NEW YEARS IN THE SOUTH.

Visiting In . Canvas Covered Mule Wagon.
Unique and Gorgeous Cards.
The custom of New Years calls in the
southern states sometimes approaches the
ludicrous. 1t is not uncommon for four
or five young men to procure a canvas
covered wagon, such as Is common in the
south and west, drawn by four mules,
with negro to drive.
Bountifully supplied with elaborate Wis.,
iting cards, they begin their rounds.
Sometimes the cards are large affairs on
which the photographs Of the individuals
have been crudely pasted above their care
fully penned autographs. Again they are

with impossible feathers and scroll de-
scribing impossible curves, with all sorts
and kinds of greetings" interviewer and

The party is admitted to the houses dur
ing the early hours of the day, but when
the demijohn gets low and the spirits rise
in proportion it is considered quite proper
to hang basket outside the door, into
which the cards are dropped by the dusky
hand of the attendant.

on Christmas day, lying in wait behind a

Those whose hearts and pockets they fail

ONE SAD NEW YEAR.

Diaries There Were A-plenty, but OF Ideas
Woeful Lack.
1t was New Years night. The house
had long since been wrapped in sleep.
The brooding quiet was intense. Only
of street car bells penetrate the quiet
room, and there was no other sound. The
peace was solemn in its noiselessness. 1t
was the first night of the new year.
In her long clinging robe Of pale blue
she sat at her desk. Her hair fell about
her shoulders in the most approved style.
There were dark circles beneath her large
blue eyes, pallor upon her young cheeks,
hopeless melancholy on all her delicate
features From time to time she dipped
her pen-a slender rod of silver-into her
silver inkstand, but she wrote no word.
Sometimes a deep drawn sigh would
shake her fragile form, sometimes impetu-
Gus anger would cloud her brow, and once
or twice, with movement of despair, she
laid aside the pen and let her arms droop
wearily by her side. She struggled as one
who longcd yet could not bring herself to
write certain words. And through all
the mental conflict the silence of the New
Years night was unbroken.
Finally she arose. dipping the pen and
pushing aside her chair impatiently.
Its shame" he muttered, "a perfect
shame. The idea of having three lovely
new diaries and not a single Marie Bash
kirtseffish thing to put down in one of
them! It's a shame"
She turned out the light, and once again
the silence of the night was unbroken.-

New Years In Old New York,

The old New York Dutch were well
bred people, and New Years customs in
the eighteenth century were punctilious-
ly observed Among the middle class
Dutch dances were held at tho houses on
New Years night, and the refreshments
offered the guests were of many sorts, but
invariably the dish Of chocolate was serv-
ed. The negroes of New York, of whom
there were many in those days, also OBJ
served the event in their own way. They
thronged tho markets, sang and danced
and filed the streets with the discordant
sounds of their tomtoms and horns. In
deed all classes had to give due heed to
New Years, because among the good
Dutch folks it was decreed Whoever
fails in due honor and allegiance, be his
fate never to sip the dew from the lips of
the lass he loveth best ON New Years eve
or morn, never to taste of hot spiced San
ia Cruz, never to know the delights of
mince pies and sausages swimming in the
sauce of honest mirth and homo felt jolli-

The Old and the New.
The old year laid upon the portals of the past
A trembling hand
And said, ''Oh, let me die and be at rest
Within thy misty land'
Then all the years that lived and died before
Reached forth and drew the wanderer safe
within the door.
The New Year laid upon the portals of today
A firm young hand
And said, "Oh, let me come and live and work
Within thy shining land!'
Then all the years that are to be replied,
"This is your world, and drew the youth In
