FOR TIIE UGLY GIRLS Victor Hugo says that ho who would know suffering must know of the sorrows of women. Let him say ot ugly women, and he will touch the depth of bitterness. What tears the plain ones shed on silent pillows. Shrinking even from the pale, beautifully moonshine that constrasts so fatally with their homeliness! They would give of life to win one of beauty. This re tfret is natural, irresistible, and not to be forbidden. Better let the grief have its way till the busy period of lile tak a one's thoughts oft one's sell, and who forgets to care wliethcrshe is beau tiful or not. Dam up the sluices Of any sorrow and it deepens and grows wider, Am I treating this peculiarly feminine regret over-teuderly It is with ro tuembrance of a girl who thought herself so homely that she absolutely ]rayed that she might die and go to b!e perfected in heaven. More than one girl makes such a wish as this at night before small mirrors in cottage or mansion chambers, with no eye but her own to scan the hopeless features. Why doesn't some

one

open a school

©1 fine arts, literally des beaux arts, and make a greater success than Worth does, by improving the wearers instead of ttie costumes?

Tiirtbat time comes let us make the best ot present resources, and consider these recipes, unearthed the other day from an ancient bookshelf belonging to a maiden lady who was once, if tradi dltiou may be credited, a beauty of no mean order. There is one thing to console us Kate you and I will never have to cry for oar lost beauty. Your hands are to be pitied, for solt fingers are what a woman can at least afford to lose. They are needed to touch sick folks, and do quick sewing, and handle children with. So we are glad to learn something of this kind

To soften the hands, fill a wash-basin halt full of line white sand and soap suds, hot as can be borne. Wash the hands in this five minutes at a time, brushing and rubbing them in the sand. Rinse in warm lather of fine soap, and after drying rub the hands in dry bran or corninoal. Dust them, and 'finish with rubbing cold cream well into the skin. The best is flint sand, 01 lie white quartz sold for filters. It may i*i used repeatedly by pouring the \\.uer away from each washing, :iml udding fresh to keep it from blowing about. This effectually removes tho roughness caused by housework, and should be used every day, first tising acid to remove ink or vegetable stains.

N. U.—Always rub the spot with cold cream or oil after using acid on the lingers. The cream supplies the place of tho natural oil ot tiie skin, which the acid removes in discharging stains.

To give a fine color to tho nails, the hands and fingers must bo well lathered and washed with scented soap the,!) the nails must be rubbed with equal parts of cinnabar and emery, followed by oil of bitter almonds. To remove while specks 0:1 tho nails, melt equal parts ot pitch and turpentine in a small -up add to it vinegar and powdored sulphur. Hub this on tho nails, and tho specks will soon disappear. Pitch and myrrh melted together may be used with the samo results.

An embrocation of softening and whitening tho hands and arms, which dates far Lack, possibly to King James' time, Is made from rayrrh, one ounce 'honey, four onnces rosowator, six ounces. Mix tho wholo in one well blended mass for use, melting tho wax, rosewater and honey togother in a dish over hot water, and adding tho myrrh while hot. Hub this thickly over the skin bofore going to bed. It is good forchappod surfaoos, and would make an excellent mask for tho faco.

A wash "for removing tan, freckles, blotches and pimples, as tho highsounding prefaco assures, is made from two gallons of strong soap-suds, to which are addod ono pint of alcohol and a quarter of a pound of rosemary. Apply with a llnon rag. This is better when kept in a close jar over night.

To c'.oan tho tooth rub them with the nshos of burned broad. It must be thoroughly burned, not charred.

Tho following is said to bo an excellent curling fluid Put two pounds or common soap', cut small, into three pints of spirits of wino, and melt together stirring with a clean pieco of wood add essence of ambergris, citron .itlid noroll, about a quarter of an ounco each.

COMMON SCANDAL.—A woman is being tried in California for shooting down, at sight, a man who had publicly maligned her. Such conduct is bevond Justification, ol courso. A wrongred woman will always find juries gallant enough, if not just enough, to vindicate her reputation if she Is deserving of that Vindication. Still it anything tcoulil justify a woman in summarily punishing ono of the male sex, it would be an attempt of the lattor to circulate calumny affecting her honor. No honorable man stoops to do a thing so baso, and a dishonorable ano ought to suffor for It when ho doos. And yet ,liow many men there are iu the world who do not hesitate to utter tho inos: 'unblushing falsehoods evory day about virtuous women, merely toexalt themselves as lady-killers In tho eyes of their licentious companions? A public horsewhipping would not be in an appropriate punishment lor ttiom and if •evory woman whose good name they steal would visit upon thorn with a whip, the indignation they entertain, justice would bo served and the community benefitted.

ArilORISMS FOR THE POOR.—Josh Hillings says: Thare i* inutch kan besedln favor ov igood breeding—it In tho only thing that kan make aphool endurable.

Thare ain't mutch phon in nhisick, but tharo is a good deal of phtsick in phun.

Men will forgit iulurys ©a*lor than kontempt they had rather be hated than not noticed.

I hav bin watching human intercourse a little lately, and find it largely made of grunts, groans and growls, varied with miffs, hoots and howls.

About the ampiyest thing icno ov ix a pocket-book with nothing In it—It Is rather wuss than a knot hole.

The man who pitys everyboddy wants watching, for the chances are that he ix gitting phatt sUly on other people's misfortunes.

IT doean't always pay fbr people to play smart with apparently stupid ^men. A few nights ago, one of this inort was telling a story, in which he remarked. "an idea struck him."

Where did it strike him" asked a

?nmart

voung man. "Where it'll nevar

•strike yon in the brains." He wasn't asked any more conundrums until his story was finished.

A PltATRR FHOK THK IIBART.—Avertable Topsy. taken from tho poorhouse lv kind lady, wa» extremely anxious lo please. She was taught the Lord's prayer, and told that ah« might afterward ask for whatever ahe wanted. Ono ovening Mr. M. overheard her in her room saying. "O. Lord make my hand fly fast in tno dish-water, so Mrs. M. won't scold me. Amen.'
