FOR WHOM WOMEN DRESS.
Not for the Opposite Sex, But for Thei
Own.

Not for the Opposite Sex, But for Their
The idea that ladies who lavish enor-
nous sums annually in personal decora-
tions dress to fascinate their husbands,
lovers, or man in the aggregate, is a
vulgar error. A fashionable woman is
not half as anxious to win the admira-
tion OF the men as to provoke the envy
of her own sex. The truth is that gen.
tlemen, as arule, know very little about
the commercial value of female attire,
and Except when they are called upon
TO pay the bills) care less.
An elegant and becoming toilet, how
ever inexpensive, generally satisfies
them.
Not so our first family bellies and
dashing dowagers. Cost is their stand
ard of excellence in costume. And what
consummate sumptuary critics they are!
No trademan is better judge of the
articles in which he deals than the lady
of fashion is of all the articles her sis
ters wear With a single sidelong
BldnCc, rdplu, httu anu searching, she
can 'reckon up'' the habiliments of a
rival almost to shilling.
No pawnbroker, however accustomed
to gauge the price of costly trumpery
could come nearer the mark. Imita-
tion cashmeres, simulated lace and
false jewelry do not deceive her for an
instant. She sees through the cheat as
easily as banker detects forged note,
and sneers inwardly at the vain attempt
to cope with her genuine extravaganza.
She triumphs in the reflection that all
her splendors are sterling, and that her
"set," sharp-eyed as herself, can dis
tinguish between cheap fne-ladyism
and the ruinous grandeur it is intended
to cope with as well as she can.
But mole-eyed man sees not the diff.
ference unless it is pointed out to him.
Is it not perfectly obvious then that the
richly-bedight goddesses of fashion
dress to provoke envy in each other rath-
er than to command manly Worship
OF course they like to be admired by
men, but to be envied by women is q
supreme luxury.-Jury.

She Pinned Them Down.

1t was Bible, family Bible, a
Hell-worn family Bible-the Bible of
an old lady who read it, and walked
by it, and fed on it, and prayed over it
for long lifetime. AS she grew older
and older, her sight began to fail, and
she found it hard TO find her favoritc
verses. But she could not live without
them, so what did she do! She stuck a
pin in them, one by one, and after her
death they counted one hundred and
sixty-eight. When people went to see
her she would open her Bible, and, feel
ing over the page after her pin, would
say: Read there" or ''read here,''
and she knew pretty well what verse
was struck by that pin. She could in
deed say of her precious Bible: IL love
thy commandments above gold, yea,
above fine gold; they are sweeter to me
than honey and the honeycomb. DE

The Waiter Was Prepared to Enforce His
Demand.
The proprietor of French cafe in
Paris, on the Rue de Pontoise, was
very much annoyed by poor customers
who took advantage of the temporary
absence of the walters to step out with
out paying their bills.
Finally he put up all around the cafe,
inside, large notices-"Pay Before You
Eat" The principal dish was very
thin but palatable soup served in large,
deep bowls.
One day a man came in, and sitting
down before large bowl of soup
which had just been poured out, he be
gan to help himself.
A waiter came up and said, PAY Be-
fore You Eat"
81 guess not. l always eat first"
mot here. Our rule is, as you see,
pay first"
81 don't pay first" said the man, and
he continued to help himself to the
soup, when, to his intense astonish-
ment, the waiter pulled out of his
pycket an immense wooden syringe,
and dipping the nozzle of 1t into the
soup-bowl drew the soup all out of the
bowl into the syringe.
"Will you pay now?" said the waiter,
holding the syringe suspended over the
edge of the empty bowl.
The man concluded he would obey
the rules, as the waiter had him at his
mercy, and back the soup went.
The proprietor of that cafe must
have had little Yankee blood in his
veins. He would make his fortune in
America. a.-Youth's Companion.

TALE or A JOKE MAKER.
In Which the Public's Love for Moldy
Chestnuts Is Illustrated.

tu NhiCn tne EuDllcH Love lot MoIuy
Chestnuts Is Illustrated.
A professional humorist said the
other day: There is a great truth
about jokes which both readers and
writer's recognize in practice but do not
often formulate, 1t is this;
"a good joke improves no less with
age than the wine of Bordeaux
Once upon time there was a famous
speaker whose tolerably bad lecture
started off and ended with two of the
most exquisite jokes ever invented.
People travelled miles and sat patiently
through the same lecture year after
year to split their sides laughing at the
same old jokes, After the effect of the
Introductory joke had worn off there
was always perfect silence until the
lecture was three-quarters done, when
the anticipations of an audience which
had never been swindled would
begin to break out in gurgling laugh
ter, mods, winlss and whispers of ITS
comingw And when at last this we'll
seasoned old chunk of wit brought the
performance to a close the very roof
was raised.
But one fatal night there was bad
case of dyspeptic pessimism in a front
seat, 1t is true that when he roared
chestnut at the first joke the audience
nearly mobbed him, but the lecturers S
tender spot was touched. He prepared
new lecture which began and ended
with two absolutely fresh jokes. When
the lecturer walked upon the plat
form with his new manuscript in his
hand he received an ovation.
''The first new joke seemed to stupefy
the people. But few sentences of the
new lecture woke them up, and they
rose as one man and demanded their
money at the box office. At the next
town the lecturer affixed the old jokes
to the new lecture, and all went SC
well that he is still cracking them with
constantly increasing success" - Chi.

One Dollar Per Year,
PERSONAL AND LITERARY.

"A street preacher, John Guttzeit, in
Dresden, persists in walking about in
long, white, woolen robe, sandals and
wreath of green leaves on his head,
The police endeavored to interfere, but
Guttzelt pointed out tho costumes OF
oarsmen, polo players and bicyclists
and asked If his own was not as decent
and proper, And he won his ease.
The London correspondent of Poet
Lore says that when Robert Browning
was asked to take the presidency of the
English Shelley society, at the time of
its formation, he thought that if he ac-
quiesced he would be indorsing all
Shelley's action; therefore he at once
refused the request, on the ground that
he could not uphold Shelley with re-
gard to his treatment of his first wife"
Royalty is magnificent but cN-
pensive, if the following figures are to
be relied on. 1t is said that since Queen
Victoria's accession to the throne, the
royal family has cost the nation Sl73,-
113, 3,115, The prince of Wales has re-
colved about Sl7, 100, 900 of this, while
the empress of Germany has made away
with 81, 1856, the duke of Connaught
81, 1886, 900, and the Princess Louisa $780,.
600.
Mr.. Cornelius Vanderbilt usually
takes morning ride with his boys, all
OF whom are fond and fearless horse
men. Alfred, lad about ten years of
age, is the crack whip of the family,
and rides and drives much and well, es-
pecially at Newport. All of the chill
dren are fond of music. One plays the
banjo, another the the violin, and Ger
trude, miss still in her teens, is n ia
vorite pianist.
1t was the ever sweet and kind
duchess of Portland who persuaded her
husband to build hospital on his es-
state by the sale of jewels with which
he presented her on the arrival of their
little daughter, Dorothy, a year ago.
Now, in celebration of the baby's first
birthday, she has given a feast in her
magnificent rooms to the children on
the estate, with very substantial
memento of the day to take home with
them.
M. Rcnan is accustomed to spend
six months or more in meditation on
literary work after he has collected his
material. Then he goes into the coun-
try, and spends three months or more in
writing out the composition which al
ready exists in his brain. He corrccts
and revises with great care, and before
his volume is published, often has as
many as ten proofs of each page. In
striking contrast to this method is men
toned that of Miss Mary E.Wilkins, the
popular writer of New England stories,
who writes without copying her work.
The most serious attack made on
the authenticity of the Talleyrand
Memoirs is that of M. Aulard professor
of history at the Sorbonne. lie argues
that, from internal evidence, parts of
the papers have been suppressed, and
that the gaps have been clumsily con-
cealed. He suggests that the work was
done by Bacourt to screen the reputa-
ton of Talleyrand or royal personages,
as the published version of the Memoirs
does not account for the prohibition of
their publication for so many years.
The due de Broglie is said to have re.
piled evasively to Prof Aulard's chal.
lenge to produce the original manu-.
script.

THE BARBER'S CLOCK.
A Barber DispeDses With His TlmepIecs
to Help His Business.

bHTDer DlspeDbes WIN his llInepleCe
to Help His Business.
A New York jeweler says he knows a
barber down town whose long acquaint-
ance with Americans has taught him
not to keep clock. There's method in
his madness, too. These are his own
words:
"You are about the hundredth man
that has asked me about the clock.
Well, I'll tell you trade secret. You
know my customers are all business
men, and stop in two or three times a
week to be shaved. Whether in hurry
or not, they want to get through with
all possible speed. That's one of the
peculiarities of Americans. An Amer
lean may have all the time he wants,
but he'll rush his lunch and his barber.
$50 long as had clock in the shop
men would rush in here, take glance
at it, jump into the chair and tell me to
rush them through in ten minutes, as
they desired to catch train or keep an
appointment. If | didn't get through in
that time there would be row, and I'd
run the risk of losing a good customer.
After time took my reliable old
timepiece from it accustomed corner
and placed it beyond reach.
'"How does it work? Splendidly. The
first few days | could hardly restrain
myself from laughing, You know the
first thing an American looks for when
he enters into BARRIERS shop is the
clock. You should have seen the disap-
pointed faces the next few days. Every.
body rushed in with his accustomed
haste, glanced in the corner for the
clock, and, my! Well, you can imagine
the rest. Now, l can give everyone a
first-class shave, and no one knows just
how long take to do it, because there's
no clock here to make the occasion foi
scolding. g."-Jewelers' Weekly.
