Women's Figures in France.

In any assemblage of Trenchwo-
men from ball in the Faubourg St
German to bal de iOpera the num-
Der of admirable figures in very strik-
ing the face may be positively COM
mon, but the figure is nearly sure to
be superb. The wasp-waist SO much
affected across the Channel is appar-
emily confined to fashion plates de-
sigued for expectation. The unwis-
dom Of tight-lacing is evidently not
more perfectly appreciated than its
unsightliDess, though the relations of
hygiene to beauty are thoroughly un-
derstood. With this excellence of
figure generally goes a corresponding
excellence of carriage; in this respect
the skill with which the Louis Quiuze
heel is circumvented is beyond praise.
Aud with regard to the tact and taste
displayed ia the garb which decorates
this figure and carriage the world il,
/ suppose, as well agreed now as 10
the time when the Empress set its
fashions for II ia a more iuexorable
way than the women of the present
republic can pretend to. France is
still, II not the only country Ia the
world where dress is an art, at least
the only one where the dressmak or
and the milliner are artists.-W. G..
Browneil, in the January Scribner's.

South KentuckyC College,
The next Session will begin
SEPT. 4,

This school has an envisble record for the
thorough methods of teaching pursued
Old fossilized ideas of training and decipline
find no place in its management.
The Crsmning process in Education lie
studiously avoided, as well as the machine
methods of many, SO called, grade schools.
To know from memory is good, but to be
able to know by thought is better. Pupils are
Encouraged to the excrcis, OF all their better
powers.
The faculty will remain, as 1t has been for
year past except the place of Prof Dabney
will be supplemented by PROF. FLEMING.
1t twill be seen. therefore, that the faculty
consists of the same number Of professors and
teachers ana that all the advantages usually
offered are still to be obtained as any former
session.

In the morning Of life she cometh
forth radiant as the springtime, decked
in ribbons and fine raiment and the
bloom of youth.
She arrayeth her head in false hair.
and bangeth the front portion thereof
She playeth on the piano and singeth
in the best room, and doeth many 9TH
er unseemIy things.
In the winter she sleighrideth with
her best young man till he is sore per-
picked over his livery bills and the
liveryman refuseth to be longer stood
off.
In the summer she eateth ice cream
until her young man mortgages his lots
and his houses and all h,s possessions.
and has even put his clothes into soak
for the cost thereof.
She leaneth long before the glass and
maketh her wardrobe with great care
and she is given to much painting Of
tie cheeks, and seeketh by strategy to
cover up the mole that roosteth on her
nose.
When she ,1ineth with her bean she
minceth over the dainties with much
delicacy. Dnt when she eateth in the
kitchen alone she gobbleth down beans
and onions with great vehemence and
in much quantity.
When she is yet in the bloom Of life,
she marreth.
And she goeth into the pastry for to
make some cake for her hubby, and
she succeedeth after fashion. And
when the cake is baked, behold! they
sell it to the miller for a mill stone,
and it maketh good one.
And her hubby eateth her cooking
and dieth. And she putteth on
mourning and weepeth at his funeral.
Thus in he midst of life she bloom
eth out again and maketh herself fair
to look upon
And in an evil hour, when she reek-
est not, she marrie,h second time.
And behold the last husband is worse
than the first, for he surviveth her

eth consolation in the flowing bowl.
And he squandereth her wealth and
refuseth to work, and thus is she
brought down in SORROW and poverty.
