— St EP ee,
The divided? pompadour is considered ' avery becoming style, and, with the’! soft rolls of waved hair on either side, is a pleasing fashion for those whose faces it suits,
There is a steady demand ‘for hosiery with black ankles and feet and colered tops. The hose are for the most part ribbed, and some of them have open- worked stripes.
Black and white is extremely fashion- able, and some of the black and white brocades are exquisitely beautiful. Made up With alarge mass of ‘white satin, they are the most elegant of dresses.
One of the most elegant opera cloaks is made of moire. brocade. It is in blae and gray and is lined with gray satin, With an interlining of eider flanncl. It has a collar, cape edging and bands down the front of gray fox fars.
Perfectly straight plaits down the fronts of dress waists are becoming tc bet very few people. There is always a much more satisfactory effect if the plait is s!ightly gathered or drawn in. It narrows the front and makes more graceful lines.
Green snd white is a popular combi nation. A waist of green corduroy and white satin has been much admired. The body and sleeves are of corduroy. The front, a very wide collar and the shoulder ruffles are of satin, all lined With cordurey.—New York Ledger.

FANNY KEMBLE.
A Reminiscence of the Famers Actress Who Hated All Men.
As one looks back over a period of 10 or 12 years on the people who have crossed one’s path in that time, what a strangely copfused mass ef images appears! Some are of absorbing interest, others very wuch the reverse, but all alike, from sheer force of numbers, are blurred and indis- tinct. Tonight some of these passing fig- ures have disentangled themselves from the crowdand become clearand vivid. Let me try to photograph them—it will only be a snapshot—before they fade into the mists again.
First I see a small and somewhat fleree |
old lady of a wonderfully dignified pres- ence.
in the.Alps. Ican hear the waterfall be-
hind % now and the tinkling of the cow- |
bells and distinctly remember my fright on being presented to the aforesaid old la- dy by the kind hostess with whom both she and I were staying in these words: “Mr. Kemble, this young woman is a great friend of mine.”’
A pair of piercing eyes scanned my face,
| @nd there was a terrible pause before a | ‘deep, tragic voice made the embarrassing
reply, ‘‘Is she a good young woman”’ It was somewhat difficult to call up the
| ight expression at such short notice, but '
I looked as good as I could, and something else fortunately distracting her attention my morals were not further gome into on that occasion.
There was something regal, something of the stage queen, in Fanny Kemble’s ap- pearance, and her entrance into the table d'hote room of an evening might, from its ceremonious dignity, have been that of a aovereign into the throneroom. How she terrified us all, and how she snubbed us all in turn, especially the old gentlemen of the party, until not one of them could be got to sit next her at table! She hated all men, we were told, fer the sake of the husband she had separated from long ago. Any of the small courtesies of society of- fered by them were resented as insults, and well do I recollect one of the most courteous of men saying to her one night at dinner, ‘‘Do you think, Mrs. Kemble, that we could get up arubber of whist this evening?’’ and her cutting reply across the table, ‘‘I don’t know if you can; I can’t.’”
She had a great famey for bilberries and complained that we syoung people never thought it worth while to bring in any
fruit except Alpine strawberries, so my |
brother and I, wishing to give the old la- dy a treat, gathered great basketful an& presented them te her. Unfortunately she was not in a good mood that day, and we
were well snubbed forour pains. Poar |
Fanny Kemble! The troubles of life had imbittered her, bat there was much that was lovable when she let her better natarre have play, and I can recall unexpected softness at parting which gave a glimpse of the kind feeling within. She may have
been pretty asa poung woman, but there |
was mo trece of beauty when I met her,
thoygk the remains of considerable grace |
of manner und gesture.—Chambers’ Jour- nal. The Pig Was Stolen. Whether ‘‘a lie well told and stuck:to
afterward is as good as the truth’’ wasde- |
bated at the dinner table where 4 man was sitting one day, and it brought out the following story from a rather dyspeptic looking man, who had eaten very spar- ingly:
**] used to live in the country,” said he. “One of my neighbors, an unlucky, un- thrifty sort of .a man, killed a pig oneway with the aid of a docal butcher. “By jinks, Sam, f hate to cnt up that pig.’ ‘Why? * "Cause, you see, J’m owin most every body here a picce of pork, and if I eut up the pig I'M.have to give most of him away.’ ‘I tell you what tedo,’ said the butcher. ‘What's that?’ ‘iid have the pig hung up cutdoors till 12 o'%elock at night, then take him in aad giveawt the next morning that he’s been stolen.’ ‘By jinks, I'l) do it.’
“Té was a wenderfully fine plan, the farmer thenght, ani he left the pig hang. iug out, as the butcher suggested
‘“*At 11 o'clock the butcher himeclf came along and packed the pork inte his cart. Iii was not there when the farmer went out after it.
“The next day, with a long face, he ad- ! dressed the butchersin a hoarse whisper: |
‘l say, Sam, somebody did really steal that.’ ‘That’s right,’ said the butcher, nudging him and winking wickediy at the same time. ‘But, by jinks, the pig was really stolen.’ ‘That‘e right. You utick to that and you'll be.all right,’ ssid the butcher encouragingly, and he hurried off, leaving his fricnd in:a most bewildered stute of mind, from which I don’t think he ever fully emerged’ ”*’~P-arson’s Week- dy.

There is no ambitien nobler than that of the hardworking farmer. He toils early and late to secure for himself and his family that most lasting of fortunes, an allotment Of land, clear of indebtedness. No other fortune is so secure and permanent. There are in England families of small farmers, living in assured comfort and contentment, tupon the lands acquired by their forefathers 800 years ago.
The achievement of the farmer’s ambition depends a great deal upon the good health of himself and his family. If they suffer from biliows attacks and indigesticn and do mot promptiy resort to the right remedy, almost any known sickness may be the re- sult. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov- ery is a speedy eure for biliousness, indi- gestion and the evils that followthem. It makes the liver active, the digestion per- fect, the appetite keen and the blood pure, and builds healthy flesh and muscle. An honest druggist won’t urge upon you a sub- stitute.
“TI send you my most sincere thanks for the
benefit I have received from your medicine,” writes Edward B. O'Neill, Esq, of No. 24 Swan St., Cleveland, Ghio. “I hope you will publish the same as it may benefit some other poor suf- ferer who is troubled in a like manner. I was laid up with lumbago or sciatic rheumatism. I could only walk with help of two sticks for nine weeks. I tried several remedies and doctored with some of our best physicians and was not getting relief. Sa I tried Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. After using two bottles of it I was all right.” _ Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Ad- viser teaches you all about the horme-treat- ment of diseases. It contains 1,008 pages and 300 illustrations. It used to cost $1.50; now it’s FREE. For paper-cover, send 31 one-cent stamps, to cover customs and mailing; cleth-cover, so stamps. Addrese, Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.

sged to d:ag himself along, and finally reached Bennett. The strange part of the story, however, is that the United States cificials when informed ofall! the
circumstances refused to arrest the robbers.
