O,pv 'A PRETTY WOMAN, EssentiAls of Beauty as Enumerated by an Expert of To-day. What is essential to a protty wo man? Hero is the answer as given by a modern'beauty expert: A pretty woman,'tirst of all, must have clearly cut, regular features. She must have a skin above re. proach, untouched by rouge or powder. She must have full, clear eyes. She must have eyelashes long and curling upward. She nust have eyebrows. finely marked, slightly arched, long and nar row; yet the narrow line should be thickly covered, o as to be well mark. ed, as if pencilled. She must have a straight nose, yet delicate, neither fleshy, nor paintod, nor broad at the tip, with the nostrils free and flexible. She must have a mouth rather too liurge than too small, with lips full and plunip and rosy red. Eveni an ox (lulsitely shaped mouth has no chara without expression. She must have even, regular tooth; of indoerate size, poarly white, with full enamel. She must have a chin neither sharp nor blunt, but gently undulating in Its line, round and cushlony, turning a little upward, with a dimple in it. She must have a small, delicate jaw, not large and angular, which gives a hard, domineering look. She must have a throat round, full and pillar-like-a marble column to support the head. She must have glossy hair that has never known the touch of bleach or dye. -iho must fully understand what best suits her in the way of hairdressing, and cling closely to that style. She must have small, delicate, com pact cars of a shell-likO shape. She must have a forehead smooth, even, white, delicate, short and of an opn, trustful character. Ariosto says "of terse ivory was the Joyous brow." She must have a long and dencate hand, yet plump, with tapering fingers, the tips of which, when resting on the palm, should turn back a little. She must have a nail "transparent like a ruby among pink roses"-not long, not round, nor altogether square, but of a fair shape, with a white cros cent visible at the base. She must have a foot not too small, but proportioned to the stature it sup ports; white, well arched, with a curved outline and a smooth surface. She must have an arm with a round and flowing outline, no sharpness at the elbow, and tapering down gently to a small wrist. She must'have sloping shoulders, not 'oo- 1road. She must have a waist twice the size of her throat, not, as fashion has too often made it, nearly the same size. She must have hips high and wide. She must have a good figure, plump enough, yet slender enough, though never suggestive of an angle. She nust know how to poise the bo(ly, in other words, how to stand correctly. She niust know how to sit without being stiff-waisted. She must possess the pose and ro. poise that nark the "daughter of a hundred earls." She must have a gait which may be likconed to thlat of a Diana following the hounds. She mnust know how to climb stairs, also ho0W to come dowvn stairs, grace full, without an1 attemp~t to push holes in the steps. Rhe nmust have a flexible, vibrant, caressin~g, tender, poetic, crystalline voice. She miust know ho0w to put on her clothes, or she loses half lher beauty. A wvoman may have all thlese attrac tions-be either dark or fair, tall or short, slender- or full formedi, grave or piquant, majestic or vivacious, serene or brilliant-anld unless her own per sonality is chlarmiing, unless she has tact, it dawns on you, after you have seen her OnIco or twice, that she is not a pr'etty woman, but a pretty doll. The Cost of a Conclave. "What is tile cost of a Conclave?" The qluedian was asked yesterday of a well-known clergyman, and this was is reply: "That of 187M, which resulted in the elect'ions of leco XIII, involved two bills, one of $11,754.28 for carpentera' and masons' work, locksmiths, paint ers, gas, glaziers, and electric bells; tile other of $4,000 for fitting up the Sistine C.hapel. But this was dirt' cheap compmred wvith theo figures for sonme preceding conclaves. That of 1831, whenO1 Gregory XVI. was elected, cost $14i1,756.18, anld the elections of l'inn Viii. and Leo XII. were respon sible for $127,702 aind $98,425, respec tively. These conclaves all took lace during the last cenitury; but before thlat p~eriodl conclaves were both long er and mlor'e frequent, so that it was found necessary on several occasions to limit bieforeohand. the expenditure on a papal election. Thus, Alexander VIII. limited the nuumlber of the fune tionaries of the Conclave and cut down t hem- emlolumecntsl and perquisites." P'hihulclphia l'ress. A small girl of four- was accosted by a lady ini the neighlbor-hoodi: "Good mlornling, Susie. I henar your grand mammlana is comling home to-day. You'll no glaid, won't you?"

"When a man is just aching to do somethling mighty mean, and is afraid to do it," said Uncle Alien Sparks, "he0 always says he'd do it for 2 cents."-Ohicago Tribune.
