In August, 1864, a private citizens coat aud
vest, made Of FIVE yards of coarse homespun
cloth, cost $3.50, exclusive OF the price paid
for the making The trimmings consisted
of old cravats; and for the cutting and putting
together, country tailor charged $50. It is

drain upon his pocketbook In January, 1865.
the material for lady's dress, which, before the
war, would have cost $40. could not be bought
for less than $500. The masculine mind is IN
equal to the task of guessing how great q sum
might have been had for bonnets brought
through the lines; for In spite of patient self
sacrifice and unfaltering devotion at the bedsides
of the wounded in the hospital, in minister
ing to the needs of relatives and dependents at
home, the Southern women Of those DAYS are
credited with as keen an interest in the fashions
as women everywhere IN civilized lands are apt
to be in times of peace. IL was natural that
they should be SO interested even though that
interest could in the main not reach beyond
theory. Without it they often would have had
a charm the less and pang the more. Any
feminine garment In the shape OF a cloak or
bonnet or dress which CHANGED to come from
the North WAS readily awarded its meed OF
praise, and reproduced by sharp-eyed observers
SO far as the scarcity Of materials would permit.
But fashions rules were necessarily much re-
Taxed in the Southern Confederacy, SO far az
practice went, when even such articles as pins

The estate OF the late Rev. E. p. Roe at Corn
WALTON the Hudson is offered for sale by his
widow. The sale is to be a private one. The
place contains twenty-five acres of land, and has
on it commodous dwelling built in Queen
Anne style, two and one-half stories high. Il
stands on o slight elevation 500 feet back from
the road. There is also barn and stable on
the place.
A survey Of the homestead shows that the
vines and trees were all planted very carefully
and with the most systematic care. Mr.. Roe
gave his flower garden his personal supervision,
and only a short time before his death succeeded
in engaging q man capable of ascertaining the
actual values of the different varieties Of small
fruit and vegetables on the place. he had in
tended to write up the result for the benefit Of
the public Part of the estate is occupied by
an orchard of apple and pear trees, which,
though fairly good had not yet shown to any
extent the results of special cultivation.

Perhaps not; bat few men have time or OBJ

preach only one original sermon Q week, the

idea is that two sermons q week requires too
much labor of young men who should be giving
their time to study. That is an excellent reason;
but those who study the most are just the ones
who will find it easiest to prepare two sermons
of twenty minutes each week. More men suffer
