The Chicago Fair appears to be
growing in popularity. Thus far the
visitors, paying an admission fee. have
exceeded 10000, 900. Should the at
tendance for the coming two months
equal expectations, the cato record
will show $40, 600, 900 paid entries. 1t
is therefore reasonable to conclude
that the receipts will pay all the debts
incurred, and surplus will remain
for distribution to the stockholders.
Only bad weather or unforeseen occur
rences can prevent this happy con
summation
Tho Investment has certainly paid
the citizens OF Chicago in business
point Of view, even if the stockholders
do not receive any dividends. Tho
f.lr has exceeded in Attendance and
receipte in money thus far any that
has ever boen held fot the sume period
1t appears TO 10 growing in pOpu
lnrlty, and il good weather shall con.
tinue, tho Stockholders Will not have
reason TO regret that they invested
their money in the enterprise II
may be classed among the wonders OF
the world.

Mr.. Edward Weer, OF tho we'll

market, concluded to celebrate Satur-
day In fitting manner. He had two
horns of the dilemma to decide. one
was an invitation to go with party
fishing. tho other was to 60 after SOUR
rels. lie decided on tho latter, and al
an early hour, with his trusted breech
loader in hand, started. All day he
tramped, but the gay little nut cracker
did not materialize, that is, all he saw

As we say, Neddy not having tina
power over the little animal, he die

his arms. Until ut the close of day
when tired and hungry, he stopped al
farm house for something TO eat
While eating, he related his adventures
During this time Ills friend, who had Q

ed to play joke upon our friend, ant
one OF them climbed up high tree
and hid it securely fastened among

Then he rushed In and asked Ned t

to shoot the squirrel. Ned wanted al
the honor, and quietly creeping GU

The proposition to construct an cleo.
trio railway from Uuionville to Le.
nape Station, Chester county, Pa, Is
said to meet the appreciation OF the
Wilmington and Northern Il. X. Com
pany, and it is prepared 10 extend sub
stantial aid. We hope the assertion is
true, as Unionville is thriving town,
In fine agricultural district, and the
proposed road would not only pay
running expenses but would also bring
many persons to our city. The per-
sons who wish to contribute to i'm.
provo tho demand for labor and aid in
restoring prosperity to our party
stricken country should afford sub
stantial aid to such enterprises.
We hope that the road will speedily
be constructed and also one from
Yorklyn to Kennett Square, Pa The
B. a o. company should extend sub.
stantlal aid to the latter There are
small connecting links in different
sections that could he proiltably built,
and the present Is the most auspi
cious time to move in the matter, az
labor and material can now be fur
nished ut very low rates.

The debates in Congress arc drag
ging their slow length along 1t is true
tho bill disseminating the purchase
of silver has passed the House, but
thus far the Senators have done
nothing but talk The purchase Of
silver therefore still goes on, and its
paleful influence does not appear to be
half ms great as has been represented,
IS money Is becoming sufficiently
abundaSt for every useful purpose.
The truth is the greater part OF the
injury experienced came from the
cutlery raised against the silver pur.
chase act" and not from tho actual
outlay OF money required by the
government. 1t was simply "a mad
dog scare. The measure has got @
bad name and 1t must be repealed ,ant
the sooner the better The obstruc,
tloGists arc Democrat and they mus
tiSe the responsibility OF tho delay.
Thus far the Senate must be styled I

was at Elton and naturally wore an Elton
jacket and a tall hat from my earliest years.
I agree with English writers on dress that
a boy, ms soon as he energies from petticoats,
should adopt a tall hat. 1t gives him a
sense of dignity, and it teaches him during
these tender years to be courtly in manner
and to be able to salute his acquaintance
with grace which it may take him long
period afterward to acquire.
OF course, in America, this is impossible.
A small boy in a top hat would be mobbed
This country is still young, and it resents
the introduction even now Of foreign fash
ions Boys here usually wear knicker
bockers until they are 10, unless they
are extraordinarily tall for their years
After that age they dress exactly as we do
except that they do not affect the swallow
tail and top hat until their eighteenth
or nineteenth year.-Vogue.

Her Methods From Her Hufbnnd.
The busy woman of the moment is the
busiest creature in existence. She is real
iy dreadfully overworked and pressed for
leisure. There are two reasons for it. One
has got to stand for awhile, let us hope for
q long while-since II is because she is
still, while poking her obtrusive little nose
about In mems work, full of her feminine
traits and characteristics. In her heart Of
hearts she has never quite given up her
liking for dawdling; she hates to be ready
on the minute; things are wearing that

she, too, takes "A train to the Office. If you
watch her en- route, you will see that she

will know by the quicker in her forehead

woman, pure and simple, is not quite de-
veloped. And as has been limited there are
some reasons why we are in no hurry that
she shall be.
| The second cause for the busy woman's
want of leisure is her want of system. This
is not wholly her fault. She is not born

business men have implanted hereditary
