The Oakland girls are the most in
dependent this side of Boston.
They start fashions of their own.
Several months ago a pretty little
bookkeeper for a large business firm
in this city on Sansome street had the
misfortune to lose an unreliable garter.
This discovery threw her into a panic
as she felt her stocking slowly, but
surely, slipping downward. There
was nothing within her reach that
could be temporarily substituted for
the much needed article. Presently
she had occasion TO place an elastic
band around a package OF papers, and
suddenly it occurred to her that one
might take the place Of the lost gar
ter, which it did most admirably. 1t
was found to be far more comfortable
than the regulation garter, and from
that day she has worn no other kind.
OF course she confided her new dis
covery TO her bosom friend, q type
writer in California street lawyers
office, and she, in turn, told her chum,
a stenographer, and so on until nearly
every young lady, who crosses the
bay, knows the secret, and. moreover,
at least half of them adorn their
limbs with elastic bands, and their
employees unwittingly pay for them

PrInces.es as Old Maids.

Numbers of foolish heads are wag-
ging over perfectly ridiculous rumor
to the effect that the Princess Victoria
and Maud of Wales have stamped
their little feet and made the startling
announcement that they will never
marry. Even il they ever said any
thing so silly-and even Princesses
cannot be always wise-it is certainly
a mistake to suppose that their mother
would encourage them in any such
very whimsical notion. The only
possible and very insufficient ground
for the stupid report is that Princess
Maud, in her pretty, petulant way
may have been heard to express the
opinion that she would never marry un-
less she really cared for the intended.
In that we may be sure, the Princess
of Wales, fondest and kindest Of
mothers-would support her, but any.
thing beyond that may be dismissed
as sheer nonsense.-Lady's Pictorial

He sleeps with one Eye open.

The New York Herald asks: dc
you notice how quiet and silent Mr..
Blaine is in these days? Have you
also noticed that when the Republi-
can party is specially stupid and blum
dering Mr.. Blaine always seems to be
asleep? Why is this thus? Well,
Blaine doesn't propose to hang him.
self just because his party is trying to
commit suicide"
Mr.. Blaine has the faculty OF doing
his sleeping with one eye open, and
while he is not saying much he is
probably doing great deal of think
ing. The new leaders OF the Republi-
can party ignored him in the tariff
legislation, and Mr.. Blaine smiled in
his sleep when he heard something
drop on Mckinley at the November
elections. He is now doubtless smil-
ing again at the discontinue of the
same leaders in the matter OF the
Force bill. 1t must make him think
that the Republican party has not yet
found bigger man than himself, and
that he can still give them a good
many points on practical politics.

what Newspapers Do.

The Gazette Says: "The news
paper men do more work for a town
and community than men engaged in
any other class of business. They are
expected to carefully guard all inter
est OF public nature, publish all the
news OF the day, watch carefully all
the local happenings, and in fact act
as sponsor for the whole community.
For all of this work they get nothing
comparatively speaking. The commu-
nifty does not appreciate the services
rendered them in the slightest degree.
They take it as matter of course that
the newspaper man has nothing to do
but look after their interest, and never
stop to think that it all costs money.
More especially is this the case in
smaller towns, where advertisers ex-
pect whole page of space to be de-
voted to their particular line for S.
per month";"

Iax GouId,s Appearance.

No matter how carefully people
read the newspapers just now, says
the New York World, it is doubtful il
the public has an accurate idea of the
appearance Of the greatest operator in
stocks who lived. Mr.. Gould goes to
bed every night at 10 o'clock, does not
drink tea or coffee, eats with great
regularity, and takes admirable care
of his health, but the pace has told
upon him nevertheless. Mr.. Gould
looks like a man whose entire physi-
cal strength had gone to his intellec-
tuals. His figure has become spare to
a point bordering on emaciation.
His formerly jet-black beard is gray
and his eyes are sunken and heavily
underlined with dark rings. Ills hair
and beard are not kept with the scrupu-
lous exactness that once characterized
them. A full look at his face when he
is not wearing his hat would inn
mediately impress one who did not
know the man. His face is that Of an
aesthetic, and the whole expression is
one OF intense thought. No man in
public life to-day has so distinctly the
look OF brain worker as Mr.. Gould.
His vitality, however, is something
AIMING, and the chances are that he
will outlive every big operator in Wall
street, because he takes care of him
self.

PRACTICAL ILLUsrRATIoN.

Miss Elizabeth was very peculiar
woman, says the New York Sun. She
had a great deal Of sense. Not that
she was different from other women
in this relation, but she had 80 much
OF it that it surprised many young
men. One young Robinson was also
very sensible. lie and Miss Eliza
beth were well matched. They could
talk together on any number of sub
jects, and they knew just when and
where to stop, just what to say and
what not TO say. On this particular
day, there was long story in the af-
ternoon papers about person known
as "Jack the Kisser," who bothered
many young women and girls in the
streets by catching them and kissing
them. Miss Elizabeth said that she
did not think that girl could be
kissed by any man unless she wanted
him to kiss her. Robinson said that
any man could kiss any woman by
brute force. Miss Elizabeth said that
was all nonsense. "I'll tell you what
we'll do" said Robinson; "yeu are
certain that a man cannot kiss a
woman unless she is party TO the
kissing. | am certain that a man
can. We--you and will try it,"
Miss Elizabeth said she did not see
any harm IN that, SO Robinson began
TO try to kiss her. After several min
utes and trials he succeeded, and she,
after seeing that it was useless to COM
bat him further, gave in and let him
kiss her all be wanted to. When it
was all over Miss Elizabeth had an in
spiration. "I'll tell you what we'll
do" said Miss Elizabeth; "my foot
slipped that time. Well try it again."

The Australian Ballot.

1t is a noticeable fact that the Demo-
Gratis everywhere favor the Australian
ballot law. Whatever opposition there
is to the measure now comes from
Republican Legislators. True it was
not always SO. At the outset many
Democrats who are opposed to radical
ehangaa frat antasoai-ea tho system.
The proposition now, however, has
passed the experimental stage. The
Australian or modified system OF the
same plan has now been thoroughly
tested in at least eleven States OF the
Union. In all the system worked
well, creating no friction nor compli-
cation. There is now no excuse for
opposition to the measure. The plain,
honest people OF every State where
the plan has been put in operation
would now oppose any change back to
the old system. This fact is especially
noticeable in Massachusetts, Indiana,
Kentucky and Tennessee.-Modesto

The Iumping Bean.

One Of the curious products of Mex
leo is the jumping bean, vegetable
curiosity, whose feats Of acrobatic
agility have never been fully ex-
planned by scientists. They .grow in
pods, each pod containing three beans.
Each segment is rounded on one side
and A shaped on the other, greenish
yellow in color, and in circumference
about the size OF lead pencil. When
placed on table they roll over and
skip about, sometimes actually jump
ing good two inches. When held
between the thumb and forefnger
they are felt to beat as strongly as the
throbbing of strong mans pulse.

ington has been acquainted with the
rarity since l854.-St. Louis Republic.

Ha Wa. Fond Of Girls.

The late George Bancroft, historian,
was particularly sensible to the charms
of young girls and he was wont to seek
the society of those innocent and at
tractive creatures. He would not suf-
fer the young folk to be overawed in
his presence; he had remarkable
powers of adaptability and his con-
versation with the young was always
delightfully."- simple, fascinating and in
structive. Insisting upon the utmost
freedom between himself and his girl
friends, he is said to have reproached
a Newport bud on one occasion some
years ago because she did not call
him George. Chicago News.
