Female Beauty.

'The beauty of the female figure, J"
says Leigh Hunt, Consists in being
gently serpentine." Stiffness is utter
" ungraceful. The movements of an
unconscious child are the perfection of
grace; they are easy, unstudied, natur-
al. The throat should he round and
pillar like. The waist should be twice
the size of this 'tower of ivory'-not,
as fashion has too often made it, about
the same size The shoulders should
be sloplng and not too broad; neither
should they be too narrow, but occu
by that soft and rounded mean that
is offered i'll the Venus OF Milo. The
figure should be, above all, easy. Too
small Il waist is an actual defOrmlty,
and young ladies who are foolish
enough to imagine that waist eieh
teen inches is lovely should bear in
mind that the famous statue of the
Venus de Medici, the acknowledged
highest type OF female beauty, meas
ures twenty-seven inches. The hips
should be high in q woman and wide;
the feet small, but in due proportion
to the height of the figure; a high in
step is beautiful, and a following OF
the sole is considered by the Arabs
mark thigh birth, The arm is seldom
sufficiently developed in a woman of
fashion to reach the standard of CLASH
cal beauty; she does not use her limbs,
particularly her arms, sufficiently
to give them the muscular growth
OF which they are capable. The arm
should have q round and flowing out
line, with no sharpness at the elbow;
it should taper gently down to small
wrist.

Pluck in PetticOatS.

just now Bette Travis is the talk Of
Texas. The frontiers of that State have
produced many women Of dauntiess
courage, but Bette in her way, has
surpassed them all.
This girl is beautiful blonde, SYM
metrical as 1.-The Greek slave charged
to her pink finger tips with electricity,
and as wild and fearless as an Amazon.
in some unexplained way Bette got
into trouble in Hunt County, and the
minions of the law made an attempt -
arrest her. She stood her ground with
six-shooter, and kept the officers at a
safe distance until she succeeded in eff
fecting her escape. She sought home
with her relatives near Bairdstown, but
they proved quarrelsomc. and she found
it necessary to draw q pistol and drive
them into the next county. For this a
constable tried to arrest her, but she
got the drop on him with Winchester
rifle and then rode off to pastures
new The high-spiritcd damsel was
next heard of in the Indian Ter
ritory. There she was charged with
violating the revenue laws, a..d
determined effort was made to
secure her capture. Miss Bette was
equal to the emergency. She donned
mans suit of apparel, and, arming
herself with q double barreled shot gun
and a revolver, terrorized all the OIL
GERS and settlers until she made her
way to Red river. The ferryman de-
clined to carry her over without pay,
but the girl took aim at his head and
persuaded him to land her on the other
Side
Such careers are generally as brief as
they are brilliant. A deputy sheriff f.
nally captured poor Bette Travis near
Paris He found the girl roaming the
woods like a vcritable Ophelia, babbling
uninteligible nonsense. and adorning
herself with wreaths and wild flowers
Fortunately the deputy had sense
enough to see that he was dealing with
lunatic instead Of desperate. He
treated his prisoner kindly and turned
her over TO the State Lunatic Asylum.
Texas now feels n sense of relief. For
a long time il has been u question
whether Texas would take Bette or
Bette take Texas. atlanta Constitu-

Getting Into Bed Without Awak-
ing His Wife.

On q certain occasion Ferguson was
vending his uncertain way homeward,
sorely troubled in his mind over the
curtain lecture he knew was in store
for him, and casting about for some
means of evading it. Suddenly a
bright idea was evolved from his be-
fuddled brain. He would slip quietly
into the house and get into bed with
out awaking his wife. Accordingly he
carefully undres5ed in the lower hall,
stole gently up stairs and crept into
bed with his face turned toward the
outside. He mentally congratulated
himself upon his success thus far and
went to sleep. When he awoke in the
morning he dal ed not look at his wife,
and after lying still for few minutes,
and not hearing any noise from her,
he concluded she was still asleep. lie
then determined to rise very quietly,
carry his clothes into the hall, dress
there, and 90 down town to business
without waiting for breakfast. He
was successful in this, and meeting
the colored servant girl down stairs,
he said
eliza, you can tell your mistress |
expect to be very busy to-day, and
therefore | didn't stop to eat break
fast with her this morning"

miles further from the sun than he
was when in perihelion in 1850. Those
who have faith in the theory that tho
planets have an agency in the production
of the sun spot cycle believe that the pres
ent lessening OF sun spots is partly due to
the greater distance of this gigantic planet
from the sun. The most reliable astrono-
mers reject this view of the case. but many
years must pass before any theory con
corning the sun may be considered as es-
| tablished.
Uranus is evening star. The notew orthy

that takes place, he will be left to move
