Draukards Not Wanted by Employers of
Workmen.
One of the indications of the steady
growth of anti-rum sentiment in the
country is the increasing number of
occupations from which drinking men
are excluded There was considerable
of a sensation created at the great
iron rollmills at Newburg, near Cleve-
land, by the discharge of several of the
hands at Christmas time. They went
to the foreman for an explanation, and
found that it was because they We're
drinking men. They protested, of
course, against dismissal, and urged
the plea that they did not drink while
on duty" This, however, does not
cover the real ground. A drinking
man, after time, has his nervous
system deranged by the alcoholic
stirnrlant His eye is not so sure, his
hand not SO correct his judgment in

She had sent to me, she said, because
she wished to know whether we should
object to having the tea-things on the

'.1he cooks, they won't cook din
ner on Sunday" she explained, 'sun-
less you call it tea; and Pm sure
you've no idea what a trouble SER
wants are in this country. We can't
make 'em do anything; and my hus-
band he's college man, and I'm sure

So we called our meal tea; but bar
ring the kettle, and the teapot, it was
q very good dinner.

WOmen'S Waists,

While 10 or 3O-inch waists may be
a deformity in an adult woman, it
may be justly doubted whether the
26-inch waist of Venus de Medici is
not somewhat too large to be in pro-
portion with the figure OF the average
American woman. It is characteris-
tic OF women OF the highest type of
the 1ndo-European races to have wide
hips and narrow waists. In other
races the hips are narrower and the
waist larger. The American woman
appears, in consequence OF her large
hip measurement, to have smaller
waist then she actually has. To the
unskilled masculine eye, says the
Pittsburg Commercial Gazette, a girl
with waist OF % or 22h inches may
seem to have awasp-like figure, when
in reality her measurement is very
nearly what it should be to satisfy
the critical Judgment of an artist or
her family physician. The Venus de
Medici is 5 feet 5 inches in
height, 26 inches about the waist, 81
about the bust and a about the hips.
The women employed as "cloak
models by most of the great dry
goods establishments in New York
City are about of the same height.
The measurements required OF a.
"modeP' 5 feet 5 inches in height in
one establishment are the following:
"Waist, 2315 to "a inches; bust, "a to

t'The gentleman over yonder is TAX

"simmered down" and went home.
On the following day, sure enough,
his friend brought him the stolen
article.
