1t would be impossible to estimate
the extent of the procession. 1t would
hardly be exaggerating it to state that
1t was the largest ever formed in this
country. The veterans came from all
sections of the land. Here and there
in the procession could be seen a grey

how the conquered can respect the

with thunders of applause from the

A Romantic Maiden. Mistake.

She was very romantic. Her father was millionaire, whose life had been de- voted to sausage raising. He was very practical naturally, but all the poetry of her family was right in her. She was be- loved by another millionaire's son, but she had been reading romances and stuff, and when he proposed to her she declared he must do something poetical for her.
 Dearest, what can dof''
 "BecOme poor artist
 'I couldn't be any other kind of an art ist."
 "I mean you must pretend to be poor artist. Pa does not know you. You must come and make love to me and I will fall in love with you. Pa will object and make row. We will elope and get married, and when it's all over we'll tell him, and it will be delightful"
 And so he became poor artist and took 9 poor studio and daubed on canvases and pretended to paint pictures. And there was another millionaire's daughter got to coming to his studio and sitting for her picture. In those delightful little tete-a- tetes he forgot all about the romantic maiden, and when the romantic maiden came one night in peasant costume as a sweet surprise to run away with him she found he was married to the othe girl and had gone of on his honeymoon. She thinks that romonces are all lies now, and that nothing happens in real life as it hap pens in books. She's about right.-San Francisco Chronicle 'Undertones.

Two Glasses of Russian Priests.

The priesthood of the Russian church is composed of two classes, the white and black clergy. The latter are monks be- longing to the several orders of religious seclusion, and from their numbers all the bishops and higher ecclesiastical officials are chosen. They are teachers in the schools, also tutors in the families of the nobles, and many of them have been cele- brated for their scholarship, their artistic genius and literary gifts. Asceticism is not practiced as it is in the Roman church, except by certain orders in monastic life and in the fulfillment of vows. During the last century the church estates were secularized and confiscated by tine crown; then the emancipation of the serfs de- prived the religious orders of a great part of their wealth, some of the monasteries owning 10000, 90,000 and even 50000 serfs. This was a severe blow to them, and only few, such as were possessed of other wealth, survived it. At present there are about 800 monastic establish ments throughout the empire, and most of them are wealthy.
 There is feeling of bitter hostility ex- isting between the white and black clergy. The former are the city and village priests, or popes, as they are called. They accuse the black clergy of laZiness and indiffer- ence to their vOws.-Wilham Eleroy Cur tis

Lady and Woman.

Mrs. Lynn Linton calls attention to the curious fact that whereas fifty years ago gentlewomen said mamma" and were called ladies" while humber people said mother" and were called ''wounen," we have now made kind of verbal somersault. What used to be the sign of dignity has become the shibbo- leth of vulgarity aping gentiity, while the old badge of the common folk has been adopted by the upper classes. The philosophy of the matter lies, we are told, in the strange desire to be thought socially better than we are, which leads in time to the universal adoption of a title that once had definite meaning.
 The inevitable consequence is the re- turn of the higher to the simple con- ditions abandoned by the lower, for ''the fine feur' always separates itself from it's immediate imitators and prefers to adopt the style and manner of those who are too far removed for the possibility of confusion. "Woman," in Mrs. Linton's opinion, IS taking an almost Junoic sym bolism-grand, supreme, all embracing, while "lady" has fallen to the ground like an overripe plum in the heart of which the wasps have been at work London News.

His First Days Fight.

'"The constant hissing of the bullets with their sharp ping or bizz whispering around and sometimes into us. gave me sickening feeling and cold per spiration. 1 felt weak around my knees "a sort of faintness and lack of strength in the joints of my legs, as If they would sink under me-" writes Mir. Goss in his 'Recoilections of Private"
 About II o'clock we saw emerging from the little ravine to the left of Fort Magruder a swarm of Confeder- ates, who opened on US with terrible and deadly fire. Then they charged apon us with their peculiar yell.
 We took all possible advantage of the stunps and trees as we wore pushed back until we reached the sdge of the wood, where we halted and fired upon the enemy from behind all the cover the situation afforded. We were none of us too proud-not even those who had the dignity of shoulder straps to support-to dodge behind tre9or a stump.

Best Material for Clothing.

The primary object of clothing in cold climates is to retain the heat of the body; in hot climates it may serve the opposite purpose of protection from the sun, while in any place a secondary put most i'm portant object is ornament. As to mate rial wool is the best for retaining heat, for it is bad conductor, and, preventing loss, feels "warm" It is particularly de sirable as underclOthing for children and old persons, who have not much power of resisting cold, and require warm cover ings. In climate with rapid changes in temperature the great value of woolen underclothing is recognized by it's univer- sal use to maintain an equitable warmth
 In hot weather cotton underclothing is cooler, because it is a better conductor of heat, and therefore allows of more loss; but then it at the same time conducts more of the external heat to the skin, and thus protects it less, and it involves the risk of sudden and rapid fluctuations of temperature. Furs, like wool, preserve the heat, while linen and silk, like cotton, allow it to be more quickly lost.
 The color of the outer clothing makes some difference, for black and dark shades like dark blue absorb the suns rays, while light bright colOrs and white reflect them. The former are, therefore, suitable for winter, and the latter are preferred in summer for their coolness, care being taken that the thickness, nature and ar engagement of the garments yield the de- sired effect. So far as fit is concerned, loosely fitting articles, other things being equal, are warmer than tightly fitting ones, because the latter interfere with the circulation, as cold hands and feet in tight gloves and boots amply testify.-C. F. Pollock in The Chautauquan.
