A. Vnsssnr Student AVorlcs Her Wny *
The way a Vassar student with lim
ited meant ) liolps hcrsolf through college -
lego is thus told by a correspondent of
the Boston Advertiser : Some of the
pirls who como to Vassnr arc as help
less as Imbes. They are the daughters
of millionaires , and never brushed
their own hair or sowed a button on
their boots in their lives. They aVe
only to glad to have some one do'thoso
things for thorn , and that is how the
poorer girls mhlco pocket monoy. Last
year , a pretty Cluo-oyod girl came to
college. and stated during the first
week that Her tuition and board was
paid by a hind relative , but every
penny for dross , car faro and the thou
sand and ono little incidentals she
must earn horsolf. Sooa after her ar
rival the following announcement ap
peared on hot- door :
Gloves find shoos neatly mended for 10
cents each.
Hrcukfast brought up for 10 cents each.
Hair brushed each night for 25 cents a
week.
Beds mndo up at 10 cents a week.
That little freshman made just $150
the first year , and that paid all of her
expenses , and a good part of her tuition
fees.
Practical Art for Girls.
Boston Post : Think of 500 girls paint
ing egg shells ! Three shells are sus
pended from windows and mantels by
silken threads , or they are used as
breakfast or gcrinan favors , it is believed -
lioved that decorative painting is more
remunerative than any other branch of
art and is at the present time more pop
ular in ratincd society than piano-play
ing or dancing. Another fad is einbol-
ishing the table china with portraits of
the family and relatives. At ono of the
largo art institutions I Jound" that an
other branch of remunerative art was
the designing of quaint and artistic cos
tumes not alone for the stage , but for
indoor occasions and fashionable poi
sons.

Cincinnati Times-Star : A Gincinati
lady tolls a story of an experience she
had several years ngo with a Now Or
leans cousin who was visiting her , and
who with all his freshness as to north
ern ways and fashions , was exceedingly
polite. The time was winter , when
inrcro muila wore the proper caper , and
mulTs in the Crescent city were un
known. The first day out for a walk the
young Now Orleans gentleman , notic
ing his fair cousing supporting the lurgo
muff , mistook it for a burdou , alid
said :
"Cousin Lucy , lot mo tote you'bah
skin fo' you. "
"No , Cousin Thomas , " responded hia
comjmnion , "all the young ladies in
Cincinnati carry them ; you see it is the
fashion. "
"Well , I never saw but ono of thorn
bofoV replied the young Chesterfield'
"and that was in Now Orleans and a
young lady was not totin' it either. It
was in front of a brass band and on the
head of a drum inajah. "

A otrnnga story comes from Sterling ,
O , Sj.i.0 UciO ago Miss Anna Laonard
dted at her homo in thatplaco. During
Miss Leonard's girlhood she waa greatly
attached to an oleander bush , the gift
of n friend when she was hut six years
old. When in bloom the bush was cov
ered with bright scarlet flowora , and
Miss Leonard was always a patioiit
watcher to see the flowers burst from
the buds. Shortly before she was taken
ill Miss Leonard had given away the
bush to an intimate friend. Last De
cember , when the young lady began to
grow worse , the oleander bush began
putting forth buds a strange thing at
that time of year. The buds developed
as the young lady failed , and when nor
death occurred the village of Sterling
was searched for white flowers to put
in her collln , but none had been found.
The day the remains wore to bo re
moved to Uollofontaino for interment
the budding oleander bush , which its
owner , Miss Goodynnr , hnd booa pa
tiently watohidg for ton weeks to bloom ,
burst into bloom , and instead of the cus
tomary rod ( lowers , the entire bush was
covered with snow-white ones. A
bunch of the white ( lowers wore culled
and placed on Miss Leonard's collln just
as the remains wore being removed for
hipmont to Bellefontaino.

British Postoillcc Girls.
In ono respect , the employment of
females in the British postolllco is act
ing a way not quite foreseen by the de
partment namely , in the promotion of
marriages. Especially has the "Central
Hall" suffered in this respect , four of
its mobt valued lady , clerks having
resigned in order to enter tlio state mat
rimonial. But if the government is
thereby inconvenienced , all the fjirls in
the department are pleased , for if they
do not win the prize of matrimony they
profit in they way of promotion by tlio
retirement of their fortunate sisters.

Itlnile Diplomacy.
Boston Courier : They were sitting
together in the warm parlor , saying
little , but thinking much. But lovers
do not need to bay much to be compan
ionable.
The little clock on the mantel , for a
considerable time , had been the only
speaker. Its tick , tick , tick , seemed to
the youth to say kiss her , kiss her , kiss
her. To the maiden it said leap year ,
loaj ) year , leap year , and its reittoration
of this phrase moved the maid to break
the silence.
"How funny some people wo. " she
said.
said."PunnyV"
"PunnyV"
"Yes , some people who are going to
got married. "
"Ohl"
"Yes , same want to bo married in a
balloon , some on the middle arch of a
bridge , some in a boat , some in a rail
road train , some on horseback , some on
the edge of a precipice , some down in a
coal mine. "
"Yes , I have noticed it. "
"What is their object , I wonder ? "
" of . "
"Marriage , course.
"But I moan their object in getting
married out of the usual way. "
"Well , I'll toll you what I think.
They got married in this way so that
they can toll their children and their
grandchildren that tho.y wore married
under peculiar circumstances , as for
instances , 'your mother and in'o. chil
dren , wore married in a coal mine'or
'your grandmother and mo , , children
wore married in a ballo.on,1"
i'l'll bet that's ' just the reason , " said
the children.
"Of course it is the reason. "
There was a pause. Then the maiden
with a glowing cheek , said :
"I've ' boon thinking , John. "
"Yes , " said John interrogatively.
"I've boon thinking how , funny it
would bo " ( a pause and'a , deeper
blush ) .
"Well , Bella , you've been thinking
what ? " . .
"I've boon thinking how funny it
would bo "
"Yos. "
"If when the subject of. marriage
comes up , thirty or forty years hence ,
you could point to mo and say , 'Why ,
children , your grandmother proposed to
me in leap year aud wo were married i
few weeks after. "
John is very busy those days in fur
nlahing a nleo little cottage , and Belli
Is superintending the making of her

last Sunday to a reporter who was pay
ing him n visit in the choir during morn

The reporter fixed his eyes on the
mentioned pow , The father seemed to
bo n prosperous banker or merchant , a
portly , gray-whiskered , red-faced man ,
evidently somewhat of a martinet. As
the doaon approached with the contri

from his inside pocket , opened it and
pompously handed each of his daugh-
tcos a bunk note ,
"Ho them tenner "

Kaon girl as she received her bill
crumpled U carolcbsly in her right hand

When tlio silver salver was handed into

passed thcfptolonlontr to the daughters.

1'urn Bl Rnro ns Snow Birds.
In the cOurfO of fifteen minutes' walk
n Broadwajwio other day a Now York
tall and4BjrpVoss reporter counted 200
vomon , yotintf and old , with hair rang-
ng from a medium brown to the darker
hades which all but artiste call black.
Only thirteen women wore passed who
wcro of the pronounced blonde order.
Three of those wore of the reddish
lassos and the hair of two had appar-
intly been bleached. At the theater
lie same evening , of fifty women within
asy range , six hod fair skins , blue eyes
nd light hair. They sat surrounded
jy a bevy of dark women , who gave its
[ ) ro vailing tone to the complexion of the
liouso. Interest in the results observed
od next morning to a public School.
Ono class of eighty girls had , eight
blondes to seventy two average
browns and brunettes. Another of six
ty-five girls had sixteen fair-haired
Hipllsto fifty-five standard brown heads
and darker. In a third class the pro
portions were seven light to fifty.ihuddy
und dark. The st-ntomont may bo haz
arded that not above 8 or 10 per cent of
Now York women are blondes. In the
big dry goods stores ono is wailed on by
salesgirls with brown bangs and brown ,
hazel or grdy dyes. Thoro" is a clerk in
ono establishment who is celebrated
among half the shopping population for
her wonderful , babyish gold hair , the
typo commanding by its rarity Instant
attention. Go anywhere whore pretty
girls congregate and you moot tall ,
striking-looking figures with dark hair
and big , dark eyes. Is the blonde typo
disappearing , and if so , why ? Among
men the proportion of blondes seems to
be a trifle larger than among 'women.
In both sexes , however , in spite of the
strong infusion 'of Teutonic blood , the
dark complexion dominates. * If you
don't believe itmako some observations
when you go into a public place and
see.

A New York jeweler : "I receive so many
orders for out-oMhe-wny articles of jewelry
that it hikes a good deal to iisto'msh me ; but
when a pretty young lady came iu the other
day and had a ring made to order for her
Lhumb , I must confess that I was surprised.
She ordered n plain , broad , dull gold band ,
nnd I must pay that when I saw It on her
pretty little left thumb 1 changed my mind
about the young woman's taste , for the ring
was really very becoming. Are thumb rings
going to bo fashionable ! Who knows ! In
the days of ancient Greece nnd Homo they
wcro generally worn , and in eastern coun
tries are still in voguo. I wouldn't bo a bit.
surprised to sco thorn become fashionable-
hero. "
A few days ago a Uoston lady was in
formed by her servant girl that n box of
flowers had been left at the door for hor.
Ucing occupied at tlio time tlio ludy told the
servant to open the box , sprinkle the flowers
with water and put them on the ice , adding
that she would attend to them when she
wont down to tea. The box really contained
n now spring hat which had been ordered ,
but was forgotten at the time the servant re
ported tl.o arrival. Only the flowers were to
bo seen when the box was opened. The ser
vant followed her orders explicitly , nnd the
flowers wcro BO thoroughly drenched that
from a "perfect love of u hat" it bccamo a
limp und worthless mass of discolored ribbons
bens aud straw.
A restaurant keeper la Uockland , Mo. ,

bing their hats and coats ran off. The pro
prietor of the joke could hardly stand for
laughing until ho happened to think that ho
had frightened the men away before they
had paid for thoirlsiippors. . .
