Mr.. Vanderbilt pays his cook 100000
a year, my boy, which is a great deal
more than you and [ earn-or at least il
IS great deal more than we get-be-
cause he can cook That is all. Pre-
sumably because he can cook better than
any other man in America. That is all.
If Nor seur Sauceangravi could cook toll
erably well, and shoot a little, and speak
three languages tolerably well, and keep
books fairly, and sing some, and under
stood gardening pretty well. and could
preach fair sort of a sermon, and knew
something about horses, and could tele-
graph little, and could do light
porter's work, and could read
proof tolerably, and could do plain
house and sign-painting, and could help
on a thrashing- machine, and knew
enough law TO practise in the Justices
courts of Kickapoo township, and had
once run for the Legislature, and knew
how to weigh hay, he wouldn't get
1000 year for it. He gets that just
because he knows how to cook, and it
wouldn't make cents difference in his
salary If he thought the world was fiat
and that it went around its orbit on
wheels. There's nothing like knowing
your business clear through, my boy,
from withers to hook, whether you know
anything else or not. What's the good
of knowing everything? Only the Sophie
mores are omniscient.-[B urdette.

THE Bulletin appears anxious to make
a personal issue, or pick per-
sonal newspaper quarrel with a gen.
tleman whom it assumes to be con-
nected with the editorial department OF
this paper. It has made several at
tempts in that direction, and will per
haps make more. 1t will not succeed.
Personal s,urs of the kind the Bulletin
has INDUCED in deserve no notice from
those at whom they are directed, and we
are assured that in the present instance
they will receive none. The Bulletin
has undoubtedly been hard hit lately,
and probably feels its punishment
acutely, but it will hardly escape from
the pillory in which we have placed it,
by any such tactics as it tried its hand
at yesterday evening. AS public jour
nalists, we are dealing with the Bull
letin, and not with any particular writer
therein. We expect TO hit hard, but we
also propose to hit fair.

The Arabs play marbles differently
from the American boys. OF course
the arrangement of the marbles to be
shot at can be varied in many ways but
the young Arabs shoot the marble in .
way of their own and much more &C.
curately than American lads. The left
hand is laid fiat on the ground with the
fingers closed together, and the mar
lie is placed in the groove between the
middle finger and forednger. The
forefnger of the right hand is then
pressed firmly on the end joint of tho
middle finger, and when the middle
finger is suddenly pushed aside, the
forefinger of the right hand slips out
with more or less force and projects
the marble very accurately in the d.
rection of the groove in the left hand.
Many of the boys become very expert.
Perhaps marbles are almost the only
playthings for which Arab children pay
money-and as rule only very small
capital is needed.-Henry W Jessatp,
i,s st. Nicholas.

THE rIc.U .IsxoUE MULE

Few of us realize what an important
factor OF army life in its picturesque
aspects was afforded by this ungainly,
slab-sided creature. with discordant
voice, really heels. and tremendous re-
serve of energy. Recall any picture
of camp or march, and, if your mem
DRY is retentive of such details, you
will he pretty sure to find pair of
long, pointed ears, and serious, half
discouraged mulo-eyes somewhere on
the canvass. Edwin Fobes has intro.
duced them to excellent advantage in
his admirably etched series OF sketches
of life in the Grand Army, which he
made in the field; and save where
actual fighting is in progress they are
almost of necessity part and parcel of
the scene. Not that the quadruped
was indisposed to take his place in the
forefront of battle when duty called
him there. Not at all; the list of killed,
wounded. captured, and missing mules
is long one, or would be. if it could
be completed; and the steed was, as q
rule, far more willing to go into action
than was his non-combatant driver

He told me that he adopted the pro-
fession of doctor because he didn't

outside of medicine that was the only
sensible profession, for husbands never

A Nevada Mi..,.ow.

The Nevada papers tell about wo-
man in Virginia City, who, being sick,
as it were, threw up, SO to speak, a
live fish, four inches long. There is
only one element of doubt in the
story, that is the size of the fish. The
story is to small for the country. If it
was claimed that the fish was four feet,
or four yards long, there would be .
plausible and harmonious fitness
about the narrative that would com.
mend it the fullest belief Of the public.
Still, it might have been an Eastern

pioturesquely daring bonnet, gorgeous
with Plumes and coquettish with rib
bons, there was not man too unchiv-
alrous to give it significant "Ah!"
There is world of philosophy back of
his superficial remarks.
The many variations of our illustrat-
ed hat seem to find the greatest favor
with recent purchasers. It has low,
medium-sized crown, and its ample
brim is often rolled very high on the
left side. While the front is always
allowed to project over the eyes, the
back and sides are held close and short.
It is imported extensively in Milan
braids, in Suede, Japanese red, greens
of several distinct shades, bronze-gray
and in black. The brims are Of plain
braid, but often underfaced with fancy
straw in she'll and lattice-work pat
terms. These underbrims are some
times of contrasting color. Blood
orange and English primrose are two
new and very fashionable colors used
in these and all kinds of millinery.
Our reception robe shows one of
those rare artistic models Paris is send
ing us for full-dress wear. 1t is FASH
toned in the clinging sheath style and
in the fashionable absinthe. which Is
now in high vogue, combined with
black Chantilly lace, and handsomely
colored Arabesque devices of metallic
cord and silk gimp.
The lace and galloon appear ON the
front of the skirt and bodice, and
the v of the neck is completed by soft
folds of silk illusion.
Piece lace still maintains supremacy
as favorite for elegant toilets; it is SUBJ
ject alone to new combinations and
patterns employed by manufacturers.
It is much used for dresses constructed
in princesse shape, as drapery. The
Oriental is much affected in these dra-
peries. A description can be but
meager when it requires an excellent
artists hand to do the work; but the
lace is often held in full. soft loops by
broad MORE ribbon at the back, and,
like an airy scarf, proceeds across the
sides and front, and is knotted low on
the left side.
The model for the bodice of the re-
ception robe above is frequently util
lied as a surplice waist for house
dresses, in which instances it opens
over plain Jersey waist, and long
sleeves of the same.
With this idea is often combined q
soft silk scarf, outlining the pointed
lower edge, fastened at the back with
fancy buckle and long loops and sash
ends.
This fancy for surplice waists over
plain Jerseys is also introduced with
the short-waisted Empire dresses.
Nothing can be more artistic than q
light-green China silk, with the long,
graceful curves of those plain skirts, q
pulled waist not deeper than your
hand, cut square front and back, with
short pulled sleeves, worn over plain
web Jersey Of pale rose pink. It is
not much more than tea-gown, yet is
very elegant, while just as unincum-

must mention two unmistakable
physical features of the single and sin
cere California women. The first of
these in her early development. I was
called upon to address the young ladies
of our celebrated Mills Seminary-the
Vassar College of the Pacific coast
not long ago; but before I had been
five minutes on the stand found I was
speaking to women-women in body
and women in mind. A second and
singularly beautiful feature in the COM
ing Californian, this new woman of the
new world, is her golden hair. When
called upon to speak to the girls of
the high school of San Francisco q few
weeks since it was like looking over
yellow harvest field. And I count this
very singular, for we have dash of
Moorish blood here. the Moor of the
Alhambra, the Arab of the Jesuit
fathers. We have some of the pure
Castilian, it is true, but nearly all. our
Spanish stock is FLASHED with the tawny
blood of either the Moor or the native
American Indian. Then again we have
the Kanakas in our schools. There are
also many swarthy folk from far down
the Pacific seas But over and above
all these towers the tall California girl,
her head and shoulders laden with
ripened wheat.
I concede there are beautiful women
in London, beautiful women in New
York-strangely, gloriously beautiful;
but they are not distinct types at all.
The whole wide world has been pillaged
and ravaged to procure them. And as
for the one wondrous beauty of Europe,
Mrs. Langtry, she is now with us; and
all who know me know how much I
have admired her simple beauty and
helped to celebrate it. Yet I assert
that I can find in California twenty
Langtrys any day.
I must say briefly but emphatically
that the women of the Pacific coast are
the best dressed ever saw No, they
do not wear gold. They do not wear
many diamonds, as rule. But that
beastly abomination unto the Lord
the bustle-has never yet had its full
growth here, thank God, as in the
States. Neither did the "bang" in its
craziest days ever do much damage to
the Californian. Even the skating
rink rage failed to lift the Californian
woman from her feet, as elsewhere.
But quiet good sense-the best thing
to have in any land or family-has al
ways kept our calm and queenly Cali
fornia women out Of all such excuses
and out of many prevailing follies.
And all this comes, I think, of dis
position to decide and act for herself.

and puts up his Waterbury for the
wherewithal to pay for the flowers that
bloom in the street stalls presided
over by some pretty girl, who is just
pretty enough to make him decide that
his special alteration is more beautiful
still.
These methods of making floral
manifestations of devotion have been
sneered at by unthinking and humorous
observers. But it is most commend
able in some respects, and great saw
ing in yet others. It may be poetical
to gather such offerings in pristine
fields and freshness, but it works havoc
in store clothes.
Our grandfathers may have practiced
economy in other respects, but to put
on new patent feathers and knicker-
bockers only to have them soaked and
begrimed by wading around in dewy
pastures was not the time it was most
manifest. Who will gainsay that the
modern fashion of purchasing them
from an enterprising and prettily
dressed young woman on the city's
street is not more healthful and SEN
sible?
The beneficiary who would rather
her sweetheart risked pneumonia and
malaria might be classed with that mis-
torical beauty who threw her glove to
the lions to prove her lovers bravery:
a subject for our unmitigated disda;n.
Ladies, since the advent of tailor
made suits, have been dressing in al
most plainness personified when abroad
in the street. This season promises to
break their restricted limits, self-im-
posed though they were. This inno-
walton is most observable in their
hats.
One facetious wag, when first at
tracted by the striking features of the
bonnet our artist presents, named it an
"ah-producer. He said gentlemen had
