any method except time and education, Statistics are advanced to show that the colored children make more rapid progress In separate schools. One high school in the city formerly graduated fifteen to twenty colored children each year, but under the system of mixed schools the number has gradually de- creased until this year there are only four to be graduated, The spirit of the law for mixed schools would seem to require that colored teachers be em- ployed in some of the schools, but member of the board of education says that the position of a. colored teacher in mixed school would be simply un-, bearable. This condition of things makes another argument for the sapa- rate schools, inasmuch as such schools would provide places for colored teach CTS, and thus be an incentive to the ambition of the colored people.

among Americans ''it is only three generations from short sleeves to shirt sleeves" Wealth breeds habits of in-. dolence and thoughts of easy triumph. and the result is q mapping fox and a tortoise at the goal.
 Within the past few years we have, personally fallen into a habit of asking our successful friends what start they had in life towards the career in which they had shown such speed and bot tom; and, with but single exception here and there, we have found that the merchant princes, lordly financiers and eminent statesmen of our acquaintance were all poor boys, and most of them into affluence or fame. They began as boys the steady upward climb which led unfailingly to the places where they now stand They fought their way into college and battled their way through it. They did not attempt to win with rusty arms and clumsy flint locks. They realized that the condi- tions of success become more onerous every year; and realizing this they knew that their poverty was a spur while the rich lads abundance was Q handicap to his future. Instead of re- beating the tramp's excuse that "A poor man has no chance" they said to themselves that the poor man had eve- ry chance ever accorded to industry, self-denial and ambition. Some of our boy readers will do we'll to cut this out and paste it in their scrap books. The story we have told is a true story, not founded upon fact" but fact itself. Perhaps the recital of 1t may rouse the necessary courage in the heart of some lad whose fortune and honor and hap piness all lie in the awakening of his soul to high endeavor. In America it is not the most favored but "the best man" that wins If nowhere else it is with us distinctively case of the sur vival of the flttest.'

ANGELS.

These are heretical and iconoclastic
 days. Elm-leaf beetles are in church
 steeples and the Lord knows what is
 down stairs. Old faiths are giving
 place to new lights, and the bicycle and
 the Sunday newspapers are not keep
 ing the Sabbath day holy. Things be-
 ing so it is perhaps not surprising to find in a new religious paper which is published in Boston curious and bold
 suggestion that angels ought to be pie tured hereafter without wings because these are mechanical adjuncts adopted by Christian art 'in the days of it's crudity."
 It is not at all probable that this strange suggestion will find any favor, at least not until there has been g. great deal more progress" And perhaps it never will. Ideas concerning angels l may change. They have already changed. It is not now considered certain that angels are what they were thought to be three hundred years ago. But it is hard to see how Christian art can ever better represent the spiritual beings called angels than by making them bright and beautiful and giving them wings to indicate that they can
 move at will through space And it is also hard to see how art that is not Christian can afford to give up the old and beautiful idea There wouldn't be
 much art in substituting for it some electric contrivance, although a larger | idea of speed might thereby be given. No, let us keep at least the idea and l the pictures of the beautiful and the
 graceful angels with swift wings car rying love and hope and comfort and peace. It may all be as ridiculous as 1 the new theology and the new theolo-
 gians make the bible, but nobody who has particle of sentiment is yet ready to see angels pictured without wings.

Black and White and All A-FriIl.
 Black and white still holds its own as a combination, and wise women are making net blouses with big sleeves that reach to the elbow in a puff. These net affairs so on over white silk bodices or over any color for that mat ter. The bodice should be made with out fastening in front, so that it can be left open there to allow the under bod ice to be uncovered. A costume that unites black and white by the combina- tion of dress and wrap is sketched here. The dress is from mauve satin made with an untrimmed skirt and a fitted bodice that has a round white satin yoke. To this is added a short, jaunty wrap that consists of a fancy yoke of white satin embroidered around the

THE BATTLE OF LIFE.
The Boy Who Wins and the Stuff of
 Which he Must be Made.

{From the Chicago Interior.
 We were passing the window of a toy
 store, our friend, the cadet and our
 selves, when some unusual novelty drew our feet to the showcase in which
 was the display. Here were the play
 things of world exhibited upon which
 the genius of the mechanic and the ar tist had been alike exhausted. Even the balls were perfect spheres with coverings that appeared to fit as the skin fits on an apple, The dolls were dressed in Worth gowns, and their hats were after Virots own designs Ex- changing a word or two regarding the display the young West Pointer said with little sigh. T never in all my childhood owned toy except such as I
 made with my own hands" The story of this young friend of ours is worth telling, for the benefit of our boys. He has just graduated from our military academy among the honor men of his class, and is off presently for study and travel in the old world Eight years ago he was friendless lad upon a farm in Kansas. There was many bitter struggle in his own mind over questions of right and duty, and the possibilities of the future, but at last the die was cast, and the boy was on his way, sunburnt, footsore and with less than half dollar in his pocket as his sole fortune
 His first job in the city was what he had been most used to on the farm, and that was driving team. But the close of the summer found him little bettered in pocket and wholly out of employ | ment. He did not sit down and wait for that to come to him, but in forty eight hours he had made for himself | another place, engaging to work for moderate wages and the privilege of | going to school while he cared for the
 stable and carriage horses of his em. ployer Now began the battle in dead earnest, and no Wilmington about to l be Lord Mayor of London ever applied | himself more assiduously to his task. | Steadily he forged ahead of his class | mates, though limited in his hours of study, but meeting with sympathy on | the part of his employer and his family | the clouds began to part above his | head. A copy of the Youths Compan- | ion told him for the first time the story | of West Point, and that fired his mex | tinguishable ambition. Here was an | opportunity to rise by his own exer- | tions. Ascertaining when the next va | cancy in his district would occur, he set himself resolutely to distance the | most favored competitor. By the time | his examination was to be held he | knew his arithmetic by heart, and had read standard history of the United l States through sixteen times. In the | military academy he was brought into competition with young fellows who were graduates already of Yale and | Harvard and Cornell; but nothing | daunted he climbed steadily to the | front, and, as we have said before graduated among the foremost men of 1 his class. To-day he is an honored | guest where he was formerly an en- | ploye, a gentleman in his manners, a ! soldier in his bearing, and every inch a l man. In this country it is the boy of 1 grit and courage and perseverance that l gets there" Some one has said that

chiffon bows on the shoulders, and the long fichu fronts are of black lace, or grenadine may be used. Some dress makers assure their patrons that span gles are going out, but they are appear ing on many new dresses and in nu- merous instances more literally than in this picture.
 If you want to know what the really true fashion is about skirts, then know that black skirts worn with light or fancy waists are not the style, but if you want to know whether you will or will not look old fashioned in such a combination, be assured that you will not. Only, if you are buying don't get black skirt for general wear unless it is really very great bargain in price. Some women try to believe that the crinSle of silken lining is tabooed be- cause it Is no longer to be distinguished from the crackle of other lining, but there is feeling about a silk lined gown that lots of women like and want, and now that silk is so expensive there seems no reason for not having it.
