Mr.. AUBREY BEARDsLE7, who IS
the latest London fad, has set all the
girls to measuring their legs. In his
new novel, which has just been be-
gun in the Savoy Magazine, he
describes his heroine as follows:
Helen was adorably tall and slen-
der. Her neck and shoulders were
wonderfully drawn, and the little
malicious breasts were full OF the
irritation of loneliness. Her arms
and hands were loosely but delicateIy
articulated, and her legs were di-
vinely long-from the hip to the
knee, twenty two inches; from the
knee to the heel twenty two inches
as befitted a goddess" II these
proportions are accepted as the ideal
of end-century beauty, what is to
become of the short girls? Shall we
have to follow che example of the
Chinese, and drown them?

The Cubans declare in the most emphatio
manner that the half has not been told
concerning Spanish cruelty and inhu-
manity. On his side Weyler denies it as
solemnly. 1t is very easy, however, to
disolaim responsibility for outrages that
underofficers do by the assertion that
they exceeded orders and the command
ing general regrets it greatly, etc.
That seems to be what Weyler does. But
this ought not to be allowed to serve as
an excuse for continued butcheries.

tired OF fighting and are preparing to

that his people are ruined by famine,

true, and on that account the authors
ties ought to prepare measures Of re-.
