The following extract from Boswell's
Life of Johnson" may serve to fix the
date of the present custom of walking
on the right hand side of the footway:
In the last age says Johnson when
nv mother lived in London. there were
two sets OF people-those who gave the
wall and those who took it: the peace
able and the quarrelsoule- When re-
turned to Lichfeld, after having been
in London. my mother asked me wheth-
err | was one of those who gave the
wall or took it. Now ii is fixed that
every man keeps TO the right: or. If one
is taking the wall, another yields il,
and it is never dispute" The period
to which this is referred IS 1881. / do
not think that the custom of walking
on the right-hand side is very strictly
observed in provincial towns At all
events. one notices that country cousins
when in London frequently persist in
taking the wr ong side.

DISH WASHING MACHINES.

More Needed Now Than Ever Before In tn q
History Of the Kitchen.
There is fortune in store for the
genius who puts good patent dish
washer on the market.
Probably there never was time in
the history of the world when women
were as careful of their hands as they
are to-day. Piano-playing is nothing
like as popular as it was twenty years
ago. Virtuosos and music boxes have
discouraged the amateurs. Now, in
stead of the musical accomplishment,
school girls take elocution, skirt dane
ing or some other phase of dramatic
art. Boarding girls learn to
play chess and poor public-school pu-
pills study typewriting, and they al
fix their finger nails. So do the shop
girls, the saleswomen, cashiers and
milliners' and dressmakers' assist.
ants. The young person who receives
messages in the telegraph Office
has seashell nails. In the training
schools for nurses entire lectures are
devoted to the care of the hands. At
the mission-schools, where poor little
girls are taught cooking, sewing and
kitchen-gardening, the committee
women inspect hands at the beginning
of the session.
The public school teachers wear rose-
petal finger nails. AS is the teacher SO
is the school. The girls squeeze beet
juice and cranberries on their finger
tips to make them ''look like teachers"
and the result is decided objection to
any work that soils their beautiful
hands.
The manager of large department.
in dry-goods establishment devoted
to house-furnishing goods says: 1--WE
have hundred calls day for dish
washers. Just now the demand is sur
prising. We have invited manufacture
ers OF willow and wooden ware to send
us in designs, but none Of them
is practical. Hotel people use
trays and dripping boards OF open
work, but the call from
private families is for something

who is furnishing house for a new

did we get It for herr No. The
idea is absurd. Women have been
washing dishes for the last FIVE thou
sand years. and cam understand why
some of them haven't invented Ia
boring-saving machine before now.
About the only thing in the market
worthy of notice is a thirteen-cent dish
mop. 1t consists of twelve-inch stick
with tassel on one end made of can
dle-wick Some women find il very
serviceable and good substitute for
the dish-rag. 1t is, however. only safe
in the hands of intelligent labor
Operated by pair of red hands fresh
from the fields of Europe. the dish-mop
is wea pom for the destruction of con-
sidera bly, more crystal and china than
the average wage-earner can afford. -

our literature has thus been robbed Of
best and the only immortal Halloween
tale ever written. No wonder Poe's
biographers do not find much Hal
lowe'en enthusiasm in his make up.
Icannot recall that any momentous
events in the worlds history have
transpired on Halloween. nor is it, like
the Fourth of July and Christmas,
made additionally eminent as the date
Of the death or birth of great men nor
as the anniversary of memorable
events After all, holidays can be ad-
vertised as effectively rs business en-
terprises. If some immortal or other
could contrive to associate the day
with portentous circumstance con-
nected with himself, lovers of Hal
lowe'en would appreciate the compli-
ment. This suggestion. l know, was
once made by Thackeray aprepos of
his own birthday. but mere lack of
originality should not impede the
carrying out of good idea
Those who consider Halloween
undignified in its observance or as
childish. should remember first, that
the day is recognized and set apart by
the church, and secondly, that there is
nothing Objectionable in childishness

selves fantastically in mask and
domino, and there were the usual
games and parties. But it seems to me
there is less enthusiasm over it all than
there used to be. Either present edu-
cational systems are grinding all the
humor and romance out of boys and
girls or the joys Of Halloween arc too,

won celebrity for their authors. We
are ell familiar. too, with Christmas
and Thanksgiving poems, pictures and
plays. But who has read q really good
Halloween story-where is there .
Halloween picture or play?
To be sure, there is the quaint fresco
on the walls of St. Etienne's, the dis
used sanctuary near Notre Dame, at
Paris. Tho reproductions of this paint
ing seem nowhere outside OF France,
however, beautiful as they are. The
marquis of Ripon is now the owner of
a ~uperb collection Of old prints, rep
resenting the charts of Hallow mass
by the monks who played in the chapel
connected with the Ripon castle only
on this October holiday, and, the serv-
ice over, wended their way to the hol-
low trunk of tree in the garden and
marched therein, not to be seen for a
whole year. So far as know, Hallow-
cen is not intimately associated with
any locality except this The Ripons,
very naturally, have taken pride in tho
eminence thus conferred upon their
baronial acres. While the old mar
quis lived the Halloween parties there
were famous. Disraels witticism of
years ago, still quoted by ardent adj
mirers of the primrose premier, that a
man ought to take himself seriously If
nobody else will. was uttered at one Of
these affairs. He stood under the IA
nous monks tree, and, of course. the
parliamentarian's inimitable diction
and address made the utterance far
more impressive than its repetition in;
cold type can ever be. It is no won
der that when this Halloween tree
blew down some years ago the Ripons
spared no pains in having it restored,
to its old place, where it dourishes to-
day, and long will do SO. 1 hope.
The south seems to honor Hallow-
cen more than any other section Of
our country. Father Ryan wrote some
exquisite verses on the day rshortly
before his death. and understand.
although my information on this point
is not definite, that they are to be
printed shortly. The custom of dress
ing entirely in white on Halloween
seems to prevail more generally south
Of Mason and Dixon's line than any
where else. Nor do think we of the
north have such melodies as are sung
on this particular night near the Gulf
of Mexico.
