Mourning Jeyvelry.

The strangest freak of all the fash
ions of grief has been the wearing OF
"mourning jewelry;" to demonstrate
our inconsolable lot by pertinent
reference to it in our adornment is
surely paradoxical. / saw the other
day Il mourning ring" very interest
ing in its quaint frivolity. A slender
circle of gold held an oblong disk OF
white enameled surface, on which was
depicted the tomb, the weeping willow,
and the visiting relative Gin this case
widow, all neatly placed under glass.
1t was an old, old ring, belonging to
great-grandmother, who wore it for
her first husbands memory, although,
as she survived two more, it may have
done tender memorial services for all
three. The process which converts
the golden curl, the brown tress, or
the gray hair of our lost one into
chair jewelry' is among the curlosl-
ties of sentiment. Is it not cruel to
wear portion of our dead for orna-
mentP Surely the wiry strand, re-
pellant and rigid, was never the soft
hair about the "old familiar faces" |
remember seeing some "mother's hair
woven into the design of anchors for
earrings, and the daughters were
seeming to derive comfort from the
ilgnJ tossing of this emblem OF
security, and no doubt finding some
occult satisfactory reason for the in
congruity of design and fact. In our
youth there clustered about us all
maiden aunts wearing chains and
bracelets of hair, their stiffness SEEM
ing to testify to an unyielding sorrow,
and their quantity that the departed"
must have been Samsons. Then there
were the brooches with the bulging
serpentine twists of hair forming II
frame for the pictured face of the
original possessor of the harlan un-
| certain appeal to frame, as the exigen,-
| cies of u brooch sometimes subjected
the head to the vicissitude of being
worn upside down, thus marring the

How Neckties Are Made.

The designing of silks and satins
for neckties is profession in itself.
"There are special grades and designs
of silks and satins made exclusively
for the necktie trade" said manu-
facturer. "These materials are made
from patterns designed by men who
do nothing but study new things in
this line. There are from fifty to
seventy-tive factories in the country
and ten or twelve tirst-class makers.
The latter usually secure exclusive
rights to use certain styles of goods
offered to the American market, or a
large portion of it. But the success
of making up such goods is just like a
lottery. Perhaps one season | hit upon
a design that will become so popular
that all the other makers are forced to
adopt it, but the next season some one
in Boston or Philadelphia will make a
hit and | am forced to copy that.
There's never any telling how neck
tie is going to take until it is fairly on
the market. Then it depends for sue
cess on who adopts it first. Ii he
happens to be swell that particular
kind of necktie will sell we'll"
care the styles of making up neck
ties originated abrord?"
"Not now. Tucy were until about
three years ago, but now our styles are
superior to the European, and they
are coming over here for patterns.
However, there is Il tendency toward
English patterns for this season.
'gThere are more than 1,200 girls en-
ployed in this city alone. They work
by the piece and make money more or
less according to their expertness. A
good finisher can make So or 80 a
week. She takes nccktic after it is
put together and finishes each detail
perfectly so that it is read to box.
Three different colors of the same de-
sign and same style are twisted to-
gether to give the dealer an assort-
ment in the one make. The tinisher
must see that all of this kind are ex-
actly alike in point of finish and make.

ing but turn bands of necties, and she
makes $15 week. She turns twenty
five or thirty dozen bands day.

Harems.

In many respects the harems of Con-
stantinople are allowed greater liberty
than those of Egypt and Persia. The
ladies of StambOul are much addicted
to walking. whereas those of Cairo
are never seen in the streets on foot.
At the Sweet waters the harems stray
over the meadows or picnic on the
banks of the Kiaght Khanch stream,
with the fresh air blowing round them.
The Egyptian danes, however, can
never stir except in their carriages,
and can only view the world and their
neighbors from the windows of a
brougham. The Bezestan of SIAM
boul is daily honored by great ladies
who also think no evil of riding in the
public tram-cars between Galata and
Pera; but an Egyptian harem who at
tempted to mix with the crowd in such
promiscuous fashion would be prompt
ly banned. In other ways, however,
especially since the days of lsmail
Pasha, the harem of Cairo has opened
its eyes considerably to what goes on
beyond its proper ken. The wives and
families of foreign residents and trav-
elers put down the various high har-
ems on their visiting lists, and the BIZ
weekly promenades on the Shoobra
and Gezirch avenues give the yelled
ones an opportunity of seeing in the
flesh the personages of whom they are
perpetually hearing stories and anec-
dotes. 1t also gives the men chance
of having this and that hanem pointed
out to them as they whirl past in their
neat little carriages till each gets to
know the other by sight at least toler-
ably we'll. The opera and the after
noon promenade are the chief excite
ments of Egyptian harem life. The
Cairo opera house, built by the late
khedive in style commensurate with
the lavish disregard of expense which
marked his reign, is fitted with a dozen
boxes on the second tier, whose fronts
are framed with gauzy screen ena-
bling the occupants to watch the play
and the house, and supposed to pre-
vent the house from watching them.
The sparkling of bright eyes and dia-
monds are nevertheless apt to attract
! discreet attention, and powerful
glass nearly annihilates the screen, so
that the beauties in reality come not
only to see, but to be seen, like their
western sisters round them. A separ-
ate entrance leads up to the harem
boxes, and after the fall of the curtain
the harem don their habarahs and
steal out to their. carriages by back
way, where it is whispered that many
a note and bonbonniere await them on
| their passage. The Saturday Revteec.

sheriff, to inquire, in the presence of such

b Like those now authorized by law In

to be an habitual drunkard may dispense
with legal proceedings and appoint his
own committee and voluntarily enter any

The Struggle For Supremacy.

Germany, France and Austria are in
chronic state Of fright over their mill.
tary condition and England has thor.
oughly taken the disease, while Russia
is proof against It only because she has
long been suffering from milder form Of
the same malady complicated with dan
ger of revolution. The enormous ex-
pense of her military establishment has
become heavy burden for which the
Russians have fallen into the habit OK
blaming England, and they are said to
hate her with cordiality that the Eng
,ish hardly realize. The rumor is that
Just at present Russians are rejoicing
over what they believe to be an evidence
of the decline of England's power the
attempt and failure Of the queen tn marry
Alexander of Bulgaria to the daughter Of
the German emperor. They persist in
regarding this as purely diplomatic In.
trigue on the part of England to foster
enmity between Russia and Germany.
They hold that Germany and Russia are
pledged to work together and that their
evident destiny is to dominate respec.
lively Europe and Asia. They look for.
ward to the speedy rise Of the United
States to the place now held by England
in commerce and diplomacy, and hold
that rs soon as we begin to fill our mani
fest destiny as the heirs Of Great Britain's
ocean dominion, that power will vanish
from the field, and Russia will be free to
conquer the Turks and extend her do
minion as far as she chooses. This they
consider the sure end OF the British
power, but they are eager to hasten it II
opportunity affords, for England has
steadily opposed ard thwarted their
efforts to secure Constantinople, and
they think that their prosperity depends
upon securing that city as an inlet for
their commerce that is to be. They be.
lieve that their thinly settled but vast
territory Is fitted by nature to become
great in agriculture, and only needs an
outlet on the Mediterranean and a better
