BEAUTY OF FORM.
The Charm of Proportion In Both Man
and Woman.


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 characters
tics through ignorance. The census of
ages is a true verdict, and classic forms
become safe models. Greek sculpture
was wrought when The body received its
highest cultivation, and was so beautiful
Is to be called divine.
This sculpture should be carefully and
continuously studied, as well as pictures
of good nude figures. They are TO be
made familiar, that one may learn why
they are good, why they deserve admira-
ton. Most people fancy that they adj
mire these classic models, but it must be
in imagination only, else why should
they allow themselves to exemplify false
standards of form, and positively 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. 1t is agreed that the type of
manly proportions includes a compare
lively large head, wide shoulders, rather
square, torso tapering to a contracted
pelvis; while the whole may be 1-2
heads in height, or an additional half
head added to the length of the legs, Civ
ing particularly elegant figure.
On the other hand, fine proportions for
q 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 ecntle, and then a full
outward curve.
The conventional figure of the day is at
variance with this type. Every effort is
made to initiate masculine characteristics
The shoulders are thrust up high and
square, or made to appear so, the torso is
made to taper in, and everything undcr
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 memory.
Studying the pictures of the best artists
of every age, we shall find these princi-
cles everywhere demonstrated.
The charm of womanly proportion is
in the long curve from armpit to ankle,
which is so different from the beauty of
4 manly figure. The depression at the
so called waist line-only the meeting of
two large muscles which in a beautiful
woman should be slight-would better
be ignored in the clothing for the sake of
the greater beauty of the whole sweep.
1t 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 weak, nerveless, insipid thing
These proportions should be so under
stood and so thoroughly appreciated as
to be always in mind, else a beautiful
human form will not be recognized. Use
physical exercises to attain the perfec-
ton of these curves. Hang pictures
showing them where they may grow into
your thoughts, [Harper's Bazaar.

Work, according to my feeling (says
Humboldt), is as much a necessity to
man as eating and sleeping. Even those
who do nothing which to a sensible man
can be called work, still imagine that
they are doing something. The worl!
possesses not a man who is an idler il
his own eyes.

PARNELL's DEFEAT
In the Carlow neutrality-suspicious. OF
the Irish and English Press.

LONDON, July 9.-The Times, COM
menting on the Carlow election, warns
the country that the collapse of Parnell
means the domination of the Irish
priests, who have always hated the Ma
tonalist movement, and therefore the
condition of the McCarthyite's is little
better than Parnell's.
"Whoever;" says the Times, "becomes
the leader of the Irish party will be
merely the puppet of the Irish hie-
rarchy. If either the English Glad
stonians or the Irish Home Rulers inn
agine that the priests will play their
game they will be grlevously disap-
pointed"
DUBLIN, July 9.-The Parnellite
press is exceedingly downcast over the
result of the Carlow election.
The Freemdn's Journal says there Is
now no more chance OF getting Home
Rule for Ireland than there IS Of getting
the moon" "The electors" the Journal
adds, "have abandoned their indepen-
dence for the British party yoke"
The Conservative Dublin Express
says that the English will learn from
Carlow that 1.-THE Irish tenant farmer,
when not actuated by insane land hun
ger, is puspet in the hands of Roman
Catholic priests, and as unfit to be an
elector IS If he were an infant or
lunatic."
The National Press, the Mccarthy
organ, naturally is jubilant and says:
ssThe Carlow men have dealt the death
blow to the faction of Mr.. Parnell, from
which there is no longer any peril. 1t
Is merely a temporary nuisance. The
insolence of the self-constituted dictator
has been rebuked."

BILE loss in the architectural line at

pianos stored on the three floors and
the cellar Of their large place. Three

Convention OF the Young Peoples soclety
at Minneapolis, MINI.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, July 9.-Last
nights trains as well as those OF this
morning brought thousands of delegates
TO this city for the International Young
Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor
convention, which met this afternoon in
the Auditorium of the Exposition build
ing, the committee had planned for an
attendance of $4,000 but nearly every
delegation thus far arriving is larger
than anticipated and all are not yet
here.
The annual convention was formally
called to order shortly after o'clock by
DR.. Clark. There was a preliminary
service of prayer and music and then
Frank 3. Daniels. chairman of the local
committee, made the opening address OF
welcome.
Rev. Robert Christian, D. D., OF the
House of Hope, Presbyterian, well
coined the convention in behalf OF the
pastors of ST. Paul. John P. Elliott,
the local secretary of the Y. M. c. A,
concluded the address of welcome by
extending the hand Of fellowship to the
organization which represented so
grandly the advancement of the work.
Fully 10000 were In their seats, when
President Clark raped for order. For
his annual address President Clark had
chosen the topic, Fidelity and Fellow
ship" which he said, marked the
basis of the society. He contended
that these two features are necessary TO
each other. Fidelity and fellowship
may win the world for Christ.
This society had unswervingly from
its birth stood for fidelity to the church
of God and to the local church. The
Society of Christian Endeavor is one OF
the church family. The further idea Of
fellowship, be believed, was founded on
the sentence in the Apostles creed: 81
believe in the communion of the saints. j"
Now" he continued, ''for million
young hearts in thirty evangelical de-
nominations in every realm on the
globe, the day has come when Christian
fellowship is an inspiring reality, and
every church will be stronger because
OF this fellowship"

in plain black dresses and sun bonnets

NABBED BY OFFICER WEST.
A CoIored Thief From Taylorstown
Hauled In.

Wednesday night telephone message
was received vat police headquarters
from Taylorstown, Pa, asking the police
to be on the lookout for negro VINO
had just stolen two violins and watch
chain from man named John hearns.
Yesterday afternoon Officer Jack West.
who can most always smell game from
afar, happened TO be strolling about
town, when he bagged his Identical
man. He was just walking leisurely
across the Main street creek bridge,
watching the operations on the new
structure, when Officer West accosted
him thusly:
"What are you doing with that
violin?" asked Jack.
"Me? Why, 1 belong to the Martins
Ferry Band" said the colored fellow.
"Whom DO you know over at Martins
Ferry?" asked Jack.
'Oh, I know Bill Dean and Jack and
Charlie somebody, and several others"
"Well, guess you better come along
with me-" said Jack.
The fellow was taken to the Police
Station with his violin, which was
neatly enclosed in case. Upon arriv-
ing at the station the officers proceeded
TO cross-examine him.
"You say you belong to the band in
Martins Ferry; let's see If you can
play?" asked one OF the officers.
The fellow tried to play, but made a
dismal failure of it.
D"Oh, play somethin' else in the band,
do. l play an otto-harp," said the fell
low.
whats an otto-harp?" asked the
officer.
"Oh, don't you know what an otto
harp is; why an otto-harp is "a otto
Larp?"
The officers concluded the fellow was
trying 10 bunco them on music, aud
tried other tactics to see if they could
not find the rest Of the stolen pr property.
The fellow finally caved and said that
the other violin was hidden in
the grass back of a shanty in Taylors-
town. He stated that he did not steal
a watch chain. He will be held to
await the arrival of the officers from
the neighboring state.
