tes Parislt-nnei. From Theodore D« Bativille. The Parisieitnes translate general * ideas into modes! For instance, they expressed the serene and family element of Lords Philippe’s botirtreoisIsaio.hy flat hjmikaux of a regularity and anujothnesa which ebatmad too eye, while they twisted the hair at the hack into a simple figure 8. This fashion of dressing the hair may be seen in the lithographs of Devena and in Barec’a statuettes. Under the empire, on the contrary, when the expansion of gold and the fever of financial combination had produced a dazzling and fantastic kind of life, the Pariaiennes again put themselves in unison with tiiis fanatical renaissance by adopting in dressing their hair curls, masses of riugietsand pleats mote complicated and thick than those which crowned the brows of Dianas of the sixteenth century, and fabulous chignons which, on the whole, had a grand appearance. But as it is in their nature to be essentially misleading aud discouraging lor foreign women, as soon as by their example they had induced the women of America, and of the more distant Australia, to hang heavy false chignons on the back of their heads, insomuch that all over the world the bald women thought decidedly that they were sale for the rest of their lives, the Parisieimes begun to brush up their hair behind so as to show tiie roots. Aud what did these women do who had uoue? They had some. Thev were obliged! To take from antiquity, from the East, trom all times that which constitutes their peculiar elegance, and, without destroying it, to reduce it to the Parisian formula, such is the conaiant occupation of these great artists. Os what do you suppose Mile li icliei used to be thinking, when, singing before the public the finest uiuoic in the world, I meau the poetry of Corneille and of itaciue, resuscitated llerinioue, Pliedre, Camille, Chimene, Koxane, Mouiine? Os translating the impression which these ideal figures raise in the poet’s mind? Ves,doubtless, but aecessorily, for she occupied herself more in ransacking them, in taking from each one of them Uiat which constituted her special grace. Aud if she was Greek. Homan, Spanish, or Oriental in playing these great roles she was much more so as a Pat isicnite walking along tlio boulevard, for tho most consummate typeot supreme beauty which it has ever been the privilege of auy one to see, was Jilie. Kachei wearing an Indian sliawl as she wore the purple of the gods.— She realized then a masterpiece of harmony and proportion equal to that of Pojy Hilda. i speak of her purposely, for she, more than all the rest of the Paris!enues put together, was a statuary modei*<r her own flesh and the lutes of her visage. A thin face wifit.a largo swelling forehead, eyes buried in shade, a retreating mouth, a large pointed chin, a bony body and lean arms, that is what site had received from nature; by force of genius, will, passion, love and gold spent on beautiful things, whicli is (lie great alchemy, out of all this attractive ugliness of a little street guitarist, alio had made that Kacliel whom we have known. VFhat age has a Parisicitne? That is a grave question to which a definite answer must he given at once. The first magic, the first prodigy, the first duty of a Parisieuue is to suppress age and all which resembles it. For nature, thinking above all of the reproduction of the race gave to woman only five years ol' beauty aud absolute youth; but the Parisieuue lias created for herself a youth, which is the result of will, and which lasts thirty years, for it requires that time at ieast to arrive at the completion ol the charming and astonishing being she is. And 1 insist upon it that Utis magic does not consist in painting and hiding the wrinkles, in replacing the hair that has fallen, the flesh that has withered, but in having uolliiug of that at alk Successful Poultry liaising. In raising poultry orstock, it should be the aim of every one to keep it healthy and itnprovo it. You can do it very easily by adopting some systematic rules. These may be summed up In brief as follows: 1. Construct your house good and warm, so as to avoid damp floors, and afford a flood of sunlight, Sunshine is better than medicine. 2. Provide a dusting aud scratching place whore you can bury wheat aud corn and thus induce the fowls to take needful exercise. 8. Provide yourself with some good healthy chickens, none to be over three or four years old, giving one cock to every twelve hens. 4. Give plenty of fresh air at all times of the year, especially in summer. 6. Give plenty of fresh water dally, and never allow the fowls to go thirsty. C. Feed them systematically, two or three times a day, aud scatter the food so they can't eat too fast or withon t proper exercise. Do not feed more than they will eat up clean, or they will get tired of that kind of feed. 7. Give them a variety both of dry and cooked food; a mixture of cooked nteal and vegetable* is an excellent thing for their morning meal. 8. Give soft feed in the morning, and the whole grain at night,except a little wheat or cracked corn placed in the scratching place to give them exercise during the day. 9. Abovo all things keep the hen house clean aud well vm ilaled. case. 11. Use carbolic powder in the dustlag bins occasionally to destroy lice. 12. Wash your roosts and bottom ol laying nests with whitewash once a week in summer, aud once u mouth in winter. 13. Let the old and young have as large a range as possible—the larger the better. 14. Don’t breed too many kinds of fowls at the saute time, unless you are going into the business. Three or four wilt give your hands full. 15. Introduce new blood into your stock every year or so, by either buying a cockerel or sittings of eggs from some reliable breeder. 16. In buying birds or eggs, go to some reliable breeder who has his reputation at stake. You may have to pay a little more for birds, hut you can depend on what you get. Gulfs are not cheap at any price. 17. Save the best birds for next year’s breeding, aud send the otiiers to market, iu shipping fancy poultry to market send it dressed. A STOSE FRO* THE SKY Fall of a Meteor at Red-Heat Upon the Bosom of Muskegon Lake. Vessels arriving in Chicago yesterday report a most remarkable occurrence at Muskegon on Friday night. At midnight there was an awful shock heard throughout the whole city, accompanied by a height, sulphuric light, which illuminated the entire surroundings. Crews of craft in the harbor sprang from their bunks and citizens, terribly alarmed, rushed to tbe windows. Many suppose.! that a severe thunderstorm had burnt up on them; others thought that the great boilers of some of the numerous

■Btssssssassmssjasmiaa"* immense mills had exploded, and not a few attributed the deafening report to the first crash of “the wreck of matter and the crush of worlds.” When the people ventured out shortly afterward, however, they beheld one of the most calm and beautiful moonlight nights ever witnessed. Tbe only < xplanation of slie mystery is that a great aerolite fell into Muskegon The following is from the Muskegon Chronicle, received in Chicago last night: "The great mystery is solved by tbe statement of persons employed in and about the mills in the lower part of the city. They say that a large ball of tire fell from Muskegon Lake, seemingly striking its surface three or four hundred feet from the shore. James Fisk felt the shock perceptibly , and Mr Archibald Lee was ‘shaken ' up’b.v it; both of these parties were ’ on Western aveuue at the time. J Messrs. Frank Johnson, Levi Beards- I ley, Charles C. Moulton and Fred < Miller, all of w hom lodge on Western aveuue, state that the buildings in s which they have rooms were shaken i bv the explosion. Mr. Hugh Leon i ard, the druggist of'lower town,’ who t had just retired to his room on West- t ern aveuue, states as follows: ‘I saw t the glare, and it seemed as though ( the entire light was concentrated in t my room. At first it appeared as - though my window curtains were ‘ wrapt in fi lines.’ Where the aerolite j struck there was great commotion, ‘as • though a ton of solid substance had ■ fallen into it from a great height.’ It . is currently believed that a great mel teoric stone fell, aud it may be wel ‘ for steamers and sailing vessels to be ’ guarded for the present while passing the point where the stone is supposed 1 to have struck.” 1 THE M.ti.kl.l ‘ Clit.-a c« Flour—Quid attil tine., mged.

ssrereawsss o^lol Robust Imaginations. Cbrscn City (Nov.) Appeal. Yesterday afternoon, when the lawyers in Justice Cary’s Court were waiting for the verdict in a petty larceny case, Attorney Soderberg related an incident of his earlv childhood in Minnesota, illustrative "of tho peculiar customs in that Stato: “I knew an old farmer there who owned ten acres of timber land where millions of pigeons came each year to roost. They devastated the wheat fields, and tho old coon used to catch tlic birds in nests aud thrash them out on the barn floor. Each bird had three ounces of wheat in his crop, ano it was a bad year for ‘Old Thompson when he couldn't ship 1,000 bushels of wheat to market at $2.60 a bushel, and it ranked A No. 1 when it reached the Chicago elevator. If there had boeu a few million more of pigeons he would have come pretty near getting • corner on the Minnesota wheat crop. ’ ••I know a planter down in Alabama, said Kittrell, “who was fully as sharp * as that He trained an alligator to work up and down the river and catch the little picaninnies that played along the bank. The alligator would take the little kids in his jaws and switn back to tho plantation. It was a dull day that he couldn’t corral three or four. The planter raised ’em carefully, and when they got big sold ’em iu New Orleans at prices ranging from $3,000 to SIO,OOO apiece. He was rolling in | wealth when Lincoln's Emancipation j Proclamation was issued, and after I that the alligator never did any more work. The man is now barely keeping . body and soul together in Washington, ’ clerking in one of the Government Bureaus at SB,OOO a year.” Judge Cary evinced the greatest interest in these weird tales, and edged up to the group. "These are curious yarns, gentlemen, * but I believe them all. I had a dog once, back in Nebraska that X kept to herd lumber.” "Beg pardon. Judge; did you say the - dog herded lumber?” "Yes, sir, cottonwood boards. Wo always keep a dog there to bring tbe lumber in at night” Everybody now paid the closest attention', as’ they knew the boss was at work. “It was this way. Cottonwood boards warp like thunder in the sun. A board ‘ would begin to hump its back up about 9 iu the morning, and in half an hour it would turn over. By 11 it would warp the other way with tiio heat, and make another flop. Each time it moved it turned a couple of feet, always following the sun towards the west, y The first summer I lived in Brownsville over 10,000 feet of lumber skipped out to the hills the day before I had advertised a house raisin’. I went to the county-seat to attend a lawsuit, and when I got back there wasn’t a stick of timber left. It had strayed away imo tho uplands. An ordinary board would I climb a two-mile hill during a hot week, and when it struck the timber it would keep wormin’ in and out among the trees like a gartcr-suake. Every farmer iu the State had to keep shepherd dogs to follow his lumber around the country, keep it together, and show I where it was in the morning. We didn’t need any flumes there for lumber. W« sawed it east of the pla e wo wanted to use it, and let it warp itself to its destination, with men and dogs to head it I off at the right time. We never lost a stick. Well, here comes the jury,” eon- 1 tinued the Judge. "The witnesses lied, ■o 1 guess they will disagree.” The citizens o’ West Lafayet*. Ohio, are worked up over tbe mysterious ami sudden disappearance of Mr. Jas. McCammon. He was to have been married to Miss Phillips, the charming daughter of a well known citizen residing near that place. Major Joseph L. Celand, a proprietor of the Sturtevant house, New York, is dead.

B J Kesdall & Co., Gents: —I am so overjoyed in view of the result of an application of your Randall's Spavin Cure that I feel that I ought for Hemantte s sake publish it to the world. About thirty-five years ago, while riding a youug ugly horse 1 was injured in one of my testicles, and from that time to three weeks ago a slow but constant enlargement has been the result, giving me a great amount of trouble, almost entirely preventing me from horseback riding, which was my usual way of traveling. I saw a notice of your Kendall Spavin Cure, never once thought of it except for horses but after receiving the medicine and reading over what it was good for, teehng terribly exereised about my difficulty for I had consulted many physicians and none gave me any specific but when it could be endured no longer to remove it with the knife I applied your Kendall's Spavin Cure as an experiment, and it was so painful in its application that I concluded not is repeat it and thought no more about it until near a week and lo and behold, one hair of the size was gone.Jwith joy 1 could hardly believe it I immediately applied it again, and have made in all about one half dozen applications, running it over a space of two weeks, and the terrible enlargement is almost entirely gone, in view of which I cannot express my feelings of delight.

According to the Conrrier ties Etas Unis the story circulated by most of the morning newspapers to the effect that , Pierre Joubert, now at the head of the j . military forces of the Boers, is an Amer- I 1 ican by birth, was simply a romance ! ■ invented by a Pittsburgh correspondent. He was of a family of French Huguenots who at one time, driven from the country by the edict of Nantes, sought refuge in Holland. One of his • ancestors, P—'rre Joubert, emigrated, I according to documentary evidence, to the Cajte at Good Hope in 1687 from [ Provence, in France, and the family has r been known there ever since.
