Perhaps the most practical walking dress

1t differs very materially from the gowns
commonly worn by ladies of the present

OF attention when its wearer passes along
the streets.
The costume is short princess dress,
reaching two or three inches below the
knee.
IL Is worn over trousers. very much the
same as those claimed by the male sex.
Mrs. Smith, in speaking of the peculiar
gown 10 a CALL reporter, said that she first
wore the union undergarments without any
bands or compressions about the waist, or,

Rraverx In N Grow.

Some years ago at hawking party
on Salisbury Plain, a falcon was flown
at a carrion crow, which it struck after
a long fight, and the two birds came
down like parachute to the ground
The party galloped up and were about
to dismount to take up the falcon, when
the mate of the crow suddenly de-
scended from great height with such
velocity that the wings made whizzing
sound like that of falling stone and
dashed onto the falcon. The force OF
the blow struck the hawk from its
quarry, which was uninjured by the
grapple in the air, and both crows flew
off unhurt into copse near. In this
case the crow clearly understood the
cause of the danger and the possibility
of rescue when the falcon was on thu
ground and least able to act on the OF
fensive.
But the courage and devotion which
prompted it to overcome the natura
dread which the falcon inspires, aud tn
added terror Of party Of mounted mel
in hot pursuit, place the crows claim t
admiration ona very high level.--Lon
don Spectator.

Roman Wealth.

When l.. Calpurnius Piso was APP
pointed governor of Macedonia for one
year he drew for his outfit from the pub
lie treasury 10, 100000 sesterces or $780,
600. He did not want the money for
that purpose; everything required by a
proconsul was supplied to him by the
province. Piso simply took the money
for himself, and lent it out in Rome at
high interest. G. Verres was charged
by Cicero with having robbed Sicily of
1850, 600 in three years, besides many
valuable works of art. He practically
admitted his guilt by retiring from Rome
without attempting any defense. Cic-
ero, when governor of the poor province
of Cilicia, found himself the richer in
one year by e20, 900, and he was perhaps
the only proconsul who ever handed
over his surplus to the state.
There can be no doubt that Cicero and
the younger Pliny received large sums
from their clients while those clients
were still living. Balbus is not likely tc
have secured the argument PRO Balho'
for a mere trifle, and the gratitude OF
Sicily for the prosecution Of Verres I'M
doubtedly took very substantial form
Apart from all such honoraria, it is re
corded that both Cicero and the younger
Pliny received legacies from clients tt
the amount of el70,0O0. Gibbon tells III
on the authority of Olympiodorus tina
several of the richest senators had an 10

The Folly Of Suicide.

The sin Of suicide is not more evident
than is its folly. In the vast majority
Of cases tho ills which provoke this des-
perate act derive their force not from
the actual misery they infict, but from
nervous apprehensiveness. They are the
shadows of clouds which threaten, but
may and often do pass away.
It was one of the cruel ironies of fate
that the suicide of M. Prevost-Paradol,
who had stultifed his most brilliant
writings by accepting a post-that OF
minister from France to Washington
under the Second Empire, took place Just
as the Liberal cause, with which his
name had always been associated, was
on the eve of triumph
When Mary Wollstonecraft, deserted
by her American lover, paced up and
down Putney bridge saturating her gar
ments with the rain 80 that they nigh
not prevent her from sinking in tn
water her life seemed indescribabl,
dreary-without ray OF hope. Ie
this very hour of despair proved to b.
the turning point in her history, ant
from 1t dated the truest bliss she ha'
ever known-a period Of welded happi
ness and joyous work. And SO wit

To know the American soldier well

trail when tae sun beats holly down on
the dry and yerdureless earth, and the
dust rises in white clouds that hide the
column from view, and fills the eyes
the mustache, the ears, the mouth,
with profanity and vexation Here is
where his songs and jokes proclaim the
stuff that he is made of, Then when
you are sent out with him in the dead of
winter over twenty inoFes of snow,
your equipments and supplies on bob
sleds, ne it is that dismounts time and
again without murmur, pushing to
help the mules up hill, and repacking
the overturned sled dozen times in
day; then after it all digging his hole
in the snow, and putting up his tent at
night, all the time joking with his
"Bunkie," and ready as ever to steal a
wisp of hay or handful of oats for his
shivering horse.
He it is that jumped into a boiling hot
spring to save the life of the daughter
of a private citizen--a deed for which
the citizen, who was rich man, prof
fered the astounding sum of five dollars,
and the government the gold medal of
honor; he that took a fiat bottomed boat
out in heavy sea in New York harbor
to rescue drowning boy; that lost his
life for his fidelity while attempting to
swim an icy stream with dispatches;
who single handed served a field gun
through an action with bullet in his
leg, to hold a position; he that you be-
lieve incapable OF anything but chuck

A Brave Xoungster.


Daniel Bonnet was weaver 200 years
ago in the French village of Thorigne.
He and his wife We're Huguenots, and
they talked necessarily to their three
little children of the glory of holding by
their faith and, if needs be, of dying
for it.
The troops were sent into the village
to convert the Huguenots at the swords
point, and Bonnet and his wife attempt
ed to escape to the coast.
They loaded a donkey with vegetables
as if for market but hid the three little
ones in the panniers, charging them, as
they valued their religion, to keep
silent, no matter what happened.
M. Bonnet, with basket of turnips,
| trudged ahead; his wife drove the DON
key. Just outside the village they met
a trooper.
''Going to MARKET" he said suspi-
ciously. "Then lean try if your carrots
be tender" He plunged his sword into
the pannier and waited, but not sound
was heard. wherever you go, bon
