BEAUTY OF FORM.
The Charm of Proportions in Both Man
 and Woman.

1 and Woman.
 Beauty of the human form is to-day exactly what it was in ancient Greece; it is the same through all the centuries, however blind we are to its character istics through ignorance. The census of ages is true verdict, and classic forms become safe models. Greek sculpture was wrought when the body received it's highest cultivation, and writes E. s. l.. Adams in Harper's Bazar.
 This sculpture should be carefully and continuously studied, as we'll as pie lures of good nude figures. They are to be made familiar, that one may learn why they are good, why they deserve admiration. Most people fancy they admire these classic models, but it must be in imagination only, else why should they allow themselves to exem- plify false standards of form, and posi- lively distort their own God-given bodies?
 Searching for the highest standards of human form, we discover that manly beauty and womanly beauty differ es- sentially. It is agreed that the type of manly proportion includes compara- lively large head, wide shoulders, rath- CT square, torso tapering to con- tracted pelvis; while the whole may be seven and one-half heads in height, or an additional half-head added to the length of the legs, giving a particularly elegant figure.
 On the other hand, fine proportions for woman are small head, shoulders rather sloping and narrow, the torso full and widest at the hips; while the front line from the sternum over the abdomen should show first gentle, and then full outward curve.
 The conventional figure of the day is at variance with this type. Every eff fort is made to initiate masculine char acteristics. The shoulders are thrust up high and square, or made to appear so, the torso is made to taper in, and everything under heaven is done to make the waist look small. The front line is forced to take an inward curve below the bust, and the side lines to form an awkward angle, in the hollow of which voluminous skirts are hung.
 One should study sculpture with the new knowledge of these proportions most thoughtfully, till the rhythm of the lines has fastened itself upon the mem- ory. Studying the pictures of the best artists of every age, we shall find these principles everywhere demonstrated.
 The charm of womanly proportion is in the long curve from armpit to ankle, which is so different from the beauty of a manly figure. The depression at the so-called waist line-only the meeting of two large muscles which in beauti- ful woman should be slight-would bet ter be ignored in the clothing, for the sake of the greater beauty of the whole sweep.
 It is to be understood that the long curves are made up of shorter contours, one gently melting into another. A form made up of graceful sweeps alone would be a weak, nerveless, insipid thing.
 These proportions should be so under stood, and so thoroughly appreciated, as to be always in mind, else a beauti- ful human form will not be recognized. Use physical exercises to attain the per lection of these curves. Hang pictures showing them where they may grow into yOur thoughts.

Last of a Famous Team.

A celebrity recently died after kind, useful life of thirty-eight years. His name was Jesse, and the one act which entitled him to mention was participa- tion in the funeral cortege of the mar tyred Lincoln. He was the last of the six white horses which drew the hearse containing the honored body along the streets of Indianapolis. His mate in the proud but sorrowful lead of the team died eight years ago.

INSIDE Elm Tor SIX weeks and ct the

From the NeiU York Tribune.
A great deal of anxiety is felt by the
family of William A. Martin. prominent
builder Of Harlem, over an accident that
happened recently to his son George. The
boy was taken i'll six weeks ago with an
attack, 1t was feared, of typhoid fever. The
nurse placed the thermometer beneath the
patients tongue to obtain his temperature
aud while waiting for the result, young
Martin was teiEed with a fit Of coughing
and the Thermometer disappeared.
The nurse looked around for it without
discovering trace of the instrument until
the patient gasped rather family: 81 think
swallowed it." The nurse could hardly
believe this at first, but when an additional
search failed to reveal the missing Their
mometer, and the boy reiterated that he
had felt it's smooth globular surface sliding
down his throat, his physician became
became alarmed aud took measures
at onca TO regain the instrument.
The patient was placed in a reclin-
ing position, head downward, but was
handled at the same time with much care.
to avoid any violence that might fracture
the delicate instrument which be had swal-
lowed. Various methods were tried to dis
lodge the thermometer, but without avail,
The patient recovered from his fever symp-
toms, but was kept in the house for more
than week by the physician, with strict
orders TO remain perfectly quiet.
He has not yet felt any bad result from
the Thermometer, and the physicians who
have been called TO consult in the case have
as yet been unable to locate it, although
now six weeks have passed since the in
strument disappeared. Harlem physi-
clans are deeply interested In the
case, which is almost without prece-
dent. The thermometer is several
inches long. Young Martin seems to be
in good health. He is IS years old and
attends school, but he is boy Of unusual
size, being nearly six feet tail. The only
discomfort which he experiences, he
says, is the caution which he is obliged 10
exercise in moving about. He cannot run
or play ball or wrestle for fear that an un-
usual or violent movement might crush the
thermometer, wherever it may be, aud the
result would then be serious. The glass can
hardly be expected TO dissolve, and he can
only wait for 1t to give some indication Of
its presence.

BALTIMORE, June 4.-Alestar 2. G ordon-
Cumming. who owns and works a 200 acre
farm near Sykesyille, in Carroll county, is a
brother and the next in line to Sir William
Gordon Cumming, now famous through
the baocarat scandal. The younger
son was possessed of only mod.
crate income. and he determined
United States and settle. He first established
himself on farm near the White Sulphur
Springs. He then started to breed horses
and cattle. This venture did not prove sue
cessful, and he moved to Carr oil county,
where he haE lived ever since. Re bought
the large farm formerly belonging to Col
Ignatius Gore, well-known citizen Of Bal
timore.
Soon after coming TO MARYLAND he was
married to Miss Ames, whom be had met at
the White Sulphur Springs. Miss Ames,
though from Washington, was a member OF
the old Ames family of New England. Mr..
Gordon-Cumming is an extraordinarily
handsome man. He Is over six feet tall
His complexion is forid in the extreme, and
he wears a cleAn-shaven face. Although
the farmers near him were at first a little
awestruck at his pedigree, his frank and
genial manners soon broke the ice,
aud now they are extremely fond
and proud Of "CumminEs,n as they
call him. They declare that be

and Washington he is lAso a great favorite
Each summer his handsome home is
thronged with visitors. Robert Garrett was
one Of his most frequent visitors before he
left Baltimore, and the navy circles OF
Washington provide q large opportunity
for Mr.. Cummings hospitality. Mr.. aud
Mrs Cumming spend the winter In Wash
ington each year.
In an interview this evening Mr.. Cum
ming said he thought the princes testimony
at the trial unjust.
"Have you any theory as regards the ac-
cUsation against Sir William, or have you
thought Of his alleged mode Of playp' was
asked. my mother said his father was
affected with st. Vitus' dance. Sir William
inherited it. He always had a fdgety way
with his hands. My mother used to say TO
him: For goodness scke, quit fidgetine.'
If Sir William played at cards he was con-
stantly handling chips like many men do at
faro tables. Sir William would repeatedly
break things In handling them. The wit
nesses may have thought they saw my
brother cheating when he was simply nerv-
ously handling his chips as have described.

The horse is the Sioux substitute for a
boat and it's figure appears constantly in
his pictorial masterpieces. In painting buff
falo robes the horse is the favorite symbol.
but domestic scenes and even humorous
incidents sometimes appear. A battle done
in pale red paint or a hunting scene is al
ways a favorite subject. A stern chase
after soldiers, the beef ration day at the
stockyard. or school and mission scenes are
some modern notifications Of robe painting.
A very few pots and bowls are still made
by the Rees or Arricksrees, a tribe OF
Pawnee stock, who have lived for many
years in villages nesr the MandRns and

Sioux squaws. II is made OF wood and en-
tirely covered with leather. A few years
ago full grown men among the Sioux sell
dom used saddles, but rode bareback or with
only blanket or buffalo robe thrown over
the horse and this frequently not attached
by strap or girth Of any kind.
Now they are beginning to use saddles
themselves somewhat.
