Tha hero of the popular sone of "Robin Adair." which Is attributed to Lady Car oline Keppel, was Robert Adair, n sur geon (1710(r17t)0), well known to tho Loudon fashionable circles or 1110 eighteenth century as the "Fortunate Irishman. " Ilia detection in an early amour drovo him from Dublin to London. On his way he fell in with a lady of fashion who had been slightly hurt in n runaway acci dent. He traveled with her in her car- riaco to London as Bureical attendant, and on their arrival was presented with n fee of 100 guineas and a general invitation to her house. There he met Lady Carolino Keppel, daughter of tho second Earl of Albemarle, who, forgetting hor high line age, fell desperately in love with tho Irish surgeon at sight Tho Albcmarlo family, dismayed at tno project of such a mesalliance, took Lady Caroline from London to Bath, and tried every means to make her forgot her lovor, but in vain. At last their opposi tion was withdrawn, and the couple wero united. It was at Bath that Lady Carolino Is said to have composed tho words of llobin Adair, "sottinir tliom totheplalnt- ivo Irish tune of "Eileen Aroon, " which sho liad heard her lover sing. Tho oricinal sonc of "Eileen Aroon" is attributed to 0110 Carol O'Daly, an early Irish bard who nourished apparently bo foro the tenth century. A Muuster ioet of tho seventeenth century rewroto tho words, nud in this form it was translated by John Austin- nud paraphrased by Gerald Oriniu. It is in Griffln's para phrase that tho Koiig is known to this generation. Lippincott's. Pointers for Mine Pnlesmen. "Flense try the left shoe on.

You would hardly believe how many ladies have hole in their stockings. We al ways know it. It's 'try the light shoo on,' or tho loft, 'never mind the other.' Some of them say, 'I'm afraid I havo a little break iu 1113- stocking. I didn t ex- ppct to Ret my t,hois trird to-day.' And ofL'U tho little break horrid' them, hav ing grown to a big break during tho day. Oh, yes, little breaks come sometimes, and the lady herself does not know it till tho shoo is removed. In tho3o cases sho um.illy says nothing, hut -just blushes. The liolo is always a genuine case of acci dent when n woman takes it that way. Sometimes they gasp, so that wo shall Eco how surprised they are, but then some women protend that. We can usually fell tho real thing. A successful sh'e salesman necx peculiar gifts of taw and the genius of patience, " thU 0110 con tinued. When a woman lias a really largo foot it's best to bring ashoo slightly too small, and then appear surprised th.it it does not fit. 'Somo foot look small'i than a really smaller foot' is a good ex planation of your error. Bring to tin woman who has n genuinely tiny foot a shoe too big, nnd then lit down to her. Nothing pleases hor so much. A sales man inliuences tho buyer tremendously, I believe n woman would rather have her foot praisod than bo told sho is clover Always humor a woman with a big foot 'You can wear a much smaller shoe than this, of courso, but you want this for really comfortablo wear.' That makes- her want to hug you. "Now York Sun Mlsuaetl -Words. Tho richness of the English Lingua"! consists in tho number and variety of i! synomyms. Thcso synomyms have 1 shade of difference, but their resemblance of meaning is sufficient to make thorn liable to be confounded togethor. Ihc habit of discriminating the shades of moaning will guard against this liability The following eight words, which art- frequently misused by interchanging one for tho other, furnish examples of this over present liability. Between for among. The word "be tween" is properly used only when It object consists of two items. "Among" should bo used if the object includes more than two items.

Does this yellow dress mako mo look pale or sick?" asked one girl of another in tho street last week. "When tho sun shines upon mo I fancy that tho yellow of my dress makes my complexion appear bad. Now notice particularly when wo como to tho next epon spaco between tha houses, and tell 1110 honestly if you think I look the least bit sallow. " "What shall you do with the dress, if It is unbecoming? " "Why, throw it away, or put it away, or give it away, or do something elso with It, of courso. I couldn't afford, for- tho sake of my position In society, to wear anything that makes me apjiear In deli cate health. I shouldn't bo invited any where. It wouldn't do nt all, you know ; it really wouldn't do. It is so out of style to bo sick or delicate or even frail iu ap pearance. " And so tho girls to insure tho health which is now so necessary to their social standing havo provided themselves with chatelains upon which hang half a dozen boxes of gold or silver, set with jewols and in which is a collection of medicine, tonics, and mora or less stimulating drugs.

A Confederate Snrrlwor Who hril n Irederal Oh.rgr. Major J. W. McClung, of Sail l-'r u clswo, tells a Globe-Dtmocrat spomletit: I think I am the only mi,- vivor of the Confederacy who led a 1 I- eral charge. This slucuiar tliinw I and here's how it was : ItrV3att!i ..t- tlo of Selma. I waa oftrrylnnr ord. i . a:id had to pass straight through tin t--wi. It was terribly hot and I had my en. !. We hail captured n wagon train u f -v days beforo, and out of the "i"il; I had appropriated a Wand new Federal cv- alry hat, so I did not look uniike a 1 . 11 keo oflleer. In the main street of Selma I met An aid named Brown a gallant fellotv. Hi shouted to mo that our lino liu I ' -ii broken and that Armstmu mis fn liir-i back, and told mo to get 011 1 or I'd U f k Just tlicu Armstrou2 aud. In i,.u . xl- loped past, and tl.o general rL-n;ii .u" us called out: "You must hurry u.n. of this, gentlemon. They are close 0.1 our heels. " Brown had a dispatch for Colonel .T.r m- sou, and ho said I. , would Walt in 1 liver it if ho died for It. While . n -re talking, pistols in Land, a column nf Federal cavalry swung into the Kii--, t where we stood, coming full liit. We were so taken by surprise that wo couU not getaway. Uron had on anew uni form that had just run the blockade, nud he was a good target. Half a dozen troopers dashed out from the lino to catch him. Wo were riding for our lives, Brown a litUs in the lead, so that it looked as though I was chasing him. The pursuers pasFcd me and overhauled Brown, and I caught a glimpse of him ns I passed, down on his back working his revolver, with a group of the enemynbout him, all shooting down at him and cutting at him with their sabers. By this thno I was at tho head of t'ie column, which had not slackened its mad pace. For at least a mile I rodn at their head, exchanging remarks about ths rstreat of tho "roba" and joining in tha cries of "Hurry j ljt's catcli Armstrong. " As we came to a side street that ran right down to the river I dashed out and swerved Bharply, and then I rode for dear life. In a second they wero after me, and tho bullets sang all mound 1110. I never halted, but plunged off a low pier into the water and swam straight across to where our peoplo wore trying to form a new front. The water torn by a perfect rain of bullets, but I was not scratched, and my home wa3 only Kliuhtiy wounded. I would llko much to know tho namo of my Federal commander. The Jews In riusaln. Tho faot that tho Russian Jews ara usually hotter educated in libcr.il Ideas than tho majority of the czav's subject, and ars to bo found among tho reformers and legal revolutionists of the Itu sian empire, has sarved to incite tho Mu&curi. e press to a renewal of the vhafcn that Nihilism has its focus in the Ru-wo-Jewish population. The murder of Oenernl SeilversEolT, a Itui lan ag?nt in "Franco, who was shot in h!i room nt the hotel whero he was residing in Paris, presuma bly in reyengo for the death sentence pai3ed on certain Nihilists a fow days previous in St. l'utorsburg, has doubtloss given fresh credenz a to the idea, especially as a few Hebrews wore found auunj the Nihilist ooujpir.itors. Yet it Is not fair to accusa tho Jews, as a cuu, of NihilUm, without studyiug the Ru-o Hebrew queaklgn, Tho St. retiraburj government appointed a cptuinissioa to obtain accurate iuforniation about tho Jewish population, and somo reports of that commission have already been handed to the chancellor. Tho St. Peters burg correspondent of the Parisian news paper Le Temps, baring possessed him elf of some of the figures and conclu sions of this report, has sent them to that paper. These show that iu tho 13 governments or provinces of Russia where Hebrews aro permitted to livo there aro 293,007 yews following mauiial or industrial occupations, There are, consequently, in Russia, a proportionately larger number of Jews than of Christians exercising an "Industrial trade, "remosslennlks'' is the word in the offi cial reports, signifying those who woik at a manual trade. The etalistias also show that the Hebrews in Russia support willingly the military charges imposed on every cittizen: forduring the period 1875-188G, out of 740,101 mnn drafted for military servicS. tliera were 37,533 Jews : thus the number of Hebrews who go through military serrloo is equal pvopur tionately to that of the 110 11 Jewish ponu lation, and this in a country whiih only grants them very rtutricled rights. The report of this coiiimiium, when pub ltshed, will, perhaps, do away wllh tli3 prejudice pgalnijj czars Hebtutv subjocts. Jjook to th. lUds. Beware of the beds! There is a eani tary enthusiast at Iluddcrsneld, E-Jug-land, who is warning the world of the frightful consequences of neglecting this maxim. It has been estimated, he hi)k, that 20,000,000 beds ars iu use hi this country, of which 10,009,000 have nut been opened for 10 years, and have dur ing that time remained wholly ttnpuri lied. As this apostlo of "bedroom sani tation" puts it, "all sorts land conditions of poopla have used them. Sometimes thoy have been beds of sick ness; deathbeds a vast number of thorn have been, some many times. But, us )io mournfully observes, "as soon as vacated they are again ready to do their insidious work, " Seriously, the common neglect of the duty of opening and cleansing the beds can baldly fail to liq productive of disease. Wo might do worse In thie regard than follow the practice on the Coutiuent, whero the, bed cleaner, with Ilia twe sticks far beat: Ing the contents of beds and' nmttieswa, after exposing them to sun nnd air, is a iegllar spring vls(oriu aQ well.reglilntI honet'liolds.
