high point in front. fastened ut the
waist. All around the neck was ruffle
of green gauze, and at the head and the
edge of the ruff1o were small violets,
hanging closely and carelessly at will.
At the shoulders were small punches Of
violets, and the sleeves were double
gauze ruffles.
That is an empire bodice, and here is
another empire couture. Gather your
hair, OF course, at the crown of your
head and arrange it in small puffs or
curls, and fastcn it with gold comb
Before gathering it, however, you must
have parted it in front, and taken a
small portion of it right ut the part,
and curled it in little cluster to drop
over your forehead, just in the center
Then considerable portion must have
been taken at each side, and curled into
small corliscrcws, which hang straight
down each side of your face. 1t gives a
very quaint effect and, once in hun
dred girls, a pretty one. Try it.

Sly Revenge.

The spectacle of great men at play is
always delightful to us who only know
them in their serious moods. The artist
Turner was an interesting talkcr, and
was not only prodigal of interesting in
formation, but of brilliant repartce.
He was once at n dinner party at the
poet Campbell's, and spoke of art in
such a way that his listeners believed
him to consider it superior to all other
professions. After this the poet rose,
and, having alluded with mock gravity
to his friends skill in "varnishinv
painters as well as paintings" pro-
posed:
The health Of Mr.. Turner and the
worshipful company of painters and
glnZiers."
Then Turner rose, and with equal
solemnity expressed his sense Of the
honor he had received, made some good
humorcd illusions to "blottcrs of FOOLS
cap whose works were appropriately
bound in calf" and concluded by pro-
posing in return:
"The health of Mr.. Campbell and the
worshipful company of paper-stainers"

MUSCLE BUILDING.

Edwin Cbeckiey Gives Athletes Some
Sensible Advice.
10 understand your own movements,
study the joints and how best to use
them. AS higher branch of physical
inquiry, strive to acquire perfect CO.
ordination between mind and muscle,
and thus learn to contract and relax the
muscles by mere effort of the will; do
this both in groups and separately.
Having gained this power, when YOU
wish to expend n little superfiuous en-
ergy get into the country and have q
good run. Should tho tyranny of en-
vironment forbid that, then do the next
best thing, which is walking.
II you wish to acquire any physical
accomplishments, boxing, wrestling,
fencing, practice under some good
teacher. Swimming you can learn by
yourself, though not so well on dry
land, or rather you ought to have
learned that in your early childhood.
Buy bicycle or a horse If you think it
will pay for its keep. Or best of all, if
you are young enough, learn to tumble.
After you have mastered that art you
can acquire all the others by merely
looking on at them; at least such has
been my experience.
To know how to do these things is NIL
very well in its way; like the beans of
the late A. Ward, they are cheerful
fruits if taken moderately But if you
practice any of them with the idea of
gaining health and strength thereby,
you will find. and, perhaps, when it is
too late to mend matters, that you have
made large mistake. Such is not the
| way to life, physically speaking Use
Judgment, and take this as your motto:
Good air and plenty of it for the blood,
good food for the muscles and good
sense in using all your parts and be-
longings.-Edwin Checlxlcy, in Lippin-
colts.

80 sLndiss For BaoI.ward chLldren.

There is many a mother who feels dis
turbed and anxious because her child either
exhibits small interest in school, or else is
unable to shine among the other children
there. or perhaps even to keep pace with
them. She is haunted by q horrid specter
of dunceship and backwarlness and Of her
darling outstripped and left behind in all
the other struggles of life as well.
But do not let her be too soon discour-
aged If her child has no aptitude for
learning exactly what the Others are learn
in0 perhaps there is an aptitude for some
thing else quite different and apart and of
inst rs much value. Let her scIutinize and
discover and help the child along accord
inolv in the ways where nature directs
Our system Of graded schools is indeed
lifting all children to broad table land OF
general information, but however excellent
its mental discipline 1t allows no space for
individual growth in individual ways,
Every child is being run in the same mold
There is no place for idiosyncrasy or for de
Velopment upon original lines, and there IS
an ever present danger of crystallization or
becoming fixed at given point or ceasing
all development.
If her child has rooted dislike for a GER
tain thing or positive inability in the di-
rection of another, the mother would be
wiser to make an effort to have those
studies set aside and to let him give him
self to those which he does like, and where,
if he cannot possibly distinguish himself,
he can at any rate expand what power he
has. Surely If his strength and time arc
dissipated on those studies concerning
which he is hopeless there is no strength or
time left for those where he might do
much. Harriet Prescott Spolford in Chi
