Tlio failure of Jacob A. "Weixlcr , the jew

tributed to drummers who Induced him to
buy what ho could not soil and consumed the

llieir goods. By this statement Mr. Weixler
advertise- * himself ns nn unusually pollto
Jowclor , nnd the wicked "road npcnts , "
whose glib tongues nnd si'ductlvo ways were
the cause of poor Mr. Wehler's downfall ,
will no doubt ho sclrcil with n proper degree
of remorse fur their misconduct. If most
people were asked nt short notlco ,

believe the juwclry drummers would bo ac
corded lht honor. They liavo been charged
with all Ino crimes nmt all the vices In the

thounfoitnnato Mr. Weixlcr to dicovor n

A Sensible Precaution.
Though disease cannot always bo con
quered , Its first approach can bo checked.
But not only Is the use of a medlehyl safo-
Rtiard to bo recommended on the flrat nppcir-
uuco of a malady , but a wise discrimination
should bo uxoiciseJ in tlio choice of n remedy.
For thirty years or moro Hosteller's Stomach
ach Bitters lias been the reigning specific for
dyspepsia , fever and ague , n loss of physical
stamina , liver complaint and other disorders ,
and has boon most emphatically endorsed by
medical men as a health and strength restor
ative. It is Indeed a wise precaution to use
this sovereign fortifying agent and nlteralivo
In tlio early slnpes of disease , forit elfeclually
counloracl-s It if the malady belongs to that
largo class to which this .sterling medicine Is
adapted. Not only is it cucacious , but pure
and harmless.
j Wnltorn From Guests
Just as maids and other domontlcs are
obliged in n majority of families to wear
some article of headgear to dlstlngulbh
them from the members of the family , bo
in future miwt all waiters in hotels and
first clnss restaurants wear something
that will at once denote their occupa
tion , says a writer in the Now York Sun.
I had a talk on the subject yesterday
with a prominent catororof this city , who
informed mo that a general movement
was on foot la that direction. Complaints
have been made , ho said , especially from
gentlemen in the habit of giving private
parties , that it is impossible to distin
guish tno pucsts from the waiters. All
dress in the regulation "swallowtail , "
and ho pointed out tlmt in some In
stances , where the gnosts happened to
bo strangers to each other , some humor
ous mistakes were made. The prevail
ing Idea is not to do away with the swal
lowtail , but to have the waiters wear
some kind of n uniform tie that , without
dotractiiiK1 from their unpenranco , will
at once make known their identity.

"Vlcllli ami Vlsiloin. "
I was very much amused at the arti
cle published n few days ago on "How
Girls Are Proposed To. " I think the
way I proposed was just aa unique as ,
and tlio time and method a little more
novel than the methods the follows in
that article adopted , says a writer in the
Globe-Democrat.
It was n case of love nt first sight , but
the girl didn't know how I felt , neither
was I sure that she cared n continental
forme. , She was a modest , retiring ,
bashful 1 : little thing , and while I wanted
to tell her how much I thought ot her I
tv
was afraid to. Ono Sunday night , the
fourth ttnio I had called , I made up my
mind i fully that I wanted her. Bat she
mis to shy I thought it would frighten
her , away If I spoke. About 10 o'clock
I proposed a game of cards , and in a
joke suggested that we play for a wager ,
and that she put up herself against ino.
She modestly consented.
I thought I was going to lese , and I
know if I did It was a last chance , oven
If it was a joke. Well , I won , and I
told her with u laugh that oho belonged
her hand and said she must always pay
her losses , and that the hand I hold
was mine. She lookpd at ino with a
smile , and said quietly :
' Well , if you want It you can have
It. "
I won that girl by a game of cards on
Suntlny , but wo neither liavo regretted
tlio violating of the fourth command
ment. Perhaps my method may help
flomo other bashful couple.
Wo in a u Unhappy Without Ijovc.
I nm curious to know whether n woman
Into whoso life love has never entered
can ever have been what I should enll
happy. I do not think bo. She inny
have found the qtilot garden of which
content keeps the keys , says Louise
Chandler Moulton in the Ladies' Homo
Journal. She , may bo reconciled to her
fate ; and console herself by thinking how
much better ort she is than if she wore
unhappily married ; but such dull resig
nation is not oven llrst cousin to the rap-
turoofjoy. I am old-fushionou , perhaps.
In my ideas ; but I honestly think tlmt
real happiness comes to u woman only
hand in hand with lovo.
When she begins tofeoltlmt , with ono
man in it , the room is full , nnd empty
when ho is gone no matter how many
others may remain , she begins to bo
tremulously , dellolously , deliriously
happy. But that is only the beginning ;
mid if love holds happiness by the hand ,
fear stands at the other elbow. A word
too many or too few a stnilo that does
not go her way and the girl sutlers as
much as she has just enjoyed. Her very
boul hungers within her for some dear
certainty. And when tlmt eomos when
her troth Is plighted Is tlmt her happi
est moment ? She does not think so then ;
for she is looking forward to the bridal
morning.
The day of day comes , nt last , and the
now life begins. la that , then , the happiest -
piest moment:1 : Hardly , for the very
most loving people who ever lived are
not quite ono , to begin with , and they ji
must learn to live together. A year a
year of mutual forbearance ; of getting
well acquainted a hnppy year ; and now
they look Into each other's oycs fear
lessly. They are ono at last , and for all
tlmol
Surely that Is the happiest moment ?
I had made up my mind to Bay BO ; but is
itrAh
Ah , I think , nftor all , the happiest
moment Is when love Is a sweet , shy new
comer , and hope leads it by the hand.
Pi-luces * Ulsninrclc.
If little is known in England of Prince
Bismarck's private life , still loss , says
Mrs. Porolra , according to the London
News , is known of the lady who for more
than forty-two years has shared his
homo. Tlio Princess Bismarck Is de
scribed , as the very tnodol of n practical ,
methodical Gorman matron , with an
eye of every detail of hou-sohold nrrange-
mont and economy , and a heart for the
comfort and well being of each house-
mate , from the highest to the lowost.
Weddings , it has been observed , not
boldomgivo ri.so to other weddings.
It wasat the wedding of n friend thnt
Bismarck lirst mot Frauloin Johanna-
von i/uuaiiuiiier. ono vas ono 01 ino
bridesmaids , and the btatoly lady made
then and tnfcro nn impression on the
young baron which culminated in an of
fer ol marringo three yearn later.
The hey to the princess' character Isle
lo bo found , says the feaino biographer ,
In her words 'That
: my husband is n
public character Is a fact to which I often
find it painful enough to resign myself.
But as for mo , his wife , what have I to
do with publicity ? I do not exist for
publicity , but wholly and solely for him. "
Tills perfect union of souls , however ,
Mr&IPorolra confesses , has not prevented
the princess1 husband from posing occa
sionally as a victim to family claims.
In one letter ho says referring to a pro
jected excursion to the seaside : "I have
hold out against It for a long time ; but
us all the mothers and aunts are unani
mous in declaring that nothing but sea
water and Boa air can do poor Marieohen
any good , I know that if I btlll refuse ,
every cold in the head which may befall
her to the seventieth year of Lor ago
will ho sot down to my avarice and pa
ternal barbarity. "
Again ho writes : "Yesterday I was re
duced to such a Btuto of despair by nil
these pLumings that I was positively de
termined to glvo up the w hole journey ;
and I went to bed with the firm resolu
tion at all events to travel straight
through without stopping anywhere on
the way. But Johanna attacked mo in
the night with the youngster in her
arms , and by dint of all the arts which
drovu man out ot paradise , she of course
gained her point , and the original
bchomo Is to bo carried out. "
It is only fair to the princess after this
to quote her husband's loving letter from
Biarritz : "I have a bad conscience , be
cause I am seeing so much that is beau
tiful without you. If you could only bo
carried hither through the air I would
go with you this very moment back to
San Sebastian. "

KrciicliwotiHMi Dl'lhc l.nrly Snlniii ,
The traits which strike 113 most forci.-
bly in the lives and elm-actors of the
women ot the early salons are delicacy
and sensibility ; they colored tholrinlnds ,
ran through their literary pastimes , and
gave a distinctive flivor to their conver
sation , says a writer In the Century. It
was these"qualities , added to a decided
taste for pleasures of the Intellect , and
an innto social genius , that led them to
revolt from the gross sensualism of the
court , and form , upon a now basis , a so
ciety that has given another complexion
to the last two centuries. Tlio natural
result was , at first , a reign ot sentiment
that was often overstrained , but which
represented on the whole a reaction
of morality and refinement. Tlio
wits and beauties of the salon bleu may
have committed a thousand follies , but
their chivalrous codes of honor and of
manners , their fastidious tastes , even
their prudish affectations , were open
though sometimes rather blinrro tributes
to the virtues that ho at the very foun
dation of a woll-orderoci society. They
had exalted ideas of the dignity of
womanhood , of purity , of loyalty , of de
votion. The heroines of Mile , do
Scudory , with their endless discourses
upon the motapliysici ot love , were no
doubt tlrosomo bomotinics to the blase
courtiers , as well as to the critics , but
their lofty and fine-spun sentiments
charmed the Great Condo in his cell nt
Vinconnes , the eloquent Plochier , the
ascetic D'Andillr at Port lloyal , as well
as the romantic maidens who sighed
over their fanciful dreams and impossi
ble adventures. They had their origi
nals in living women who reversed the
common traditions of a Gabrielle and a
Marion Delorme ; who combined with the
intellectual brilliancy and fine courtesy
of the Greek Aspasia the moral graces
that give bo poetic a fascination to the
Christian and medieval types. Mine , do
La Fayotto painted with rare delicacy
the old struggle between passion u"d
duty , but character triumphs over pas
sion , and duty istho final victor. In
spite of the low standard of the ago , the
Ideal woman of society , as of literature ,
was noble , tender , modest , pure , and
loyal.
Onnoorniiid "Women's Shoes.
It Is not to be wondered at that people
buy cheap shoes. They resemble so
clo sely the higher priced ones , both in
form and apparent quality , that the
masses arc led to believe that they are
as good as they look. Made on the sumo
graceful ba&is , finished apparently fault
lessly , lustrous and shapely , they are
disappointingly deceitful. lUany women
buyers are far moro exacting in tlio
mutter of a scrupulous lit , by which the
foot Is made to look neat and trim , than
they are about quality. A shoo that
will make a woman proud of the foot
which it covers , though only a simula
tion of solid worth , is , in some measure ,
un atonement for the wreck which
speedily follows the wearing of it.
A careful study of several hundred
"
pairs of feminine" feet on a busy thor
oughfare during shopping hours proves
that the stubby foot has disappeared.
Presumably , suggests the Shoo and
Leather Reporter , it has lost its identity
in n long , slim toed shoo. Misses who
formerly were shoos so short tlmt the
toes could bo counted pressed against
the forward end , now have shoo leather
enough at this point to turn up beyond
the natural toes nt each stop.
Shoes that are too narrow for the feet
produce that tingling and burning sens
ation which usually precedes the dor-
mant state of an extremity "gone to
Bleep. " This is occasioned by rotarda-
tlon of the blood circulation , and is inju
rious to both head and foot. No
restraint can bo placed on tlio circulat
ory system without affecting other parts
than those where the restriction is
tl * - T\l I flfl
Many persons who buy shoos with
patent-leather caps , or whole foxing ,
think they are gutting the l > e&t there Is
of the kind , whereas inoht cheap shoos
are furnished vith split horsohldo , ja
panned , and not patent calf ut all.
Klssins Mother.
Dow many young ladies of today
would laugh at the absurd idea , as they
express It , of kissing mother. I5ut you
cannot , dear girls , Imagine how it will
brighten her dour face , says the Loco
motive Firemen's Magazine. Besides ,
you o\vj3 her a Idfes or two. Away back ,
when you were a little fjirl , she kissed
you when no ono else was tempted by
your fever-tainted breath nnd swollen
face. Yon woronot so attractive then ns
you nro now. And through those years
of childish Bunsliino nnd shadows she
was always ready to cure bythomnglc
of n mother's kiss the little dirty ,
chubby hands whenever they were in
jured In thcso first skirmished with thorough
rough world. And then the midnight
kisses vlth which eho routed so many
bad dreams as gho leaned above your
restless pillow have all boon on Interest
those long , long years. Of course &ho Is
not so pretty nnd Idssablo as yon nro ,
but If you hucl done your slmro of work
these iabt ten years the contrunt would
not bo so marked. Her face him nioro
wrinkles , nnd yet if you were sick that
face would appear far more beautiful
thnn an aiifjel'd as It hovered over you ,
watching every opportunity to minister
to your comfort , and every one of those
wrinkles would secii ( to bo a bright
wavelet of sunshine cha&lng each other
over the dear faco.

atoat Notable Liter
ary Invent.
A correspondent of the San Francisco
Uironlcle gives the following account of
Sir lUlwIn Arnold's reading la Toklo of
its latest poem "Tho Light ot the
World : "
Tlio recitation was given In the fine
mil of the nokumolkwnu , the historical
uul Imndfomo b illdlng , some of which
3 loused by the government to the Toklo
club. This hall Is rather nn imposing
jhninber , with its throe curved lire-
places and parqueted colling. There
tvas an assemblage of some hundreds ,
embracing most of the representative
p > eoplo of Toklo and Yokohama , headed
. > y the English minister , Hugh 1'nizor ;
. .hoAinnrieun , John Swift ; the Austrian ,
Huron von Biegoloben ; the bishop , the
Right Key. E. Dickerstoth ; Captain
Brinkloy , R A. , and General Palmer ,
II. 1' . , whoso names are beginning to bo
mown as writers to whom everything
Japane&o is precious and beautiful , from
their morality , commercial and otherWise -
Wise ; to the perfume of their fertilizing
methods , a number of olllcers from the
British llcot nnd a , fair sprinkling of
Japanese who wont there , probably , as
they adopt Christianity or European
boots as tin evidence of their equality
with the western nations.
Sir Edwin came forward the orthr
dox afternoon reciter ns unexceptionable
as tlmt lion among ladles , the composer ,
Istdor do Lard In a faultless frock coat ,
white waistcoat , lavender tie in "hweot
disorder , " light gloves and carnatloneel
buttonhole , with his strong face wearing
its accustomed serenity of pcifect physi
cal health. Ho Is a good reciter , bo-
catiso ho Is most earnest nnd impressive ,
without u tinsel of rant or posing. The
name of his now poem , as all the world
prob.ibly knows by this time , is "The
Light ot the World , " a companion to his
epochal poem , "Tho Light of AMa , "
puts before Christian audiences Bud
dhism transmuted with alchomal art in
poem , harmonious , millied , o.xquislto , co
' 'The Light of the World1' puts Chris
tianity before Christians in a new light
the light of accumulated witdom of
the oast. "Tho Light of the World"
expresses the Buddhist's homiigo to
Christianity , a task for which no man
living is so competent as Sir Edwin ,
bred n Christian and saturated with
Buddhist love and ideas.
Whether Sir Kdwin Is or Is not a Bud
dhist need not bo discussed hero. That
ho has Bucked the best out ol Buddhism
is undisimtnblo. If "Tho Light ot Asia"
Is Buddhism by thollghtof Christianity ,
"The Light of tlio World" is Christian
ity by the light of Buddhism.
Sir Edwin read with much feeling ,
and it Is needless to say was received
witli the highest interest. To sketch the
plot of the poem would not bo fair to
him , but one must pay homage to his
characterization of Pontius Pilate , his
rehabilitation of the stern Itonrnn sol
dier and stole who made the ono faux
pas of currying the favor of the unruly
Jewish populace , who wore Crasar's most
unamenable subjects. As to the romance
with which ho had Invested Mary Mng-
dulon I must bo silent , and also to the
sublime figure ho makes of Christ.
Pilate's wife , Proouln , who belonged to
the great Claudinn gens ) , was an ambi
tions subject to approach after the mag
nificent oidcalization of Doro with its
haunting beauty mid majestic presence.
But Sir Edwin "has added the breath of
life to this exquisite idealization by the
noble character ho has created In his
poom.
For twelve long years Sir Kdward car
ried the scheme of his poem in his mind ,
as Ulysses cherished the imago of Penelope -
lope on his ton years , wandering after
Troy , nnd when nt last ho was able to
lay down his editorial harness for a
while the seeds spr.ing , burgeoned and
burst into blosbom with extraordinary
rapidity until they sUind before us the
perfect whole of a great poom.
It is the outcome of his wanderings In
Palestine many years ago , as the pro-
Rnplmolito accuracy of the local color
ing shows Sir Edwln like the great
poet that ho is , loves to study the beast
of the Held , the bird of tlio air , and the
Ilowors of tlio earth. The Titan wall
that no convulsion ot nature or warfare
could overthrow , the fallen acanthus
frle/.o and masonry crumbling into ple-
turoamio decay , enthral his eve. Tlio
solemn eastern night , purple and Ula-
mended with stars , the llcrco eastern
noon , the mellowness of the delicious
sunset are unconsciously rellectcd , and i r
hero and there hovers across the horizon
zen the Bedouin of the desert with Arab
steed and matchlock and iltiltering
burnorfc.
Sir Dlwin hail absorbed the whole at
mosphere of Palestine , and his poem
breathes it. To his aid comes a profound
antiquarian knowledge and the familiar
ity that comes from long residence In
the east. The poem is as much a picco
of Palestine as Wallace's now classical
'lion tlur. " As might Utvvo boon ex
pected in a poem born in Japan ,
"Fujiyama" inspires one nobk > passage ,
in winch the nnerod mountain so glo- >
loudly beautiful with Its perished or
iilddon fires mid Its spotless crown of
KIIOW shadows forth the life of Mury
Magdalen. Another noble poem is in-
spiral by ono of the most famous Inci
dents In Greek literature , Socrates con
demning the Athenian judges to live ,
ami taking the hemlock as a gift , and a
third , full of Sophocloan irony , pointing
out that Christ's blessed feet overthrow
Jerusalem more utterly than the armies
of Titus , and a fourth , with I'ilato Hying
front the pre enco of Mary Magdalen tit
midnight on his swiftest liorso , because
"one other watch would make mo Xiiz-
arcno ! "
Tlio poem Is full o ( these dramatic sit
uations and interspersed with lyrics of
the beauty of Swinburne's earlier method
ns ho ftiing in "Songs He-foro Sunrise. "
The poem Is nlbo full ot sttlklng lines ,
such as those :
Write mo a SOUR unstained by any tear.
In the monthly ; watch ,
When diviuns como truer through the fate of
morn.
op hollows where tlio winter hides away
Snows through tlio summer.
Ho himself puM-d :
Mllil anil imjcstlcal through death's black
K.I to.
Jf hade * bon , blnch tribunal.
Her that loved much ami Iwd her love with
tlioe.
Ionian cro lie hastens on to illc ,
As rivers die and men die , helplessly.
To rest as the wild waters rest.
Must I lltul at Roma
The face Unit nils my nightly dreams with
fours ,
Watching with those grcnt eyes.
It touched Athens and hath crept to Home.
To this end was I born , and became
KhiguC all kings to witness to tlio truth.
Those old tires now under snow.
Here are some of the lines which de
lineatein miistory points Sir lidwln's
conceptions of Christ and Pilate , and
Chiist's views of Pilate :
With such n niein as ono should have
Wearing the purple.
Her pycs
Burned themselves on my heart.
The flro ot thnso mild eyes ,
That had no fear or any bitterness.
Clauiltn , sighed ,
There was no fault.
Oh ! the light
That beamed fioni those mild eyes.
Tlio speech of blta fair music at his feet
A benediction. '
Authority yet sits nixm my lip.
I played worse traitor to mv stole soul.
1 might Imvo saved ; I would have saved.
That which is wilt Is writ ,
I did not daw.
And that which hindered was thy lust to
win.
Favor of men instead of praise from heaven.
That they might drink clean swill.
I took water anil washed hands
Before ttiu herd.
These lines , caught by the accident of
slower deli very in places , must servo as
a sample. They were liner than any
hero quoted , but thov were usually in
passages poured foith with the rapidity
of excitement.
No ono who heard the poem had any
doubt ot its quality or Us sueoet-s. Ono
of the audience , Ilnrry Dcakin , ' the fa
mous curio dealer of Yokohama , was so
onthiiblabtio that ho bought the Amerl
can rights of the poems , it is said , for
the largo sum of 8 oOOU.
Ono of the two greatest living Ameri
can poets is going to write in lines hero
and there , so ns to secure the copyright
which will appear in his name and Sir
Edwin's conjointly. Tills will bo the
llrst instance of an Cnglish poet of the
first rank publishing a magnum opus in
America , before England a well-do
served homage to the wider diffusion ot
culture in America as evidenced by Iho
vastly larger body of readers.
The reading was ono of tlio events ot
the season in Tokie and everyone went
to it dressed for a legation garden party.
