then there is getting lost. That is very eff

always has her silk petticoat fastened

and an "introspectlve" look comes over her
face. Then she begins to make little gasps
of distress; then she stops stock still and

quite easy to do. Any nice girl can blush
without difficulty when she feels her skirt

"a curious Bit of foreign politeness-or
perhaps l ought to call it international
| courtesy, for felt that was only consid~
cred as the representative of a great and
powerful nation-occurred here the other
day." writes TO the New York Tribune a

has had the next private table Co ours in the
grand sale-a-manger of the hotel where we
are stopping. He is stiff grand seigneur'
sort OF a man, and has been apparently
quite unaware of our existence until yester-
day, which was Fourth Of July. The pro-
| prietor of the hotel, wishing to crafty the

After we were stated at dinner the prince
entered the room, and marching up to our
table made a low and ceremonious bow,
which we returned in as stately fashion as
it was given, quite recognizing that it was

brate, and feeling tremendously dignifed
and 'plenipotentiary' in thus acting as rep
resentatives of the American nation. We
are curious to see il be will resume his

Do you bite your nails? Now, I'm sure
good many of you do, says the New York
Advertiser, and still you would love to
| know a cure for it, and ia time it will ruin
your pretty fingers and you will have
| square nails instead of filbert-shaped ones.
Here is good thing to try, and very likely
| 1t will stop the ugly habit. You have seen
mother put bitter nloes on the baby's little
pink thumb TO make him stop putting it
| into his mouth, haven't youl Well, that's
the very thing you must do, and when you
| go TO bite those nails of yours the bitter
| taste will soon remind you of your bad
| habit, and If you are in earnest Of course
| you will stop. But here is a better mixture
than aloes Make a thick paste of gum
arabic, mixing in a liberal supply of
| powdered qui mine. II you paint your finger
| tips with this you will soon be cured and
have long. respectable looking nails before
school opens again.
It is the widest creation of fin de steele
| fancy yet heard from and the fashionable
| friends of a young north side club man are
congratulating him on the originality Of
| his conception, says the Chicago Times.
Society got tired of collecting bangles some
| time ago and all the romance has gone out
| of the souvenir spoon craze. Even the gay
Young women who have been sandbagging
their men friends for silk carriers with
their initials embroidered on the silver
buckles have found the fad growing tire
some on their hands. Society has been
| fairly yearning for some new amusement
with Just spice Of wickedness about it,
| The fad which this young club man has
| discovered is simply a corset. It is not a
| new corset. The delicate silk has been
shaped on a rare and plastic mold. 1t still
keeps the soft curves aud the graceful out
lines which it gained when some one else
owned it. IL would DO the hight of ill
breeding to ask where the young club man
got it Besides, he would refuse to tell you.
| That is a secret which he conf1des only to
his intimates when they grow merry over
bottle after the theater.
But the corset hangs on the wall in the
| inner chamber of the young mans bachelor
quarters on Rush street. The surface of the
white satin is covered with darker tracery
| which looks vague and meaningless unless
you scrutnize it closely. Then you can
make out in great variety of fashionable
handwriting the names Of numerous young
ladies written on the silken background.
! For the corset Is the young mans autograph
album. Half the fashionable girls in Chi

wickedness, written their names up and
down the hidden Fibs and the youth who
owns it boasts that he has everybody who is
anybody on the list.
He took the corset with him to the sea-
shore this summer and brought back the
| indelible signatures of a choice collection of
watering place bellies. This unique album
is the envy and despair of all the fellows"
at the club. The youth who was formerly
looked up to because he had the largest col
lection OF actress carriers has fallen quite
into the background.
But this young club man is not to stand
| alone on his pedestal. A young South Side
belle has challenged his supremacy. She is
a sweet, young bud and this is her first sea-
son, which makes her achievement all the
more remarkable. Nobody would think
it OF her took at her big, innocent, baby,
blue eyes and her dainty pink and white
complexion. And when you hear the tone
of voice in which she speaks to young
men who are not at least gold plated, you
will be certain that she is the very pink and
model of propriety. Yet, down somewhere
| In her Dretty personality there is a streak OF
