Stretch os Water Wherein Are Mingled
Precious Things OF lay and Night.
About Sorrento also there Is some
thing of a Neapositan favor in the air.
The Seapolitan small boy is half mon
key, half comedian and oil thief, and
hero as elsewhere the boy is father to
the man. In Sorrento there is the mu-
nicipai band, more memorable in Italy
than dea III itself; there are little COM
panies Of men and women who dance
the ta1ante!la in costume ON the ter
races of the hotels. and sing vulgar
songs, which the foreigner takes for
national airs.
There are not, indeed, SO many leg
gars as III Naples itself and its ueigh-
borl:ooa, but the perpetual attempt TO
extract small coin from the visitor Oc-
cup!es the sole and undivided attention
Of at least one portion OF the popula-
ticn. Here, as In Naples, the guide
guides not. but chatters, butchering
what lie supposes to be The foreigners
languague in order to make himself
holiday. Here, as elsewhere, the lively
donkey boy twists the patient ass tail,
ultimately requests you to dismcunt at
the steep places, and gets on himself.
Here, as IN southern Italy, the small
receptions OF a very poor and not very
clever people bring q smile to the keen
but often good .natured northerner's
face.
All this l might describe at endless
length had it not been done so often,
and in one Or two instance so we'll
There it all is, more CT less lovely as to
its surroundings, more or less modern
! in its buildings, more or less civilized
by the people that move upon the
scene. And below it, and before it,
aud facing 1t. stretches the sea,
the eternal. ever-changing, eyer-abld-
ing sea. The splashcs Of human
| wrought color, nna. the deeper tones OF
manipulated oranG gardens, and olive
groves, and vines, are forever contrast
ed with Gods own palette, with that
broad water wherein are mingled the
precious things of day and night, the
maiden rose-mallow Of dawn, and the
gorgeous purple of Imperial evening
the gold of the sun and silver OF the
moon ana the precious stones OF the
stars all blending at last in the depths
of the great liquid sapphire OF that sea
which wise men of old believed to be
the source of all living things Marion

FASHIONS IN NAMES.
Neturn from "Fancy" Names to Anne"
"Jane" and MARTHA"

Neturn from "Fancy" Names to Anne
"Jane" and Martha"
People are growing tired of the
fancy names which have for some
time been popular, and are reverting to
''old-fashioned" ones such as Anne,
Jane, Martha, etc 1t is very great
pity to have any fashion in names, OF
which we can not have too much va
riety; and to describe any in particu-
lar as fancy names" is absurd,
since many of the prettiest
are Of really more ancient orr
gin than the homely ones quoted; and
far from circumscribing our choice,
the increase Of population makes it
most desirable to revive or invent
more.
When large family circle of brothers
and sisters and cousins marry, it often
happens that several Of the new mem
bers have the same name, and it is most
tiresome having to explain. every time
we alude to them, whether we mean
this or that Edith or Ethel.
With a little thought numbers OF
pleasant sounding words might be
found which would serve admirably
for appellations and tend to lessen the
existing confusion.-Lady's Pictorial
