Correct Things i'm CaIIing-Cards.

1t is considered better form for
young girls to have their mothers
name printed on their cards for formal
occasions. OF course, girls can have
their separate cards as we'll.
When the names are engraved to-
gether, long card made from strong,
stiff cardboard is used. The fad for
thin. fimsy cards has entirely gone
out. Girls cards are also much
smaller than they were, measuring
three and quarter by two and quar-
ter inches. Never under any circum-
stances have your name on your card
without the prefix Mrs. or Miss. 1t
is exceedingly bad form to have card
with simply your name on it, and even
worse form to use written cards
Never use anything but engraved
cards, with plain, clear letters and no
ornamentation or elaboration in the
lettering. Your name in the center,
and your number and street on the
right-hand side, at the bottom If you
live in the country, and your country
house has name, put it on the right
hand side of your card
If you wish TO have your day at
home on your card, it should be in
the lower left-hand corner, opposite
the address. Do not, however, have
one day specialized on your card I'M
less you make point Of being at home
on that particular day. The girl who
has but little time for social activities
will do we'll to leave the space vacant,
merely writing in a day when, once or
twice a season, she desires to receive
friends for afternoon tea.- From ''Eti
quette and Good Form in the Use of

DANGEROUS CATERPuLARS.

Armed with VERY Effective Weapon
for Defense.
The caterpillar of the puss moth,
quite a common insect in this country,
has a most effective way of defending
himself, and may prove, as we shall
presently see, dangerous even to hui
man beings, says a writer in Cham
bers' Journal This well-protected cat
erpillar is provided between it's head
and forelegs with a cleft, from which
it can protrude an organ capable of
squirting out a quantity of very acid
fluid to a considerable distance, and
when alarmed it habitually makes use
of this formidable weapon.
In one of the chronological maya
zines a correspondent states that he
was observing some of these caterpil-
lars in captivity, when he happened
to disturb one, and it suddenly squirt
ed out a quantity of fluid in jet, which
struck one of his eyeballs, though his
head at the time was quite two feet
away from the insect. He rushed off
in great agony to a doctor, who told
him that the eyeball was in a very dan
gerous condition. His eye was totally
blind for hours after the occurrence.
and it was some days before he finally
recovered. What the effect of this fluid
must be upon smaller creatures we
leave our readers to imagined

GOOD WORDS FOR WASHINGTON
Improvement I'm Moral Tone OF the
Nations Capital.


Nations Capital
Gen. Fl. V. Boynton, the veteran Wash
ington correspondent, has been for
more than 80 years collecting news and
writing letters. Few men know so
thoroughly as he the inside history of
the capitol, the white house, and the
departments. Being asked what he
considered the most important deduc-
ton from his experience at Washington,
he answered:
'The marvellous improvement in the
moral atmosphere, and the general tone
and honesty of the government. We,
the people of the United States, have
the most honest government in the
world. 1t is and has been for many
years more honest than ever before,
and is to-day more honestly and eff
GENTLY administered than any private
business that have ever examined. l
mean that there is less waste and less
defalcation.
Look at the great postal service, for
instance. Where in the world will you
find any private agency which does so
much and does it so well, and at so little
cost? And change of parties makes no
difference. Thorough honesty is the
rule.
''The atmosphere of the white house
is pure beyond that of any royal resi-
dence, and this is the most moral and
peaceable city in the United States, if
not in the world. It makes me laugh
when those good people come from New
York and Cincinnati and away out west
to help reform Washington

approached by the recorder of Savan-

not leave the province until he had
given bond in 6 so sterling, and in ad-
dition furnished bail to answer Mr..
Williamson's charge. Wesley respond

A ChicagOO
Newspaper !

Every selfsupported and self-respect-
ed head of family in this section ought
to take at least two newspapers-his own
home paper and the Chicago Journal.
We give the preference to the local
paper, because that is the one that comes
nearer home to the man, and in which
he should have a direct, personal and
friendly interest.
Newspapers cost so little nowadays,
however, that it entails no heavy burden
on anyone able to rear his family decently
to enable him to take both his local paper
and The Journal. In no other way is it
possible to get SO much of pleasure and
profit at SO little expenditure of money
The Chicago Journal is the leading
newspaper published in the West, indie
pendent in politics, and at all times ana
under all conditions advocating what it
believes to be right and just to all men.
The Journal is easily the popular
paper Of this section. 1t contains every
