CliUdreii’H I'ashloiis for June.
Flannel is always a most useful and
suitable material for the wear of chil
dren in the country. The difference in
the temperature, the cool mornings, the
liability to sudden changes of weather,
create conditions and emergencies
always met by this soft, light-weight all-
wool material, which, if properly lnun-
dried, can be kept nearly new by wash
ing as white cotton cloth. Some pretty
flannel suits marie recently for girls of
fpur to eight or ten, are cut with a long
princess bodice, plaited back and front,
to which are attached a tucked flounce
that forms the skirt. Dark blue, red,
grav, or black and white check may be
used for these pretty and simple little
dresses, which are trimmed with several
rows of black velvet, used as a heading
to the flounce, anti in a long jacket out
lines upon the body the body part Cos
tumes in two shades are much used for
older girls, two shades of gray blue, two

Advice is a first-iate thing given
when it is asked and when the
person giving it knows what he or
she is talking about; but there are
volumes of advice and counsel
which are utterly useless, because
it is simply the result of a high
self-opinion—a love of being
meddlesome,and an uncontrollable
desire to be important by saying
something—what, makes nodilfer-
ence. Ad vice to be worth any! hing
must be asked and matured in the
mind before it is uttered. Tin re-
fore it is altogether better, aB a
rule to attend to your own business
and let other people’s alone, unless
you are invited to interfere. Pub
lic men are to be an object of syiu-
>athy as they are especially vic-
ims of the advice giver. All the
nen and women in the world think
hemselves culled upon to give a
man who happens to be in public
1 fe a sort of advite, seeming
entirely to lose sight of the \ory
important fact that any one who
‘ has mind enough to attract any
considerable show of public atten
tion has enough to manage bis own
aflairs; therefore, get your own
affairs in good shape and keep
them in it and by thus-so-doing
you w ill not find time to waste sc
much of life in looking after otbei
people. It is quite an easy task tc
pick holes in other people’s work
but it is far more profitable to d<
better work yourself and, ei<
casting my pen aside, I would saj
that advice givers remind meol
some men who are very entertaining foi
a first interview, but after that they arc
exhausted and run down, or better saying
run out, for on a second meeting one
finds them very fiat and monotonous, at
like hand-organs—we have heard all
their tunes.

About Smoking.
BY BUSY BKK.
Can any one explain why inen who
are gentlemen in everything else forget,
or wilfully ignore the fact that tobacco
smoke is not agreeable to every one as
to themselves, and why they seem to
take particular pleasure in creating a
blue haze of tobacco smoke in rooms
which should be sacred from such con
tamination? Assembly rooms, concert
hall and private parties seem to be the
favorite place for smokers to prac'ice
their art, and especially does it seem
that the more poorly the room or house
is ventilated the more numerous the
lovers of the weed.
Now, this is not only impolite but un
kind, for in every assembly there are
people with delicate lungs, sore throats
and heads which are subject to almost
brain-splitting aches, and all these mal
adies are irritated and increased by that
filmy fog which in “these degenerate
days ” seem to fill all places of public
amusement, recreation and pleasure.
I have seen ladies with eyes red-rim
med and wild-looking from the pain
caused by this pernicious smoke, at d
have known many people debar them
selves the pleasure of attending hall,
concert, or lecture, simply because their
lungs were weak and the inhalation of
the vitiated air cl the rooms made their
hacking coughs not only troublesome to
themselves, but annoying to others.
What ray you, smokers; can you not
have a time and place for smoking?
A time of dreamy ease to you; where
your pleasure will he enhanced as yon
rt fleet that now you have a proper place
to enjoy your pipe or cigar, and yonr
ct-n-cieiue docs not H'gg’-st to you that
283
you aro making some one unhappy or
giving some one pain aa you indulge in
soothing meerschaum or cigar.
" Come, let us reason together ” on
this subject. I have long thought that
men who smoked are not intentionally
rude, but only thoughtless in chooa*
ing their “ time and place,” and if I can
get only one smoker to pause and bring
himself to think to what extremes be
allows this habit to lead him, and then
resolve on being more moderate and ju
dicious in its indulgence. I shall feel
that I have not spoken in vain.
I do not object to the habit of smok
ing, for I like to imagine to myaelf sumo
great orator, siatesman, or poet, follow
ing brilliant trains of thought, laying
great pluns for tho public good, or com
posing a beautiful poem, aa, in the quit t
of his sanctum, ho follows tho wreaths
of blue smoko created by pipe or cigar,
as it curls fantastically above him.
