A Sensible Woman.

"Just what all of this evolution in
the matter of dress skirts will end in,
goodness only knows!" exclaimed
young society woman, as she shook
out the skirt OF one OF her tailor cos.
tunes, and Examined it's soiled. frayed,
and worn out hem with an expression
of annoyance and disgust, in the pres
ence OF writer in the New York
Ledger. "But one thing is certain, 1
am not going to wear half trailing
skirts on the street this winter. My
dresses are to clear the ground, fash
ion or no fashion. I am not going to
ruin my health and my temper with
such denominations, even though all
the world disapprove.
"There is new model which prom
ises to be a favorite style, and l think
l will adopt it. 1t is cut in eight cores.
and is walking length. Each seam is.
finished with band OF flat passemen-
terieie; and band OF the same gar

placed just over the upper edge of the

founces, and no more fullness at the

A Tea Drunkard.

The New York Commercial adver-
tiser says the tea district in Water
Street is haunted by a very odd sort
OF a broken-down old man. He was
once a tea faster, one of those fellows
who can tell the growth, condition
and worth of agrade of tea by slipping
a spoonful of it. They never swal.
low these samples, for in the course Of
a day they mountup to quart or so
OF the strongest kind OF tea, and are
invariably expectorated. The old man
developed fondness for the LIQUID
and took to swallowing his samples.
One day he had a fit OF the nerves
that scared everybody out OF the office
and lost him his sposition. Since then he
has been going upon tea rackets with
great regularity, and the quantity
that he can dispose OF at a sitting is
astounding. His nervous system Is a
complete wreck. and from present ap.
pearances it isn't likely, that he will
live upon the brokers' charity much
longer.

Tne wedding rIower.

The Towering OF the "Wedding
Flower" at Kew this year, says the
London Garden, is an event of more
than ordinary interest, both to boto-
nists, and horticulturists. 1t is the
giant not only OF the genus Iris, but
OF the whole natural order to which it
belongs.
1t is found wild orly small
island off the east coast of Aus
tralia, thousands of miles distant
from the habitat of any other Iris.
Whilst all other Irises may be grown
out OF door, or with only little pro.
lection in winter. this one is happy
only when treated to subtropical con.
ditions. Its value in horticulture is
due az much to it's stature and ele
gance of foliage as to the size and beau
ty of its numerous flowers.
The flowers last only one day, but
there are so many OF them that the
Towering season extends over a lonf
period.
This Iris is known far and wide al
the wedding flower.
The Dickinson press., 1891-12-05

Your Apollo never evoked a musical
note. Your god Ceres never grew a
harvest. Your goddess of wisdom,
Minerva, never knew the Greek alpha
bet. Your Jupiter could not handle
the lightnings, But the God whom I
proclaimed on the day when Paul
preached before the astounded assem-
blage on my rough heights, is the God
OF music, the God of wisdom, the Goa
OF power, the e-God OF mercy, the God
OF love, the God of storms, the God Of
sunshine, the God of the land, the
God of the sea, the God over all,
blessed forever"
Then the Acropolis spake and said,
as though in self-defense: "My Plato
argued for the Immortality of the
soul, and my Socrates praised virtue,
and my Miltldes at Marathon drove
back the Persian oppressors."
Eyes, said Mars Hill, "your Plato
laboriously guessed at the immortal
ity OF the soul, but my Paul, divinely
inspired. declared it is fact straight
from God. Your Socrates praised
virtue, but expired as asuicide. Your
Miltiades was brave against earthly
foes, yet died from O. wound ignomin-
ously gotten in after-defeat. But my
Paul challenged all earth and all hell
qa!M this battle-shout: 'We wrestle
not against flesh aed blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against
the rulers of the darkness OF this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high
places, and then on the 29th of June,
in the year Sc, on the road to Ostia,
after the sword of the headsman had
given one keen stroke, took the crown
of martyrdom.'
After q moments silence by both
hills, the Acropolis moaned out in the
darkness: "Alas! Alas!" and Mars Hill
responded: "Hosannah! Hosannah!"
Then, the voices OF both hills became
indistinct. and as l passed on and
away in the twilight, seemed to hear
only two sounds-a fragment of Pen.
telicon marble from the architrave of
the Acropolis dropping down on the
ruins OF a shattered idol, and the other
sound seemed to come from the rock
on Mars Hill, from which we had Just
descended. But we were by this time
so far off that the fragments o sent.
enes were smaller when dropping from
Mars Hill than were the fragments OF
fallen marble on the Acropolis. and l
could only hear parts OF disconnected
sentences waited on the night air

blood all nations '-"appointeda a day
in which he will Judge the world"-

Be Neat.

Dear girl, be neat! Beauty is ar
accident, and it is only given to &
very few to be what is called sfascin-
ating," brit it lies in every woman's
power to charm by her perfect neat
ness. I don't mean you should be
primly neat, nor screw your pretty,
soft hair into tight old-maidlsh
knots, nor fairly rustic with starch,
but be dainty, sweetly neat, have
your hair tidy and secure, and your
linen stainless. Charlie may find a
certain sweet disorder in your dress
very charming now, but when you
and he are married and have a
home of your own, he will be very
apt to term that same little mat
tention to details untidiness, and
even, perhaps give it a harder name.
But you will be more careful then?
No, you won't my dear, for the habit
you think so weak and easily thrown
off is each day welding q chain OF fine
unbreakable steel, and some day
you will waken to find yourself
Its slave. "Oh, what IL SOL
emn face Aunt Patsy wears to-
day?" you laugh; but, then, you see
the subject is SO solemn. A happy
marriage depends on triHes, wearing
easily, cften far more than on the ex-
hibition of nobler, loftier traits. 1t
isn't often we are called OH for the
display OF any great heroism, or self
denial, or courage, but it is a daily
duty for a woman to see that her hus-
band ls comfortable, to see that his
clothing is mended, brushed, and at
his hand, that his home is we'll man-
aged and neat, that she herself is a
pleasure for him to look upon. Man:
a pair of welded hearts found the first
rift within the lutte in the form OF E
missing shirt button, q broken tape
Or trowsey head and slipshod shoes.
1t may rather rudely shake your ro-
mantle idea OF what love is, but it is
nevertheless true that genuine post.
matrimonial love shines all the bright
er for the best man alive when the
wife is neately and becomingly dressed.
Therefore, dear girl, beneat.-St. Lou

AN OCTOBER LYRIC.

Sing me song of October, song Of the
sleeping hills
In mist-veiled robes OF purple, jewelled
with rippling rills;
Sing of the shining sea, that lazily, lanquid-
ly lies
Blue as the white-frilled curtain hung in
the motionless skies.
Sing Of the whispering woods in the hush
Softly chiding the wind for stealing their
leaves too soon,
And of the wee wild birds, half tame in the
languorous calm,
Dipping into the pools forgetting all fear
OF harm.
Sing of the chrysanthemums, with their
ragged splashes of light;
Saffron, amethyst, pink, gold and cardinal
bright;
Sunsets radiant hues in the sunset of the
Laid on neutral background of grasses
dull and sere.
What shall the music be-a ballard, stirring
Or shall the words be set to a sad and sor-
rowful lay?
Harkl The sea to the mountains drowsily
murmurs REST"
And the falling leaves are signing, "Slum-
Der, repose is best"
Sing then, a lullaby that is neithe, grave
Leaving out the tomorrow. forgetting the
yesterday;
Only the peaceful present with neither
promise nor pain;
And, oh, my singer, sing IN childhood'>
careless strain.
A perfume haunts the music-is it Of
springs frail flowers?
The words are echoes dim of Summers pas
sionate hours;
And last Octobers pictures of things that
might have been
Rise with the words and music as through
curtain seen.
All mel Thatlast October-its promise and
its light!
The dear, dear face that hallowed it, the
hopes that made it bright!
But November's twilight darkened, the win
ter's night crept on
Ah, cease thy lay, my singer, the time fol
song has gone.
-Millie Nelson, in the Morning Call.

Entertaining Facts and Theories
About Their Singular Perceptive
Powers.
The way in which blind horses go
about without getting into more diff
culties than they ordinarily do is very
remarkable. They rarely if ever hit
their heads against fence or stone
wall. They will sidle off when they
come near one. A writer in q London
journal says:
"It appears from careful observa-
tion l have made that it is neither
shade nor shelter that warns them OF
the danger. On an absolutely sunless
and MINDLESS day their behavior is the
same. Their olfactory nerves doubt
less become very sensitive. for when
driving them they will poke their
heads downward in search of water
fifty yards before they come to a
stream crossing the roadway. 1t can
not be an abnormally developed sense
of hearing which leads them to do this,
for they will act alike though the wa
ter be a stagnant pool.
"Nlen who have been blind for any
length OF time develop somewhat SINH
lar instincts to blind horses. Some
one says that none OF the five senses
has anything to do with this singular
perceptive power, but that theimpres-
sions are made on the skin of the face
and by it transmitted to the brain,
and this 'unrecognized sense he calls
facial perception But possibly this
perceptive power may have its origin
in such conditions as prevail in somn-
ambulism or in the ypnotic state. Are
all such phenomena in man and horse
as have mentioned tG be accounted
for by words facial perception if
they mean anything? However, speak
ing of blind horses, why should they
cast their coats as winter comes on
and grow long coats at the ad-
vent of summer and so reverse the
order which is the invariable rule in
the case OF horses possessed of perfect
v;a;or9D
