The Popular Fox Terrier.

All terriers are good. They are as
shrewd, game, loyal small chaps as
ever stood upon canine feet or gazed at
their owner with soulful, loving eyes,
and of them all prefer the fox ter
rier, either wire-haired or smooth
coated. These aristocratic, diminu-
tive gentlemen unquestionably are
today the most popular dogs in the
wide, wide world, and there are many
excellent reasons why this should be
SO. From the palace to the cottage
these dogs have proved their sterling
qualities to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned, and they are especially we'll
suited to the conditions which govern
in crowded centres.
When the big St Bernard, mastiff,
Dane or other heavy breed is painting
in the contracted backyard, bowling
on chain, pining for exercise aud
freedom, the terrier is merely having
fun, busying himself about the house,
warning of doubtful intruders and
generally attending to everything
which appears to require supervision.
Clever, alert and stout hearted, he
never relaxes his guard and he fears
nothing. His cleverness, as q rule, is
safeguard against his making mis-.
takes regarding the desirability of
visiting strangers. He seems instinc-
lively to recognize persons who are
not wanted about the premises, and
woe to them II their mission. be evil
and their desire a stealthy invasion.
He protests promptly and vigorously,
and he will not cease until some one
of his household has appeared and

Probably no woman, save perhaps
her colleague and friend, Lady Henry
Somerset, has been heard in this coun-
try by so many audiences. As a
speaker she was admirable, interest
ing from beginning to end and "alive"
to any interruption. She had an ac-
cent which betrayed the land of her
birth, but 1t was not hindrance to
her appreciation by people here. A
keen sense of humor and a great
knowledge Of poetry were additional
aids to her oratory. Her portraits
gave good idea of the clear cut face,
the firm, lawyer like lips, the bright
eyes behind the gold pincene2, the
determined chin and braided hair.
Her many friends we're always so en-
thusiastic about her that there was al
ways o good deal about Miss Willard
in the newspapers. But she herself
desired notoriety much less than the
accomplishment Of good. She wanted
to die working and she has had her

Qussrest Town in England.

The most curious town in England
is Norwich. There is not q straight
street, nor, in fact,a straight house in
the place; every part Of it has the ap-
pearance of having suffered from the
visitation Of an earthquake. Norwich
is the centre Of the salt industry in
Cheshire, England, on nearly all sides
Of the town are big salt works, with
their engines pumping hundreds Of
thousands OF gallons OF brine every
week. At depth Of some 200 to 800
feet are immense subterannean lakes
Of brine, and as the contents Of these
are pumped and pumped away, the
upper crust Of earth is correspondingly
weakened aud the result is an occa-
sionsl subsistence. These subsidences
have pulling" effect on the nearest
buildings, and they are drawn all ways
and give the town an extremely dis
sipated appearance.

Tho BcnutifyInr Bath.

II is not infrequently said that n
daily bath is weakening. This is such
n great mistake that tits difficult to un.
derstand how it is ever made. A daily
bath is just as necessary to bodily
purity as daily prayers are to soul
purity, and it should be as conscien-
tiously taken. In some place, and at
some time that cannot be recalled, :,
this observation has come to my
notice, and its truth made its impress.
sion a lasting one: "a lady bathes not
to get clean, but to stay clean"
II is true that remaining too long
in the bath may be weakening, but O
quick bath in either very warm or
even hot water, followed by a cold
dash, has only good effects.
A refreshing and practical bath is
one in moderately hot water with q
little sea salt in it-sea salt is practi-
cal and cheap-pure white soap, q
sponge and cheese cloth wash rag.
Cheese cloth is both practical and
cheap, at the same time sufficiently
rough to remove all dirt and not rough
enough to scratch. The sponge must
serve rs n shower bath, and after the
body is thoroughly dry, rubbing corn
meal or bran over it makes it soft and
velvety.
The use Of bag OF bran instead Of
n wash rag is much favored by the
French women for the softening eff
feet it has upon the water and its
tendency to make the skin delicately
smooth and white. But no bath is
perfect in its results unless followed
by brisk and vigorous frictions of
the hands or rubbing with a coarse
towel. -Woman's Home Companion.

16 years have velvet ribbon edging the
ruffles on the waist and skirt similar
to those prepared for women. These
frocks also have yokes Of tucked silk

in profusion on children's dresses.
The belts are made of No. 8 or No. 12

and two ends falling to the lower edge
OF the skirt. Since sashes have re-

most distangy. Oh, You dear, sweet
little Lucy, you shall certainly be my
bridesmaid.
''But you'll be very careful Of it?"
said Lucy, whose heart was beginning
to sink within her.
"Of course will," said Maria
Hart.
And they took their leave, and with
them went out poor little Lucy's peace
of mind.
The next day but one parcel was
left at the door for Mrs. Evelyn by n
disreputable-looking little boy. Nornh
carried IL up and laid IL on Lucy's
bed. The poor girl could hardly wait
to open IL until she was alone.
II was the pink silk dress, creased
and crumpled, with note pinned to
1t in Maria Harts coarse handwriting:
Dear Lucy; Return the Dres. Had tho
Misfortune to spill little Izc-creme on tho
side-bredth, but have took II out with Ben
zeen, so Noe one would Know. am mutch

MARIA.
With fainting heart Lucy unrolled
the parcel and saw the dress was
ruined; what the oleaginous stream of
ice cream had commenced the daubs
of benzine had finished most eiliec-
tually.
Lucy burst into tears, and, sinking
down in chair, hid her face in her
hands.
81 knew it was wrong, "she sobbed.
"Oh, why, why did | allow myself to
be over persuaded? / have been false
to my charge. have proved myself
unworthy to be trusted. ] shall be
dismissed without n reference, and
mothers heart will be broken!"
Mrs. Evelyn came back the next
day. Lucy Lee met her with face
like n ghost.
"Why, child, what is the matter?"
said Mrs. Evelyn kindly.
And Lucy, with a faltering voice,
told the whole truth, exculpating her
self in no one particular.
"Oi course you'll discharge me,
mama" said Lucy, "but il you'll be
so good as to wait / know mother'll
pay the value of the dress in INSTALL
ments out of her wages, and I'll make
it good to her when l get another
place--if ever 1 dol"
And venturing to glance through
her tears into Mrs. Evelyn's face she
saw that IL had not hardened into the
stony anger she had expected to be-
hold. Mrs. Evelyn laid her hand
kindly on the shrinking shoulder.
Lucy" said she, "you have had
lesson. See that you profit by it in
the future"
'"Thsn-then You will not discharge
me?" futtered Lucy, scarcely able to
believe in her own good fortune.
'No," said Mrs. Evelyn, kindly,
mot this time. For your mothers
sake, Lucy-and also for your OWL
will give you another trial"
SO poor Lucy Lee kept her place,
after all, and Mrs. Evelyn had no
cause to regret her leniency. For
Lucy needed no more than that one
lesson to teach her that "the way of
the transgressor is hard"

1t is only OF late years that IL has
been possible for women to pursue
medico-legal studies. Even after they
were allowed TO practice medicine il
was several years before the doors Of
the courts were opened TO them, and
even then the practical difficulties
were so many as to prevent any Of
them from making that departure.
Not that there has been any very
great discrimination in the matter, be-
cause it has been almost as difficult for
men. The standards OF the profess
sions have been raised so high thnt

possible before the age OF 16. The
modern college course is four years;
the course in medical school is now
four years, and in the leading law

Costumes of sardInians,

The women Of Sardinia are de-
scribed by visitor to that island as
being of elegant figure and graceful
carriage, with large black eyes, dark
hair and brunette complexion. They
dress in very much the same style as
women in other parts of Europe, ex-
cept that there is not the same ex-
treme haste to adopt the latest fashion.
The wives and daughters of the far
mers and tradesmen, by the gor-
geousness of their costumes, amply
compensate for the simplicity of dress
among the upper classes; and at their
religious fetes and other festivals,
when they appear in gala dress, they
present wonderful spectacle. These
costumes are sort of family heir
loom, handed down from mother to
daughter and treasured as highly as
hereditary jewels OR ancestral por-
traits. The fashion never changes,
and instead of being ashamed Of being
seen in the same dress at two differ
ent entertainments, they glory in its
antiquity and in the number OF occa-
sions 1t has been worn. The costumes
OF the women vary greatly in different
parts Of Sardinia. In some districts
small black jacket, open in the
front, is worn over q very short bodice
Of bright colored silk and brocade,
which is loosely laced before and cut
rather low; there are apparently no
corsets. The petticoat is of light
brown cloth, very full, and between it
and the bodice is sort of neutral
ground OF protruding garment, which
by means adds to the general beauty
Of the toilet.-Chicago Times H Herald.
