having at . last hit upon that which is
most coufCiMdbfe, makes it most dainty
and assumes it for good. Very little

the preference . being given to cambric,

is finishod the e<! 50s have a triple scal-
lop or a s^arp, po' it embroidered in cot-
ton of the same color as the figure. This
materi^^ftliiib' simple finish, is liked
.for sack shaped chemises, for night-
dresses and for drawers. It is seldom,
if ever, nswtfdi* skirts.
The fanc^fbr silk nightdresses still
exists, out as there always have been
women who would wear nothing but the
clear y.-|h<4 Ijfwu .or nainsook, and as
these women are many, the makers of
underwear are specially catering hi
them. Very tnpch more fine work, that

WORDS NOT TO USE
Rb^ ^ayeuJt Tapestry.
Tap^v^vWas brought into general use
in western ^Etiyope, with many other
elegancies of life, by the Moors of Spain.
The oldest known specimen is the Bayeux
tapestry, an epic in embroidery, careful-
ly treasured for centuries in the cathe-
dral of Bayenx, and now preserved in
the hotel iJd6“ville of that place. Miss
Strickland sAys of this piece of work:
“It iis/l>evond all competition the
most wonderful achievement in the gen-
tle craft,TOl'vJteedlework that ever was
execntediby-fjfiir and royal hands.”
It was done by Matilda of Flanders
wife of William the Conqueror, and the
ladies of her court. It is a coarse liuen
cloth, 2144<jat long and 20 inches wide,
on which is worked in woolen thread ot
various .colors a representation of the
invasion and conquest of England by the
Normans: ,
It contains the figures of about 623
men, 200 horses, fifty-five dogs, forty
ships and boats, besides a quantity of
quadrupeds, birds, trees, houses, car-ties
and churches, all executed in the propet
colors, with names and inscriptions ovei
them to elucidate the story. It is a
valuable historic document, as it givesa
corrccj and minute portraiture of - the
Norman KAtumes and their manners
and customs.—WOman's Work.
Not as good as, for not so good as.
borne ten days; for abotffteb days.
Not as l know,-for not th^ l'knpiv.

Kind of, to indicate a moderate de.

ately.
Above, fur foregoing, more than or be-
yond.
Try an experiment, for make an ex-
periment.
More than you think for, for moro

Nice, indiscriminately. Real nice may
be doubly faulty.
Real, as an adverb, in expressions, real
good, for really or very gocd.
Singular subject with contracted plu-
ral verb: for instance, “She don't skate
well.”
.Ailments of ttie Ejci.
No organ of the.body is liable to a
greater varietyof ailments than the eye.
More thaiyTorty such diseases are enu-
merated iff medical works.
Some of these tend toward blindness,
partial or complete. Some are highly
contagious. Some are peculiar to the
earliest stages of infancy; some to old
age. Some are due to other diseases,
some originate with the eye itself; some
are the re|u|t of external wounds. Some
are brought on by the improper use of
the eye; some by the abuse of other or-
gans. Some are partially or wholly
curable; others are uot.
As we have two eyes, the loss of one
does neft materially affect the other.

A Novel Wager.
A pig is a very observant animal, and
when walking usually turns its head
from side to side to see what is going or.
around it. This well known habit lias
led to a novel wager in Belfast, .Me. A
man there, to win a bet of will at-
tempt to drive a pig a mile, and believes
that ho can so control the animal that it
will not once turn around to see the
driver.—Yankee Blade.
Whipped ills Twenty-onc-ycar-oId I’oy.
A Norwalk (Conn.) young man, twen-
ty-one years old, fell in love with and
insisted on “keeping company” with a
young woman in the neighborhood in ■
spite of his father’s violeut opposition.
Whereupon catching tho two together
on the street the other day, tlio irate,
father seized his son, bent him over, and
gave him a good old fashioned flogging.
--Philadelphia Ledger. . .......
The double ’provision is a wise and be-
nevolent one in the case of an organ ex-
posed to so many accidents from with-
out and so many diseases from within.—
Youth’s Companion.
A Professional Hoiisecleaner. ,
A woman in this city has a certain
number of customers, all of whom are
jiersons of wealth and willing to pay liei
well. She goes to the house of each
customer at stated periods and removes
all the furniture, curtains and pictures
from fhe drawing rooms. She then di-
rects the gleaning of the rooms and the
furniture, faking care that the latter is
not scratched or injured in tho handling,
and that all blemishes are removed by
careful oiling. All the furnishings are
then replaced according to her ideas. As
she has excellent taste, she manages t<.
create a good impression each time, but
never duplicates a setting. She suggests
the removal of unnecessary pieces or the
addition of odd bits that will fill opt hei
plan, and keeps the customer informed
in regard to the changes of styles.—New
York Sun.

ARRIVAL St DEPARTURE OF MAILS
Ititni11i anti tho Fountain of Youth.
Bimini was a fabulous island firmly
believed in by the Indians of the An
tilles, though they could give no further
clew to its location than that it lay some
hundreds of leagues north of Hispaniola.
On this island was the famous foun
tain of youth which had the power ef
restoring frouth and giving perpetual
health'and] vigor. It was the search foi
this fountain that led Ponce de Leon
and Hernando de Soto to Florida, on the
outskirts of which the island was gener-
ally supposed to be situated.—St. Louis

Where to Send Your JOB WOBK
Si
■;«v-t i*-i
One of the greatest aids you can give your Newspaper is yonr Job Work
\
print. The Newspaper man needs it, and it helps pay his printers for setting
up the 1001 free notices he gives you and your town; hut don’t go and give it
to any office that can give you no such return—in expending neither money,
time or brains in trying to help you build up your city. The time may come
when a Newspaper can live simply upon the revenue from Advertising and
Subscription, but no ordinary Newrpaper in any ordinary city can exist
without an auxiliary support derived trom Job Printing. Therefore if You
w ant a good Newspaper—one that can still further help Yon and the City,
give it Your Job Printing.—Las Vegas Optic.
