les have been made of me for the remedy. >"

Life in the American Metropolis.

Father Ryan, he poet-priest, says in a
New York letter to the New Orleans
Times Democrat: All the highways of
seas and lands meet in New York. Like
an immense magnet, it attracts to itself
the energies of all the world. 1t is not
the ships from all shores anchored in the
harbor; it is not the railroads from all
over the continent converging toward
this great center; it is not the vast bust
ness establishments spread Gll over the
city; it is not the massive and magnif-
cent residences of the fortunate in life,
nor the tenements and novels of the mis-
erable, nor any such material things that
give TO the visitor the real character of
the city. 1t is the people. OF all races,
from, all lands, you meet them on every
street, and all work, work, work
some with hands, some with brains, some
with both, some in honest ways, some
with the wits of dishonesty, but for all
the watchword is work. Once ideas
ruled. But dollars have dethroned ideas
and they govern the government and are
presidents of the people. Chow much
are you worth 7" That settles your
status defines your position, and gauges
your ia .uence. New York is the Rome
of Mammon. Dollars there are dogmas.
New York, which to narrow eye
seems the very Babylon of iniquity, you
will find hidden Jerusalem, holy city
with thousand tabernacles before which
religion worships At first you only
see the veil-dark, woven of wicked
ness, bordered with crime-but behind
that black veil is many holy of holies
of beautiful lives, of glorious virtues.
There is not on earth city of such chari-
ties and generosities. And, breast to
breast with men who are working with
all energies for money you viii find men
of equal energies working for the anne
Iteration of human wants l know too
little of other churches save my own to

FASHION NOTES.

Perforated cork bohnets trimmed with
fur are the latest French fancy.
Bonnets with cloth crowns and velvet
brims are the favorites for demi-t0ilet.
Colored plush mats and fancy picture
frames may be popular, but are no longer
fashionable.
Long, ornamental shell hairpins are
made dressy with Rhine stones in the
curved ends.
Girls sailor suits are made of dark blue
serge and trimmed with ecru-colored
wooden braids.
A favorite style in real lace this season
is that combining rose point, point gaze
and duchesse.
Among evening shades may be men
toned sea-green, cornfower-blue and
apple-blossom pink.
Red Spanish lace is always fashiona-
BILE, but the imitation is not worn so
much this season as last.
The exclusive style in handkerchiefs
is represented by the fine white cambria
handkerchief wrought in hand embroid-
cry. Occasionally lace and embroidery
are associated in one handkerchief. EN-
broidered handkerchiefs range in price
all the way from $40 to 81 each.
What are known as interchangeable
settings are now employed for fine soli-
taires With these settings the same
gem may be worn one day in ring and
the next in bracelet or necklace. The
stone in each piece of jewelry is securely
held in place by a screw and little clasp
made expressly to receive it.
A novelty in muffs are little ones in
| cheneille marabout, to match in color the
marabout trimmings on the outside wrap.
Last season fancy muffs were made with
! little pockets; this autumn the pockets
are banished in favor of little gathered
bags of the same material as the muff,
designed to be carried on the arm.
For stylish hair dressing the back hair
is brushed from the nape of the neck to
the top of the head and twisted there IN
fantastic coils which are not large. Pins
and combs fasten the coils and are made
of tortoise-shell, gilt, or silver, with Rhine
stones. A slight fringe is on the fore

Of Interest to Teamsters.

A farmer who had used wagon with
broad tires on the wheels long enough to
ascertain their relative value as compared
with narrow tiles, writes: "a four-inch
tire viii carry two tons over soft ground
with greater ease to the team than a two
and one-half inch tire will carry one
ton. The wheels are not so much strained
by stones and rough tracks on the road,
and the road is not cut up, but, on the
contrary, is packed down and kept
smooth. The prevalent idea that the
draught is increased by widening the tire
is altogether baseless; on the contrary
a wide tire reduces the draught. The
extra cost of the tire is repaid many
times over every year in the extra work
that can be done by team. - Chicago

Caught at Last.

For years large red fox, which had
been dubbed "Stonewall Jackson has
evaded the hunters of Kenton county,
KY, and to capture him has long been
the ambition of the owners of several
packs of hounds. This has finally been
done by members of the Kenton Cunning
club. Mastering pack of thirty
fine English fox-hounds they repaired to
Reynard's haunts, and in a short time
the hounds were observed to be ''giving
tongue" beautifully on hot trail. The
run lasted for six hours, terminating in
the capture of the fox miles away near
the Boone county line. Many of the
hounds gave out long before the chase
ended.
