"It is very curious about that re port. I have been made sick by various newspapers at various times. and first and last have been made toj have nearly every malady that I know of. I have had Bright's disease, ty phoid fever, torpid liver, affection of the heart, paralysis, nervous debility, and, well, I don't know, but at any rate a good many other diseases. As I said, it is curious how these stories start. I have, in fact, been singularly free from sickness. I have had hardly a sick day in my life; never anything serious, nnd I never had any organic trouble of any kind." Mr. Blaine positively declined to talk about politics, except that while in conversation with the correspond ent in his cottage at Bar Harbor, he said in regard to the Burchard inci dent in 1884: "I did not hear what he said, but the reporters heard it, and tho next day every paper in the country had it, of course, but, as a matter of fact, I did not hear it myself. Why, out in Indiana they had it that I seconded the remark. It went all over the state, and in a good many -places in the west they had slips of paper printed with, 'Bead what Mr. Blaine says,' on them, and distributed them in front of churches on Sunday. That is what lost me the election. You know, of course, how close it was. Well, in New York city alone it lost me several thousand votes. Ajjood deal more than enough to have car ried the state. I have never felt sure that I was not elected. It was a matter of less than 600 votes to have turned the eleotion the other way. When it is as close as" that there can be no certainty of the count. I do not think that it can ever be said with certainty which one of us really got the most votes." Brace Up.

Method andjApparatus to Make Yourself Pretty When You are Not Born So. With the very latest notes on fash ion before me and my pen suspended, my eyes fell upon an article which lay upon my desk entitled "Gossip about pretty girls." It gives tho modus operandi of making one's self beautiful, aud goe3 on to toll how a ruddy blonde of Washington fastened her fat littlo hands to the headboard on retiring, oo as to reduce the sap ply of blood and produce the delicate complexion of an invalid friend. To allow the mouth to bo open in sleep is simply outrageous; so, to assure an avoidance, many a dainty miss woos Morpheus with her lower jaw and head closely bound with a skate strap. A narrow pillow placed ver tically under the back and between the shoulders encourages a perfect stature, so tho good old bolster is consigned to the comfort of retired belles and beaux. Disregarding the fair, fresh skin, classical mould, and every law of proportion, and in defer ence to an arbitrary fashion which cannot but prove fatal to beauty and health, our wasp-waisted belles claim the necessity of slumber corsets to retain their acme of shapeliness. 'A mask of moist rj'o flour or coating of old cream is as regularly assumed as the night robe, and the feminine head drooped pillowward minus cnrl pa pers or leads is exceptional. Hot foot baths are a regular feature of the toilet, as they tend to draw tho blood from hands and face." Every girl knows the value of beauty and seeks to make herself as attractive as possible, and should -, uu nnuiuui utsviiva uu nu conceal the ravages of time and dissi- der box, rouge palette and pencil prove a shallow resource.

Tho American man, the Drawer im agines, only develops himself and spreads mmself and crows "ior all ue is wortii" in tho Great West. He is more free and limber there, and unfolds those generous peculiarities and largenesses of humanity which never blossomed before. Tho "environment" has much to do -with it. The great spaces over which ho roams contribute to the enlargement of his mental horizon. Thero havo been races before who roamed the illimitable desert, but thoy travelled on foot or on camel baclr, and were limited in their range. There "was nothing continental about thorn, as there is about our railway desert travellers, who swing along through thousands of miles of sand and sage brush with a growing contempt for time and space. But expansive and great as these people have become under the new conditions, the Drawer has a fancy that the development of the race has only just begun, and that the future will show us in perfection a kind of man new to tho world. Out somewhere on the Santa Fe route, whore tho desert of one day was like the desert of the day before, and the Pullman car rolls and swings over the wide waste beneath the blue sky day after day, under its black flag of smoke, in the early jjray of morning, when tho men were waiting their turns at tho ablution bowls, a slip of a boy, perhaps aged soven, stood balancing himself on his little lees, clad in knickerbockers, biding his time, with all the nonchalance or an old ram paignof. "How did you sleep, cap?" asked a well-meaning elderly gentleman. "Well, thank you," was the dignified response; as I ahvays do on a sleeping car" Always 4ocs ? Great horrors ! Hardly out of his swaddling-clothes, and yet ha always sleeps well in a sleeper! Was he born on tho wheels?5vas ho cradled in a Pullman? He has always been in motion, probably; he was started at thirty miles an hour, no doubt, this marvellous boy of our now era. Ho was not born in a house at rest, but tho loco motive snatched him along with a shriek and a roar before his eyes were fairly open, and he was tockcu in a section, ' nnd his first sensation of life was that of moving rapidly over vast and spaces, throuah cattle ranees, and along canons. Tho offort of quick and easy locomotion on character mny have been nofed bo fore, but it seems that here is tho pro duction of a new sort of man, the direct product of our railway era. It is not simply that this boy is mature, but he mast bo a different auu a nonior sort ot boy than one born, say. at home or on n canal-boat; for whether ho was bom on the rail or not, ho belongs to tuo railway system of .civilization, lieforo he gets into trousers ho is old in experience, and hs has discounted many of tho novelties that usually break gradually on tho pil grim in thia world. He belcugs to tho new expansive race that must live in mo tion, whoso proper noma is tno x'unman (which will probably be improved in time into a dustless, sweet-smellinc. well-aired bedroom), and whoso domestic life will be on the wing, so to spealr. Tho Inter-State Commerce Bill will pass him alone without friction from end to end of the Union, and perhaps a uniform divorco law will enable linn to change his marital relations at any place where ho happens to dine. This promising lad is only a faint intimation of what wo are all coming to when we tunj acquire tno freedom of tho continent, and como into that oxpansivenes3 of feeling and of language which characterizes the Great West. It is a burst of joyous exuboranco that comes from tho sense of an illimit able horizon. It shows itself in the ten der words of a local newspaper at Bowie, Arizona, on the death of a beloved citizen; " 'Death loves a shining mark,' and she hit a dandy when she turned looso on Jim." And also in tho closinn words of a Now Mexico obituary, whioh tho Kansas Magazine quetes: "Her tired spirit was released from tho pain- rackmg body and soared aloft to eternal glory at I'SV) Denver time." "Wo die, as it were, in motion, as we sleep, and there is nowhere any boundary to our expan sion, l'erhaps wo shall never again Know any iot as we now understand tho term rest being only change ot motion and we shall not be nblo to sleep except on tiit- cars, and whether wo die by Denver tiiuo or by the 90th meridian, wo shall only change our time. Blessed bo this slip of a boy who is a man before he is an infant, and teaches us what rapid transit can do for our race! Tho only thing that can possibly hinder us in our progress will b3 second childhoed: we havo abolished first. Harper's Maga zine for June. 3Iay Report from Fort CanJiy.
