The 2fewet Walk. Some girls can't catch on to the fashionable walk. Why, girls, that's easily done, when yon know how. Just walk along slow and lazy like; givealittlo shove to the right and left at each step; act as if yon had no elasticity in your step, as if each foot were held, hack by stiff mod and the wind was kind of blowing yon back at each step, and yon have got it. Newport Journal. The Supremacy of Woman. A religions agitation has struck Finland which has for its object the 'Supremacy of women over men. The new religionists call themselves "Pure by excellence, w and in every house where the new doctrines are practiced a woman elected by her companions, is invested with a sort of directing power, which gives her the right to inflict penance and even rigorous chastisement. The new creed requires that all its disciples shall confess their sins to certain women at-least once a week. Woman's eights women everywhere will be delighted with this Finland movement, and it will be interesting to see how it pans out." Thinking Aloud. T One of our churches has a somewhat eccentric parishioner, who often affords the congregation much amusement, fie has a habit of expressing his thoughts aloud when very much in saraest, never mind where he may be. - " uuLuuouiuuaucoa ux na luiic thought aloud is irresistibly funny. Last Sunday a late comer at churcha Tonnjr lady with voluminous, skirtssought to pass him to get a seat. As she did so she carried the gentleman's hat, which was on the floor, some distance. It happened during a pause in the service, when there' came, slowly and distinctly, and with an- earnestness worthy of the preacher, that unconscious ejaculation : "Now where in the name of the -Lord is that girl -taking -my hat?" Newport letter. Making Herself Contpiemoui to Aroid Being S. I took the liberty, one 'afternoon at Saratoga, of saying to a lady that I am Intimately acquainted with, that it must be a great bore to be constantly donning and doffing her gowns. She admitted that it was even more so than men suspected, and added: "X hate it cordially." - ' "May I ask, then, why you do it?" "Simply because I do not wish to be conspicuous. You do not understand ibis? If I should wear the same gown all day, or wear only two or three, I should attract attention from my own sex? who would speculate about ' the cause and comment on my peculiarity. I feel obliged to make myself appear conspicuous to avoid being so. We women are all tyranized over by conventionality and custom, and by one another. You men are ever jibing at os, because you judge us by rules and remain ignorant of our individuality. Cor. Chicago Tribune. American Women No Weakly. American women may not be as robust as those of other countries; they usually are much slighter in build. But strength is not always to the stout, no more than the race is always to the swift. They have vigorous, wiry constitutions, capable of almost any amount of endurance. It is a false and unwarranted assumption to represent them as a nation of weaklings. Take theuvoung women In any of our colleges, surely are representative groups, gathered from all directions, and it is the exception to , find among them 'one who is weakly. The majority of tiem will be Blender and delicate-looking, but, at the same time, their actual physical condition is that of almost perfect health, boundless vigor and fatality. And among older women much the tame thing is true, though not so generally. Debility and sickness will be found much oftener among thtm, but not often enough to warrant the frequently-expressed opinion that $he American woman is sick. On the con

trary, the American woman is an exceptionally strong and vigorous specimen of the feminine sex, and all these mournful and pitying sentiments that have passed current as truth for so long, just because they have been so often repeated, are entirely mistaken and uncalled for.

Hair Cure. A lively old lady, who died far advanced in her 80's, and was proud in extreme old age of her beautiful dark hair, was accustomed, when a girl, to hang up her. night cap every morning killed with salt. This was shaken out into a japanned dressing box every night on retiring, but enough salt remained clinging to the cambric to secure, as she thought, the remarkable preservation of her hair. Dr. Holmes has sung or gossiped about "the widening part," which ia one of the telling tracks of passing years; but until lately the prevailing fashion of dressing the hair did not make any parting to show. Those who wear the hair in true classic style, with the pure white line from brow to crown, may find soma use in the following recommendation of the New York Evening Post for strengthening the hair and renewing thin spots : "To a quart of warm water allow one table-spoonful of salt, and just before retiring wet the head thoroughly with this, not along the widening seam alone, but the entire head. Bepeat this operation one or two nights each week until good effects are apparent." It is likely that the vigorous rubbing which this treatment makes necessary afterward is of as much use to the hair as the saline treatment. Girls' Care of Shoes. The secret of keeping shoes in good repair is to have two or more pair at one time, and the habit of stacking the off shoes in a slipper-case or shoe-box away from the dust. Young ladies who come in with sloppy feet and shoes in a shocking condition, then kicking them off under the bed or the wardrobe, surely need not expect that some goodnatured genius will carefully gather them up, polish and place under the favorite easy-chair for the next day's occasion. Patent-leather or glove-kid shoes cannot be too daintily cared for, and will last twice as long when cleaned at once, as dampness, mud and dust rot and generally demoralize them. Not long ago a young man called in a great hurry to take his steady-company girl out in a friend's dog-cart, which he had borrowed for an hour, but she had to decline, because her shoes were ankle deep in mud and she had no time to redress them. She was ashamed to admit this sad state of affairs and pleaded a sudden headache. "Oh, never mind your head, Miss Julia," said the young man, impatiently. "The park is looking lovely; it will cure your headache, I know." "Not when it's just splitting in this way, Frank ; no, I can't go ; aw ful sorry." "Isn't that just too mean for anything? Well, 111' bet I don't let it happen again," she remarked, in a slangy way girls have gotten into of late. It is all very well for the queenly young heroine in romance, whose shoes are always at their best, of course; but in real, hard, every-day life, most girls are flesh and blood, beings full of fault and a trick of running their shoes down at,theheeL Sometimes it is next tc impossible to imagine some real flesh and blood girls less than angels, they are so sweet, modes$, gracious and fairly brimming over with the traits of the book heroine. But to see them at home in the morning, scolding everybody, and making bran paste of the baby's cream, to smooth their complexions, and wearing greasy calico gowns, slit up the back, and a disreputable pair of carpet slippers, is to knock one out in the first round. Luckily the steady-company young man can by no miserable, mischance ever break in on this inside picture. All the varnish and veneering must be laid on thickly by the time his ring is heard at the door, and his pretty, timid sweetheart looks too mild to have ever said boo ! to a goose. This is the, way modern girls hare St. Louis Republican. SOUTH AFRICAN DIAMONDS. A large proportion of the diamonds which have constituted the stock of trade since 1870 have come from South Africa. Brazil and Ceylon supply limited quantities of extremely-fine stones. The South Africa yield is not confined, according to general impression, to medium and low grades. The product cf the Kimberly mines, which occupy one and a quarter square miles, with those of neighboring mines, Jare worked by a number of companies, with an aggregate capital of $32,000,000, controlled by London, French Jand Dutch syndicates whose buyers are on the 8pt, and whose prices at times greatly differ,-New xoric nun. "What's a woman's sphere?" To be mathematically correct, we suppose woman's sphere is always being near Xhen you want her, and sometimes when you don't want her.

PLEASANTRIES.

From the Burlington Hawkeye. "Why should people sometimes marry in haste ?" asked young Harry, looking up from his book. "Oh," replied old Harry, "because time and tide wait for no man, and if they waited for any woman they would never get there." About one-half of the 30,000 Christian Indians in the United States are Baptists. When an Indian seeks religion he should be gathered into the Baptist fold if possible. No other denomination will give him the washing he so sorely needs. From Carl Pretzel's Weekly.! To make a head-light Mix whisky with beer. Woman is a conundrum Man can't guess it, and don't want to give it Up. They like to wrestle with it. Emma Abbott's husband is getting quite a singer. Emma can only get up to C, and says Mr. Emma can get up to T a dozen times in one night, and have trouble. "Mamma, If Adam had not been bo bold, And Eve not qui to so 'fly, Would we be having pic-nics all the while, And a-living awful high?" "My child, it's hnrd to ten what would've been If there had been no fall. But though the chances are ten to one. We would not be here at all!" "Flossik, just pass your hand over the top of my head and see how soft and silky it is," said a conceited lover to the "gyurl he wanted to mahwy, some day, yaw knaw !" A Philadelphia dentist makes you a set of store teeth and lets you take them home on ten days' trial. It's an Ungrateful customer that will go baok on his own teeth. How mean that would be. "How childer than a serpent's sharp it is to have a toothless thank." A Dayton (Ohio) man writes to the papers that his t child "had fifty fits in twenty-four hours," and is now well, hearty and rugged. Oh, well, we should think it very likely. A child that has made a record of fifty-two fits in twenty-four hours ought to be tough enough to board all the year ground. The Asiatic cholera would balk at that infant. Emma Sorry to inform you that the chances for young ladies to enter lawyers' offices as copyists, and from there work up to admittance to the bar and a good practice, are rather limited at present. You might, however, enter an attorney's office in the basement as jauitress, and from there "work up" to the top floor with a scrubbing brush, soap and a pail of water ! There isn' a sardine on this side of the Atlantic ocean, and yet there are three big sardine factoriesin full blast on the coast of Maine. Now, how do you make that out? Easy enough, "easy as lying," in fact. One swallow does not make a summer, all that glistens is not gold, and that which we call a sardine would be a her-ring, had had he been allowed to swim a year or two longer. A descendant of one of the Philadelphia families lives in Lock Haven, Pa., at the age of 90 years, in poverty, on the charity of neighbors. She is a widow a Mrs. Roan. Yet she is of noble birth. Not so "dummed" noble, but just noble. Her paternal grandfather was a French nobleman. Her aunt was a Miss Shippen, of Philadelphia. And the only trouble with Widow Boan's family tree is that her aunt married a man named Benedict Arnold. That evening his "dovey" had . just received her seal wraps from .the furrier's (where they had been kept for the summer), and while she was opening them in the parlor he perpetrated the following conundrum: He whispered low to his pet, 'Mid the mazy waltz : "I'm afraid you're a coquette So fair, but yet so false!" Then she in his ear did breathe, 'Mid whirl of the waltz: "Perhaps I'm just like your teeth So fair, but yet so false!' " TOO TF.NDEll, ALTOGETHER. An Austin parent was very anxious that his son should become a distinguished physician, but tiie boy kicked. "If you insist on it, pa, I am willing to become a distinguished veterinary surgeon, but Pll never undertake to cure people." "Why do you prefer to doctor animals?" "Because after they die under my treatment the relatives will never come around and reproach me for having destroyed those nearest and dearest to them." Texas Sitings, ALMOST A HINT. "How's yer coming on in your new place?" asked Uncle Mose of Gabe Snodgrass, who had recently accepted a position as porter in an Austin hardware store. "Ise not comin' on very fas', Uncle Mose. De bos tole me sumfing dis mornin', and ef he don't take it back he gwinter lose me, shuah yer born. " "What did he tole yer?" "He tole me ter consider myself discharged." Texas Sittings.
