A SWELL AFFAIR.
The German Club Royalty Enter
tanned at the Home OF Gov.
and Mrs. Merriam.
\ Very Intricate CotiIIion Led by
Charley Gordon, and livery
body Delighted.

The most beautiful social funrtlon OF
the year was the party at the home of
Mrs. Gov. Merriam, on University ave-
nue.. last night. The guests were mem
berS of the German club, who had been
invited TO meet with Mrs. Merriam to
hold the last party CT the old year. The
handsome rooms were all thrown open
and decorated for the affair. In the
governors library bows Of fragant lilacs
perfumed the air. The middle paror
was trimmed with La France and Amer
lean Beauty roses, while the chandeliers
were hidden by wreaths of SmilaX, us
also were those of the front parlor,
where magnificent chrysanthemumS in
various tintS filled tie vases Oh the
mantelS.
The supper was laid in the din ing
room. which still held suggestions of
the season in table and wall decora-
tons. The various dances filled the
time before supper, which was served
at II, after which the eOtillion was
formed, lead by Charles Gordon, who is
prince of leaders. The figures were
unique, and most surprisingly given.
III Mrs. Merriam'S library the Christ
mas tree, with all its wealth of sparkle
and glow so suggestive of these merry
holiday times, was decorated with thir-
ty-eight queer, big, suggestive parcels in
commonplace thin brown paper while
very pretty Japanese baskets hung Gil
the GOughS, and fierce, Widemouthed
crOcOdileS summed themselves on con-
venient limbs of this accommodating
tree. When the time came for awarding
the favors, the surprise of the evening
0ccurred:tWO tiny ebony natives of Nu-
Da. dressed "a la ballet" appeared on
| the scene. These "slaveS OF the lamp"
seemed to be seWed to Mr.. Gordon's
service, and at his bidding took
the mysterious parcels from the
tree, and 10! they resolved themselves
into exquisite Leghorn hats for the
heads of the pretty girls whose glanc-
ing feet in the dance had won them.
| Each was as lovely as the other, and
each different They were trimmed
with bows Of ribbon OF velvet and beau
tiful plumes, and were altogether
lovely. The queer little dolls that these
gnomes handed to the men resolved
themselves into comical paper hats to
be worn and kept as trophies of the
! evening. The Japanese baskets were
for the girls, and the fierce reptiles from
old Nile for the men. The pr.ZeS were
handsome silver match box for the
man and beautiful silver comb for the
woman. Altogether this Was german
long to be re membered.

Cheerfulness a Duty,

A lady writes: Are we not all in
clined to make too much of our own
SORROWS? A mother and father who
have, perhaps, lost those who were
dearest to them-those. among their
children, in whom they took the great
est pride and comfort. and can hardly
realize that they have much Ieft-are
such as these justified in Keeping a
darkened house and wearing upon their
faces look of unutterable woe?
Should they not rather pu. aside their
own feelings. and, in the midst of their
family, make life as bright and happy
as possible? Is it not 8 positive duty to
do this? Who can tell flow many tfiore
years. or even months, they will spend
together? And how very selfish to
keep them buried In grief because our
own hearts are sore. The young, es-
pecially children, need sunshine and
brightness as much as fresh air and

A FEATHER BUSTER.
One Not Made of Feathers. but
just as Good.


Just as Good.
The tiny feather buster has become
feature among household implements.
1t is one of those handy little things of
which the housekeeper is won't to de-
clare that she REALLY could not keep
house without it, after she has once
owned one and tested its merits.
The favorite size is no larger than a
small orange, while its handle is at least
three teet long. With such cunning
little buster as this the housewife who
rejoices to think that the shelf of her
cabinet and her dainty bits of bric-a-
brac are free from dust is enabled to
reach her treasures without any extra
eXertion.
But, like very many desirable little
tritieS, the tiny feather buster is eX-
penSive. Its cost is often greater than
that of the larger members of the
feather-duster family, ard, as it is not
very durable, the housewife is apt to
think twice before eXpendlDg the dimes
required for its possession.
There is a very pretty way of making
lOng-handled busters, so that they are
nearly or quite as good as the feather
busters, and are, moreover, pretty
enough to be hung up in conspicuous
place. TO manufacture the busters it
is necessary to cut several very large
sheets Of tissue paper.
Suppose you select blue as that is the
fashionable color of the season, Or you
may choose any other color that will
harmonic with the appointments of
your room. Fold the paper until it con-
sists OF a long strip very many thick
nesses deep. A large sheet of tissue
paper will fold into, perhaps, twenty
four thicknesses. Now cut it exactly as
if you were cutting fringe. let
ting the fringe be about four
inches deep. Have the fringed
strips very narrow, letting them be
scarcely wider than match. When
you have cut the full length Of your
paper strip, bind it securely around the
stick which remains from your last
feather buster. and, over the ragged
edge which is formed by twisting the
paper around the stick, tie knot of
ribbon.
The whole affair will not cost more
than eight or ten cents and you will find
it SO Serviceable and pretty that, when
it Is gone, you Will want to make an.
other.

EMPEROR DOM PEDRO.
The Old Gentleman's Joke on the
Railroad Man.

Railroad Man.
Tie late Emperor Dom Pedro, of Bra
I'll, once gave audience to young engi-
neer who came to show him new ap-
pliance for stopping railway engines.
The emperor was pleased with the thing
and said:
.'We will put it at once to a practical
test. The day after tomorrow have your
engine ready; we will have it coupled
to my saloon carriage and then fire
away. When going at full speed L will
unexpectedly give the signal to stop,
and then we will see how the apparatus
works"
AT the appointed time the emperor
entered his carriage, and tue engineer
mounted his engine, and on they went
for a considerable distance. Indeed, the
Young engineer began to suspect that
the emperor had fallen asleep, when the
train suddenly came to a sharp curve
around the edge of a cliff. OH turning
which the driver saw. to his horror, an
immense boulder lying on the rails.
He had just sufficient presence of
mind to turn the crank of his brake and
pull up the engine within couple OF
wards of the fatal block.
Here the emperor put his head out of
the window and asked what they were
stopping for. The engineer pointed to
the piece of rock, Oh seeing which Dom
Pedro burst into II merry laugh.
Push the thing OH one side!' he
called out to the engineer, who had
Jumped down from the locomotive. and
when the latter, in his confusion, blindly
obeyed and kicked the stone with his
foot 1t crumbled into dust.
1t was block of starch that Dom
Pedro had ordered to be placed on the
rails the night before.

a CHECK TO RIIRTH.

Eowa Young Auctioneer Came to

There Was resting spell with the

by his box looked at him.
"Gone"' inquired the reporter, as the
auctioneer sat down. tired.
''Well, Eve been going all morning
and ought to be-" responded the auc-
tioneer.
You ought TO be a funny man,
great American humoriSt. or something
of that sort" suggested the reporter.
"Bosh Billings was one, and he got

was that way myself when first began,
but had an experience that cured me
OF the habit before II had fixed itself
permanently"
The reporter turned face full o. in
terrogatlOn points on the auctlOneer and
he kept on.
Il was called on once to sell by auc-
ton lot OF household furniture belong
lug to man and his wife who had been
married four or five years. All | knew
about it was that death somewhere
neceSSitated their removal from my
town, and, as they had 10 money. they
were compelled TO sell their effects to
get enough to move on. Well, | was
having picnic in my young and foolish
way, guying and bantering and making
brilliant and witty side remarks Oh tn
articles as they came under the hammer,
so to speak. though | don't remember
ever having used hammer or seen any
other auctiOneer use one. After | had
disposed of lot of stuff cradle was
put up. There were several young men
OF my acquaintance in the crowd, and l
smiled at them as | turned the cradle
round and began to rock it, humming
lullaby as did so. Empty is the cradle,
baby'S gone | said, and was going on
to say something else to get laugh,
when | happened to look down into the
face of a woman close to the platform |
was standing on. She was dressed III
faded black, evidently given her by some
woman larger than she was. and there
Was look in her eyes and a tension OF
the lines across her forehead and a pitt
full weakness about her QuIVering lips
that made me stop. She stood close TO
the platform. and the crowd was all at
her back. SO they had not noticed her.
She didn't speak, but as | stopped she
looked up at me with the tears starting,
and lifting her hands in mute appeal
Of remonstrance no WOrGS could de-
scribe, she gave a great sob OF agony
and turned away.
IL didn't know was all ] could
stammer in apology. And | didn't
know that 1t was her baby's cradle L
was selling, and because the cradle was
empty ner heart was broken and she
