Mountain Climbing.

K. j. Burdette n the Brooklyn Eagle
One mountain particularly desired to climb.
1t is a splendid mass of rock, treeless, high and
promising an outlook of 10000 or 10000
miles from its summit. Viewed from our camp
it doesn't look SO bad. With me, to wish is to
will, and to will is to do some easy things. 1

Don't worry, my son, don't worry. Don't

Night Life and Character.

FROM the Waterman.
One night often destroys whole life The
leakage OF the night keeps the day forever
empty. Night is sins harvest time. More sin
and crime are committed in one night than in
all the days fthe week. This is more emphati-
caly true in the city than the country. The
street lamps, like file of soldiers with torch in
h;tnd, stretch away i'll long lines on either side
walk; the gay cOlored transparencies are abIaze
with attractions the saloon and billiard halls
are brilliantly Illuminated; music sends forth
It's enchantment; the gay company begins to
gather to the haunts and houses OF pleasure;
the gambling dens af1ame with palatiai
splendor; the theaters are wide open; the mills
OF destruction are grinding health, honor, hap
plness and hope out OF u thousand lives. The
city under the gasight is not the same as under
Gods sunlight. Night lite in our cities is
IL dark problem whose depths and abysses
ana Whlrlpoois make US start back with
horror. All night long tears are falling,
blood is streaming. Young men tell me how
and where you spend your evenings, and will
write you a chart OF your character and final
destiny, with blanks to insert your Names 1t
seems 10 me an appropriate text would be-
Nv atchman, what OF the night?" Policeman,
pacing thy beat, what OF the night? What are
the young men OF the city doing at night? Who
are their associates? What are their habits?
mere do they go in, and what time do they
come out? Policeman, would the night life Of
young men commend them to the confidence
OF their employers? Would it be to their credit?
Make a record OF the nights OF one week. Put
III the morning papers the names OF all young
men, their habits and hauntS that are ON the
streets for sinful pleasure. Would there not be
shame and confusion? Some would not dare to
go To their places OF business; some would not
dare to come home at mig hit; some would leave
the city; some would commit suicide Remem-
Der, young men, that in the retina of the ALL

The Morning Bath.

The morning BATH or tub, as it is often called
is eminently suited for the constitution OF every
one, young or old, unless exceedingly delicate.
Ii you have not been in the habit of INDUCING
in this luxury, do not advise you TO begin the
habit of matutinal cold water bathing all at
once The tepd soap bath will in nine cases
out of ten suit young girls better. and they will
not have taken dozen morning baths of this
kind before they become sensible of an increase
In the appetite, in strength and in good spirits,
and in the capablity of enjoying life and every
thing Of good that is in this life. By the use OF
the soap bath, too, the complexion gradually
becomes more clear and delicate, the foseate
hueS of health begin to bloom on the cheeks
and the skin is rendered as soft and plant as
that of little child. This bath, too, causes the
eye to become beautifully clear, and know of
nothing else that will do this.
Now what is it you require in order to render
TINS bath OF mine quite luxury as we'll as an
invigorator OF bot mind and body? Why, the
soap bath is simple in the extreme. In you r
dressfng-room you have cold, soft water and q
sponge, probably placed there over night, so
that 1t is in the morning of the same tempera.
ture as the air; then you have a nice soft
Turkish washing glove and piece of plain cas-
tile or ivory soap-not scented, that were dam
gerous to health; Them standing before a basin
of hot water, the whole body is quickly Iath-
cred and rubbed thoroughly. This ought not
10 occupy more than say three minutes, and
need not take more than a minute and a half
A moderately coarse towel should be used and
the skin should be thoroughly dried. Remem-
Der that the towel must not be rough enough
TO 1rrltate the skin, but only to produce 8
pleasant glow; remember, too, that there must
be no dawdling over the bath-di,wdle as much
as you please while dressing, but battle with
JudiCious celebrity; and remember, thirdly that
you must never neglect to wet the head with
cold water, else disagreeable sensations will be
the result.
The bath Is to be taken on an empty stomach
and Immediately after getting out OF bed. The
slight shock caused by the cold water will be
succeeded with feelings very delightful indeed
feelings which might describe if chose, but
Will not, as want you to experience them.
There are sponge baths and plunge baths,
and shower baths, all OF which may be taken
at home; but of all forms OF household bath
Ing commend me to the one have just tried
To describe. In cold weather, may tell you,
great advantage will be found from drying
and dressing in front OF a fire. Having dressed
and had breakfast eaten, 1 trust, leisurely,
nan an hours brisk walking will do all the
effect of the bath and tends to raise the spirits
and cause everything TO appear Colour de rose
during the rest of the day.

How to Swim.


In nine cases out OF ten, Mr.. Sundstrom saws
boy who wants to make q first-class and scIeu-
tiflc swimmer should begin by forgetting what
he already knows, so as TO learn over again in
the right way. The first thing to master is the
breast stroke. That is the stroke which frogs
use, and always have used, and it seems to be
the natural way OF swimming. Initiate a frog

He believed some of his researches might be

Very DipIomatic Young woman.

From the Pttsburg Dispatch.
There was diplomacy and presence of mind
shown in the case OF the young lady who sat in
an a!cove at an evening party with bright,
young military man, her little niece ON her
knee to play propriety. Suddenly the company
is electrified by the exclamation of the child:
kiss me, too, Aunt Alice.
But the sudden shock Is succeeded by feel
Ing OF relief as Aunt Alice calmy replies:
You should not say, Kiss me, too dear: you
should say, Kiss me twice."

Madame SiissOn'S Marriage.

RICH COSTUMES AT THE WEDDING, FOR GOING
AWAY AND FOR STATE.
From the London Graphic.
Although no official intimation of the fact will
be made until after the religious wedding at
Madrid in september, we understand that the
civil marriage OF Madame Chris tine Nilsson and
the Count Casa de Miranda has already been
celebrated in London, in the presence of the
Spanish and Swedish ministers. The Queen OF
Spain has sent as wedding present diamond
and pearl brooch, Her Majesty the Queen has
given an autograph and portrait, and the
Rothscnlld family nave sent u pair OF brown
thoroughbred carriage horses and massive
silver dessert service. The bride is 43 and the
bridegroom 40; while the count has already a
daughter 20 years old, whom Madame Nilsson
some time ago adopted. King Oscar of
Sweden and other royalties have sent letters of
congratuiatIOn Altnous ir- ~ rfrtfv a mus-

glad OIL some brief description OF the rousseau

yellow, and with gold buttons bearing the
