign
state by a foreigner against
MeAicans, may be punished in Mexico.
In conformity with the laws of the
country" Under this law a citizen of
the United States if found travelling in
Mexico is liable to arrest on n charge
of having committed n crime in any
state against a Mexican.
A more monstrous proposition has
not been put forward since the days Of
the robbcr barons of the middle ages.
The United States cannot afford TO adj
NIT the legality Of that article. No
citizen of the United States is safe in
Mexico while such n law is in force.
Now is the time to settle the matter
oncc for all.

Henry Watterson Is one Of the most

musical critic. can write g brilliant edit
Orial on the spur of the moment, and has
the capacity for an immense amount Of
work He is almost blind, and the sight
of one eye is entirely gone. The other is
very near sighted, and when he writes or
reads he gets his head very close to the
paper. Much of his reading has to be done
for him, and his wife assists him great
deal in this way, He has an amaDuensis
in writing at night. He uses in his own
writing thick glazed paper and u quill
pen, and ne writesa scrawl almost as Aard
to read as that of Greeley. Special print
ers have to be kept in the office who cam
read his copy, and his manuscript is often
chopped up after it has been set up and
carried about as a curiosity, When Henry
Watterson reads he uses magnifying:
glass. When he works he takes off his
coat and goes at it with vim. He is
bundle of nervous activity, He thinks
fast, goes on the trot and steps hard. He
has fits Of laZiness. in which he writes no
nothing. At such times he chats with his
friends and enjoys himself socially. He
likes good dinner, and can play good
game Of poker, though he enjoys the game
for the excitement and not for the money
involved. He has lectured some and very
successfully. He talks well, holds his
hands at his side as he speaks, and one Of
his favorite gestures is throwing back
his head and brushing up the lock Of hair
which falls down upon his forehead. He
has written some books. and he once said
that he started out in life as writer of
romance, emulating Thackeray. His
working: habits in health were to
wake up about ten in the morning and
take a,cup of coffee in bed. He would
then write for two hours, after which he
would takea sponge bath, dress, and break
fast. This would be at l O'Clock. AT 3
be would go to the office, and look over
the organization of the paper. At 10
o'clock at night he would return and run
the paper Through to press. He has worked
too fast aud eaten too fast during his life
time. Att bimes he has gone for two days
without sleep, and during the first three
months when he was building up his pa
per, he did not average four hours of sleep
out of the tsventy-four Still he may live

Courtesy ag Home.

One is foxcibly reminded, in going from
place to- place, how small and seemingly
trivial often are the things which so to
make or mar the comfort and peace of
home In some households there is a gen
uine good will and kindness which only
works out half it's mission, for the reason
that it does not express Itself in little cour-
tesies of speech and action. These are
more important than some of our busy
men and women may realize. The ready
';thank you," If you please" etc.. at
table and elsewhere, the quiet "excuse
me-" when obliged to. pass directly before
or incon9eniently near another; the loving
.sgood-night" and CHEEKY ''good-morn-
ing" although little things, are helps in
making happy home. Courtesy is but
the ready overflow of kindness and good
will to all, and is, therefore, but natural
expression which costs nothing, but which h
often cheers an aching heart and which
never fails to make home brighter and
more attractive to old and young.-[ne-

Paper of this kind and size had from
the thirteenth to the seventeenth CEN
tury. water-mark representing a fools
head, ornamented with Il cap and bells,
such as the testers Of the old nobility used
to wear. It has been intimated that the
idea was suggested by corruption of the
Italian name for this size of paper-folio- o.
capo, meaning folio-sized sheet. But this
is not probable, as such all error would
not have occurred except among those
speaking the English language. and this
paper was not made in England until
nearly the close OF the sixteenth century.

BORN UNDER BEAUTY STARS.
Favorable Signs and Their Effect on
the Human Face and Form.

the Human Face and Form.
Judging from the portraits, and com.
pairing them, it cannot but follow that
there must be a great difference of opin-
| ion as to Miss Jennie Chamberlain's
charms There was wide disagreement
as to those of Mrs. Langtry, and some
impulsive people almost came to blows
on the subject. But there must always be
this controversy and disagreement on the
subject OF what constitutes feminine
beauty. In many respects, as was said
by Nine. De Stael with regard to religion,
it is geographical question. What is a
crime in one part of the world-for in
stance the assassination of ones aged
parents-is the highest act of piety in
another. So, very lovely woman in
Timbuctoo or among the Esquimaux,
would be regarded as the most hideous of
frights in Mayfair or Fifth avenue. The
ideal in some countries is, as we know
from travellers fat, and that belle is most
admired who is stoutest.
There are, nevertheless, just as great
differences of opinion among the civilized
land produces all things considered the
health and strength are considered in their
tions who do not like this beefinesG of as
pect, as they rather coarsely put it, but
who prefer the deiicacy OF feature and
form of American girls. The greatest Of
professional beauties among the ancients
was we may presume, Helen of Troy, but
it is said that her nose ran in a gentle and
even line from her forehead, and that
there was no break at the usual point be-
tween the eyes. This was considered her
greatest mark of loveliness, While now
such a feature would be looked upon as
g. deformity.
The astrological idea is that every
body's appearance is Influenced and even
determined by the positions OF the plan
cts and the Zodiac at conception and
said to rise both at the first and the sec
ond. The sign that produces the purest
and best type Of beauty is Libra. The
features are exquisitely moulded, COM
plexion fair, the eyes blue, the hair
brown or chestnut and The figure tail.
Aquarius comes next. Under this gem
orally the person is a most pronounced
blonde and the form stouter. After this
follows Taurus, under which either light
or dark persons may be born. Generally
they have large and beautiful eyes, show
ing great deal of the white. Not a few
women came into the world Influenced by
Cancer, while Bisces produces the type Of
females described in Byron's Dudu-
handsome, lazy and sensual. With re-
gard to the planets, the loveliest women
are born under Venus. They have spark

mOdeAty,

Nothing is more amiable that true
modesty, and nothing is more contempti-
BILE than false. The one guards virtue,
the other betrays it. True modesty is
ashamed to do anything that is repug-

nlodesty is ashamed to do anything that
is opposite to the humor of the company.
True modesty avoids everything that is
