A Few Suggestions.

"A Few SuSSebkAOhbs
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
As there are great many church going
people in New Haven and vicinity, and as
some of them do not fully understand what
rights they have, we beg leave to offer
few suggestions for their benefit. Do not
forget that as soon as the preacher begins
his sermon 1t is a very good time to whis-
per to your companion and tell him or her
what you have been doing for few days
past, and talk over plans for the future.
This is important, for if you should wait
until the service is concluded You might
forget some of the detailR, and what mis-
fortune it would prove to bel OF course 1t
may disturb the people who are sitting in
the next seat in front of you, but never
mind that, for you are entitled to the seat
that you occupy, and this is free country
and it is your privilege to do as you please
regardless of the comfort Of otters.
If your whispering becomes an intolsr-
able nuisance to them, 80 that they look
around and thus give you . broad hint
concerning 1t, do not desist, but rather
keep right on with 1t, for If they cannot
enjoy the sermon they can 60 homo At

SITUATIONS WANTED.


Times are hard in Europe. So hard that
noblemen who can't or won't work are
willing to sell themselves to American
heiresfes or to any body else who will trade
with them. The following advertisement

''The owner of an historical name, and
belonging to a royal family, wishes, in
consequence of pecuniary losses, to place
his name at the disposal of joint stock

cial or financial enterprise, in return
for adequate remuneration" Another
impeeunious aristocrat thus makes
his plea: ga noblemau, married to
lady who is member of the
royal family, desires to meet with
an appointment for himself and wife
in one and the same house. He would
prefer the post of manager of some estate
or of manufacturing concern, though the
couple would not object to the situation of
tutor and governess in German family"
Still third is this, which appears in the
Figaro almost daily: "a young, hand

houses, and possessing no debts, desires
to marry a lady of very good personal ap-

Mr.. Livermore's Companion in a
Chance Journey Down Stream.
From the Philadelphia Times
MILES CITY, Mont, Feb. IA small
farmer and ranchman namei Livermore,
who owns place in the southeast corner
of the state, between the Beaver and the
Box Elder rivers, came into town recently,
considerably used up by a novel adventure
with grizzly bear in which he was en-
gagged a day or two ago. LivermoIe,
whose wife died last year. lives all alone in
the valley of the two rivers mentioned,
and had built himself small cabin on the
banks of the Box Elder near its junction
with the Little Missouri.
The recsnt snows had filled the latter
stream to overaowing, and the water
backed up and spread out over the low
places, and one night last week reached
Livermore's cabin. Having NO founds-
ton, 1t foated off lightly on the strong
current, and when the farmer swoke it was
to find himself racing down the river at q
rapid rate. But tine timbers of the little
hut held Arm, and the owner felt no par

Contrary to general belief. Worth, the
man milliner of Paris, is not Frenchman,
having been born and educated in Eng
land. He went to Paris early in life and
soon engaged in the business which has
made him famous. Every dress sent out
from his establishment is photographer.
Nr. Worth's two sons are associated with
him In business. One devotes himsef en-
tirely to the financial interests, while the
other, who inhsrits his fathers talent in
the way of designing and arranging
dresses, confines himself exclusively to the
artistic end of the establishment.
The great wall of China WAS recently
measured by Mr.. Unthank, an American
engineer engaged in the survey Of q Chi
nese railroad. His measurement gave the
height eighteen feet. Every few hundred
yards there is q tower twenty Ave feet
high. The foundation of the wall Is of
solid granite. For 1900 miles the wall
goes over plains and mountains, every foot
of the foundation being of solid granite
and the rest of the structure solid masonry.
In some places the wall Is built up against
the bank, or crosses q prscipioe where
there is sheer descent Of 1000 feet.
There are said to be scores of dsrelicts at
present in the North Atlantic, many of
them in the direct paths of the steamers
plying between Great Britain and New

with hundred cans of dynamite, and if
some unfortunate ship comes into contact
with her, there may be a sudden explosion,
and another addition to the list of vessels
which have mysteriously disappeared. The
dynsmite-lsden craft was towed into the
harbor at Delaware breakwater recently,
but on Friday night broke from her moor
ings and drifted out to sea, when last

know how draughts abound directly you
have a handsome wrap. Cut out place

corner to this spot, and set on a collar
of deep, leaf like pieces embroidered in

the throat and down Cd the shoulders.
Along the cut edge of the shawl put
fringe of fine gold beading to give weight.
Throw one point over the shoulder and let
the other hang. The cloak will seem to
