Judge Thomas, Of the United States
Court, sitting in New York city, dis
missed an indictment against man
charged with advertising immoral
books. receiving money with orders for
such books and then sending nothing
whatever and refusing to refund the
money. The court held that there r.
no law to punish a man for failure to
do an unlawful act Said the court.
Dissemination Of such things is moral
murder, just as much as there is physi-
cal murder. Should a person agree
with another to commit murder and
then fell to do il he could hardly be
prosecuted for fraud. If man should
90 into a shop and pay for an immoral
book or picture andhnd, when he opened
his package at home. that he had in
stead a picture of the Madonna. or a
good book, he would have no redress
against the bookseller. Anyone answer
ing that circular would know that the
books named in Il were immoral, that
it is unlawful to traffic in obscene or
immoral literature and the recipient
woul be as guilty as the sender"

VANITY AND pRErENsE.

In an the ways and walks of life,
Much vain pretense we find;
Men try 70 seem what they are not,
And think the world is blind
To their true merits, wealth and
worth
And yet this foolish sham
Deceives but him who would deceive
And makes him less a man
Beneath a thin veneer Of sham,
Much ignorance doth hide,
And borrowed cash doth oft produce
unwarrantable pride
Some think by fashions gllded garb
The truth may be obscured.
The patronage OF rich and wise
BE thus to them assured
To satisfy this outward show
Men live beyond their means,
Much happiness they sacrifice
For their ambitious dreams:
They make themselves the slaves az
pride
For what the world may think.
And many thousands NAV be found
Who stand on ruins brink
The custom grows to run in debt,
Where incomes are too small.
Get credit when and how you can.
Rob Peter TO pay Paul:
And It is no uncommon phase
OF this peculiar plan
To see a hundred-dollar suit
Worn by a dollar man.
Deception for a time may serve
To win esteem and friends,
And crafty the one whose rank
On such support depends:
But soon or late deceitful arts
No more their purpose serve.
The simple truth shines through tn,
mask
Quite easy to observe
Much better then 'twould be for meI
To seem just what they are:
Let only their true selves be known.
Make truth their guiding star:
And as new talents they acquire
Or added wealth obtain.
The world will not be slow to give
Due credit for this gain.

FINE WHITE SHIRTS.
high Prices Paid by Some Men for
This Item Of Their Apparel.


This Item Of Their Apparel.
A man can buy a good, well.made,
well-fitting white shirt for a dollar;
he can buy other white shirts for less
than that; and then he can get shirts
made to order at any price he wishes
TO pay. up to $40 each. He can find
Establishments were the lowest-priced
white shirts kept in stock sells at
$3.50, and where the lowest-priced
shirt made to order is sold at 81, or
S48 a dozen. A shirt of this sort will
have a body of the best domestic cot
ton, and plain linen bosom; It would
be simply fine, handsome, well-made
shirt; and probably more than so per
cent. Of the shirts sold here would be
of that price and description; the 9TH
er so per cent or so being shirts finer
siiil. At $3.50. for example, or at Sc
with the collar attached, could be had
a shirt with a body Of French muslin,
and a bosom Of pique of very fine
quality. The patterns of the pique are
likely to be rather simple than other
wise IN design. and the shirts are
made sometimes with the lines of
pique running vertically in the bosom,
and sometimes with the line horizon
is, the pique-bosOmed shirt might
nevertheless seem to some men rath-
er fanciful; but there can be no doubt
that many of the fine shirts of this
character are thoroughly artistic pro
auctions. A shirt of this kind, as it
comes from the hands of the expert
ironer, with the delicate pique pattern
showing family in absolutely faultless
lines upon a bosom so irOned that it
has a slight convexity of outline and
the perfect uniformity of shield, is
certainly an object that is agreeable
10 the eye.
Piaue-bosomed shirts are worn
chiefly by young men. OF all the high
er-priced dress shirts, such as are here
referred to, taken together, perhaps
25 per cent would be made with pique
bosoms; rs per cent. being made with
plain linen bosoms.
A shirt that sells at 80, or Sos a
dozen, is made with body of figured
linen batiste, with an extra fine linen
bosom; the collar and cuffs are at
tached. All the materials of which
this shirt is made are fine and sheer
and beautiful and very light; a com
plete shirt of this sort.
All fine dress shirts, such as are
here mentioned, are invariably made
with cuffs attached and it was not
necessary that they should be; and
yet il was said that if the wearer de-
sired TO attain the acme of perfection
in his apparel, and to be able to with
stand any scrutiny. he had his shirts
made with collars as well as cuffs at
tached.
Men that wear shirts of these sorts
buy four or five dozen of them year.
or perhaps more; they don't wear
them after signs of wear appear and
the shirts go often to the laundry,
which helps to wear them out. Il IS
common thing for men ordering
such shirts TO order, say, two dozen at
q time, having one dozen perhaps
sent 70 their country house and one
dozen sent to their city house; and

are not confined to customers from
