DELSARTE BEGINS
Physical Culture the Reigning
Social Sensation.
PRESENT STATUS OF TRAINING
The Eldest Daughter of Frances Apostle Of

New YORK, Dec. %, 1871 Special cor
respondence of THE SUNDAY HERALD. j
Physical culture is one of the fads that
have come to stay with US for some time.
This became obvious a good while ago, but
nothing gave the fact greater emphasis
than the arrival the other day of Nine.
Marie Grady Delsarte.
Every body has heard that Nine Delsarte
is the eldest daughter of the famous Del
sarte; that after her fathers death She pre-
sided over the old DeIsarte house at the
corner of the Boulevard Courcelles and
Pare Monceau in Paris until after she be-
came successful in art; that she and her
sister Madelaine have both exhibited in the
salon; that Madelaine is one of the lnstruc-
tors in the Julian school where Maria
Bashkirtseff was pupil, and that Maria
Delsarte is very interesting If not very
highly gifted singer. But everybody has
not had the opportunity to know that Nine.
Delsarte is woman of remarkably fasci-
mating appearance. She is not beautiful,
but she is charming. Somebody has said
that she looks like Sarah Bernhardt. The
resem blance is no readily detected. For
one thing, she is very dark, with plenty
OF dark brown hair. She is very French
in appearance. Of course the chief living
exponent of Delsartism has finely modu-
lated voice. Of course her walk is poem
of motion. OF course being French, she
complacently does not speak English, and
you have to chat with her in the bes
French you have, and being American,
your French is probably very bad, allnos
as bau as ii you were English.

The pretty gown that was produced for
this occasion fulfilled all these ideas. The
waist was of a lovely kind of lace net with
large figured lozenges on it of gold and sill
yer tinse 1t was cut pointed front and
back, the point extending but very little be-
low the shoulders The sleeves were of a
net and terminated at the elbow, large
slit in the net revealing the fair skin of the
wearer. Gloves of wide suede stitched
with silver met the sleeves above the elbow,
and the neck of the gown was caughtfront
and back with large gold clasp. There
was nothing suggestive of the decollette in
the dress, and yet it was most dressy and
pretty. The skirt was a demi-train, and
around the hem there was broad band of
black velvet tied at the SIDE in a very large
bow. The corsage was finished By very
| deep black girdle with black passementerie
around the upper edge, and at the front
| there was huge black velvet bow There
was also bow at TIE back of the corsage,
and the ends hung down to the foot of the
! train.
The passion for bows seems to have
spread about as far as it possibly can.
! Every well-dressed woman has half dozen
of them somewhere upon her gown, and she
even adds bow to the side of her hair and
/ bands her cCiffure with strips of ribbon.
Very large bows are used for decorating
a gown here and there, aud one need not be
afraid OF getting on too many of these orna-
ments.

FLIRTING AND FISHING.
Mr. Labouchere on the Art of Ensnaring
Vain Lovers.

In an article headed 'What Kind of
Women do Men Prefer for Wives?" the
London Spectator recently took the ground
that men prefer as wives plain and clever
girls to pretty simpletons. Be clever and
be well educated, says the Spectator, for
then you will get a husband, whether you
are pretty or the reverse.
Mr. Labouchere, in London Truth, takes
issue with the Spectator as follows
IF l were a girl on the Lookout for IA
husband should play the game by adroitly
hattering my contemplated victim; listen
ing with rapt attention when he spoke and
generally, seeking to create the impression
on him that thought him, in wisdom and
in charm, not inferior to the angels. At
the same time l should endeavor Indirectly
to bring home the fact that in me he would
find person with heavenly temper,
! bri1nming over with domestic affection
should take care to be becomingly dressed,
but my 'get-up' would look as if it cost
nothing. | should eschew slang and manly
games, and l should be severely proper in
my general behavior. My likes and dislikes
would be those of my victim.
''In the present day a man rarely deliber-
ately contemplates marriage. He likes toy
ing with the hook, but he does not intend
to swallow it. The fly has, therefore, to be
very adroitly thrown to catch him. The
mistake girls make is not to distinguish be-
tween flirting and fishing. One hears a
good deal about the vanity of women. Men
are just as vain, and it is by keeping this
fact well in mind that girl gets husband

the girl who follows my advice in the mat
rimonial stakes against the girl who acts
on the recommendations of the Spectator. u

probably the most radical OF
all the advocates of what might
be called physical reform. He
wants everybody to have a
straight spine, not the kind of curved spine
you will find in nature or in Gray's Anat-

will find in very young children. Physical
training would be a good thing if we could
get to be as strong as Checkley. 1 have

develop themselves from the inside"
Within the past few years schools of
physical culture have sprung up in all
parts of the country. The normal schools in
Boston, in Brooklyn and in other cities are
graduating largo numbers of teachers of
physical training. Shall we soon be rival

or jacket, or muff, or any of the things
which seem to demand tails. Accordingly,
with this idea in mind, the people who have
charge Of the making of women's clothes
entered into contract with certain other
people who were willing to undertake the
work of obtaining one million cats tails.
This sounds like a fairy story, but in a
certain town in Wisconsin there is large
firm doing business on large scale, and
the principal article of their trade is the
cats tail. So Tabby and Tom are deprived
of their ornament and you are wearing 1t

are probably enjoying the glories of skat-

it is, because by its means one exercises

into use in walking. There is a swing in

waist which walking does not call into play

If we could know when soft replies,
And smiling lips and tranquil eyes
Hide hearts that tremble, throb and ache.
AS silently they grleve and break
Beneath their mask of graceful lies,
We might not deem ourselves SO wise
To measure grief by tears and signs;
Some hasty judgments might not wake,
But spare for hidden sorrows sake,
Our friend behind his gay disguise.
If we could know how in the mines
OF tenderness the pure gold shines,
We might not feel the smarting stings.

And careless words unerring signs
OF love that upward. onward springs
To meet its own on steadfast wings
And commune hold on sacred shrines.

RATS!
Rats Heads and Pussy Cats Tails for
Ornaments.

Rats Heads and Pussy Cats Tails for
Ornaments
Have you ever seen real live rat YOU
poor little woman who shivers and shud-
ders at the thought of one, and who goes
into a spasm at the sight of a mouse?
Probably you never have, because rats are
kept from you more than even the snakes
and other crawling and loathsome repre-
sentatives of the animal kingdom. Those
you sometimes see in the circus or at a Zoo
or in menagerie, but rat-save the mark
its name is a source of terror.
Yet-now don't shudder-in your pretty
winter wardrobe you may find several rat's
heads doing duty as ornaments.
The idea is not pretty one, but it is,
nevertheless, one that is really in accord
ance with facts. When the fashion came
in at the beginning of this year for the
wearing of heads, heads had to be found.
There were not enough to anywhere sup
ply the demand for them, and there had to
be sudden production of heads from some
where. AT first mink heads and squirrel
hta1s did duty, but the supply of these
soon ran out, and then some manufacturing
genius discovered that squirrel heads were
exactly like rats heads.
Decapltatlng two specimens of these
animals, and placing the heads side by side,
it was impossible to tell which was which,
and so all of a sudden the mystery was
solved and a good solution was found for
the perplexing problem of more heads than
were on hand. All the rat catchers of the
country were notified that they would be
paid certain sum for heads, and behold
into the fur shops they came bringing bar
rels on barrels of rat heads.
The idea is horriblel Simply horrible
Isn't it! But then there are ever so many
horrible things which become less so after
one gets accustomed to hearing about them
So the dear little head which is upon youl
muff and the half-dozen heads which are
upon the front of your coat and the heac
which is on your boa, and the several heads
which are upon your hat, probably all come
off of real live rats.
The next problem was to get enough tails
to ornament winter clothes. There seemed
to be too few tail-bearing animals in exist.
ence to supply the great demand for these
appendages. Then somebody else with s
great deal of inventive genius espied Mis-,
Tabby sitting by the fire, and though
what charming thing it would be to ge
