FEMININE VANITY.

1t Crops Out Even Among Women Be-
hind the Bars.
Vanity in female prisoner would
be merely laughable if it were not SO
sad to behold. 1t is, however, the one
touch of nature which proves the hui
man kinship, and there is perhaps some
hope for even these poor, degraded
creatures, if they are thus swayed by
such harmless emotions. Prison ma
irons, says the North American Review,
would be perpetually busy if they
checked every attempt made by their
charges to adopt the last fashionable
coiffure. "Bringes' are "going out"
perhaps, in general society, but they
are still amazingly popular in prison
Criminals will trim their hair as it
pleases them, and the wisest disciplin-
arian affects to see nothing OF the
fringe. In the same way, once, when
chignons were in vogue, the female felt
happy whose locks escaped the prison
scissors and were long enough to fold
over pad of oalxum. The ingenuity,
again, with which some prisoners will
twist and turn their unbecoming uni
form into some faint notion of the
fashions of the day might have earned
these artists good wages in dress
makers atelier. / have seen panniers
counterfeited and polonaises, skirts
draped or tied back, dress inprovers
manufactured out of whalebones or
horse hair; no doubt when the present
"bell" skirt is fading out of fashion 1t
will be largely patronized In Jail. The
craze for personal adornment leadf
women to skim the grease off their
scanty allowance of soup, with which
they plaster their hair. once knew

smoking In Court.

Commenting on the fact that not long
ago pastor of church In the White
chapel district in London announced
from the pulpit that in future his hear
ers might smoke their pipes during
service if they chose, Independence
Beige says there Is nothing 80 very
strange about that. In the Mexican
courts of law, it says, the smoking of
cigars Is sanctioned by hoary custom,
there one may often see q prisoner
putting away at the fragrant weed
while answering the questions put to
him by the judge, and the latter serene
ly adds to the general smoke. Mexican
teachers reward their diligent pupils
by giving them permission to smoke
cigars or cigarettes during school
hours, and whenever the worthy pedn-
gogue is in good humor the schoolroom
Is thick with smoke. Smoking begets
thirst; hence on the teachers desk
stands huge jar filled with ''pulque," ("
the national beverage, to refresh the
tutor and tutored.

American Extravagance.

1t is no wonder that foreigners scoff
at the whims of rich Americans when
one hears of such piece of extrava-
gance as is here related: Lady Beres-
ford, formerly the duchess of Marlbor-
ough, who was born here in the United
States and who married rich New
Yorker, who afterward died, has just
returned from trip with her hu iisnd,
Lord Beresford. They travelled sway
off alone into Norway, paid four tlou-
sand dollars for fishing stream and
caught two fish. AS it rs Lady Beres-
ford's money, the devotion must be on
her side of the house.

ARMoR IN MODERN USE.
Engli1h Officers In Foreign Service to Pro

EngliDh Officers In Foreign Service to Pro-
tect Themselves.
In discussing the modern use of
armor by officers and men in the for
eign ''little wars" of to-day, an English
accoutrement maker, as reported by
London Tid-Bits, SAYS: II give you my
assurance that an immense number of
the officers of our -rmy and navy who
go on foreign service, especially when
one of our little wars is expected, pro-
vide themselves with certain easily
recognized projections.
'These, mind you, are well-known
articles of trade to the service. The
commonest and most usual type Of these
projections consists of fine but beauti-
fully tempered single chains, inclosed in
in soft leather, which run along the
shoulders. down the outer side of the
arms and over certain parts of the
body. These can either be sewn into a
particular tunic or they can be adjusted
separately and put on like harness.
The most valuable of all chains, in con-
nection with accoutrements, are those
which guard the head, and in cases
where the regulation cap or helmet is
not sufficiently protected in this way,
specially made chains are sewn inside
the same and covered by the lining"

The Unfortunate Lawyer ara HIS Client

The Unfortunate Lawyer ana HIS Client,
the Nurse.
The extent to which lawyers can ex-
ercise their Imagination when pleading
in behalf of their clients is almost be-
yond belief; but sometimes the tables
ore turned in very unexpected fash
ion
On one occasion, says the Florida
Times-Union, Mr.. Swan was engaged
in presenting the case of a woman who
petitioned the court to grant her a
judicial separation from her husband,
worlSingman, and urged that as she
was in extreme poverty she was en-
titled to alimony according to her hus-
bands means.
With voice broken in it's pathos the
lawyer dilated on the imperative neces-
sity Of the case, declaring that his
client was utterly destitute, not having
Q mattress 70 lie upon, and not possess
ing the means to purchase a crust OF
bread.
When the evidence bad been heard
the Judge, who we'll knew the counsel's
unlimited powers Of exaggeration,
turned 70 the appellant and addressed
to her few questions
slave you, then, no occupation?"
"Yes, my lord, am nurse was
the incautious reply.
Sand where are you employed?"
II am at Mr. SWANS she unwitting-
" rejoined, pointing to her counsel.
It wasuwith the greatest difficulty
that the Judge refrained from joining
in the shout of laughter with which
this admission was hailed.
