Size in Flies.

To convince householders that the
small flies on their window-panes never
grow to be large ones-in fact, never
grow at all--is task of no little diff.
Guilty sometimes. The difference OF
size in flies is always the distinction Of
sex or species, but never of age. With
the exception of the gradual unfolding
of its crumpled wings, no change comes
over the aspect of the fly from the mo-
ment of its birth from the chrysalis to
that of its death. A big fly is no more
little fly grown up than horse is an
old pony, or goose fully-developed
duck. All the growth of the fly is &C.
complished in the maggot state; then a
short period of somnolence as a smooth,
brown chrysalis intervenes, from which
finally the young fly springs, like
Minerva from the head of Jove, full
sized as well as fully armed..-N. Y.

ance, which need scarcely say had
been allowed to run to seed terribly of
late, but whatever their thoughts were
they took Gaze not to express them.
You see they know how to hold their
tongues at Newmarket.
My story is done. Suffice it to say
that whilst was in his house, on pa.
role as it were, the trainer ''did" me
uncommonly well-the breakfast ate
that morning was a caution-and kept
his word to the letter as to monetary
arrangements.
After all, said and done, the sum
was paid for holding my tongue was
not a penny too much, for the large
commission that was worked that very
morning all over London could never
have been executed at the good price it
was, had chosen to open my mouth.
However, as long as was satisfied
that was all that was necessary.

account for cool hundred, beside the

Tho Tough Girl Sets tho Fa shion.

Who would have supposed Certainly
not even the actress who cleverly made
the part in Harrigan's play that the
tough girl would furnish the fashion,
able belle of the present season with
the suggestion for something new in
dancing. Yet so it is, and if anybody
will watch the romping quadrilles this
summer any of the fashionable hotels
they will see the reigning beauties, tho
favored daughters of fortune putting
in very much the same steps and good
deal of the motion now associated on
the stage with the girl of the Bowery.
High stepping, kicking in front and
even kicking behind are features of the
lively dancing at present in vogue. Not
only so, but fancy steps, such as be-
longed to jigs and reels in the olden
time, are high style, and walking
through quadrilles and making stately
bows have had their day. The fashion,
able gallant who is now considered a
good partner is the one who can chase
down the middle or ''cut pigeon wing"
after the manner of Billy BUNNY at a
Moya jamboree. ee.-Philadelphia Times.

reached the rear of the stand, we'll out
of sight, when ventured to peep out.
There, standing exactly opposite the
racecourse itself, were five horsemen.
One recognized Immediately dark as
it was as a well-known trainer who had
a prominent Derby favoritc under his
charge; the other four, three of whom
were mounted on thoroughbreds,
hooded and clothed, were evidently
Jockeys
The morning was still, and l could
hear every word the trainer uttered.
You know what to do now, don't
you?" said he, addressing a jockey who
was astride chestnut with two white
hind legs. Crank will make the pace
as hot as he can with the old horse,
and if you can hold him all the way on
the young 'un, beat him at the finish,
or even run, him close, the Derby's all
over but shouting. So now cut away,
my lads, down to the starting post. I'll
stop here, exactly opposite the judges
box, and Bob Joyce will start YOU"
Not another word was said. The
trainer took up his position. the others
cantered away down the course, and
last, but not least, I crawled on all
fours from my hiding place, and crept
along under cover of the darkness until
had taken the trainer in flank.
He was in front of the judges box;
was just beside it.
That was the only difference between
us.
A faint yellow light just appeared on
the horizon, denoting that daylight
would soon be with us, when slight
noise in the distance caused his cob to
prick his ears and the trainer to turn
his head sharp to the left, and peer into
the darkness.
They're OFF, heard him exclaim,
as the sound of horses galloping could
now be plainly heard.
On they came nearer and nearer.
Crack, went a whip. Some one was
calling on his horse for an effort
The next instant the three horses
flashed past us; the chesJGu. With the
white hind legs first.
The trainer gave his thigh triumph
ant smack, as he exclaimed: "By
the Lord Harry, but he's stone better
than thought he was"
Now was my time for action, and
seized it.
II congratulate you, Mr.. Snaffle, :"
was all l said
Short speech as it was, it was quite
enough to nearly make the trainer
tumble off his horse with astonish-
ment.
''W-w-where did you come from
and what business have you here?" he
stammered, grasping his hunting whip

An Enthusiastic Eulogium on Our Great
What I saw when gained the north.
ern and eastern balconies of the Ad-
ministration building surpassed and
surprised my highest expectations
After all that pen and pencil had done
to prepare me for the sight, felt that
not one-half had been told me. The
great White City which rose before me,
silent and awful, seemed to belong to
an order of things above our comf1op
world. 1t was a poem entablatured
in fairy palaces, only to be done into
human speech by the voice of some
master singer. 1t was dream Of
beauty which blended the memory 81
classic greatness with the sense of AL
pine SHOWS. 1t was an apocalypse of
the architectural imagination. Tho
wildness of the day lent its own
apocalyptic setting to the scene. A
swaying, drifting curtain of cloud shut
in the horizon, blurring lake and sky
on the one side in an indistinguishabl
haze, and on the other shroudjng the
city in gloom of smoke and rain.
Ever and again the towers of the fair
were draped with wreaths of trailing
cloud. while the beating rain and chill
ing wind added to the elemental effect
The cluster of buildings hung together
there sort of city in the clouds, yet
severe and unmistakable in outline.
1t was vision Of the ideal, enhaloed
with mystery. The dreams OF Column
bus, the aspirations of the pilgrim
fathers, the boundless possibilities of
the American continent itself, all seem
to have been crystallized in this mute
world of hall and peristyle,, of column
and capital. 1t stood there one colossal
temple of temples, awaiting in silence
the presence of the supernal glory
