A very important duty with Mrs Aaude

specially fitted in chaperoning wealthy
young women, is her knowledge of litera-
ture and the literati of all countries. She
knows the bypaths of every city on the con

scenes of all George Eliot's books and to
the visions of Browning's poetry in most
instructive way. A young woman who

Mrs. Ole Bulls Home in Historic Old
Cam BRIDGE

Mrs. Ole Bulls Home in Historic Old
Cambridge.
Mrs. Ole Bull, the widow or the great
Norwegian violinist, has a beautiful home
In Cambridge, Mass. The house is built in
old colonial style, the principal room being
large music room. On the grand piano lie
Ole Bulls violins, which are worth small
fortune. The room is full OF beautiful and
interesting things collected in many wan
derlngs in various parts of the world. what
is called the Norwegian room is faithfully
copied from a library or living room of
the Morse country. The walls and ceilings
are of wood simply panelled. Over Il win
dow and opposite the door is n cxqusitely
carved wooden scroll with the beautiful
inscription from the Psalms: 'sThe Lord
guard Thy goings out and thy oonings in"
The counterpart OF this was found by Mrs.
Bulls brother in a PEASANTS cottage in
Norway. There are pictures OF Ole Bull
as a slender-waisted youth and as the sill
ver-haired musician, who had lost none OF
his youthful fire.
In one corner is q curious square Norwe-
gan fireplace built OF red tiles and extend
ing out into the room, instead of being re-
cessed into the chimney. The floor of this
fireplace is raised a foot or so above the
lloor or the room, and there is a sort of
roof a trifle higher than ones head. A
wrelght iron hob over the blaze holds
various quaint brass pots and kettles
and scattered about the room are all sorts
ofqueerly woven and gayly painted wooden
vessels used by the ScaBdinavians for milk
and beer Some of these are made in the
shape of animals and fowls. These and
the large wooden bread baskets are as in
geiious in construction and as crude and
brilliant in -oioring as though they had
beenmade by our North American Indians.
The most striking thing in the room

On d BICYCLE

That aGabsorbing problem OF the hour,
the wonlan's bicycle suit, is not yet solved.
To be convinced of this it is only necessary
to stroll along any thoro9ghfare frequented
by women bicyclists. Many are the at
tempts that have been made to solve the
problem, but 50 far all have failed Skirtec,
or bloomered, or knickerbockered. or what
ever she be. it is rare indeed to encounter
feminine figure that presents a graceful
appearance upon the bicycle
AT first blush. indeed, il would seem that
no woman with the fatal gift Of beauty
had taken TO the wheel but this conclusion
is almost wholly due to clothes, not to the
women. Comfort. al well as good looks
is stin an unknown quantity in woman's
bicycle eostume.
No matter how costly suit may be, OF
how carefully it may have been designed,
it is sure either TO flap too much or to be
worst of all. if ii is a skirt, it invariably
rides up." oh, wad some power the

Many women bicyclists recognize this
for themselves, however, Said one OF
them the other day:
Il know that / could ride better. and ]
know that / should he able to evolve a
decent cycling suit, could but see myself
upon a wheel. / should like to practice
riding before big mirror that would
show off every defect. both of my riding
and of my costume. And, if every woman
could hut do this. the solution of the clothes
problem would be near at haDd."-NeW

Mrs. Bull is still young woman, having
been married when scarcely more than a
child. She is gery accomplished, having first
won the attention OF her distinguished nus

and writes several languages, has remark
ably wei disciplined, cultivated mind, and
is deeply interestedin all plans for the better

slender perfecty-modeled hand being her
chief personal charms, but her delig ghiful ease
and grace of manner make one forget every
thing else. Though an American a native
OF Eau Claire Mich, she has a rather foreign
caste of features, and might easily be AIKEN

her affluent circumstances, she dresses very
plainly and with little regard for the latest

conspicuous in appearance. Despite diff

a NOTE OF WARNING.

The following careful editorial from the
HcrdlH and Torch, Hagerstown, is timely
and significant;
1t will he the duty Of the Maryland legis-
lature, which convenes the first Of January,
to elect United States senator to succeed
Mr.. Charles II. Gibson, of Talbot county.
on March t. 1897. Individual voters will
have no part to perform in the selection
except in so far as they may be able to i'm
press upon the minds of their represent
atives their views and sentiments regarding
the party is made up of the individual
sentiments of its constituents.
When the members of party all wholly
agree upon line of action united scnti-
mcnt is said to exist. Whencvera qucstion
arises which entails "A division of sentiment
the duty of a representative is not so plain.
1t might be truthfully stated that the
selection of a United States senator will
cause Il division of sentiment among the
people of the state. 1t can do no harm to
discuss fairly the different phases of ibis
question when such discussion is aimed at
no mans prospects. First of all the people
should trust to the intelligence and wisdom
of those who have been selected to perform
this duty If it were not for the Eastern
Shore law which is on the statute books
the matter would be more easily solved.
There is no doubt whatever that the public
sentiment would then, with unmstakahle
precision, point to the states choice The
senatorship is being discussed in all its
phases throughout the state, and senti-
ment found to prevail universally among
Democrats as well as Republicans, is that
the party must not repudiate its platform
by devoting its time to ii question which
bears wholly upon our national affairs,
while we, during the campaign, declared
that local issues were the only ones involved.
The people are going to hold the incoming
administration responsible for the fulfil
ment OF its promises and pledges, and they
already display tendency to criticise and
condemn any move which will cause the
real issues to be obstructed by any ques-
ton whatever
Let the members Of the coming legis-
lature act carefully, conservativelv and for
the best interests of the whole party, and
the people will not be slow to endorse their
action. Prevailing public sentiment is
usually a safe guide, and the represent
ative who has any regard for his future
cannot disregard it in his actions

Tours to the Golden Gate and Florida
via Pennsylvania Railroad.

That the public are quick to recognize the
advantages Of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Companys perfect personally-conductcdt tour
list system is eXempliiled by the annual increase
in the number Of participants in tours organ
lied under that system. Aside from this, the
growing desire of Americans to see the Won

advancing this healthy sentiment in favor of
travel.
