was created with a beard, which was
bushy rather than flowing.
The ancient Hebrews esteemed the
beard as a sacred thing, and held
it TO be a sign Of a perfect man, while
the Egyptians, who had held them cap
tives for SO long, were universally
clean-shaVed.
To touch rudely the beard of an ORR
entail is to assail violently his personal
dignity.
Time was when to put your hand on
your own beard and swear by it was
the most solemn oath that could be
taken.
Although the old Egyptians did not
ordinarily wear boards, yet on feast
days they donned false ones, and their
male deities were almost always repre-
scented with boards.
Alexander the Great abolished boards
among his soldiers because they fur
nished handles for the enemy TO lay

at all stringent in the minutiae of Off
cial etiquette; he sometimes gives one
the impression that he will be glad
when the formal part of the ceremony
is over. He is often seen walking in
the parks or on the sidewalks of his
Capital, and in the seclusion of his
garden rejoices in the use of an Amer
lean bicycle, which no Interpretation OF
royal license would permit him to ride
upon the highways. He is, however, a
rigid disciplinarian, and his children
have been brought UP to feel the full
force of the authority of the Teutonio

THE PRECIOUS GIRDLE.
With Notes of Other ratters of Inter-
est to the Fair.

The most expensive method OF smart
ening a plain velvet gown is to wear
with it one of the new girdles of pre-
cious metals. The girdle is no relative
Of the belt, but is used in a manner al
together different It is formed of
plates an inch wide and an inch and a
half long, linked together with rings.
The latest fancy is to have one of an
tique book clasps, curiously worked by
the gold or silversmith If the clasps
have been taken from some ancient
missal they probably show some tiny
scene or figure from Scriptural author
tiles Of the lives of the saints. In one
or two cases a date is found on the re-
verse of the clasp. OF course, these
subjects can be copied by a clever
worker in metals, and the desirable look
of antiquity can be given n a way that
makes it difficult to detect an original
antique from adrOit imitation. The
girdle chain is intended to be tackled
through the rings, in the middle of the
back, at the bodice, as far as possible
below the waist line. On no account
must it be at the waist. The girdle is
long enough to pass over the shoulders.
1t does not unclasp, but it may be said
to terminate with a bon bonniere OF
pomander box, which hangs far below
the waist, in front. The general effect
produced is Of the girdle worn by gen
erations of stage Marguerites. 1t must
look as If it We're about to fall off, but

COLD, QUICK AND SUDDEN.

That's a good drop. l don't know
whether she dropped more than that OF
not, for we didn't carry thermometers

have any extreme cold weather down
there, but when a blue norther does
come up it comes so quickly that we
feel it more than you fellows do. Some
times, though, these whizzers do the
country good. They blow away ma

None whatever" said the sheep man
It's short story, and there amt any
thing remarkable about it, There was

lake, and I'd paddle along slow in the

water was at least twenty feet deep
where l was, and I was certain 1 was
gone for good.

Don't WORRY.

DR. Anna Robertson Brown, speaking
in Philadelphia recently to a branch
of the Association of Collegiate Alum
nae, said, upon the topic What Is
Worth While?" I'VE may drop pre-
tense. Whatever we really are let us
be that in all fearlessness. Whatever
we are not, that let us cease striving
to seem to be. If we can rid ourselves
of all untruth of word, manner, mode
OF life, and thinking, we shall rid our
lives of much rubbish, restlessness and
fear. We may drop worry. The serene
soul is strong. Worry is an infirmity,
a spiritual sightedness, a fumbling
way of looking at things and of mag
nifyins their value. True spiritual Wis
ion sweeps the universe and sees things
in their right proportion"

MY THOUGHT-AND HERSs

The gray of the sea and the gray of the
sky,
glimpse of the moon like a half-closed
eye;
The CLEAN on the waves and the lights on

A thrill in my heart-and my sweetheart
hand.
She turned from the sea with a womans
grace,
And the light fell soft on her upturned
face,
And l thought of the floodtide of infinite
bliss
That would flow to my soul with a single
kiss.
But my sweetheart is shy, so I dared not

For the boon, so bravely l wore the mask;
But into her face there came a flame
