Your Own Particular Style.

Adapt, not afopt the fashions,
Choose your own particular stYle-
Each forr has distinctive expression,
As each face a different style.
Then once bccum8ngly covered,
Be r. tful and stop at that;
DON'T try 70 wear ev'ry shaped jacket,
And evry new thing in hat.
But few note the changes that torture
And twist your soul into rugs.
But AL NJ glance can discover
suit without wrinkles or says.
Let Emily have her pink wrapper
And May W.T. p covered with j Z;
Nee1 you wish that yours was not garnet,
And lear up your nObby gray metz
You'll have a hard time If you strus -Ie
To wear SOM thing that mo one ma got
If ev'ry new thing thai Won ponder
Makes your own seem too cold or too
hot,
JUST stand up IN front Of the mirror,
with towel or cover or sheet
Drape here. twist them there, and don't drop
them.
Till you know what's both stylish and neat.
Then buy with an eve to hits income"
The color This choice if YOU can.
For what if YOU please all the woman
And break the great heart Of a mani
Then, once ltcumiueiy e. vered,
BE restiiul-greet all with smile
Adapt, not udup., all the fash ous-
Wear your own parton ar style.

Congressional Succession.

Our position in relation to the
question of Republican nominee for
congress in thi- district the present
year, az indeed in relation to all
other nominations by the Republi-
can party, cannot be better stated
than is done by the Grant county
Her0ld. To our minds the attitude
of the Her0H il the correct one for
all holding the interests Of the party
before the interests or claims Of any
man or locality. Conventions dom
mated as they should be by desire
to do the best for the party they rep.
resent, will di-pa-sionately weigh
all arguments in advocacy of or OPP
position To any candidate suggested.
Therefore, discussions in advance
of conventions are not only per
miseabIe but desirable, as tccding
TO furnish information for the gold
ance Of delegates. The TRIBUNE
may have views Of it's own to pre-
sent IN proper time, and its columns
will be free for use to any who wish
to speak their minds through them,
respectful treatment Of all members
oftbe party only being insisted upon.
The Herotd says;
Preliminary to stating the Her

irve in parties. 1t il true that par

beet secured by the organization of

LEGATION Of this old Ingalls, letter
was doubtless intended to help
Cleveland, but it is more likely TO
prove boomerang.
For the fret time, Cleveland was
seen on foot on the streets Of this
city, Saturday, when accompanied
by Secretary Fairchild he walked -
West Washington and returned. A
short distance behind them walked
two detectives, to see that nobody
should hurt the dear innocent little
things. Bah! It's enough to make
one sick to even think Of, particu-
! larly when it il remembered that
when Gen. Grant was President, he
riade a regular practice of walking
about the city alone; and it would
have been very reckless man who
would have dared to suggest to the
/ brave old warrior that he should be
/ followed by detectives to protect
| hlm from his fellow citizens. But
it's long ways from Grant to
! Cleveland; one was the real man Of
the people; the other is a bogus rep
resentatiye of the people, who tries
to palm himself off on the masses

ParIs, Matrimonial AgencIes.

The police divide the matrimonial agen-
cies into three classes. The first category
has for ordinary clients the nobleman
without fortune and the high government
functionary who has been retired on a
pension. The feminine element is gener-
ally recruited among the foreign colony,
orphans with dowry and rich widows
who bore themselves to death in the prov
inces. The second class agents negotiate
witt lower grade functionaries, retired
officers and middle class folk, who are
''poor but honest" In the third class is
comprised all the agencies that accept no
matter who, provided they can extort u
good commission for their services. This
classification is doubtless an arbitrary
one, but 1t is c~ommodious for police re-
quirements. In the best of these agen-
cies, little If any advance payment is
required, but the applicant signs an
agreement to give 5 or more per cent. on
the dowry within a certain length of
time. l hardly need add that the widest
agents manage to ''touch" a commission
from both parties .-Francis Leland in
The Epoch.

Speaking of actresses, the public only
gets faint and occasional ideas of the per-
sOnal griefs which are often masked by
the mimic jollity of the stage. An actress
Mt II city theatre was engaged the other
night in the performance of n soubrette
role. The part called for unceasing gayety
Of manner and frequent laughter. The
job was half done for the night, and the
recess between acts was nearly over, when
Il telegram was landed to her. She
opened it, and read the simple words:
Gle is dead" Her agitation was in
tense, but it was no time for private sor-
row. The prompter's bell rang, the cur
tain went up, and the Coincidence skipped
into view of the audience as merry of as
poet as before. The message had dropped
from her nerveless hand at the wings, and
Il fellow actor had picked it up. When
the Girl came of the scene he restored it
to her.
"Isn't it ~dreadfulf' she asked.
"Lamentable, indeed" the man re-
piled, alphabetically. "Who is itH"
MY pet pug dog, Adele" And during
the rest of the play the poor actress
masked her grief, and had not even the
sympathy of hat actor to sustain her
until the final fall of the curtain.-New

In few matters has fashion changed
more radically than in the esteem in which
the army is held. Thirty years ago, Henri
de Pene, whom they have just laid in his
last resting place, lampooned the "Subs"
numerically. He got some bad sword
thrusts, it is true, for his reward, but the
public took his part pretty generally. No
one cared to ave young officers in their
houses, and even II they did not tear the
ladies' dresses with their spurs, as he
said, and eat more ice and drink more
champagne than ought 20 have fallen to
their share, they were not welcome guests
the uniform was discredited. Now, it
Is the open sesame to the most exclusive
salon in the capital. All tho young
heiressess and daughters of the nobility
are snapped up by the lieutenants and
sub-lieutenants. A wedding without n
good show of uniforms is a poor affair,
and n bridegroom in a black coat looks
half ashamed of himself. 1t is their turn
now.-Paris Cor. Argonaut.

Every days experience may supply
fresh illustrations of the immense influ-
ence OF contagion in the development Of
all human emotions. Nor is it by any
means to be set down as a weakness pecul-
lar to or characteristic of a feeble mind,
to be blindly susceptible of such con-
tagion. Even the strongest wills are bent
and warped by the winds of other mems
passions, persistently blowing in given
directions. Original minds, gifted with
what the French call lesprit prime
%sautier, are perhaps, indeed, affected
rather more than less than commonplace
people by the emotions of those around
them, because their larger natures are
more open to the sympathetic shock. Like
ships with every sail set, they are caught
by every breeze. 1t is a question of de-
gree how much each man receives of in
huence from his neighbors.
Moreover, be it carefully noted, it is
only by contagion, and not by any kind of
authority or command, that emotions can
be communicated. 1t is a matter of COM
mon observation that any effort to direct
the emotions to order has a tendency to
produce the opposite effect to the one in
tended. To challenge a man to be brave
Is to make him nervous; to bid him ad-
mire a person or a work of art is to sug-
gest to him to be critical; to command a
young man or woman to love the elect of
their parents is to chill any nascent in
clination in the desired direction, and to
make 1t n duty for Montague to hate
Capulets Is to start the loves of Romeo
and Juliet. We must give the feeling we
desire. We cannot possibly impose it.

Petroleum In the Caucasus.

Thu fact that small springs Of petroleum,
together with certain gases, rave been
met with In the course of boring the
Suram tunnel have given rise at Baku to
the opinion that large supplies of petro-
leum probably exist in the interior of the
Caucasus. A large petroleum field has
been opened on the shores of the Black
Sea, in the government of Kutaisk, on the
estate Of Prince Gourieli. 1t has been
taken Up by some large capitalists. The

Two Of the strongest cases quoted by DR..
Kremianski, the Russian physician, in be-
half OF his new treatment OF phthisis, have
been described in the foreign journals.
IN one of these, that Of a lad of 10
who had undoubted phthisis, there was
ordered n four days dose of aniline-but
by mistake three times the proper quaint
ty was taken-combined with nux vomica,
mint water and %antihbrin, his diet being
good, including dried meat, kvas and or
anges; he was also given limitations of
atomized aniline. A remarkable change
took place almost Immediately, all the
rales disappearing, and his temperature,
respiration and pulse becoming normal.
The second case was n complicated one,
there being tubercular p~eritonitis, and
meningitis, together with typhoid fever,
present at the same time as pulmonary
phthisis; aniline inhalations, washing out
the pulmonary cavities and corrosive sub
Innate II antiflbrin, were employed, to-
gether with n special acid diet as in the
other case. Here, too, the results nre
said to have been remarkably good, the
bacilli disappearing from the sputum and
the patient regaining his health entirely.
