Mrs. Grannis of Twenty-second street,
who is going to reform the 101v bodices of
fashionable women, is still opposed to
Lady Henry Somerset, who is going to
reform the living pictures. The whole
Grannis crusade recalls the extraordinary
amount of energy which was wasted for
upward of half a century on the question
of corsets for women. The crusade was
carried on with a degree of vigor not even
approached by the present attack on low
evening gowns, and yet to—day girls of
twelve or fourteen years wear corsets, and
women do not even discuss the question
of their propriety. Lady Henry. who is
at present directing everything of im-
portance, as far as women are concerned,
in Boston, has been made the laughing
stock of London by Jerome K. Jerome.
The humorist discovered that while Lady
Henry was denouncing every form of
social evil in London she was drawing
rentals from some of her East End houses
which were inhabited by feminine per-
sons who were no better than they should
be. On top of this Mr. Jerome has just
discovered that Lady Henry has a lot of
hop kilns‘ on her farm, and that she re-
ceives a large income from their opera.-
tion. As every one knows, hop kilns are
used for the manufacture of alcoholic
liquors, and Mr._Je1 01111. is now pointing
out that Lady llcmy rlc111 cs a revenue
from the sale of alcoholic beverages,
while rigorously denouncing the traffic
in connectidn with the Viorncn’ s Chri8~
tian Temperance Union. —N. Y. Sun.

SHE WORE IEM.
That’s Why Uncle Josh Didn’t Take the
. “Pants” that He \Vanted.
UncleJoshua was selecting a. pair ;of
trousers in the clothing store.
“What do you think 0’ them?” he said
to the good-natured salesman.
“Why. I think they’re all right,” the
salesman said: “but the idea. is to please
the one that’s to wear them. The question
is, do they suit you?”
“Ain’t they pretty guy for. an old fel-
low?”
“Gay! That’s a. very quiet stripe. They
look well 011 you, too.’
“I guess they do fit pretty well. I ain’t
worn a pair 0’ striped pants, though, in
I dunno how many years, an ’-—still, you
say they are all right.”
“I say if they please the one that’s to '
wear them they most certainly are all
right; and you are wearing them, so you’ re
the judge. ”
“I believe I do like ’em, by gingerl
’Bout right for len’th, ain’t they?”
“They are about as near right as any
custom tailor could have made them-
length, waist and everything.”
“You wouldn’t call it a loud stripe?”
“I would not!”
“No; it don’t seem to me so. Still, I’ve
been wearin’ either black or pepper ’n
salt for I dunno how many years now, an’
everything else looks kind 0’ queer. But,
I declare, it does seem good to. get some-
thing else on. There ain’t any good rea-
son why a man 0’ my age shouldn’t wear
these pants, is there?”
“N o earthly reason that I know of, if
you like them. They certainly look well,
and they are first-rate trOusers.”
“Well, I guess I’ll go take ’em OE and
let you do ’em up. You’ll throw in a. pair
0’ suspen—Pshawl there comes—~er—this
lady comin’ is my wife. I’ll wait a min-
ute, I guess—All through with your shop-
in’, mother?”
“Thank heavens, yes!” replied the vig-
orous-looking woman who had been ush-
ered up the aisle. “\Vhat you got on?”
she added.
“Five dollars,” said the old gentle
man, clutching one leg of the trousers
and stretching out the cloth for inspec-
tion.
“They be, be they? Hev you got lots of
time, Joshua?”
“Time?—How~—why?”
“Because if you hev, mebbe it’s all
right to rig yourself up in fancy costoom
for the entertainment of this young
man; but I ain’t got overmuch time, my-
self, an’ I guess we might as well pick out
a pair 0’ pants now like what I told ye to
git.”
“\Vhat’s the matter with—”
“Lemme see somethin’ on the pepper-
’n—salt order that’ll about fit him,” said
the lady to the salesman. After select-
ing a pair about the size required she
handed them to the silent man at her
side.
“Now you run into the cubbyhole and
git into these,” she said; “and let’s see
how they look. ”
“The idee of a man 0’ his age pickin’
out streaked pants,” she said to the
salesman, as her husband moved meekly
away. “The pair he’s got in his hand is
somethin’ like. Don’t you think so, your-
self ?”
The salesman smiled pleasantly. “They
are good goods,” he said. “The thing
is to please the one that wears ’em.”—

The Song of the Frog.
\Vhen the frog wishes to express his
joy he bursts forth into song. He lifts
up his voice and makes the wobdland
ring. Only the male frog sings. The
females constitute the audience who sit
in the front row and enjoy the music.
And it is the speckled green frog who is
the prime soloist of the woods.
These operettas only ,take place at
night, and the performances begin at
8:30, after an overture by_the katydids
and the early mosquitoes. The frog,
however, does not come out upon the
the stage with a roll of music in one
hand and a smug smirk on—his face.‘
Neither does he proceed to scatter sand
upon the floor from a cornucopia and
preface -his performance with a song
and dance.
He jumps right into the middle of his
song, without even a. preliminary bow to
the front row in the audience, and after
a succession of short, shearp notes uttered
in quick succession, he lets it go at
that. _
A French scientist, after long listening
in the woods, has made out and reduced
to writing the song of the frog, or
“swamp music,” as he calls it, and has
discovered that the frog repertory is
varied and extensive. Frogs can carry
on conversations at long distances and
can communicate to each other emotions
of fear or hunger.
A big, old green frog can make him-
self heard for a distance of more than
two miles. —Scientific American.

her account at the bank last month. “I
spoke to her about it one evening,” says
he, “and told her she ought to adjust it

her if she had done what I suggested.
