THIRTY ORPHAN BRIDES YEARLY.


At the far. end of Naples lies the little
church of Santa Maria Annunziata, which
once year, on the "Day of Our Lady,"
wakes up into brief life and excite
ment In a silent row before the high
altar kneel thirty girls, all in black
garments, with folded hands and eyes
fixed on the picture OF the madonna
before them. These are orphans from
the neighboring ioundling asylum, and
once year all those who have reached
the age of eighteen are brought here TO
the church and may be chosen in marriage
by any honest man whose papers are in
order and whose character is good. At
the door leading to the sacristy leans a
gray-headed priest, the head of the
asylum. BY and by young man makes
his way from the back of the church and
hands him little packet Of papers.
These the priest reads carefully and.
being evidently satisfied, he gives back
the papers and leads the candidate
toward the row of girls. All their eyes
are fixed more steadfastly than ever on
the altar; all their hands are clasped
tighter together, their faces turn shade
paler, their hearts beat quicker as the
young man walks slowly along the row.
At last he stops. His choice is made.
He stretches out his hand with little
smile. The girl rises, casts long look
half thanks, half entreaty-at the
picture of the madonna, puts her hand
into that of the stranger and together
they disappear into the sacristy. i Bos-

A Queer Bridal Bouquet.

In Switzerland the orange and mrytlo
blossoms, those graceful symbols at we'd
dings, find their substitute in Gruyoro
cheese. On the day of her marriage tho
bride receives whole Gruyerc cheese,
which is religiously preserved in the
family. As time goes on various notcbes
are cut into IL, which serve to record
the birth, marriages, deaths, etc., occurr-
ingin the household and among the rela-
tives. Anyhow il may always serve as
provision for rainy day New York

Day VS.. Night.

A scientific writer says that night
is the time which nature utilizes for
the growth OF plants and animals;
children grow more rapidly during
the night In the daytime the sys-
TEN is kept busy disposng OF the
wastes consequent on activity, but
while asleep the system is free TO
extend its operations beyond the
mere replacing OF worn-out particles,
hence the rapid growth. This is why
invalids need so much rest and sleep.

when the first graduates will leave it,
the doors Of every university and pro
fessional school in the Fatherland will
be open to them. This seems probable,
as the prejudice against the capabilities
and the higher education of women in
Germany is fast giving way to a belief
of their intellectual equality with the
members of the sterner sex. The classes
and lectures in the gymnasium will be
held entirely in the afternoon, it being
the hope of the teachers that the lessons
may be prepared in the morning and
that night work will be unnecessary.

FASHION NOTES.

Mink borders and tails are used for
millinery and dress trimmings.
Colored frills and ruchings are suitable
for dress necks and wrists.
Suede finished cashmere gloves are
adapted for the coming cool days.
New velvet Spanish and Zouave jackets
are finished with ruchings of cream
colored guipure.
Tabliers, tunics and overskrts are a
! foregone conclusion.
Braiding is again in high favor on
skirts, redingotes, capes, sleeves, coats
and bo1ices.
French designers use red and green
shot velvet to trim brown bengaline,
cheviot and Scotch tweed gowns.
Red serge, camel's hair or sacking
dresses are combined with black watered
silk and trimmed with many rows of very
narrow jet gimp.
Charming capotes of jetted net have
for their trimming a scarf of the glossy
satin antique in ruby, Jacqueminot or
magenta red.
Velvet crowns are Of delightful metal
lie colors wrought in silk stitches that
may be very rich and glowing or in dark
tones to suit the most refined taste.
The old time face screens of peacock
feathers are revived
Sofa pillows Of denim are braided all
over and then couched with soft white
cord.
The so called gold bonnets, with
crowns of bullion embroidery, are very
effective with pleated brims of brown
velvet trimmed with parrots wings
standing out from choux of white chiffon
edged with gold picot loops. White
satin ribbon strings two inches wide start
from the back and are tied under the
chin in stiff bow.
Dainty misses and matrons are putting
huge flat sachets of orris root powder
under their rugs and carpets. 1t diffuses
the delicate odor throughout the atmos-
phere so much sought after in fashion
able drawing rooms.
1t is very fashionable to cut the back
of the bodice without a single seam, the
scanning being down on the glove fitting
lining, but as this style tends greatly in
appearance to shorten and broaden the
figure, only women with long slender
waists should select this style OF bodice.
Glass curtains are pet novelty Of the
hour. They are made of wee squares OF
colored glass, each framed in zinc, and
attached to each other by S-shaped
hooks.
Round waists have lost none of their
prestige, but are rivalled by basque
bodices and pointed corsages with frills
attached to the lower edge. Draped
double skirts will appear with winter
gowns, and accordion and kilt pleated
skirts are already seen-the pleats or
kills by contraction and expansion
wherever needed obviating the necessity
Of shaping by means Of scissors. Many
Of the balloon sleeves are now cut into
two moderately full puffs. Roll.over
collars are new, and with these small
cuffs appear.
Little folks are wearing some odd and
pretty clothes. School frocks are as
dainty as their purpose will permit; and
dress gowns are dreams. Crepon makes
up beautifully in Empress style for
maidens from five 10 seven years. There
is high cut yoke from which the skirt
hangs full and straight. Three exceed
ingly narrow ruffles of velvet finish the
skirt, and an Eton jacket OF velvet sup
plements the waist.

TO EFFECT A JOINING.

Most women are hollow in the back.
That is the reason their skirts sag and
dip and hang crooked. The new skirt
is very full, but it is cut to hang even all
around. To bring about this pleasing
effect giant hook and eye is being
used on all street suits. The eye goes
on the waist belt and the hook on the
skirt braid. When they meet firmly the
skirt will be straight, provided 1t is cut
right. These skirt hooks sell for few
cents and should be put in all the heavy
dresses. - st. Louis Republic.

The first gymnasium or college for
women in Germany was opened a few
weeks ago in Carlsruh, the fsn-shaped
capital OF the Grand Duchy of Baden.

oxELEr PARTIES THE LATEsT.

Omelet parties are the very latest fad
among society bellies and beaux. At a
recent entertainment given by the
members Of the Boston Cooking Club,
says the Washington Post, the gentle
men were invited to appear in full dress
at the residence OF one Of the leading
members. Upon arrival they were re-
ceived by the servants and ushered into
a room in which two tables were set.
On one were ranged ten small losves OF
bread, each with designating mark,
but conveying no hint Of the maker.
The second table was laid with plates
and forks. The company was requested
10 form two committees as bread judges
and omelet tasters. Badges had been
furnished the guests, consisting Of sprays
Of wheat for the committee on bread,
tied with heliotrope ribbon, and artist
cally designed with white satin hens for
the omelet committee members. In the
meantime the fifteen members Of the
club, all young girls from the highest
ranks OF society, were busily engaged
in the kitchen preparing dainty omelets
for the delectation Of their male friends.
Each prepared and sent to the room the

The new coat this fall is the smartest
garment fashioned in years. The illus
tration represents the one absolutely de-
sirable for winter wear, the full skirt,

really pretty etchings at from ten to fifty
cents, and can have it glazed and framed
IN fiat pine for quarter, you can make
very acceptable present for the merest
trife. You can glue the bark on
the frame or tack il on with
tiny brads, in this case allowing irregu-
lar bits to overlap and curl up.
All sorts of toilet articles are fashioned
from this accommodating material. A
very pretty handkerchief case can be
made from strips half an inch wide,
woven in and out as shown in the illus
tration. 1t must have silk lining of
blue or yellow or soft brown, either of
which forms a pleasant contrast with
the bark; between the lining and the
bark put layer of scented wadding and
turn back one corner to show the con-
trasting silk. 1t must be bound with
narrow ribbon, feathers stitched on. Rib
bon and bark can be woven in alternate
strips for change.

gin.
A narrow strip of the celluloid, with
Sits cut up the sides, through which
ribbon is run, tying in a bow at either
side at the top, then bent double and
suspended with ribbons, makes a most
convenient broom holder. A few grasses
painted on the front in sepia and what
ever color harmonizes with the ribbons
used gives it pretty finish. The only
opening is at the sides, both ends being
laced together with the ribbon at the
top.

United at Last,
AND Their AUSP-CIOUS UNION is
Fifty Celebrated in the rnteiiiGcncer's'
Art Portfolio of Worlds Fair Views.
Thousands saluto Them aud Con-
CALCULATIONS Come Thick and Fast.

It is seldom that any work is pub
lished which from the very start is 80
popular and highly priced as the INTEL
LIGExcggs Art Portfolios OF Worlds
Fair views now being distributed.
The reason Tor this is obvious. In the
series /. is perceived that the artistic
and educational features are SO happily
blended as to furnish the best and most
convenient method OF gaining an ac-
curate knowledge OF all the important
features OF the exposition. 1t is, as 1T
we're, wedding OF those children OF the
ages Though ever young education
and art; golden wedding, indeed
since it represents all the best achieve
ments Of every nation through centuries
OF time.
The happiy.mated pair are high in
favor with the people, since congratuIa,-
tions come pouring in upon them, and
each visitor to their receptions, held
daily at the INTELMGgNcEE Art foft'
folio department, is presented win II
superb set OF exposition views IN COM
memoration OF their union.
Among those who come to pay their
respects are people OF every rank in lie
and OF every profession, and all unite IN
praisiug the portfolios, That these
words OF commentator are sincere can
be known from the fact that there Is
always q big rush TO leave the six
coupons and the ten cents.
The mail orders are also enormous
which shows that tine interest is gener-
al. /! should be remembered that,
while each portfolio forms 81 import
ant integral part Of the series, every one
is nevertheless complete. Consequent
" subscribers can begin at any time,
When one OF the portfolios is in hand,
however. the importance OF having the
whole series will BIO easily apparent.
This can be accomplished with little
patience, rs will appear from the ad-
yerIisement on page three oil TINS morn

Those who did not save tho coupons
for the first part should remember that
they can secure it for a quarter, the
