The Right to Oblivion.
FROM THE SANSKRIT.
In the market-place at Delhi sat a Brahmin
grave and old,
Meditating on the Vedasand the truths that
they unfold,
When a lowly Sudra pasting, paused. This
tale to him he told:
''Master, in the heat of noonday I was
standing in the street;
Faint was I and weary-hearted, seeking
food that I might eat;
And the pavement in the sunlight burned
like fire beneath my feet.
"To me came a noble stranger decked with
gold and jewels rare
Without asking cast this burden on my
shoulders that I bean
Turned and left me. Though I've sought
him, none have seen him anywhere,
"And I cannot bear it longer." Said the
Brahmin: "Were you asked
For permission by the stranger as this weight
on you he cast?"
And the Sudra answered sadly: "Nothing
said he as he passed."
"Throw the load from off your shoulders,"
spake the sage. "There is no blame
Should you choose to ease the burden of a
man you owe no claim,
Tarry ii you will, for weary is the road o'er
which you came.
"Twas unsought, this weight you carry;
leave it if it be your will,
And forget your weary journey as you sink
in slumber still.
None may censure, none may wake you;
rest you safe from every ill.
Fashions of the Day.
Everybody has one ambition just now,
and that is to prepare for the spring and
summer a stock of shirt waists. There
is no more discussion, no more question
ing as to whether they will be worn or
not; they are established for a time.
The shirt waist of '93 does not differ
in style particularly from that of '97.
The sleeves are a little smaller, there is
a little more bag or blouse to the front,
there is a little more fastening to the
side and there is a positiveness in the
neck being finished with a plain, straight
band to which to fasten the white col
lars. There is a certainty that the tie
to be worn will not be eo much the tiny
bow and narrow strip around the neck
as the Roman tie or rich ribbons going
twice aroucd the collar and finished with
the inevitable "four-in-hand" in front.
The materials used for shirt waists are
Madras, pique, linen duck, percale and
any of the materials that will retain
freshness in laundrying.
These materials are used for the early
spring wear. Later, for warmer weather
dotted muslins and Swiss and all the
thinner materials in white, which were
so popular last year, will again be worn.
Yokes are pointed or straight or round,
as fancy dictates, but both the thin
materials and the heavier ones have the
same finish at the neck for the linen
collar. With clean collars a waist can
do duty in treahne38 much longer.
Extra waists for theatres and semi
dress are to be as fashionable as former
ly. The prettiest ones are made of lace
and net and chiffon over colored silks.
Chantilly lace is particularly effective,
the fine pattern showing up prettily
over the taffeta silk lining. Brussels
net embroidered or with a jetted pat
tern of the fine French cut bead running
over it is still more dre3sy. When chiffon
is used it is usually shirred or accordion
plaited, and is the same color as the
lining.
Effective waists are of cream-white
lace over white satin. These are worn
a great deal with coats having beautiful
linings of course, with the coat or
blouse thrown open occaaionaly, or left
open all the time. This fancy for the
white lace waist? has come about by the
persistent popularity of the fluffy fronts
of white, even with fur coats. At the
warmer days come, and coats are left
open, an incongruity appears which had
not been noticed with the soft furs for
backgrounds. The white lace waist baa
led further into the fancy for white;
coats are being lined with white satin.
What can be prettier than this? It
sounds perishable, but is really not so.
The white waist and the coat lining are
both protected from the dust of the
street by simply buttoning the coat The
greatest incongruity is that these beauti
ful waists are even worn with cloth skirtB.
If the cloth be pale gray then, it is not so
bad, but no deference is paid to the
delicacy of color.
Roman striped silk is to be worn a
great deal for waists. To be Roman in
effect the stripe should run around, and
not up and down. Our manufacturers
are not giving us the prettiest of these
stripes. The stripes are "Roman," but
the colors are decidedly American. Jn
the Japanese wash silks there are some
exquisite combinations of color in theEe
stripes. The colors should be most deli
catepale blue, palo pink, olive, lemon
or else daring and bold in contrast, such
as deep blue, bright red, orange-gray, and
white. In "terra cotta,' dull blues and
modern tints the "Roman stripe" is a
burlesque. Tessa.

"When,'" inquired the presiding ex
aminer, sternly, "would you advise a
consultation?"
"Why, I don't know, I'm sure,'' stam
mered the youthful medical student.
"Whenever I wanted the patient to die
on some other man's hands, I suppose."

"I think," said Farmer Peastraw,
after be had been buncoed for the
fourth time, "that I am overworked."
With some men remorse for past sins
is a sort of pleasant exercise whereby
they hope to clear their conscience for
fresh ones.
