Three ladles walked down the center
nlslo of the National theater Monday
nlRht, snys a Washlni;ton iaper. They
wore hats hats of a florid style of arch
itecture nnd covered with luxuriant
veiietatlon. Strong men shuddered and
firew pale with anxiety as to where
those hats would locate themselves,
nnd as the ladles slowly moved to the
front the feelings of the audience
vered upon the Rtormy nnd tumu
ltous. At last they were seated well
down toward tho orchestra, and at
least one hundred persons, those direct

Bhastly with despair. In o moment,
however, nimble Angers were at work,
and beforo the watchers could RUlp
down their first wild nnsulsh the hats
disappeared and three sleek, shnpely
and Inoffeuitve heads appeared In front
of them. Ho the fashion hns reached

A new standard of morality has been

CRADLE OF INDIAN BABIES.
Queer Hark In Which Fappooaai An
Nurteil and Transported.
When you go through nn Indian camp
you ran seo red and green sacks stand
lng against the sides of the tepes, enr
ried on the bneka of little girls by
mcnnR of a blanket which Is fastened
at the waist with a broad leather belt,
or being rocked to and fro by the wind
In the boughs of cottonwood trees.
Sometimes, If the camp Ih going on a
long Journey In search of gnmc or for
water, or to escape a war party, two of
these sacks are fnstcned together by
Btout strnps nnd swung over tho back
of n pony, one dangling on each side,
like the baskets on a pack mule. Hut
ns a rule the horses nre left for the men
and boys to ride, and the pappooscs
nre either cnrrled by tho girls or
pnekod nway on a "travolse," which Is
tho only wngon the Indians have, and
you will think It a very poor kind of a
wngon when you hear how It Ih made.
The larger "travolses" arc mnde of
two cottonwood branches, nnd tho
smaller ones of stout willow sticks.
The two poles are crossed about n quar
ter of tho distance from the small ends,
nnd held In place with strong cords of
buffalo sinew; a foot or so below the
Joining n mat Is fastened, reaching
from one pole to the other nnd llrm
enough to carry heavy burdens. The
frame of the mat Is one long willow
twig, which has to be soaked and
twisted In shape while wet, and the
mat Is Just n mesh of dimply woven
leathern straps.
It Is a strange sight to see a camp
packed and ready to take up the line
of march. One by one, In single file,
they start away the men, and boyH
over ir, on horseback leading the way;
then the women and dogs dragging the
"travolses," and last of all, girls with
pappooses on their backs, and little
half-naked boys running along In a Jog
trot, breaking line every now and then
to throw their balls or rob a bird's nest
half hidden lu the thick prnlrlc grass.
AMERICAN GIRL IS ALL RIO.HT.

There Is no basis whatever for tho
Idea that anything which Is worth sav
ing, and, least of all, the American girl,
who Is the "ripe, consummate llower"
of the beneficent forces which are roll
ing the world onward to the millennium,
says a writer to the Kansas City Star.
She Is a moru perfect creature every
way then she hns nt the beginning of
the century. She Is more lobust ns OT

product of n method of training which
educates her mind nnd pays respect to
her physical development. She Is not

claims, "to tho verge of Idealism."
She Is self-rcllan to a degree that was '
unknown to her grandmothers. A mill- ,
tltudo of activities which were former- ;
ly monopolized by men are now open
to her, and through the courageous (
assertions of her own powers. Sho In-,
vnUeH the professions, she masters the
Intricacies of business, and she fills
with prollt and satisfaction to herself
and society places without number for
which she was regarded wholly unfitted
a half century ago. She rides, she rows,
she skates, she swims, and her capa
bilities stop only at the throwing of
stones. It Is the ambition nnd desire
of tho American girl of to-day, ns It
hns been of women In till nges of the
world, to become the center of a do
mestic circle. There Is not one woman
In n thousand who would not prefer to
marry and enjoy thodcllghts of a happy
home rnther than battle with the world
or distinguish herself In some public
sphere. Hut the day has pussed yjen
women at least American women
find the full solution of their destiny,
though the homo Instinct Is ns strong
In them ns ever, and It has not been
diminished by a familiarity with pur
suits outside of the household. The
wives and mothers of to-day are Just
ns devoted to their husbands and chil
dren as were the wives und mothers of
fifty years ago. nnd they were Ameri
can girls before they became American
women. The American girl Is all right.
SHAKESPEARE'S MARRIED LIFE.
He I Nnlrl Merer to Hate f,oi Lore for
1IU Strut font Home.
On what bnsls does the theory rest
that Shakespeare was not happy In the
later years of his mnnlcd life? writes
Dr. William J. Holfo In Ladles' Home
Journal.
As we have seen, his wife was about
eight yearH older than himself, nnd the
nuptials had been celebrated In some
hnste. He had gone to London a few
years later, leaving his wife and babies
In Stratford. The "Sonnets," which, to
my thinking, are unquestionably au
tobiographical, indicate that he had
not been able to resist tho temptations
of city life thut ho had sinned, und
suffered, und repented. Note thnt ter
rible outcry of remorse, the 120th son
net. It ussiires us that, whatever his
errors may have been, Shnkespenre re
pented of them; und his nfter life
shows thnt ho brought forth fruits
meet for repentence. He never lost his
love for his Stratford home. We have
seen that ns soon as he began to be
prosperous In London he bought tho
dilapidated New Place, and as fast
nn his means allowed repaired tho
house, enlarged und Improved tho
grounds, and gradually made It the ele-
gnnt und delightful home which must
have been his Ideal from the very first.
Chomlng the National Capital.
"It Is not generally known," suys tho
Philadelphia Ilecord, "but It Is a mat
ter of history, nevertheless, that Bristol
township, lying on the east side of Ger
mantown, had a very narrow escape
from being selected as the Bite of the
capital of tho United States. It was a
very small matter that turned the
choice toward Maryland and Virginia.
So positive were some members of con
gress that the capital was going to be
located near Germantown that they
purchased real cBtate there, not, of
course, as a mutter of speculation, but
simply to bo near at hand when tho
removal from Philadelphia to Uristol
took place. When the vote of the com
missioners was taken there was a tie,
four being for Hrtstol and four for tho
District of Columbia. Washington cast
the deciding vote, und Hrlat'jl township

HER BONES ARE BREAKINQ.
Sarah Scott, of Fall Hirer, Ma., flaf
ferer From Hlng-ular Dlienia.
Flvo years ngo Miss Snrah Scott of
Fall Hlvur, Mail., was budding into a
womanhood that promised an oxcop
tional example of fominino beauty.
To-day, says tho Now York World,
flho is ik bod-riddon invalid in whom
ovcry physician in Now Knjrlund Is
taking- an Interest. .Slio Is suffering
from ostco'iiuilncln, a. inro disenso of
tho bones. Her parents wore both
healthy, nnd thoy hnvo nnothor
daughter who onjoyB a beuutlful faco
nnd a splendid physique. About
eighteen months ago Miss Scott com
plained of a peculiar horeness in her
loft thigh. While about to stop on a
train her thigh bono snapped and sho
was carried into a hospltul.
Tho manner of tho breaking wns so
slmplo that tho examining physician's
curiosity was at onco aroused. After
some of tho most export men had
looked into tho details it was decided
that amputation was necessary to pro
long tho girl's lifo. llor nervos wero
in a shatterad condition, but tho
imputation was successful. It was
noted at tho tlmo that tho bono was of
a very unusual composition, but no
such rosult as luivo followed wore
expected. After tho wound had been
dressed nnd while sho was being
turned in a hospital bed tho doctors
and nur.ses wero astonished by tho
breaking of a bono lu her right thigh,
almost in tho exnet spot where tho
amputation had been performed on
tho other log. Tho fraeturo was
treated immediately, and for eight
mouths tho girl remained at tho in
stitution under tho caro of physicians,
who studied the caso anviously. Then
tho broken limb healed and tho
girl was taken homo. Her general
health did not improve and .slio be
came a great enro to her rolati i.
Ono of tho surgeons at a lloston
hospital, who know of her case,
Kittled In Fall Hlvor some months ago
und mndu a eloso study of tho digeaio
as It developed.
Not many weeks ago, while tho girl
was resting her foot on tho lloor, try
ing its strength without tho hiipport
of crutches, tho right thigh bono
(ignin .-napped nbovo whoro It was
previously broken. That necessitated
.u total coutlneniont to her bod. A
few weeks later sho was trying to
chew a small piece of meat, when her
loft jaw bonu broke. This caused u
noticeablo swolllng nnd her pretty
features now look distorted. Two
weeks ngo sho was trying to ll x a pil

Bonu'whut pompously:

Hut I tako my dog " tho lady

"Madame, tin; rules admit of no

"Your dog must go us other dogs

Tho American lady was becoming

"Imiiosslblo!"
"Oh, sir, tuko tho dog yoursolf,"
tho ludy exclaimed.
"I cannot tako tho dog, inadnmo.
"It is contrary to tho regulations.1'
A great crowd hud gathered by this
tlmo. Tho ludy was beginning to cry;
but suddenly shu thrust her dog, willy
nilly, into tho guard's hands, and then
ho discovered to his intense astonish
ment that the animal was stuffed.
Tho crowd roared with laughter,
and the guard gave way with as much
grace us ho could summon up for tho

FASHION IN FACE HAIR.
There Vl Time When It Took Conr
ga to Wear Heard or Mnttach.
Tho beard nnd mustncho en mo into
fashion among Englishmen so roeontly
that mlddlo-ngcd folks can easily
rocollcct when It required somo cour
ugo to lay tho razor nsldo and still
more to faco tho world during tho
initial stages of tho result, says tho
London Standard. Toward tho closo
of last century tho second Lord Hoko
by endeavored to restore tho pointed
bcnrd, which wont out with tho Stu
arts. Hut his countrymen would not
hear of such an innovation, and ro
called tho hero of tho (Sordon riots,
who, when ho turned Jew, allowed
his beard to grow after tho almost
sacred custom of his co-rellglonlsts.
Lord Kokoby, therefore, endured to
no purpose tho scoffs of his contem
poraries at what one of them described
as "tho most conspicuous trait of his
person." All England either shaved,
or compromised by permitting a sennty
hint of a whisker to grow. Even
"mutton chops," regarded in America
until lately as tho peculiar mark of an
Englishman, woro not generally
adopted by tho btaldor Hritons. As
for mustaches, only military men
woro them, and, indeed, cavalry
olllccrs had almost a monopoly of this
warlike appendage. Tho Infantry sel
dom adopted it, and many olllcers of
high rank, like Wellington, never
woro It nt any period of their career.
Even Napoleon .emnined throughout
llfo smooth-faced, and generally plied
tho razor hlmsolf. "Ono bom to bo
a king," Talleyrand explained to
lingers, "has some ono to shave him,
but they who acquire kingdoms shavo
themselves." Naval olllcers, many of
whom, in common with their men,

thoy are subject to certain rules In
this respect -used to lo mora strictly
tied down. A mustache, far loss a
beard, was novor seen alloat. Tho
mustaches of foreign sailors never
failed to excite tho amusement and con
tempt of our bluo-jackets, just as tho
bearded lips of a visitor at onco

the other day, to tho mover whom ho
had summoned, "this bedroom sot Is

yet. Move It out of the salesroom at
onco ;iud storo it somewlibio until I

What's tho uso of moving it until
you send it up to mo?" asked tho pur
chaser, idly. "Why don't you leavo
it whero it Is?"
The salesman uttered a queer littlo
laugh and said:
"it is evident that you wero nover

would not usk that question. If I
should mark that set 'sold' and leavo
it hero in tho salesroom in plain sight
it would probably loo us soverul good
sales."
"How so?" asked tho purchaser,
with an unlieliuving look.
"It Illustrates a universal weakness
of human nature," luughud tho sales
man. "Everylwdy wants what ho
can't get, and thera is nothing quite
so attractive to the avorago buyer as
n piece of furniture that somebody
ciso has IxMight beforo ho came
around. If I loft that bedroom sot

was exactly tho sot they wanted, and
when they henrd thcro wero no dupli

ly and nntliing else in the establish
ment would satisfy them.
"Eventually thoy would go off dis
contentedly and buy olsuwhore,
though tho chances aro that if thoro
wore no 'sold1 tag on the sot none of
them would givo it more than a pass
ing glance, while a fair proportion of
thorn would purchase other sots. It
is a littlo human weakness, that is all.
"So arisos ono of tho tricks of tho
trade. Whon a dealer sells a piece
of furniture of which ho sells no dupli
cates ho hustles It out of the sales
room as quickly as ho can, lost It loso
him othor trade. Hut when he sells a

SEWING MACHINES
POPULAR?
BECAUSE LADIES
BUY thim LIKE THEM
AND TELL I'So
Many ladies have used our machines
twenty to thirty years in their family work;
and nre still using the original machines
we furnished them n generation ago.
Many of our machines have run mora
than twenty years without repairs, other
than needles. With proper care the
never wear out, and seldom need repair.
We have built sewing machines for
more than forty years and nave constantly
improved them. We build our machines
en honor, and they nre recognized every
where nsthe most nccurately fitted and
finely finished sewing machines in the
world. Our latest, the "No. 9," is the
result of our long experience. In com
petition with the lending machines of the
world, it received the Grand I'rize at the
Fans Exposition of 88o, as the best,
other machines receiving only comptu
mentary medals of gold, silver and bronze?
the Grand Prize was what nil sought for,
and our machine was awarded it.
