able Iraiirtfonnutioii hiuco liobcrt lion
din, tho father of all modern magic, lived
In I 'aria lialf a century ago. Perhaps no
ono could compare with him in celebrity,
excepting tho original Herrmann, who
died at C'arLibnd n couplo of years ago,
and from whom tho Herrmann who ut
present Jerambulatc3 America took his
liamo and learned what ho known. Tho
present Herrmann was known a3 Neu
man, and wua an asi.-tunt to hU greater
prototype. IIo wasalwaya remarkablo
for ono tiling, and that ij hid very great
dexterity- ia bh-ight of hand trickn. To
day thero is iiolody tliat can couiparo
with him in this lino of work, what is
known as palming. In fact anything
that can bo done with tho hands alone,
excepting a deaf muto who travels
through tiio cheafier museums, and who
Is said to have even far greater ability in
this line, but without tho gift of express
ing himself.
THE FLYIXO BIHD CAGE.
Herrmann, however, has never been
an Inventor. IIo finds his tricks ready
mado for him abroad and buys their se
cret. As a result ho is Compelled to
travel around with a va-st paraphernalia
that tho old magicians would have looked
upon with great contempt. In fact, tho
tendency of mod -rn magic has been tho
elaboration of tho cumbersome, and
Herrmann needs a wholo roomful of fur
plturo to carry out ono of his illusions.
The Lrightest mind in magic at tho
present day is a prestidigitateur named
Do Kolta. Ho holds forth in Paris, and,
being almost a gentleman of leisure, only
apiearj alout threo uiglits a week. IIo
lias mado all tho most imjwrtantof mod
ern inventions in magic. Tho one that
brought bini first into prominence in the
lino of invention v.13 tho flying bird
cage, which is now ho familiar that it
can bo bought i:i magic stores for a few
dollars, but it made a great sensation at
tho time. Kollar was tho first to buy it
from IX) Kolta, anil took tho trick to
Australia, whero ho mado somo $20,000
out of it. IIo only paid $-00.
Two or threo seasons ago in Now York
tho Vanbhing Lady was accepted as a
very remarkablo nove lty. This was also
ail invention of Do Kolta's. During tho
past year another of his inventions, tho
Ctxroon, Las been given in Aow ork
both by Kellar and by Herrmann.
put tho ono that is now most familiar
and surprising Pj Kolta first brought out
two rears ngo. Wo havo seen it with
Herrmann under tho name of Jilack Art,
and with Kellar under tho namo of Oii
entaJ Occultism. The trick is precisely
tho samo with then) both, and is merely
an illiion of blackness. The wholo
stag is dr.;ped ia tho blackest of black;
tho magician, be it Kellar or Herrmann,
U completely robed ia white, so that ho
stands out clearly in tho gloom surround
ing him. Then ho orders various objects
to nppcer, a cup, a sword, a tablo, a
chair.
ilAGIC 13 WAXING.
Theso hings seem to suddenly start
into being, W.nd yet tho device is of tho
simplest. TJ.n objects ia question are
concealed behind a black cloth until tho
order for them to appear js suddenly
given. Tho cloth concealing them js
dropped, and they seem to havo como
out of chaos. In tho eamo manner Mrs.
Ilcrrniaiui or llrs. Kellar stands on the
stage draped in white, but holding up a
black clotli between herself and tho au
dience. At tho word of tho magician sho
drops tho cloth and stands revealed. T
the uninitiated tho trick is most puzzling.
It is tho same way that the head de
tached from the trunk appears to bo car
ried around tho stage. Tho illusion is
that tho trunk is closed in black, and
standing against tho blackness of th
scene, cannot Ihj distinguished; the head
being white, alone appears. This is per
haps iho cleverest of all Do Kolta's in
ventions. Of mechanical tricks Maskelyne, ol
London, and ICe'lar are tho most noted
inventors. Psycho, or tho liand that taps
on a glass tablo in responso to the ma
gician's command, is an Invcnlipn of
Kellar, and is simply a piece of very deli
cate and intricate machinery. It is very
similar to the Clio of Jlaskclyne, and
belli have a family resemblance to Kel
lar's chess board, originally fn vented by
Maskelyne. Magicians generally givo
the palm to Kellar for all tricks of a
mathematical kind. He has a uiarvel
oualy quick mind in this respect, and
the most abstruse problems he can solve
in a few seconds apparently, ol course,
allowing it I J bo done by somo inechani
cal figure.
Whether all this conies within tho e
act domain of magic does cot so much
matter as that such tricks are nosv ac
cepted in magical entertainments and
vastly more enjoyed than tho old pistol,
card and rabbit tricks to which 6omo
magicians still adhere tricks that neces
sitate the use of a confederate, and
which are, therefore, of little account
and at which even locals laugh.
Tho future of magic is liard to fore
tell, Everything in the sleight-of-hand
way has become familiar, and outside of
De Kolta thero is no 'inventor cf any
thing new. Tho result is that reocnt
prestidigitateurs, such us Herrmann, arc
compelled to add to their own come 6ort
of variety entertainment to fill out the
evening. Even Kellar had to go back tc
tho old Indian basket trick for a ho vejty.

THE SOCIETY WOMAN OF TODAY.
IIiom Tlnjt Are Sought After Are Not tli
Ctrl, but Women of SO or Over.
"Tho buds," says Ilustan, "aro a nine
days wonder, and are much talked of for
that space of time, but it is the women
o;it 120 who aro the most interesting in
America. They seem to havo tho gift of
t-ti rnal youth, and nt 60 aro more agree
able looking than tho women of any
other country.
IJustarf s observation will surprise a.
plo whoso soTo knowledge of fiushionablb
society is derived from tho chroniclers of
a quarter or half century back; but to
tho onlooker, as well as to tho forei
traveler, it is patent that there is a great
physical change in the American society
woman as exemplified in New York.
They hold their age in an astonishing
and unprecedented manner and seem
not to attain tho .cuith of their Ix-mity
till a ioiiit lx-'yond which they nro hopo-h-ssly
passe. Men say that the women
of today are at 8j no older than they
formerly were at 2o, and that thero is a
corresponding difference all along the
line; that consequently they dress young
er without incongruity, and that beyond
and alove all this they have learned to
grow old with grace, which means that
they havo at least reeognized that it is
futile to sham youth and havo set them
selves to develop wit, style and other at
tributes which are permanent and niav
grow instead of lessen with time.
In the time of our mothers and grand
mothers, if tho society chroniclers are a
guide, a woman was considered old after
25. If she did not marry in her first
season she was called a "relic" and made
to feel in the way. And there was some
reason for the raillery.
I'ctween then and now two things have
hapiened. Health has liecomo the fash
ion and is sought for passionately and
successfully. Clear skins, natural color,
firm muscles, bright eyes and elastic
steps are now the order of the day, and
a woman who was once as transient as
snow has become as jiermanent as her
husband. That pretension to ycuthful-
ness is not now tho common weakness is
evidenced by tho fact that tho humorous
pajiers, which once found this the most
fruitful subject for jests, havo turned
their attention to other foibles. With
this change men's taste regarding women
seems to have altered somewhat.
Where once he admired the beauty of
youth alono and was satisfied with dumb
response to emotion, ho now demands a
great deal more. The woman of today
must make herself agreeable, not p.is
sively, but actively; she must bo brilliant
and witty, possessed of tact and able to
entertain; must have the art of dressing,
the knowledge of men, the art of flatter
ing, must be, in short, a woman of the
world with the liberal education which
tliat implies. Tho day of tho doll has
passed away; the debutante is in no
flurry to get married, and tho yearling
pasture is not the wife market it was.
It might be supjosed that women who
keep up a continuous round of dinners,
operas and balls would look dragged out
and weary and old before their time, but
jn reality they are in the most splendid
physical condition. They are up. it is
true, till the small hours of the morning,
drinking champagne, dancing, convers
ing and flirting, but this is their sole oc
cupation, and it does not begin before 4
o'clock in tho afternoon. The remainder
of their time is spent in the pursuit of
health. After a noon breakfast they
drive, twice a week, to the Turkish
baths, and are steamed, pounded, plung
ed and showered, shampooed and mani
cured, and turned out as if new made
from the hand of God. No other crea
ture, unless it be thoroughbred rr.cers,
have such euro grjven to their bodies as
these women whose business js society.
Whatever science and art hae discov
ered and invented, or nature allotted, to
give health and beauty, is commanded
by them, until it is now beginning to be
said, curiously, tliat the women ra-e out
lasting the men.
The society woman depends greatly on
luxurious bathing to renew herctrength.
The Turkish bath must be taken outside
the homo, but the bathrooms ia some of
the wealthy houses give evidence by
their costliness and beauty of tho part
they play in the daily economy. New

lie Prompt in Appointments
The Manufacturer's Gazetto thinks
there is nothing more damaging to a
business than to be found wanting in the
matter of promptness in filling orders.
A great many firms will promiso to have
an order at a certain time, when they
are confident in their own minds that it
will be almost an utter impossibility to
do so. This is done to secure the orders,
but cannot fail of a damaging effect in
the future. It is just as important that
an order be tilled at the time agreeu r.s
that any other engagement or appoint
ment be kept. The man who arranges
for a meeting with another r.t a certain
time is expected Jo be on time. In these
days of great enterprise aud. I.'??';h, every
business man has his time fuliy taker
and promptness in keeping tui appoint
ment is on important matter to him
Just so it is in filling prdor.?. Prompt
ness is as much to tho credit . f a eoucern
as is the quality of tho work or the mate
rial used.
The Prescription.
There was, some time ac, a doctor
whose morning levees were crowded be

boast that he could feel bis patient s
pulse, look at his tongue, pro-be at him
with his stethoscope, write Lis prescrip

varying from two to five minutes. One
day an army man was shown into the
consulting room, tind underwent what
may be called the instantaneous process.

Tho world will not ask whether you havo

and the only way that you can satisfy it on
thai point is to Uo something that coucla

S'nerior physical strength is no longer at

whuu there was so good a market for brains,

who attempts to hoodwink it is bound to

above all things, originality. It will bo sat

decree of excellence, in scholarship, iu rao
chrtiiical pursuits, in business, iu literature
and in each of the several professions.
GOOD MATERIAL IN DEHAXD.
But there never was a time when tho world
was willing to ay such high prices as it will
pay today tor what it needs. 1 know law
yers, doctors ar.u cuitors wun incomes or
from 5,000 to 5 )0,000 a year; but they aro
few, and they are worth every dollar that
they get. Popular preachers command sal
aries that mako an average lawyer's mouth

get $10,000 for a single story of oOO pages, and
our leading magazines havo paid popular

collego graduates apply in vain every month
for situations on uuw&papers, but let ono of
them write but ten, lines or even a head lino

The man who wrote Wanaraaker's advertise
ments a few years ego was paid 512,000 a

write equally good advertisements can easily
get as good a salary to-morrow.
But whatever line of intellectual work you
may resoia to do or whatever profession yon
may adopt, remember that tL 6scret of suc
cess consists in doing thoroughly whatever
you attempt, and in doing it better than any
one else has ever done it. No man ever suc
ceeded greatly iq business, or olitics, or hb
erature, in law, cr medicine, or preaching, in
any other way. Genius is tho happy faculty
of selecting the particular kind of work for
which one is specially lilted; of doing only
that which ono can do best, and doing it tc
the utmost measure of one's ability. Thero
is no such thing as genius which can accom- I
plisn great results without work. Tba story
of it is a fairy tak, which self cencclt telL
cs an apology for indolence and incapacity.
Believe me, tho world is not waiting for
your graduation to crown you with laurel
wreaths, or to lay the treasures of fortune at
your feet. Whatever measure of success you
may achieve must be won by patient toil and
pre-eminent merit.
The only person whom tUis age has no

A vierUon of Madame ly.mza.
I was pained to bco in u recent i.ssua of
Onio a Week an artiel by the Uunpiiso

moral element in tho character of men
and women, idid presented for our con
sideration E-ich low and unworthy

posses to flatter, cajole and deceive tho

makes women out to bo. I pas over her
'werlion that wohkmi an fa Jomated by
iH -re brtito strength. I Visibly some of
them are; but it i:i no credit to them.
Yet what I wish especially to protest
against ij tho calm assumption on the
part of the writer that all women ignore
tho (pieotiou character in a man. "The,
wriest KcoundreU" she Bays, "that ever
drew breath is apt to bo u thousand fold
more magnetic than ho who, having
marked out an ethical path for himself,
proceed. religiously to follow it. Ail
women like insinuating manners." And
anin: "A man who desires to please a

There you have it all. All women aro
either fooi.s or wor.se; and in order to
gain their attention men need only be
outwardly charming. Lying and deceit
will not only not hurt them in tho esti
mation of tho poor fools whom they wLsh
to ensnare, bat will actually help them.
Aa for tho rest, they may be as dissolute
and immoral as they please; women will
still be fascinated by them, so long as
they are dissolute in a charming way.
Now, I ask in all beriousness, u that
tho highest outlook of our age on this
great question of the relatives relations
of men and women? After all these ages
of moral conflict, after all tha teachings
of Christianity, nay, after all tho prog
ress made by humanity in intelligence
and morality, is that wretched and re
pulsive bit of boulevard cynicism ail we
have to show? I will not believe it. I
deny that all women aro e j mindless, bo
vain, bo utterly unable to appreciate or
understand moral gooelness and purity
as t'lij writer makes them out to be. I
submit that Mme. Lanza speaks only for
the fashionable idlers of both sexes who
in our great cities audaciously assume to
bo tho wholo of good society. In reality,
they are only the unhealthy and artifi
cial scum that float3 on the surfaco of
tha great stream of human life. In
thousands of happy homes in this city
today, among both tho lofty and the
lowly, men and women are to be fountl
who would repel with indignant scorn
such a low and cynical view of our so
cial lift. Thank God there is such a
thing yet among us as a love of good
ness, and truth, and virtue in spito of
our society cynics, and club roues, and
miasmatic erotic novelists. The women
cf this fair land aro not yet so silly and
vain as Mme. Lan;:a considers them to
bo. With an exception here and there
they aro attracted by purity of life and
nobility of soul in a man, and repelled
by the rouo and tho bar, however
"charming" their manners may be. A
