kissing st. Peters Toe.

Rome Letter in Philsdelphia Bulletin.I
1 think most people imagine it must be q
dark, solemn, sncient-looking place, but it
ia nothing of the kind. There is no sdim,
religious ligat," there are no obscure corn
ers into which one must peer carefully 10
discover hidden treasures of art. ST.
Peters is light in every part, and bears few
marks of age compared with most of the
Churches in Rome, and il is q most salts
factory place to visit, because, whether the
day be sunny or stormy. hot or cold, the
light is always good, and the atmosphere
never changes from an agreeable, even tenn
perature. 1 was not long in discovering
vhe famous bronze statue of st. Peter,
which, by the wsy, was probably never in
tended 10 represent him at all, the best
authorities now agreeing that it was meant
fos Jupiter. But. however that may be,
this very rude snd martistic figure has long
done duty as a representative head of the
Church, and on this first and all my sue
eeeding visits there was q sort of fascina-
tion for me in watching the mover ceasing
stream of people doing honor tothestatue.
st. Peter sits on q fine marble throne
placed against the last column on the right
side of the nave; one foot is extended so as
to be in reach of the fsi.hful, and upon the
great toe have been imprinted so many
kisses that the original digit was long ago
sorn away, and the new one IL gilded
tronze will probably, in its turn, be re-
aewed in the course of 8 few hundred years
if the oscalatory practice be kept up go
long. It is a sight to behold; old men and
nlaidens, young men and children, high
sad low, rich and poor, one with another,
up assey all march. give the sacred toe q
little dab with hand or handkerchief, be-
stow the kiss and travel on, evidently with
the pisasing consciousness Of duty per-
formed. A filthy, ragged beggar, princess
in velvet and sealskin, q bare footed Fran
ciscan monk, long string of little school
boys, serns of whom must be lifted up by
the bigger ones or the priest Ia charge. /
saw all sorts and conditions kissing that
world-reae wsed toe, and did nay own en-,
brace of it-yicariously.

Combinations of two materials are seen
in most of the costumes imported for spring
and summer. Usually these have a plain
fabric for the waist, and drspery, with 6g-
ured goods, for the lower skirts.
Lower skirts, or foundation ekirts, remain
very narrow, and in many instances consist
of but four bresdths, one in front, which is
quite narrow. wider gored breadth on

Satin is also used for plestings and plas-

the newly-imported dresses show deep

They maintain the sane steady ccnposure

There are several methods of curbing q
bad temper. One of the most excellent
means of controlling emotion is BY persist

which hsrass and excite, and contemplating
pleasing subjects. If person throws out
an insinuation that you are fool, or are
not very good looking, do not get into a fit
of passion, and tell him he
is another. Do not allow your mind to
cling closely to the disagreesble and annoy

less truth, but turn your thoughts to other
and more pleasing channels. Do not bar-
Dor any feeling Of resentment at the person

A lady writes to Loudon contemporary:
"You say that girls who want to have good
complexions ought TO wash their faces with
almost boiling water. Not only girls
should DO this. but women who do not want
to have wrinkles. This is due to my having
washed my face every morning with very,
very warm water. The water tighteas the
skin and prevents it from wrinkling.
