The handsomest woman I over saw was one who took { front euro of her health. When I know her she was pibt : thirty , but no girl of sixteen that I have over soon hud rosier checks or brighter oyoa. .Of course she was naturally flno looking but the attention she gave to matters of hygiene added to and pre served her beauty. What did she do ? I don't know that I can recount all , but I remember her telling mo slio took a sponge bath every morning ; was par ticular about the ventilation of her apartments , took long walks when she could ; ate "but little moat , much fruit and cereals whenever she could get them. Another thing she did whioh Bho tried without success to got mo to do , she drank her colTeo without milk or cream , diluted .with water. The reason she took her coffee so was because her physicians told her it was healthier to drink it in this way. Whether the practice added to her per sonal charms or not 1 do not know. On the whole blio wiia certainly repaid for her systematic habits and as certainly there wag nothing ardu ous about the performance of them. Nor was there anything bi/.arro about thorn as , It seems to mo , there IN about the following account 1 rend of a Chicago belle : "To keep the suppleness of her llguro she stands ono hour daily , liftoon minutes at a time , with her hands on her hips before a long mirror , and bonding her knees out from each other she Milks slowly down to the floor as low us possible , then as slowly uprising , meantime moving her arms in any di rection to their utmost longth.out or up , forward or back , until when she stands erect they are ready to bo placud en hoi- hips again. "ICaoh movement is repeated , every time a little accelerated , until at the oiul of thirteen nrimitfs It is done qnlckly , and a flno color is in her checks. Shu then lies down on a per fectly Hat couch , without a pilluw , until her breath comes smooth and regular , ns it will in the two minutes left in her quarter of an hour , When she plays n good deal of tennis she cuts down her exorcising ono-half. " Of course , the benefit to bo derived from , this proceed- ure Is not to bo questioned , whatever may bo thought of it besides. It is easy to see her whole body thus receives peed oxereiso , adding to the gruco of lior own form , bouutlfyJiig her coin- nlcxion , and making her stronger and healthier. " Ijatcst NCWH of Mrs. Mnckay. Philadelphia Press : Mrs. J. W. Mackay. wiio is distinguished as ono of the best dressed women in the Ameri can colony in Paris , comes to the fore this autumn in a feather cloak , which she throws over her shoulders driving to and from entertainments. The cloak Is made from the breasts of birds of paradise and , as may bo imagined , is a most gorgeous creation. Hut the whole- bale bacriiico of the feathered tribe can not bo cited as a novelty. As early as 1819 ono of the chiefs of the Sandwich islands made' proud boast of a cloak of the feathers of a rare bird to bo found only on those islands. They are of a rich yellow color , tufted with red. The cloak was taken from the chief's ' shoul ders when ho was slain In battle , and was boino years afterwards presented to an oillcor in the United States navy , who placed it on exhibition at the Cen tennial of 187(1 ( , and who later on pre sented It to the National museum ut Washington. Speaking of Mrs. Mackay , it may bo interesting to note that ono of 'hor most convicted and sentenced before the Parisian court , before which lie was literally carried. His name was Hertz , and hu had hold at seine past time the position of bntlor in the Maukay man sion. While serving in this ca pacity ho had managed to poke his nose into almost all of Mrs. Maok- ny's .ilTairs , a habit , by the way , which the Parisian domestic adopts , as ho him self says , for his own safety. Profit would bo the bettor word. When fin ally his obtrusiveness could bo endured no longer and ho was discharged , ho at first refused to lewvo the household and had to ho forcibly ejected. Ho soon reappeared , however , 'and threatened to give U ) the sensational so ciety papers all the information , big and little , which ho had managed to gain while in Mrs. Mackay's employ. Hud the latter dealt with him as ho do- borvcd at this point and kicked him out of the house , it is quite probable that she never would have heard from him again. Hut being acutely sensitive to ridicule and anxious to avoid the pub lication of suoh potty details ns as ho had learned , she ma'do the natural blun der of treating with him. This , of course , only encouraged him to further effort. As a matter of fact the scoun drel know nothing of a really damaging nature , but Mrs. Maekay seems to have dreaded his Inventive powers. Hertz's last demand was for $ % _ ' ,5 < tO , the penalty ' for refusal to bo an alleged exposure o'f the lady's complicity in the death of two former servants in her employ. At this bho mustered up courage enough to have him arrested and tried , and ho was sentenced to two years' imprison ment. The Violin in I'aiv Hands. RobUm Herald : How well the violin bectimos a young girl , and how fright fully diflieult it is for her to conquer that king of instruments ! Butouco her own , the two are a picture for the eye , a voice of exceeding musio for the car. The severely critical would sav the eye should have nothing to do with our judgment of an artist ; but while mankind Is human , youth and attract iveness will have much to answer for in our likes and dislikes. It so happens that musical instinct falls oftonest to the lot of pretty women ; or is It that talent makes them fair by developing that personal charm which is the great est beauty youth can possess ? I thought FO while hearing Tua play , and I am qulto sure of my theory while listening to Uollo Uotsford , wh < v Is n violinist of peculiarly refined und duliity urlixtio foelingr Thcso young artlsLi , though Signorina Tun is some years Miss Bots- ford's senior , are gifted by nature with beautiful arms and hands , a most essen tial beauty in their profession , and to bo required to shut one's eyes to thorn would be more than susceptible mortals could endure. A Victorious Widow. A Jamestown. Dak. , correspondent writes : The liglit to chiuigo the couuty seat of Logan from Napoleon to the new town of Lowry , on the Aberdeen & Bis marck railroad , developed ono of the shrewdest managed contests known in the territory. The victory which fin ally perched on the banner of Napoleon was won by a woman a widow , and a Minneapolis widow at that. She had property interests at Napol eon loft her by her husband , and when she heard of the fight , came out to look things over. She found matters in a very bad shape. The county seat had boon located at Napoleon for some years , but nothing had come of it. The place , if place it could bo called , was without a store , even , and gradually all interest in it was fading out. There wore less than ono hundred votes in the county , and no prospect of one-half bei'-.S cr.st. V'hat InlereSi there yes on the side of the new town , of which there was some hope when the railroad was completed. The widow took in the situation , and taking off her coat , so to speak , began work. She shod her $200 sealskin , and arrayed in rough garments , drove over the prairie , stopping at the farm houses staying all night in cabins and litter- ally sitting up with the inhabitants. She came , she saw , she conquered. The old farmers heard her , looked upon her , and resolved to stand by her. Now she encountered a man in financial trouble , she instantly relieved him. Hero she found a man grumbling at the lack of growth in the town of Napoleon ; it was arranged at once that the place should have u church , u store , a hotel , a bank , everything which heart could wish and the end was that the gratified and cap tured inhabitants came up and , figura tively speaking , laid the decision of the momentous question at the pretty wid ow's foot. The vote came off and Napoleon leon refused to surrender to Lowry. The military hero was still superior to the financial princoor rather the widow was on the side of the little Frenchman and so the deal was closed. What will now bo done Is a problem , but it looks very much as if the widow had the edge , so to bpcak , and was in a position to dic tate terms. Mrt * . Sliormaii as a IIouHckocpcr. Now York World : Mrs. Senator Sher man , in addition to being the best read and most highly accomplished society women of the capital , is a thorough housekeeper , and slio understands cookIng - Ing almost as well as the chef of the ' white house. At her homo in Mans- llcld , O. , she keeps boino fine Jersey cows , and her butter is made after her own directions. Not long'ago she sent a roll of this butter to the county fair of Richland county , in which Mansfield is situated ; and in order that no favorit ism might bo shown on account of the butter coming from the wife of Senator Sherman , she did not allow any name to bo attached to her exhibit. The judges awarded the premium to another party , and they passed over the butter of Mrs. Sherman , on the ground that the rich yellow shown In It , could not have been produced except by artificial means. Mr . Sherman was somewhat indignant nt the suspicion , and sent , I am told , a slice of the butter to each of the judges , with her compliments. The cream of which it wasmado was to rich , that it was as yellow as the gold of Ophir. Wrecked Ily a Woman. It is rare that a client gets the bet tor of his lawyer , says a Washington lawyer , but one of the anecdotes with which Judge Richardson illustrates his 'ccturo on English practice eeems to af ford a striking instance of that sort of thing. It booms that In England a bar rister has no fees allowed by law. The solicitors who employ him give him only ' un honorarium. Ho can collect nothing by bringing suit. Moreover , if ho deals directly with a client ho will bo dropped by all the solicitors. A certain English woman had a case involving several thousand pounds. Every solicitor to whom she submitted it told her that she hail no caso. Finally , however , she met a barrister who declared that her case was good. She 'olTcred him 00,000 if ho could win it for her. Ho accepted , moved into her circuit , risking every thing in the venture , and won the case for hor. Then she refused to pay him his promised foe. Ho sued hor. but was unable to recover n farthing. His pro fessional future WIIH ruined and his life made a blank by this one act of impru dence on hib part. How Women Could Change Things. San Francisco Chronicle : What a revolution there would bo if woman , lovely woman , wore to waica tip sbm6 | fine morning to n full realization of her powers and band herself , so to speak , in a band or trades union , and start in to have things her own way. Whoop ! How things would change. I don't include married woman. She would simply raise a riot , got sat upon and crushed and what little Independence she has now would vanish. Unmarried woman is the most potent force in nature. She is the most favored agency of electricity in the shape of magnetism , and she could simply do what she pleased if she had the backbone to try it. She must not be in love , or if she is she must not bo deputed to work upon the fellow she is in love with. She can't do anything with him , but she can work most effect ively a whole dozen of men who want her to bo in love with them. No Knights of Labor.organization , no body of the kind , could possibly compare in practi cal power with u trades union of unmar ried women bent upon having the world worked her way. A fllinpsody on Woman. Toxnrkana Independent : Woman Is just too awfully lovely in newly laun- dried Wamsutttannd lawn , when fresh from close communion with toilet soap and a crystal , watery bath. She has the ripe peach fragrance of paradise and the breath of tho''capo jasmine of the tropical empyrean : When a fellow passes to the windward of a pretty woman who is filling the air with sweetness and puritjyis she trips grace fully along , ho delicately sniffs the air for an hour , as ho had got a snatch of heavenly perfume , anil , was trying to woo another whiff from over the celes tial battlements. God \ > less the women ! If there wore none on earth baldhended men and babies woulut fyo awfully scarce and courting would lojio. more than half Its flavor. A Heroine of the I-'lowry Kingdom. China Mail : The case of P'u Ai-nl is creating a sensation. She is a girl of eighteen , who worked hard to maintain u debauched brother. The brother was murdered and Miss P'u applied in per son for -redress , informing the magis trate , in reply to his queries who wore the murderers and where the murder ers' weapons wore , that it was exactly this that It was his "duty to. discover. Fulling to obtain redress she walked from Honan to Pokin and threw liorsolf in the omprcbs1 path. Covered by the rifles of the guards , bho was raised by order of the empress and handed over to the board , where she is now comfort ably liiBtallod , attended bj two old .women , pending the arrival of the par- tics concerned from the provinces. Questioned as to whether she was en gaged to be married or notsho answered : "Your business , O , judges , is to discover my brother's murderers and not to meddle - dlo with my private affairs. " The papers already talk of giving _ her a prominent place in history , while the high officials of the board are anxious to avoid the responsibility of confront ing her in court. Women PrlntcrH. Now York Sun : There nro from 400 to COO women who are typesetters in this city. Of these those who are or ganized belong to the Typographical union No. 0 , which is primarily a men's union. Those women arc employed In newspaper and job offices , aim In s ich largo houses as Harpers' and Leslie's , in various capacities is typesetters , dis tributors , copy-holders , and they do work from the most common to the finest. John Everett , foreman of the compos ing-room in ono of the newspaper ofllco.1 ? and u member of Typographical union No. 0 , says : "Women nro a standing menace to men. The best thing we can do is to organize them. " Vv'hat is your oxp'orioncc w th-them in the composing-roomy" ' 'They can never compote with men. They do not learn their trade as intelli gently as men do , who take It up for life. A women may bo a very rapid typesetter. Generally she is. Her Idea is to make as much money us she can the few years she is at work. Eventually she expects to marry. Mean while she gives us very dirty proofs. Hero wo employ women only ns distrib utors. Some women earn from Slfl to $120 per week , and the average earnings are # liJ a week. But the difficulty is to persuade women to enter the union , when , in truth if they will sot typo , It is their only safety and ours to do so. We insure them our prices as well as pre vent thorn cutting under those prices. " Mr. Charles Phllo , one of the oldest members of Typographical Union No. 0 , said : "Our union is 4,000 strong , and if I should pronounce their senti ments as a body it would bo against women as tj'pesettors. It is nJight business , but it is ono that demands a serious nervous strain , and wo don't think women are fitted to bear it. At the same time , since there are woman type setters , wo want them to como into the union. We receive them on a basis of perfect equality so' far as our privileges , legislation , and benefit societies are concerned. Wo demand for them the same pay for the same work. Wo in sure thorn among us every respect as women , and I observe that their presence in u composing room is bene ficial. It softens the manners of the men. I will say this for women , they are splendid allies. If wo go out on a strike the women will stand by to the last. They act from principle. But wo have our limitations. Wo will not allow women to do night work. Wo think they are not fitted for It. That they must leave to the men. On the other hand wo Imvo secured for them during the last year the same pay as men , and wo mean they shall have it. " AVoincn Meddler * . Albany Journal : Women who mcddlo with everybody else's business are lo bo shunned and feared. One of them was on the Troy local yesterday afternoon. A sprucely dressed young man held in his hand a yellow imper-eovored book , in which ho ueomed to bo deeply in terested. The woman sat in front of him , and , happening to turn to take in the passengers , observed the cheap lit erature which was engrossing the atten tion of the young man behind her. In a pleudlng , insinuating voice , she said to him : "Young man , don't you know that you ure wasting your time vcrv foolishly in reading dime novels1)1 ) You might bettor take a book on history with you , or something else that would benefit your mind and give you an op portunity to improve. " Reaching her hand over the back of the seat , she said very deliberately : "Let me look at that book. " The young man , without relaxing u single feature , handed the book over to his aggressive follow- passonger. She turned it over to read the title. It was as follows : "Easy Lessons In French for Beginners. " The old lady never said a word. She dropped the book in the young man's lap and shot into the next car. The Instinct of Dross. London Queen : The fashion of buying all things ready m&de has been a bless ing in many ways , but it has deprived women of the necessity of thinking out their clothes for themselves , and in vesting them with some degree of their own personalities. The "esth'etic sot' ' were right when they sot their faces "against'Tnis custom mmucvmrcu inmt every woman's dress should bo tin ex pression of herself ; but the mania for full bodices and skimpy'skirts , hugo iialfl und little handkerchiefs defeated its object , for all the maidens and ma trons of the esoteric coterie were ar rayed in the same fashionso , that , while the individuality of their sot was as serted energetically by their attire , their own personal entity was more ut terly disguised thereby than it would have been by the most. French and elaborate of reudy-mado costumes. A woman who has the instinct of dress , shows it when she buys a gown "off u peg" just as much as when she plans and arranges every detail of a costume after her own fancy. That a frock Is pretty or quaint or fashionable is no rea son that she should purchase it ; her test of it is , "does it look like mo ? " and though she may sometimes take u new departure , some now freak of fashion , which is unlike anything she bus worn , but that yet approves itself to her as likely to suit her , she has the wit to know whoter it will really mould itself to her. A well dressed woman always wills that her clothes .shall bo part of her , and utterly scorns the idea of being merely a dummy for the display of Mr. Worth's hist creation. Death of * nn Kcuontrlc Woman. NlAOAltA FAU.S , N. Y. , Dec. 4 The body of the woman who was found witli a bullet hole through her forehead and a ro\olver In her hand , two weeks ago , lying half way down the Canadian bank near the Horseshoe falls , was burled to day. The mystery surrounding her death has boon partially cleared up by the identification of the body ns thnt of Caroline Loavcnworth , an eccentric maiden lady of Ilinsdale , Chautaiigua coun'ty. She was the daughter of Dr. John Loavcnworth , who died pomo years ago , leaving no estate. Ever since her father's death Mis.s Leaven- worth lias lived a hermit's life , and sel dom permitted any one to c > nter hoi- lonely room. Her sleeping apartment was a small iron bound room , in which no stranger's eye over gained ad mittance. She always locked and barred herself In at night , and never allowed herself to bo separated from a small hand-satchel , which , it is be lieved , contained considerable money , besides private papers. She carried a loaded revolver day and night. It was known that the eccentric woman possessed considerable personal prop erty , but how she came by it was a mys tery to her neighbors. In her younger days she had nn un- fortunato'alTair with a wealthy Dunkirk manufacturer to whom she bad boon engaged to bo married. It Is said that lier old lever provided her with a large yearly Income. Last spring shn loft her homo und at the end of two weeks returned and sold her house ami , lot at half their value. She gave awny nearly all her personal effects and then disappeared. She had u brother in Chicago and that is about all that i.s known about her. No one saw her ullvo hero and the satchel was not found. Some think that bho was murdered for her money. Women an 1'rlntcrH. CKKIOIITON , Neb. , Dee. 7.
