The in- tim-ea (• t,2 environment upon tho race resilient in tho United States must in the course Gi' four centuries produce cer- tain n/ttrkcd and undeniable physical result'. It is not generally aekl•(,wledg- ed by Amcriean anthropologists that there is a tendency of reversion to the type ilt(bg'n(n a to the soil. But foreign e udent; of rave, with more perspective, have offered. interesting food for reflec- tion.

Both American favorites of the cartoonist have high cheek bones and Usually excellent straight noses. Those wi tresses are not, of course, scien- tifically admissible. The faces given tut by the caricature makers are impres- sions, not testimony. Scientific, however, is the study of- fered of the Pennsylvania Germaus—a happy, thrifty, frugal people, who have been subjected to American conditions for nearly two centuries, with very lit- tle intermingling with other races, much less than the English people in New Englaud or in Virginia. It is true that the pervasive and be- guiling Irish have intermarried some- what with these old Pennsylvania set- tlers, but in the main it ie a very exclu- sive, pure blooded Palatinate stock.

We find that the Poml,aylvania Gelman children are dark in hair and eyes, that the men are probably of in- cretried etature, that heads appear to be lengthening, that arm reach appears to bo incro.enng.

But as long as young I ,t u in their lamentable desire to be a eenfnrtablo refuse to look at the matter in that light there is aced that they slamld be duly instructed in the prod e•r- tie.e of their position, and what better in•dtractor could they have than the anonymous genius echo writes of things ".1.' Seen by Ilim" in that very fash- iruublr publication, Vogue? It islie who tells thein what "tlie complete bath- elor" slloulcl be, and if they aro wise they will listen to his words. All the 'outiugeneies which arise in the kocial Life of the bachelor are dilly considered. First, there is the matter of his public manu('rs, in which many glen who re- gard themselves as well bred are woe- fully do flcient. They will smoke in tho street, keep' women. stauding ou corner's while they talk to them, sit while wom- en are standing, carry sticks or umbrel- las at offensive augles, stare women out of countenance at theaters or hotels, and in general make nuisances of them- selves. Now, a bachelor who will do any of these things is wretchedly in- complete. Then comes the question of clothes. Nothing more distinguishes the gentle- man than what lie wears. Nor is it enough, as many do, to be nice in the matter of gloves, shoes or cravats awl owe largo rums to, the tailor. Dressing is not se much a matter of money as a mt:tte1 ( 2 taste. After a man has put his wardrobe in proper condition Ile may get along remarkably well on a very small yearly sum. Our author does not disdain to give economical hints, to tell h• w the tailor around. the corner will do perfectly well some things for which tho "swell" tailor would charge roundly, to explain how to get out of a suit the utmost possible service. Such thus .are beneath no man's attention, though he be a genius or a millionaire. Until the art of <res,iug properly is un- derstood, the moral progress of society will remain au idle dream. We need not add that tho Man who wears a "made, tie" belougs in the outer (l•: rk- :i(•ss cf barbarism.

We unto that our author speaks a good word for the black tie with a Tuxedo, though he does not absolutely bar a white one, This is a question upon which no thoroughly satisfactory ruling has ever been made. For our own part, we think that those occasions wlierceii a man feels a -white do incumbent aim demand a "swallor tail" coat. The toilet is not less important than the dress. Scrupulous earl in this re- spect is certainly Om mark of a com- plete bachelor. That a Tuan should take his tub every ululating goes without say- ing. At the sante time there is hen need to insist npou the rigor of the game and say that tiro water shall be cold. Tepid water is best. "Every man should learn to shave himself." These are golden words. A barber is occasionally neces- sary no doubt, but there is something offensive to refined sensibilities in the picture of a long row of :nen in chairs having a part of their toilet performed. Our author says nothing of the habit of having boots blacked in the street, just- 1 ly regarding it AS ono so bad as to be l unspeakable. Patent tooth powders, washes, pomatums and nostrtuus of every kind aro condelnued'witihout re- serve. This, too, shows good sense. The caro of toilet articles is rightly insisted l upon. A nail cannot be a, complete I baohelor unless lie is welling to tale 1 some trouble. The custom of wearing tho hair long is disapproved. No point its too minute for the consid- eration of this thoughtful writer.

You are all familiar with the common black beetle known as the tulnblebug, and perhaps may have seen it rolling a ball with its hind legs, pushing it back- ward. The ball contains the egg of the beetle, and the creature is taking it to a place of safety. A green beetle spotted with white is called the tiger beetle. Ho is a clever fellow and vary conning in his manner of securing his prey. He will dig a hole a foot in depth and then crawl to the top and form himself into a bridge across the chasm, burying his head in such a manner as to appear like some- thing inanimate, but the will be on the alert for the unwary creature that )makes au attempt to cross ou his bctck. In an instant the bridge will give way and the prey will be precipitated into the hole. The beetle will follow and quickly dispatch the game, when ho will return, reform the bridge aud al- lure another victim. Old fashioned furniture is often com- pletely ruined. by the larvtn of a beetle galled the ahhobnim, A peculiar sound like the ticking of a clock is made by these beetles when they call to each other, the ncie;c being male by strila:lg the jawe against their resting place, and often in old houses filled with old fur- niture the seper:1titious, when they hear this peculiar eotuid, imagine tho place to be l:a-anttal.

A gun that is capa- ble of rising out of au nee:taut looking hole, pouring forth great volleys of death dealing bullets and then sinkiug out of sight, leaving hardly a trace of its presence and certainly nothing to fire at, is formidable enough to invest the new theory wall all needful logic. It would be to au enemy what tho hollow road near Waterloo was to the cuiras- siers of Napoleon. The rifle of the future will be the au- tomatic rifle.
