The Advantages of Conversation

The most agreeable way of getting
Information is by conversation. If YOU
talk with well informed person, who
can express clearly his ideas on any
subject in which you are interested,
you can ask questions, you can have
explanations, You can go over the sub
iect until you thoroughly understand
it, and searching out in this way. in
the mind of another. thing which
you earnestly desire to know, you are
more likely to remember it and to
profit by it. This is why competent
teacher is better than any text book.
Besides, talk inspires both the speaker
and the listener-the one becomes
more eager to know and the other more
eager to colnmunicate.-Ch Charles bud
ley Warner in st. Nicholas.

Solomon. With the many changes of
centuries, tie graduation of ciiignons

The Scriptures narrate great many
Kings about the style of dress worn in

The tunic spoken of in the time OF
King Solomon was very much like the
polonaise of the present TING The
belts and fancy girilles and clasps and
buckles are the same thing as the
leather Sirlies and silver buckles worn
in the Bible times. We also find
recorded the fact that trains We're worn
to dresses, and that camels' hair sllawls
we're common among the ladies' of that
lge. Embroidered mantles are also
mentioned, and they were fastened with
gold pins. The lair must have been
quite deliberately dressed to Judge from
Bible descriptions, and many orna-
and put up in coils. Little curls were al
lowed to hang loose over the forehead.
md strange as it sounds the young
ladies of SolOmon's time used paint to
make their cheeks red.
Wells We're worn, and the sandals
were made of blue and violet colored
leather with fancy lockcts.
Solomon, it is related, said to Shu-
laInite: How beautiful are thy feet

Film nets were worn and earrings of
great value were commonly used.
Bracelets were worn upon the right
arm instead of the left, strings of
pearls and heavy gold chains around
the neck, rings on the fingers and
other ornaments were fashionable.
There are many bellies spoken of by
women in the Bible, and the history OF
some of their love stories is very touch
ing.
The beauty of the women of that
time is often mentioned, and life must
have been much as it is now among the
young people. If you will examine the
Scripture to find anything used mt the

NO NEW TRIAL..

The State has failed TO secure new trial
IN its suit against the first bond of Steven
son Archer recently tried in the Circuit
Court for Baltimore county, at Towson, in
consequence of divided court. The assent
Of both judges was necessary In order to sc.
cure new trial II has been the impres-
sion for some time that the delay was in
consequence of a divided court, and while
it can be nothing more than surmise, it is
believed that Judge Fowler was in favor of
new trial and Judge Burke opposed to it..
1t is not customary to file written opinions
except In equity cases, and the only entry
made was : "The court being divided on
the motion for a new trial, the motion is
overruled, and it is so ordered by the court "
The jury brought In verdict January 16
of 100000, which was less than half the
States claim Of $121 ,02907. Attorney Gen
eral Whyte at once filed motion for new
trial on the ground that the verdict was not
in accordance with the evidence, was against
the instructions of the court and was palpa
bly, insufficient. The motion for a new trial
was argued January 81, by Messrs. Whyte
and Poe for the State and Carter and Cans
for the defendants.
The State has now pending in the Circuit
Court for Hartford county bill in equity
filed by Attorney General Whyte against
the devisees and legatees of Henry w
Archer for $125,000, less sc, 100, which has
not yet been distributed, and which is
still in the hands of the executor. If this
suit be won by the State the defendants must
apportion among themselves the amount
which each shall pay. The suits against
the second and third bonds will be taken
up at Towson on March 8, unless they
should be further postponed.
