From the Lancet, There is a practice against which many per- sons, and particularly public speakers, need to be put on their guard—namely, drinking cold watery beverages in cold weather. The body becomes heated with the excitement and physi- cai and mental exertion of addressing crowded assemblies. Nothing {s more natural than to desire, under such conditions, a draught ef some cold beverage. Now, it happens that cold drinks are depressing In their influence, and the result of taking such draughts when performing more than common feats of strength and endo- ance, pecans in middle-aged and advanced life, is to lower the tone of the nerve centers at a time when it is most desirable that they should be in exceptionally good working order. so that they may retain thé vitality necessary to meet nnustal needs. So far as we are aware the physiological effect of iced potations taken has- tily when putting forth special sti h and making a peculiarly large demand on the vital force of the nervous system is eithér not under- stood or is forgotten. Por the sake of the many zealous statesmen and politicians who do not setm to have given the need of special pre- esutions In this particular a single thought, it is desirable to point out that-the worst illnesses may, and do, proceed apparently from insignifi- cant causes. This is one of the petty causes which may give rise to sad seguits, back, wing: | *La Travi some one | ing there wes | that he | and by they will | st things in the | AUTOCKATS OF THE NEEDLE. | High and Wighty Dressmatrers, With a Dissertation About the Bustle.

Words and speeches, like those of Shakespeare, are delivered with infinitely more | effect when the stage Is less Incumbered, for there is less to distract the attention. Modern | scenery is now constructed on the “building-up” principle. Great houses and other buildings, streets, &c., are all constracted in their actual form, and drawn on the stage by numbers of men, and, asonescene doesforan act, thereis sufficient time to rear these edifices. The “cloth” is but | rarely used, perhaps because it looks poor and | | ridiculous in company with so much solid mat- | ter. Rut is not this “building-up” systein really opp ed to the illusion of the stage? The stage is but a small area, under the most favorable conditions, reaching to some forty to iifty feet in width, by, say, a hundred feet in length. In this contracted space the scene-builder proposes to exhibit a market-place, for instance, in an Italian city, Houses, fountain, flights of stairs, streets—ail are brought togetier in one view. In real life only a fragment of these thingscould | be seenut once trom the same point. Possibly it | may be said that at the distance at which the spec- | tator is seated, the eye would take in all the ob. | jects named. But ‘then they would be far smalier and more indistinct, according to the rules of perspective. ‘fhe’ living figures would supply the scale of proportion. "As it is, the arrangement is all at fault. For these “built-up” structures are on a miniature scale, | the tallest house being only some four of five | times the height of tie performer. It is like the apparition of a human fac in a puppet | show. It may, perhaps, be urged that we see something of tie effeet of this Telief in alto re- liecos on the sides of monuments, where a scene with houses and figures, raised a few inches, produces an effect. But here the perspective is simulated, the byildings, &c., are sloped at various angles. They are actually on the plane, ora flat, whereas the theatrical relief recedes’ as in reality. The whole is, in short, an attempt to combine the conditions of reality with the conditions of tlusfon. —— +. ___ How Men and Women Fall. It is interesting, says the Providence Star, to notice the various ways in which people fall when the walking is bad. Stand by any slip- pery place and watch them. The'ayerage man, when he feels himself going, begins to struggle, throws up his arms wildly, kicks in the alr as if trying to make a record, and then fails with his back twisted all out of shape, and so lame that he will wear a porous plaster a month. A man always knocks his hat off—and usually falis on it—sticks his arms into the snow, and if there are any bystanders near pulls one or two of them down with him, When a woman falls she always siaais and then falls in all sorts of ways and shapes. If she has bundles in her arms she throws them in every direction. There are men, however, who know how to go down. as they should. When they feel themselves ing, or know that the “line of direction fis fallen without the base,” they glance about for a snow bank and simply drop into it. There ta no fuss, no confusion, no noise. All is done quietly, and they are never hurt. When nature gives us such a soft bed of snow to fall on there ig no reason why we should not take advantage of It. ——_——+e-_____ A Confused Clergyman, ‘From the Chattanooga Times, Anamusing marriage ceremony occurred at Stanley on Sunday. A couple. presented them- selves, and the minister, somewhat confused, proceeded to unite them. Speaking to the woman he said: “Do you take this man to be our husband?” &c., and, turning to the man, ie said: “Do you ‘ake thia woman to be your husband?” an the man answered, without seeming to know the difference, “Yes.” This minds one of the negro oak in rainy weather I marry man together.” | wards the HIGH LIFE IN NEW YORK. The Way “Society People” in theGreat Metropolis Keep Up Stylish Appear- ance. From the New York World, Few of the guests who attended the larze re- ception at Mrs. G.’s last week know of that lady's struggles to keep up appearances and the devices she resorts to at the entertainment. But Miss G. must absolutely make her debut this season, and so that very enterprising woman, her mother, resolved to give a fine re- ception. The dresses, coming directly from the fash- ionable modistes, did not have to be paid for at once. Those settled for, the collation was the next subject of anxiety. and this was managed no great expense, although it had to come Irom one of the m famous caterers. Four hundred invitations had been Issued; it wassafe to assume that 200 would be likely to attend, and refreshments were ordered for 100. Onsueh occasions the caterer of course must make lib- eral calcultions on the subject of appetites. What the caterer felt on the subject will never be known, but perhaps long custom had ha- bituated him to such tricks, forthey are by no means confined to the poorer of society peopie. An ont-cf-town wedding took place in the fall, at which the bride was the only daughter ofa wealthy banker, and the crowd which as- sembled at both church and house was composed of the elite of New York. It numbered some | 400, all of whom partook of the sumptuous. col- lation which had been ordered for 300. After- terer wrote to the lady who had en the order saying that as refreshments had been served to 100 more people than the esti- mate had been given for he thought it only fair that 400 should be paid for. This, however, by no means suited the ideas of the banker's wife, who positively refused to pay for more than the 300. Carpet, dry goods and china dealers also suf- fer at the hands of these socially ambitions peo- ple. Last week a lady entered the store of a large china arid glass importer and selected a handsome set of desert-plates, to be sent home on approbation. She wanted, she said,to see them on the table by gaslight.’ They were each ornamented with a different hand-paiating and were valued at €100 per dozen. ‘That evening a dinner party was given at the lady's 5th avenue residence, and the guests looked adin ly at the di porcelain which held their grap but the next day the plates were returned to the store. “They did not suit,” the boy was told who called for them, and, strange to say, on the brown-stene steps he met a boy from’ another china establishment who had jnst had a large pyramid ahd aset of highly ornamented cande- Jabra returned to him. That afternoen when the aggrieved man met his friend, the well-known carpet-dealer, whose establishment Is but a few bloc recounted his experience of the upon him, the carpet ma that he had had innum played on him. “Why, only Iast month,” he said, “as many as eight of imy finest Oriental ruzs, several of which were worth a thousand dollars or more, figured at a fashionable reception. In the morning a lady drove up to the store amd entering made a choice of all these beautiful carpets, which she thought would Just about suit her rooms. They were to be sent at once and the following day I could ascertain if they all suited. Well, the next day they were ail returned. but that evening they were very much admired by the guests, more than one of whom felt no little envy fur the owner of such treasures. . “Once I sent _a number of fine portteres to a house to see which best suited the parlor and dining-room furniture. Those, too, were re- turned after the reception. So you see your ex- perience is quite a common one.” Dealers in bronzes and_ other works of art are sometimes similarly victimized, but perhaps the dry-coods men have the worst time of all. Often have rich imported costumes been sent to the house and worn before being returned, and in the case of bonnets and fine Jace shawls this is no uncommon occurrence. Many are the “*p fect loves of bonnets” which are worn to after- noon receptions or teas, and atterwards re- turned. One woman v store used to have suits for her boys sent home, as well as cloaks and bonnets for herself. Final- 1, rk had his iH aroused by the fact one of the bo: ery slightly vd, ‘The ease Was reported and the woman as made to for the clothes. and no more es were ‘on appre jon” to her hou. er, Was perhaps an extreme case, aid not hold the same exalted social po- jon of the other ladies referred to. .

While he amused himseif wking faces in the hall looking glass, she cut a er patten of the cloak. then seat it down. She bought some material very much the same, and her “imported” garment attracted more than slight attention. ‘The very fact that these women are able to do such things proves eir credit to be excellent, for, of course, otherwise the goods would not be eit to them. Some of them are very wealthy, d,one would imagine, had no excuse for such actions. A good many of these people, who think nothing of such tricks, would shrink from any act of open dishonesty, but that even this is not always the case _is proved by the pre- vailing fashion of having detectives not only to guard wedding presents put to keep the guests from picking up pieces of rare and curious bric- a-brac which may adorn the parlors. An old lady was heard to say the other day that on her return from each of her numerous European tours she had brought home enough ittle ornaments to fill all the tables and stands of her drawing-room, but gradually they disap- peared. The pieces taken showing that the thief had been some person of educated taste. Perhaps itison the whole just as well for those who do not belong to the fashionable New York society, where every one, it would seem, suspects their friends and acquaintances of de. signs on their property. From the Philadelphia Call, The morning after the Vanderbilt ball, a gen- tleman entered a prominent jewelers establish- ment on Broadway and sald, “I would like to look at some diamonds.” “Diamonds? Yes, sir,” replied the clerk in rather an embarrassed manner. “Er—couldo’t you drop in after din- ner?” No,” said the gentleman, “I am obliged to leave town. Why can’t I see them now as well as after dinner?” ‘Well, to tell you the truth,” responded the clerk, confiden- tially, haven't any to speak of in the store; they were all rented out for the Vanderebilt ball last evening.” +e. Struck Oil, Tt was a Woodward avenue car, says the De- troit Free Press. A lady richly-dressed sat ina corner of the car and said to some one with her: “I smeil kerosene oil.” “So do 1,” answered her friend. One after another gof into the car, and the lady in the car sniffed suspiciously, and at last fixed her eyes upon a quiet looking little man near the door. “I believe he’s got the ofl,” she said ina stage whisper to her friend. “I know it,” replied tne friend. ‘There ought to be a law against carrying kerosene in the street cars. Such an odor!” and she glared at the little man. “T shall inform the superintendent,” said the first lady aloud. “T shall inform the president of the road,” said her friend, with a fixed and glassy stare. “Ladies,” said the little man cheerfully, “hadn't you better move?
