The performance Of Tennyson &
Dawson's Gift Carnival and comedy
company, at Burwell Hall Monday
evening, was one of the best things OF
the season. All the features were
good. Mr.. Fred Morphet performed
many excellent tricks in the magic art,
doing them with much ease and per-
lection. The comical eccentricities OF
Prof. Majilton. the fantastic humorist,
were rich feature, while the songs
and dances of Miss Minnie McEvoy
and little Nellie Mccoy were well done
and greatly enjoyed. Miss McEyoy is
the finest female clog dancer we have
seen on this stage. NJ. James F.
Lamb is the best ventriloquist We have
heard. Unlike most others of his pro-
fession his voice is free from any ap-
parent strain or squeaking sound, and
it is impossible to detect any movement
of the lips or muscles of the throat
when he speaks. The rifle shooting of
Mr.. Su Tor was very good, while we
have seen much better.

Are Beautiful, Women Bappieste

In my life have known many women well.
Among them is fair majority of what the
truly appreciative would call happy, for
which fact I thank God, as it has helped me
to take, on the whole, hopeful view Of life,
as well as human nature. Now, are those
women, blessed as many of them are with de-
voted husbands, cheerful homes, cultivated
society, and leisure for the exercise of any
special talent they may possess, beautiful
women? With one or two exceptions, no.
Indeed, more than few of them are posi-
lively PLAIN, if feature only is considered,
while from the rest l can single out but two
or three whose faces and figures conform to
any of the recognized standards Of physical
perfection, But they are loved, they are
honored, they are deferred 30. While not
ehciting the admiration of every passer by.
they have acquired through the force, the
sweetness, or originality of their character,
the appreciation Of those whose appreciation
confers honor and happiness, and, conse-
quently, their days pass In an atmosphere of
peace and good viii which is as far above the
delirioHs admiration accorded to the simply
beautiful, as the placid shining of the sun
beam is to the phenom email blaze of an evan
escent flame-Anna Katharine Green In

The Beauties of Andalusia,

As regards her stature and mold, the
Andalusian girl is almost invariably a petite
brunette, and, although not all are plump
and many are too stout, the ajority have
exquisitely symmetrical tapering limbs, well
developed busts fiat chested women are al
most unknown in SPAIN, and the most
dainty and refined hands and feet. Regard
ing these feet Gautier makes the most as
founding assertion that without any poetic
exaggeration it would be easy here in Seville
to find women whose feet an infant might
hold in its hands. A French girl of or s
could not wear the shoes of an Andalusian of
90"
am glad to attest that, if the feet of Sc
william women really were SO monstrously
small fifty years ago, they are so no longer.
1t is discomaging to see man like Gautier
fall into the vulgar error of fancying that,
because a small foot is thing of beauty,
therefore the smaller the foot the more beau
tiful it must be.
If AndalQsian women really had feet so
small that a baby might hold them in its
hands, they would not be able to walk at all,
or, at least, not gracefully. But it is pre-
cisely their graceful gait and carriage for
which they are most famed and admired. All
Spanish women are graceful as compared
with the women of other nations, but among
them all the Andalasians are pre-emnent in
the poetry of motion, and this is probably
the reason that, although regular facial
beauty is perhaps commoner in Madrid than
in Seville, l find that you cannot pay
greater compliment to a girl in northern
Spain than by asking her if she is an Anda-
Msian.
IL H., 49, oolxz- l.
mals for gait comparable to that of the
women of Seville, Cadiz, Malaga and Grana-
da; and when you compare it to the motion
of swan on the water, fish in the water, a
bird in the air, it is the birds and the fishes
that must feel complimented. -Henry T.
Finck in Scribner.

Pin Money for Farmers Wives.

Pin Money for Farmers Wives.
Jersey farmers wives don't get many op-
portunities to turn into doaars the long hours
of midwinter, when the household cares of
the summer and fall have Nghtened. Some
New York employers, who know that time is
literally money in the city, regularly take
advantage Of this idieness in the country
from October to April One big clothing
manufacturer regularly employs scores of
women every winter in HHnterdon and War
rem counties. He sends an agenton week
with a wagon load OF cut and basted coats,
waistcoatS and trousers up among the farm
ers' wives in the sparsely settled districts.
Every farm house hes its sewing machine,
and every farmers wife is enough Of seam
stress to know how to make up good suit Of
clothes skiifuly. If she lives on the main
road the agent brings to her door as much
work as she is willing to undertake to do in a
week. If she lives away from the thorough
fare she goes to the nearest corner store and
meets the agent there. The completed work
is delivered and fresh work is received at q
regular hour each week.
The pay is small pitifully SO, but the farm
er's wife is mighty glad to get it. A dime
looks as big as dollar at that distance from
the metropolis in that particular direction.
twenty-five or thirty ceAts is all she gets for
finishing coat 1t would cost the clothing
man eighty or ninety cents to get the same
work done in bis New York shop, and that is
where his profit comes in. These women are
industrious. Even at the beggsrly rates
paid, some Of them earn SIS month, which
means great many confoFts in a New Jer
sey farmers household. The earnings range
from 81 to the s2o maximum, and pay day
comes once a month.-New York Sun.

Dressing the Baby.

A word in regard to the manner in which
Angio-Saxons dress our babies. It is afro
cious, and why we have so long adhered to it
is only to be accounted for upon the principle
of the old Pennsylvania Dutch farmer, who
balanced the grist in one end of his sack by q
bag stone in the other, because ''what was
good enough for his father was good enough
for him"
To put poor little doughty scrap of incipi-
emit humanity into series of petticoats yard
and q half long, with great wide bands, which
must be pinned around the little body, while
the helpless little head rolls about, and the
weak little neck is twisted and stretched, is
simply barbarous; and, because our grand
mothers did it" is no excuse for US.
All that is wanted is bit of soft wool or
silk vest, then, while the baby is very young,
an abdominal band fastened with three or
four bits OF tape, and finally slip reaching
quarter Of yard below the tiny toes, made
of flannel, muslin, anything-singie, doShle
or treble, at your pleasure, but which can be
taken off in a jiffy and replaced by clean,
dry one whenever necessary. What an econ
omy of mother patience and infant happi-

are eminently so.
