The Antiquity Of the Ballet.

Strictly defined, the ballet is properly
q theatrical exhibition of the art of
dancing in its highest perfection, COM
plying generally with the rules of the
drama as to its composition and form.
1t was in existence in Italy as far back
as A. D. 1900, the court of Turin In that
day making especial use of it and the
royal family and mobiles taking part in
1t. The ballet was first introduced in
France in the reign of Louis Kill, and
both that monarch and Louis XIV. oc-
casionally took part in its dances.
In its earliest presentation the ballet
appeared dexterously in combination
with the other theatrical acts and Is
said to have completed the chaotic
medley exhibited in these spectacles,
which were at once NEUROLOGICAL, allie
gorical, fantastic, warlike and pasto-
raj" The reader will not be slow to
observe that its development in the
present day has not apparently lost
sight Of these conditions.
About the year 100 women made
their first appearance in the ballet,
which up to that time had been per-
formed exclusively by men, as was the
case also with plays and operas, but no
woman ballet dancer Of any note ap-
peared until 1870.

Comets and Women.

The analogy between comets and wo-
men once formed the subject of the
following peroration from an evening
contemporary: Comets doubtless an
swer some wise and good purpose in
the creation; so do women. Comets
are incomprehensible, beautiful and &c
centric; so are women. Comets shine
with peculiar splendor, but at night are
most brilliant; SO are women. Comets
are enveloped with a lucid nebula
through which their forms are visible;
so are those of women in their light
and elegant attire. Comets confound
the most learned when they attempt
to ascertain their nature; so do women.
Comets equally excite the admiration
Of the philosopher and of the clod of
the valley; so do women. Comets and
women are therefore closely analogous,
but, the nature Of each being inscruta-
bic, all that remains for us to do is to
view with admiration the one and to
love the other to Observation-Disclosures

MeneleL and the Missionary.

Swedish missionary to obtain foot
hold in Abyssinia. No sooner had he

why he had left his home in Scandi-

The missionary promptly replied that
he had come to convert the Abyssinian
Jews. Are there no Jews in your
country?" asked Menelek. The mis-
sionary admitted that there were a
few. "And in all the countries that
you have passed through did you find
no Jews or heathens" the king con-
tinued. "Jews and heathens," the mis-
sionary admitted, "are plentiful"
'Then," said Menelek. carry this man
beyond the frontier and let him not
return until he has converted all the
Jews and heather which lie between
his country and mine."

A Timely Suggestion.

This is the season of the year when
the prudent and careful housewife re-
plenishes her supply of Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. 1t is certain to be
needed before the winter is over, and
results are much more prompt and
satisfactory when it is kept at hand
and given as soon as the cold is con-
tracted and before it has become
settled in the system. In almost every
instance a severe cold may be warded
off by taking this remedy freely as
soon as the first indication of cold
appears. There is no danger in Civ
ing it to children as it contains no
harmful substance. 1t is pleasant to
take-both adults and children like
it. Buy it and you will get the best.
1t always cures. For sale by A. Fl.

How To Prevent croup.

1t will be good news to the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign OF
GROUP is hoarseness. A day or two
before the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. Give Cham
berlain's Congh Remedy freely as
soon as the child becomes hoarse, or
even after the rough cough appears,
and it will dispel all symptoms OF
Group. In this way all danger and
anxiety may be avoided. This rem
edy is used by many thousands of
mothers and has never been known to
fail. 1t is, in fact, the only remedy
that can always be depended upon
and that is pleasant and safe to take.
