Rules of the Female Diplomat.

From the Illustrated American.
The feminine domestic diplomat Is a
person of unlimited tact and good sense
She has what not to do reduced to a
science, and, above all, she is attractive.
1t is observed:
That she never describes her aches and
pains.
That she never dwells on unpleasant
"reminiscences.
That she never apologies for the food.
That she is never a martyr.
That she never corrects the children in
the presence Of any person, even the fam
lily.
That disorder of temporary nature does
not visbly disturb her.
That when the family diatrbe threatens
she knows how and when to deftly change
the subject
That she gets rid of a guest who bores
her by simply folding up a newspaper, and
the other never suspects.
That she let's every one have affairs of
her own.
That she is always polite and cordial to
the childrens friends.
That she never communicates any news
before dinner.
That she never diyulges her methods.

Work on Church Street.

The entire force of the street depart
ment are engaged on South Church
street with teams, repairing the re-
suits Of the storm. Heavy rains usual
ly prove very destructive to that To-
cality. Some remedy is greatly de-
sired by the residents. 1t appears that
the creek north of the street, during
heavy rains becomes swollen, and is
not received in the catch basin but
rushes down Church street. The
trouble, according to City Engineer
Frick, is caused by the rubbish which
people throw into the creek The wat
er would be carried off were there not
these distractions.
