1t might be thought that the subject Of
the following description could dwell only
in some ones fancy, but it is reliably stat
ed that she lives in London suburb. She
has, it appears, parlor maid, housemaid
and IA cook, each of whom has a special
serving woman to wait on her. These
three subservants do not live in the house,
but come punotually every morning at
o'clock to prepare an early meal for the
fortunate domestics They carry this meal
to the rooms of the cook, the housemaid
and the parlor maid, and after giving it to
them on neat little trays proceed to make
the kitchen and servants hall ready for
their three mistresses.
But even the servants are not quite SO
much pampered as the pet animals of the
house. A favorite dog lately deceased,
was taught to refuse any midday meal ex-
cept fresh roast chicken. When his dog
ships health began to fail, his fond mis-
tress had her bed made on the floor so
that she could attend to his wants. When
he died, he was buried in shroud of pale
blue satin and silver covered with white
flowers, and in his memory every one in
the house. even the serving women, re-
ceivcd n pin set with precious stones. A
large family Of cats resides in the garden
at the back of the house, where they live
luxurious lives, daily receiving all the
daintics of the season.-New York Sun.

mercial prosperity. II the old were as
pleasing as the now, many factories would
go out of business, importers would not
go to the trouble and expense of import
ing goods for which there was no demand,
and one by one industries that employ
thousands upon thousands of persons
would languish and die.
This thing which we call fashion de-
mands novelty and variety, and to meet
its requirements manufactures and trade
arc ever kept active. Within reasonable
limits, therefore, fashion, ms we now use
the term, means business prosperity and
gainful occupations to the many.
Buttons continue To form an expensive
and highly decorative article Of dress.
They are worn In both largo and small
sizes. Mother Of pearl and silver in COM
bination are much liked, and paste and
jeweled buttons adorn evening and full
dress bodices.
1t is now the fashion at dinner parties
in Paris to distribute to each gentleman
guest little before dinner is announced n
card bearing the name Of the lady to whom
he is to offer his arm.
Long wraps for travelling and short
capes for general seaside and country wear
are made of lightweight plaid cloaking In
bright and harmonious tints. These are
serviceable and fashionable and one Of the
| most practical styles Of the season.
An illustration is given Of a most effect
| i've tbeater bodice. 1t Is Of Louis Quinze
broche silk, lowered with roses and leaves.
The body Of the bodice is rather full and
| is covered back and front with embroider-
| cd tulle, gathered at the waist and shout
ders and framed by bretelles of ribbon
that terminate n bows at the shoulders
| set on chou Of lace. The belt is OF rib
bon, the collar covered with lace and trim
| med with ribbon bow at the back. The
| half length sleeves are slightly draped and
| terminate in q frill of lace.

lars and cuffs are embroidered, trimmed
with lace or insertion or simply hem

The germ of the fixed bayonet, the dou-
BILE barreled gum the seven chambcred re-
volver and the mitrailleuso may be discov-
cred in duplex weapon exhibited in the
japanese collection at the Academy of the
Fine Arts. This is an ancient sword, with
hilt contrived to conceal a dagger-a
combination plainly of great advantage be-
fore the introduction of firearms. In the
hand Of man suddenly attacked by an
enemy too near to permit the drawing Of
the sword, the dagger could be brought
into play swiftly and effectively. Probably
the nearest approach to this REINFORCED
weapon among European nations was the
left handed basket hilted dagger Of the
Venetians, held in reserve when the sword
was in the right hand, specimens of which
may be seen in collections Of bric-a brac
in this city.-Philadelphi Record.

The Cabala, or Kabbala, was the oral law
of the ancient Jews, which for thousands
of years was delivered from father to son
by word of mouth only. The rabbinical
tradition is to the effect that 1t was first
given to Adam by an angel. From Adam
it passed to Shem, and from Shem to
Abraham, and from the latter to the whole
line of patriarchs. Some of the ancient
writer's have produced proof to show that
the Cabala was not SO much of law as
has been claimed, but was simply a super
stition concerning the mythical properties
of certain combinations of letters and
words.-St. Louis Republic

ence that was as unique as 1t was pleasant
She was playing in southern town and
accepted an invitation to attend recep-
ton. Her hostess urged her To be sure to
keep the engagement, because an old
gentleman is to be there who was present
at your first performance ON any stage and
remembers 1t distinctly, though he was
only years old ut the time" She refused
to tell his name, and Mrs. Drew says she
thought of nothing else for three days,
even dreaming Of tho old gentleman.
Finally the day came, and at the door of
the house Mrs. Drew encountered her old
friend, Joseph Jefferson, who said to her;
Just fancy l am to meet an old lady here
today who saw me act the first time l ever
appeared on the stage. I'm quite excited
over it." When they got inside, the host
ess confessed that she had tried her little
ruse in order to get both the artists to at
