WOMAJST GOSSIP. A. Model Woman. I know a woman woaderous fair. A model woman she ft Who never tons her neighbors down When she goes ont to tea. She never gossips after church Of dresses or of hats; She never meets the sewing school And joins them in their spats. She never talks of woman's rights; ' Nor is she so unkind, Whene'er her husband stays out late, To talk him deaf and blind. She never beats a salesman down, Nor asks for pretty plaques; She never asks the thousand things Which do his patience tax. . These statements may seem very strange At least they may to some; But just remember viiis, my friends. The woman's deat and dumb. YonkersStatesr.ian 8kc Never Was. "Charley Podington was in here last night and made me miserable for a couple of hours," said Miss Nibleting to her bosom friend the other morning. "Don't you like him?" "No, I detest him." "Why, he just told me as I met him on the'street that he called, and you said you never -were more delighted to meet him." "Well, what of that? I never was." Marathon Independent ' Mow to Do XL "I should hate to have a husband who "lowanced me every time I wanted to buy anything," said Mrs. Simms. "When I tell Simms that I want a little change to go shopping with he doesn't hum and haw as some men do. He just takes out- his pocket-book and says, 'Certainly, my dear; how much do you want, a five or a ten?" "And what do you say?" asked Mjs. Smh)h. "Oh, I never say anything. He gives me the money right off without waiting for me to answer." "And how much does he give?" "A dollar generally unless he has some change handy. But then it isn't the amount that I care so much about. It is the readiness with which he responds to my request that makes me think so much of him." Boston Transcript. To Slahc Maidens Forever Young and Fair. A ray of. joy shines upon the pathway of the elderly belle whose physician insists upon sea bathing; but whose complexion savors puia fully of the antique. A friend of humanity a Frenchman of course lias invented a set of cosmetics that resist the effect- of saltwater to wash them off or injure the delicacy of their bloom, so that the well-rouged will come out all rosy and blushing, or as if the bathing had put health and vigor into them, and th frozen yellow and blue tinges will bej hidden from " the carping gaze of a heartless world. No more azure noses and old gold cheeks for these elderly maidens, but peach-like, ocean-defying snow white and rose-fed, fair and fresh as the blushes of the dawn. The damse who hitherto has emerged from the waves grim and pallid as a damaged mermaid too long kept on exhibition; may now rise, like a new Aprodite, perennially young and fair. Boston Courier. Moto SaciMff They Were. And then some of the women got to telling how saving they were. One would ravel old carpet to weave over, and one would cut up old ingrain into carpet rags. Another made her dolman out of her husband's overcoat, one of ' the kind of coats with wings like a dolman. Another wore her husband's fine boots that were too small for him, another her husband's hat which nad been very much admired, another made her son's hose in summer time out of the legs of her own, cutoff and rounded at the toes, another made all her own essences and baking powder' at home with a great saving, another made liniment out of spirits of turpentine and kerosene, another mended tinware nd broken dishes herself, another cut and mended all the men's clothes, and so on and so on. Really, we did feel quite proud of the American women. Why, what generalship she has ! What a wonderful talent for strategy and economizing and "making ends meet I Eosella Bice, in The Household. French, English anil American Women. There is, with the little French woman, a finished, harmonious look, which gives her the palm as to "gout." She is in perfect taste from .the crown of her dainty, graceful head to the points of her pretty feet, and moves a if quito conscious that she is "cute" and "taking" (excuse the slang). Her neighbor, the English woman, whatever may be her lack of grace, when compared with the former, is more Minervalike in style fit to stand the wear and tear of life, and pleasant to look upon, as a picture of comely health. Now and the freshness of an En-

lish maiden draws forth a murmur ot admiration from the critical lookerson, who forget the hang of her dress and the shape of lier boot for the sake of her winsome face. American women speak Jor, -themselves. Every one does homage to the unreflected loveliness of the American girl, and to her true womanliness. Some say that there is too much independence in the free use they make of their power of speech, the eagle glances of their eyes, imbibing all the knowledge they came to seek. This may be, to some extent, true, for I am sorry to know a few do draw the censure of stangers on their countrywomen by their loud talk ,and pushing ways. However, on the whole, they are admired for their beauty andcultivation. The Fren'ch adore American women, say they are "au courrant" on all subjects, ,asi intetligerites et si liberales" Cor. Louisville Courier-Journal.

Beautiful Meads of Mair. "How do you keep your little boy's hair such a beautiful golden shade?" asked a Journal reporter of a fashionable New York lady. "Why, thap the natural color," said the lady somewhat indignantly as she twined a long golden curl over her finger. "But doesn't his hair grow darker as he grows older?" asked the reporter. "I have heard that some mothers can keep that bright gold in their children's hair all the time." "Yes' assented the lady, "that is so. I kept the color in my little girl's hair until she was 15, and then she had enough vanity to take care of it herself." "How did you do it?" asked the reporter. "Her hair was very fine and long when she was 6 years old, but it began tp turn dark, so every other day I washed it in soda and common soap, and when it was dry, brushed it thoroughly, and then curled it. Once a week I rubbed the scalp with a raw egg-" "Doesn't washing the scalp 30 much make it dry?" asked the Journalier. "Yes, if you do not brush it thoroughly, and then it is the best thing for it." , "Your children have very beautiful hair," said the reporter to a lady who sat in her drawing-room, with a halfdozen children playing about her. All of them but two had light yellow or golden hair, with bangs and curls. '"Yes," she replied. "Those two little children with short hair7 are my sister's. I wouldn't have a child about me unless it had pretty hair, but my sister thinks differently. Teddie, the boy, insisted on having his hair cut when he was 6, and he had the most beautiful yellow hair, just like spun silk, and then Flora, the little girl, cried to have her hair cut, to be like Teddie. My sister says it makes a boy more manly to have short hair, and for my part, I don't sea any necessity of being manly at 6." "How do you keep your children's hair so pretty?" "Oh," she replied, "they have a French bonne who washes their hair in salt water and a little potash, and puts it up in curl papers every night. Their hair does not curl naturally, you know." "Isn't the salt water injurious to the haif?" "No, I think not, although I havo often heard so; but my children have heavy hair, and they have had it washed in saltwater ever since they were babies." A lady living on Fifth avenue has a little girl with large black eyes and very yellow hair floating over her shoulders to her waist. The reporter asked her if she did not possess a very unusual style of beauty. "Oh, no," she replied; "but I bleach her hair. I am so partial to dark eyes and fair hair, so I keep her hair bleached." "How do. you accomplish it?" asked the reporter. "I wash it in lemon-juice once a week, and the acid makes it light. My other children have all black hair, and I keep it cropped close to their heads, but Ethel is the plainest of all of them, so I thought it was well to give her some special advantage. " "Why don't you hare your boy's curls cut off this warm weather?" said the reporter to a Brooklyn lady. "Cut off my boy's beautiful hair!" she exclaimed. "Oh, I wouldn't do it for $100 cash." "But they'll have to come off soon," said the reporter. "I know it, and it breaks my heart to think of it; so don't mention it to me, please." New York Journal. "Shabby, " said a Chatham street clothier to his son as he saw a song-and-dance man coming, "mark up everydings a ca-wafter of a tollar, und I put oud a sign, - 'Trade dollars daken here for a hundert cents.' " To accomplish a duty is to diffuse joy; and as every moment of life holds a duty, it depends upon us to surround ourselves with unceasing joys.

DxFE IN TEXAS. The latest lynching episode occurred recently on tho scientific frontier of Texas. Koscoislco Dalryiuple was a hard character with a reputation as big as a court-house, but not so symmetrical, perhaps, and at times he was looked upon" with longing, avaricious eyes by the vigilants. One day they nabbed him under suspicious circumstances, hurried hhn out of town to a neighboring grove for the purpose of helping him over the gravelly bed of the shining river of light. On this involuntary trip towards eternity, Kosky earnestly and eagerly protested his, innocence of the express crime charged in the rude indictment, and when tho party arrived at the grove and took a breathing spell, Kosky got his second wind and commenced to harangue the multitude with all the vehemence of Marc Antony over the corpse of Cicsar, if ndt with that distinguished Boman's eloquence and address. "Gentlemen," he said, "I am a hard citizen," "The point is well taken," said the chairman of the committee, "but tell us something new." "Yes, I'm tough. You know all about me, I suppose; know my record, and have got mo down pretty middlin' fine?" "We are on to you, Kosky, this time, for a fact." "They say I stole Gabe Bunnel's horse." "That's the charge, Kosky," said the chairman. I "All right, gentlemen. Do any of you who have known me off and on for four or five years believe I don't know a good horse from a mustang, from a broncho, from a scrub colt with the glanders, an oldwatch-eyed, sweenied, poll-evil animal Avith his shoulders knocked down and thrushes on all four feet, mane roached with a jackknife and saddle-galls as big as a platter ?" "You always was a good judge of a horse, Koskv." "I was." " "Yes, 111 say tha much for you." "Well, that's all I got to say, gentlemen. Now,, if I look like a man who would steal any of Gabe Runnel's stock when there was plenty of good horses not forty rods away; if I look that mean and low-down, and insignificant, wopple-jawed, and freckled, why, gentlemen, it was high time I was hung high. Go a with the matinee; I've had my say. If I'm that low down in the scale of humanity, why, pull me up to glory and let me die liko a chicken thief." The chairman ordered the rope thrown off Kosky's neck, and, covering him with his Winchester rifle, said, laconically ; "Skip." And Kosky was off like the Svind. Texas Sifting s. ISLANDS OF, TMJS UNITED STATES. The coast of the State of Michigan alone is gemmed with no fewer than 179 islands of all sizes, from Isle Boyale, which forms an entire county of more than fifty miles iu length by ten in breadth, to islets of less than an acre in surface. Their total area aggregates 407,730 acres. In "Band & McNally's Atlas of the World" all the islands of noticeable magnitude are laid down, and by this authority it appers that Maine has forty such islands ; Massachusetts, ' thirty-nine; Rhode Island, twenty-f our ; Connecticut, nine; New York,' twonty-two; New Jersey, two; Delaware, six; Maryland, sixteen; Virginia, seven.; North Carolina, ten; ISouth Carolina, ten; Georgia, eleven, Florida, seventy-nine; Alabama, four; Mississippi, seven; Louisiana, twentyfour; Texas, eight; Ohio, thirteen; Michigan, 179; Wisconsin, thirty-one; California, fourteen ; Washington Territory, twenty-six. Alaska Territory embraces more than 200 islands, many of which are of great value as fishing stations. Thera are hundred's of petty islets not located except in the charts of the United States Coast Survey. Many of them, like the islands in the Western rivers, are not known by names but only by numbers. But a small number of the more invportant islands in the above list are inhabited; less than 100 ia all. The soil is of all varieties, from the fertile fields of Port Royal, Hilton Head and Edisto, S. C.t the homo of the famous "sea island cotton," and the rich dark loam of Long Island, N. Y., to the bleak rocks and barren sands of Mt. Desert, and the aijid isles on the coast of California. Inter Ocean. DIDN'T KNOW OF ANXr. A passenger on a certain road running out of Buffalo failed to find a parlor-car on the train, the .-m jking-car was occupied by immigrants, and tho train was two hours late. He had discovered all this when some one added that he would have to rido nine hours before getting anything to eat. When the conductor came along, the passenger growled out : "Is there a meaner raibroad than this in America?" "My dear fellow, I cant't say as to that," kindly replied the official, "but if there is one with more mortgages on it, I'd like to hear it located!" Wall Street Neivg.
