The small whiskbroom, or busting
brush, is the only weapon against the per-
meating enemy of an orderly house
keeper-dust. Every well organized per-
son should possess n broom for the
clothes. This should measure about
eight inches, and be made of stout
broomstraw. mounted with an ivory
handle or in silver; the first may be
bought for a quarter of a dollar, the lat
ter for any prlce one desires to give. 1t
is but safe to add another broom to any
room, as servants have a rare knack of
using the brush for ones garments to
hasten trash into the dustpan after
sweeping or to brush up the hearth OIL
freshen a chair, all of which leaves a
nice little debris hidden in the broom, to
be deposited on ones best hat or coat.
Hence it is wise to place two brooms in
every chamber; and since they litter up
a corner and give an untidy look, it is
also seemly that each should have a case
or holder for its receptacle when out OF
use. For the better broom for toilet pur-
poses our cut displays a case simply
fashioned of two pieces of ribbon.
These may be selected in any colors suit

govern the choice.

width and the other wide, making to

A New Yorl Nsr.p.psr Woman.

Miss Matte Collins Williams, of Ten
nessee, is employed on The Commercial
Advertiser. She has her desk in the
Office and draws her regular salary.
Before engaging exclusively in news
paper work she carried on q tobacco
farm in Georgia and was known as the
Woman Farmer" That she did not
give her whole attention to agricultural
matters is attested by the fact that she
wrote a novel for Mr.. George B. Munro,
and with the money thus earned lifted a
mortgage which had been placed upon
her broad acres. She is a very clever
writer, having the versatile talent which
would make her useful in any newspaper
office.

Mrs. Frank Leslie is a native of New
Orleans, but she has long been a resi-
dent of New York. All the world knows
that she is a woman of indomitable
energy and the rarest business tact.
She had been for many years engaged in
newspaper work before she became the
head of the publishing house which bears
her name. The business came into her
hands in June, 1881. 1t was under great
financial embarrassment, and at one time
for the want of $50, 900, the sum neces-
sary to meet immediate obligations,
threatened to collapse. Had the help
which came dropped from the clouds il
could not have been less expected.
A boy of 10 or 10 years of age, who
had been in Mrs. Leslie's employ,
CHANGED to see Mrs. Leslie just when she
had expended all her resources without
avail to raise the money. He inquired
how she was prospecting, and some i'm
pulse seized Mrs. Leslie to conide in the
boy. Badly enough" she said; 'if !
do not get S5O,000 within three days i
shall not be able to go on"
Il think can get it for you" said the
boy.
Your she asked in establishment;
"how could you command SO much
money!
~ know IN old couple who have it,
and l think l could induce them to lend
it to you" he replied.
The money was obtained and the bust.
ness saved.
Eight years after she sold Frank Les.
lies Illustrated Newspaper to Mr.. Arkel
for 800 900. She now controls foul
monthly and four annual publications.
She attends to all her financial business
herself, and is never absent from her
office during business hours, except when
taking a summer vacation in Europe, or
when on a business or lecturing tour.
Her publishing offices are on Fifth ave-
nue.. She has elegant apartments at the
GerlAch, on Twenty-seventh street, where
during the winter she receives her friends
every Thursday evening.
OF late, fearing that her literary repu-
tation would be lost in her business sue
cess, she has been writing articles for
various syndicates. These she dashes off
in the middle of the night, sleeping be-
fore and after.
She is a member of the Woman's Press
club, of New York.

Two years ago Mrs. Letter, of Chicago,
introduced the custom of bringing out
debutantes Mt the beginning of a Wash
ington season. She presented her first
daughter then; this winter her second
girl makes her bow. Miss Letter No. 9
is a very pretty girl. ShFSs western
girl, which is in her favsy for girls
from the south and west are the girls
nowadays. She is slender and has a
wealth of glossy hair; but her greatest
charm is in her eyes. They are large
and clear and wonderfully gray, like
those of SCOTS Helen-"'The gray of
early morn, between the black Of night
and blue of day" Miss Letter has been
educated abroad and is accomplished
and graceful. She promises to be a so
cial favorite. The Letters live in the
Blaine mansion.
Miss Carroll, the daughter of the ex-
governor of Maryland, will be presented
here on her return from Europe, which
will probably be some time in January.
Miss Constance Lodge, the daughter
ii Henry Cabot Lodge, the Massachu-
sets member. is a demure little maiden
who quite charmed her friends when
she made her bow not long ago. Miss
Lodge is a Boston girl.
Miss Rebecca Potts, who is one of the
local bellies, made her debut recently at
her sisters wedding. She served in the
capacity Of bridemaid, and at the recep-
ton following the ceremony was for
mally presented.
Miss Kitty Reed. the daughter of the
Gar, - will appear this season at some
of her mothers afternoon receptions, and
next year she will be introduced. Kitty
IL only Is, but she is well grown and
looks and appears much older. She has
learned early what there is in political
favor, while her father was speaker, and
before it was determined that he would
not remain in that position she was
made the recipient of overwhelming at
tentiOn. After the election q change
became apparent. Everybody was as
kind as ever, but the e~ffusiveness was
considerably toned down. Miss Kitty
has all of her fathers independence, and
her happiness does no depend upon So
ciety's favor.
Another very young. young lady is
the daughter of Senator Pierce, of North
Dakota. She is not yet sixteen, but she,
too. will assist her mother this season.
The daughters of Senator Blackburn,
Of Kentucky. Misses Corinne and Luz
ellie, viii both be in society this winter.
They are typical southern beauties. tall
and slender, with clear cut faces and
dark eyes. Miss Corinne. the elder, has
dark hair. but Miss Lucille's tresses are
almost golden. They are both charm
ing girls, with winning. cordial man
ners. Everybody likes them. Senator
Blackburn has been very badly hurt.
His horse ran away and threw him.
During his confinement to the house his
daughters were very devoted. 1t is evil
dent that as yet the senator is the man
in whom they are most Interested.
Miss Everett, the only child of Mr..
and Mrs. Sidney Everett, will be intro
duced this winter. This young lady is a
striking beauty. She is very tall. with
dark, shining eyes and beautiful curling
hair. Miss Everett has been abroad for
some time.
Several young ladies' will be presented
at the cabinet receptions. Miss Hal

Miller has two daughters; the elder,
Miss Florence, has been in society two
years, but the younger makes her first
appearance this season.
Miss Minnie Wanamaker, one of the
several daughters of the postmaster gem
eral, will take a prominent place in so
ciety this winter. Miss Minnie's gowns
are something to dream of, especially as
they will be worn by a very pretty girl.
There is only n more of the sisters,
Miss Lily, who viii not come out for
two years yet. Mrs. Wanamaker and
her daughters returned to Philadelphia
for the Christmas festival which Mr..
Wanamaker always gives, and at which

All Paris is dancing now, and the great

duce something so very novel that no one
has ever seen its like before; and perhaps
the nearest approach to something en-.
tirely new is in the two elegant robes,
pictures of which are shown herewith.
There is a blending of all the styles and
all h epochs since lifetime of Eve, and
they are both as pretty as they are novel.
The gown on the left side is Of pale pink
tulle over glace silk in the same shade,
and the skirt is made plain and full al
around. Across the front is fastened al
enormous spray of roses and foliage o.

color are blended.

colored crepe, as are the full sleeves

THE GRAND JURY'S WORK.
n Report of What They did at This
Term of Court.

The grand jury for the May term
of Forsyth Superior Court made the
following report of their work:
We have been in constant session
since our qualification up to the
present time. Have examined wit
nesses aud acted upon seventy six
cases. Made nine presentments and
have used our best endeavors to pre-
sent all known and reported cases of
violation of the law. In reporting
upon the county Jail, we hereby as
body are of the opinion that some of
the cells are too much crowded for
the health an9 comfort of the prison
ers otherwise in good condition. The
county poor house was visited by
committee of three. They report as
follows: House in good condition ex-
cept basement which is flooded with
water during wet weather. They
recommend ditch around said poor
house. They report bedding rather
scarce in insane department. The
inmates report good fare and good
treatment.
The grand jurors recommend the
enlargement of the court house
either by additions to the old Or by
building new one.
All Of which is most respectfully
submitted
