Personal Beauty.

New York Sun: II see that some of
the beautiful ladies present are smiling at
the imperfect specimen of personal beauty
before them" said DR.. f.. 4. Wood of
Pittsburg yesterday afternoon to the New
York Academy Of Anthropology, by way
Of introduction to his lecture on Per
sonal Beauty At this the ladies smiled
the more. DR.. Wood is a tall, spare man,
with very narrow features and a long
goatee He is not beautiful.
The burden of his lecture was the i'm
portant influence of food and feeding on
beauty.
1T is largely a question of food" he
said. The matter Of physical charms is
settled in the kitchen. Food and feed
ing have as much to do with personal
beauty as heredity has with character.
Each one of you by giving proper atten.
ton TO these matters may bid defiance to
fate and hesedity itself.
There are many beautiful men and
women among Americans, but there is
not as many rs there should be. Too
many are thin in flesh. Toe many have
peaked jaws, with loss of many teeth
and u~nsoundness among those that re.
main. No human being can be beauti
full without perfect teeth. natural OIL
artificial, and / prefer the natural
Square jaws are an indication of strength
and power. All men who have beer
leaders, good or bad, have had massive
square jaws"

no A LOVE
Tolstoi's Views OF Its Errors and
Illusions.

Il wish, said Count Tolstoi to the Pail
Mall Budgets representative, ito write a
novel, a romance, exposing a convention
al illusion OF romantic love. | have
already written it, but it must be turned
upside down and rewritten. 1t is too
much Of a treatise as il stands, and there
is not enough of action in it. My object
is to fill the reader with horror at the re.
suit OF taking romantic au serieux. The
end to which the whole story will lead
up will be the murder of a wife by her
husband. 1t will exhibit the deprivation
of married life by the substitution of
romantic love, "A fever born Of carnal
passion, for Christian love, which
is born of identity of sentiment.
similarity Of ideal, the friendship
OF the soul. Upon that love, Christian
love, the love of brother and sister. if the
carnal love can be grated it is well, but
the former, not the latter, is the first CON
dition of happy married life. Herein
the peasants teach us n lesson. They re-
gard what we regard as romantic love as
a disease, temporary and painful and
dangerous. With them no marriage is
made under its influence. Anything is
better than that. The Herrstaten, who
marry by the drawing of lots, are wiser
than we. Our system is the worst pos.
sible, and the whole Of our wedding
ceremonial, and the honeymoon, the
feasting and the incltement to carnality
are directly calculated to result in The
deprivation Of matrimOny. Not in one
case out of a hundred does romantic love
result in a lifelong happy unicn. The
young people whose lives lie in diferen,
orbits are drawn together by THU
evanescent passion. They marry. For
month they are happy-perhaps ever
hate each other for the rest Of Their
homage to the responsibilities by conceal
ing the truth from their n%eighbors. Il
must be 30. II Anna Karenina had mar
ried Leven she nus have abandoned hin
likewise. Romantic love is like opium
or hashish. The sensation is overpower
ing and delightful. But it passes. 1t il
not In human nature not to wish to renew
the experience. For this novelty is in
dispensable. So the wife betrays he,
husband and the husband is false to hi!
wife, and the world becomes one wild,
brothel. wish to open the eyes of al
to the real nature and the tragic con
sequences of this substitution of romantic
for Christian love. | see it clearly, oh
SO clearly; and when you see a thine
which no n else seems TO see you fee
you must gather all your forces, and de.
vote yourself to setting forth the truth al
you see it. This deprivation of marriage
is all because Christianity has been a
word and not 4 thing. 1t will, however,
be a reality again soon"

Among the first class passengers on a
steamer bound fer New Orleans the
other day was a pug, which was travel.
ing alone, and for whose transportation
S15 had been paid. The porter had been
subsidized to take care of the dog, quite
an easy matter, as PIGGY was the most
docile of his kind, generally stayed
put" and besides, was a favorite with
the passengers, whose society he finally
enjoyed without restraint on the hurri-
cane deck. On the last day at sea a cry
OF dismay suddenly arose f,om
the deck, and that dog be-
came the sole object of attention.
There was the pug, with the blue ribbon
around his neck and the highest of curls
in his tail, on the awning that stretched
to the deck below, his head pointed sea-
ward, slowly, but surely, slipping toward
the gulf of Mexico. He was a goner un-
less somebody reached him, for he could
not help himself. and if he moved a
muscle it would only accelerate his pro-
gress. There was a great scramble on
deck, and then, just as puggy's nose be-
gan TO project over the side, a passenger
wis had clambered over the rail caught
him firmly by the curl. and dragged him
back to safety. The news gave the
porter a severe shock, and PIGGY was
banished to the hold. where ne made the
J rest OF the journey in solitude.

n on behalf Of the government, who in
this enlightened age should have a posi-,
ton of honor in some museum. He lives
at Fort Gratot, is Is years old, and
couldn't tell what county, state or nation
he lives in. In what state do you liver
he WAS asked. Fort Gratiot," was the
candid reply. What county" Dunno"
"What river, lake or ocean is near Fort
GratiOt?" Dunno" He didn't know
who was governor of Michigan, or presi-
sent of the United States, but he did
know that there were prospects of a cold
winter, because the fur on beavers and
muskrats was unusually heavy, and that
his name was Peter McGerry.

Not only were the evidences Of poverty
something appalling in this Sunday fair,

spoke volumes on the lives they lived.

had lost the feminine pride of vanity
which leads them to bestow a thought
upon their personal appearance; strong
middle aged men whose love of drink
was apparent; mothers with babies in
their arms, but who looked old and
careworn enough to be grandmothers,
these prevailed in the crowd. And the
noise and the hustle, the tumult and bar
gaining, lasts till about 80, when things
resume a more weekday like tranquility.

! equal that figure by the time the ma
chinery Of a state government can be set
in operation. The rapid development of
the territory in every essential Of pros
perity is proof that its growth is likely to
be steady and OF a permanent character
and without the sudden ebb of population
sometimes seen in a mining country. 1t
is true that mining is, as il
has been, the leading pursuit, but
the mineral product is constantly
increasing. Ten years ago the annual
output was estimated az 81, 900, 900; now
it exceeds S31 900. coo. There is abund-
ant evidence, moreover, of "A rapid ad-
vance IN agricultural and kindred pur-
suits, and a liberal and intelligent pro-
vision for education, indicating
a healthy growth in all that

property is not taxed, but the assessed
value of other property mounts TO almost
$40, 900, 600, an increase of nearly 800 per
cent. in ten years. During the same
period the number of cattle mas increased
from 220, 600 to /, 800, 600, of sheep, from

most 9, 200, 600 acres of farming lands
have been taken up during the past three
years, showing that most Of its agricul-
tural development has been during that
brief period. 1t is claimed by Gov. Les
lie that the average yield per acre of
wheat, oats, Irish potatoes and cultivated
grasses in Montana during the year 1887
was o equalled by that of any other
territory or state in the union. AS with
most of these virgin countries, the posi-
bilities Of its development can only be a
matter of vague speculation and wonder.
The territory is especially rich in timber,
in splendid marbles, and inexhaustible
water supplies. Great stores of coal
await the future manufacturer. The
population is largely American, and
evinces that keen interest in public edu-
cation characteristic Of the race. Mon
