Dressing Well.

A writer in the Philadelphia I tines
says: Well dressed people, whose colors do
not, as the French woman said, swear at
one another, are Il pleasant sight, but ap-
propriatcly and picturesuucly dressed
people are pleasantcr-people whose dress
is not duplicate of every other dress one
sees. A drcssmaker as yet to fortune and
to fame unknown was lately discovered by
an Observant customer to be studying q
picture, not after Demorest or the Nouueaur
4Nodes, and arranging the garment in hand
with skillful blending OF mooern FASH
ion and artistic effect. The woman would
have handled the pencil or chisel effect.
lively had not her lot been cast among
silks and laces, but she was just in the
place where she was most needed. No
danger of her dresses being overloaded
with trimming, or looking on the wcarers
as if they belonged to some one else.
Comparatively few people have the air of
being on easy terms with their attire, and
the lady who expressed wish that human
beings could be provided with an un-
changing suit of feathers, like the birds,
was conscious of the difficulty of becom-
ing familiar with what is never the same.
The Saxon women are credited in history
with not having changed the fashion Of
their dress for the space of three centuries !;
but pictures of this fashion do not make
one sigh for its return. Their oover- chigx,
IN particular, concealing the hair as ef-
fectually 40 the ugly head dress OF the
"profcssed" nun, were rs different as
possible from many OF the lovely hats of
the present day, beneath which curls and
feathers often blend in picturesque con-
fusion. But why because of this must q
woman whom we saw yesterday, whose
hair didn't curl, and upon whom curls
would have been very much out of place,
tie her locks in dreadful bunch, and, by
some unknown process, persuade each in
dividual hair to stand out in different
direction. Such result could scarcely
have been attained except through the
power of electricity or of a terrible fright.
But the woman evidently had the idea
that she was in the fashion, and went on
her way with a sublime disregard Of
Greek statuary or the fitness OF things.
"Jane Maria Holbrook went to the past
urs to call the cattle home with black
lace mask veil strapped tight over her
sharp nose. She, too, poor child, has as
pirations!" So writes the clever author
of charming little story, and in writing
thus explains the mystery of much incon-
gruous dressing. It Is Inspirations.

Fox.Hunting in North Carolina.

Fox-hunting as practiced in North Car
DINA differs materially from similar sports
in the "old country" Wehave no cleared
fields with fences of uniform Cow) size;
nor have we imported foxes upon which
to rely for chases. We gallop over rude,
rocky, uneven hills and sides of mount
aims, down into and across ravines (seem-
ingly impossible to any but excited
mounted huntsmen), and through close
underground Of pine and wood; and
boys and quagmires cause but little fear
or hesitation to the rider, who goes head
long into almost any sort OF place, so
eager is he to keep near the hounds as
they % baying through the country pur-
suing a fox-trail The foxes which in
habit this section of country are not mean
prey-they possess, it is said, even greater
powers of endurance than the foxes hunted
in England, and they have all the sly,
cunning qualities claimed for those abroad.
Our hounds, too, compare favorably with
the best of the English fox hounds, many
of the animals used here being from stock
imported from England and trained to a
wonderful degree Of perfection. Fox
hunting in North Carolina is "no child's
play" nor simple amusement. The sue
cessful hunter is good and generally
reckless rider who does not contine him
self to roads or paths and wait for the fox
to run that way and come in sight in the
course of the chase. He dashes into woods
or through thickets or plowed fields, over
fences, across creeks and bitches, and up
and down hills at headlong speed, keeping
as nearly up with the dogs as possible,
urging thom to increase their exertions, or
BARKING struggling dogs on to. the
fresher trail. Besides this, there istfvely
competition among the hunters to be lin
ut the death" and to be first at the place
where the catch is made, 20 as to get
the brush.'-Cor. N. Y. Graphic.

A Cathedral's Treasures.


the cathedral of Milan writes:
Although it was Sunday and mass
was being said, the custodians of the
treasures of the cathedral were III attend
ance upon strangers, and We were not
obliged to wait the close of service. After
seeing the treasures, of which I only re-
member two life-sized statues of solid sill
yer and several busts of the same metal,
all richly inlaid with precious stones, an
immense cross several feet in length of
solid gold, some carved ivory dating from
the fifth century and Whereabouts, and any
quantity Of sacred implements and treas
ures in gold and silver, jeweled and with
out jewels, we descended into the tomb or
subterranean chapel of St. Carlo Borro-
meo. The dimensions of this l must
guess at. Its walls must have been some
eight or nine feet in height, of which the
upper three was cornice of solid silver,
wrought by the silversmith into pictures
in high relief, for the most part scenes in
the life Of the saint, one representing him
in his ministrations among the dead and
dying at the time Of the plague. Vertical
pilasters of silver separated the pictures
and descended nearly to the floor; Z silver
altar stood before the silver sarcophagus
Of the saint, and we examined the whole
by the light of candles in the silver
candlesticks of the altar, and by torches
held in the hands Of the two guards who
accompanied US. After examining the
walls and the altar the custodian, by turn
ing revolving handle at the side, caused
the wrought silver front of the sarcopha-
gus to DESCEND, and there was seen the
coffin, of plates of crown glass, with sill
yer trimmings, and the body of the saint
inside; outside were hung strings of rings
and jewels offered by visitors, many of
royal rank, among other things golden
cross, the offering of Cardinal Wiseman.
The body presented the appearance OF a
brown mummy, the features crumbling
into decay. 1t was dressed iu magnif-
cent robes of cloth of gold, gloves upon
the hands, large topaz ring on one fin
ger, outside of the glove. Jewels upon
Jewels, sacred and real insignia, glittered
around and upon the body. Over his
breast was suspended cross some five
inches in length, Of large emeralds set in
gold, and valued at i, 0OO, 900 francs. Over
his head was suspended rather delicate
said to he of inestimable value. The
work OF the silversmiths, we are told, was
given as a work of love; and without
counting the labor and the value of the
emerald cross and the crown we CON-
puted the value as given to Us of the solid
silver and the other jewels to be about
5000, 600 of our dollars. Al we paid our
five francs and assembled again we found
something inharmonlous in such costly
decorations of the tomb of one who, when
alive, sold all that he had and gave 1t to
the poor. We spent the sultry evening In
the open square before the cathedral with
out bonnet, shawl or gloves, tanning our
selves and eating ices, as we watched the
moon rise and shed its silver light on the
white glory Of the marble roof, with its
hundred turrets and numberless statues
glistening in purity and beauty.

SKETCH OF HIS LIFE.

The following brief sketch of the life of
the late Vice President is taken from the
Chicago Tribune of the 23d:
The life of the deceased statesman has
been a marked one, and its record is one
that may be profitably studied by all
Americans. Born in 1912, in poverty, he
was apprenticed to a farmer at ten years
of age, and served laboriously until his
majority, in 1888. With little opportunity
for schooling, he found the means, even
in those days, when books were not as
plentiful or as accessible as now, to read
great many volumes Of history and biog-
raphy. AS soon as he had COM
pleted his apprenticeship on the
farm he walked to Natick, Mass,
where he engaged al shoemaking, at
which he worked diligently, practicing
temperance and rigid economy until he
had accumulated some $500. He then
tried to improve his limited education by
attending an academy in New Hamp-
shire, but the depository of his savings
having become insolvent he returned to
shoemaking at Natick. His good habits
and his natural abilities, however, made
him conspicuous among his associates,
and in 1910 he was enlisted in be.
half of Gen. Harrison's election to
the Presidency, he making great
many speeches. From that time to the
present he has been conspicuous in
American politics. He was almost con-
tinuously member of either one or the
other branch of the State Legislature, and
frequently the presiding officer. He was
an active aati-slavery man and opposed
the annexation of Texas. In 1S4S he left
the Wing National Convention when it
rejected the anti-slavery platform and
united with the Free-Soil party. For two
years he edited an anti-slavery paper in
Boston, serving also in the Legislature.
In 1862 be presided at the Free
Soil National Convention in Pitts
burgh. In 1858 he was the Free. Soil candi-
date for Governor of Massachusetts, but
was defeated. When the Know othing
organization elected Gardner Governor Of
Massachusetts MIR. Wilson was a member
of that party, but when that party, subse-
quently, rejected an anti-slavery platform
he abandoned it. In 1855 he was elected
to the United States Senate in place Of
Edward Everett, resigned, and continued
by successive elections member of that
body until 1878, when he resigned to be-
come Vice-President, to which place he
was elected in 1872. @ 49,
