-J2Mrs. Cleveland wore a new
costume for every day she; spent
at her old college home, thereby
exciting the envy of many poor
girls. .
J5John Wanamafcer, of Phila
delphia, will soon reach his fif

City, press tendered him a ban
quet to celebrate the v occasion,
bufrMr.Wanamaker' has declined
the honor.
, ggJfMrs. Grace Deems has lost
the divorce suit against her hus
band, instituted by her..' She did
not even get judgment for costs.
She will now become a respon
dent in young Dr. Deem's suit for
divorce.
; gSiMiss Ramsey, of England,
daughter of Sir James Ramsey;
has gained a striking "victory at
Cambridge University. She is
the only person, male or female,
to reach the dignity of "senior
classic" in the recent - '"exami
nations. '..vjg'1 A point" as the term was
used frequently, in connection
with the recent coffee flnrry, is
one one-hundredth part of a
cent, this being the smallest frac
tion in which dealings in options
are permitted on the New York
Coffee Exchange.-
jgOf Senator -Evart's five
daughters only one remains un
married. His twin sons, one of
whom was married a few days
ago, are graduates of Yale and
were very popular while at col
lege. One of them was valedic
torian of his class, while his
brother stood very near the top.
Egg Among the visitors at the
Vassar College commencement
was a graduate who has made
$lO,oocrlin a unique manner.
Upon her graduation she was
promised by her father a doller
for . every cent she earned by
working at -anything. She ac
cepted the offer, and, ..entering - a
factory, where she obtained six
dollors,a week, kepi on-working
until her father had paid her $10,
000 and broke the contract be
cause his little joke was becoming
too costly.

than two years' continued busi

The results of Yn.nee - enterprise in.
pushing the Old Dominion forward to
wealth and r prosperity are nowhero
more seen than in the old town at whose
outskirts was fought the first battle of
the late war, writes a Manassas, Va.,
correspondent of the Cincinnati Eru
uircr. Abonta year n;;o a Connecti
cut peddler cane along, :ind while dis
posing of his pods conceived one of
those grand ideas which emanate only
from the, Yankee mind; llo rented a
storeroom, had representations of the
battle painted on the door, and adver
tised extensively in towns and cities on
the Virginia Midland railroad that he
had. a collection of precious relics from
the battle of Manassas w hich he would
sell at a low rate. About the - same
time he received several barrels and
bottles from Springfield, Ma?s.,and then
he was ready for business. ' When the
relic store was opened it looked like a
little arsenal.' Guns and . pistols of all
kinds and in every stage of decompose
tion hung on the walls or stood in the
windows; tattered battle-flags lay about
ia-confusion, and flattened bullets were
to be seen by the bushel. . - ,
Most relics w ere labeled with the date
of the discovery and other interesting
information about the relic hunters
twenty years in gathering the precious
mementos. As Manassas is situated at
the junction of the two railroads, ther
is daily a number of persons stopping
over for a few hours. Few of these can
resist the battle-scene and a look into
the queer shop. Once inside .they. are
sure to come away with some relics.for.
the Yankee can describe the battle so
vividly and speak with such pathos of
the poor fallen heroes to whom this or
that relic belonged that only a heart of
stone could hold out Within three
months after the opening of the store he
had to send to Springlield after anoth
er consignment of relics,1 but those did
not go off so readily, as rumors were
circulated casting a doubt over the or
igin. Still, a fair business was carried
on, and the Yankee is said to have
made such profits as will enable him to
retire in affluence like his predecessor
Dick Moon, which w why I remark the
results of 1 ankee enterprises in the
south are nowlieije mom seen than at
Manassas. -
Premature Wrinkles.
Wrinkles are as natural to old
aro
as is a full, smooth face to childhood
Alley are dtie, mainly, to a certain
shiiiikage of the muscles a shrinkage
which characterizes, more or less, tho
entire SA-stemau the later period. of
life.
" lt 13 in consequence of tliis general
'shrinkage that in advanced life the
height is somewhat-lowered; that tho
substance of. the jaws contracts, thus

nerves that pass through the bony ca-
nais, 10 severe ana diflicult neuralgia,

habits and. accumulated resources of a
lifetime, ai old man's brain would not
be equal to the work which he still per
forms easily."
There is, of course, much difference
between old i3ople in this respect,
which is due largely to temperament,
habits of thought and of feeling and
mode& of life. The papers lately told
01 a man over one hundred -vears old.
f-vifose face was wholly- without -wrin-

case. For the great body of us, if we
attain length of days, must take them

intelligence and kindly, sympathies, her
oeauty 01 character will have an attrac
tion far beyond beauty of face.
While wrinkles result from the natu-"
ral working of the system, they may
also be caused by a perverted condition
of the .system, as are pimples, blotches
and boils. Now the human face un
like that of. brutes was meant to be
the "mirror of the mind," , the - visible
expression of every passion, emotion
ni;d inmost feeling. Herein is its "chief
beauty.; llcnce its numerous muscles
and ntrves, whereby it is so wonder
fully ndjiiited to this end. But muscles

Hence habits of thought and feeling
become stamped on the face, and we,

sensual man, or- of the kind, the calm,

than the brow should bo at seventy.
Some of these may not have more cares
than others, but r they unnecessarily
