Her Lesson. Youth's Companion: The wife of a prominent citizen, a year or two ago, was turning over a box of jewels, when she drew out a string of opals. “I value that necklace above my rubies or diamonds;” she said to a friend. Her companion looked at them, “Why, they are not real!” she ex- claimed. S know; o poor imitation. But I will tell you their story, and you will understand why I value them; My husband, when I married him forty years ago, was a poor school teacher in n western town. We lived for a year happily in a plain little house, keeping within our means. We had a few good friends, intelligent, unpretentious peo- ple, whose habits were as simple as our own. We met them often at quiet din- ners or teas, in which there were no display, but hearty cordiality and much real enjoyment. “But I had a secret ambition to enter a rich and fashionable set in the town, though I saw no way to accomplish it. At last, the mother of one of my hus- band’s pupils, a wealthy and influential woman, asked us to a reception which fho gave. I was greatly excited; ex- nmined again and again my black silk gown and lace collar, wondering how they woula look among the other rich costumes. “One day, passing a shop, Isaw in a window this necklace of opals. Ah,if I could own such magnificence as that! I went in to look at them more closely, and asked the price. ““Twenty dollars,’ the man replied. ‘They are paste, of course,” he added, ‘but only an expert could detect it.’ “Twenty dollars! Why could T not take the money we had Iaid by for the rent? It would be supposed, I reasoned, that the jewels were worth thousands, and consequently my right to enter fashionable society would be settled. For 1 was so ignorant that I thought gocial position depended on dress. “I bought the necklace. Then I con- vinced myself that it nceded a hand- gome gown to set it off. I bought, on credit, a pale-blue satin, white slippers and gloves, and all the aceessories of an evening toilet. I kept it all a secret from my husband. “He knew nothing of my purchase until I took off my cloak at Mrs. Blank’s, and appeared before him in all my cheap splendor, the opals encireling my bare neck. I shall never forget his look of amazement and disgust. “We entered the drawing room. To my dismay I found all the ladies in dark, rich dresses and hats which they would have worn on the street. As I walked through the rooms I detected looks of curiosity and amusement on the faces of some of the loast well bred among them, My hostess received me with cool civilty, but made no attempt to intro- duce me to her other guests. ““As soon as I could escape 1 fled to the dressing room, full of shame and miser Two ladies were in the next room and through the open door I heard one ask: “Who is that woman 1n’ cheap satin with a string of paste opals about he, neck?” ‘*‘She is the wife of a poor teacher down town,” answered the other. ‘She is trying to push hevsell into socicty. Her husband is a respectable, sensiblp man, they say. I pity him.’ “Wo went home,” I was surely the wretchedest woman in the village, It needed two years of hard saving and work to pay for that night’s folly. n was o hard one, butit my life. Ihave kept the paste opals, and whenever I have been tempted to make a display on false grounds, I look at them and go back to reality and common sense, Do you wonder that I say they are worth more to me than rubies and diamond?” Joy for Florists. This is going tobe a flowerseason, The Prench posies that are ready to bloom on hats and bpunets are the most exact copies of nature yet attempted. There are carnations, cowslips, mig- nonette, hop blossoms, wood mosses, roses. with buds and thorned leaves, trailing arbutus, spring beauties, coral sprays, laurel bunches with specimens of nearly all the spring and summe bloomers, Fruit and vegetables for- tuxmtv\" have gone out of date in mili nery. Tomatocs und cauliflowers have lost their places on the feminine head- gear, though chestuut burrs are a pretty substitute, A Clever Woman, A clover young womau is building up a business of a somewhat novel charac- tor in New York and Brooklyn. Tr eling agents have long made a good thing out of antigue furniture picked up on excursions in the wilds of rural New Hampshive or Conuecticut, including farmors’ wives to ransack their attics and bring out mirrovs that only wanted regilding, or brasa-handled chests of drawers in want of pothing but polish and varnish w0 fetch round from modern worshippers of a-brace gone by, The best fug grouuds for such things, ously enough, has been overlooked almost entirely. New York and Brook- lyn, as things go in this country, are ancient cities. There are low-browed Duteh homesteads within ‘the limits of the former city, and old houses on See- oud avenue, in the Washington square vogion aud on Fifth avenue itself, in New York, which ouly noed to yield up their treasures to delight all the lovers .

This young woman has begun aseries of tours among the stately old mansions sunk to second-class boarding houses, or gone "l t further on the road to m\fi;lnrl and decay, and when she finds a relic of past grand . she rehabilitates it and intro- duces it to an art lover or & curio lover or o person ambitious of the repute of an art or curio lover—with money. An old ebony cabinet, inlaid with mother of pearl, an old dressing table, with a tray of Sevres let into the top, an old chair covered with Frebeh flowered satins of the early years of the century, these are grand dukes in banishment to be restored to their lost estate. It is a pleasant business for a young woman with some knowledge, a good eye and bettor judgment, and she makes it prof- itable. The Cost of a Young Girl to Dress? Brooklyn TPimes: Take the case of one of this senson’s debutantes sitting down for a Lenten mediation amid wreck of muslins and the crash of tulles considering the transitory nature of all things earthly-<and the need of a new Easter wardrobe. Reckon the number of swell dances to ‘which she has been, divide the number by two and you have the number of tulle gowns she has had. Multiply 200 by the number of tulle gowns and you have the approximate cost of the tulle gowns. Simplicity is the inflexible rule for the debutante. Yes, and white tulle is cheap by the yard, But to each tulle gown goes a silk sl and skirt upon skirt of tulle, one outside another,ballet dress fashion, until the requisite airy, butterfly appearance is produced. Add ribbon sash, gloves, &c., and there is your 200, One crush, two average dances,three small affairs with care and the tulle gown is tulle tatters. There is #8500, say. for a winter’s beginning. Reckon for other more or less formal occasions three or four white gowns. There has been yarer probably an em- broidered India muslin, a gown of ivory cloth with delicate tracery of gold,asoft white silk of some description, and maybe a dotted net over silk. These come to from $500 to 3700 more. The debutante has been to several afternoon teas. That means o couple of plain pet- ticoats, one in copper color, the other in cadet blue, say, with draperies and bod- ices of Lincoln green and French gray. Put down $200. The debutante has been walking and ealling. That means a couple of tailor gowns. Put down $250. She has been to the theater. Th means very possibly something in silk the color of a wild rose petal; looso wrinkled waist; the folds meeting in a point in front setting off the girlish slimness. Pink satin ribbon fastened on the left shoulder with aMarguerite clasp, carried under the right arm, then hanging loose with lace fan dangling from the end; string of pearls about the throat; pink bonnet. Put down 8$125. An afternoon reception costume, a din- ner dress, a lace gown or two for all sorts of wear, nondescript useful gowns. Put down $300. The bills mount up and yet no mention has been made of hats, bonnets, wraps, jackets, coats, parasols, underwear, shoes, gloves, laces, et cetera. PPut down not less than $1,000, and call the total $3,000. Itlooksahigh price for a winter’s enjoyment, but *papa ho foots the bills, with more or less cheerfulness; has very -possibly paid more for a picture or a horse. A Notable Gathering. The international council of woman to be held in Washington this month will be the first gathering of its sort ever held. Of notable Englishwomen will be present Helen Taylor, the step- daughter of John Staurt Mill, who has served on the English sbhool board and has made some valuable contributions to the literature of social and politi economy; Mrs. Millicent Fawcett, the widow of the blind postmaster general, to whose influence was largely owing the extensive employment of women in the english postofiices, and whose vol- umes ou political economy contain much that is worth reading; Mrs. Dilke, the owner of the Disp: newspaper, and a well-known lecturer, and Henrietta Mullen, a Girten girl, and now on the London school board.

Two Nice Young Ladies, Philadelphia North American: About a week ago two fashionably dressed pretly young girls called upon Quarte master George G. Felton, who has charge of the Sixth regiment armory, and asked him what he would arge them for the use of the armory building for an evening. The hundsome qu termaster asked them for what purpose they wanted to use the building. Upon being informed that it was to be used for o leap year party, Mr. Felton fixed the price at $25. The date was arranged for last evening. Everything was agreed upon, and the two fair and dash- ing damsels, after introducing them- selves as Miss Budgett and Miss McGin- niss, bade Mr. Ielton good-day, and departed. They next went to all of the newspaper offices in Camden and had the proposed party noticed. With the tickets sold and those distributed there were a great many people who expected 10 sco something new in- the shape of o leap-year party. Last evening came, and the men, women and children who had prepared to attend the affair bezan to collect around the armory’s main entrance when Janitor Charles Buc put in an appearance. *‘Buckv.” as he s familiarly called, was startled when he saw the crowd, and began to inquire what it all meant. *“How about the leap-year pa was the response of at least 100 voices to his question, The f. nitor went into the building, where 1o soon learned the facts of the case. He then came out and explained to the crowd that Mis Budgett and Miss McGinnissi had failed to put in an ap- pearance und pay for the building, con- sequently Mr., Felton had refused to light it up. A New Flower ¥ Chicago New hang up in th ngle.

There is a deal of 3 sentiment in lines, the s but & little faded flower, But oh, so foudly dear, while, in fact, there's neither senti- ment, perfume nor beauty in a bunch of dried roses ora posy from. which the life has been pressed. The dear girls are now preserving the fragrance of their flowers and the fragrance of a bower is its soul in rose jars, They make them in potpourri. A potpourri jar now has place in_every properly ap- pointed boudoir. Pretty &nnm and Japanese jars are generally used, The majority !»ul the petals into g]{oeflne. to which is added perfume and spice.

Rose leaves must be tised for'the foundation, a8 no other flower will hold the flavor of itsell. Alternate the layers of the roso leaves and salt, pressing the salt down upon the leaves.

Woman Soldier. Chicago Herald: Much interest is centered at present in Mrs. Hooker, a well-known lady here,who has appeared before the pension board and mnAo for- mal claim to a pension, based on the fact that she was an enlisted soldier of the late war, served three years, and was “twice wounded by buflets from the encmy’s guns.” ‘At the breaking out of the war Mr. Hooker was appointed first lieutenant and his wifeaccompanied him to the front. She wasenabled to do this by a clever piece of strategy. A young man who bore some resemblance to her was induced to submit himself to the necessary examination, and when an opportunity presented itself the young woman, properly uniformed, exchanged R\nco! with him. With her husband she as d here several years, and is familiarly known as ‘‘Colonel” Hooker. The outcome of her claim is looked for- ward to with much curiosity. She Whipped Him, New York Worid: In Montgomery, Ala., a few days ago, Mrs. French, a re- spectable widow, resides in the western suburbs of the city, created quite a sen- sation by , publicly cowhiding a young man named Oates, who runs a grocery store in the neighborhood. About month ago Mrs. French went to Oates’ store and forbade his selling liquor to her son, Milburn Johnson, a fast young man, and it seems that he gave no heed to the instructions. She went to the store and found her son and Oates gambling at a game of cards. She cov- cred Oates with a cocked pistol in one hand, wielded a. cowhide with the other and gave him a drubbing. = She scooped in all the money in the pot and put it in her pocket, saying that it was hers any- how. She gave the youbg man abouta dozen licks. The Proper Caper for Gir Mail and Express: Some years ago it was a rare thing to hear a young lady whistling, but now nearly every hcuse- hold has a young daughter that goes about the house trying 1n’ a eoice far niente way to imitate the birds, re- member the time when it was considered unvefined for a young lady to stle, aud the mother always chided her by repeating the very trite lines about a “‘whistling woman and a crow- ing hen never coming toa good end. All that is changed now, I mean among social circles in the large cities, and the mother and father are just as. proud. of their dayghters’ whistling accomplish- ments as they used to be of their skill as musicians. The mandolin, guifar and banjo for the present are relegated to the back stairs of unpopularity to make room for the new craze. L know a young lady who can whistle a Waldentfel waltz with such sweetness of exprossion that her listners are charmed. Her beautiful lips seem princi?‘all - con- structed for waltz time, for she, 3085 no other peces as well. It takes practice, confidence and ural gift to attain the highest rung of the ladder as a whistler. Mrs. Shaw is the great diva and stands unrivalled. In afew yearsall the young ladies will be better whistlers than the young men. & On the Cowcatcher. What might have proved a fatal acci- dent occurred a few days agoon the New Brunswick railway about a mile below Fredericton. As the St. John train inward rounded a sharp curve En- gineer Donaldson saw a woman coming toward the train and only a few feetin front of him. He instantly reversedthe lever and put on the brakes, but before the train could be halted the coweateher had siruck the unfortunate woman. The engineer jumped off, expecting to see the woman's mangled remains bencath the engine wheels, but, strange to say, he discovered her sitting almost upright on the cowcatcher, with her feet on the flanger, but in an unconseious condition. She was taken aboard the train and brought to the depot, where her injuries, which consisted of several cuts on the body, head, and hands, were dressed.
