Treatment of One Rtou Hat. It lias been seu’onnly proposed that American boys shall wear Eton suits— suits that make any human boy look like an ostrich. The Anglomaniacs will adopt these absurd costumes for their children, if they have excuse enough, but there are lots of Americans who are not Anglomaniacs. I went to school with some. One day a lad came to school with an Eton hat. Murmurs and whispers of surmise und disapproval were heard when .»e entered, and looks full of meaning parted from boy to boy. At 11 o'clock came recess, and precise ly at ten seconds past 11 there was a riot. That was the moment when the lad atijieared with his little “plug" hat on. He was a quiet, shrinking boy, and l pitied him from the bottom of my heart, for his parents were to blame of course. Directly that he set foot in the yard he was seized, pulled this way and that, tripped up and despoiled of his hat. That article went immediately into use as a football, and in less than a minute had become a shred of black beaver and pasteboard. At last it was pitched ov the fence with a yell of triumph and the l»oy went homo bareheaded and in tears. American honor was maintained and the injurious influence of British custom effectually defied. That is wlmt is go ing to happen here every time a boy tries to wear Eaton clothes. Spare him, ye parents. Consider his bones if you don’t respect his feelings. —Brooklyn Eagle. Rite Wouldn’t Detain Him. At a famous and charming salon a cer tain western woman, just uyw making a little stir in literarvdmn, was the hon ored recipient of marked attention on the part of the gracious hostess, finite late in the evening there was a small hubbub at the door, and in strode one of New York's most prominent journalists and diplomatists. Tall, military, white haired, ruddy cheeked, distingue, in faultless evening dress, he bent over the hostess’ hand, explaining that he has just stolen away from an important en gagement a moment to pay his devoirs. “But,” said Mrs. , “now that you are here, you must meet Miss , of whom 1 was telling you.” He—My dear Mrs. , a thousand thanks, but some other time I shall be delighted. I really havo not a moment to spare. I Sho (fairly dragging him across the room, if so rude a verb may express sc dainty an action)—Colonel , this is Miss , of , the coming woman. Miss — (whose keen ears and ready wit had grasped the situation, gracious ly but deprecatively)—Pray, do not let her detain the going man, Mrs. S , and presenting his much in demand highness the sidewise curve of a white shoulder, sho continued the laborious sustainment of an Englishman in eon versation.— New York World.

Two men stood in front of the show window of a Wabash avenue millinery concern looking at the styles and guess ing at tho prices. Of course neither had any sort of idea about tho articles on ex hibition. Then they went in and asked the floor walker how near they had come to guessing at tho prices. After sho had told them ono of the men asked: “Why don't you put tho prices on your goods the same as clothiers do on what they exhibit in their windows?” “You betray an ignorance that is par donahle under the circumstances. Here is a hat that we sell for $1.50. Do not faint—there aro hats for women that can lx) lx night for that figure. Suppose we put that price on the lint and displayed it. No woman would ever purchase it, because she would bo afraid if sho did that her neighbor might have seen it and would know what she paid for it One of the privileges of a woman is to de ceive her sex about tho cost of her hats and bonnets."—Chicago Tribune.

Married the Family. A story of u Florida luan who married three wives from ono family is going the rounds as something remarkable, hut there was a family' in Maine consisting of six girls, aud of tho six three married men nuiued Bickwell, three married to the name of Young, one married a Liver more and one never was mnrricd. An other paradoxical feature is that there were only five husbands in nil. The explanation Is that two of the Biekwells died, leaving widows, and Mr. Young, who had two of the sisters liefore, took one of the widows. Then Mr. Livermore took the other. So thnt there were seven weddings in the fam ily, and only five men and five women concerned In them. Mr. Young hnd lost one wife txdore he began on this family. —Manchester Union. Matt's Two Reputations. 1 am always interested in wiiat may be called the two reputations which each man has; one is his public name, the other his |»rsonal or private eminence: the one is the distinction which he has among people, the other the regard jwiid to him by las own immediate set or fol lowing. Archdeacon Farrar has a great reputation among the ordinary people of America and Great Britain, but scholars look upon him with much of suspicion as an accurate and profound exegete. Bishop YVestcott. however, has a small reputation among the people. Probably not ono iu twenty of those who read this paragraph ever hoard his name, but the respect in which he is held by scholars is of the highest.—Chicago Advance.

As might b« Htipixi.*»d. the earliest book that is assigned to the child is the Latin grammar. Bovs’ Latin grammar for several centuries were mere text llooks compiled from the larger works of Dona tos and Priscian, aud they were com uionly known by the name of Donates or Donets, a term which occurs in Piers' “Plowman." The word grammar, on the contrary, was used more iu conjunc tion with Latin studies generally, and science, as well as even magical power, sometimes spoken of as grammarye. A very commonly used «school hook in monasteries seems to have been the "Consolation of Philosophy” (in the orig inal, of conrse), by Boethiup, of which at least a fragment “would most probably be fouhd even in the most meager con vent library.” The earliest book in existence written expressly for boy* is here stated to be Aldhelm’s “De Septenario, de Metris, yEnigiuatibus, ac Pedum Regulis. which probably appeared about the end of the Seventh century. A great part of it consists of dialogues between teach er aud pupil, in the style which was still popular in the first half of tho present century, and may t** found in such works as Mrs. Markham’s History. The Venerable Bede is also claimed as a writer for the young.—London Saturday Review. Grandma's Cure for Dandruff. “We often scoff at the ancient grand mother remedies,” said an up town phy sician the other day in conversation with a patient, “but our forefathers used to get a power of comfort from them, never theless, and cheaply too. Science has progressed wonderfully, of course, and we are much better off on the whole now than were our sires, but we forget a great many of the littlo things. Now I notice thnt you are troubled with dan druff, and 111 wager that you have spent many dollars on different alleged cures, and you are worse off now than when you commenced. Let me give you a ‘grandmother* prescription that never fails. Go to a drug store and buy five cents' worth of salts of tartar. Dissolve half of it in warm water and wash the head thoroughly. Repeat this at inter vals of three months for a year, and you won’t be annoyed with dandruff any more.”—New York Recorder. Humanity Runs In Streaks. Peculiar humanity runs in streuks. On certain days you will notice a surprising number of tall people. Sometimes it's croaaeyed people. On other occasions the noticeably short persons have their inniugs. Then ono day somebody equally observant will say, “What a remarkable array of the crippled, the lame, the maimed, the dwarfed, the generally de formed there are out today?” And while you are commenting on it another comes along and then another and another until the idea makes you thirsty.—New York Herald. Dislikes Elevators. It ix it peculiarity of Mr. Clarence A. Sewaril, president of the Union club, that ho will never ride on the elevated road. lie prefers the conservative street car, and when tile street cars are not rnnning he walks. ' Mr. Seward also has an aversion to possenifer elevators in tall buildings. It is said hy some of llis cloeest friends that the only elevator that he will trust himself ill is the one in the U nion club. His office in Nassau street is on tho third floor, and there he walks up and down stairs.—New York Times. Envelopes! Envelopes!! Wo havo just received a big job lot of manilla envelopes of.
