Last Nights Play.

Among the Pines' was played at the
opera house last evening by the George
Woodthorpe company to delighted au-
dience. Miss Woodthorpe as Butterfly,
true mountain girl, won storm of ap-
plause in her charming rendition of the
character. Mr.. +. A. Cooper in the part
of Hop Sing delineated the Chinese char
acter with wonderful perfection and in q
manner that brought down the house.
Mr.. II. Barry More made a capital VII
lian. Mr.. Rush Bronson as Sleuth, Mr..
r. E. Franklin as Judge Blossom, Mr..
Lou Wood as Bill Hardy and Mr.. James
Harlow as Mr.. Biglow, each exhibited
some clever acting. Mr.. H. Corbett was
an Irishman from the old soil, and fell a
victim at the hymenial altar through the
Vaccinations of Amanda Peppergrass,
which Miss Lizzie Lawrence sustained in
pleasing manner. Miss Ream Stover
made a graceful Edith Biglow and
brought out everything there was in the
character. Tonight the company will
produce the thrilling western play,
"M'Liss," which is one of their best.
This is strong company, composed of
artists of merit, and they will doubtless
be accorded large audience this even
ing.-Albany Herald.

SIZE OF THE FEMALE BUST.
Breadth of the Shoulders Should be the
Same as the Hips.

A lady correspondent of the New York
Press writes: 81 had an argument with
lady about the size of a grown females
bust. She saws that the difference in
size between the waist and under arms
| should be ten inches. l think four or
five inches at the outside measure. p.
S.-The natural size is what is wanted,
and not one distorted with corsets or
| squeezing"
In order to decide this question two
women physicians have been consultad
on the subject. Mrs. Mary Putnam
jacob saws:
"There is no fixed proportion between
the size of the bust and the size of the
waist. Still less can there be any fixed
measurement for either waist or bust,
seeing that this must vary with the
height of the individual, and with other
circumstances. The most general rule
about the typical female figure is that
| the breadth of the shoulders should cor
respond to the breadth of the hips, while
in the man the shoulders are much broad
er than the hips. The size of the waist
varies not only with expansion of the
lower part of the chest, but also with the
development of the muscles and the
amount of fat upon them.
"The test of tight lacing is not the alb
solute size of the waist, but the degree of
compression of the soft parts needed in
order to allow the corset or dress to
fasten. When there is no compression
the corset should fasten easily in the
middle. But, naturally, the corset can
not be fastened to middle until the top
has been fastened, 1t is then always too
tight"
"Undeveloped chests and waists are
not always due to compression of cloth
ing, but to lack of systematic develop
ment by exercise and gymnastics during
the growing period-that is from 10 to Is.
1t is precisely tn en- that corsets are most
dangerous and precisely then that moth
ers apply them to form the figure If
not worn before %, corsets may be worn
afterwards with impunity."
DR.. Mary Gage said that her attention
had never been called to the point in
question, as the proportionate size of
woman measured under her arm and
around her waist are nothing to do with
her health.
But" she said Il should give as my
opinion that ten inches is nearer the
proportionate difference than four or
five"
Then, to prove that she was right, she
kindly took the trouble TO measure four
women on the spot. In two instances
there was difference of eight inches be-
tween the waist and the bust measure.
In the third there was nine and in the
fourth ten. All of the women were well
proportioned. After the measurement
of woman was taken who had never
worn corsets in her life, the difference
between the two points was barely six
inches. DR.. Gage.brought up in an argu-
ment in favor of her own decision that
the ready made waists sold to a woman
of ordinary size were shaped in exact
proportion to that she had named-that
is, ten inches difference between the bust
measure and the waist.

WHERE HE LEARNED.
The Fakir With the Rings Finds His
Match for Once.

On side lot near the Forepaugh
grounds on North Broad street there was
fakir yestr -day whose outfit consisted
of the stake md ring game, says the
Philadelphia .JeIcS.
The simple and enticing amusement is
played as follows: The stake is placed
in the ground at a certain angle, which
leads the uninitiated to believe that it is
easy to throw the five-inch rings over it,
whereas this feat is almost impossible.
The fakir had q crowd around him and
was raking in the dimes-three 'tries"
10 cents-when black-mustached mid
dle-sized man walked up and said he'd
bet a dollar he could put three rings out
of five over the stake.
The fakir winked at the crowd and
took the man up. The black-mustached
stranger threw five rings rapidly, one
after the other, and as three of them
we're on the stake, the thrower was in 90
cents. They doubled bets and the stran-
ger won again. Then they bet $40 even
than nine rings out of the first ten thrown
could not be put over the stake. The
whole ten settled safely, and the fakir,
as he handed $40 in silver coin over,
said:
"fm broke; what's your business?"
Pm distributor at the postoffice, -
said the ring thrower: 81 don't do any
thing but fling papers all day long into
the mouths of fifty Sacks

IN THE GARDEN.

She's fairer thae lilly,
And she's sweeter than a rose,
And she knocks the neighbors silly
When she wields the garden hose.
She lifts her skirts from danger
With her left hand while her right
Grasps the nozzle. and the stranger
Gets very pleasant sight.
For she's always fresh and rosy,
And she seems so sweet and fair,
As she sprinkles every posy
With the most impartial care.
The neighbors' eyes all twinkle.
And their interest daily grows,
For they like to see her sprinkle,
And they like to see the hose.
