* UADA’A’ THE LIMES.
BY MOHTIRER < Ol,l.tKs.
.She eat hcuoath the linden trees,
Murmurs of multitudinous bees
Were heard about.
She said: n A boe is in my hair,
And stings are things T cannot bear ;
O, take it out!"
“Lime-blossoms in the summer-tide
To bees are sweeter,” I replied,
“Than yon ean be ;
A mere winged insect cannot taste
Untangling hair, bewildering waist,
Which madden me.”
No bee <as canght in that sweet hair;
And as to acupuncture, there
• Was no such thing.
This only do I know, sometimes
Love roamed beneath those blossoming limes,
And lave can sting.
[From the London Saturday Review.
THE FASHIONABLE WOMAN.
Among the many odd products of a ma
ture civilization, the fashionable woman is
one of the oddest. From first to last she is
a thoroughly amazing spectacle ; and if we
take human life in nny earnestness at all,
whether individually, m the passage to an
eternal existence the condition of which
depends on what we are here, or collectively,
,as the highest thing we know, wo can only
'look ia blank astonishment at the fashion
able woman and her career. She is the one
sole capable member of the human family'
without duties and without useful occupa
tion : the one eole being who might be
swept out of existence altogether, without
deranging tbp nice arrangement of things,
or upsetting the ordained balance. We
know of no other organic creation of which
this Could be said; but the fashionable
woman is not as otlter creatures, being, for
tunately, sui generis, and of a type not
existing elsewhere. If we take the mere
ordering of her days and the employment
of her time as the sign of her mental state,
we may perhaps measure to a certain ex
tent, Lut not fully, the depth of inanity into
which she has fallen, and the immensity of
hey folly. Considering her as a being with
the potentiality of reason, of usefulness,
and of thought, the actual result is surely
the saddest and the strangest thing under
heaven.
She geos to bed at dawn, and does not
• attempt to rise till about noon. For the
Wist part she breakfasts in bed, and then
amuses herself with a cursory glance at the
morning paper, if she has sufficient energy
fur so great umental exertion ; if she has
nut, she lies for another hour or two in that
half-slumberous state which is so destructive
to mind and body, weakening both fibre
and resolution, both muscle and good princi
ple. At last she rises languidly, to be
dressed in time for luncheon and her visi
tors, if she receives generally; or for the
one or two iutiiuates, if she is at home only
to the fayored. Somewhere about four she
dresses again for her drive—for the first
part of the day's serious business; for pay
. ing visits und leaving cards; for buying
jewellery and dresses, and ordering all sorts
ul unnecessary things at her milliner’s ; for
. this grand lady’s afternoon tea, und that
grand lady's afternoon at home, with music;
for her final slow parade in the Park, whore
she secs her friends as in an open-air draw
ingroom, makes private appointments, and
carries on flirtations, and hears and retails
gossip and scandal of u fuller flavor. Then
home, to dress aguiu for dinner; to be
followed by the opera or concert, a soiree,
or perhaps a ball or two; whence she re
turns towafd morning, flushed with excite
ment or worn out with fatigue, feverish or
nervous, as she has had pleasure and suc
cess, or disappointment and annoyance.
This is iter outside life,-and this ia no fancy
picture and no exaggeration. After acer.
4am time of such an existence, ean we
wonder if her complexion fades and her
eyes grow dim ? and if that inxcpressibfe
air of haggard weariness creeps over her,
'which ages eyen a young girl, and makes a
mature woman subsiantudly ait Md one ?
It ia then that she bus recourse to those
9 font and fatal expedients of which we have
heard inroffe than efiofigli in these latter
days. She will not try simplicity of living,
natural hours, wholesome occupation, un
solflsk endeavor, but rushes off for help to
paints and cosmetics; to stimulants and
drugs, and attempts to restore the tarnished
freshness of, her beauty by the very means
which fdither corrode it. Every now and
then, for very idleness, she feigns herself
sick, and has the favorite physicinn to
attend her. lu fact the funnibst thing
about her is the ease with whieh-she takes
to her lied on the slightest provocation, and
the strange pleasure she seems to find in
what is a penance to most women. You
meet her in a heated, crowded, noisy room,
■looking just as she always looks, whatever
her normal state of health may be; and in
answer to your inquiries she tells you she
has only two hours ago left her bed to conic
here, having been her room for
a week, or so many days, with Dr Blank in
cluee attendance. It you are an intimate
female friend she will whisper you the
uaine es her malady, which is sure to bo
something terrific, and which, if true, would
have kept her a real invalid for weeks
instead, of days ; but if you are only a man
she win make herself out to have been very
ill indeed in a more mysterious way, and
■foaie ypd ta wonder at the extraordinary
' physique of fashionable women, which en
ables them to live on the most friendly
toueli-aad-ao terms with death, and to over
come mortal maladies by an effort of the
will anti, the delights of a ducal ball. The
favorite physician has a hard time of it
with these ladies; and the more popular
lie ts the harder his work. It is well for
hie generation when he is a man of honor
< mid integrity, and knows how to add self
respect and moral power to the qualities
which have made him the general favorite.
For his influence over that idle woman is
for the time almost unlimited—like nothing
bo <nnch as that of the handsome Abbe and
■ the fascinating Director of Catholic coun
tries-;. and if he chooses io abuse it, and to
turn it to evil issues, lie can. And, however
great the merit in him that be does not, it
docs not lessen the demerit of the woman
that fie ccufii. ( Sometimes the fashionable
woman takes up with the clergyman instead
of the physician,Mnd coquets with religious
• exercises rather tbtn with drugs; but
neither clergyman nor physician can really
change hex mode of life, or give her truth
or common sense. Sometimes there is a
flattering chow of art patronage, and the
fashionable woman has a handsome painter
or well bred musician in her train, whom
she pets publicly and patronizes graciously.
Sometimes it is a young poet or a raising
novelist, considerably honored by the asso
ciation, who dedicates his next novel to her,
ur writes verses in her praise, with such a
fervency of gratitude os sets the base
Philistines on the scent of the secret, and
perhaps gnessing not far amiss. For the
fashionable woman has always some love
affair on hand, more or leas platonic accord
string to Iter own temperament or the bold
n«iae-of the man—p love affair in which the
least ingredient is love in any real or
wholesome sense: a love affair which is
vanity, idleness, a dissolute imagination,
and cOTtempt of such prosaic, tiling:, ns
morals; a love affair not oven to be excused
by the tragic frenzy of earnest passion, and
which may be guilty and yet not true. The
physical effects of such a life as this arc as
bad as the mental, and both are as bad as
can be. A feverish, overstrained condition
of health either prevents the fashionable
woman from being a mother at all, or makes
her the mother of nervous, sickly children.
Many a woman of high rank is*at this
moment paving bitterly for the disappoint
ment of which she herself, in her illimitable
folly, has been and i» the sole and only
cause. And, whether women like to hear
it or not, it is none the less a truth that part
of the reason for their being born at all is
that they may in their turn bear children.
The unnatural feeling against maternity
existing among fashionable women is onq
of the worst mental signs of their state, as
their frequent inability to be mothers at all
is one of the worst physical results. '1 his
is a condition of things which no false
modesty or timid reserve should keep in the
background, for it is a question of national
importance, and will soon become one of
national disaster unless cheeked by a
healthier current and more natural circtrm
atances.
Dress, dissipation, and flirting make up
the questionable lines which enclose the
life of the fashionable woman, and which
enclose nothing useful, nothing good, noth
ing deep or true or holy. Iler piety is n
pastime; her art the poorest pretence ; her
pleasure consists only in hurry and excite
ment, alternating with debasing sloth, in
heartless coquetry or in lawless indulgence,
as nature made her more vain or more
sensual. As a wife she fulfills no wifely
duty in any grand or loving sense, for the
most part regarding her husband only as a
banker or an adjunct, according to the
terms of her marriage settlement; as a
mother she is a stranger to her children, to
whom nurse and governness supply her
place, and give such poor makeshift for
maternal lova as they are enabled or in
clined. In no dftmestic relation is she of
the smallest value, and of none in any social
circumstances besides the mere adorning of
a room—if she is pretty—and the help she
gives to trade through her expenditure.
She lives only in the gaslight, and her
nature at last becomes, as artificial as her
habits. As years go On, and she changes
from the acknowledged belle to the femme
passee, she goes through a period of frantiß
endeavor to retain her youth ; and even
when time has clutched her within too firm
a hand to be shaken off, and she begins to
feel the infirmities which she still puts out
all her strength to conceal, even then she
grasps at the departing shadow, and fresh
daubs the crumbling ruin, in the belief that
the world's eyes are dim, and that stucco
may pass for marble another year or two
longer. Or she becomes a Belgravian
mother, with daughters to sell to the high -
est bidder; and then the aim of her life is
to ’secure the purchaser. Iler daughters
are never objects of real love with the fash
ionable woman. They are essentially her
rivals, and the idea of carrying on her life
in theirs, of forgetting herself in them, oc
curs to her only as a forecast of death.—
Even from her sons she shrinks rath’er than
not, as living evidences of the lapse of time
which she cannot deny, and awkward at
fixing dates; and there is not a home pre
sidea over by a fashionable woman where
the family is more than a mere name, a
social convention loosely held together by
circumstances, not by love. Closing such
a life as this comes the unhonored end
when the miserable made-up old creature
totters down into the grave, where paint
and padding, and glossy plaits cut. from
some fresh young head, nre of no more
avail; and where death, which makes all
things real, reduces her life of lies to the
nothingness it has been from the beginning.
Once the name of English woman carried
with it a grave and noble echo as the name
of women known for their gentle bearing
and their blameless honor—of women who
loved their husbands, and brought up about
their own knees the children they were not
reluctant to bear and not ashamed to lave.
Now, it too often means a girl of the period,
a frisky matron, a fashionable woman—l»
thing of paints and pads, consorttfig with
dealers ot no doubtful calling for the pur
chase of what she grimly calls “beauty,’*
making pleasure her only good, and the
world her highest god ; it 100 often means
a woman who is not ashamed to supplement
her husband with a lover, but who is un
willing to become the honest mother of that
husband's children; it too often means a
hybrid creature, perverted out of the natural
way altogether, affecting the license but
ignorant of the strength of a man, alike as
girl or woman valueless for her highest
natural duties, and talking largely of
liberty while showing at every turn how
much she fails in that co-csscntial of
liberty—knowledge how to use it.

read This.
New Albany, Ind., March 12, 1867,
For forty years I have been afflicted with
costiveness, and for the last twenty was com
pelled daily to resort to injections to secure
an evacuation. In December last I com
menced the use of Radway’s Pills. After
taking a few doses, my liver, stomach, and
bowels were restored to their natural strength
and duties. I have now a regular movement
once a day, and, although 80 years of age,
feel as hearty aud strong as I did 40 years
ago. «

HIGH ENDORSEMENT FROM TH!
MEDICAL COLLEGE OP PRUSSIA.
DR. RADWAY
Il in receipt of an important official does,
ment, signed by the Professors of ths
Medical College of Breslau, Prussia,
embodying the result of an
analysis of
BADWAY’S REGULATING PHIA
“ The Faculty of the College state in their
report that afltr • careful and minute examina
tion, they have the honor to state that “ the
pills are not only free from every substance
injurious to health, but are composed wholly
of substances and elements promotive of
digestion, and certain at the same time to
act favorably upon the nervous system,
Ac. They state, further, that the injurious
rumors set afloat by the Prussian apothe
caries originated "in a mean spirit of trade
Jealousy, excited by the great celebrity at
tained by the Fills within « very brisf
period."
Signed on behalf of the College,
DR. PHIL. THEOBALD WEBNER,

DB. HESSE, first Aswfiwfc
mmcgsTiON r
In cases where natural evacuations art
difficult to secure, and a quick discharge is
essential, take six of Radway’s Pills and pul
verize them,—take the pill powder in water
or preserves,—in half an hour they will ope
rate. We have known the most distressing
pains of Gastritis, Bilious Cholic, Inflamma
tion, Congestion, Ac., stopped, and the re
tained irritating humors expelled, from the
bowels in thirty minutes by Ulis treatment.
It ia however, better in chronic cases to take
the pills as they are, and let them gradually
dissolve" in the stomach. These Pills possess
in the highest degree cathartic, aperient,
tonic, and diapharetic properties. They do
do not weaken or debilitate the system or
any of its organs, and will leave the bowels
regular and healthy. They purify and equal
ize the circulation of the blood. No conges
tion or inflammation win occur .while tbs
system is under their influence. Price 26
cents per box, or 6 boxes for «m dollar.
