ployed a negro boy to help him in his
office. The boy was believed to be an

tect him from persecution and confute
a foolish superstition Manutius made a
public exhibition of the boy and an
nounced that any one who doubted him
to be flesh and blood might come for
ward and pinch him to make sure. The
mistaken impression was removed, but
before this time the name printers
devil had been attached to the boy and
was thenceforth applied generally to
the boyish assistants in printing OF

VENETIAN WOMEN.
They HaveNo Need to Bother Their
Heads About Fashions.


Heads About Fashions.
The women of Venice are absolutely
free from the rule which Dame Fash
ion exercises over their sisters else
where They care nothing for modes.
With them the length of the skirt re-
mains always the same, neither short
nor long, and they always wear
plainly made dark dresses. black stock
ings and the heelless slippers of the
east Hats are unknown.
The universal outdoor wrap for all
ages and all sizes is the black shawl,
with a deep silken fringe. 1t is folded
with short point above and long
one below, and sometimes it envelopes
the figure from head to foot. 1t is new
er fastened at the throat, and when it
slips off it is gathered up with one
outstretched arm, which makes the
spectator think of a big bird stretch
ing it's wing.
In their attire the women of Venice
are independent, only wearing local
clothing. but, with feminine ineonsist-
ency, they are thoroughly up to date
in the matter of hairdressing, the style
of their coiffures changing from time
to time, according to the vogue of the
moment in London and Paris.

thud. The presiding elder rushed up
stairs, calling: "What is the matter,
bishop? Is there anything l can do for
you?" Nothing is the natter an

leone from earth and its sorrows,'
where JOY and pleasures never end,
Where light is given for darkness,
There is our mother, sister, frieno.
Her kind hands were always ready,
The labor Of others to share;
Her work is done, on her peaceful breast
They are quietly resting there.
She walks the golden streets above,
Her trials and sufferIngs DER;

When she entered the open door.
She left ~ home for mansion,
Just 'beyoI the evergreen shore,
There she awaits US one and all,
Where fearful partings are no more.''
