THE PART OF A LEPER.
Ellen Terry Considering THIS Strange
Role In Play 10 Come Out Shortly.

Role In Play TO Come Out Shortly.
New York, Jan. 10.-Infinite variety is
one of the chief charms of Miss Ellen Terry.
An excellent authority says that in her
next great role she will play the part of
lcper, which does not sound attractive, but
Miss Terry does gracefully what no other
woman would dare attempt at all.
Now, it is sa i'd among her feminine friends
that when moved by the spirit her i'm
promptu gymnastics are wonderful and
amusing TO a degree. Though not n bit of
an athlete and not at all up to date In the
matter OF muscle culture, she has retained
always her wonderful fleXibility of body
and gracious suppleness OF limb. Undoubt-
edly had she never adopted tue dramatic
stage she could as easily have conquered
the public as a Cancer, and today she can
lightly as a kitten run across the stage
and bound onto a table or chair or bend
her body this way or that easily as a
child of seven.
1t was but few days ago she went
to call on a sister professional recover
ing from a long Illness Miss Terry was
asked upstairs into the sick woman's bed
room and she spent an hour cond ding
and tea slipping. The reviving friend fol-
lowed her visitor out into the upper hall
way, but there Miss Terry made her af-
fcctionate aiieus.
You must not think Of following me
below. my child,'' she insisted, gently.
Indeed" ;" with funny Iittle1 winkle grow
ing in her eyes, al am perfectly well able
TO see myself down, so good-by, good-byr'
Whereupon, with a soft Chuckle and n
warm haDdshake. this charming queen of
tragedy and comedy put one knee over the
top of the long inclined stair railing and
slid like a rocket, or u irrepressible school
boy. straight down into the hail below.
There she gave her skirts 4 shake, her
bonnet n few pats and let herself out
the front door smiling gaily at the speech

combinations would once have been consid-
cred preposterous. The truth OF the matter
is that both dressmakers and miiliners are
gradually realizing that there is, after all,
no guide like nature. She makes no mis-
takes, and the closer the dabblers in arti-
ficial color can come to her marvellous tricks
the better. All the sartorial tfnts this year
are taken straight from natures dyepot.
"There are geranium reds, petunia pinks,
leaf greens, heliotrope and amethyst pur-
pies and gold yellows. They are com
bined, too, In the way that nature com
bines them, way that runs counter to
all previous ideas upon the subject. but
which never fails OF q wonderfully salts

CYCLING cHAPERONAGE.

A New Occupation for Poor Gentie-
women.
A new occupation is looming up on the
impesamious woman's horizon. 1t is o
significant fact, says an English news
paper, that mothers who advertise for
governesses require a knowledge, upon
the instructress' part. OF cycling, in
order that she may accompany her young
charges when they so a-wheeiing. IL seems
likely thata new, reniuneraiive employment
may open up for women in the form of eye
ling chaperorag1.

tion OF dress, a skirt long enough TO reach
six OF seven inches below the knees, This be-
ing short enough to render pedaling easy.

are really decided about knickerbockers.

In a room whose atmosphere is heavy
with the perfume of luscious roses and

are received by 4 charming and distin-
gulshed woman, Mine. d'Hardelot, the
composer and confidential friend of the

A velvet gown for high occasions, and

OF fashion. A carriage may also be added
to the combination, for the velvet toilet Is
too fine to go pied, and 1t being heavy to

souvenirs of her brilliant career which
she has vcntured TO transport across the
ocean. Whenever she is in England she
always sings for the queen, who is very
fond of her, and never fails to present
Calve with some Jewel. Among them is
a beautiful brooch of pearls and dia-

Australia the Land of Paradox.

From the Seattle Intelllgencer.
Australia Is really the antipodes
of the remainder of the world In
all respects. Summer time comes
during the time of European
winter; the rising barometic in
dictates rain, and the falling the
opposite; the swans are all black
and the eagles white; the male
lays eggs and has a bill like a
duck; the native dogs never bark ;
the serpents have tails like fishes
and wings like bats; the pricSly
pear grows to be a tall tree, and the
poplars and oaks seldom grow
above five feet in height; the elm
has hairs in place Of feathers; the
birds are without song; the sun is
in the north at noon; the chief
rivers flow inland; the pear trees
grow a fruit that is beautiful to
look upon, but which, when ripe,
is as hard as though fashioned
from the wood of the tree itself ;
the leaves of the trees all stand
edgewise and cast no shadow; the
stone or pit of the cherry Is on the
outside, and must be cracked in
order to get at the meat; the opos-
sums fly like bats; the kingfisher
never catches fish, but lives on
fruit; the peas are poisonous; the
oaks bear no acorns; the chestnuts
are without burr, and in many in.
stances the trees are hollow, with
