THOUGHTS ON OLD AGE.

The Aged are the Shields Of Those WhO
Come After Them.
The feeling must of necessity come
to many aged persons that they have
outlived their usefulness; that they arc
drags on the wheels rather than helping
them forward. But let them remember
the often-quoted line Of Milton
They also serve who onay stand and wait"
This is peculiarly true of them. They
are helping others without always being
aware of it. They are the shields. the
breakwaters of those who come after
them. Every decade is a defense of the
one next behind it. At thirty the youth
has sObered into manhood, but the strong
men of forty rise in almost unbrOken
rank between him and the approaches
Of old age as they show in the men Of
fifty. At forty he looks with sense Of
security at the strong men of fifty, and
sees behind them the row of sturdy sex
agenarians. When fifty is reached some
how sixty does not look so old as it once
used to. and seventy is still afar off. At
sixty the stern sentence of the burial
did not notice in former years. There
begins to be something personal about
it. But if one lives to seventy he soon
gets used to the text with the threescOre
years and ten in it. and begins to count
himself among those who by reason of
strength are destined to reach fourscore,
of whom he can see a number still in
reasonably good condition. The octo-
genarian loves to read about people Of
ninety and over. He peers among the
asterisks of the triennial catalogue Of
the University for the names of gradu-
ates who have seen seventy years out Of
college and remain still unstarred. He
IS curious about the biographies of CEN
tenarians. Such escapadeS as those of
that terrible old sinner and ancestor Of
great men, the Rev. Stephen Bachelor,
interest him as they never did before.
But he can not deceive himself much
longer. See him walking on a level
surface, and he steps off almost as we'll
as ever: but watch him coming down
flight of stairs, and the family record
could not tell his years more faithfully.
He cut you dead, you say? Did it occur
to you that he could not see you clearly
enough to know you from any other SOD
or daughter of Adam? He said he was
very glad to hear it. did he. when you
told him that your beloved grandmother
had just deceased? Did you happen to
remember that though he does not al
low that he is deaf, he will not deny
that he does not hear quite SO we'll as he
used to? No matter about his failings;
the longer he holds on to life, the long
er he makes life seem to all the living
who follow him, and thus he is their
constant Observation-Disclosures Wendell
Holmes, in Atlantic.

Lace is coming into use again. but it is
fiatly-en're deur, as the French say
as insertion around the skirt. Or in rows
across side breaths. A Louis Quinze
toilette. has pale blue satin skirt with
two broad insertions of old Mechlin lace
let in the satin above the hem; the
bodice is long Louis Quinze coat Of
light blue velvet. with a vest almost as
long of embroidered white satin, worn
with an enormous jabOt of lace. A black
marquise lace dress has for its vest and
side breadthS jetted net representing
two wide borders, like insertion, near
the foot, with small Nreaths or medal
lions of jet embroidery above.
The three colors of half-mourning-
violet, gray. and black with white-are
the favOrites of the season with Parish
ennes, who wear them out of mourning,
and the fancy for these quiet, refined
cOlors is seen here in every assembly of
fashionable dressed women. 1t is pre-
dicted that these cOlOrs will also be
favored for spring and summer gowns,
as French foulards and Chinese silks are
now being made with white grounds
dotted with black. or black with white
petit pots spots, and in each case wood
-violets, singly with long green STEMS
are scattered over the surface, and are
massed near one selvage as border
Fuchsias or petunias in reddish purple
shades are also set about singly on white
or purple grounds. A little velvet will
be used in trimming the bodice of these
gowns. and rows of velvet ribbon will
trim the skirt.
Suede. ashes-of-roses and other light
tan browns with little yellow in them
are in great vogue for white gowns that
are covered by long cloaks when worn in
the street and these colOrs are to be
brought out for early spring gowns in
fine wool serges, camefs-hair. cashmere,
etc. Borders of graduated stripes OF
darker shade will be added to many of
these light brown woOlens: others will
have for the skirt pattern of balls in
lengthwise rows. graduating smaller to-
ward the top; and all others will have
stripes that meet in four points
in the middle of the breadths in the Elf

stripes of different weaving, rather than

Especial Washington Letter.1


The old original Newspaper Row" is
= thing of the past. The growth of the
country has been kept pace with by the
growth of the Metropolitan daily news
papers; and as cOrollarJ of this fact,
the number of the Washington CORE
spondents has annually increased in so
great degree as to Overcr0wd News
paper Row and compel many of the rep
resentatives OF the daily papers of the
rapidly developing West to seek quar-
ters elsewhere. Some of the oldest
and most widely known correspondents
have been caught up in the rout and car
ried beyond the sacred precincts. Mr..
Z. B. Wright, formerly of the Chicago
Tribune, but for the past five years rep
resenting the Inter Ocean, has his office
around the corner on F street. w. B.
Shaw, often called the 'Nestor of the
Press" is on Fifteenth street, opposite
the Treasury. Judge Noah, of the Den
yer Tribune and Kansas City Times, is
two blocks away.
Newspaper Row is distinctively that
half block between Pennsylvania ave-
nue. and the Ebbitt House, on Four
feenth street 1t did not originally in
clude the B. & o. Building, but does
now. Turning the corner from the ave-
nue., and going north, the sojourner
comes to the stone steps which lead into
the fire-trap, the deathtrap known as
the B. & o. Building. Upon the second
floor we find Mr.. Roberts, of the Chicago
Times. He has two excellent rooms,
plainly furnished, and divides one of
Ilem with Conquest Clarke, of the New
York Star. Mr.. Roberts is new man
here, but is a very bright one, and is do.

In Favor of the Pending Bill
To Regulate Federal Elections and

He Wishes tho Bill Enacted Into Law
So That 1t May Become Topic Of Dis
cussion In tho Coming Campaign.
WASHINGTON, June 80.-The Sunday
Herald, commenting on President Har-
rison's attitude toward the Federal
Elections bill, says: president Har-
'ison has heretofore been given the
:redit OF at least deprecating, II not
actually opposing, the passage Of the
Federal Elections bill now under dis
,ussion In the House. But Saturday
The. President took occasion to declare
himself under the domination OF the
Reed wing Of the party and in favor Of
the bill
A gentleman who in the past has held
very close official and personal rela-
lions with the President related the
substance OF an interview between him
and the Chief Magistrate to a Herald
representative. 1t opened with q
declaration by General Harrison that
under no circumstances would he inter
fere, even by the remotest suggestion,
outside Of an official message, with the
action Of Congress. Then the Presi-
dent continued; "If they pass the Fed
eral Elections bill will sign 1t as soon
as 1t is presented to me for my consider
alton. 1 want them to pass that bill
and don't care who knowsit."
Subsequently the President said he
had, in desultory way, advised his
friends in both houses Of Congress &c
proceed asrapidly as possible with the
final enactment Of the bill, so that II
might become question Of discussion
in the coming campaign.
