MY LADY's NOTE PAPER
She Wants n Crest, Even When Not
PornliSSi bic.

She Wants n Crest, Even When Not
Permissible.
The lady of fashion is putting her
newest and best idea at the head OF her
note paper. White or dark gray is the
color OF the paper but ideas in crests,
arms and monograms, varied in color
and designs, are used by her. The latest
adornment is thum b-nail sketch of her
country home or picture OF a tavorite
nook on her country estate. A thoroughly
decorous person, however, would not
| think OF writing on such notehead, eX-
cept from some suburban retreat, says
the New York Sun.
A lady who has cottage on the shore
of small lake near Paul Smiths, and
calls her place Pine Point, has embossed
on the top of her note paper point OF land
jutting out into a lake and bearing lone
pine. A Tuxedo resident decorateS her
letters in similar manner, and has
printed in old English letters under the
picture, "Ye RustliBg Pines" the name
of her Tuxedo home. n few days ago
gentleman who received communlca-
tion from lady at LenoX saw at the
head of the note an engraving of large
fireplace, before which slept a dog on a
rug. He recognized at once a corner in
the library OF the lady's country resi-
dence, and before tn. her favorite
dog. Just now the fac snaile of the writ
er's handwriting in gold. silver or bronze,
or her initials in blended colors, crowded
into space as largo as penny, are fre-
quently used. :.
The modern woman of fashion does not
seem to care that she is using crest with
out warrant or TO know that in using one
at all she is usurping a mans preroga-
tive.
"You will not find one woman in a
hundred who is familiar with the rules of
heraldry," said a fashionable stationer
recently. Ladies insist OH having crests
embossed on their writing paper, even
when | tell them that they are permitted
by the usages of centuries to use only the
arms. A few days ago handsome
woman came in and said: Mr.. B, l
wish you would put crest and arms on
my paper / knew it would be useless to
argue about the crest, and so l asked her:
Have you your crest with you" oh,
no! l haven't any, she answered. You
can make me nice one, can't your L
learned that her husband was grain
dealer, so for crest | designed sheaf of
| wheat. For the arms L designed some
hawk heads on shield, and she was de-
lighted"
Women who are interested in these
things should observe the regulations set
down for the use OF spiDsterS. married
women and widows. A specified frame
for the arms should be used by each
The spinster is required to put her family
arms into a diamond frame, with very
simple adornment. When a woman
marries, the arms of her family must be
put on the same shield with her hus-
band. The shield is impaled, the wife's
arms occupying one position and the hus-
band's the other. If she becomes a
widow, the frame of her arms again as
sumes the form Of a diamond. symbolic
ing her unmarried state, while her arms
and the arms of her deceased husband re-
main impaled as formerly. A certain
dealer in stationery presents copy of
the rules of heraldry to each customer.

NEW YORK CITY.
1t Is the Ideal Home of the Rich and
Poor.

Poor.
The millionaire, like everybody else.
can find all he needs to find of life right
here in New York City. Here all
the best products of the world are
brought to his door. By going to this
part or that part of town he can see life
among many nations. All the best con-
tributions of talent, skill and genius, in
art, science and literature, are here on
exhibition or for sale. Perhaps the great
est privilege IN the millionaire's life is
that he can see these things in all cities
and in all countries, as he wills.
But to lend, or TO spend, or to give in,
to make or TO borrow, or to get man s
own in, there is no city in the Union
quite the equal of the city of New York.
No city offers such splendid possibilities
alike to the strugglers, to those who have
secured foothold and to those at the top.
No city holds out so many advantages
and fields of activity to the young aud
am bilious, for the successful and wealthy.
TO some New York may be a rock
strewn with human wreckage, but to
quite as many 1t is safe-rlding harbor.
Genius, brains, talent and skill from all
parts OF the country pour into New York,
and so does wealth. New York is the
Mecca of millionaires. When the West
ern farmer becomes rich he packs up and
moves to New York, and the Southern
planter and the Down East manufacturer,
having amassed wealth, do likewise.
Even when he does not actually come to
New York, the man of wealth sends here
for delicacies and luxuries.
Yes, New York is particularly adapted
as a home for the rich; it is the best city
in which to spend and enjoy money, as
well as to make it of use to the aspiring
and worthy.-J. L. Oakley Rhinelander,
in Life as Found by Millonaires," in
Demorest's Magazine.

Chinamnn and Rluecoats.

Though the Chinese have been in this
country so long a tine and have become
so numerous, it is said of them that they
do not and cannot comprehend the status
of the police. The first idea is that a po-
liceman is sort of feudal ruler, with the
right to chop oft their heads or levy on
their property or do as he pleases with
them. They have no fault to find with
such rulers. They are used to them in
China. In fact as soon as they find out
that the police are mere watchmen on
salary set to guarding the public peace
they become disturbed and confused, and
end the strain on their minds by deciding
that the policemen must be soldiers, and
that is what nearly every Chinaman
thinks they are to-day.-N. Y. Sun.

made no pretense Of closing Que or

Tillman Serious Threat.

Governor Tillman, of South Caro-
lima, having secured Judge to his
liking on the bench of the highest
court in the state, has announced his
intention Of reopening the dispen
saries at once, and enforcing the ob.
noxious law by constables who will
fight to the death. He imagines that
in a legal contest he will have the
support of majority of the highest
court !; but it is the fierce civil strife
which his folly will probably preci-
pitate, in which the unfortunate peo-
pie of South Carolina are most imme-
diately and tremendously interested.
1t is not easy to believe that the
Governor is in his right mind. 1t is
possible to conceive of circumstances
under which dispensary law might
be enforced with benefit to a COM
munity in fact, a similar law is now
in force in Norway with apparent
benefit to the people, but there must
be acquiescence to make it's enforce.
mcnt either desirable or possible, and
the South Carolinians have demon
strated their hostility to the measure
in the plainest manner
No law can be properly enforced
where public sentiment generally
opposes it, and this is especially true
of laws of an exceptional character
which aim to interfere with the usual
course of business or the settled
habits of the people, and the Dis
pensary law of South Corolina does
this in an exaggerated form. The
people in several sections of the State
have shown such aversion to the law
that attempts to enforce it caused
bloody riots, which even the militia
could not subdue, and there is every
reason to believe that the reopening
of the dispenssries will lead to a
renewal Of the rioting and disorder,
and, perhaps, to the loss of many
lives. Under such circumstances a
prudent executive would hesitate,
even though convinced of the Con-
stitutionality and efficacy of the law,
and that there were no obstacles to
it's enforcement other than an adverse
public sentiment; but there are
special reasons for going slow in this

case, which are well known to the
Governor
The highest court in the state has
! decided that law embodying the
same principle as the dispensary law
is unconstitutional, and this has been
accepted by the people as an end to
the controversy, and by the state
officials, including the Governor.
as at least temporary settlement.
Having acceded to this decision,
there can be no excuse for reopening
this very ugly dispute at this time,
and it is severe reflection on the
new Judge for the Governor to
infer that he will join with another
Judge and reverse the decision The
State is in the midst of one of the
bitterest campaigns on record, in
which TilIman is avowedlya a candidate
for the Senate. This senatorial issue
has completely overshadowed every
other, and has stirred up all the bad
blood in South Carolina. Such 8
radical step as the reopening of the
dispensaries will inevitably be regard.
ed ss an attempt by rillman to
advance his political fortunes, and
thus fuel will be added to the flames
which hatred of the dispensaries has
caused Before the end is reached
South Carolina may be involved in a
bloody strife, compared with which
the recent deadly riots were mere
child's play-Baltimore American.
