a "Parent,sn y Grievance.

The principal of school in Western
city set apart a time during each week,
when parent might see him in regard to
the studies or conduct of his children.
One day he was visited by woman who
was evidently burdened with a mighty
grievance. Her face was gloomy, and
seemed to wear disappointed look.

History of Corsets.

Strut, who is trustworthy authority
on costumes, says {" English Dresses W {:
"Toward the conclusion of the fourteenth
century women were pleased with the ap-
pearance of long waist, and in order to
produce that effect they invented strange
DISBURSEMENT called corse or corset" The
word corset appears at least as early as the
thirteenth century, and in sumptuarv
laws made early in the reign of Edward
~. wrought corsets and corsets worked
with gold are restricted to certain classes
of the female nobility. They appear how
ever, to have been worn by both sexes, and
were usually quilted, having slips of whale
bone between the quilting. Their breadth.
together with the mode of fastening them
by lacing, permitted of their being drawn
very tight, and thus produced the slim
waists referred to by the various writer's of
the period. "a French moralist @ who
wrote during the reign of Henry VI. SAYS ::
: By detestable vanity ladies of rank now
cause their robes to be made so tight in the
waist that they can scarcely respire in
them, and so often suffer great pain by it
in order to make their bodies small.'"
" In the time of Queen Elizabeth" saws
Strut, the bodice was also used by men.
though this custom, believe, was never
generally adopted" Pictures of some of
the remarkable men of that time are rep
resented with slim waists, which are pre-
sumably the result of such tight lacing.
From that period up to our own day cor
sets have been worn by women of England
and of most other civilized nations. They
combine in one the mammillarc, the stro-
phion, the zoster, the zona, ETC., of the
ladies of ancient Greece and Rome.
That the wearing of corsets is a gain to
many women is evident enough from the
fact that they are worn under conditions
IN which the wearers are regardless of
mere appearance. For instance, we may
cite the working peasant woman, unmar-
ried as well as married, of France, Swtzer-
land, the Tyrol, Austria and Hungary.
etc, who wear stays during the perform
ance of very laborous work, yet who, one
could not suppose, would do this if their
stays interfeIed with their comfort or
movements. Another example of the
same fact is illustrated by the very poor
workingwomen Of our nation, who, when
obliged TO sell their clothes, or when
these hang about them in rags still, as a
rule, stick to the useof stays. Many other
examples to the same effect might be
given, showing that more regard for APP
pearance will not, as is usually supposed,
explain the widespread adoption by the
women of our own time of corsets or of
tightly-bound sashes, as in the case, for
instance, of the countrywomen of SPAIN

A BRACE OF BRUTEs.
Inhuman Treatment of Weak-Nerved
Woman Causas Her nnn.I,

HARRISBURG (Pa.) December 24th The par
tieulars of a case which is remarkable for a
husband S cruelty and in which dentist S part
IS none the less fiendish, have Just been made
known here. About ten days ago Mary Scetwig,
who lives near Halifax, complained to her hus-
band that she was suffering with toothache At
hrst she was scornfuliy laughed at and she re-
celyed this unsympathetic treatment for sew
eral days without a word of protest Several
days passed. during which time she only oeca-
slonally referred to her extreme suffering when
hnally her husband impefuously remarked that
she had better go to dentist, and have her
teeth extracted. The wife then determined to
go to dentist, and after much persuasion the
husband was induced to go with her
AT the dentists Office before she got in the
chalr, the woman almost tainted from nervous
ness, which had the effect of making the hus-
band still more irrascible. With the assistance
OF the dentist she was placed in the chair, and
the man with his forceps commenced the work
OF extraction. Mrs. Scetwig could not take an
anfesthetic, and when two or three of her teeth
mad been taken out she pulled violently to
escape the dentists cruel operations 1t was
necessary to have thirteen teeth removed and
the husband was determined not to permit his
wife to leave the chair until every one had been
taken out. To make the work easier for the
dentist, the husband held mis- wifes head and
arms so she could not move, and the work con-
t1nued until all the teeth had been extracted
BY this time the woman was exhausted and
unable to rise from the chair. The two men
realized that she was in a dangerous condition
and they at once applied restoratives phys
lcian was summoned, and every effort was
made to revive the woman's powers but it was
OF no avail, and she died two hours later

The Pope Complains of His Treatment
by the GnYarnment

ROME. December 24th.-The Pope, addressing
the Sacred College to-day, gave thanks to God
for the blessing which his jubilee had brought
him. He affirmed, with much feeling his
former utteranees on the question of temporal
power, and Indignantly rejected the accusation
that he was an enemy of Italy. He urged
Catholics everywhere TO aeitate, in a legal man
ner. for the restoration of Papal supremacy
and spoke in depreciation of the recent Liberal
enactmeHts in Italy. His address throughout
was unusually violent and bitter
The speech referred exclusively to the Vati-
can and Italy. His Holiness said the whole
world saw in what a painful situation ne was
placed. One could only ask, "How far will they
go?" At the present time systematic war was
being waged. Even the person of the Pope was
exposed TO the threats of mob. The enemies
of the Holy See had weapons enough already to
injure the Papacy, and if these did not suffice,
they were prepared to manufacture fresh weap-
ons. Il was persistently asserted that the Pope
was an enemy of Italy. This assertion was sim
ply made 10 mask the real object of the perfid-
ious war against the Church, and that object
was TO render Italians hostile to the Papacy. To
vindicate the rights of the Pontif was in reality
to advance the prosperity of Italy. To demand
that the greatest moral power in the world
should possess a real sovereignty in Italy, where
Providence placed the Church centuries ago,
was not an act of hostility to the country The
fact that the Bishops in foreign lands were la
boring for the restoration of the Popes tenn
poral rights proved that the interests of the
whole Catholic Church were bound up in their
cause

The Famous Letter Intended Only to
Fool the Democrats

Fool the Democrats.
INDIANAPOLIS, December 24th - Emery B.
Sellers, United States District Attorney, whose
resignation has not yet been accepted was in
this city few hours to-day. He says he occu-
pies rather strange position. The President
has not accepted his resignation, neither has he
been officially notified that he refuses to accept
1t, and unless he assumes that Bailey's nomina-
ton created vacancy why he is still District
Attorney of Indiana.
Judge J. S. Suite of Frankfort, Ind, a close
friend of Sellers, and who is familiar with the
inside history of Indiana politics, is out in an
interview giving new reason Tor Sellers resig-
nation, which he says he has from Sellers
direct. Judge Suite says: "Mr Sellers talked
unreservedly regarding the Dudley letter, and
said he was satisfied the Sentinel had fallen into
a trap set for Indiana Democrats by Dudley;
that the letter was written with a view of hay-
ing reach as many Democrats as possible; that
no better medium of circulation among Demo-
Gratis could be obtained than the Sentinel; that
only one letter was written, and that where it
would certainly fall into the hands of the SeIti-
mel; that 1t was Dudleys intention to divert at
tention from New York by that letter, and cause
the Democrats to concentrate all their funds as
well as their best efforts, in Indiana, thereby
enabling the Republicans to carry New York,
which they did, and that the letter was no un-
important factor in such result; that no such
letter was ever sent TO or received by any Re-
publican Committeeman; that he expressed this
same opinion to leaders of his party, and that
the Sentinel is mad because of the blunder it
made"

asked the Government to put stop to these en-
croachments on French rights.
NJ. Goblet, Minister of Foreign Affairs replied
that the Government wanted to secure respect
for the rights assured to France by the treaty OF
Utrecht. French fishermen did not now require
Newfoundland bait. France only occupied one
fifth of the French shore where English indus
tries had been established. These had been tol
Grated so long as they did not interfere with
French rights. The Government would now
however. cause their removal and would al
once negotiate with England, with the object Of

Desperate Assault by Kentucky Woman
Her Neighbor.

SOMERSET (Ky.), December 24th.-A trivial
quarrel between two women near here Satur-
day resulted in the fatal stsbbing of one of
dren.
Mrs. Frank Stephens, wife of a wen-to-do
farmer, rented patch of ground to Mrs. Bureh-
field. The latter fell behind in her rent and
quarrel was the result. On Saturday Mrs.
Burchfield, with her two children. boy and
girl aged 10 and Il, were working in the field
when Mrs. stephens approached, and after q
few words pulled from her dress a bowie-knife
and savagely attacked Mrs. Burchfeid, stabbinx
her in the breast and under the left shoulder
blade.
Mrs. Burchield's little children rushed to
their mothers assistance, when the maddened
amazon turned on them, cutting both severely
but not dangerously. The wounded woman
and children were taken to their homes Mrs
Burchfeld's wounds must necessarily prove
fatal. Mrs. Stephens was arrested.
