the school managers laid particular stress
upon the fact that they were well born ana
or high lineage. The Spectator does not I'M
derrate the importance OF this as a recon-
gentility of breeding is something TO be
taken for granted rather than advertised
as a salable commodity. But whatever may
be the shortcomings OF these prospectrses,
or OF the schools themselves, IL is tolerSbiy
certain that all OF them are conducted with
good intentions, and in some regards with
better results than any of the colleges for
men in the land. For instance. the Specta-
tor, even though he chose a school at ran
dom from the announcements in the Gen.
tury or The Outlook or the Forum. would
never have any fear that his daughter
would return for her first vacation and con-
duct herself as two lads from college did
the other night in the Spectators village.
These lads had just finished their freshman
year. They were ~clean-cut, fresh, manly
and high social position. And yet these
lads spent the night parading the village
streets singing college songs out OF tune,
and now and then yelling like Comanche
Indians. To requests hat they stop their
noise and go home, so that tired people
ribald vulgarity meant to be witty, but not
really worthy of a "hoodlum' from the
slums of Cherry street. Now, these lads
would, a year or so ago, have blushed to
have thought Of doing such things, and
when a few more years have passed they
that they learned such ruffianly tricks and
acquired such a low taste In fun. Now, no
girls school or college in the country will
ever have such an i'll effect on any OF the
gentle little ladies who go TO them, and,
therefore, the Spectator is persuaded that,
better off than the boys, and the girls
schools better conducted.

1t would be an admirable exercise If
these advertisements were put into the
hands OF students OF English amm
and the students requested to reduce them
TO plain and fair English. If such things
were done in the schools the principals
could issue next year much shorter pros

printers charges. And, more than that.
the advertisements would be much more
attractive to sensible parents looking for
proper educational establishments But il
has probably come to be a trick of the
trade 10 speak with grandiloquence and
promise more than mortals can perform.
The Spectator received the advertisements
of not less than twenty schools in New
York city. Each one OF them had the very
best location of any private school. in the
metropolis, and yet the buildings were
scattered all over town from Union square
10 Harlem. 1t would be easier to select a
-chool, the Spectator thinks, if there were
only one advertisement to examine. But
IN looking at a miscellaneous lot of them
the Spectator has learned why ladies', in
writing letters and articles. underscore so
frequently. They are taught at school that
when a statement is meant to carry any
weight that fact must be indicated to
the reader. by underscoring. At least
struction must be given, for out of more
than one hundred catalogues examined
there was not one that was not defaced by
the employment OF italics. And 1t was not

cases every paragraph, sprinkled with this

was a large attendance at the National
Circuit bicycle races to-day. The weather
was bright and warm, and the track in
fairly good condition, though slow and not
encouraging for record-breaking or remark
able speed contests. The chief features of
the day were the remarkable work of
Sanger, the Milwaukee flyer, who carried
off four of the best prizes, including the
international invitation prize, and the at
tempt of Bliss to beat his half-mile rec

half mile in SO seconds, which broke the

regularly every autumn season, when the
know they are looking their particular best.
Taken in street gown and hat. they all pre-

French fancy, and a pretty one. too, though
the smartest photographer in New York
is beginning to take women by a process
entirely new. He photographs heads on
Japanese rice paper. The result. with a
well-featured face in profile. is something
indescribably beautiful. The delicate
film is laid over cream-tinted cardboard.

etching on ivory, and women who have
rounded chins, well-molded noses. fair
brows and lips seem to have their good

lay heaps OF pictures, showing the new

Care of Hardwood Floors.
New York Evening Sun.

New 1Ork Evening gun.
In her memorandum book of good things
to be remembered any houseke0er is sure
to set down the rules for proper cleaning
that her maids sweep them with hair
brushes, or a common broom over which a
cloth Is always pinned. So much care
answers well enough until the time for an
autumn cleaning arrives, when 1t is all
important that the floor be renovated and
polished so well that it's fine gloss will en-
dure for a twelve month. She Is apt first
over them a damp cloth only, for scrub
bling with soap and water means hasty
destruction OF the finest wood. The sur
face is next gone over with a cloth dipped
In equal parts OF raw linseed oil and tur-
pentine, laid on sparingly and rubbed in
for the polish, If her preference is for the
oil finish. Otherwise, when the floor Is
clean and dry. she wakes it. The wax she
buys all prepared at the shops where hard
wood flooring Is made and laid. A two
pound can of the wax will put a floor in
order for a year. Its application Is very
simple. Tn wax is soft, and a maid lays
1t on by simply rubbing it over lightly and
scantily with a rag. When this has aired
and dried for a half hour she polishes il
ready for use again. Once or twice a week
the weighted brush Is lightly run over the
floor after 1T has been swept, and until an
other autumn cleaning the floor Is in per-
feet condition. Where at doors, in front OF
desks, perhaps additional hard usage rubs
off the polish, an extra coating of wax can
be added from time to time and polished
in. When a hardwood floor has been badly
used 1t should be cleaned with t~urpentine,
as one would wash 1t with water. vigorous
