And what a toilet! The long, coarse
black tresses are washed, combed and
creased till the head shines like knob

are rouged a fine pink. The throat,
neck and bosom are powdered. but at
the nape Of the neck there are left three

her lips with cherry paste. adding
gilt diamond to the center Of the pout-

garments, and she ties her obi. or great

she doesn't wear stockings-are very
white and pure. and her clogs are
lacquered till they shine like silk

Now she is ready to set out. She
fills her silk tobacco pouch, thrusts her

Price of His Treason.

Benedict Arnold died in London June
IA, 1901. His life after his treason was
a most unhappy one. He was avoided
by men of honor and on many occa-
sions deliberately insulted. He received
considerable sum Of money from the
British government and made several
unsuccessful attempts to engage in bust
ness in British America and the West
Indies and finally returned to London,
where he died in obscurity. His second
son, born in 1880, entered the British
army in 179S, served with credit in
many parts of the world and three
years before his death in 1854 was
made lieutenant general.-Household

The Victorian English.

The England which spoke the Ian.

eighteen-sixties was before all things
a world of the country. The sights and
sounds Of nature played far greater
part in the lives of the mass of the
people than they do to-day. This is re-
fiected, for instance, in the way in
which birds and animals were spoken
of and the names given them. l have
myself once or twice heard old people
in the country speak of the hen as
