B "BAB'S" DISLIKE FOR M'KINLEY, a Hla Obnoxious Bill Raises the Price of Corsets. I I' A Talk Over the Teacups—Wo fers— Men But Babies of Ma Things Which Go Into Oblivion. [Copyflgbteil] •pacialCorrosprrulonc* ot On New York, Nov. 13.—It Years— his to let and Journal ouhl interest ine very much to know what the Republi can party have to do with corsets ! Why ■hould the McKinley bill raise the price corsets and pearl buttons ? Does it wish the women of the country to beeomo Shapeless creatures and to fasten their belongings with safety-pins ? As DUTIABLE? wny SHOULD CORSETS You is too 't put entire confidence in a Kfety-pin. It's the sort of a thing that has ■ will of its own, and it's safo or unsafe, ft desires. But to return _ .... ... Whut has lovely woman done to the Re publicans that the prie on the pink satin affairs, that u •ble stay to her? What has lovely woman, wuo can make or unmake politics at her will, done that the beautiful br« French stays should be raised in price, and be beyond the reach of respectability ex cept when represented by millionaires? Then, too, buttons. Every Republican Official should be forced to have colored China y the sets. ice should be raised i a verit To be All ded the shirt which is his pro tection by day or by night, for why should he decide the price of pearl butions. It would m a good idea to make him cat a lew of them just to see how they agreed 'With him at an advanced price. of The American rants the American Woman to look the best in the world; but if he continues to raise the price one •eta, she will be as shapeless as ; bag, and the women of every ot her coun try can jeer at her. Another* thing. Just the demoralizing effects , be of the very loose tea-gown, cause of its high price, more corsets, the women of the uatioi Will become a disgrace to it, all owing to the freshness of a few politicians (1 usually •void slang, but that word "fresh" comes In very well when With women's belongings), will all go straight to the demnition bow wows and sit around looking like geese being fatted for the prodigals. to take to fiddling y« THE WOMAN WITHOUT The moral of it is this: A woman who hasn't her stays on, they may be, 'is give lug herself in free and easy positions, that are very apt to suggest free nnd easy con versation. I know I am bringing down my bead the wrath of the people who believe that the devil and the corset combination. But, really, when do women tell matter how loo •h to throi , my friend, ch other a groat many tilings they had much better keep -to themselve? At night, when the corset is thrown aside, the easy wrapper assume and conversation is very confidential. 1 f woman were braced up with a well-fitting pair of stays, she would have too much S ride to tell her intimate friend of her usband's weakness; but BtaySj let her sit i emotions id, take off the y attitude, her i varied, she gets a little down, and she Bays what she oughtn't to say, and gives confidence that ought to be kept Tor her husband's ears alone. So you nog a great deal more than the Republic party dreams of depends on the cheapness of the well-fitting corset. WILL By-the-by, did y these ladylike gentlemen who wore long hair, gave one a large view of that piece of the apple that stuck in Adam's throat, which lie lias inherited, and who seems to Bpend his life in directing how beauteous .woman should be dressed ? He is accom panied always by the gentlemanly lady, who cuts her lmir short, wears a high, stiff, white collar, that, if she ever had any feminine white curves in her throat, hides them, and who is perfectly willing to endorse his views and give you a few liberal ones of her own. Nine times out of of ten she has written a book nasty topic, and she i 'happy as when she purity of the mind and the body inveigh ing against the vico of the corset, knowing that its influence is one of tho greatest factors toward decency and good behavior. It's just possible that some editor ; may think this is a tout for a corset house, 1 which jt isn't, for I get mine from the other Side, and consequently feel bitter toward anybody who wishes to raise the them, and I now announce that I •u „ P a >' ifc i wil1 smuggle, first, ell, there is some pleasure m thut. rer so perfectly talk about the di,t r VOM EN VER THE TEACUPS.

Under tho head of "A Glorious In auguration" the New York Tribune of last week cditorilly set forth its idea of the proper method of inducting Gover -elect lloswell P. Flower into office. The facetious wind-up of the Tribune's article will bo appreciated by every reader. After denying an imaginary re port that the governor-elect had con tracted for the erection of a rail fence in front of tho capitol at Albany, up to which ho was to ride solitary and unat tended, hitch his pony after the manner of Thomas Jefferson and be inaugurated without any ceremoney or frills, the Tribune's humorous editor continues : It was said that there guards of honor, no military trappings, troops of unterrified Democrats and uisitive children, no cannons, sabres bayonets, banners and The situation was painted light, and tho whole cc wealth was put in anticipatory mourning. But tho clouds have been suddenly riven usunder, and in the keen bright sunlight of publicity appears the authoritative nouncement that Mr. Flower's iuaugt tion will be worthy of the David Bennett Hill. Indeed, by way of compensation for the unnecessary anguish which has recently pervaded the populace, there is believe that the rites will be celebrated a scale of unparalleled grandeur aim mag nificence. The parudo will resemble u Homan triumph. Mr. Flower will bo seated in a chariot constructed so f; possible in imitation of of u If It. be . and trumpets, bass-drums.

One of the many provoking things with which tho night-worker has to tend in his daily struggle for sleep is the thin dividing wall between houses. The writer has been iu fine looking four story broil n stone front houses where a could hear his neighbor picking his teeth next door, and all because the builder wanted to and erect a dividing wall one brick thick, instead of putting up a double or hollow wall. The difference in cost is slight, but tho difference iu comfort is vast. This night-worker rented a little house in Brooklyn not long ago and had his landlord for next-door neigh bor. To the landlord he explained that lie was a uiglit-worker and needed quiet by day in order to get sleep. The land hud assured him that the dividing wail was sound proof or nearly so. The first morning that the night-worker came home unci went to Lis bed to sleep he thought there must be a baby in the house. Its squall seemed to come from the next room. It did, but that next room was in tho next house and the night-worker realized that he had been duped. lie aroso and had an interview with that landlord before breakfast. He got no satisfaction beyond that afforded i>v a free expression of his feelings. "Any ho is fool enough to work by night," said the landlord, "must accus tom 111mself to sleeping in all the noise that his neighbors choose to make by day." Then the night-worker decided to look up another house. He could not afford to pay the rent of two houses, however, and his land lord threatened to sue him for month's rent of the thin-walled house, as it came due, for a year. How could lie escape the obligation ? One of his friends was a lawyer. To him he went for advice. The lawyer told him that his plea of misrepresentation would not stand in law, because no guarantee of the sound-proof condition of the divi includcd in the written ray sorrowful. After considerable ponderiug, a bril liant thought. struck him. Another of his friends was a jeweler. From him he hired a lot of cheap but noisy al: clocks, which lie arranged on brackets along his side of the division wall. These were set to go off at frequent tervals between 10 p. m., the hour at which the landlord went to bed, and 3 a. m., the hour at which the night worker got home. Then tho night worker went to his office, and his wife went to pass the night with her mother. When the night-worker came home xt morning the landlord, with hag gard eyes and indignant looks, w waiting for him. "There's been the most infernal going on in your house all night, sir," he ejaculated angrily. "What on earth is it V" "Oh, that probably collection of clocks," night-worker pleasantly. "She lias a fad that few dollars A of in h ßlon lease. So he went •all w , I' my wife's swered the > know. Her colleo 100 different kinds." ay, y tion contains ov This was a lie, but tho perate.
