Dressing Women.

have always held that women dress
women better than the male creature
can, writes a celebrated woman of fash
ion from Paris. Men have no sense of
the chiffon. They know how to outline
a fine figure. But there are so few
really statuesque beauties in the world!
Female dressmakers understand best
how to amuse the eye, to draw it from
defects of face and figure, and they are
full of tricks and stratagems which the
masculine brain is unable to evolve. A
dress made by clever dressmaker well
up in her business is designed with a
view to manslaughter. The other even
ing / was astonished at the fine art of
which Nine. c., the milliner, gave
proof, explaining to me how best to hide
the invasion of embonpoint," and to
seem slim when slimness is a thing OF
the past. The dress should be loose and
the draperies be kept as much as possible
in vertical folds, the straight line being
here and there departed from merely to
avoid monotony and stiffness. And the
sleeves ought to be of exaggerated
length, not wide, and pushed up so as to
wrinkle like the mousquetaire glove. II
they are made to wrinkle all the way up
to the shoulder, SO much the better.

A Weird Legend of the Potomac.
,nt.uadaInhta Daaord


There are three big rocks in the Poto-
mac just above Georgetown called the
Three Sisters, after three mythical maid
ems who persisted there in some romantic
way centuries ago. Strangely enough,
they mark the saddest part of that beau
tiful stretch of river, for it is at that
point that boats usually upset and swim
mers usually drown. But strangest OF
all is the fact that on the night before
such death the people living on the
shore hear the Three Sisters softly moan.
ing-a sound distinct from every other,
and never heard save on such occasions.
Wednesday night, for example, just as
the Georgetown college clock struck ~,
the moaning sounds came floating ashore
from the Three Sisters, and on Thursday
noon shell capsized as it passed them,
and its owner was drowned

Human Leather,

An officer OF the marine infantry, who
commanded the penitentiary of st. Mary
q la Comte, in New French Guiana, late
ly died Of diseases contracted at that in
salubrious station The inventory of the
objects he left behind him comprised
a very curious cuirass, with straps and
other accessories. On examination it
proved to be of human skin. A convict
had died whose breast was covered with
extremely beautiful tattooing The com.
mandant of the station knew this, and
had the man fayed before he was buried
For moment it was thought that this
human relic would have been put up for
auction with the officers other effects,
but, fortunately, it occurred to somebody
that it was rather too disgusting. 1t was
known that the officer had worn the cui-
rass several times when fencing with his
comrades.

Fatal Struggle with a Tiger.


Details are given in the Indian papers
of the painful death Of Mr.. Howard, of
the Norfolk regiment, from injuries re-
ceived in a struggle with tiger Mr..
Howard was out shooting near Malapu-
ram, on the west coast, when he sudden
ly came upon tiger. He fired and
wounded the animal, which fed into the
jungle. Mr.. Howard an hour later came
across the tiger in the open The animal
charged at him, and Mr.. Howard in fir
ing missed. Two natives ran away.
Though third remained and was sue
cessful in shooting the tiger, he did not
succeed in time to prevent it from seiz-
ing and inficting serious injuries on Mr..
Howard. From these he was at first ex-
pected to recover, but he died suddenly,
to the great regret of his regiment, one
morning shortly after his exciting strug-

Hurled Over the Falls.

A man was rowing a boat above the Great
Falls in the smooth and placid water. All I'M
conscious of his danger, he allowed himself to
drift with the current, which was at first slight,
gradually Increasing in momentum, until at last
his rapid whlrling and the sullen roar Of the
cataract brought to his suddenly awakened
senses a full realization of his awful peril-too
late. He was seen in the boat for moment
poised upon the brink of the abyss, and then he
was plunged headlong to destruction.
What lesson can be drawn from this terrible
fate through needless earelessness! Too often
we neglect little weakness, slight nervous
ness, the tired brain, sleepless and restless
nights, from which we wake unrefreshed, a weary,
languld feeling, headache, confusion OF mlnd'
dullness, loss Of memory, strange sensations, &C.,
not knowing that nervous and mental prostra-
tlOn, with that most awful fate-insanity-wil
result. How slow we are TO understand the
danger in the cold feet and limbs, the slight
numbness, trembling, prickling sensation, or ex-
IRENE WEAKNESS of the limbs, and realize that
sure paralysis will follow on neglect. We often
disregard the weakness and languor Of nerV'
GUS debility and malaria, the disorders OF the
stomach, liver or kidneys, until chronic, If moi
fatal, disease fastens upon our systems.
Donot, like the careless boatman above the
falls, allow yourselves to drift placldly on the
river Of life toward sure destruction. 1t is sheer
est folly to do So for all these nervous and pbysi
cal ailments can be perfectly and completely
cured by that wonderful remedy, DR.. Greenei
Nervura, which can be purchased at any drug
gists for $1.00 per bottle. The remedy is purely
vegetable and harmless, and VIII be found thu
creates brain, nerve and blood invigorant in tn,
