WATCH FOR SOMETHING NEW ,
M. WORTH , the great and only Worth ,
has tired of making dresses in the very
highest style of the art for people who
never pay. He has therefore issued a
list of these persons. They arc divided
into three classes . those who absolutely
cannot pay , those who order dresses out
of vanity when they are unable to pay
for them and those who can pay hut will
not. The list as issued contains nearly
two thousand names princesses , duch-
eses , countesses , priuia donnas and
actresses.
This is a rather discouraging proced
ure and will be likely to decrease the
almost fabulous number of Worth dress
es boasted of in feminine circles each
year. Vanity has led many thousands
of women to order dresses from M.
Worth simply because he was the rag
and because many thousands of other
women who could not afford a Worth
costume , even if they did not pay for
it , might be put down by being shown
to be out of the fashion something far
worse than being out of the world.
Tt is only natural that 31. Worth
should want a little money along with
the fame which comes to him as the
great man milliner. Hence this edict
and the list of delinquents. How many
American brides figure among the dis
owned the cable does not say. How
many wives and daughters of supposed
millionaires are thus posted cannot be
known until the full and official list is
published. But whoever shall appear
in it , nothingis clearer than that the mil
liner bills must be paid in the future.
If this practice spreads among small
dressmakers and in distant regions ,
wherewithal shall the impecunous wo
man be clad ? Herald.
A MONSTROUS movable globe has been
constructed by a blind Frenchman , a
clock maker , who has devoted his entire
time for the past seventeen years in per
fecting the work. The accounts given
relate that this enormous sphere repre
sents the earth , and , like it , turns on its
own axis by means of mechanism ; an
artificial moon moves around the globe
n 28 days and G hour ? , while a mova-
) le metal band on which the hours arc
marked , indicates the mean time in dif-
erent parts of the earth. Round the
upper portion of this immense globe ,
vhich weighs a ton and a half , and
whose surface measures 12G feet in di
ameter , spins a railroad car capable of
lolding six persons , and which serves to
; ive a better view of the regions of the
north pole. The painting of the globe
s done in oil , and necessitated the cm-
) loymcnt of two men during the entire
year. The sun is represented by an ap-
Kiratus lighted by an intense Drum-
mond calcium light , which enables the
spectator to watch intelligently the or-
gin and change of the different periods
of the day , the early dawn , the twilight
eclipses of the sun and moon , etc.
JUDGE COOKE , of Florida , pays the
"ollowing beautiful tribute to the ballot
> ox and its sanctity : tIt is the ark of
he American Covenant. The law is in
t and the fate of the nation ; the virtue ,
he moral and social rights of a free
leople , the physical prosperity and
Christian existence of the American
leople as a nation , rest upon its purity
ind preservation. Like the ancient Ark
of the Covenant , it should be touched
with only pure hands. Therein is our
national grandeur and happiness , as well
as perennial prosperity , in our social ,
ndividual and national relations to all
ve hold dear , and which , as a free and
ever favored liberty-loving nation , and
hrough the wise.prudent , just and hon-
st use of which we can onlpreserve
and protect that libeity which will con-
inue to guarantee unto us such pros-
> erity as we have enjoyed. " '
IT was at the baptismal fount , and the
minister had the baby in his arms.
"What is the name ? " he asked of the
maiden aunt , who was to be the god
mother. "Josephine Newton. " "Jos
eph E. Xewton , I baptise thee " "Xo }
nohurriedly whispered the aunt in
great alarm. "Xot Joseph E. Newton
Josephine Newton. It's not that kind
of a baby. ' '
