Revival of an Old Fashion.

The fashion of wearing long chains

The chains should be strong enough to
hold the watch tucked into the belt

These chains are supposed to be fol

Eccentric Generosity.

Nicholas Longworth, one of the
wealthiest citizens of Cincinnati Few
years ago. was noted for his eccentric
charities. Those whom others refused
TO help found a friend in him. De
cent paupers will always find plenty
to help Them" he would say, "but nc
one cares for the devils poor, Ey'
erybody condemns them, SO must turn
to and help Them
Mr.. Longworth was plain and care
less In his dress, often looking more
like a beggar than a millionaire. In
deed, 1t afforded him no little amuse'
ment to be taken for mendicaht, as
he several times was in the course of
his life.
One cold winter evening n poor man
called at the house very thinly clad,
and Mrs. Longworth improved the OPP
portunity to suggest to her husband
that he should give away a certain
Hard Times" overcoat which she had
grown tired of seeing him wear. He
readily assented. and Mrs. Longworth,
much pleased that the objectionable
garment was ont Of the way, placed
a fine broadcloth one upon the rack,
where he would easily find 1t In the
morning.
But Mr.. Longworth went off to bust
ness without it, and came home nj
noon, greatly to his wlfe's chagrin,
wearing a new coat OF the Hard
Times variety
AT another time Mr.. Longworth was
accosted by deserving beggar at the
entrance to his warehouse.
What do you need most?" Mr.. Long
worth asked.
"A pair of shoes" was the reply.
"Ah, yes, | see, said the millionaire,
with quick glance at the mans feet.
He kicked off his right shoe-his shoe
strings We're seldom tied-and said,
Try that on, my man. How does 1t
fit?"
''Illigant, yer honor"
Then try that one. too" said Mr..
Longworth, as he kicked off the other
shoe "How will they do?'
'1lllgant, yer honor! illigant. May
many blessing
Well well, go now" said the mer-
chant, "that'll do" and then, calling a
boy, he sent him to the house to ask
Mrs Longworth for another pair of
shoes.
The boy soon returned.
Mrs. Longworth says there isn't a
pair of shoes left in the house." said
the lad, you've give 'em all away"
"All right" laughed Mr.. Longworth.

With what strange, bright smile in thy
sweet eyes brown,
And what wondrous smile on thy lips
n-quiver.
What unseen hand at thy frail barque's
prov
Is guiding thee swiftly adown the
stream?
All! wake at our bidding, we pray thee,
now,
Arouse from thy languor of sleep and
dreaml
We fain would stay thee, would clasp thy
hand.
Too passing sweet is that tender smilel,
But no. Thou wavest farewell TO land,
And tioatest farther away the while;
Farther away as the night comes on.
Farther and farther with break of day
Already thy craft from our sight has gone,
Has slipped from its mornings and sailed
away.
The sunlight wooes thee, but all in vain,
The wild birds call thee. but no reply.
Thou shalt wake to their music no more
again,
Nor bask in the sunlight; sweet friend,
gooJ-by!
A vision Of sunlight blinds our sight,
We feel its glory ms here we stand,
For us the voyage is toward the light,
For thee the shores of the unknown
land.

SOCIAL SIDE OF WASHINGTON.

" YASHINGTON. on its social
wv cial side, is more like Euro
pean than an American city.
1t does not draw all sorts and condi-
tons of people to it. as does New York
The atmosphere is bad for both art ana
literature, because society, which at
present is the dominating influence,
gives them too many dinners and asks
them to too many balls. These invita-
tons are not to meet the sons ana
daughters of retired trades people, VINO,
having had one generation of money,
are pleasant and presentable enough,
1 but who are nothing and nobody. They
are, rather, to meet men and women or
world wide celebrity, who have helped
to make history or who are making 1t
now, and who are brought together
from the ends of the earth for these
months. Money in vast quantities was
practically unknown in Washington I'M
til the advent of the Arthur admins
tration brought great number of rich
New orkers to it, and since then 1t
has become the chosen winter home
of the mammon of unrighteousness.
Especially is it a great place for rich
widows with daughters-that peculiar
type of American women who as soon
as paterfamilias is comfortably tuck
ed away under the sod fly to Europe,
spend years wandering about like a
social bedoulns then are seized with
a romantic form of homesickness, but
they cannot stand their former homes,
and so find Washington handy stop
gap between the former abode and the
European mode Of living. So they go
there, buy fine house, get In with the
diplomatic corps, and the thing is done.
And Washington. which processes a
lofty scorn for trade and rnthleSsly
shuts the doors of society in the face
of all Washington brokers, insurance
agents, real estate people, and, in short
trade in every form except banking
welcomes with open arms the retired
trades people from anywhere on the
face of the globe, Washington Is the
dinner place of this continent. During
the season four weeks ahead is a very
good time TO send out invitations If you
really wish to get desirable guests to-
gether. Two weeks notice is far too
short. The dinners are very elegant,
but not necessarily expensive The
great question always is, "Who is to
be thereT and If that be answered
satisfactorily the rest matters nothing.
