A Tale of Three Cities.

The late Professor McElroy of thu
University of Pennsylvania, as every
one knows, was an ardent Philadelphia
with great pride in the city and ambi
tious for it's success as metropolis.
On this subject he made the following
witticism in his classroom, which for the
first time appears in print:
1.-THE trouble with Philadelphia, he
said, isn't its lack of self appreciation
It has intelligence and wealth sufficient
to make it one of the leading cities Of
the world, but unfortunately it lacks
civic pride.
eff a. liberty pole were erected on Bos
ton common, the citizens of Boston
would unitedly proclaim that it was the
finest liberty pole ever erected.
eff liberty pole were erected in Cen
trail park, the people of New York would
universally insist that it was the costli
est liberty pole ever raised in the world
"But if in Philadelphia liberty pole
were erected in Paramount park, Phila
delphians would at once declare that
they did not believe any liberty pole was
there. "-Philadelphia Call.

Capes and jackets give the predomi-

capes are often high and fluted, but free

narrow braid, while for carriage and
evening wear there are long and short
pelerines of colored velvet, made quite

fat boa ends of bearskin, or a pointed
shoulder cape and border of ermine.
Jackets are considered the most becom-
