Ho is a big Newfoundland dog, and lie belongs to Mrs. Moiiatt, who lives in Harlow street. Mrs. Muff aft was looking out of tho window early in tho morning when she saw Jack hiding bohind a clump of bushes and with a most interested expression watching tho milkjnan filling the tin pail on the stoop of the Rev.

An XftiHnu ''iiinc.

A traveler describes a game which is •popular with the children of Italy. It as very like one played by American children. In Italy tho game is called ©coating the eggs, and is thus played: The children sic a row on the grass, Tvith every pair of brown feet wi sight. Ti.o mother eomn.s her txtac is, tno cliildren's ieo't—and says: "Now, there am If e^gs. J)i fioa teat any while 1 Ixi her absence tho chil certain number of foot: f?.'ticks and say, "What a long time another i.s at church!"' She conies home, counts tho eggs and says: "Why, how as this?

When boys and girls travel, thoy are always interested in the flags which are waved at the crossings and switchboxes along the lines ol tho railroads. Three ••colors are most seen—white, green and led—and a little couplet which railroad .Tama all know will fix the meaning of

Alvise signals in your minds: White's for right, and red's for wrong, And green's for gently go along.

A Clear Cut Argument.

The young woman who was recently denied admission to the &ew Jersey bar by the New Jersey courts—Miss Kilgore by name—is a most attractive

3*oung

woman personally. She is tall, slender, and her face is charming and interesting as well as bright and intellectual. Still even all these tilings failed to socure her the favor of tho antediluvian I New Jersey judge. All in the court were I notably impressed, however, by one point- of her argument. It was as follows: "You know if is the custom," she said, "for the New Jersey courts to permit lawyers from other states to come hero and practice. You must also know t':at in many states—New York,

Pennsylvania, llhodo Island, yes, and even Florida—there are women lawyers. You. therefore, it' the opportunity should occur, would permit women from other states to practice at our bar. Why should you deny it to women of our own state':"—Buffalo Times.

A I.onR Lane.

One stato after another goes against woman suffrage. It is now Massachusetts which follows in the wake of New Hampshire and South Dakota and New York and Kansas, all of which liavo voted against it within a half year. We arc most surprised at Massachusetts, where the women constitute a large majority of the population, unlike in South Dakota and Kansas, where the men are in the ascendant, or in New Hampshire and New York, where the proportion of each of tho two sexes is about equal.

The Tea Gown.

"The tea gown, of all other gownings, is most prone to poetize a woman's beauty, says a writer in Tho St..James Budget of London. "So keenly have we of the weaker sex taken this fact to heart that we have gradually promoted it to a dinner dress, or, to use tho French term, a robe d'interioure. In our epoch timo is more precious than rubies, and afier an exhausting day we should consider oar guesrs a nuisance were it not tnat wo can don corsetless flowing robes which soothe us into repose while they enhance our charms. A cunning.y combined deshabille is far more i\ tehiiig than the most studied attire, and now the tea gowns are made of tho loveliest am! richest materials,?:] slightly (iecoileio at tho neck allow us to wear them r.c tho theater if the fancy moves f:.-: to ie.ko our triom,.: th( re after a smail dinner pai\y.'

A Now Y'ork caterer has copyrighted witnin the last day or two an ice cream mold oi. Tniby ami will hereafter model her lor his patrons. Tho mold is a facsimile of the much di.-eu.ssed heroine from tho crown of her classic: head to tho solo of her celebrated loot. At a luncheon tho other day the ice crcam-i was, rvi in kvtle flower cups, the design being lavender orchids modeled in candy and nt: d. Tho centerpiece for tho table was a royal (duster of lavender orchids massed in maidenhair fern and surrounded by a bank of violets. A lavender satin ribbon, to which was attached a hunch of violets, extendcd from the centerpiece to the plate of each guest. Alter tho guests were seated by drawing toward her tho ribbon at her plate each woman obtained the bmquot designed for her.

Kditnl by Women.

Dublin has a new paper called Today's Woman. It is edited and written by a group of talented women, many of whom are university graduates. Its leading article, which gives us a good idea of its object, is by Sir Charles Cameron on "Scientific Professions For Women." Progross in England has been along different grooves from what it lias been in America. Hero women have entered law, medicine, dentistry, the pulpit, chemistry, pharmacy and architecture, while in England" they have seemingly avoided theso fields and have gone into geology, mineralogy, botany, zoology, jialeontology and higher mathematics. Today's Woman argues tho adoption of the American lystem and tho broadening of tho British system.

Ico Cream Designs.

Almost any kind of fruit or flower can bo imitated in ico cream. A cocoanut, brown, hair}', resting on its broad palm leaf, with little wisps and tendrils of foliage clinging to it, is so oxact. a likeness of the original in size, shape :ind coloring that ono wonders at tho slovor deception. A muskmelon, round and flutod, with its rough rind and two or throe mutilated leaves attached to tho stem, is also imitated cleverly in shape and coloring.
