PUGILISM In SOCIETY.

The atmosphere OF the prize ring is

openly talked, without shame, to ladies'
of quality; it is understood by young
maidenS fresh from school. The moral

license given to what he will call bru-

or he may lash the hypocrisy which en-

batting, says the Pail Mall Gazette.
1t would not be difficult to prove that
the element of primitive barbaffSm, to
which pugilism must always appeal. has
never ceased to exist among us, even
when its presence has been least sus-
pected. The inventor OF the NasmytL

TOO MORAL A TOWN.
An Artists FruitIess Efforts to
Secure Female Models.

Henry SharStein, the artist engaged
to make the life-size, plastic figures over
the boxes at Music hall. has had ter
rible experience in getting models. He
wanted to bring out Saga and Elnheriar,
nude characters in the Morse mythology,
male and female. He advertised, and
had any number Of answers from both
men and women, says a Buffalo On. y

one could see that she was taxing every
muscle in her face to look as beWitching
and beautiful as possible. l faneied
from the start that she did not under
stand fully what was expected of her,
but l did not expect the storm that
burst forth upon my head few minutes
later. l was shown into room where
her mother was, and at once proceeded
to business. The mother looked at me
very critically for an instant and then
began:
"'Well, we saw your notice in the
paper, and | told Jennie if she could
make few pennies by letting a re-
spectacle man paint her face, didn't
see as there was anything wrong about
it.
"'That's all very true replied; but
that isn't all | want

want?" exclaimed the mother, as if she
was Mortified by the vision of some
dreadful calamity that her daughter
had narrowly escaped.
Well i replied, Il want two models

male and female character in mythOl-
Ogy. These figures must be taken from

nude. SO you see; But / didn't have
a chance to see much more, for the
mother was flying all about through the

though her heart would break. She got
| up from her chair, and, giving me a
desperate look of scorn, flew out of the
| room, declaring that she never sup
posed that gentleman could insult a
lady so basely.
l called at several different places and
received about the same kind of recep,

perience in other cities, and naturally
supposed that some of the replies to the

In another place the big brother was

his shoulders before he could make his

was short, the artist began to feel des

THE RIGHT TO CROW.
An Amusing Case Which Has just
Been Decided in Germany.

Dccu DcCIucu HI germany
Exchange. -
A famous case has been decided in
SileSia, province i'm Germany, which
establishes the ROSTERS right to crow.
A comfortable citizen, who enjoyed
sleeping rather late in the morning, was
much disturbed by neighbours rooster,
which insisted on filling the air every
morning with his res0unding cOck-a-
dOOdle-dOo. The rooster seemed not
only to be proud of his crow, but to be
under the impression that all the world
was eager to hear it as soon as the day
began.
The gentleman whose rest was dis
turbed by the Growing, after enduring it
patiently for time, went into court and
made a complaint against the rooster,
praying for protection of the court
against the disturbance of his sleep.
The court decided, however, that the
right to crow is, to rooster, inalien-
able ana irrem0vable, that the rooster
would not know how to live without
growing, and that neither the complain
ant nor any other person could produce
sane and healthy rooster that did not
crow. The only way to get rid of the
growing, they said, was to get rid of the
ROSTERS, which was a course not to be
thought of.
The plaintiff was non-sulted; and he
fancied that the rooster crowed the next
morning with greater vigOr and care
lesSness than ever.

THREE KISSES.

We sat beneath the Whispering trees,
My own true love and l alone,
While Cupid. floating on the breeze,
Claimed all the glorious world his own
Sweet, tender words unbidden rose
Upon my lips: and bushes red,
Like the SUMS glare on virgin SHOWS,
With meltingwarmth her cheeks O erspregd
| drew her closer to my side
And softly begged her to confess
That she was mine-my own, my bride:
| heard her family whisper Yes
/ gently kissed her face and met
Her eyes, with radiant love-light El,ed.
That trembling kiss II ne er forget
Which both our hearts with rapture filed
Then years have gone, and somber gloon
Surrounds me nOw-all Joy has fed
For there within the darkened room
My love, my darling wife, lies dead.
There rests the cold, pale shape of clay
That once with human life was warm;
The soul love has passed away
And left i'll death the beauteous form
Softly stoop, those lips to kiss
That oft have thrilled with rapturous love
But they are cold and motionless
No power again can make them move.
The last farewell caress is DER.
Fen that cold touch is now denied,
A grief, like waves on barren shore,
sweeps over me, an endless tide.
Sad thoughts are mine, with sorrow rife;
Gone is the light which strong has shone
To guide my faltering steps through life,
And must struggle on alone
Stern pangs of grief like blows, i feel,
My fearless eyes with madness shine;
Then-round my neck two soft arms steal,
And baby lips are laid on mine.
My bonds are loosed; press the child
Against my breast, while fall the tears;
Beyond the throes of passion wild
ray of living hope appears.
Sweet child the mothers very soul
Was IN that kiss. Through worldly strife
Perchance men find a heavenly goal
A purer love in death than life

hold conducted on patriarchal princi-
pies. At any time he might be pro-
NOTED to higher position or entirely
manumitted. In the latter case: no
prejudice worked against him on ac-
count Of his former servitude, and he
might, If possessed of ambition and
ability, aspire to the highest position in
the civil or military service, POSSIBLE
ity all the more likely because such a
thing as hereditary nobility does not,
and never has, existed in the East. The
only apparent exceptions are in the case
OF minor kings or rulers who, on subju-
CATION, have been permitted to continue
to hold their dOminiOns in fef, them
selves and their heirs, during good be-
haviOr. Even negroes who have been
slaves have reached the positions of
generals and admirals in Eastern cOun-
tries. This is, indeed, slavery very
different from that which once disgraced
the flag of the United States.
AS for the women who were or are
still. slaves by purchase in Persia, the
bondage is of the nominal character.
They can by no possibility be separated
from their husbands, while f,as usually
happens, they become concubines of
their masters and have children by him,
they practically become wives and share
similar privileges of the wives of the
second grade. Often they become fav-
Orite wives and the mothers of men of
rank. If slaves of the shah, the child
elevates the mother to the position of
queen-dOwager. A great deal of twad-
die has been written on the subject of
the sale of CircasSian women. and the
terrible condition of women in Moham-
medan countries. This twaddle has
often been uttered by American women
who shrink from the honor of mother
hood, and who are greater slaves
to fashion than are the women
of Persia to their so-called lords
and masters. The fact is that.
so far as l can learn, Persian women
are as happy as American women; like
them they share the troubles which fall
alike to all of woman born. AS to

TO properly top off their Christmas
