FINE ART OF SERVING WINE.

The child's Bare Leas.

Harpers Bazar, which is solving every problem of life for American women these days. takes up among other vital questions this month that of the bare legs of the fashionable children. The Bazar has persuaded Marianna Wheeler author of The Baby, to devote her attention to this question, and Miss Wheeler does so in these words:
 Ut cannot be denied that shapely, chub- by legs look most cunning and inviting in their pink baroness when only half stockings or socks are worn, and 1t is usually the mother who will not allow her baby to touch the floor for fear it will take cold. who Is utterly oblivious Of q Possibility of harm happening from ex- posing those little uncovered legs on cold spring and autumn days. There is al ways danger and menace to chid's health in not properly protecting the legs and feet. It is the cause of many colds and sore throats Cold extremities also seriously interfere with good digestion and SOW seeds of rheumatism. In warm weather the probability is that no harm will result from the wearing of socks, but think of the annoyance to the child in consequence of this pretty fashion. Those pretty legs make a dainty feast for mosquitoes and other insects. Do you think the child enjoys this? True, mos quito can bite through stockings, but ' do not think he would bite nearly so often were he not tempted by the sight of the bare and tender flesh. Then there are scratches and bruises from bushes, brers. etc.: these would be far less # the legs were properly protected by stock ings."

STOCK MARKET
 Is DEMORALIzED Flood of Sales Breaks Prices in
 Leading Stocks VERY LITTLE RECOVERY
Announcement of Attorney General Bonaparte's Intention to Prosecute Railways and Corporations
 Takes Away Confidence.

New York, August 10-There was a demoralzed tone in the short session of the stock market today as a wind up to a week of disorder. In the last five min utes of the session the bears bought with some recklessness to reap the rich profits accruing from the extensive fall in prices With that exception there was no eff fective buying at any time and prices crumbled almost away uninterrupted by a flood of sales in all var.ies of sizes.
 The Pacific railroad stocks and coppers showed the most acute weakness
 Union Pacific fell 55s. representing the maximum decline in the active list. but the Hill stocks and Southern Pacific. Reading and American Smelling were af- fected in only less degre, with losses running to points or over.
 The whole market turned on the govern mental and public attitude towards cor porations. The statements published this morning as coming from Attorney Gen eral Bonaparte after his interview yester- day with the President were the central factors in the new anxiety professed by holders of securities. The notice thus served on the corporations that they might look for the pursuit of prosecu- tion to the possible limit for all discover able offenses under the law caused some thing like consternation in the speculative sentiment in the market.

They are the supreme luxury, the un- failing interest of life. And they are all this because men want them to be.
 At the outset of his career a man aims at money-at the climax he spends it-for a woman. The man who, having achieved success, sits back and tells you he has no interest in women will usually be found, un- less quite abnormal, to be devoted to his aged mother, an old-maid sister or an aunt. Moreover, he is the hero of enc of these, which is all a man can i.e to any woman.
 The older he is the younger the woman qui Hui impose son illusion. For the younger the woman the more aboriginal her artifice-should one say art, rather? Nothing is so ven turous at youth, for all its calculating quality Judgment has not set in; and youth plays large chances on nar- TOW margins, because youth has life time before. What can be more se- ductive to the calm eye of age? "He is easily deceived by women," says Shaw's Caesar to Cleopatra, with a mournful air. Their eyes dazzle him and he sees them not as they are, but as he wishes them to appear to him" The only difference between Shaw's Caesar and the man in the drawing room is that Shaw makes Caesar self-conscious in the contact It is fair to suspect that when Caesar was really dazzled by a pair of eyes, he hardly had time for psychological ausculation, though he may have thought it all over from the beginning when he got home
 Seeing them not as they are, but as he wishes them to appear to him, is the whole secret of the mystery which has lain about woman since the first comedy long, long ago in a well-watered and fruitful garden. Sen tentious sayings have been uttered about the mysteriousness of woman from that fateful day. Unquestion- ably, Adam himself tried to explain 10 the birds in the trees his lapse from the business of seeing and ad- mirlng, by an apostrophe to the strange nature of that other being on the premises Adam, therefore, was the first poet and none has sur passed him in the tradition he built up around his heroine.
 To be sure, the tradition has taken on the tarnishment of time. We pro- fess to be cynical; and a sentimental ist has said, There's no mystery about a woman a third-class detective can't penetrate" If he were not a sentimentalist, he could not have said
 Being a wit as well as sentiment alist, he added in the next breath, "Unless she happened to be the wo- man in whom the detective believed v
