HOBBIES OF FAMOUS PERSONS.

9ussr Wh1ns Of Minds 0lven to Com
tsnpisting Import..t Matters. !
A very peculiar hobby was that of an
I'D woman who had been employed at
court in the capacity of nurse. and who
had most extensive collection Of
pieces Of wedding cake. The cakes TO
which the fragments belonged had been
sut at the marriages Of the highest in;
the land. The place of honor was
given to portion Of Queen victoria'sl
wedding cake. and nearly every royal
accession Of william ". was repre-
sented In this curious collection. Lord
estersham, q noted dandy in his day.
had hobby for walking sticks. and
also for various kinds Of tea and snutf.
All round his sitting room were shelves.
those upon one side laden with canis-
ters of souchong. Bohea. Congou, Pekee.
Russian, and other varieties of tea.
The shelves opposite were decorated
with handsome Jars, containing every
kind Of snuff. while snuff-boxes lay
here, there, and everywhere. Lord
Petersham prided himself upon possess
Ing the most magnificent array Of
boxes to be found in Europe. and was
supposed to have fresh box for every
day In the year. When some one adj
mired q beautiful old light-blue Sevres
box he was using. he lisped out. "Yes.
1t is a nice summer box, but would not
do for winter wear"
Count Henry Won Bruhl. a famous
German diplomatist, busted himself in
collecting boots. shoes, slippers. and
wigs Of all shapes. sizes. and fashions.
This curious hobby was rivaled by
that Of late King Of Bavaria, whose
collection Of hats was unique. A King
Of Wurtemburg boasted the possession
of above 5000 copies of the Bible: and
q nicotine-loving American reveled in
. treasury Of pipes. Of which he could
count 365 speciments In meerschaum,
brier. glass, china. and clay. The Duke
Of Sussex. brother OF King George H..
had q pair Of hobbies that were wide as
the poles asunder. He was an tnde-
fatigable collector of Bibles and Of
cigars. Pope Plus TX. was q collector
Of slippers. He always had twenty
four pairs In his wardrobe. made OF red
cloth embroidered with gold, and orna-
mented with . solid gold cross. his
chamberlain being strictly enjoined not
to part with single pair. however well
worn they might be. to any Of the many
devout applicants for them. Wigs and
walking sticks were the especial vani-
ties Of Mr.. William Evans. some time
principal clerk in the prothonotary'i
once for Anglesea, Carnarvon. and
Merioneth, and 70 highly did he value
them that he bequeathed one Of each
to three different maiden ladies. fol

z n order to expedite the erection
Il Of the new building which we
are to occupy we consented to give
up half Of our present store room
to Mr.. e. c. Esse. The change has
necessarily crowded us good deal
and compelled us to pack away our
surplus stock. But we want it dis
tinctly understood that we have
enough Of everything we handle
right at hand to accommodate our
customers as fully and as promptly
as ever.
Mr. .Esse has a neat, clean stock and
we have thoroughly renovated our
own so that we can show you as
pleasant a room and supply your
wants as satisfactorily as ever.
The point we want to particularly
impress on your mind is the mere
fact that we are crowded a little is
not going to keep us from doing
business. We want your trade now
Just as much as we did before, and
we guarantee you just as good
satisfaction.
In few weeks we will be in our new
room, built and fitted up especially for us,
where we will be able to show you as neat
a store and as clean and complete stock
as ever you saw. But in the mean time re-
member that we are doing business at the

In addition to the regular business of

lowed and the morning meeting was
brought to close with benediction by
Rev. DR.. Bateman.
Rev. J. PrOude conducted the after
noon devotional exercises. Two es-
