.BeWe1ed Carriers,

The fashion for wearing ieweled gar
tiers has spread so rapidly that jewellers
all keep the article in stock. They are
very expensive. A member of conspic-
uous firm explains "The rage is re-
cent, but none the less strong, and it
promises to spread indefinitely. as the
range is as unlimited as the purse, All
the prominent society women and MANY
who are not in society wear them. You
see, women constltutionallv delight in
pretty things, and their adornment is of
more interest and enjoyment to them
than anything else. If you will come
down stairs I'll show you the stock.
There was showcase full of them,
each pair mounted in velvet box. The
pattern was the same In all as far as the
band was concerned. The band was a
fuH inch wide, made of fine elastic and
covered with beautifully woven silk of
every conceivable shade, pale blues and
warm reds predominating. They are
designed to match the tint of the dress
worn with them. In one case two heart
shaped clasps of colored gold, inlaid with
cross-bars of torquoises and pearls,
joined the ends of scarlet band with
little frills of silk along the edges. The
price was $lOO. A pair with two oval
clasps of hammered gold, perhaps all
inch in length, could be bought for S48,
while the cheapest pair, with plain gold
clasps, was $46.
Its curious fact, " said the 1eweler,
"that the cheap ones won't sell. When
customer wants al elegant garter
he--I mean, she-is willing to paw
for it.
A pair that cost 1926 had two shields
with three big pearls in each and little
diamonds at the edge. Another pair
was expensive through it's delicate lace.
which was arranged in a fluffy bow-knot
with two little gold disks clasping in the
center.
Z At another establishment the ieweler
said
The majority of them are made to
order. Your visit is opportune, as I
have just finished the most expensive
pair that ever left my factory. The
price is ST., 300" In this the lace and
pearl-coiored silk band was joined by
an elaborate clasp. On one side was the
lady's monogram In pearls; on the other
the coat-of-arms, with frosted storks'
heads, crest of delicately- carved gold.
and motto set in chip diamonds. It
was present from mother to her
daughter, who is to be married soon.

Old Maids Make the best BOARDING

Prof. A. e. Willis delivered lecture
In st. Louis on the subject of Glove
and Marriage" According to the Re-
publican, before commencing his re-
marks he exhibited a skull and pointed
out phrenologically all the peculiar
characteristics of the person who carried
it around. He cndeavored to show where
the love part of the brain was, and then,
commencing his lecture proper, he said
he wanted to speak of the power of love.
Nc such man as Brigham Young, in his
opinion, had any love in him. He had
too many wives.
To fall in love people must feel as II they
could caresseand embrace each other.
Some girls like to hug and kiss, and 9TH
ers didn't care cent about it. It all
depends upon the organ of coniugality.
Some married people never kissed each
other, while others were very fond of
kissing. Couples often got along well
enough, but there was not that congen-
iality between them that should exist
between man and wife. Love, he con-
tended, was in its very nature attraction
or magnetism.
Love, what is love?

which he attributed to novel reading,
the latter producing too much Benti-
mentalism. He then described the
average young couple going through a
siege of counting, and said there was
just as much difference as between
black and white. Love blinded most
folks. If a girl was in love to man she
became blind to his faults. A second
test CT love was that lovers were always
unhappy if not in each others presence.
The third test was, if you were in love
with person you would die for him.
Such facts were good evidences. Love
he regarded as boon of happiness. Let
an old maid fall in love and her ewes
would sparkle and she would look ten
years younger. She would become q

we're on old maids, for he said the most
of them we're sour. They made the
best boarding house keepers, though, in
the world.
The great object of modern court
ship, he continued, was to get acquaint-
ed, marry and fool each other. He
pointed out the deception practiced
nowadays in order to win wife or
husband, and spoke of commercial mar
riage.
He claimed that in all questions of
marriage the facial expressions should
be studied. Men and women ought to
know about human nature.

GOSSIP FOR THE LADIES.


The Date i'm the Ring.
The women dressed her for farewell
In Snowy silk and lace;
A crown Of braided hair they set
Above her quiet face,
And on her placid breast they laid
White roses as became maid
Her mother bent and kissed her lips,
AID kissed her braided hair,
And folded down the peaceful hands
Upon the bosom fair.
Apd, weeping, saw on one ring,
A little golden, time-worn thing
She took it from the icy hand
And looked for rhyme or name,
Something to say why it was there,
From whose fond thought il came.
She only saw through many a tear,
a date long past-day, month and year.
ss'Twas some schoofellow's gift she sighed,
8 The child forgot 10 show
And put it back in its own place
With tender touch and slow;
And saw its tiny glitter rest
Like sunshine on atquiet breast
All, little ring, You kept it well,
The secret of your datel
Whate'er its meaning, it goes untold
Beyond the earth aud fate;
Pain or blessing-who can say
How MACH Of either in it lay?
We watch the light in our darling's eyes,
The iines that the slow years bring,
Yet know es little of what they meaa
As the secret of the ring.
Joy or sorrow-God only knows
How much of both lies under the rosa

rME roET AVID THE CHILDREN.
BT JOHN q. wErTT1En

With glory OF winter sunsAins
Over his locks of gray,
In the old historic mansion
He sat on his last birthday.
With his books and his pleasant pictures
And his household and his kin,
While a sound as Of myriads singing
From far and near stole in.
1t came from his own fair city,
From the prsiries boundless plain,
From the Golden Gate Of sunset,
And the cedar woods Of Maine
And his heart grew warm within him,
And his moistening eyes grew dim,
For he knew that his countrys children
We're singing the songs Of him:
The lays Of his ife's glad morning,
The psalms Of his evening time,
Whose echoes shall float forever
On the winds Of every cline.
All their beautiful consultations,
Sent forth ike birds of cheer,
Came nOcking back to his windowh
And sang in the Poets ear.
Grateful, but solemn and tender,
the music rose and fell
With Joy akin TO sadness
And greeting like farewell.
With sense Of awe he listened
To the voices sweet and young;
The last Of earth and the first of heaven
Seemed In the songs they sung.
And waiting little longer
For the wonderful change to come,
He heard the Summoning Angel
Who calls Gods children homel
And to him, In holisr welcome,
Was the mystical meaning given
OF the words Of the blessed Master:
"of such is the kingdom Of heayenl"

A Waggish Hackman.
[st Louis Republiean.l


A man stepped up to one of the hack
men at Union depot and wanted to know
where he could procure a bottle of whis-
ky. "Jump right in, sir, jump right in,
and will take you where you can get
the finest kind of whisky cheap" The
unsuspecting individual, in response to
the invitation, jumped ir.o the hack and
was being driven Gown the street at
lightning speed before he had time to
collect his thoughts. The mercenary
hackman drove out to Grand avenue and
north on that thoroughfare until he
reached Washington avenue, when he
turned east and directed his course to-
ward the river, finally hating in front
of a saloon near Sixth street. Here he
jumped from the box and opened the
door of his coach, when the stranger
asked him why the 'mischief" he had
taken him so far.
"Well," retorted the hackman, "you
wanted me take you out to get bottle
of good whisky, and you can't get that
everywhere. "
Seeing that it was useless to parley
with the hackman, the stranger then
procured the whisky and ask to be taken
to the depot as soon as possible, as he
desired to take the train.
The hackman said he had other en-
gagements and couldn't afford to do it
unless he received 81 for his trouble.
AS the stranger imagined it was five
or six miles to the depot, he paid the
dollar, and said: "Well, then go ahead.
J. suppose l must stand it. In about
four minutes, to the mans astonishment,
the hackman hailed in front of the de-
pot. He couldn't understand how it
took him such a long time to reach the
whisky shop, and only few brief min
utes to return. But that didn't alter the
case any, as the hackman had the dollar
while the stranger had nothing to show
for his trouble but little experience
and bottle of whiskey.

Girls First.

The best husbands I ever met came
out OF a family where the mother, most
heroic and self-denying woman, laid
down the absolute law, "Girls first. I"
Not in any authority, but first to be
thought Of as to protection and tender
ness. Consequ emily, the chivalrous
care which these lads were taught to
show to their own sisters naturally ex-
tended itself to all women. They grew
up true neutrality-suspicious., gener-
Gus, unexacting, courteous of speech and
kind of heart. In them was the protect
ing strength of manhood, which scorns
to use its strength except for protection !;
the proud honesty of manhood, which
infinitely prefers being lovingly and
openly resisted to being "twisted round
ones finger" as mean men are twisted,
and mean women will always be found
ready to do it; but which I think all
honest men and brave women wouh not
merely dislike, but utterly despise.-

Suddenly there was gurgling sound
that smote their ears-it seemed to come
from the ground beneath their feet-and
she excitedly exclaimed:
/" Hark, Hector What sound was
that Seems to me it issued from some
awearied soul whose life's last gasp

How to Entertain the Girls.

What shall we do to entertain our
girls ?" says q religious exchange. A
man who needs advice as to Eow to
entertain his girls is not fit to edit a
religious paper. We suggest that he
take one of them out buggy-riding in
the afternoon, tell her what daisy she
is, and how insipid and fixed up that
other girl is. Then he should take
that other girl out for ice-cleam after
snpper and tell her conidentially how
very uninteresting and awkward tho
buggy riding girl is. When the two
girls meet the religious editor can de-
pend on them entertaining each other
without his personal assistance. - e1as

The Iron Trade.

PITTsBURG, May 1.-THE reduction
in card rates on iron in Philadelphia
will have no effect on the agitation be-
tween the iron masters and workingmen
here. Neither will there be any kick
by the workingmen in Philadelphia
against the reduction in wages which
tho reduction in the selling price Of
iron carries with 1t. When iron sells
at $40 cents in Philadelphia bailers
there get S. per ton; when iron sells at
2 IS 10 cents per pound bailers there get
$4.75 per ton, which they will accept
without murmar, because that is the
contract and the policy also OF the
Amalgamated Association.
When iron sells here at 9 $40 cents
bailers get s.. 80, and when it sells at
21l cents here they get $3.50 per ton,
which is the price paid for bailing now
though iron is really selling below ~
cents. The Philadelphia scale goes az
low as cents per pound, and the Pitts
burg scale only as low as "a cents per
pound rs basis. The workingmen
here have investigated for themselves
the condition of the iron market, and
at their district meeting next Saturday
will probably vote to recall the demand
for an increase in the basis of the scales
for bailers, rollers and engineers. The
will probably grant q
few extras demanded by the men and
then sign the scales which ara In force

A STEAMER BURNED.
A Mallory Line Steamer Burned
to the wator's edge but the pas
sengers Saved.

DELAWARE BREAKwATEE, Mayl IL
The Mallory line steamer Rio Grande,
from Galveston, Texas, for New York
arrived in the harbor at 6.5S u. m. with
cargo on fire in forehold and amidships.
Some of her passengers had been pre-
viously transferred to the Italian bark.
Beppino A. Captain w. Il. Hutchins,
of New York, one of the passengers
who landed at Lewes, Del, to-day,
gives the following account OF the dis
aster.
Fire was discovered in tha lower
hold at five p. IL. yesterday, when
Henlopen.
We soon afterward sighted the
Italian bark Beppino A, and steamed
toward her. The bark lay by the
steamer until seven o'clock, when, the
fire still increasing, Captain Burrows
gave orders to transfer all the passen.
gers, ninety in number, to the bark.
The transfer was completed about
ten O'Clock, when the Beppino pro-
ceeded.
Captain G. w. Brown, of New York.
went with the Rio Grapde's passengers
on the bark, but with five other passen-
gers volunteered to remain with the
steamer to assist her crew. At II p. M.
the burning steamer got under head
way for the Delaware Breakwater,
with her colors at half-mast, union
down, and blowing her whistle, She
arrived at the Breakwater early this
morning, and at A. M. the tug Nettie,
of the Breakwater Wrecking Company,
was by her side. The wrecking schoon.
er of the same company was soon
brought up and the steam pumps were
set to work.
