AN Eastern journal protests against the
clerical garb, saying that there is no reason
why clergymen should wear livery. The
New York Tribune, rather timiily, con-
ours, adding, however, that if other clergy
men than the Baptists discard the clerical
coat they should be cautioned against too
marked reaction against clericalism of
garb, since anything approaching jaunti-
ness of costume would be outrageous.
<'Cassock and cord would be better than
that" But neither journal offers any
good reason why the clergymen should
not wear livery. What can be said against
custom that appears to have had natural
evolution, and that serves to distinguish
the priests OF God from other men, Does
not the clerical coat amount to regalia
that is at once confession, and badge of
honor? Is it not, in a large measure, a
protection, and has it not distinct and
positive influence upon the multitude for
good? We think So The distinguishing
oil professional men by garb might well be
carried further-the physician ought to be
known by his coat, or at least by badge
that would indicate to all men that he is
of the fraternity of healers. A year or two
ago distinguished physician of New
York proposed to bis brethren that they
should adopt a small knot of ribbon of a
peculiar tint, to be worn in the button
hole; another moved to amend by sug-
gestipg bronze button, to be worn upon
the lapel. The reasons for some such dis
tinguishing feature in the garb of the
physician are many and strong and need
not be recounted now. Certainly there is
no honorable profession that will be
harmed by its membership being distin-
guished by modest livery Of the calling.

REFERRING to the proposition in Con-
gress to retain the tariff tax upon works of
art, Harper's Weekly says:
Works of the fine arts beautiful pictures no.
Die statues-are not manufactures. To levy
upon the "Angelus' a tax of $50 600 for its entry
into this country as permanent eleyating in
huence upon the public taste would not tend to
increase the native production of such pictures;
on the contrary, it would tend only to diminish
the faculty OF producing, as well as the oppor-
tunity of enjoying them. We are the only ma
ton which opposes the entrance within its Dor
ders OF the beautiful and refining influences of
works of genius in the arts, apparently under
the delusioa that if we exclude Raphaers
TRANSPORTATION we shall develop Raphaels
among ourselves, not yet seeing that 1t is Ra-
phael which stimulates Raphaels.
If there was any doubt as to how Amer
lean artists will be affected by retention of
the duty, it has been dissipated by the
memorial signed by the leading American
artists asking for the removal of the duty.
These people certainly know what effects
benefcially or disadvantageously their
own interests.

TINE FOLLOWING Is A LETTER FROM THE
/ Mathushek Piano Manufacturing Company,
New Haven, Conn.
June %, 1890
JOHN F. COOPER, Eso.-Dear Sir: Replying to
your letter of the 4th inst, will say we inciose
copy ofreport of the Mathushek 4 SON COMPANY
also copy of the Musical Courier" containing
an article relating 10 these people. The above
mentioned is all the information we have in
the matter. 1t is very evident from the above
report that the concern is not in shape tinanci-
ally to do very extensive business, but of
course, rival aud INSCRIPTIONS dealers will
make all they can out of it, in the hope OF
putting something else forward. Ii Is only an
other OF those desperate attempts to make CAPT.
tai on from the name and reputation the Math-
ushek Piano has gained. As a matter OF fact,
1t is really gratifying to see how much the
name is appreciated, and that it is considered
so valuable that previous failures don't seem
to dampen the ardor of the projectors. We are
confident in the belief, however from the fl
nancial standing of the new concern that no
longer lease OF lite will be accorded them than
was granted their predecessors. The Mathu-
shek Piano is pretty well installed, and we
hardly think the public win be beguiled into
buying n piano made by Jacobs Bros for
Mathushek. A few may be influenced at first,
but ii will end like all the other attempts in a
tirst-class advertisement. Yours very respect
fully, THE MATHUSHEK
Piano Manufacturing Company.

The late Thomas Buchanan Read was a
gentleman of infinite wit. A banquet at
the Burnet House, Cincinnati, in 1862, at
which hundred prominent people were
at table, numbered Read and the Hon.
George Pugh among the guests. Late in
the evening, at that stage of banqueting
when the happiest things are said, Pugh
addressed Read familiarly:
"Buch, my old friend, you are too good
man to be Republican; you ought to
Join the Democratic church."
"That may be true, George" replied
Read, "but there is only one Pugh in that
church, and that is always full."-5srds

Hence she becomes entirely dependent

A eeNTLEMAN,s DEN.
Room in Which the Man of the House
Does just Whatever Pleases Him.

Room in Which the Man of the House
Does Just Whatever Pleases Him.
The "gentleman's den" is new de-
partment in the decorators emporium.
For long time we have had the priv
ilege of seeing chambers, parlors, living
and dining rooms made up in shop win
dows with the incest regard for detail
and accuracy imaginable. Now comes
the novelty in the shape Of an ideal for
den, where the man of the house can
do as he likes-smoke till his eyes are
blind and the lining of his mouth peels
and where his books, papers and slippers
are safe from the destroying hand of the
housemaid,. The model represented by
a local firm shows study in hand
painted English cotton, that cool, clean
fabric covering the walls. In the cell
ing, bordered with the palest blue cloth,
were figures from the pyramids in pict-
uresque groups. The frieze, also of print
ed cotton, is two feet wide, and repre-
sents a study from the hieroglyphics.
The floor is stained brown and a
couple of India rugs half cover it. The
furniture, while sparse, is substantial
and every piece served a purpose For
instance. the three chairs are large, easy
and luxurious; the Turkish couch, also
cotton covered. is provided with dull
red pillow and silver plush and leopard
skin slumber robe that would stand any
amount of rough usage for ten years at
least. On an Oriental coffee table the
smokers articles We're displayed and
near by stood a blackened iron crane
with kettle on the hook The only at
tempt at decoration was small bamboo
cabinet stained with walnut juice and
containing a sugar basin, water bottle,
can of alcohol and couple of glasses
and spoons. The writing stand on the
center table was the size of platter such
as a turkey is served from, and the glue
pot and ink bottles had the capacity of a
pint measure.
The only books on the table were a
dictionary and messengers tariff guide.
There was no cloth on the tables. no
tides on the chairs and no bric-a-brac to
be broken or busted Stained glass pan
els filled the upper windows and delicate
silk sash curtains the lower lights. The
appointment of den of this sort is
worth about 5000, and is referred to as a
hole in the wall where a bothered and
tired man may escape the horrors of
housekeeping, neighborly calls, piano
solos, elocution and baby talk.-New
