conceived so high an admiration that he sent agents to secure it all, at any price, to be used for church vestments at Rome.
 Many kinds of laces are now made which are handsome and very durable, many of them after Celtic designs taken from old books and manuscripts. These though interesting are not as marketable as those of newer patterns. Some beautiful prize designs from the Kensington schools of art have been worked out of late under the instruction of the ladies of the association, who in this mission of helpfulness are emulating the spirit of queens and saintly women of olden time, encouraging art and turning the skill and patience of the in dustrious poor to the best account.
 The making of Limerick lace has been recently revived, the women also work exquisite embroideries, hand loofn weaving of linen and wool is still carried on, and a great deal of elaborate knitting, crocheting and drawn work. Small ornaments of bog oak, the wood found in the peat bogs, are carved by women, who also weave the lighter grades of poplin.
 The association have as yet made no dei- nite plans for the exhibit, for their inten- ton is to display all these industries in attractive form at the exposition, bringing over some of the most skillful workers to carry on the processes of manfacture under the eyes of the visitors, a sight al- ways of peculiar interest to those who study the arts and crafts of different peo- ples as to those who like to. observe the deftness and cunning of that wonderfully complex and delicate piece of mechanism, the human hand.

COMICAL BIRDS. The Grotesque Pelican with its Husky Asthmatfc Whisper.

Four or five mangrove trees in the vicin- ity of Bird Key were occupied by colony of brown pelicans. The nests were a sim pie mass of refuse, twigs and seaweed, and the fotsam and jetsam of the ocean, upon which were perched two large blood mark ed eggs. A young pelican may be consid- cred one of the comical things in nature a grotesque, ill-proportioned animal, a modified do-do, and like that famous bird, of which an old writer said it was 'as re- markable to the eye as to the stomach. |" The voice of the pelican but adds to its ab surdity, being husky asthmatic whisper, writes correspondent of the San Francis co Chronicle.
 This patient bird, with its solemn, decor ous be airing, is victim to the laughing gull. The laughing gull, being lazy and heavy, labors at disadvantage in fishing, so prefers to borrow from its companion, ths pelican. The operation, which I have observed, ss well as it's sequal with thefri- gate bird, is as follow: The pelican flies along at a distance of about twenty feet from the water, occasionally precipitating itself upon school of small fry that, not being able to see an object directly over head, often become victims, and are cap tured by the long bill and pouch. Having caught the sardines, the pelican rights it. self, and for @ second floats serenely upon the surface, wagging its diminulive tail in satisfaction. To swallow the game, it tos-

THEY DO NOTLIKEIT,

THE DO NOI LILA K lIs
 It is sad that the people of this country can't satisfy their English cousins in business matters, but they can't. Here is the London Times wailing because the Hear it: The returns are unsatisfactory. The decline i'll exports is due chiefly to the lower value of manufactured articles, metals and imported raw materials for sundry industries and manufactures. In raw materials for textile manufactures there has been an increase of f700, ,000, and in food stuffs an increase of nearly e300, 900. The increase in the latter is due to the advance in corn, and not to an increased amount. The decline in ex- ports is distributed over the whole list. The Mckinley law has been the great cause of the disturbance. The pros pect of the law last year swelled exports to the United States while those markets were still open. English merchants and manufacturers availed themselves of the outlet, and were met with equal eagerness on the part of America to buy at lower rates. The Mckinley law now in force has had the effect expected and intended. Our exports to the United States have decreased under several headings, and although they have advanced under other headings this advance is not sufficient to balance the gen. eral trade loss. The figures for July are therefore lower than they otherwise would have been, and they compare unfavorably with the time when the exports were ab- normally large.
 And the St. James Gazette adds it's com plaint, saying: "The great decline in the exports of Great Britain is undoubtedly due to the operation of the Mckinley law in the United States" Such testimony as this is worth having.

sepuIeher. in RneIi.h Churches.


 There are about fifty examples of Easter sepulchers to be met with in this country. Sometimes they are only plain Oblong re- cesses; in some places they are richly dec orated with sculpture; and in two instances they consist of two parts, one al right an- sles to the other. They are generally placed on the north side of the chAncel, but are also to be seen in other positions. An example in Kingslknd church, Hereford shire, is on the north side of the nave and is entered from the porch. II is rather more than nine feet long. and less than five feet wide; and on the same adjoining the church is an arched recess pierced with four openings, through which ceremonies taking place in it could be seen from the interior of the nave. IL is lighted by un- glazed windows on the north and east sides With it lies an oblo1g mass of masonry that may be either tomb or Kn altar.
 wArwickshire has three examples. There are others in St. Andrews church, Cleve- don, St. Mary,s Hampton, St MichAel's Stanton Harcourt, and several in the neigh borhood of Leves- St PAtrick's church. Burlington, in Yorkshire, have also q par ticularly fine specimen. They were all meant to represent the tomb wherein our Lord WAS laid, and some were enriched with presentments of the soldiers and three AAry's; and in the days of actual dramatic representation of sacred subjects the whole scene of the burial and watching at them. We should probably have had many more remains of them but for the fact that they were often made of wood and removed from Easter to Easter.

Ine FoTheT Are TOO ADJ To Make
 Slaves of the Latter.
 [Emily Faithful in the North American Re
 viewl
 The truth is that mistresses, as a rule. have not yet accepted condition to which men in command of others have long since bowed-that pleasure and personal liberty in moderation must be accorded when the days work is done. Servants are mostly young women in the prime of life, with all the instincts of youth still upon them, and it is cruel to ignore their social needs Their followers and visitors are not well come to those in authority, and therefore less objection should be raised to their oc- casional efforts to obtain the companion ship of their own class outside the house when their work is done. I fear we must own to another fault in dealing with our servants; women scold and nag in a way which is unknown to men who are really fit to rule. They listen to the gossip of other servants and also lie in wait for the suspected delinquent. A wise mister knows the value of sometimes shutting his eyes, and will certainly let good employe have time 10 recover himself before he at tempts any approximation The ordinary mistress, unfortunately, summons the ser want before she has controlled her own temper, and the result is disastrous to both. If once "a hostile attitude" de- scribes the relation between the drawing room and the kitchen, state of constant friction must ensue. I do not ignore the trials experienced by the mistresses of un- trained servants; too often a succession of wasteful, ignorant girls pass, like phantss- magoria, across the threshold, leaving, however, very convincing proof of their reality in the wreck of kitchen utensils, | china and other household treasures. | Where large establishments are kept young | servants are carefully taught their seps- rate duties, but it is deplorable fact that girls who have passed the fifth school board standard are often incapable of | lighting fire or of washing wine glass without breaking it. They can read the "penny dreadful" :" but they cannot darn their stockings or mend their clothes The want of technical training is the dis advantage which has threatened to make servants failure, but our school boards are now waking up to their responsibili | ties; they have begun to include needle work and cooking in their list of subjects, and hope they will shortly add laundry | and housework.

the cruel custom of pulling out the fleece from the sheep by the rootis still practiced in Shetland. The finest wool is obtained in this way, and the secretary of the long named society should seek out the men who practice this savage custom, which is called "rueing."
 Mir. M. J. Verhoef, member of Peary's Greenland expedition, made quite sensa- tion in Arctic waters. In the first place, he startled the whole population of God havn by taking a swim in the icy waters of the harbor Of course the water was colder than the stormy Atlantic off Cape Cod in mid-winter, but that made no diff ference. verhoef was going to have 8 swim, and he had it. Then his bunk was too luxurious. He preferred the soft side of board, and all the rest of the way he slept on board with one thickness of blanket over him. Then, when the Kite was ramming her way through the ice, the young man thought nothing of running alongside, jumping from foe to foe. and when the distance between ice cakes was too great, plunging in and swimming across the gap. He is hardened to that sort of thing.

MONDAYS ELECTION,

MONDAYS ELECTION.
 The prospect that the Strong -Holcomb- Sheridan school ticket will be elected Mon day is very bright. Nobody pretends to say that it is not an excellent ticket, and many say that with it there was no need of another ticket. Of course it is well un- derstood that if there is another ticket in the field it will be in the interest of MT. O'Brien, who was at first reported as not wanting to run again. But it appears that he has changed his mind and is now anx- ious for reelection.
 We recommend all our readers who are voters to take the trouble to vote Monday, and to make sure that the Strong Holcomb- Sheridan ticket is elected. It was the first in the field, it has the indorsement of many of the best citizens of New Haven, and the voters cannot make mistake in voting It. Everybody knows that it is all right.
