why Women Are Fascinating.

The power of fascination inherent In
wnmen may. moreover. be divided into
two kinds. We all. says the Brooklyn
Eagie. have seen the old lady. generally
white haired. with kindly. pleasant
features. on which time has set no un-
friendly mark. who still retains all her
attraetiveness. Note how the boys and
girls adore her; they will go to her and
coniide their sorrows, their hopes. their
ambitions. and when they would not
breathe word to their mothers. The
kindly. loving interest evinced In q
lads affairs by such one has time aud
again first implanted the impulses In
the heart which eventually led him on
to an honorable career.
Quickly, almost by stealth. the good
Is done by such. and the good seed
sown which will ripen in after time
into rich and abundant crop. On the
other hand. we have most of US seen,
perhaps in real life. certainly on the
stage. the fascinating adventures who.
by her enthralling beaute de diable.
enslaves mems souls aud leads them
(on the stage) to dare all for her sake.
Such In directly opposed to the sweet
old lady ia her old-fashioned chair.
and these two form the opposite poles
between which the women who fasci-
nate vary.
Types differ. and any one you may
select has some position between these
two opposites. Take. for instance. q
pretty and may be witty woman who.
hardly of her own free will. makes
every man fall in love with her 70 a
greater or less degree. She may be in
nocent Of any evil intention. but her
position on the scale Is not vastly re-
moved from that of the melodramatic
sorceress- Or, again, take the instance
of the pretty young matron who, while
devoted to home. husband, and chill
dren. yet has several intimate friends
of the male persuasion. But her infiu-
ence is all for good. Her fascination
is exerted in a worthy cause, and she
has found out a great truth-that there
is no friendship so lasting. SO true. and
so pleasant as one between persons oil
opposite sexes. where a true feeling oi
bonne camaraderie exists and there Is
no pretense to love-making. Such a
woman, if she lives long enough. bids
fair to develop into snowy-haired old
lady on whose friendship the children
will rely.

from labor to refreshment long

"The largest pot of soup ever pre-
pared in America is that prepared
by the republicans for the reception
of the democrats in the seventeen
contested elections before the house
of representatives"
The republicans will seat 50 many
of these seventeen as are entitled
under the showing made by the com
mittee; no more and no less. 1t will
take more than a fraudulent ballot
to seat democratic member this
session. The fraud must be so slick
that the human hand cannot grasp
it or it will not go.

PRESENT indications seem to show
that the internal affairs of Germany
are slipping out from Bismarck's con-
troll. His master, the emperor, does
not blindly follow the lead of his
chancellor, and more liberal views of
the rights of the people seem to dom
mate the imperial mind than are
agreeable to the blood and iron min
lister. The foreign policy of Bismarck
has been uniformly wise and its sue
cess striking, and this very success
has so daZzled the eyes of Germany
that she has submitted to a domestic
policy by no means generally approx
ed. This condition of things shows
symptoms of change and the young
emperor appears to be taking the
helm of domestic gOvernm ent into
his own hands. The elections now
pending will mark an era in the do
nestle government of Prussia.
THE Austrian press has been 50 un-
