Handsome MEN.
Mrs. Frank Leslie elves Her
Denuition of HALE Beauty.

Nrs. Frank Leslie elves Her
Definition of Male Beauty.
To call a man charming in face, or
lovely, or beautiful, or pretty, is to
minimize-almost to insult him
writes Mrs. Frank Leslie. A man
can only be called handsome, and
very, very few men can be called
that.
A handsome man must be
manly in figure, conveying the idea
of strength and energy under the
most reposeful exterior. He must
have the shapely hands, feet and ears
that tell of good blood and cultivated
progenitors; he must have his head
we'll shaped, we'll set and we'll ear
ried, he must have a deep, broad
chest and straight back, and long,
sbapely limbs; his features must be
regularly formed, and yet full of K
presson, and the kingly power that
great sculptors try to give to Jupi-
ter.
Coloring does not much matter.
so that there be no red upon the
cheeks, and not too much in the
lips. and perhaps the mezzo tints
lend themselves most satisfactorily
to manly beauty, but above all, the
handsome man must not be stout.
The heavy throat which overfiows the
shirt collar never carries with it an
air of refinement, whatever it may
do of strength. A blonde man runs
the risk of weakness and insipidity,
and black bearded man is handsome,
even though he be a tride melo-
dramatic, but still golden haired
and a black-hair mon have been
very attractive the world over.
OF course, below this grand
climacteric in the thoroughly hand
some man there are ranks after
ranks, of good looking, attractive,
pleasant-faced men some upon
whom one loves to look and find
sweet content in contemplating
faces and forms far from faultless,
and yet quite satisfactory. And
here we may come upon one of the
most strange and almost cruel con-
ditions of our being. A man may or
may not have any physical attrac-
~tiveness whatever, but nobody likes
him the less for the deficiency, he
never finds it a barrier in his career,
q source of failure in his life; women
love him and men approve him just
as readily as il he is handsome, in
fact. the woman or women who. love
him set him down as handsome in
serene defiance of the rules of beauty
or the opinion of the world,

Capturing q Lunatfc.

A crazy nan by the name of Wet
terind recently ~terrorized the Swedish
town Of Goteborg for more than a
whole week. He had locked himself
in the top story OF a house, whence he
commanded a wide sweep OF street,
and marked and fired at any and
everybody who approached. After
he had shot one man dead the firemen
attempted to drown him out, but could
not get neal enough, and the man was
a dead shot. They next made iron
shields to protect them in the approach,
but these proved too cumbersome. An
attempt to dislodge the lunatic by
throwing dumb-bells charged with
electricity at him, had to be aban-
doned. A barricade was then erected
around the house by the police and a
regular siege laid to it. The lunatic
stood it a week before he was starved
out, and was then seized by strategy,
too weak to defend himself. He had
wounded a number Of people from his
perch during the singular campaign

A Mortified Doctor.

A Philadelphia doctor who was

made on account of his taking a
little A" nil" from a pocket flask. has
invented a method of carrying

popular in prohibition States. His
invention is a little capsule of rubber.
looking much like a grape. which is
filed with wine or liquor and dis
tended until it assumes the form and
semblance of a large and juicy fruit.
These grapes are filed with a variety
of bibulants-old rye, whisky. Hol-
land gin, port. sherry. or cordials-
to the extent of about a pony glass
full. The thin rubber breaks as
easily as a grape skin between the
teeth, and no one would think they
we're not real grapes.

"All right, Maria. You go out

But Maria thought him too much

federate army, and as he was born
in 1847 he was of course, a very
young soldier when he " went away
to the war;" aud an old uncle of his
gave him q coin which he carried
for years as a pocketpiece. The
uncle said:
John, I believe this coin carries
good luck with it. Keep it about
you all the time, and it may even be
the means some day of saving your
life."
Allen put the coin away carefully
in an inside pocket and took his
leave amid the prayers Of his weep
ing relatives. When he returned.
his people gathered to greet the
hero, and among them wes the old
uncle.
Uncle" said John, lyon re-
member the coin you gave me?
Well, that coin saved my life at

exclaimed the old man. II thank
heaven for prompting me to give it
to you. Tell us all about it, john"

Boy hat Was eratiaed.
The following touching incident
which drew tears from my eyes, was
related to me a short time since, bya
dear friend who had il from an eye
witness Of the same. II occurred in
the great city Of New York, on one
Of the coolest days OF February last.
A little boy about 10 years old
was standing before a shoe store on
Broadway, bare-footed and shiver-
ing with cold.
A lady riding up the street in q
beautiful carriage, drawn by horses
finely caparisoned. observed the
little sellow in his forlorn condition
and Immediately ordered the driver
to draw up and stop in front OF the
store. The lady, richly dressed in
silk, alighted from her carriage,
went quietly to the boy and said:
my little fellow. why are you
looking so earnestly in that
window ?"
was just asking God to give
me q pair Of Shoes" was his reply.
The lady took him by the hand
and went into the store and asked
the proprietor if he would allow one
Of his clerks to go and buy her a
half dozen pairs of stockings for the
boy. He readily assented. She
then asked him if be could give her
q basin of water and a towel, and be
replied, Certainly" and quickly
brought them to her.
She took the little fellow to the
back part Of the store, and removing
her gloves, knelt down, washing
those little feet and dried them with
the towel.
BY this time the young man had
returned with the stockings. Plac-
ing a pair upon his feet, she
purchased and gave him O pair OF
shoes, and tying up the remaining
pairs Of stockings gave them to him.
and patting him On the head. said;
II hope, my little fellow, that you
now feel more comfortable"
As she turned to go. the aston
ished lad caught her hand, and look
ing up in her face with tears in his
eyes, answered her question with
the words, Are you Gods wife?'-

The Stryehnine Treatment.

Endorsement by an eminent scien-

In fact, having enjoyed considerable
opportunity for personal observation of

that strychnine is the only certain
remedy for the whisky habit" Its
results are very satisfactory-at least,

the drunkard. Dose, one ounce,

He Gives M Particulars Of she
Hattie with nfteheii.

Hattie with Mitchell.
BosroS. April &c. = Yesterday
after bis arrival, in speaking Of his
battle with Mitchell, Sullivan said:
ut makes me mad TO think Of it. but
what's the use Of one man trying to
whip all England? 1 had to fight an
Englishman. an English referee and
an English press, which never
treated me squarely. Then there was
Baldock, Mitchell's second. He is
the cleverest umpire in England and
he is as tricky as O rat. II was not q
fight ct all, but simply a
running match, in which L
had 10 do all the chasing.
Then Mitchell bad the best Of things,
as he fouled me 40 times during the
hattie, and my umpire claimed the
fight for me as many times. but
nothing short Of killing him could
win it for me. Then l had q dirty
back-capper in my party, who was
on the other side, although he pre-
tended to be with me. / had the
worst Of positions, and got chilled
through by the storm, but ever If
the referee bad been half square /
would have won.
"After / disabled my right fist in
attempting to land it on his abdo-
men for the purpose Of doubling
him up, / of course was badly handi-
capped. II did not take me q
month to understand that I could
not win. I kept from taking any
chances that would give the referee
an opportunity to award Mitchell
the fight. OF course you have read
the story of the fight. and the man
mel in which / treated him. but ]
carry with me q story of the battle
that will speak for myself, and that
is the spike marks in my legs and
feet. Mitchell tried his best &c
MAIN me with his spikes, and the
referee allowed him TO do anything
that he liked, regardless of prize
ring rules. He was bobbing up and
down like O shuttle-cock whenever
l went after him, but those tactics
were changed occasionally by ar
exhibition of sprinting."
