how TO WEEP a TRIM FIGURE.

Women who wish 20 preserve the slim
ness and contour of their figures must be-
gin by learning to stand well, says II
writer in Dress That is explained to
mean the throwing forward and upward
OF the chest, the llattcning of the back,
with the shoulder blades held in their
proper places and definite curving in of
the small of the back No other women
hold themselves so well MS the aristocratic
English women. Much of their beauty
lies in their proud carriage, the delicate
Greatness of their figures and the fine
poisc of their heads
The same aristocratic carriage is within
the reach of any American girl who takes
the pains to have it; it is only the qucs-
ton of few years of eternal vigilance,
never relaxing her watchfulness over her.
self, and sitting or standing, always pre-
serving her ercctness and poisc, the result
being that Mt the end of that time it has
become second nature to her, and she
never afterwnrd loses it. Another thing
t" avoid is n bad habit of going upstairs,
which most women do, bent forward,
with the chest contracted, which, MS we'll

A Mad Buzzard Attacks n Mule.

Owen Voolfolk, employed as engineer
on the fcrryboat V. Owen, running he
tween Paducah, Ky, and Brooklyn, Ill. =,
relates story OF his desperate encounter
with II mad buzzard few days ago.
Mr.. Voolfolk says he was accompanied
by Squire Sidencr, and was driving along
the road on the Illinois side of the river,
between Strington and the ferry landing,
in the afternoon, when mad buzzard
made a violent attack upon the mule
which was drawing the buggy. The
animal plunged and kicked, and it was
with difficulty that they restrained the
animal from running away. After lcav-
ing the mule the bird turned its attention
to the occupants of the buggy, and made
repeated assaults, and it was only by Wig
orous application of the whip and an old
sack which happened to be in the buggy
that they were enabled to defend them
selves and finally kill the mad bird.
There have been quite number of
rabid dogs killed in that vicinity recently,
and it is supposed that the bird received
hydrophobia by partaking of the car
cases of the deceased animals. Mr.. Owen
says it was the most desperate battle he
ever engaged in, and that he does not
care to repeat it.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

There was an incident at the Centcn-
NAL ball which was rs embarrassing to
Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs. Hayes as it was
amusing to the bystandcrs. Mrs. Cleve-
land had expressed n desire to be intro
duced to Mrs. Hayes, so was led to her
box by one of the Four Hundred who
was dancing attendance upon her. Mrs.
Hayes being engrossed in conversation
at the time and not Immediately rccogni-
zing her visitor, simply acknowledged
the introduction and went on with her
conversation. Mrs. Cleveland stood slight
ly embarrassed for moment, and then
turned and walked out of the box feeling
decidedly chagrined. In the meantime
Mrs. Hayes, who had supposed all along
that her visitor was one of the numerous
class of people who seek introductions on
such occasions, looked up and discovered
that the lady who had just been introduced
TO her had gone, inquired casually what
her name was, and was much amazed as
well as chagrined when gentleman
standing by replied: "Mrs. Cleveland
Mrs. Grover Clevcland-Mrs. ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland" And Mrs. Hayes fran
tically shouted for the General. "Call
the General; bring him to me" and when
the General arrived Mrs. Hayes was at
once led to Mrs. Clevcland's box and was
introduced over again to the ex-Presi-
dents wife, where she apologized for and
fully explained the reason for her lack of

W0MAN'S WORLD.
PLEASANT LITERATURE FOR
FEMININE READERS.
ALL POWERFUL woMAN.

ALL POWERFUL. WOMAN.
What cannot woman do for good or evil,
Sho is the worst and best of human kind
Either an angel or very devil.
Sour and belligerent. or calmly sweet in
clined.
AS wife and mother she can mako home
heaven,
Or bring upon it suffering md blight
BY disposition kind and temper even,
Or bosom full of bitterness and Spite
Tho sweetest, grandest object in creation
Is a good woman in her proper sphere,
Winning the ardent love and appreciation
OF loyal husband and of children dear.
Earnest in her work, devout, untiring--
Ever striving some new bliss to plap--
To no great namo but that of wifo aspir-
ing
The browning glory God vouchsafed to
man.
And then, per contra, there is no one living
More to BIO censured, dreaded and despised,
Than bad woman constant trouble giving
To those who should by her be idolizcd
Splenetic, sour, cruel and seditious,
Careless of home, and fond of rcut and
ball,
Willful, improvidcnt. constituencies and
vicious,
The friend of no one, and tho curse of all.
