Jfirror * In Illustrations.
There sometimes seems reason for a
complaint common among nnthms that
artists do not read the text they are to
illustrate. In ouo of the leading maga
zines recently the writer mentioned the
fuct that her heroine was entirely bald
a circumstance , indeed , that might
have been deduced from the fuct that
she was nearly 100 years old.
Picture the author's disgust when the
old woman was represented with n head
of hair that might have served for the
advertisement of some wonderful "re
storative. "
Even worse seems the fate of zui un
happy writer who wrote a story about
a boy named Patsy. The artist meta
morphosed him into u girl.
| The readers of a recent novel were
I puzzled by a statement which it seemed
j impossible to reconcile with facts. The
I text represented a devoted' baud of sol
diers scaling well nigh perpendicular
I cliffs , urging their jaded horses for
ward. The explanation was that the
artist had represented the gallant baud
as mounted. The author had depicted
them on foot. When attention was
called to this discrepancy , the easiest
way out of the difficulty appeared to be
to insert the few words as above , which
was accordingly done without heed to
the context.
Mr. James Payu relates a similar
story of his tale , "APerfect Treasure. "
The plot was taken from the story of
the Nancy diamond. The jewel was in
trusted after the battle to a faithful
servant , who fell among thieves and to
secure its safety swallowed it. It is
probable that no family retainer has
ever been regarded with such solicitude
for the quarter of a century as ho was.
The work was brought out with a
picture by Sir John PJillais , the wood
cut of which happened to bo in the pub
lisher's possession and which seemed to
him to illustrate the subject , "A Per
fect Treasure , " for it was a little baby
in its mother's arms. Youth's Com
panion.
Long : IJcarda.
Perhaps the best known beard in the
United States is that of ex-Senator Pef-
fer of Kansas , which was said to meas
ure three feet long , but there are many
which exceed that iu size. The muse
ums frequently contain men 5 feet
and over whose beards sweep the floor
when they stand up , but perhaps the
longest of all is that of Legrand Larow
of Lainar , Mo. , which is said to exceed
any other in the world. It is seven
feet in length and has measured 73
feet. Mr. Larow was born in Tompkins
county , New York , in J&52 , and his rel
atives are noted for heavy beards , bat
not extraordinary length. Ho is G feet
in height and weighs 175 pounds. When
standing with his beard down , it ex
tends two feet upon the floor. Ho has
not shaved for over 20 years. In the
year 1877 Mr. Larow went west and
was a farmer and stock raiser for many
years. He wears his beard braided and
wound around his body or else wrapped
and lodged inside his vest. Boston

An Odd Sign.
Nearly everybody has heard of the
"catch sign" of the dyer , to the effecb
that ha "dyes to live and lives to dye. "
There are probably half a dozen or more
dyers in this city who have that sign
conspicuously displayed at their estab
lishments. There has been a sudden re
vival in the use of catchy signs , partic
ularly rhymed ones , among bootblacks
and small sidewalk merchants. These
signs are now springing up everywhere ,
and a couple of young newsboys with
some facility for making doggerel are
picking up many a half dollar for work
of this kind among their fellows. The
fever has even reached Frankford , ana
an odd old character there has this pla
card outside his humble establishment :

And All Kinds of Rags.

Woman's Voice.
In arguing the point , giving instruc
tions to her better half , teaching the
young idea how to shoot , asserting her
rights , retailing gossip , saying good by
and negotiating bargains it has been
calculated that a woman's tongue tra
vels 5,643,450 yards 18 inches in the
course of an ordiuary lifetime of three
score years and ten.
These figures are something appalling
and will be apt to make the ordinary
young man hesitate before entering the
holy bonds of matrimony.
Yet how empty and silent the world
would be without a woman's voice !

Feminine Generalship.
On one occasion the noted British
officer Tarletoii was speaking contempt
uously of Colonel William Washington
to a patriot lady. "Why , " said Tarle-
tou , "they tell me ho is so ignorant that
he cannot even write his name. " With
a meaning glance at Tarletou's right
hand , which Washington had wounded ,
the lady replied , "But nobody is better
aware than you , Colonel Tarletou , that
Colonel Washington knows how to
make his mark. "
