The Supreme Court of Ohio has
examined tiie'- state's . new anti-
tramp law. and does not find any-
thing unconstitutional in it. This
law is certainly a terror to tramps.
it says that any person of the male
sex, not afflicted with blindness,
not a resident of the county. who
is “found going about begging"
shall be deemed a tramp. '1 hen it
says further: “Any tramp who en-
ters a'dwelling house, or yard, or
inclosure about a dwelling house,
against the will or without the
permission of the owner or occu-
pant thereof, or does not. when re-
quested, immediately leave such a

The reign of lawlessness at Chi-

tough element there. The local
newspapers are fttil of crime re-

and the police _f0rcc has been

possible for robbers to invade the

it Is Just as easy to sit down and use
the multiplication table to figure out a
fortune of $266,000,000 for Mr. Roche-
follor no it is to reckon up “00.000.000
for Mr. Carnegie by the same process.
The trouble with all these. calculations
in that they cannot be. verified. i‘rob-
ably it. is safe to any that few of our
multl~mlllionnlres themselves could
oven approximate the number of their
millions were they to attempt to reek-
on up or to realize upon them. The
principal assets of the gigantic corpor-
ations with which the names of Rocke-
feller and Carnegie are identified are
the brains and business ability of their
owners and promoters. Without them
there would have to be another basis
of calculation.

THE NEW 01109 or amount-wan.
(Saturday Review.)
It is becoming rarer and rarer to
meet with young people who have a
clearly defined notion of what they
want to be, who have formed a plan of
life, and are determined to forgo lower
pleasures in order to carry out some
far-reaching project that has fired their
imaginations. Lofty ambition seems
to be dying out. and youths "drift" into
their occupation casually. or select
them with little regard for anything
but that they happen to fit in with their
desire for a good time in the. present.
Employers of clerks know that. sittin-
tlons are valued more if they afford
leisure for sports and pleasures than
If they offer a higher Immediate salary
and greater opportunities of advance-
ment in the future. This is a feature
of office life which has become lately
no noticeable that it In ulgniflcalit of a
relaxation of intellectual and mono
fiber amongst English youths. and
must have serious consequences. The
desire to enjoy life and have a larger
share of its pleasures in not indeed oi
necessity a mark of decadence. On the
contrary. it may be the demand of a
larger and more cultivated mind for a
fuller human life. which is of benefit
both to the tuition and the individual.
But this would be much to optimistic
a View of such facts as we are thinking
of. The individual nroferene for an
”dialer place" springs not iron the de-
sire for it wider. happier life. but just
from the sacrifice of any such desire
to immediate enjoyments.
WHAT WOMEN ARE DOING.
The course ribbed poplins are includ-
ed among the winter‘s dross materials.
Aprons made almost entirely of lace
of very fine quality are being neatly
boxed and tied ready for Christmas
delivery. Nearly every lady will find
use for such a gift for aprons are very
fashionable now.
Women with eoiiservntive tastes will
not be likely to rave over many of the.
winter hats—they are too original and
picturesque. l have noticed some
which in their combinations of colors
were in excellent taste. but the ar-
rnngemont of the various feathers and
pieces of decoration were too eccentric
to be pleasing. Some of the longer
feathers are placed in most ridiculous
relations to the hats they are intended
to ornament.
The. stores have indeed a Christmas
appearance. and nowhere perhaps in
.thiS more noticeable than where books
are sold. The bountiful holiday vol-
umes. some. with familiar titles. moan
many happy hours for the fortunate
recipients. It seems as if books were
ntore satisfactory as gifts than any out-
er thing for the. some money because
they provide a double enjoyment—«ro-
pentod pleasure in the books them
selves as titer read and ro-rend and
pleasant reminders of tho givers.
An inexpensive pin cushion that will
be pretty for a long time—~at least as
long as gold braid will continue in fu-
vor. is made by covering the cushion
smoothly with satin of one's favorite
color and placing obliquely'aerosa this
three bands of gold braid. Bind the
ruffle on very neatly and evenly. Of
course. a ruMc of lace laid over that of
satin would result in a daintfor cush-
ion. btit it in not necessary for dnl'y
use.
