The latest Feminine Fad.

New York World.
Two young and pretty women entered
a Broadway car, each carrying in her
arms little parcel in the most tender
and motherly fashion. So solicitous
were they over their respective parcels
that lullaby seemed almost bursting
from their lips. They were hot nurse
girls, so they must be mothers, although
it was apparent they were young
mothers, and very handsome ones
WIthal.
Half dozen men jumped up to offer
them seats. The girls giggled as they
sat dOwn-and no wonder, for the bun
dies they carried in such motherly
fashion had been deftly improyised,
under sudden inspiration to represent
babies. There was little of them except
a crook of the arm and lace hapdker-
chief to cover SupposititiOuS babe, but
enough to deceive poor, trustful man.
The giggle was general, for the girls
had obtained seats on new and an
original plan.

CHICAGO, Dec. 23.-There was fair
amount of bull news to-day, but the market
lacked bull force al the opening TO force the
shorts 10 yield at all, and with no outside
trade to brace the market, the local trade
soon weakened. and before l O'Clock May
wheat sold from SS7Se off TO S27sc, thereby
losing the entire advance Of Saturday. The
best bull point of the day was the Liverpool
cables, which gave spot wheat Ad dearer
early. with futures tending higher and at the
close California and Indian wheat futures
were quoted lsd dearer all around. An
olber feature of the strength was the i'm
proved feeling at the sesboard. and buying
orders here from New York. That point,
however, cleared no wheat and
Philadelphia and Baltimore less than
10000 bu. The bear points were
the increase of 33l, 600 bu i'll the visible
supply where the trade expected very light
increase, or perhaps a little decrease. The
stock here increased 1873. 600 bu, at Duluth
149, 600 Minneapolis and st. Paul ;47,0O0.
ST. LoniS 5000. Hutchinson was pretty
fair buyer early, and Mithcell and Baxter
bought but sold out later. and Linn was
seller from the start putting out another
short line. Schwartz & Dupee and Chandler
Brown were free sellers. December sold at
IS. "a 7S7Sc TO 7SAe; January. T9c. off to
ESIs91SSsc: May sold at S3Is6S3I2c 10
S3Ssc 10 S3lSGS$4c 10 s27S@S3Ac al
O'Clock. CaIs for Tuesday esti-
mated at 237. During the last ten
minutes there was quite a contest tor
the closing price in wheat. The price OF May
was forced down from S3i4e 10 S3c. and the
close was at S3lsc. The proposition of ele-
vatOr owners TO restore Old rates on storage
nearly double the present charges-was
feature OF the day. There viii be strong
remonstrance. Receipts were 36 ears winter
WheaI. 30 cars spring. 5S4 cars corn, and 25o
cars oats, by rail and 1900 bushels corn by
canal. Withdrawals from store were 3.76S
bushels winter wheat 2.3SJ bushels spring,
u 295 bushels corn. and 3450l bushels
oats. The visible grain supply statement, as
compiled by Secretary Stone, of the board
of trade, shows an increase for the
week of $4,000 bushels wheat $780,
900 bushels corn, and $4,000 bushels.
Corn was quite active, but values ranged
lower. December opened at Sc and sold off
10 see. May opened at 32s40 327sc. sold at
327sc and broke to 32l2e. At this price
Hutchinson offered to take all that anybody
had for sale. and this, of course, prevented
further decline His purchase of January
frightened off good many prospective sell
ers, and also prevented break in this future.
Oats were dull and easy, closing 1sc lower.
Provisions were dull from start to finish.
The extremes for January pork were SO. 10
and S917l269.20. The trading was as light
as the fluctuations were narrow. The rather
light receipts of hogs at the yards served to
hold prices steady.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

The Widows Cork Leg.

Chicago Herald.
LIN one of Chicago's public institutions
is a bright-eyed, witty Irish widow who
loves joke as only the people from her
country do. In the same Institution is
a stolid German professor who rather
admires the pretty widow. The two
often meet and indulge in pleasant
chats, The German professor is mar
ried and is the lord and master of a
happy family. The other day he
chanced to meet the Irish widow and
they entered into conversation, in the
course of which the witty widow bor-
rowed the professors ear and said:
Professor, / don't mOind telling you,
as you're married man, but have a
cork Leg The professor was sur
prised. He said he never would have
thought it, as he had never noticed any
limp. Mo- said the widow; land L
can dance with the best of them" The
professor marvelled greatly and said he
did not see how she could so success
fully disguise it. WELL" she said.
'I'll tell sou. professor. | have cork
leg because / was born in Cork" Thls
remark was made last Thursday. The
German professor thought it over until

HOW THEY DANCE ON TIPToE.
Ballet Girls Deny That They Ar,
Aided by Ihick-SOled Shoes.

Aided by Ihick-SOied Shoes.
Washington Post.
There is popular impression that
ballet dancers have the soles of their
shoes made stiff so as to enable them to
dance about on their toes.
'That is nonsense" and Miss Qualitz
Ia premiere danseuse) exhibited pair
of her dancing shoes to illustrate.
"You can't stand up this way with
your ordinary shoes on" and the pre-
miere gracefully mounted her toes and
viewed the reporters So footwear with
extreme disgust.
"a stiff sole in shoe would not help,
but absolutely prevent dancing. And,
besides, the strain is not on the toes,
but it comes on the rear of the ankle.
l believe that's what you Americans
call it. But by keeping the body in the
proper position much of the strain is
relieved and the dancer appears much
more graceful to those who understand
what correct ballet dancing is."
