Managing Husbands.

When you have learned to take a man
by contraries you have learned the most
important lesson in the management of
men. If man is inclined to be rough and
harsh, used to ordering men about-per-
haps accustomed to scowl and growl-just
you be as tiulid and as easily frightened as
baby. Let your lip tremble and your
eyes fill and say, George, don't, don't
speak like thatw but do it to please, not to
irritate him. Be frightened if he scowls;
be ready to run if he growls. These big,
ugly fellows are the tenderest hearted men
in the world, but you must get at the ten
derness in them or you will find yourself
bullied about, and no woman can stand
that.
If man is dictatorial, be as gentle and
yielding as you can learn to make yourself.
Don't pretend you know, but really yield.
Sink your own opinions, but have great
respect for the truth. These dictatorial
fellows are usually dictatorial because
they have genuine confidence in their own
opinions. They will more willingly admit
to themselves that, they are wrong than
that you are right. 1t is the easiest thing
in the world to make them change their
views, only you must not seem to change
them. Let them do it Of their own will
and reason and intelligence. Then agree
with them always. Itds the right thing
they have come to, andoin so coming they
have vindieated their superiority. 1t isn't
that; they have agreed with you and SC
admitted themselves beaten. Forego youl
little triumph. The important thing is
chat the man you are managing should be
managed-Jenness Miller Magazine.

A r,renton Wedding Party.

At the bqsiesthour of yesterday, while
the mayor of the Eleventh arrondissement
was actively engaged in uniting in the
bonds of matrimony no fewer than seven
couples, he was somewhat surprised "
hear the sound of species of bagpipe
coming up the grand staircase. The dis
cordant sounds were found toproceed from
the musician of Breton wedding. who,
in accordance with the custom of his coun-
try, was blowing his hardest, in order to
bring luck to the bride and bridegroom.
All the members of the party were attired
in Breton eostume-the men wearing short
jackets and broad brimmed hats orna-
mented with ribbons,s and the women
bright colored shawls and enormous caps
The clerk, who was unable to find the
names Of the contracting parties on the
register, discovered that they had never
had the banns published, and that 'they
were Not obliged to do SO at home" On
being informed that certain preliminary
formalities Were absolutely essential to the
performance of the marriage ceremony, the
bride and bridegroom withdrew, still un-
married, but in the best of spirits, saving
that they would think it over. Paris

studs versus Buttons.

Strange that our strong minded hus-
bands and brothers have worn studs SO
long and found them SO superior to but
tons, and we women have congratulated
ourselves upon having no longer the un-
pleasant duty of sewing theirs on, and yet,
have not generally learned to use them
upon our own clothingl have found the
small, mother of pearl, 9s-inch size studs a
labor saving medium and very satisfac-
tory The two buttonholes in each place
instead of one being accomplished in the
new garment, and there is no more annoy
anoe on the score of fastenings. Corset
covers and night dresses need hardly be
looked at when they come in from the
wash; buttonholes do not show wear until
the garment is very old; but those dread
ful little three ,cornered holes that the but
ton will make, under the influence of z
pound iron and strong right arm, are
most depressing and hard to mend neatly.
Get, then, the studs, and having piece
of narrow sshaby" ribbon or tape, sew the
studs down the side Of it, allowing little
more distance between each ON the ribbon
than there is between the holes in the gar.
ment; pat them in the clean garment from
the wrong side, and the ribbon does not
show, but is sure guard against dropping
a single one, which, If we believe said
brothers and husbands, is sure to roll
under the l5unean or to,some unget-at-able
place, to the utter ,subversion of morals
and good temper. .--Good Housekeeping.

why Rot License Cats?

Cats are very useful in exterminating
rats md mice, and Tabby and Tommy are
lik4 eripatetic household gods. Yet there
are 10 many meowing felines in this big
town and there is too much nocturnal
music in back yards and on neighborhood
sheds-too many Thomas concerts that in
terfere, with the slumbers of the weary
mortal who retires late and arises betimes.
The board OF aldermen should pass an
ordinance requiring the owners of cats to
obtain licenses for the animals on the pay
ment Of a small fee. Dogs are licensed.
Why not catsS Then, if any vagrant gri-
malkinis found about the streets and back
yards and areas, he, she or it may be
promptly arrested and consigned to an asy-
ilum that should be established for unli-
censed, INDECENT, superannuated and de-
crepit cats. \
Lest any of our contemporaries should
object to such an ordinance ON personal or
selfish grounds. we wonld suggest that
journalistic office cats be exempted from

On Saturday. May 81, Mr.. Alexander
Hutchinson, manager and proprietor Of
the great eaoutchouc works at Langlee,
near Montargis, celebrated his coming of
age by family dinner, at which his Inn
mediate relatives were the only guests.
This young gentleman and astute and
prosperous business man is one of tho
most curious Developments of the principle
of heredity that has ever come under my
observation. His father, the elder AL
cander Hutchinson, himself a native Of
Connecticut and the son Of the original
founder of the great india rubber works
at Langlee, married French lady, the
daughter of the Count de Loyaute.
His childeen, including his namesake
and youngest son, all grew to maturity
and were educated in France. He died
some three years ago, and the younger
Alexander Hutchinson succeeded him as
proprietor and manager of that portion ot
the estate that included the property at
Langlee. He was chosen according tC
French law to follow the nationality of his
father; but though thus a citizen of the
United States he has never visited America.
Thus this young Partisan, born and bred
the cherished darling of an accomplished
French mother 20 lady of remarkable intel
ligence and force of character), has devel
oped by sheer power of heredity into stur
dy and practical American. He was waited
upon not long ago by II deputation of the
citizens of Montnrgis, who offered him the
nomination of deputy rs soon as he reached
the age of twenty-one il he would embrace
the French nationality. But the young
man preferred to be an American citizer
like his father and grandfather.-Parii

Origin of a Catch Word.

"'The wind blew through his whiskers'
is an expression whose origin my town can
justly claim" said Anson Talbot, of St.
Joseph, Mo. SIT happened this way: Ten
or twelve years ago maniac escaped from
the state lunatic asylum near St. Joseph
in the night, and the early risers the next
morning were startled by the presence of a
man on the roof of the Tootle Opera house,
one of the tallest buildings in the city.
Before the day was far spent he was iden-
titled as an inmate of the lunatic asylum,
and the officers of that institution, to-
gether with squad of police, soon set
about to induce the maniac to come down
from the roof
every harmless device known was ex-
erted to get the man down, and finally the
officers realized that they would have to &c
up, overpower him and bring him down.
There was only one opening to the roof,
and the lunatic stationed himself there
and kept the officers back by pelting every
head with a big club as it was poked
through the hole. AT last three mer
gained the roof, and after a terrific strug
gle that was witnessed by thousands b
excited people who blocked the streets
the lunatic was bound hand and foot and
brought to the ground.
when he cooled off somewhat from the
tussle with his captors, the man gave as
his reason for going to the roof that his
whiskers being so thick he had gone ur
there to let the wind blow them and COO
his face. The local papers wrote the af
fair up in elaborate style and accounts OF
itwere telegraphed all over the country
The headlines made the most of the Incl
dent, and in the blackst type announced
that The Wind Blew Through His
Whiskers.' The expression was so catchy
that it few all over the country like wild
fire, and that is the way it originated. -

Remedy for Rahiies.

An account of a case,of supposed rabies
in which recovery followed the use of
eleven subcutaneous injections of pilocar-
pine hydroehloride of "a fifth of grain
each in the course of seven days is given
by a surgeon in The Indian Medical Ga.
zette. The writer states that in practice
Of twenty-five years he has seen at least
twenty cases of rabies, but he has never
before succeeded in curing one, and he adds
that he has never known of a recovery
from the disease in India. He had seen
this drug mentioned as having effected a
cure in tive cases out of four and therefore
tried it. He first excised the cicatrix that
had formed as the result of the bite, and
kept the sore open for two weeks, with the
effect of stopping shooting pain that had
been felt in the scar.

Tho Rabies at Meal Times.

Our babies had given us great deal of
trouble while we, their parents, were at
meals. They were old enough to come to
the table, yet they must be disposed Of in
some way satisfactory to themselves, Or
the grown up members Of the household
would surely have dyspepsia!
Our final disposition of the matter being
highly satisfactory to ourselves as well as
the babies, venture to report it in the
hope that others in similar predicament
may find hint for their relief. A minia-
ture table and set of dishes, both of size
to be of practical usefulness, accomplished
the object
The table we had made was % inches
high, IS inches wide and 8 feet long, fin
ished natural in shellac. The little dishes
are of plain, heavy crockery that stands an
immense amount of rough treatment.
Each Of the two little ones has silver set,
of knife, fork, mug, spoon and napkin
ring. One child is two years and eight
months old, the other one year and five
months They both sit It the table and
eat most food by themselves If much
liquid food is served, of course the little
one gets herself pretty well incorporated
Herewith, but on the whole the plan has
worked admirably and | recommend it
heartily. E
have decided objections TO the use of a
high chair for children. To Judge from
the few broken spines or strained backs in
my own limited experience and knowledge
which have resulted from such use, l feel
justified in the condemnation. A . well
meaning friend had given us one on the
advent of the first baby, which had lain
in the attic all these months We now
brought the chair down and sawed off the
legs to bring it down to proper height to
accommodate the small table wish tc
add the opinion that all high chairs in ex.
istence could be treated in the same way
to the eternal good of babyhood. .-Eleanora
