Liveli les In England and Europe.

Liveries of uncommon and unheraldic
shades are more common in England
than on the continent The Blounts, for
instance dress their servants in Marengo
pepper and salt and there is to be seen
in the parks we'll known livery of vio-
let, with amaranthine facings-a rather
startling combination. However, as a
rule, good form and good taste are on
the side Of simplicity, and the habitual
black or dark coat, with only the colored
or striped waistcoat and the dress white
tie. The long white tie fastened with a
pin is only allowable to the coachman
and the footman who rides on the box.
The butler in England permits him
self or is permitted to indulge in Ii
cense which is unheard of abroad. He
appears till dinner time in dress coat
the rest of the costume being emphatic
ally morning one. Abroad this is new
er done Either this functionary does
not show, or he is invariably in a full
dress suit. On great occasions and in
some aristocratic houses this is ex-
changed for the black coat "a la Fran
caise," the black silk brooches and stock
ings, and sometimes even a slender court
sword, sheathed in black The con-
cierge or hall porter on gala days wears
a rich, heavy gallooned uniform, shoes
and silk hose, his big cooked hat Worn
straight across the forehead en- bataille,
and he carries tall, massive, silver
headed cane.
many capped overcoat has been almost
entirely superseded by the huge fur tip
pets and long fur cuffs reaching nearly
to the elbow. Some of these have been
known to cost large sums of money

The Bloomfield Shoe Company is the
name of the new organization for the
manufacture and sale of shoes in the
Skowhegan Companies building. The
name is very appropriate one and
comes from the fine old town of Bloom
field, which that part of our town south
and west of the kennebec bore before
the merging of both towns into one,
the unique and only Skowhegan that
sounds a trfle harsh TO the ear of ordi-
nary mOrtals until that sensitive organ
becomes accustomed to the name
Bloomfield is euphonious with a sug-
gestion of agricultural excellence
Skowhegan is a little off on euphony
and somewhat suggestive of the aborigi-
nal inhabitant. Our people are very
loyal to our town and its name but there
are those who occasionally whisper Il
vain regret, that, when the two towns
we've united the name Bloomfield, had
not been the one retained, and there are
others who shyly suggest that when we
become a fair city the name be Bloom
field.

The pilgrimage to Mecca has been ex-

number of pilgrims already being about
double that of last year Over 10000

is estimated an equal number have ar

The usual resultant conditions of the pill
grim season favorable to epidemics have
been consequently aggravated, and the

The most noticeable thing about the
American people, in the eyes Of an Aus
tralian recently arrived, is the fact that
they wear their finger nails closely cut
end very clean. InSidney or Melbourne
even the most aristoeratic gentleman
never thinks Of cleaning his finger nails,
and seldom cuts them. Even the lower
classes in the United States take good
care Of their nails, which is something
an Australian can scarcely comprehend.
Americans are busy people, and one can
hardly imagine when they find time to
bother with cutting or cleaning their
finger nails.
Another noticeable thing is your illu-
mination Of shop windows at night.
After s o'clock in Melbourne street the
streets are as dark as a cavern, and one
can walk for block or more without
seeing light. Here in San Francisco
there are lights in every window Even
after the shop is closed the proprietor
leaves electric lights burning to display
and advertise the goods in his window
A Melbourne merchant would regard
this as needless expense. Interview
with an Australian.

On the coast Of Kamchatka there is
an island known AS 1.-THE Island Of Talk
ing Dogs Thecurious story connected
with this little spot of land, and the one
which gives 1t the name it bears is this,
according to an odd Asiatic legend:
The first inhabitants Of the far north
did not employ dogs, but drew their
walrus rib sleds themselves. After ages
had elapsed men made an attempt touse
the dogs Of that region--which by the
way, talked just as men do--as beasts Of
burden. The talking dogs. however,
argued the case with their would be
masters and were not long in proving
that they had enough to do to catch
game for themselves and the children Of
men, But the men soon learned the use
Is0f the bow and the spear. thus running
the occupation Of the talking dogs.
Again an attempt was made to harness
them to sledges, but the talking CANNES
rabelled. and all swan out to the island,
afterward known BY the title given in
the opening. Here game was scarce
and the dogs soon turned cannibals, and
BY the end Of the first winter there were
only seven left,
Some human Kamchatkans volnn-
teered 10 rowout to the island and bring
of the remnant Of the dog colony. But
the dogs refused to leave their barren
island, each earnestly asking: aWhat
people are your We have never seen
you before" For this untruth Chalni,
the dog god, took their voices from
them. and until this day they have been
