Mixing Her Metaphors.

The venerable Aunt Becky, who lives
away up in the country, is famous for her
piety, and attends all the prayer meetings
at the village meeting house. She never
fails to put in a fervent prayer, which
ayails just as much, being "prayer of the
righteous" as II Aunt Becky did not con-
tinually mix her metaphors.
The other night at prayer meeting the old
lady inserted this sentence into her prayer :;
"0h, Lord, I'm a poor wanderin' sheep,
and think it's high time for me to pull for
the shore ~ Boston Record.

The II. ana O.'s Through Line.

AS soon as the slight hitch In the negotia-
tions between the B. and o. and Jersey
Central railroads is settled, trains will be
put on between Washington and New York
to run over the B. and O's new line. Ac-
cording to the Baltimore SUMS New York
correspondent, the Baltimore and Ohio
wants the contract to last not longer than
five years, while the Jersey Central wants
1t to last ten years. The Baltimore and
Ohio wants to pro rate on all business after
deducting terminal charges Of twenty cents
q ton. The Jersey Central wants to pro
rate on more mileage than the Baltimore
and Ohio is willing to allow. 1t is believed
that a settlement of these differences will
be easy. The plans for the Arthur Kill
bridge from New Jersey to Staten Island
have been drawn up and are awaiting the
approval OF Secretary Endcott. When
that is obtained the work Of construction
will proceed rapidly. Mr.. Erastus Wiman,
head of the Staten Island Rapid Transit
Company, whose road will be used by the
B. and o. in crossing Staten Island upon
the completion Of the Arthur XIII Bridge,
expresses qualification at the temporary ar
rangement made by the b. and o. with the
Jersey Central. 1t will enable the former
road to build up a traffic with New York,
he says, that will make 1t possible for It to
enter Staten Island later with through
business established.

Pretty Hands.

Various causes combine to make the
hands very coarse and rough. Gu
riously enough, less attention is given
to the hands than to the face. although
they really require more care on ac-
count of the hard work they are called
upon TO do. And yet white and del
icate hand is very charming and worthy
of quite as much attention as the face,
if not more. Even a cook may have
less coarse hands, if she will, by al
ways using glycerine or honey after
washing her hands, and by never using
coarse yellow soap, but little bran or
oatmeal, which will clean the hands
quite as we'll "a soap and keep them
soft at the same time, whatever may be
the amount of work she may have to
do and to whatever exposure to heat
and cold the hands may be subjected
These same precautions may be adopted
by women who occupy themselves with
any rough work in the house, and,
moreover. they should always wear
gloves, which will, more than anything,
keep the hands soft and clean, and thus
dispense with the necessity of too fire.

Dear feet that roam.

When fond ones meet him at the door.

Standard Cattle Company, at Ames,
Nebraska. About 5000 acres of land,

with q narrow rim OF silk embroidery
around the neck. They absorb all moist

week, or every day II preferred, and
keep the corset and cotton or linen
combination from contact with the skin
They are not so much to wash as q
pocket handkerchief. and add no APP
preciable or unpleasant degree of
warmth to the clothing. They are, in
fact, boon to the majority, and should
be so considered, for, though not an
incumbrance, they are still protective,
and preserve the chest and lungs from
slight exposure and incidental changes
of temperature. Wedo not sufficiently
appreciate the modern tendency to
adapt the best thing TO the largest num-
Der. This availability renders the good
thing double blessing.
1t is quite time that women under
stood that there are certain parts of
their attire which should not be sub
ject to the law of fashion and change.
Underwear, for example, should simply
cover the body-not enlarge, depress
or compress it. The finest French un-
derwear, excepting skirts worn next
the dress, follows this rule. Even hens
are not allowed, and there are no
gathers. The garment is curved in Mt
the sides and center, the edges are
hand, embroidered, and the fit is per-
feet. Women who buy underwear made
at slop-shops simply because it is
cheap, without regard to its form or
style, sometimes wearing it gathered
in, sometimes loose, sometimes shaped,
can never have their dresses fitted with
precision or elegance. The corset is
even more important; whatever it is, it
ought to be OF the same cut and style,
the same depth over the hips, the same
lines inclosing the bust. The modern
corset is anything but an object of
terror. 1t yields a necessary support
to the feshy part of woman's figure
and serves as q flexible frame u on
which to build the dress. 1t is scien-
tifically cut and carved to the body
and supplied with elastic side or cores,
which adapt it to delicate women and
growing girls. There are summer cor
sets of transparent lace-like fabric.
traversed by slender, plant lines of
whalebone, forming the frame, which
are luxury even to look at and may
be worn on the hottest day with ease
and comfort. But there are still
straight, shapeless, heavily weighted
stays chine-made, coarsely corded,
and charged with steel bars, that quite
alter the figure of the wearer, who per-
haps thinks she is improved because
she is martyred IN wearing them or
selects them because they are n few
cents cheaper. This is self-murder for
less inducement than would be accepted
by the commonest assassin and destroys
the:effect of the finest costume.

A BROOKLYN newspaper has this gos-
sip about ex-senator Conkling: @Mr.
Conklmg speedily makes h mself dis
liked wherever he goes, but the fact
does not appear to disturb the ex-Sen-
ator. He is member of the exclusive
old New York Club, and takes most of
his meals there. The club is largely
composed of old men, and some of
them, with time on their hands, are
wont to be amiable toward Mr.. Conk-
ling. There are mighty few garrulors
old men whom Conkling can abide, and
he has the knack of sitting down on q
person in very decisive manner when
he feels like it. The consequence is
that there are a number of New York
club men who are prone to consider
him with other than pleasant thoughts.
He is a great hand to say cutting things
with malice prepense,' and in his
club as we'll as in the courtroom men
have felt the sting of his words. When
he was living at the Fifth Avenue
L otel he succeeded in getting himself
most cordially hated Ivy all the en-
ployes on account of his dictatorial
manners, and 1 am informed on the
best authority that the proprietors were
greatly reioiced when he went away.
He kept them in hot water all the time
by his fault-fnding. But whatever
else may be said OF Roscoe Conkling,
he does not lack for business in his
profession. His law practice is bring
ing him i'll s7S,oOO year. He can
anyway save so. 900 year out of it."
