lures are so clearly cut. her complexion so
delicate yet so full of color. Her dark eyes
are too sparkling to look Italian and too
pathetic 10 look French, and her form Is the
perfection of girlish grace"
A story is told of the goodness Of this
beauty. When attending Patriarchs' ball
last winter she went into the dressing-room
and found girl acquaintance crying be-
cause she had only one bouquet 10 take
into the ballroom. Miss Langdon, who had
four. Immediately gave her the two most
beautiful ones and carried the two remain
ing ones herself. Her generosity TO the
girls in her own set, which is very unusual
among society girls. is very noticeable. She
gave bp dancing with well-known young
man because 1t made his fiancee jealous. and
on another occasion she declined 10 ride on
tally-ho at coaching parade so that
friend might go in her place.
White dresses are almost invariably worn
in the evening By this young beauty,
although she occasionally puts on pale
pink or yellow gown She wears few
jewels, generally a pearl necklace and a
diamond pin or two.
Her ball dresses are always made with
lOw-cut bodices and short sleeves. and when
she wears white she looks like "Grecian
goddess with black hair" as young man
said the first part Of the winter.
During the summer before last Miss
Langdon was at Bar Harbor, where she
never appeared in public without a thick
brown veil. She said the veil was uncom-
Portable, but she could not submit to rude
sight-seers.
At this same resort she saved the lives Of
two young girls vino had been out rowing
and upset their boat some distance from
shore. Miss Langdon happened to be in her
own little boat. and rowing quickly to the
spot where the two girls were clinging to
their overturned boat she succeeded in
getting them into her own in very ex-
hausted condition. She dislikes any men
ton TO this brave act. as she does not con-
slider that she did anything heroic.
Miss Langdon is connected with the Liy-
ingstOn, Van Rensselaer, and Remsen fam
lilies, and inherits large fortune from her
father. who was prominent man and
member of an old family. Her stepfather,
Philip Schuyler, is also very wealthy. and
as he has adopted herself and her sister.
Miss Annie Langdon, she will doubtless
never want for this worlds goods
1t has been stated that Miss Langdon has
already rejected thirty-one suitors. 1t Yas
announced this fall that she was engaged
to DR.. Dick Peters of Philadelphia, the
brother of the beautiful Mrs. Wadsworth,
but the announcement was neither denied
nor confirmed by her family.
She dislikes any one to mention anything
about her getting married. and seems to
have decided contempt for girls who make
matrimony an object in life.
Some time ago Mrs. Schuyley and her
daughter sailed for Europe TO spend the re-
mainder OF the winter in the south of
France for Mrs. Sehuyler's health.
The great fear i'm society is that Miss
Langdon may marry titled foreigner, and
if she does New York will lose one of its
greatest beauties and heiresSes. York

Gracefully curving,
And gently swerving,
Cutting the air like bird on the wing:
Swinging in motion,
Happy devotion,
Hours of leisure sweet pleasures bring.
Now we are gliding,
Now we are sliding,
Now we are skating so happy and gay;
Now we are moving,
And oh how soothing,
Rocking in motion we speed on our way.
Singing so merrily,
Singing so cheerily-
Uleo. Uleo, Ulehohe; Uleo, U-le-ho-he!
Oh, the emotion,
And the commotion
OF hearts all aglow and beating in glee;
Silently swaying,
Thus mutely saying,
Together Wen travel happy and free.
Onward in measure,
Fine healthful pleasure
Curving and dashing and swinging in tune;
Winter is charming,
Nothing alarming
For roses go mating only in June.
Singing so merrily,
Singing so cheerily,
Uleo, Uleo, Ulehohe; Uleo, U-le-ho-he.

QUEEN OF HEARTS.
A New York Belle Who Has Refused
Thirty-One SuitOrs.

Thirty-One SuitOrs.
Very few girls in New Y ork society have
received as much admiration and attention
as Miss Marion Langdon, the young daugh-
ter of Mrs. Philip Schuyler, who has been
out the past two winters. At every ball
room, at receptions and teas, she is always
singled out, and receives more attention
than all the other girls put together.
Miss Langdon has one of the most ex-
quisitely beautiful faces / ever saw, either
in marble, on canvas or in life" said lead
ing artist who made a portrait of this young
beauty not long ago.
Her mothers family is connected with
that of the AStors, and at pretty Miss Car
RE Astor's wedding she was one of the
bridesmaids, and It was then she made her
first entrance into society She wore
dress of white tulle over satin. and a long
white veil that brought out the delicate
curves of her face and its rich coloring.
The winter following she was formally in
troduced by her mother, Mrs Philip Schuy-
Ter, at her residence on North Washington
square. The young debutante's bouquets
were so numerous that they were placed ON
the mantels and stands, and filed a large
table.
''She doesn't look like anything but an
American" said a prominent lady. in
speaking of Miss Langdon. s'Her fea-

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

Silence does not always mark wisdom.
Sooner or later a mans thoughts will
come into fruitage in deeds.
Too much overcharges nature, and
turns more to disease than nourishment.
Thou may'st as well expect to grow
stronger by always eating, as wiser by
always reading.
Ten thousand of the greatest faults in
u neighbors are of less consequence to
as than one Of the smallest in ourselves.
Inquisitive people are the tunnels OF
conversation; they do not take in any
thing for their own use, but merely te
pass it to another.
The adversaries of a good cause are
like men who strike at the Goals of {
large fire; they scatter the Goals and
propagate the fire.
Character is proof against the scofing'
of ridicule, and the consciousness Of
doing right takes the sting out of tn
most envenomed jest.

AVS Before you go for an editor,

reputable or healthy, rather than going
