What IL n Hustler?

ICDlcaBo Tribune.
A young man who lives in Osh-
kosh Is one Of the best examplifica-
tions of hustler that has come
under the observation of this de-
partmcnt. He is u stenographer
and typewriter, and is employed by
three legal firms. He does all their
work, and that Of either firm is
enough 10 keep any ordinary man
busy. He attends to miscellaneous
work and does the correspondence co
of several large lumber firms. In
addition to these duties he is corre-
spondent Tor two daily newspapers.
He Is likewise n member of the
brass band, and any body who has
ever watched a brass baud in a town
the size of Oshkosh need not be told
how incessant are the demands
upon it. On the occasion of o re-
cent event the band was there, and
when 1t wasn't playing the young
man who is the subject OF this para
graph was reporting the proceed
ings Of the event for his two news
papers. He Is a hustler.

Washing Glass.

Marion Harland is authority for
the statement that If IA tablespoonful
of kerosene be put into four quarts
of tepid water, and this be used in
washing windows and mirrors, in
stead of pure water, there will re-
main upon the cleaned surface u pol
ish no amount of mere friction can
give.
We also find 1t stated that lamp
chimucys should never be washed In
soapsuds or clear water. If u cloth
wet with alcohol was used for this
purpose, or, what is mach cheaper
and always ut hand, kerosene oil,
there will be a perceptible falling OIL
In the manufacture and sale of lamp
chimneys. 1t is really surprising
how seldom chimneys will break
and what u fine polish will be given
by cleaning In kerosene or alcohol.

consideration. All colors, all tex
lures can not he worn by oil CON-
plexlons and figures. Neither can
the prevailing mode Of hnirdrcssing
be adopted by everybody regardless
of the shape Of the head and the out
lines of the face.
1t Is not vanity, but the most
practical sort of wisdom, which
made II imperative that every. wo-
man should look her best, and the
rule applies equally to men. Next
to manner, appearsncesis standard
and not wholly superficial one
upon which the world bases Its
estimate. The extremist In fashion
con fcsses her peculiar weakness,
quite as much as the untidy person
In fraycd gown, ripped gloves and
soiled boots.
There has been an attempt, mis-
chievous to the verge of malice, on
the part of dressmakcrs to revive
the trailing skirt for the street. "A
trained gown for the house-in
rooms where the floors are scrupul-
ously clean--is graceful aud pleas
ing. But, dragging through the
filth of the crossings, the dust and
the tobacco spit of the pavement,
nothing could be more inapproprl'
ate.
To business women, who must be
out In all sorts of weather, who
mnst journey long distances every
day by steam and horse cars, the
trained dress Is an Inconvenience
not to be tolerated for one moment,
whatever fashion may ordain. Nor
will business women ever adopt II,
at least those who possess that COM
mon sense which they are supposed
to possess. The best dissertation
ever written upon the subject was
by DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes, and
10 behooves women generally to
hunt 1t up, read 1t carefully and lay
Its instructions carefully to heart.
As to hairdressing, the woman
who has never "frizzled" Is to be
congratulated. The writer has
among her acquaintances tive
women who are naturally extremely
prepossessing In appearance. One
had very beautiful blonde hair
which was parted In the middle
waved naturally and was fastened
In a knot behind. In an evi
moment someone had persuaded hei
to "bang" 1t. II was then frlzzeC
aud her entire appearance was
changed; from u fair counterpart oi
Clytie, she became an ordinary look
ing woman, with n commonplace
mass Of frlzzes to which the iron
had given a tinge of dull red. The
other was past middle age, and
while her features were less regular
than the others, she had very fine
and intellectual face. She wore
gowns of soft, old-fashioncd silk,
rufiies of thread lace, and dressed
her glossy brown hair In n fashion
of other days, which accorded her
pretty face with her picturesque
attire. Suddenly she changed 1t,
and discarded her pretty, old
fashioned comb. Her features, miss
ing their becoming setting, lost even
the charm of expression, while the
innperfections of the features were
brought into bold relief.
Fashions have their uses, on occa-
sion, but there never was one that
could be, with profit or conve nience
universally adopted.

Little BOY Biue.


Eugene Field In America.
Tho little toy dog is covered with dust,
But sturdy and staunch he stands,
And the little toy soldier is red with
rust,
And his musket molds In his hands.
Time was when the little toy dog was
new
And the soldier was passing fair,
And that was the time when our ldttle
Boy Blue
Kissed them and put them there.
Now don't you 20 'till I come" he
said,
"And don't you make any noiseH'
So toddling off to his trundle bed
He dreamt of the pretty toys,
And as he was dreaming, an angle song
Awakened our lAttlo Boy Blue
Oh, the years are many, the years are
long,
But the little toy friends are true.
Aye faithful to Little Boy Blue they
stand,
Each In the same old place,
Awaiting tho touch OF a little hand,
The smile of u little face.
And they wonder, us waiting these long
years through
In the dust of that little chair,
What has become of our Little Boy Bluo
Since he kissed them and put them
there,
