James Russell Lowell.

BY the death of James Russell Lowell
the country loses one Of its most emf
ncnt men. As thinker, writer and lee
turer Mr.. Lowell was one Of the strong
men Of his time. What he wrote had
the great merit Of seeming to have been
written because it was in him and had
to come out
0fthe highest scholarship and always
n serious man he was fond Of attacking
serious matters with the arrows of his
refined wit. Some of his best effects
were produced through the skillful use
of Yankee dialect, of which he was mas
ter The Bigelow Papers are a model of
this kind Of writing, and nothing in
that vein is likely to be better done.
Whatever he wrote charmed by reason
of its style.
As minister at the court Of St. James
Mr.. Lowell maintained the dignity Of
the Office and won for himself among
cultivated Englishmen such standing
as few Americans have achieved.
Formerly stout Republican Mr..
Lowell in his later years seemed to be
more in sympathy with the NIugwumps,
although he has taken no active part in
politics. 1t is rs scholar and writer
that he will be best remembered for rs
such he made his high place among his
countrymen.

Dress Reform.

These are the days of dress reform
movements, in which the great body Of
the people take small interest and in
which every man and woman, as we'll
as all who hope to be men and women,
are deeply concerned.
Dress reform is in the main directed
at the clothing OF women, although
men might profit by something of the
same kind. The greatest need of dress
reform lies obviously on woman's side.
Men, being the stronger physically, get
along better under a weight Of unneces-
sary garments.
Women should wear no more than is
required to make them genteel and COM
Portable. Nine women out Of ten are
injured by the clothing which custom,
to say nothing OF the passing fashion,
compels them to wear. No matter how
great an improvement may be suggested
it will have to be presented to them as
the fashion or they will not avail them
selves OF it.
The dress reformer who proceeds on
any other basis is doomed to failure at
the start. To catch the fancy Of fashion
the reform will have to work itself out
in slightly way. No woman except a
professional reformer will risk appear
ance for health and comfort.
The roformcrs who wish to reform
will have to bear these things in mind
or step to the rear with their prede-
cessors who have taken into no account
tho woman nature.
