In the twilight, in his sanctum, sat the editor

And he thought Of Quill, his "e. c." and con.

A Great Artists Mistake.

In the central square of the Capitol
at Rome, surrounded on three sides BY
buildings, stands very large bronze
statue of Marcus Aurelius, once En-
pcror of Rome, mounted on spirited
horse. This is the only equestrian
statue which has been preserved in a
perfect condition out of the many that
decorated ancient Rome. Michael An
gelo. who designed the buildings which
at present stand on this hill, was very
fond of this statue, and especially ad-
mfred the horse. One day, while he
was studying it, he forgot that it was
not alive, and wishing to see it In an
other position, he cried out: "Cdm"
which means, go on. After looking at this
horse for some time, one might easily
imagine that shout or touch of a
whip would make it jump. Frank II.

A TITLED MllllNER,
An Example Worthy of Initiation by Many
Girls.

An educated and titled lady has OPEN
ed shop for the making and selling of
bonnets in the West End, London. De-
spite conventional criticism, and nothing
daunted by the fear of losing caste or
dignity in the pursuit of such vocation
as the traffic in bonnets, millinery and
small fancy wares, she is spoken of in
the English press as highly contented
and financially successful woman. The
indications are that our English country
women are at least trfle ahead of us
in attempts to widen the fields of labor
for the choice and occupancy of women
of good class, and that the rough edges
of prejudice and the false notions con-
cerning the appointed place for women
in the domain Of the worlds industries
and employments, are fast giving way
to juster and more rational views of
what women can do, and ought to be en-
couraged and commended in doing. His
tory constantly repeats itself in the ex.
periences of well-born and well-educated
girls. who, from necessity arising from
the misfortunes or changed conditions
of their families, have been compelled
TO resort to the distasteful and depend
ent places of goycrness, companion or
reader. Such would find far greater
freedom from the petty restraints and
heartless insolence to which they are
often subjected by turning their minds
and energies to the art of dress or bonnet
making. If n natural gift, supplements
ed by patient study and practice, prove
that she has found her proper place,
such woman will soon profit
BY the confidence reposed in her taste
and ability by constantly increasing
list of friends and patrons, and the Pc
cuniary returns of her labor will vastly
outweigh the customary pittance doled
out in the respectable callings," to
which we have above referred. A lady
writing in an English journal, says: II
hear that famous champion of women's
rights, Miss Lydia Becker. is giving
countenance and support to a movement
which has for its object the teaching OF
dressmaking to young women OF good
class who have TO be among the working
bees of the universal hive IL was
thought probable that type-writing
would prove a remunerative and profit
able means of support, but women who
took it up, as many did in the spirit OF
amateurs, Cand without any previous
training, were discouraged on finding
that neither this, nor any other art, can
be mastered without serving an appren-
,iceship to it. The dressmaking scheme
is one that necessitates steady, patient
training. IL it is to he productive of the
best results. There is no royal road to
learning, and one must climb the noun
tain of knowledge by slow degrees-one
NAV not hope to clear it by bounds.
When there is a necessity for girls to do
something for their own support, or
where means are small and families
large. it Is well for girl who has a
particular talent to take up the art of
dressmaking or millinery. Certainly,
there is a great deal of encouragement
TO be borne before skill and proficiency
are arrived at; but, after all. the pro-
cesses are not so slow as those whereby
women reach success in many other
branches of learning. ~ T. Ecening

AN OLD GRAVEYARD.
Probably the Oldest Cemetery In All Nortl
America.

Probably the Oldest Cemetery In All North
America.
Directly opposite St. Luke's Church
and adjoining tho historic garrison
grounds in this town is situated the
Oldest graveyard in America, or at all
events in North America. In tho year
1905 Annapolis Royal was first settled.
ana as six deaths occurred among the
settlers that winter. we take it for
granted the graveyard must have been
opened In that year-2S0 years ago.
The first burial that we read about was
of tho body Of a Micmac Indian chief,
who was converted to Christianity. Be-
ore his death he requested that his body
be buried with his forefathers. but the
priest, thinking that if the body was not
buried in the Christian burial ground
the Indians might be led to doubt the
reality of his conversion. and that this
idea would prove an obstacle to their
own, disregarded the braves last wish
and had the body Inferred in the Chris
tisn burial ground This occurred in
1911. The heart of M. de Brouillan was
buried in this graveyard. Murdock's
history of Nova Scotia tells us that
Brouilfan died at sea, near Halifax ION
his return from France to Port oyal,
September, l705) and his body was
buried at sea. The graveyard served
for all the country IN the vicinity of An
napolis, and thousands must have been
buried in it. 1t contains about an acre
of ground, but at one time it covered a
much larger space.-Annapoiis (M 81
