SPRING OOWN 0F CHEVIOT FROM HARPER’S BAZAR

Black Cheviot Gown.

Already people are beginning to
think about making up their spring
gowns. Cheviot is the material which
seems to meet the first demand, and

there are several different styles in.

which it is used. One design is made
with a skirt which has the effect of an
apron and a very narrow front breadth;
the waist is in basque fashion, shorter
at the back, considerably, than it is in
front. The front turns over in double
revers, on the upper one of which is a

 

pattern of braiding. There is a point

.ed vest and stock-Collar of white silk

laid in tucks, and below this yoke is a
vest of black satin. The correct cut of
this gown can be obtained from the cut

paper pattern issued by Harper’s Bazar, ,

where it appears. The contrast of the
white against the black is very good,
and makes the gown more becoming
than it otherwise would be. The
sleeves are of medium size, finished
very plainly at the hand. \

 

 

GLADSTONE AS A BOY. _

”Master \Villie’s” Opinion Generally of
Most Account in the Family.

John Gladstone, the father of the
great statesman of Great Britain, liked
that his Children should exercise their
judgment by stating the why and
Wherefore of every opinion they offered
and a college friend of William’s, who
visited him. during the summer of 1829,
furnishes amusing pictures of the fam-
ily customs in that house, “where the
children and their parents argued up-,
on everything.” They would debate
as to whether the trout should be boil-
ed or broiled, whether a window should
:be opened, and whether it was likely to
be fine or wet the next day. It was al—
ways perfectly good-humored, but curi-
ous to a stranger because of the care
which all of the disputants took to ad-
vance no propositions, even to the
prospects of a rain, rashly.

One day Thomas Gladstone knocked
down a wasp with his handkerChief,
and was about to crush it on the table,
when the father started the question as
to whether he had ,the right to kill the
insect: and this point was discussed
with as much seriousness as if a. hu-
man life had been at stake. When‘at
last it was adjudged that death was de-
served, because it was a trespasser in
'the drawing-room, a common enemy
and a danger there, it was found that
the insect had crawled from under the
handkerchief and was flying away with
a. sniggering sort of buzz, as if to mock
them all. _ ,

On another occasion William Glad-
stone and his sister Mary disputed as
to where a certain picture ought to be
hung. An old Scotch servant came in
with a ladder, and stood irresolute
while the argument progressed; but as
Miss Mary would not yield, William
gallantly ceased from speech, though
unconvinced, of course. The servant
then hung up the picture where the
young lady ordered; but when he had
done this, he crossed the room and
hammered a. nail into the opposite
\‘vall. He was asked wlgy he did this.

“Aweel, miss, that’ll do to hang the
picture on when ye'll have come round
to Master Willie’s opeenion‘.”

The family generally did come round
to William’s opinion, for the resources
of his tongue-fencing were wonderful,
and his father, who admired a-clever
feint as much as a. straight thrust, nev-
er failed to encourage him by saying,
“Hear, hear! Well said! Well put,
Willie! ” if the young debator bore him-
self well in the encounter.

A QUESTIONABLE ADVANTAGE.

Writers \Ylio \Vere Henpecked
. Husbands. .

The editor of the Philistine thinks
Lhi’l there is some 'compensaion even
in a shrewish wife. He says:

“For the benefit of henpecked and
misunderstood husbands I’ll call atten-
tion to the fact that the men who have
achieved most in literature, music,
painting and philosophy are men who
knew from sad experience the sharp-
ness of woman’s claws: Socrates,
Dante, 'Shakspeare, Rousseau, Milton,
Wagner, Paganini, and so many more
that were I to name them all the
world would not be large enough to
contain the books in which they are
printed. Of course I'll admit that the
men who have been flayed by women

‘ rl‘Hl

have usually been greatly helped by .

women, and this sometimes accounts
for the 'flaying. But the point I make
is that all experience is good—the law
of compensation never res-ts and the
stagnation of a dead-level "happy mar-
ried life’ may not be any more to a.
strong man’s advantage than a long
course of stupid misunderstanding.
Milton bewailed the fact that he could
get freedom from marital woes on no
less ignoblc grounds than violating
his marriage vows. Milton did not get
his freedom. His wife sat on him.
silent and insensate, and so did her
whole family of seven persons. And
his sharp 'cry.made him the butt of
jibes and jeers innumerable. Milton
was an obscure school teacher and
clerk; but, if any of those great men
who sought to humiliate and defeat
him are mentioned nowadays in his-
tory it is only to say ‘they lived in the
age of Milton.’ ‘His life ruined by a
woman’—Pish! you flatter her; she
hasn’t the power. And the end of the
whole thing, brother, is, it doesn't

much matter what your condition in,

life is; all things are equalized. When
the prophet said, ‘God is good, and
his mercy endure’th from everlasting
to everlasting,’ he understood him-
self." '

Booth's' Dunstan-He'd Out.

Once upon a. time a printer brought
to Booth for inspection the proof of a

'new poster, which, after the : manner

or its kind, announced the actor as
“the eminent tragedian, Edwin Booth.”
Mr. Booth did not fully approve of it.

“I wish you’d leave out that emi—
nent tragedian’ business- I’d much
rather have it simple ‘Edwin Booth,’ "
he said. ' '

“Very good, sir.”

The next week the actor saw the first
of his new bills in position. His re-

_quest had been carried out to the let-

ter. The poster announced the coming

engagement of “Simple Edwin Booth." la
