EVANGELINE.

Rice's ever beautiful "Evangeline" opened
three days engagement before one of the
largest audiences of the season st the New
Haven Opera House last evening. The bur-
lesque that amused our fathers in the days
gone by seems as popular as ever. 1t certain
" highly pleased the people who heard 1t
last evening. It presents the same gorgeous
spectacles, the same fine costumes and the
same venerable puns ana jokes. 1t goes with
the same old snap and spirit and is greeted
with the same hearty laughter. The com
pany presenting it is a fair one. James S.
Mafit is still playing the part OF the Lens
Fisherman and creates large amount OF the
fun. The Gabriel of Miss Anna Boyd is q
good piece of work. She sings well, is full
of life and seems in every way suited to the
character. Big George K Fortescue is still
with the company filling the part OF Cath
crime, and continues his former success:
Miss Bessie Tannehill as Evangeline ana
Richard Golden as LIE Blanc deserve men
ton. The latter occupies Nat Goodwin 8
shoes and does it creditably. The girls are
generally pretty and the choruses well sung.
'Evangeline'' will be repeated this and to-
morrow evenings and tomorrow afternoon,
when the houses will be large.

Disadvantsges of the Sitting Posture.


 The sitting position, which is too often adopted for quite tiny infants, is most in furious to them. When they are so placed their bodies incline forward, the head falls forward and the arms hang forward beyond the center of gravity; these drag oil the shoulders, which are further rounded, while the strain on the muscles of the back is in- creased, and, if the practice is persisted in, permanent deformity results. Further, when the head droops forward and the spine be- comes bent, the cushion like cartridges be- tween the vertebrae become thinned on the inner side, and the angle at which the ribs stand out from the spine is diminished The ends of the ribs are thus brought nearer to- gether, and the breast bone drawn inwards, which diminishes the cavity of the chest. The ribs, in inclining downwards, also push down the organs of the chest, so that they press on to the abdominal organs and hamper their action-an evil which occurs more severely in tight lacing. The functions of respiration and digestion are thus impaired and the seeds sown of future diseases.
 Children should, therefore, never be ''set up" until they have been seen to sit up of their own free will, which they will do as soon as they are strong enough.
 For an infant to be always carried in arms is injurious for it and irksonle for the nurse. People are far too afraid to let babies lie obout and exercise their limbs freely by stretching them in all directions They will 10 this if left to themselves, but they cannot when cramped by badly made clothing, by he nurses body and arms, or even by the walls of a not too rouny cradle-Ada s. 1allin in BabyhOOd
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-01-24
HPrcttv TlinrS's for Esaby.

The average man seems to think that making ''pretty things" for a baby is sheer lonsense and waste of time. Be it lace, enl- oroidery, crochet work, or what not, it is all ''fringe'' to him. And that all sufIicing word fringe" is a synonym for finn fiams and Jolly.
 Nor are women wanting who boast of having ''emancipated" themselves from the bondage of the beautiful; ''superior" beings who rejoice in their impregnability to pretty things"
 But how little these know of the precious processes of a mothers mind! To them, everything that is not absoluSly necessary to bare existence is meaningless, and the tabrication of pretty things a work of pure supererogation. To her, they stand for lreams and hopes and fears, for smiles and tears, for poetry and prayer and prophecy. Her very heart goes into the dainty gar ments where her thoughts are interwrought with the delicate tracery, where her fancies dow in the friils, and her ambitions run in the arabesques.
 Grudge not to the mother the time she puts on baby clothes! To many poor woman this period of preparation is her one glimpse of paradise. What though she spend every spare moment in making ready for the little stranger: What though the very web and wool of her work is thick woven with hopes that may never be realized, perneated with prayers that may never be answered! These ''petty things" that you despise arc a part of her education, means of moral and spiritual development.-Mary Norton Brad ford in Boston Globe.

Marriage is Q Partnership.

Marriage is still only too often bargain, but, at least, it is no longer an entirely one sided bargain. It is tending toward the only true ideal of lifelong companionship-a part nership on equal terms, with equal give and take on both sides. Women no longer feel bound to render that implicit obedience which was considered de rigueur in our great grandmothers days, and mon no longer uni versally demand it.
 Husbands, moreover, are beginning to learn that their prime duty is not Ito look afterr their wives. The very sentence is indicative of the most ghastly misappre- hension of the whole ideal of matrimony. The general feeling of society condemns q man who lives to rule his wife on the same ninciples as pasha rules his harem. And. indeed. the whole scheme of modern life makes it practically impossible for him to do 50. A married woman enjoys, as rule, complete liberty during the livelong day, and even at night it is frequently impossible for busy man to escort his wife. Thus feverything turns on the relations between fde9nasT c6up4A.

A Philosophical View.

Young people, when in the halcyon days
 of their courtship, are prone to invest each
 other with the attributes of angels and the closer intimacy of married life reveals the
 fact that they are simply human, after all,
 having faults and failings that fall in a
 measure even to the best of LIS. While this
 discovery may cause surprise and regret, it
 need not result ill unhappiness, particularly
 if one is of the philosophical turn of mind of ] the old lady mentioned in the following incl dent:
 i ''Wlen my Josiah and me was first mar
 ried, she said, "I'd an idee that he hadn't
 a fault in the world I wouldn't hear to
 anything but that he was perfect and he
 thought the same of me.
 "He just thought, Josiah did, that he'd
 drawn one of them impossible prizes in the
 lottery of matrimony-a woman without a
 fault. .----..
 ''Well, by the time we'd gone through two
 or three housekeeping scrapes, a-talling up and putting down carpets and setting up and tsk!fing down stoves and all that sort of ] thing, to say nothing of blue Monday wash day and toothaches that lasted three days at a time--time we'd gone through all that, Josiah had found out that l wa'n't quite an angel, and I'd discovered that he could do and say things the saints would skeersely do l and say.
 1 ''And one day, ill one of my penitent 1 spells, 1 says to Josiah, says I: I ain't the person you thought was, am I, Josiah? I ain't half as good and sweet as I thought l I'd be-
 1 "We was at the dinner table when I said 1 it, and there was big dish of beautiful 1 honey in the comb on the table. Josiah picked it up, and he says, says he: Mir andy, I like honey as we'll as any man living 1 likes it. and you like it, too, but if we had to | eat it three times day for even six months we'd get so despritly sick of it we'd never 1 want to her the word 'honey" again: Va 1 riety,' says he, is the spice of life, sure i nough.'
 "And most married folks, take notice, lon't eat honey three times a day, and .heyve variety enough to make life inter- estin'. Youth's Companion.

Food for the Young,

After a child's first teeth come try him with bread and milk, then cautiously, oat- neal, rice, wheat and similar grain foods, H.e at time as you find them able to digest il-em. There should be no great change of ,ood attempted in July or August. What ,vcr agrees with year old child in June should be continued the following two or 5hree months. A lady who believed this, :arried her plump, rosy, but teething baby through the second summer ill a city board ing house on three meals day, of bread and milk alone, without an idle day. But her hard heartedness afforded constant topic to her fellow boarders.
 It is possible, in winter: to feed child who is more than year old, some fruit, but this should be suspended for the hot season. In case of an elder child, a little of one kind of fruit, when eaten in the morning, rarely sckens. But fruit should never be given after o'clock in the afternoon. Many a sick night follows too hearty or too varied supper, and the palmer the last meal of the day, the better.
 This diet may seem needlessly plain, but we must remember that little babies have not our cultivated appetites, and do not crave variety as much as we do. No chile needs the stimulus of meats until he is 3 or / years old, unless in the form of weak broths Vegetables, except potatoes, and not too much of that and never fried, are wholly un suited to young child's stomach. So art pastry, shortened cakes and rich cookies.
 It is true some children do live through al kinds of meals, at all hours, but in regulaI hours and plain diet is the only safety fo1 many That the few live only proves how long suffering is nature.-Hall's Journal O Health.

WATERBURY EVENING DEMOCRAT, JAN 24 1888

II girl is really ill love with the man she marrles she may be trusted with any amount oI subsequent freedom Ii not, not; .nd therefore we say that the injudiclous and worldly parents who are responsible for the great majority of ill assorted unions are also responsible for the many evil results which are to be seen ill society at this day.
 For it is fact that rows of English girls arc much forced into marriage as the French girl, whose husband is selected while she is yet in her convent. Not by main force, no; but by the whole tone of her educa- tlon; by the exaggerated fear of being an old maid; by the obvious necessity of making way for younger sister; by the persistent scheming of her parents, and by her own longing for emancipation. For marriage un- doubtedly does mean emancipation to most women, and it is precisely those who look forward to it most who are likely to make the worst use of it.-Pall Mall Gazette.

The Fall of Man.

Mercifully for the world, very few women an in the least understand that side of mems nature in which the senses predominate over r are perpetually fighting with the soul, so hat originally noble human being can ink down to the level of Calypso's swine. 1 question if even an ordinary Wonlan-being good woman-can realize the state of mind which results in a mans making some vretched mesalliance, or sinking under the unlawful thralldom of Cleopatra, an Aspasia, or Phryne. Such things are, but most of us women can hardly comprehend hem. We may, under some extraordinary elf deluson, fall ill love with bad man and Hing to him from duty or tenderness long liter love has departed, but we seldom plunge as a man does, open eyed, into the aets spread by bad woman, whom he knows to be bad woman, and yet cannot hel, J himself.
 The story of Samson and Delilah, repeated lge after age among men, is not often told of IS women. Nor is this common in lesser forms of folly or guilt. If we sin it is generally through self deception; but men do it with their eyes open. remember once at dinner party hearing my host piteously 'amenting over his gout, because of which lis doctor had prohibited wine Immedi- ltely afterward I saw him toss off bumper of champagne. ''Why do you do that?'' ;sl1ed. 'Oh, because" he hesitated, 'because can't help it." He is dead now, but before lis death his splendid fortune had all melted lway, and his wife and children were earn ing their daily bread. And why: Because of that miserable, contemptible ''can't helI it." Now, if there is one thing ill which the average woman is superior to the average rcan it is because she generally can "help it. , -Cornhill Magazine

The Chi1dren,s Party Obsolete.

Do you know it is really a sad verity that the children's party, with games and romps, is an obsolete emulation of youths That naive and interesting event in childhood has completely gone out. l was talking to some youngsters on the subject last week, when, te my horror, one of them, aged 6, informed me that she 'hated games!n And her brother
 who is three years her senior, boldly de- clared, "It wasn't no fun going to girls par ties"-a bit of bad English, by the way, for which his mamma reproved him, though the blase sentiment it conveyed passed unnoticed. This young gentleman further remarked that "Regy'' said so, too. "Regy" is unknown to me, but feel am in tho minority, and to those delightful romps of ''Hunt the Slipper'' and Kiss in the Ring" are terribly out of date, if he says so. ssBut what do you do when you go to your partiesg' I queried
 mOh, thgy ain't parties, in a contemptuous tone. They are ba1ls, aren't tftsy n1amma,

and we dance the coalitions, don't we. mammal" ssOf course" assented mamma; !; with smile in my direction "Well. you poor, little misguided mites of society," I said to myself, Hyou will never know what a jolly time you have lost.n
 After all, perhaps, the children's afternoon party would be thrown away on these in- fants. So much is done for their entertain ment, they would find games that required activity on their parts too much like work It is far more pleasant to sit still and see a Punch and Judy, or comic dissolving views, or magician do lots of funny tricks, than to jump about and spoil the fine clothes one must always don for such occasions. Parents and guardians evidently approve of the less animated style of amusement. But call it 'sparty," or call it juvenile ball." little par ticipants are quite as likely to catch some childish disease at the festivity. Romps and humps, measles and games, scarlet fever and germans hunt in couples, whatever name the tyrant of the house is pleased to give it. Boston Herald.
