The women of that tribe are often what is technically called steatopygous, thai is, the posterior part of the body is abnormally developed, and this peculiarity of structure is greatly admired by the men. Sir Audrow Smith tells of a Hottentot woman he once saw who was accounted a great beauty. In ber else this development was so great that she was unable to rise when scated on the ground, and could only do so by working herself along until she arrived at a slope. Burton also inform us that the Somalimen "are said to choose their wives by ranging them in line and picking her out whe. projects farthest a fargo."
Whether the standard of beauty should or should not be arbitrary will always be a matter of discussion, and while many may subscribe to the negative view their individual tastes, for the most part, will continue to be their law.

· SICKNESS ON THE SEA.
ANALYSIS OF ITS NATURE AND SUGGIST)з
1 REMEDIES.
Most of those who have experienced the misciles of sea-sicki css, hɛ wever they might differ in minor deli's of statement, would agree in ascribing this most displ iting malady to
one main cause-the moion of the ship. In a far the while medical faculty would concur in the decision. This, then, is the central fact which confers upon the disorder the unique position. It is really not a pathological but a physiological disturbance. It has no natural connection with dyspepsis:
The robust and healthy, by a strange contra- dicilon, suffer from it for the time hardly less than the weak and Ill. Its variations of inten sity are felt to be counterparts of mere bodily oscillation. Some find relief from it in change of posture, others in active occupation, all mote or less when their storm-tosted vessel salle under the tee of land. Custom and use commonly secure immunity.
These are circumstances which one and all point to mechanical causation as the source of the discomfort. It is the unaccustomed rise and fall, the ferk and relaxation of loosely attached abdominal viscera, mainly perhaps, but not alone, of the stomach, acting upon the central pervmas connections, which must bear the broat of accuration. It follows that successful trent- ment cannot be guaranteed by any one method of pansces. Recumbency, pure deck alr moderately firm bandaging of the body aso all useful. Diugs have their place and their partial
already utility; but, as we have
anggested, there is no remedy equal to a lee shore,
Nothing can be much more depresslog than seasickness, and for this reason we should strongly advise all weak persons not to encounter, if possible, the risk of its cecurrence. It is astonishing how soon and how completely those who are favored with a fait measure of con- stitutional elasticity recover from its depression. In their care the benefits of a sea trip may thus, with compensation of air, diet and appetite, be even enhanced by a few hours of merbarical nantes, it is, in trath, for such persons only that tours of this kind oro advisable,—London Lancet.
THE WOMAN WHO FASCINATES.
A pair of legs, male or female, tolerably straight, with plenty of flesh attached thereto, is enough to evoke the admiration of most, while often the most beefy appendages are considered beautiful. Farther than such crude conceptions of grace the majority of persons do not pass, and with them a leg that answers these requirements is to be admired as much as a sculptor's ideal. Such thing as a perfect leg cannot exist in flesh and blood, nor can the ideal of any one artist be considered the type of perfection. Praxiteles and other Greek sculptors were wont to us several models for one statue, the peculiarepulses audacious admiration. And while all beauties of erch answering as patterns for cer.the world knows that very bad women are often ain puits.

daily fond, who "understands life and 's responsibilities, who passessing s streng vein of sentiment, and yet conceals it under a mask of graceful cynicism, who, holding lofty Ideals, has yet a spice of Mother Eve in her composition, will not prove unattractive to the prince of cynics who finds a "goody" women insipid, The woman who would fascinate must be in- terested as well as interesting. She must study the man she wishes should study her. She must listen to him a part of the time, not monopolise the conversation. There is one quality without which all the fascinations of women ara fatile. Beauty, grace, wit, erudition are in vain without that undefinable something we call personal mag- netlem. This mysterious Influence has never heen dissected by science. Its source is unknown, its extent unlimited. The lack of it repels us from many estimable people, and it is the strongest weapon a woman can wield: A man is quick to recognise its presence, and very many ugly women possess this quality. Princess Metter nich, one of the most indisputably ugly women of this century, was also one of the most charm. Ing, and Mme. Blavatsky, a ponderously stout woman with the plaiurst of facer, is reported by every one whoever came in contact with her to have been fascinating beyond description. Can this magnetism be acquired To a ceriata extent, yes
A very common error is made in assigning too great an importance to mere proportion, which, it is generally supposed, constitutes the beauty of anatomical forms. Such however, is not the case. Every measurement of the bedy, Latitudinal and longiturinal, may correspond with the accepted anthropometrical tables, and yet much room be left for Improvement. It is In the contour of the body and limbs that the beauty lies. The lines should curva gracefully and flow into one another, making a harmonious whole; A thigh, knee, calf, and ankle may be relatively correct in their measurements, and yet, when viewed from a purely artistic standpoint, the leg may be lacking in that beauty of outline that is best expressed by "contour."

Messrs. A. S. Watson & Co, write as follows:
In the human figure there are no straight lines; it is a combination of curves changing with every inch of the outline and often several times in one inch. What may appear to be a single curve, for instance, that of the posterior fice of the call, is in really several distinct curves. By reason of this the surface of the body is alightly undulating and almost every part of it is subject to chang by the action of the underlying muscles it will be seen what wonde fal talent has been displayed by those arilate who have grasped the subject in all its details. No pleture nor status can appear really life-like unless these minor inequalities receive proper attention from the artist, for they alona can give softness to canvas, marble or bronze.
