RENEWING THEIR YOUTH.

▲ Strange Story from a Nebraska Tillage. From the WorU-BertUd, OmoAa. Beh. A World-Herald reporter was attracted ky the evidence of renewed activity of some of the old inhabitants of Bruce, near Omaha, and inquired the cause. Mr. Andrew Finkenkeler, a member of Co. B of the Firat lowa Volunteers during the war, made the following explanation so far as he himself is concerned. “In July, 1866, while my company was on the march to Austin, Texas, I was attacked with rheumatism of the worst kind in one leg. I was also sunstruck and remained unconscions for several hours. Ever since I have been unable to stand the heat,of the sun, and have been compelled to give up work. There was in my head a bearing down feeling which increased until it seemed my head would burst, My ears rang, and palpatation of heart set in, so that the slightest .noise would set my heart thumping. Several times it has rendered me unconscious seven to ten hours at a time. In addition to this the rheumatism extended. up my side until it drew my head down on my shoulder. I lost my strength and flesh and was totally unfit for work. “For twenty-eight years I have consult, gd .physicians and taken their prescriptions without deriving any material benefit My ailments increased in intensity until I Vas'assured that there was no hope for me. During last year I went into the butcher business, but the dampness from the ice used increased my rheumatic pains so that I was not only compelled to quit the business, but was confined to my bed for nearly six months. “In November last I read in the WorldHerald a case of a man who had been entirely cured from the same ailments by the use of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People. On Nov. 28, I purchased a box. In a week I was astonished to know that I felt better than I had for six months past, and before I had used half a box. The ringing in my ears began to lessen, and finally left me. The pain from the rheumatism gradually left me, so that within one week from the time I took my first pill I was able to sit up in bed. On Jan. Ist, I was able to go out and walk a little. The palpitation of my heart entirely ceased. On Feb. 9, I was so thoroughly cured that I accepted a position as night-watchman in the Forest Lawn Cemetery, remaining out of doors from 6 p. m. until 6 a. m. I have gained in weight from 144 lbs, which I weighed in November last, to 172 lbs. For nerve building and for enriching the blood Pink Pills are unexcelled. They may be had of druggists or direct from the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y., for 50 cents per box, or six boxes for $2.50.

The End of Poniatowski.

The Polish Bayard won his baton on the field of Leipsic, Oct. 16,1813. Three days later, while in command of the rear guard during the French retreat, he was, being already badly wounded, drowned, or drowned himself, in the Elster. His body was not recovered till the 24th. It was then embalmed and interred in the tomb of Kosciusko. All of which is matter of history. But what became of the marshal’s body during the five days preceding its recovery is another matter. A military police report, which has lain pigeon-holed all these years, it seems, in the French war office and which a Paris paper of May 23 prints for the first time, establishes the fact that the corpse was fished out of the river by a local fisherman, and that he, having a shrewd idea that by reason of the richness of the uniform it must be the corpse of a person of consequence, arranged it as an exhibition. The exhibition lasted for the best part of those five days and was so well attended that the exhibitor took a sum of 60 florins by it. On the fifth day, however, Potocki heard of this show, recognized the body, and ransomed it He had besides to pay 100 golden fredericks for the six rings the marshal had upon him, the fisherman retaining a gold snuff-box.—Notes and Queries. The biggest hero is the one who is scared tha most,and runs the least.

GOWNS AND GOWNING.

lag hollow in the lower back, and the result is a series of unimpeachable curve* that incites the beholder to hasten her steps, only to meet with disappointment In the front view. woman who is round shouldered is even harder to manage, but the crafty dressmaker seizes upon the blouse effects allowable now, and with a loose box pleat falling from just vhere the ugly curve at the shoulders begins an appearance of straightness Is secured, while the closely fitted sides, and perhaps a line or so given by a stiap or ribbon drawn from the sn«>u det to the waist at just the right angle, complete the perfect back. Most women are much too broad across the back below the shoulders for

beauty, but a little space of shirring, the letting in of a point of lace, pr the drawing down of ,many i>auds to the waist will mitigate the difficulty and make it safe from notice by the usual eye. For the woman whose back is as flat as a shingle, all sorts of devices may be used; as, for instance, cross way shirring and smocking is resorted to where the back needs curve and fullness, and smoothly drawn goods where it doesn’t. To have a bad back means either carelessness or poverty, for the defect can be remedied, and the dressmaker who can so transform awkwardness is going to charge high for the service. If she does her work well, it is fairly worth the price. The set out of the skirt from the waist in the back also assists in giving the needed out-curve wkeresthe figure lacks it The woman who has actually no end to her back, but whose clothes would slip to her heels with nothing to stop them, has an artificial waist line made by hooking up skirt to bodice, and by the outsweep of the folds of the skirt from this point Other* women are horridly short waisted in the back, without any curve to complete the back ! hither, and they go on being wide and flat tIH the is obliged to “draw the line.” Such a woman usually lacks at the hips and is the same all the way down both sides and back.

point, while the roll of silk that edges it la actually allowed to lift a little above the apparent waist line under the arms, setting down low again in front to do battle with ugliness there. The smocking of this dress begins at the shoulder line and is drawn in towards the waist to add to the needed taper, while the yoke flattens out the round shoulders and the two strap pieces are drawn actually over the outsticking shoulder blades. The sleeves, too, do their share by being set low on top of the shoulders to give needed widtlrtbere, and by being put well In at the back to narrow appearances at that point. The design cleverly combines all the necessary tricks to restore, or to actually make, the needed proportions that the natural figure totally lacks, And with complete success.

EALLY fine figures fc should be as perfect in the lines of the back as in those In front, and while \a. woman should not be blamed, perhaps, if she is not pretty in front, there is no excuse for her being anything but graceful and attractive in the back of her. If she won’t stand l well, the dressmaker cannot help the i dullness that ruins Lall contour in front, but she can build up the correspond-

AN UGLY BACK MADE SIGHTLY.

The second figure shows a gown adapted to the woman whose waisi slides down to her heels. Note ths value of the little upstanding bow, and observe the taper produced by filling the back at the shoulder line and above with insertions, and by reducing these to a narrowing series that ends under the bow in a point. This line of Insertion may mask a “hump” at the shoulders, and the two side insertions that stop at the shoulder line will further suppress protruding shouldet blades . Three big folds and the sweep of a train supply the lack below the waist, and the unsightly back is made entirely comely. These are the days when there 18 little that is startlingly new, and when to make up for the lack of novelty, exaggerations are freely indulged In.

billows that threaten to swamp a whole costume, including wearer. Big hats are larger than ever. Yards of drapery are festooned about the biggest sleeves; if a gown is already covered with ribbon, one can safely put on more; four colors having blended Into acceptable harmony, a couple more may be added and the demands of the waning season be met Skirts resist this tendency to highly wrought effects with considerable success, but above the belt the standards are such that the batiste garniture appearing on the third pictured dress is but moderately elaborate. It is used upon a blouse of blue silk crepon having a gathered front and plain back. The yoke of embroidered and spangled batiste Is banded with dark blue satin, the collar and belt being of the same. Then there is a double collar of the batiste deeply pointed at the edges, and fluffy chiffon rosettes set off the collar. Even traveling dresses are affetft&S by the general demand for elaboration, though, of course, they escape the tidal wave of fluffy and other crushable dainties. Whatever may be said against overdoing the trimmings of dresses for ordinary use, there is an advantage in making the traveling rig ornamental, for it will then be also serviceable as a street dress. So, for once, a fashion has been set by wealthy wornen that can be copied by less fortunate ones, to the latter’s advantage. Two examples of these jaunty costumes are presented Jn . the remaining pictures.

A SECOND MODEL OF DOUBLE USE.

The first Is sketched In navy blue mohair and is made with a very full and deeply pleated plain skirt. Its bodice Is made of gathered taffeta shot with violet and blue, and is trimmed with mohair straps, three in back and front with shorter tabs at the tops of the latter, all studded with tiny steel buttons. The standing collar and belt are also of the mohair with button garniture, and the sleeves, which haVe Immense puffs and fitted cuffs, are of the same. Sliver gray cashmere is the fabric of the second rig for Journeying, and, like the first, Its skirt Is plain, and pleated with accurate nicety. Any sort of silk or shirt waist may be worn with this, for the cape Is heavy enough to furnish the necessary warmth. It Is made of alternate white satin and gray cashmere bands and fastens with a gray strap piped with white. Its collar Is high and warm and is also piped with white. The very fact that but few novelties are offered for current wear at this season of the year makes the reception of such new items as are put forward especially cordial. Indeed, that hardly expresses it, for fashionable women are so eager to try them that their haste Is almost frantic. One material that has suddenly secured this late summer favor Is banded with rows of aluminum-set Jewels separated by insertions of thread lace. It struck the fancy of those of Extravagant taste and has appeared in brilliant magnificence on the waning fancy waist Made up in the prevailing blouse fashion, it Is dazzling enough to give distinction even among all the multitude of glittering things that glare under the summer sun at the swell resorts. Pliny says of a Roman gentleman whom he does not name that he was able to repeat the ‘‘lliad” and the “Odyssey,” the whole of the “Aeneid” and most of the poems of Horace from memory. “Wake Nicodemus,” a very popular song during the war, was written by Henry C. Work, the author of “My Grandfather’s Clock.”

A Little Ho Idler. The smallest conscript in France last year was Luclen Mathey, of Asnleres, whp was exactly seventy-five centimetres, or about thirty inches high. This year the record has been beaten by a young man in the department of the Seine, who is a centimeter shorter.

Richard Cole, the seven-year-old son of Albert Cole, 1523 Walnut street, Helena, Mont., did not go to Sunday school the other afternoon. It was not his fault, for with the assistance of his mother, he was getting ready to go as fast as he could, when Providence, or somebody or something else, interfered, and all at once stopped Richard and plans. The lad was bending over a trunk, getlng out a pair of shoes, when a bolt of lightning struck the house, entered the room and struck him in the small of the back and ran downward. Richard set up a yell, and his very much frightened mother rushed in and picked him up. The first thing the lad did was to ask who It was “that shot him.” The lad’s trousers were a complete wreck, having been torn to pieces at the place which was to have occupied the bench at Sundayschool, but, strange to say, he himself was not very much hurt.

Got the Mother Out of the Way.

Then the young lady denounced her intended mother-in-law for speaking disrespectfully of Emperor William. Treading on imperial toes is dangerous in Germany, so the old lady was arrested, and pending her trial the young man and the young woman got married.

“It’s no more use to argue with what’s bred In the bone than it is to try to turn the-gulf stream the other way by sticking an oar down," said Captain Hayford In a ruminating tone to the grandchildren who sat with him upon the wharf. “Now, your grandma is a terrible particular woman. She was born with the habit of cleanliness, and custom has developed it—abnormally, 'so to say." The boys had noticed the old man’s dejected attitude, and wondered if some new. system of housekeeping was being carried out “Now, lam a patient man. I’m willing to be told to wash my hands before I touch the coal hod, and again afterward. I’m willing everything on the stove should have a bath before a meal, and afterward. I never have complained about sitting in the L part of the house and shutting up all the rest for company, or wiping my feet on four sets of mats on the way to the table; but there are some things that do rile me a good deal.” The children were somewhat used to these outbreaks, and had learned the value of silent sympathy.' “Now, what do you suppose I’m waiting down here for?" As no one could imagine, he explained: “1 sent for a man to come tills morning and take away those shed room stairs and put up now ones, and I do declare your grandma set out he shouldn’t move them till she had scrubbed them down! There’s the carpenter— I’m paying him by the hour—sitting out there on the woodpile, waiting for those stairs to be washed. I dare say if you looked around you couldn’t find so much as an eye winker dropped onthem, anyway." “Can’t the man do somethlg else while he’s waiting?" asked the practical listeners. The old man smiled. “I dare say he could, sonny. Run up and tell him to be scouring his nails and putting chloride of lime on his hammers and saws, for no doubt he’ll be called on to do it” And the old man crossed his limbs dejectedly, like one who had lost all spirit and courage.

In Young California.

There were neither courts nor juries In the land; the word of a Californian was the only bond required. Even the wary Yankee traders who frequented the coast when foreign commerce was finally allowed, trusted them freely from one season to the next. An incident illustrating this trait is told by the Aguirre family. Don Jose Aguirre, who owned a trading vessel, once had as supercargo a young man who was a stranger to California customs. While the ship, with cargo, lay in San Pedro h&rbor, the master being absent, Augustin Machado, a ranchero of considerable wealth in land and herds, but who could neither read nor write, went on board to do some purchasing, his cars awaiting him on shore. When he had made his choice and was about having the goods conveyed to land, the supercargo asked him for either payment or guaranty. Machado did not at first understand that he was being distrusted; no such demand had ever before been made of any ranchero, where the buyer offered no money he being credited without hesitation. When at length it dawned upon the Californian, he drew a lmir from his beard, and gravely handing it to the young man, said with dignity: “Deliver this to Senor Aguirre and tell him it is a hair from the beard of Augustin Machado—you will find It a sufficient guaranty." The supercargo, crestfallen, placed the hair In the leaves of his account book and allowed the goodß to bo removed. Upon Aguirre’s return he was deeply chagrined at the Insult that had been offered to his friend.—Helen Elliott Bandlnl in Overland.
