CHICAGO GIRLS
"Who Trip tho Light Fantastic1 for Charity.
"Cats Made from Recent photographs ol Bertha Uarnes. Eva Onderdonk, Emily Cbnraasero and the Two Mis# railmans.
[COPTKIGHT, 1802.]
The daughters of George M. Pallman, who when a carpenter conceived "the idea of beds in railway coaches

'.and later proved there was "millions "in it," are excellent examples of the Chicago combination of cultivated society belles and practical, generousminded, common-sensed young women.
Miss Pullman is very like her father in appearance, possessing the same dark, strong facc, accentuated by a very determined chin. She is tall, of good figure and is charmingly gracious in manner. She is devoted to her books, an excellent pianist and a fine equestrienne.
She is a bit of a gourmet, and has opportunity to display this talent as well as some executive ability in the management of her father's elegaiit home.
The younger of the sisters, at present traveling in California with Mrs. Pullman, is a girl of striking individuality, tall, lithe, a decided brunette, and is always costumed superbly. She possesses jo. certain hauteur of manner, and yet -withal is vivacious and interesting. She

is an unusually good linguist and a capital whip. Her engagement to Frank Carolan, of San Francisco, has been announced.
These young ladies were introduced to society about two years ago, having finished their education in Europe under tho care of Mrs. John A. Logan.
Since their return, amidst all the duties entailed upon them by their social position, they have yet found "time and to spare" to be active workers in •charities, licrthn Barnes, another of Chicago's belles, is an extremely popular young woman. She figures as bridesmaid at nil the weddings and pours tea or chocolate nt all tho teas and "at homes," which proves she is quite aa much a favorito among the members of her own sex as with "the lords of crontion."
She is not altogether pretty, but it ia never the pretty women who rule the world. Although her eyes are blue and

her hair golden no one ever speaks of hsr as a decided blonde her figure is good, she dresses effectively, and of Miss Barnes it may be said, as of too few women, she walks wclL
She Is the mistress of several languages* having spent some six years abroad, and has an undoubted talent for music, not only playing well on the piano and mandolin, but having composed with no indifferent success several pieces for both these instruments. The "Mandolin Player* might be the title of the accompanying picturesque portrait of Miss llaraes, the original of which was painted by the celebrated Italian, Gordi OianL
Her mother, Mrs. Charles Barnes, presented her daughter to tne social world at a very brilliant ball given at "Kinsley's some two or three years ago.
The portrait of Emily Chumasero scarcely conveys an idea that this beautiful young woman is a veritable daughter of the night—dark, haughty, imperious. She is the daughter of John T. Chumasero, of the house of J. VFarwell & Co., from whom she inherits that tinge of money consciousnesss which many think quite' spoils her statuesque face however that may be, she has been the recipient of much attention since her debut into society's maddening
whirl,
of which weaiy round
the young girl 'admits herself inordinately fond—although she keeps herself well in hand and has time fojr music and charities.
Miss Cbumaseqo-affects the English in her attire, and, as she has a very smart figure, her braided costumes a la militaire are always becoming.
A girl who, "an' she would," might be a reigning belle in Chicago is Helen Fairbank, the lovely daughter of N. K. Fairbank, who began life as a bricklayer and evoluted into leaf lard, soap, etc.
But instead of inheriting the social qualities which have made her handsome, gray-haired father a leader in society and club life, she lias her mother's womanly devotion to quiet, domestic home life.
She has the Irish type of beauty, blue eyes and dusky hair, is quiet in her taste and dress, although her face and

air would carry off well a much smarter style of attire. She affects the soft, warm,.comfortable reds in her at home dresses.
Miss Fairbank has traveled much, is devoted to music and art, and is herself a thorpugh musician.
She can lay good claim to intellectuality. "She is a regular book-worm," her friends declare.
Among the debutantes of last season none has been so generally admired as "little Miss Winston" and Margaret Erslcine, who, neither of them beauties, are great favorites among the younger sets. Miss Winston is especially a very capable young woman, filling, with considerable ability, the place of the mother she has lost, in the household of her father, Frederick S. Winston, tho wellknown lawyer and politician.
There is an intimate friend of Miss Winston and Miss Erskine, who, although not yet formally introduced into societe, is creating a good deal of havoc
EVA OJTDERDONK.
in the hearts of susceptible youths, and usually manages to coax her„fond and pretty mamma to allow her to be present "at just this affair, please, mamma."
Eva Onderdonk, at seventeen, is as veritable a spoiled darling as so beautiful a girl Is apt to be: bright, piquant, fresh—her spirituelle face framed in soft masses of golden-brown hair, her big blue eyes look up at one in such an appealing fashion it ishard to believe that they know "the flash of summer lightnings," and yet 'tis whispered—
Her taper hand and rounded wrist Hare facile power to form a flst Brows saintly calm, and lips devout Know every change of scowl and pout Miss Onderdonk confides to hotr friends that she never intends to formally "come out," for what's the use, when, even though when still in school, she "has slipt in.*
She is only an adopted daughter of Chicago, her father, Andrew Onderdonk, having but recently come from New York to superintend the building of the new waterworks tunnel.
Of all the debutantes of this season Marion Peck is the only one who has made a good running against the old favorites for first place in popularity. She is a very pleasing girl and a decided addition to the ranks of beauty. She is of so blonde a type that her friends sometimes call her "Fair Maid Marion," and of all the usual accomplishments attendant upon a careful education and extensive European travel, her gentle mother prizes none so much as her daughter's unusual gift of conversation.

SIR EDWIN ARNOLD dashes off his poems in Japanese first and then employs a private secretary to make a typewritten translation of them in English. It is the automatic working of the typewriter that imparts such extraordinary metrical perfection to Sir Edwin's work.

A YOUNG man named Bronson, of Springfield, 111., three years ago recovered her bonnet for an old lady which had been blown off and carried some distance up the street. The old lady thanked him and took his name and address. Two weeks ago she died, and on opening her will it was discovered that she had not remembered Bronson at all. Such gratitude as this is rare.

THE THRUSH AND THE SNAIL. How the Female Finally Managed to Swallow the Tidbit. "It is, I think, well to record the .following observations of the intelligence of the thrush,1'says a writer in Nature. "The first happened on June 28, 1805. I then,saw from the windows that look out on the lawn north of my house a thrush steadily 'stepping westward' in front of the hedge t^iat parts the lawn from the public road. The bird seemed to be intentionally making for a gravel path that, after passing almost close to its windows, bends to the northwest, toward the small gate of my front garden. It was bearing something in its bill. On coming to the path it attempted to break this on a stone. It did not succeed. It then tried another stone. This time it succeeded. Thereupon it flew away. On the spot I found a remarkably big stone embedded in the path and ronnd it were scattered bits of snail shelL The bird had eaten the snaiL The second of the observations I would uote, and the more striking of the two, happened on June 5, 1890. I then was viewing the gravel path from the westermost of the four windows. Just beneath me standing on the path was a female thrush. She had succeeded in breaking a snail shelL She had the snail in her bilL But despite vigorous efforts she could not swallow it. Up hopped a male thrush. Standing before the female he opened his bill. She dropped the snail into his bilL He chewed the snaiL He dropped it back into the female's ready bilL She swallowed it. The pair blithely trotted off side by side toward the small gate. I saw them no more." /,
STUDENT AND BEGGAR. The Latter Was Never Appreciated Until After Death.
A young medical student in New York had a remarkable experience recently, says the N. Y. Sun. He belongs to that sort of young men who are compelled to. depend almost entirely upon their own resources to obtain their education and he spends his evenings in a downtown office. For a long time he was accosted by a professional beggar, a strapping big fellow with a stiff neck, while passing through City Haill park. The beggar accosted him night after night in an insolent manner. Frequently it was difficult for the medical student to get rid of the beggar, and they rarely parted without an exchange of epithets. This thing went on for some'time, and then the beggar suddenly disappeared. One morning shortly after this the medical student went into the dissecting room to dissect a body. He was surprised to find that the body assigned to him was that of the troublesome beggar. The student had often wondered what was the matter with the fellow's neck, and now he had an opportunity to find out. He dissected the body and found that a layer of bone had grown down the neck, preventing the head from being moved backward or forward. One of the attendants mounted the skeleton for the student, and It now stands complete in his room at the foot of the bed.
STRANDED AMERICANS. Hundreds of Unfortunates In South America Endeavoring to Get Home.
A civil engineer who has recently returned from South America says, according to the Dallas News: "I saw hundreds of Americans standing on the wharves at Buenos Ayres and Santiago pleading with the ship captains to bring them away. They are willing to do any sort of menial work to get away. They are in a wretched condition. Material progress on the continent has been ruined by the involution in the Argentine Republic and the recent internecine struggle in Chili. All railroad building has been stopped and English gold, which has been the developing influence, has been cut off by the unsettled condition of things. No man knows what the morrow will bring forth. "Young men laboring under the delusion that South America is an Sidorado had better disillusionize themselves at once. It is the last place on earth to go for bettering one's chances. After another ten years have gone by things may improve down there, but there has got to be a considerable settling down all around before you can expect any good to come out of South America."
HE COULDN'T DEADHEAD. Didn't Hartley Wrote the Play, But He
Get Into the Theater.
The late Bartley Campbell, the playwright, one day found himself in a small but "hustling" mining town in the far west, says the New York Telegram. He saw that a play of his that had been pirated was to be presented at the theater that night. He went to the play house and told the ticket taker that he would like to see the "show." "Who are you?" asked the manager. "My name is Bartley Campbell," was the reply. "I don't know you," returned the manager. "Oh, yes you do," said Campbell, "I am Bartley Campbell, the author of this play, and I want to see how you are doing it." "How do I know you are Bartley Campbell?" surlily demanded the pirate manager. "Why," answered Campbell, pointing to a horrible picture of the author on a poster, "there's my portrait" "Come off," said the manager. "You cant play that game on me. That portrait ain't a bit like yer, nod if it was we don't let no deadheads into this •hOW"^
Vj.JPeaoiifal Arbitration.
The best known of the peaceable settlements of international controversies was that between the United States and Great Britain, in 1873, on account of the "Alabama claims," which matter was referred to five arbitrators named by the United States, England, the Svflss republic, the king of Italy and the emperor of Brazil, respectively. In a dispute between England and France in 1348 the king of Prnisia acted as arbitrator. A controversy between the United States and Portugal in 1850 was referred to Louis Napoleon, who was at that time president of Franc*.
How Wife Should Be Treated.
1 should at all times extend to her the attention and politeness due a queen. I should 'indulge her petty needs and cravings, and the larger ones to the full extent of my exchequer, and if she were giveh to extravagant ideas I would reason with her calmly, not swear or curse at her, but show her the limit of my resources, make a confidante and companion of her. She should have all the luxuries of life that I enjoyed, for a woman hates a selfish man. She should have her own opinion, for surely her views are as dear to her as my own are to me. Worried by the cares of business, she should not be annoyed by them, for I would endeavor to leave my troubles on the doorstep.
I should bid her adieu in the morning with a kiss, and if I could not bring home a smiling face in the evening I should re-main-away until I could. I should not expect too much of her, but ever remember that, being'a woman, she has the worst of life from the cradle to the grave. I should be careful as to her tiring of me, and should not exclude her from all society, caging her like a bird, but would freely allow her the freedom she desired, relying on her honor. If she wdre ill I should nurse her were she in sorrow I should sympathize with and comfort her. I should
have
her pathway
strewn with roses and her journey down the stream of life only a pleasant dream, and when the final hour came for her departure' into the great beyond my hand should be the last to smooth her pillow, and as I feel this night 'twould be my wish to be her partner still.—Boston Courier.
Justin McCarthy's Tribute to Women.
Justin McCarthy, M. P., writing of women in English politics, says: "Woman is coming forward, because she has something to say which she feels ought to be said. This is the strictly legitimate influence of woman. It is the intelligence of woman coming to the help of the intelligence of man. I am utterly unable to see how this comradeship in the management of affairs can either lower the dignity of man or unsex the nature of woman."

AN ALARMING CONDITION
And How to Surely Overcome It,
Sleeplessness is a rapid road to the Insane asylum.
Men allow care, anxiety or business troubles to drive sleep from their eyelids, while women, with unstrung nerves and ex-
"IFI coULI) LY SLEEP citable temperaments, pass hours upon hours each night in -leepless, restless misery.
What wonder that there are so many shattered nerves, tired brains and debilitated bodies, when we consider the thousands who pass sleepless or disturbed nights, and rise orni ngs feeling indescribably miserable, dragged out, with tired limbs, exhausted energies, nerveless and ambitlonless.
It is maddest folly to use opium, morphine or chloral. There is one sure way to cure sleeplessness—use Dr_ Greene's Nervura. This wonderful remedy Is nature's own sleep producer, and is perfectly harmless, being made from pure vegetable medicines. ..
."WOULD GIVE A FORTUNE FOB A NIGHT'S SLEEP 1" It sooths, calms and quiets the weakened, irritable and over-wrought nerves, producing perfect repose and refreshing natural sleep at the same time it builds up the shattered nerves, and gives renewed life, strength and vigor to the system. Use it, you who are sleepless. "I can cheerfully recommended Dr. Greene's Nervura as being a good remedy for sleeplessness. Having teen troubled in this way for three years, and objecting seriously to opiates. I have used Dr. Greene's Nervura with great benefit. I have also recommended the Nervura to many of my friends, who have been much benefitted by its use.
