MULES, GOATS AND HE'LL.

Blessed is the man who magnifeth
the advantages of his own town and
standeth by it with loyal deeds when
others speak evil of it continually, far

with no public spirit will be punched
with the mules and the goats and
shipped to the land where they don't

An Eastern editor says that a man
in New York got himself into trouble
by marrying two wives. A Western
editor replies by assuring his contem-
porary that a good many men in that
section had done the same thing by
marrying one. A Northern editor
retorts that quite number OF his ac.
quaintances found trouble enough by
promising to marry, without going
any further. A Southern editor says
Il friend OF his was bothered enough
when simply found in company with
another mans wife.

A reporter on this paper dreamed,
the other night that the editor dc.
cided to get out a paper for once in
his career that was Entirely Salts
factory, says the Atchison Globe.
Every item that was carried around
to different houses, and, if any OBJ
jections were made, it was killed. At
4 O'Clock the paper went to press as
usual, and when the patrons unfolded
it that evening they found nothing
but a blank sheet. The editor slept
sweetly that night, realizing that he
had printed nothing to offend any
body, and that he was for once En-
tirely Satisfactory.

An exchange is decidedly correct in
this statement and we endorse every
word contained herein:
"One of the follics Of unthinking,
impotent Journalism is the g~ratutlous
looming of candidates. The publish
RS space bears the same relation TO
his success that the lawyers advice
and the doctors prescriptions do
theirs. 1t is as staple an article as the
grocer's sugar and coffee, or the dry
goods mans calicOes and ginghamS.
1t takes money to buy advice, pre-
scriptions, groceries and dry goods.
1t should take money to buy ncwspa-
per space, and the publisher who per-
sists in this gratuitOuS nOnSenct
brands himself as a "ninny" who is
unfit in brains and courage to occupy
the sanctum. One Of the reasons why
the newspaper profession occupies
secondary place to that of law, arc
medicine and theology, is this matter
of gratuitious service so prOdigalll
rendered everybody"

DID NOT Do MIRACLEs.-A little
town near Providence boasts Il church
whose pastor, besides being an elo-
quent preacher, is a man Of Stalwart
proportions. At one Of his evening
prayer meetings the services were dis,
turbed by two young men, who audi
bly, scoffed at everything they saw or
heard. Finally the pastor remon-
strated with them on their behavior,
andaskcd them why they attended
themeeting.
1--WE came expecting to see miracles
performed" i%mpudcntly replied one
of the rascals. Leaving the desk and
walking quietly down the aisle, the
pastor seized n after the other by
the collar, and, as they disappeared
out of the door, remarked: 1--WE don't
perform miracles here, but we do cast
out devils ."-Boston Globe.

A GLASS EYE CASE.

A Cincinnati man has applied for a
divorce from his wife on the ground
that she was guilty Of deception. she
having represented herself to be ply
sically sound and anatomically per-
feet, whereas she concealed from her
afrectionate husband the fact that she
had Il glass eye which, he declared she
artfully concealed behind Il pair Of
s~pcctacles. He ayerred that he had
been married a yelr before he discov-
cred the imposture, and took the view
that the fraud entitled him To Il COM
plete release from his marital Obliga-
tions, but he lost his case. The Bal
timore Herald says:
The learned judge dlssented from
this opinion Of the applicant, basing
his Judgment upon the assumption
that no principle in law compelled IA
woman during courtship to acquaint
her intended husband with her ply
steal defects, and that it was entire
ly permissible to ''imprOve the work
Of nature"
Doubtless the learned jurist was
prompted TO decide as he did by a
knowledge Of the extent to which ar
tiaces are employed by the fair sex for
tile purpose Of rendering their appear
ance more attractive. And this pro-
ceeding must be justified, since in
most cases, Il w0man'S future depends
upon her power to attract.
At any rate, a signing lover who has
not learned to distinguish a glass eye
froma real optic after months Of in
innate association with the object of
his affection is not a subject for SYM
patty. and deserves no redress.

SOME BEAUTY HINTS.
Rational Exercise and Peace of Mind
Are the Best Complexion Pow
der Yet Discovered.

In some cases poor compilation
arises mainly from lack of exercise.
Women who live an entirely sedentary
life have slow circulation and usually
a bad digestion, and these are fertile
causes of a muddy -appearing skin. Ex-
ercise gives rapidity to the movement
Of the blood, stimulates digestion and
Gains the nerves, and is frequently
more beneficial than any sort of medi-
cine, although it should not be INDUCED
in Immediately after meals. Physicians
are beginning to recognize the fact that
drugs are not the most potent restora-
tives, and that exercise, peace of mind,
congenial society and recreation are not
merely luXuries, but necessities if good
health is to be preserved. Chapped and
rough lips are not only painful, but dis
figuring, and it is advisable never to
go into the open air without previously
using little glycerin or vaseline upon
the mouth. To moisten the lips with
the tongue has drying effect upon the
skin ultimately, and the habit is one
to be vigorously avoided. Toilet soap of
inferior quality is extremely injurious
to the complexion. Only the best soap
should be employed, and that does not
necessarily mean the soap most ex-
pensively gotten up with lace and rib
bons. Pure glycerin or olive oil soap
unscented, is very good and not special
ly costly.-Cincinnati Commercial Trib-

Tinsel Fabrics for Summer.

This is glittering season. Summer
dress goods continue to be woven with
tinsel threads and very pretty are the
effects thus obtained. In the dark
diaphanous materials the cleaning
suggestive of tinsel is most effective.
The newest gauze used, either as a
trimming or for entire evening gowns
comes traced in swirling design in gold
and silver threads, and the latest NOUS
seine de sole is embroidered with gilt
tering threads. To the English is due
the praise for the luminous powder
which when applied to fabrics gives
them the brilliant, scintillating color
ing of the opal by day and render them
phosphorescent by night.

IMPROVING HER CARRIAGE.

exercise is invaluable for Strengthening
inc neck and developing the muscles
of the neck and shoulders and reducing
the size of the waist and abdomen.
But great many other exercises in
volving the stretching of the muscles
can be used in connection with these to
advantage, as they are less violent.
For instance, standing firmly with
the toes we'll turned out, put the feet
quite near together, with both arms ex-
tended nearly at right angles with the
body, reach as far as possible, first to
the right and then to the left, as if en-
deavoring to reach a wall at some dis
tance from the body.
Vary this motion by twisting the
body upon the waist, so that the right
arm is reaching as far to the left as pos
sible, and in turn the left arm reaching
to the right.
Vary again by standing facing a wall
and touching it with the tips of the
fingers of both hands. After each touch
move away about half an inch farther
until it is with the utmost difficulty
that you can touch the wall at all: Then
repeat several times in succession.
All these movements are invalua BILE
for improving the carriage of the body
and reducing the size of the waist. All
should be taken very slowly and in con.
nection with deep, slow, even breath.

tesses to BE Happy While They
Are EntertaininE.

How to be hap py though the hostess
OF large dinner party iswhat young
woman, at the rate of from three to
live dollars an evening, is showing a
number of wealthy women. This young
woman, in looking around for a means
of bread-winning, decided to become a
professional bearer of dinner party anx-
ieties. What she does is to manage din
ners or wedding breakfasts or large
luncheons, and, though she neither
cooks nor waits on table, she fulflls a
most important mission.
She stands before the hostess in all
worry. A half hour before the meal is
served she appears in the dining-room
and sees to it that the butler has got
the table set, and that the wines are
rising or falling to precisely the right
temperature. Then she dons her big
apron, and as guests file into the dining
room she takes her stand by the pan
try's dumb-waiter to see that every dish
comes up exactly on time, piping hot
when it ought to be hot, chilled to the
marrow when the chill is necessary,
and, furthermore, she tastes it to see
that it's flavor is exactly what it ought
to be. Having quick wit, resourceful
mind and knowledge of French cook
cry, she takes care that no dish passes
to the table that is not above reproach
Where she stands in the pantry there is
heard none of the crash and grind of
dinner party machinery; no long waits
between courses elapse.
Now, this may seem sinecure, but
grateful hostesses look upon her work
as exalted modern philanthropy, for
| even if the butler is new man, the cook
u possible traitor to her trust and the
caterer apt to play tricks with ices and
sorbets, so long as the dinner manager
is at the pantry helm nothing can go
wrong. With all the ease of an unfet-
tered soul the hostess can give her
whole mind to her guests. If she is a
hostess new at the business she can
send for the manager beforehand and
have her dinner all planned for her,
every detail considered, even to the
color of the flowers and the pattern on
the tablecloth, and the very latest sur
prise in an epicurean delicacy worked
up for the envious delectation of her
guests. But this is an extra.-N. Y

SHIRT-WAIST BOX.

and put two small brass hinges on the
back. The inside should be covered
first and the material drawn tight.
The sides and front of the one shown
here are laid in large box plaits, the
back being perfectly plain. The lid
should be padded with one or two layers
of cotton and finished with rufae
about three inches wide tackled on the
top of the lid so it will fall down over
the box about two inches. This re-
quires five yards of creton. For the
outside brass head tapestry tacks
should be used.
This is not only a very useful but
an ornamental article as we'll. With a
few pillows thrown on it it makes a
very pretty window seat; in the winter
it can be used for packing away your
summer clothes; it also makes a very
dainty trunk for baby's things. In
fact, its scope of usefulness is unlim-
ited.-Radford Review.

SHIRT WAIST BOX.
The One Here Described Is Not Only .
Very Useful But an Ornamental
Article a. Well.

With the shirt-waist season comes
the difficulty of finding place to keep
our waists without mussing them.
When stiffiy starched they take up q
great deal of room in the dresser, and if
hung in the closet are more likely to be
on the floor the greater part of the
time. Shirt-waist boxes are not new
departure, but as rule the ready
made ones are so expensive that the
girl in ordinary circumstances cannot
afford them.
The box shown in the accompanying
illustration is covered with pale blue
and white creton and the entire cost
was only 80 cents. While the light stuffs
make very dainty effect, the darker
ones are more serviceable and will not
soil so quickly. Get a large rolled
oats or oatmeal box from your grocer

To Have White Hands.

Every woman can have pretty hands
no matter whether she be compelled
to do her own homework or not.
Washing the hands in little mustard
water and then rinsing them well is
excellent for cleansing them after
handling substances with an unpleas-
ant odor. A lemon bath, too, is de-
lightful luxury for both the hands and
face and gives the skin an enviable
sense of cleanness and smoothness. In
short, the lemon is cure for nearly
all the ills that a summer woman's
complexion is heir to, and she who has
not adopted it will do well to do sc
immediately.
