minished very considerably in 1887

The outline of a woman'S figure
should be like that of a classic jar.
slim at the neck and at the ankles
and tapering slightly at the waist.
The reason that all women do not
look just this way is because they
will wear petticOats, and petticoats
are destructive to the symmetry of
the jar. Petticoats have flounccs
upon them. and flounccs make the
dress set out aroun / the feet, and 50
Il woman, instead or looking slender
at her ankles, looks very broad indeed
and big around. so that her figure
more often resembles a beehive or a
pyramid than that of n classical jar
If woman is large in the bust and
large in the hips she should not allow
her waist to taper to any great extent,
because when she destroys her classi-
cal outline and makes herself look
like an hour glass or wasp. To
quote from an artist who has made Z,

principle which should be adopted is
that of balancing the expansion OF

Too HaSty.

Doctor BruntOn. i'm an address lately
reported in the London Lancet, was
cautioning his hcarcrs--thc members
of medical society-against hastily
expressed opinions as to the nature
of patients diseases. and emphasized
his warning by two professional anec'
doteS. He was once present at i
clinic, the subject Of which was q
man evidently suffering from some
disease of the heart.
An unnatural murmuring sound
could be heard from that organ, and
the pupil of one of his eyes was very
much dilated. The peculiar appear
ance of the eye seemed to have some
connection with the cirdiac affection,
but variou, opinions were expressed
by the different students rs to wha,
the precise nature this relation could
be.
The discussion was just bee 1ming
interesting when the patient re
marked that his strange-looking eye
was made of glass.

Another condition of equal importance

to be struck out on IA recons dsration. l,
is as follows:
Provided the sale of intox;c stins

be prohibited. except for medical, botan-

Farmer, by Isrcvct.
New York has three alleged farmers
in the lIou- ketcham Curtis and
Greenlcaf. They do not use the hoe or
perspire much themselves; they are pro-
fcSSiOnals rather than amateurs. They
love farmin. even well enough to put
their money into it. They do not rely
on it for support; it relies on them.

Here is an easy means of dctermin-
ing whether Il supposed diamond is
genuine or not. Pierce a hole in Il
card with a needle. and then look at
the hole through the stone. If false.
you will see two holes. but if you
have real diamond only Il single
hole will appear. You may also make
the test in another way. Put your
finger behind the stone and look at it
through the diamond as through a
