THE CAUTIOUS LOVER.

A contemporary states that for
man to marry on a small income h
must marry wife who is a "stoc
size" at the dressmaker's.
Mary, love your rosy lips,
Your ankle trim and neat,
love your dainty foot that trips
Adown the village street.
Your hair | worship, and admire
The color of your eyes.
Owe likened them to liquid FREE
But are you a stock size?
AT cooking and the kindred arts
You yield to none the palm:
Full oft have | consumed your tarts
And never felt qualm.
And as housewife. dear. of late
I've learnt your sterling worth;
But is your height proportionate,
My Mary, to your girth?
Love is indeed, as poets say.
Of happiness the fount,
But love, alas, omits to pay
The dessmaker's account.
Unwedded, then. we twain will die
CFor Fate must be obeyed)
Unless, my Mary. you can buy
Your dresses ready made.

THE LARGEST LIFT BRIDGE.
Chicago's New Structure is Larger
Than London's Tower Bridge.

Chicago's New Structure is Larger
Than London's Tower Bridge.
In few days the largest rolling lift
bridge in the world will be opened in
Chicago. The structure spans the
Chicago river just south of Taylor
street, and is remarkable from an en-
gineering standpoint for it's great
length. The river at the point where
it is spanned is 100 feet in width, and
the bridge crosses it at an angle or
thirty-six and a half degrees, making
it 275 feet long between the points of
bearing and $50 feet long from end to
end.
The entire structure, with the ex
ception Of the cast iron counter

connection with'the building of the
bridge is that the Golfer dams cost less
and afforded less trouble than those
used in building the bridge over the
canal.
$45O,OOO, which was paid by the Drain-
age board alone.
At first it was deemed impossible to
span the river at this point. but, de-
spite the opinion of several engineer
ing experts, Engineer Wisner. of the
board, was convinced that it would be
done Mr.. Randolph entered into the
consultation with the Scherzer Bridge
company, and the Scherzer patent
rolling lift bridge, and the result Is
| the present structure.
Engineers in the city are unanimous
| in declaring this bridge one of the
greatest feats from an engineering
standpoint in the country. The bear
ings of the bridge, instead of being
| pini0ned like those of an ordinary
! bascule bridge, are free and move
backward and forward on a steel table.
The ordinary bascule bridge is on
the principles of a lever Of the first
order, while this bridge works on the
principles of lever of the second order
On the whole the movement Of the
bridge is much more free than that of
an ordinarylift bridge, and causes less
or strain.
Each moving leaf contains about
two million pounds, and aside from
having the largest span of any NOV
able bridge ever built, the structure is
especially noticeable in that it is built
for the heaviest railroad service.
carrying double tracks. The bridge
is designed for a load of 10000 pounds
per lineal foot of bridge, in addition
to a concentrated load Of 100000
pounds at any given point on the floor
of the structure. this giving ii carry

Pompadour Is Doomed.

The doom of the pompadour has
been spoken, and while women will
part with it with regret men will be
glad of it's passing. for the masculine
critics and artists have never been
enthusiastic in their admiration of the
puffed-out auTeole of hair that has
been such a popular fashion for more
than two years. In nine cases Out of
ten the style has been exaggerated
and has necessitated the wearing of a
pad of curled hair or rat" or false
pompadour beneath the hair to give It
the required fullness of appearance.

joices greatly in the dying out of the
nompadour emphasizes its obsequies
by proudly displaying upon her dress
ing table photographs of Mrs. Howard
Gould, Maxine Elliot and Isabel Has.
kins, three American women who were
among the first to depart from the
pronounced pompadour styles and
have worn their hair drawn back
plainly from the face and coiled low at
the back of the head.
Il am proud to have the photo
graphs of three women brave enough
to depart from the horribly overdone
pompadour," she said. ITO them can
be given a large share of the credit
for banishing one of the ugliest
fashions that even disfgured the
American woman. II takes courage to
depart from set style of this sort,
and these women did it before any
edict had come from Paris. We are
more slavish in our following of the
styles in hairdressing than in gowns,
for the face is more directly affected.
But individuality is getting to be a
fad in this country, aud 1t is likely
that American women viii originate
their own fashions before very long.

A new method OF preserving eggs is
tried. Fresh-laid eggs are carefully
opened and the contents of the she'll
put into glass jars which are closed
after the air has been drawn out.
The jars are put into cold-storage and
sold to the bakers in large cities, who
are glad to be rid Of the shells; at the
same time this enables both seller AMI
buyers to tell at glance whether
the package is good or not. Special
care must be given to their packing,
for one bad or inferior egg will
quickly spoil the whole Jar. This,

Felt will be much used for the
smartest kinds of hats. nevertheless
velvet-coversd hats take the lead,
and something also will be done with
fancy materials, states the August
Millinery Trade Review. In this line
some rather curious novelties have
been achieved such as the imprison-
ing of angora hair between two layers
of net, producing what appears to be
at slight distance a sort of notified
felt. Truss of angora are also laid
between layer of felt and net; in
both cases the presence of the net is
hardly to be detected save by the
touch
Whether these fancy materials will
be used 10 any great extent is a ques-
ton, since the effect obtained hardly
repays the price of production. For
building up smart hats felt is gen
orally required in the form of
pateauX. These are provided in thin,
smooth felt, in mixed rough and long
haired felts, more often in grays,
beiges and Whitley browns, than in
positive colors. Sometimes a single
plateau will be used, the center drawn
up into the form of loose, full crown,
the brim shaped in horizontal fold in
front, and fluted down into the nape of
the neck behind Or several plateaux
will be placed one over the other.
When this IS the case choice is gen
orally given to smooth felt each
plateau bordered with stitched strap
or hem.
Velvet for covering hats is mostly
chosen in deep, rich tints, among
which greens predominant largely.
Black velvet hats promise also to be
very much worn So far it would
seem as if combinations of two
positive colors and several shades OF
gray, beige, light brown, or cream,
white or black are very much favored.
Black hats, however, will generally
be trimmed with the same. com bina-

A MATRIMONIAL PSALM.

Tell me not in idle jingle
Marriage is an empty dream,
For the girl is dead that's single,
And things are not as they seem.
Life is real. life is earnest.
Single blessedness a fib.
Man thou art; to man returneth,"
Hath not been spoken of the rib.
Not enjoyment and not sorrow
Is Our destined end or way,
But to act that each tomorrow
Finds us nearer marriage day.
Life is short and youth is fleeting,
And our hearts, though light and
gay,
Still like pleasant dreams are beating
Wedding marches all the way.
In the worlds broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of life.
Be not like dumb driven cattle,
Be heorine and wife.
Lives of married folks remind us
We can make our lives as well,
And, departing, leave behind us
Such examples as shall ''tell";
Such examples that another.
Wasting life in idle sport,
A forlorn unmarried brother,
Seeing, shall take heart and court.
Let us then be up and doing.
With heart on triumph set,
Still contriving, still pursuing,
And each one husband get.
