DON'T Run. the Old Man In Debt.

From the Boston Courier.
woman looks well in a beautiful dress.
All right minded men admit that.
And her charms are enhanced, even cynics confess,
By love of a bonnet or hat.
But, wife. please remember, when signing for show
And longing to shine in your set
That dresses cost money and bonnets also,
And don't run the old man in debt.
Don't run the old man in debt
Don't make for him worry and fret
Have clothing that's nice, but look out for the
price,
And don't run the old man in debt
IT'S often woman's desire to be ihonght
IN her circle the very top crust,
But If social supremacy cannot be bought
For cash do not get it on trust
Tis pleasant to be on the top of the heap.
But to stay there takes money. you bet
So count the cost well Of being swell
And don't run the old man in debt
Don't run the old man in debt,
Don't make for him worry and fret.
Your kite you may hy till it touches the sky
But don't run the old man in debt.
It's quite delight to go shopping no donbi.
The hobby OF matron and maid.
For women take pleasure in looking about
When beautiful goods are displayed.
But while you see bargains that you might desire,
Their purchase might cause you regret
Don't buy any goods that you do not require
And don't run the old man in debt.
Don't run the old man in debt,
Don't make for him worry and fret.
Buy the things that you need, but always lake
heed
Aud don't run the old man in debt
Though one may the love of nice things understand
And underwear dainty and light.
What's the use of diamond clasp on band
That always is hidden from sight?
On ornaments that are concealed from the view
Dontlet your affections be set,
Buy only the things that are useful to yon,
And don't run the old man in debt
Don't run the old man In debt,
Don't make for him worry and fret.
Pray look out when you buy pretty things that
come high
And don't run the old man in debt.
Your neighbors, of course, you may try to out
shine
'Tis falling that's common 10 all.
Perhaps from the first that was natures design.
Or maybe it came with the fall.
But don't be by promptings of vanity led,
However your wishes may set
If Eve had her failings, 1t cannot be said
That she ever ran Adam in debt
Don't run the old man in debt,
Don't make for him worry and fret.
Be stylish and gay If you're built in that way.
But don't run the old man in debt

Men Who Give Big Dinners
From washington Star.

From Washington Star.
The most expensive household in Wash
ington is that of Senator Brice, who occu-
pies the old Corcoran residence. He has
French cook, and probably spends not
less than $1,000 a year for food alone.
His chef often buys as much as $40 worth
ofvegetables and fruits in morning at
the market, or perhaps he will purchase
$50 worth of imported grapes at once.
The Brices give dinners night after night
in the season, at which from 30 to 100
guests sit down. The hospitality of the
ric Illinois congressman, Mr.. Hit, is on
similar scale His establishment is pro-
badly the most costly here, except Brice's.
As is usual also at the Brices dinner at the
Hits are commonly served on many ta-
bles. Perhaps there viii be as many as
twenty tables scattered about the dining
room, drawing room, and hall, with half a
dozen guests at each. This plan is quite
fashionable nowadays, but conservative per-
sons declare that the people who do not
happen to find themselves at the same ta-
bles with the master or mistress Of the
massion are being entertained not by them,
but by the servants. In short, the din
ner, however ine, is 600 much on the hotel
style. Various minor objections are urged
against this method. 1t is much more
expensive, requiring score Of walters for
as many tables. This is Of no consequence
to millionaires, of course. BUTT is fact
that the walters, having entire charge Of
the entertaining, exercise favoritism that
is pleasing to some and quite displeasing to
others For example, one table will get
three hotties Of champagne, while another
obtains only one bottle.
Many diners-out say that the best din
ners in Washington are given by the mil
lionaire dry-goods man, L. z. Letter. At
his entertainments there is never more than
one table. His new 81, 100000 palace on
Dupont Circle is on such scale that re-
past Of 200 covers may be served in the
largest music-room. The marketing for
the establishment is done by an English
butler, who has been with the family for
many years. He is a remarkable man in
many ways. and he is great favorite with
society people here. The kitchen Of the
new Letter mansion is on scale for
hotel. Its floor is of polished oak, and the
walls are tiled to height of six feet.
There are ventiIators and fans to carry out
the odors of fcooking Connected with the
nine-foot range are charcoal hroilers. The
scullery, like that of the British legation,
is Independent and apart. The establish
ment employs four men in the stable, four
in the house, three ladies' maids, three
woman in the kitchen, two women in the
landry, aud two housemaids--in all eigh-
teen persons. This is not an extraordinary
number Of servants. Senator Brice his
more, and Levi P. Morton had greater
number when he lived IN Washington

To the lovers of strange goods the ba-
zaars of Damascus are far from alluring
than those of Cairo or of COnstantinople.
The capacious chests of the merchants con-
tain much that We would buy were our
purses longer. Old embroideries Of won
derful colors, delicate china, silks of many
hues, swords Of cunning workmanship, all
these lie piled besides US on the floor. It
is but seldom that really good specimen
of the Dapascus sword can be obtained,
for the art of working and engraving steel
is dead. These swords were made Of al
ternate layers of iron and steel, so finely
tempered that the blade would bend to the
hilt without breaking, with an edge 50 keen
that no coat Of mail could resist it, and
surface so highly polished that when
Moslem wished to rearrange his turban he
used his sword for looking glass.

Who Invented the Piano P

From New York Commercial Advertiser
The honor of inventing the piano is
claimed by the English, French and Ger
mans. FrWood,a AN English monk at Rome,
is said to have been the real inventor, in
It'll, and to have manufactured one, which
he sold to Samuel Crisp the author of
Virginia, from whom it was purchased
by Fulke Greville, though Count CARL
claims the credit for Barthlomeo Christofori,
of Pagua, during his stay in Florence, some
three years later (l714.) The French at
tribute the invention to Partisan named
Marius, who, they allege, producedi in 1716
harpsichord, in which hammers had been
substituted for the plectrums or guilds.
The Germans are the last in the field, with
J. G. Schroeder, of Dresden, who claimed
Q717,) when eighteen years of age, to
have constructed, after much consideration,
the model of new clavier, with hammers,
upon which he could play loudly or softly.

1t is certainly true that the silk waist
has come to stay, and the dealers are
selling more of them this spring than
ever before, They have so many ad.
vantageous points to begin with, they
are cool and comfortable, and have a
fresh, puffy appearance which is desir-
able; then again, they are inexpensive
and can be worn with any kind of a
skirt, giving new effect at very
small cost
The silk waist range in price from
three dollars and seventy-five cents
to twenty-five dollars, and every kind
and quality of silk is used In the
cheaper grade a changeable surah is
used a great deal and the waist is made
full, on tight lining, with two rutfles
running across the back and front, by
way of trimming. All the expensive
waists are lined and boned and quite
as many go inside as outside of the
skirt A fetching little waist, with
two rufiles around the belt, is called
the "frisli," and it is very pretty on 4"
small slender figure.
People who do not care for the
changeable can purchase an inexpen-
sive waist in a quiet color, such as
brown, Llack or navy blue, and these
will be very scrviceaGle for travelling
and general street wear

There was crowd on Fourth avenue

couple of policemen, half dozen
women and a dozen men. The little
girl was lost. The policemen knew it,
the women knew it, the crowd knew it
and the little girl herself knew it.
Now the problem everyone was trying
to solve was where the little girl be-
longed. That, neither the policemen,
the women, the crowd nor the little
girl knew.
Where do you liveP" asked police
man.
The little girl looked up in a fright
ened way and shook her head.
poor little dear-where does your
mother live?" asked one of the women,
thinking to get at the problem in a
roundabout way.
Still the little girl shook her head.
Finally newsboy appeared on the
scene. He eyed the assemblage con-
temptuously.
Here" he said to the dog, "go home,
sir" OFF started the dog, the little girl
hanging on to his shaggy coat and the
crowd following behind. Down Fourth
