About twenty young ladies and gentlemen were present and enjoyed the hospitality of Miss Nellie's home. A number of young people whose delight is in dancing the "light fantastic" assembled at the home of Frank Monroe's last Friday evening and made merry, keeping stepto the ever persnavine strains of the kiDg of instruments. Our school board, which consists of Messrs. Weirman, Otis and Snod-grass have hired our teachers for the coming year.

MARBLE GAINS FAVOR. I nnl at Thic! Here oes the bottom LUlM dl I lllb! out of Prices Having determined to again lead all my competitors in futu re as in the past, I will do business from now, on for cash and scrip only. I wiil and must be the leader in low prices, all others must follow. Carefully examine the following and see if you can not do as well with me or in ordering from Kansas City takiug freight into consideration: Irreparable Injury Done by Tight Lao- It is matter for rejoicing that fashion is no longer to decree a slender as something indispensable to propriety and grace. The natural waist of the woman of average height is about 23 inches, and any less size is attained only through arrested development, or compression of means of whalebone and steel.

The amoun of room inside these 28 inches is absolutely needed for the proper working of the machinery of the internal economy, la spite of this fact girls very often bind the yielding ribs into such narrow compass that the waist measures 20 or 22 inches only, and you will now and then hear some mother of a family, with a very different waist now, boast as if it were something to be proud of that when she was 19 her waist measure was 19 too. It is, however, of no use to talk to young people about the injurious effect of compression on stomach, heart, lungs, liver and the arterial system. They are not anatomists, and they do not comprehend the matter iior vant to do so; they observe that they feel as well now as they did before, and without weighing the thought that it requires time to work 1 uin, take it for granted that they always will feel as well, although they have been told and taught that in post-mortem examinations it has been found that wherever tight lacing has been the rule, every organ was out of place and seriously injured. But although it does move them a trifle to be told that red noses and eruptive skins and flat chests are to be laid to the account of the too slender waist, yet on the whole neither common-sense nor auld-wife wisdom nor doctors have the power of conviction that fashion does, and when fashion says that there is no beauty in a wasp's waist, but that the lines of nobility and health made by deep breathing are the really lovely lines, fragility being something rather to be feared than loved, why then fragility begins to be avoided, and the lines of the Venus de Milo, of the Diana, of the Pallas, begin to come in. The habit of tight lacing has already done almost irretrievable injury.

If it were continued there is no knowing what shape it might eventually have developed Even no sculptors declare that a model with a natural waist, sloping outward rather than 5 award, is something not to be found, even the most charming figures otherwise having the hour-glass tendency, in however slight a form sufficient to spoil them for posing for anything demanding the freedom, the beauty and grace of the antique. The Greek woman supported and stayed herself with bands of linen, but there was no compression in the swathe, and her natural wuist made her of a perfect beauty; and to-day the natural waist of the Circassian does not interfere with the reputation of her loveliness. The adoption of European dress by ladies of the harem, and of Japan, showing, as it does, either a want of the knowledge of true beauty or a willful abandonment of its principles, will probably lead to tight lacing in the orient just as we are relinquishing it here. Why anyone should ever have imagined that jji waist which looked as if it were goiSfg to break in two could be more attractive than a waist which looked capable of supporting its head and arms and shoulders is a mystery bo great a mystery that the effort, to solve it is to be given up in satisfaction over the report that the foreign creators of the mode have recently asked themselves the question if the shape that the Creator chose tor the human body was one they could improve.

Garey reports many cases of illness in our vicinity, some quite serious, but if there is a shadow of a chance for recovery our faithful physician will soon have them around again. According to announcements a Bryan club was organized here Monday evening. It is the first club of Sculptured Rusts Take the Pluce of Paintings. Busts are taking the place of oil portraits in the family art galleries prepared for posterity. In them are shown better the figure, features, pose, expression, size and style than in the canvas.

They lack color only, but in looking at a bust the absence of color is not noticed if the bust be artistically planned; and for posterity the sculp-tored marble is in greater favor than the framed picture. It will bear more ill-usage, and, like the Venus de Milo, will live for hundreds of years, going through fire and water and lying buried in the earth without serious impairment. Men and women artists both are doing the marble sculpture work. Their favorite patrons consent to sit for them at first for casts because urged to do so. When they see the plaster cast, chasto, refined and clear in all its outlines, a presentment of themselves, they readily give a commission for a marble bust.

The artists who do sculpturing are many. Several have achieved national reputations. Kuehne Keveridge did Cleveland and Corbett. Mrs. Huneker has done Mrs.

James Brown Potter, th3 actress, and many Washington -women. One New York artist has made marble busts of all the leading Wall street men, casting them at leisure from mud impressions made while they were working at their desks. His tools are a batch of clay, a broad', flat knife, a handful of sharp modelers and a bundle of wet rags for keeping the clay moist. He works while the Wall street man is dictating his letters, getting a side view then. Later he molds rapidly when conversing with the man face to face.

The buck of the head is done at luncheon time, when the head is mcv. ing, to get all the life-lines, and for the last touches the busy magnate of the streets consents to wall; around the room for a few minutes, stopping to view himself and criticise the work of the modeler's hands. Modeling a bust is easy work for the first 15 minutes. In that time the head takes shape with quick pats of the hands. A sweep of the clay hollows out the eyes, a lump of clay molded long, like a lady finger, stands for his nose, and a sharp stroke leaves the chia free.

The throat is done by a strangling process of the fingers and the shoulders spatted like a pat-a-cake jnto broad, round shape. That is what it all looks like to the spectator. And the bust bears a quick resemblance in outlines to the person. Here, when the first resemblance is gained, the work of the pat-a-cake man stops and the touches of the real artist begin. In a certain library there is a bust of Peter Cooper that was molded for the 20th time before it suited the artist.

After it suited him it was molded again to suit the family. An extra stroke upon the cheeks flattened them too much, and the lack of a stroke had left too much hair on top of the head. Thn same with the molding of the busts of the brokers. It was tedious work to bo done many times. X.
