The civilized world has lately been
suffering from heavy Valois reac-
ton, and such has been the craze for
tightness and stiffness that ladies
have not hesitated To adopt fashions
which the court of Henri Iii or
Charles TX only reserved for men.
High. stiff collars fatal to people
with short necks or defective respi
ration have rcigned side by side with
huge open cuffs. charming when seen
from the front. frightful when looked
at from behind. For years past it
been impossible to induce any dress
maker to leave the sweeping line OF
the neck and arm such rs nature
made it. Husbands may scold. ps-
thetic friends may scoff. but till the
fiat goes forth from the lawgivers of
Paris. women will have 10 wear
humps on their shoulders, in some
wise after the fashion of the Refine

The Training of Boys.

The great want today is not more
opportunities. but the power to crap
pie with hindrances to obtain the de
sired objects The men who are fill
ing leading places in the various call
ings and pursuits of life are usually
those who i'll their youth had to bat
tie with adversely and meager oppor-
tunities. and who. by the force thus
developed. have risen to their present
high stations.
1t is interesting to note that on
this principle the SONS of the royal
family of Germany are required to
learn trade. some manual industry,
that they may learn self mastery and
be able to endure hardship A self

The Puritan, and the Mnrmon..

Mormon elders may have erred ON the
subject of natrimony. but. so far rs |

burned witches at the stake. Brigham
Young's disciples also massacred Il few

Indians; but they seldom descended To
the cold blooded tiendistness Of the Puri-
tans. as shown in their treatment of the
New England natives. Both left their
native homes to secure freedom of con
science" but the Puritans, am told,
did rot have quite the same regard for
