A Royal Wardrobe.

The Dauphine was allowed sum of
10000 ivres for her dress alone: but
she never interfered in any way, and
everything was decided, without con-
sulting her, by the dame d'atour, who
ordered what was necessary according
to her own appreciation and settled the
bills OF the tradesmen. At the end of
the year she presented incomprehensi-
bic accounts, which the Daupl;re was
required to approve, with the result
that her expenses greatly exceeded the
allotted sum, through no faul: of hers.
Mercy was called to the rescue and dis
covered the most absurd extravaganza.
For instance, three ellis of ribbon. to tic
the powdering gown of the Dauphine,
were put down daily; also several ellis
CT silk daily to cover the basket in
which her gloves and fan were depos-
tied, with many other items of the
same kind, noted by Mercy in solemn
reprobation. With all this waste. the
arrangements about her were strangely
deficient in comfort.-Anna L. Dicknell,

THE MAN IN THE CAB,

safe and snug in the sleeping car
Are father and mother and dreaming
child.
The night, outside. shows never star,
For the storm is thick and the wind is
wild.
The frenzed train in its all-night race
Holds many a soul in it's fragile walls,
While up in his cab. with smoked-stained
face,
Is the man in the greasy ov .ralls
Through the fire-box door the heat CLOVIS
white,
The steam is kissing at all the cocks;
The pistons dance and the drive-wheels
smte
The trembling rails till the whole earth
rocks,
But never a searching eye could trace
Though the night is black and the speed
appals-
A line of fear in the smoke-stained face
OF the man in the greasy overalls.
No hating. wavering coward he,
AS he lashes his engine around the curve,
But peace-encompassed Grant or Lee,
With heart of oak and an iron nerve.
And SO ask that you make place
In the Temple to Heroes sacred halls
Where I may hang the smoke-stained
i faced
OF the man in the greasy overalls.

ALMOST SECOND NATURE.

Cyclists UncOnsciously Follow Rules
of the Road When Walking.
You can tell a bicycle rider by his
walk. Not because of popularity a
gait, but for the reason that he uncon-
sclously follows the rules of the road
that he has learned while riding a BIZ
cycle.
On the sidewalks of the crowded
streets OF New York and Brooklyn
gentleman whose acquaintance among
bicycle riders is quite extensive has.
as a matter of curiosity, watched his
cycling friends walking to and from
business. Almost without exception
they pass to the right when meeting
other pedestrians, and to the left when
passing them from behind. When
turning corner the pedestrian who has
learned to cycle hugs the wall closely
If going to the right, and is almost
sure to make long turn if bound to
the left.
IT all pedestrians would observe the
rules of the road on the sidewalks as
well as the experienced cyclists observe
them on the highways there would be
fewer toes trampled upon and fewer
persons nudged in the ribs by protrud-
ing and sharp elbows.
There is nothing more ANNOYING to
the participants and nothing more
laughable to the spectator than to see
two persons dancing up and down and
taking a series of side steps because
both started to pass each other in the
wrong direction.
The bicycle is unconsciously teaching
people how best to keep out of each
others way. Anyone who does not
think the result is sure to be beneficial
Ought to attempt to stem a crowd
coming from theater or crossing the
bridge at rush hours. There will be
no polish left on the rash individuals
shoes, there will be mud stains on his
garments, and feeling of deep, bit
ter resentment against all mankind in
his bosom.-N. Y. Journal.
