Best Dining Car Service in the World
The Rock Island is foremost in
adopting any advantage calculated
TO improve speed and give that lux
ury, safety and comfort that popular
patronage demands. Its equipment
IS thoroughly complete with vesti-
buled trains. magnificent dining
ears, sleepers and chair coaches, all
the most elegant, and of recently i'm
proved patterns.
Faithful and capable management
and polite, honest service from en-
ployes are important items. They
are double duty-to the company
and to travelers-and it is sometimes
a task difficult of accomplishment.
Passengers on this line will find little
cause for complaint on that ground.
REMEMBER
The Great Rock Island Route runs all
regular trains to Englewood subur-
ban station, close to Worlds Fair
grounds, and you can save time and
trouble by getting off at that point
and avoid the crowd in the city.

what to Do with Bell skirts.

There is no doubt that the absorbing
topic of feminine interest just now is the
question Of what is to be done with last
summers bell skirts. The fact is be-
coming palpabie, painfully SO, to the
women who walk up and down street
and avenue eying each other critically,
that the 1880 skirt is not success as far
as the average homemade one is con-
cerned, and the majority are not mil
lionairesses and do make our skirts at
home. The pictures afe beautiful in the
fashion books, but as usual the ideal is
far too high, and in this case too wide to
be realized. Most of the skirts are made
without cores around the waist, and in
consequence catch up awkwardly in
front, which is agonizing unless ones
footwear is perfect.
No one who has handsome dresses,
worn maybe twice last summer, is going
to discard them for this monstrosity.
For such there is way out of the diff
Guilty, a simple lifting of the be1l skirt
A triangular piece is cut off from the
back width of the bell skirt, and then
it is gathered into the waistband. By
lining the bottom with piece of hair
cloth only five inches wide the desired
stiffness is given, and you have skirt
quite enough in the style to last during
the present fashion, which is evanes-
cent.--W Washington Post.

A Breach of Good Breeding.

During the past winter lady, OPEN
ing new, large and handsome house,
issued invitations for ball. Out of
nearly 800 acceptances, 1876 failed to ap-
pear, and yet they had all been provided
for in the entertainment. Another lady
gave smaller party, and out of 150 per-
sons who accepted rs did not go. Then
again, when invitations had been issued
for private theatricals or readings and
definite answers had been requested by
reason of the seats, the acceptances were
not at all considered, and the hostess
was prevented from asking other friends
the invitations being linited-because
she could not believe that chairs by doz-
ems would be empty. She took the ac-
ceptance, as any true woman would have
done, in good faith.
There may be reasons why some few
persons at the last moment are prevent
ed from attending party, but not in
the numbers above given. When such
things do occur, a well bred person will
send his or her apology, which of course
is courteous and admissible. But to ac-
cept an invitation not meaning to at
tend, and for the absurd reason, as has
been given, that it is more polite to ac-
cept than to refuse, is the height of i'll
breeding, impoliteness and discourtesy.

Women For Postmasters.

The news comes from Washington that
the president has promulgated an order
that "women who received presidential
appointments under former administra-
tons are to be placed on the disqualified
list with masculine ex-officeholders :"
This means in effect simply that the
women who have been appointed post
masters under former administrations
will not be appointed again, for very few
women indeed have been appointed to
any other position than that of postmas-
ter.
1t may be added that it would be well
if the president would now adopt the
further rule of appointing women as
postmasters in every case where he can
do SO consistently with the public inter
est. They have but small share of Off
cial places at the best and should receive
all the consideration that can be extend
ed to them in the small field of employ
ment that is open to them. The services
of men are required in the larger postof-
fees undoubtedly, but women can and
do fill the minor ofices-such as those in
most of the towns and ges-whoTly
to the satisfaction Of the public and of
the ,postoffice department. No man
should be appointed postmaster when a
woman can be found to discharge the du-
ties Of that position. We are sure that
this plan would be approved by the peo-
pie generally, and we venture to express
the hope that it will commend itself to
the approval of the president. CHARLES

Literary women and Husbands.

Some idiot, having nothing else to do,
has recently wspt over women with al
legged brains because they can't get hus-
bands. These alleged brains interfere.
Men won't have them for wives at any
price. For proof of this assumption this
idiot names various literary women who
are unmarried. The conclusion arrived
at is that these women are single because
they have had no chance to be otherwise
AS matter Of fact there are few women
In this country who cannot marry early
and often if they wish. The proportion
of unmarried literary women is no larger
than unmarried any other kind of women.
Men marry and women marry when
actuated by love, not because the oppo-
site sex has or has not gigantic intel
lect, but because of personality. When
literary women are attractive IN person
OF manner, or possess the indescribable
je ne sais quoi, which often goes farther
than beauty, they draw the opposite sex,
and vice versa. George Sand and George
Eliot and Mrs. Browning had no beauty
whatever, but they appealed to certain
men very decidedly. The old fashioned
idea of the bas bleu died some time ago.

this warning to mothers and guardians
Of such young persons who may visit

Care should be taken lest the young
visitor be exposed to evil influences. The
worst as well as the best Of man and
womankind will be in Chicago during
the next six months. Unfortunately it
Is true that tho worst are often more
active than the best. We urge upon
parents the following suggestions:
If possible, accompany your daughters
on their visit to the Worlds fair, but
under no consideration permit them to
leave home without tho escort and su-
pervision of a trustworthy person of ma
ture age and experience.
If you have no relatives or friends
with whom you can stay while in the

arrive in the city after business houri
alone and friendless, it would be wise t.
ask information from the janitress in the

to remain under her protection during
the remaining hours of the night.
Make no hasty acquaintances OF The

wedding of Mrs. Bischoffsheim's niece,
Miss Rose Goldsmith, with Baron Kon-

There was nothing specially remarkable
about the wedding dress, which was
trimmed with chiffon and had court

quaint Dutch costume, but the bouquet
was composed almost entirely orange

green and yellow oranges which gave q
pretty touch Of color to the purity of
the bridal attire. The bridesmaids cos

These souvenir coins are of peculiar in

provides for the minting Of $4,000, or
10000 quarters; hence they will be ex-

Art work by Women.

To those who have paid no particular
attention to the work that women are
doing in the applied arts, the exhibition
of their work lately seen at the American

nrns. Cieveiand's school Days.

Mrs. Cleveland was not noted for be-
ing brilliant scholar while at school or
college. She was an indolent, fun low
ing girl and was not a ''goody goody'' or
''holy terror" Her first French com
position was biographical account of
EugneneSue, very badly written asfaras
penmansfip goes and crouched in the
hu1nbless of French words. She called
herself Frank in those days and was
very fond Of dancing and having her
"pictar took" She was a real, little,
simple American girl without any ex-
traordinary talents. Probably that was
why she wasso popular with the people
ofa democratic land. She had no ultra
aristocratic training or manners or preju-
dices. It remains to be seen whether aft
er her social experiences of eight years
she will be as much of favuriteas ever.
