NEW YORK, April 13.-A dispatch to
the Herald from St. Petersburg says:
The Novosti scores the American leg
lsiature for their attitude toward Spain
on the Cuban question. 1t says: THE
revolution would have been finished
long ago had not III been for the sup
port of America. From an interna-
tional point of view the attitude of the
Americans cannot bear criticism. 1t is
due to an extravagant appetite for the
extension of the United States. Spain's
cause is lost, for she IS dealing not
with Cuba, but with America

DoN'TBE VuLGAR.-YuIgar women
like to attract attention; they are
loud in their dress and talk they can
be seen and heard at a distance /;
they are numerous, generally annoy
ing and often offensive.
Vulgar women walk like grena-
diers they come down on their heels
with force enough TO shake anything
from an ''L" railroad station to a
summer hotel piazza.
Vulgar women discuss private mat
tiers in public; their conversation is
audible to p~assers-hy ; they invite the
observation of strangers, and they
are flattered by the familiar com
ments of lunkies, fiirts, fakirs and
loafers.
Vulgar women appear in public
wearing brilliant colors, brilliant
checks, audible perfumes, jewelry,
and sensational styles.
Vulgar women may win admira-
ton but not respect; before an indi-
vidual is respected by others, she
must respect herself.

A Boys Experience.

Last Friday Mr.. f. b. Beall, of
this place. visited Charles Town 7
witness the ~dedicatory ceremonies of
the Rouss Fire Engine Hal. bis
little SON, Frank, who wanted TO ac-
company him, was prevented from
doing so by same little home duties,
Int after these were performed his
mother, yielding to the pleadings of
The child, told him he might follow
his father, supposing he would be
easily found by the lad when he
reached Charles Town. On arriving
there great was his perplexity in
not finding his parent, although
diligent search was made to that end,
when the lad, believing it was train
time, started for the depot with the
expectation of meeting his father
there, but was disappointed. Being
told that he must go to the B. & o.
crossing in order to take the train
for Berryville, he fastened in that
direction and while passing over q
culvert fell from the trestle ito the
ground below, where he lay in an
unconscious condition for some time.
Finally q track-waikcr in passing
heard his groans, picked him up and
carried him to his watch box, where
the boy revived and told who he was
and where he was from. He was
put upon the train the next morning
and sent home, impressed with the
idea that he would not like to go
through with a similar experience
for some time.-ClarIe Courier.
