In all sweet flowers that dow

But ifmy lady smile
There Ia no Death at all;
The world is fair the while

"we must give all the nice, mode 1t girl
we know credit for Iot consciously en-
deavoring to catch husbands" says 6
writer in the Philadelphia Record. Ther
he moralizas in fine, true vein asfollows
-rIf men fall in love with them and desire
to marry them, and they ara the right sor'
Of men, and the girls can love in return
well and good-they marry, and hope tt
be happy ever after; but they will not rur
afsen MIN, or think in everything they say
or do: Can catch fish with this bait ?
at must, however, be confessed thai
there are girls who, instead Of making
themselves usefal and calmly resting IL
their maiden dignity, think only Of get
ting married, and use questionable meaul
to achieve their purpose. Forgetting thu
proverb, The more haste the less speed,
this sort Of girl not unfrequsrtly assumes
fast style of talk, manner and dress, II
order to make herself attractive to the op
posite sex. In doing so she makes gren
mistake. Fish may nibble at her bait
but they will not allow themselves to b
caught. A loud girl n ay attract attention
and have half an hour of popularity, bu
she is type of the short. sightedness OF bel
sex. Men of the bsser sort may amust
themselves with her, but no man worth
having would think Of marrying her.
There is q liberty that makes ri
free and q liberty that makes rs slaves,
and the girls who take the liberties will
modesty and speech and manner and who
cross over the boundary into masculine
territory are not more free, but more slay'
ish than before. And the appreciation o.
the men, which is the end in view, is lost
by the means taken to gain it. Whatever
men may be themselves, they like gentle,
ness. modesty and purity in oct and
thought in women. They want theil
wives to be better than Themselves"
'sHemming parties" are all the rage IN
Louisville. The invitations iseued are
square, and in one corner is needls run
through the paper. At recent affair o.
that kind there tine guests were requested
to present their thimbles at the door. Each
lady was presented with haud-painted
surah silk bag, In this little bag was
square of linen, with one end stitched,
The ladies finishing this work in the neat
est hems,itcbiug were awarded prizes
Sock. darning parties might create great
sensation.
Ball room costumes this winter, &C
Madame Fashion hath decresd, are to bt
artistically, daintily garnished up autumn
leaves, so true to nature in their imita
lions that ons can scarcely believe them tx
be only representations. Apple blossoms s,
50 natural that their sweet scent comes
Ger one as in dream, in long sprays viii
tastily loop black and colored tulles. The
ball dress will be further enhanced by sil
yer iligree trimming in leaves aud flow
ers, such as lilies, marguerites and too
lovely dogwood blossom au natural. Gill
will play a prominent part in all kinds o
novelties which are truly beautiful.
In the country golden rod is so p'enti
full that whole fields Of it are passed BY
unnoticsd, but society at Indianapolis i
talking of the favors given at reception
there the other afternoon: There wer'
clusters of these flowers tied with ribbon
of the same rich tint"
A fashion has come in which will be 6
boon to those who are slways losing gloves
says Paris letter. 1t is to have pair
that do not match. Shoes and st,ckingt
will follow the gloves. Iexpect this har
lequin style will extend to the dress, end
that then we shall get back to the Italian
Middle Age in respect to modes.
Here is list of the colors in which day
gowns are now made: Wistsria purple,
punch fame, peony, deerskin, Cordovs
leather, clover blossom, and Mephisto red
The gruys in use are powder, thunder
cloud, ser gull, dove, doTe's breast, mouse,
and pearl.
Pale girls can wear the new and fash
ionable shades of green, the olives, togrtat
advantage, and q green hat wonderfully
brightens girl who has but little color 10
her face.
No girl is now really fashio nable unless
she carries pocket bonbonniere. They
are of silver or oxydized, or even of gold,
and are ornamental with all sorts Of de-
sigus, including the lady's initials or
first name, but more often with design
of her favorite flower. These small round
aud square boxes cost from two to fifty
dollare. The tiny CONNECTIONS mostly used
in them are gum psstiles in different
favors, imported crystall'zed violets and
dragees, or "csndy pills" the latter
being very popular and coming different
coloIs, according to flavor, the brown
coffses, the yellow LINES and the purple
violet flsvors having the preference. The
swell girls carry these with them on sll
occasions, but especially to the theatre,
and they have been known to take them
10 church.
One of the most delightful social events
given in Wheeling fer some time occurred
On Tuesday evening at the Jewish gyms
zoeue, the occasion being Shaksspearean
recital By Mr., Hannibal A. Williams, OF
New York, who came tn Wheeling under
he patronage Of number Of prominent
,ibZens.
The audierca present was select ard re-
lined one and Mr.. Williams superb read
ing of "Julius Ca ar" was thor ougtly ap-
precisted, 1t is ps obable that the gentle
nan my return to Wheeling in the not
distant future and those WHO had the
p easure of listening 10 lin certainly feel
10 tfo,e who furnished the enter

A pleasant dancing party was given at
Germ anis Hail Wsdre,dsy evening, under
