Prolixity of Lawyers

were discussing the question of style
when P+ theSeves men 6ave occasion to
one of the group, a lawyer, remarked
Prom the standpoint of clearness and
explicitness of diction, l safely say that
we lawyers are unexcelled. For instance if
my friend the doctor here was to give anyone
an orange, he would no doubt simply say L
give you the orange; but should the transac-
ton be intrusted to one of our legal lights to
put in writing he would adopt something like
this form:
4 hereby give, grant and convey to you
all my interest right, title and advantage of
and in said orange, together with its rind,
skin, juice, pulp and pips and all rights and
advantages therein, with full power to bite,

Japanese Couture

TN Japan girl at the age of nine wears her hair
tied in a red scarf bound around the back
of her head; the forehead is left bare, with
the exception of a couple of locks, one on each
side. When she is of manageable age she
combs her hair forward and makes it up into
the shape of a fan or butterfly. and at the
same time decorates it with silver cord and
balls of varied colors. This means everything,
and is fully understood by the young men of
Japan A widow who wishes for a second
husband puts tortoise-shell pin horizontally
at the back of her head and twists her hair
round it, while an inconsolable widow cuts her
hair short and goes in for no adornments of
any sort. These last are rare By these simple
means much confusion is avoided. glance
around ballroom suffices to tell the age and
status of every woman in the place.

The Senatorial Snuf-box

ON the ledge of the wainscot in the Senate
Chamber in the Capitol at Washington,
there has stood since time immemorial a small
snuff-box. 1t is a simple and unpretending
affair, made of wood or papier-rnache and
ename1ed brown. If you turn back the lid,
you find the box halfful of good old rappee.
1t is fastened to the ledge and cannot be taken
away; but anyone who cares for pinch may
step up to it and help himself.

THIS is a long powerful
= achromatic Telescope for
terrestrial and celestial use.
This telescope is provided
with an adjustable eye piece,
fitted with a solar dark glass
tense for sun observations.
With this wonderful solar
eye piece you look the sun
squarely in the face on the
brightest and hottest day and
study its face as you do the
moon at night. Every stu
dent, male or female, needs
this telescope to study the
sun in ecIipseS, also the mys-
ferrous recurrent sun spots.
Never before was a telescope
with such an eye piece at
tachment sold for less than
$500 or $1,000. This eye
piece alone is worth more
than we charge for the entire
telescope to all who wish to
behold the sun in its tranquil
beauty. Remove the solar
eye piece tense and you have
good practical telescope for
land observations, etc.
POSITIVELY such a good tel.
escope was never sold for thi:
price before. These telescope.
are made by one of the largest
manufacturers of Europe
measure closed, u in, ano
open over 31a feet in 3 sections
They are brass bound, brass
safety cap on each end to ex-
clude dust, etc., with powerful
lenses, scientifically ground
and adjusted. Guaranteed by
the maker. Heretofore tele.
scopes of this size have beer
sold for from SIS to IS. Every
sojourner in the country or al
seaside resorts should certainly
secure one of these instru-
ments; and no farmer shoIld
be without one. Objects miles
away are brought to view with
an astonishing clearness.

Naked Truth

FRANCIS WILSON tells of an encounter
of wits that took place between the late
Eugene Field and New-York woman, who
met at the house of a mutual friend in Gotham.
1t was at dinner, and the woman was in
evening dress, which was rather decollete
After a skirmish between the two relative to
the respective merits of a well-known author,
it would seem that Field came off second best
"Ah, Mr.. Field" exclaimed the woman ex-
ultantly, "you must admit that you are fairly
beaten at your own camel"
Field bowed politely and with a smile
promptly rejoined AT any rate, Miss
Blank, / have one consolation. You can't
laugh at me in your sleeve!'
