Tho Terror of Actresses.

Over abundance Of flesh is the terror Of
actresses. Fat, fair and forty may make
comely combination In private life, but
when woman Of the stage gets along to-
ward forty she is spoiled for oil sentimental
purposes il she becomes fat The beautiful
Fanny Davenport, who is just about that
age, became SO thick few years ago as to
be unromantic, and the effect upon her roles
was damaging. She recognized this, and
went into course Of rigorous diet, from
which flesh making food and drink were
sedulously excluded. Her health was hurt
considerably by this deprivation of nourish-
ment, but she grew measurably thin under
it, and last winter was once more light
enough to realize the heroine Of French
drama Lillian Russell was somewhat
younger stage beauty who fattenetl She
was less disposed than Miss Davenport to
cruelty her appetite for arts sake, but she
had to come to it at length, and to fit herself
for q comic opera role at city theatre this
spring she underwent rigorous course of
training down. She is again shapely, at tho
cost of much self denial, but with gain of a
liberal salary, for her engagement was con-
ditional upon her reducing her weight to l75

A Wonderful Catastrophe.

A correspondent at Marienville, this
county, writing to the Derrick tells the
following pretty good one;
The big sensation occurred on No.
vember l. A man hurried to town
from the country, aroused the Justice
of the Peace from his peaceful slum.
bers, with the information that he had
discovered the body of an infant tied
in a sack and sunk by piece of iron
to the bottom of we'll. He had fshed
it up, examined enough to know what
it was, and then hurried to make the
proper report to the authorities of the
find. The Justice Of the Peace after
some close questions, started the con
stable after the necessary six "good
and true men" for jury, and when
all were ready the Justice of the Peace,
constable, jury and two doctors started
for Bowman's Siding. The Justice of
the Peace and the foreman of the jury
arrived first, found the we'll and the
sack all right, but on Sitting the sack
they only found two dead cats. The
jury soon arrived and solemnly viewed
the cats; the medical profession view.
ed the cats and then they sat down on
logs and laughed, and one swore; the
Justice of the Peace covered up the
we'll and sent for the informant. When
be arrived he told the jury how tive
boys had discovered the body, then q
man and his wife had also found it.

HERE AND THERE.

The Bradford Star says: Venus is be-
stars she may be seen in the southwest
ern sky at twilight. Jupiter is moving
down toward her. They get little nearer
every evening. Venus seems coy, but she
isn't. Behind Jupiter is Mars, as if watch
ing the celestial Irritation. The three
planets are worth looking at In the hour
following sunset.
There is a society paragraph current, to
the effect that sin fashionable society and
the upper polite world it is not considered
good form to talk smart or say clever
things or to refer to books, authors, foreign
politics or any of the great affairs occupy
ing the worlds attention." The attempt
to boom this edict Of pulpy-headed mood
ledom will be fiat failure. No doubt the
dude and the empty-headed trifier of both
sexes would be glad to make inanity and
insipidity the rule in society. But those
who know good society, and are mainstays
of it, are we'll aware that the brainless
ultra-fashionable noodles taboo clever
talk simply because they can't understand
it and are incapable of taking part in it,

An exchange says: Everybody in the
wide world is hunting soft snap. Boys
grow up with desire gaining strength in
their expanding chests, for some position
wherein the pay will not be regulated by
the labor. The expectation of finding a
situation generally dies out before the boy
goes far. There are no such snaps If a
person wants to be anything in the world,
he must count on nothing outside Of his
own merits. The more work of one kind
and another that a man can go through,
the better are his chances in life. Some
men who are credited with having soft
time because they do not exert their mus
| cles very much, are worked harder than
many who envy them. Brain work is
more fatiguing and tiresome than manual
labor. The man who has nothing TO do is
an object of pity in this busy worlds Let
| a man get used to work and he must stick
to it however rich he may become-it is
essential to him, and he would die without
it. When we consider this fact, we should
not blame certain men who having plenty
of wealth to keep them, still engage in
| business. Men were not built TO loll
around, and they cannot do it for any
length of time, and be happy"

and at last he got knowledge of il and
so reported. The Justice Of the Peace
then demanded that he produce the
"said body" The old gent walked to
the we'll and of course found the cats.
He was as one stricken dumb for a
while, and then declared that he acted
in good faith and thought honestly
that it was the body of child.
The jury then found "that hereafter
when the complainant finds a body
that he take with him some level head
ed man to determine whether it is the
body Of a cat or child, that he pay
the costs and be incarcerated in the
asylum at North Warren for three
months and two days, and may Judge
Brown show him no mercy" The
complainant declared that he would
never pay cent of costs, he would
go to Jail first or the sylum, thereupon
the jury arose as one man and smote
him. Meantime, the story finally

THANKSGIVING.

The President has issued the follow.
ing proclamation:
Constant thanksgiving and graft.
tude are due from the American people
to Almighty God for His goodness and
mercy which have followed them since
the day He made them a nation and
vouchsafed to them free government.
With loving kindness He has con-
stantly led US in the way of prosperity
and greatness. He has not visited
with swift punishment our shortcom.
iDgs, but with gracious care He has
warned US of our dependence upon
His forbearauce and has taught us
that obedience to His holy law is the
price of continuance of His precious
gifts.
In acknowledgment of all that God
has done for US rs nation aud to the
end that on an appointed day the
united prayers and praise of a CRATE.
iul country may reach the throne of
grace, |, Grover Cleveland, President
of the United States, do hereby desig.
nate and set apart Thursday, the
twenty.ninth day of Novemb ber, instant,
as day of thanksgiving and prayer,
to be kept and observed throughout
the land.
On that day let all our people sus.
pend their ordinary work and occu-
pations and in their accustomed places
of worship, with prayer and songs of
praise, render thanks to God for all
His nercies, for the abundant harvests
which have rewarded the toll of the
husbandmen during the year that has
passed and for the rich rewards that
have followed the labors of our people
in their shops and their marts of trade
and traffic.
Let US give thanks for peace and
for social order and coptentment with.
in our borders, aud for our advance
ment in all that adds to national
greatness.
And mindful of the affective dis
.pensation with which portion of our
land has been visited, let US, while we
humble ourselves before the power of
God, acknowledge His mercy in set,
ting bounds to the deadly march of
pestilence, and let our hearts be chast-
ened by sympathy with our fellow
countrymen who have suffered and
who mourn.
And as we return thanks for all the
blessings which We have received from
the hands Of our Heavenly Father, let
US not forget that He has eDjoined
upon us charity, aud on this day of
thanksgiving let US generously remem,
Der the poor aud needy, so that our
tribute of praise and gratitude may
be acceptable in the sight Of the Lord.
