Mr.. Emil Meyers portrait Of Presiden,
Whitman. which was presented to the Co.
lumbian University last week, is perhaps
the best thing the artist has ever done in
the line of portraiture. He is better known
to the public through his genre painting
which seems to be his true forte, though
his work in other directions shows no lack
OF versatility. DR.. Whitman's portrait,
which Is now in his private reception room,
is a athree-quarter-Iength view. He is sea ted
in a chair and holds a book in one hand,
keeping the place with his thumb. as
though he had just paused in his reading
for a moment. The small bust of Minerva
which is placed upon the table at his right
is a compliment delicately conveyed One

the cashier. ''The fellows up there

The bookkeeper yawned. The son OF

did not appeal to him as to the others.

Italy Jealous of Her Art.

The Italians have great reverence
for their art treasures. They love them
better than we do ours, and regard with
jealous eyes the secrets of their handi-
crafts. When the Council of Ten ruled
Venice it issued decree regarding the
art Of glassmaking. 1t runs:
"If workman carry his art beyond
the limits Of his country to the detri-
ment of the republic he shall be desired
to return. If he disobeys his nearest
relatives shall be imprisoned. II, in
spite of their Imprisonment, he remain
obstinate in his wish to live abroad,
an emissary shall be told off to killhim."
The decree finishes with the considerate
words: after the workman's death
his relatives shall be set at liberty"

LIGHT, FANTASTIC EFFECTS.
They Are the Ideal of this Embroidery
of the Coming Season.


The keynote to the coming seasons
decorations is lightness and brightness
combined. Everything is to be gay.
There is a subdued glitter about even
the richest ornament. Pillows, banner
cts, shades, screens, and all manner of
holders are etched out with spangles or
tinsel, and the designs applied to them,
either in embroidery or water-colors,
are sprightly and fanciful.
Paris sends the quaintest little can
die shades, with more width than
length and with zigzag bordering of
spangles, and a bright little French
scene, done in colors, for center piece.
Lamp shades, no matter how large or
cleverly ornamented, are starred with
iridescents, or they have inlaid work
about the edges that sparkles with gilt,
cut steel, or silver. Grotesque designs
are introduced in this way and the effect
is novel and bizarre.
A unique sofa cushion, newly exc
cuted, has trio of ballet girls on its
white satin surface. Instead of heavy,
painstaking embroidery, with set
stitches and miles of floss silk, this novel
style of work is done with dash and
originality. The figures of the dancers
are we'll drawn in the beginning. then
they are simply etched out in black.
The spangled gauze that forms the
triple layer of ballet skirt is genuine
black-spangled gauze applied to the
satin background. The low-cut bodices
of the dancers are outlined and filled in
with heavy-raised threads. The scar
let stockings are worked up-and-down
fashion, with long stitches that fill in
easily. The jaunty waists are spangled
also. What perhaps gives the most
natural touch to the figures is the elab-
orately arranged powdered hair, all
puffs and curls, cleverly produced with
knotted' stitch done in blond-colored,
lusterless silk. The faces of the ballet
dancers are, of course, left much to the
imagination, being merely outlined on
q fesh-colored surface, but the pose of
the red-stocl,inged figures is so life
like that the effect is spirited and pleas
ing. No visitor could remain in bad
humor long with those gay figures look
ing from the sofa cushions. One partic-
ular cushion was of thick white satin.
with dull red for the reverse side, and
a filling and bordering of the color of
the ballet stockings.
Another novel sofa cushion shows
three cats in black holding golf sticks in
their paws. Cats are for luck as all the
world knows, and these cats are etched
out and filled in with the same airy
grace that distinguishes the ballet
dancers. Other cats have tennis
but none of these designs is
worked according to the rules of en-
broidery. The figures are expected to
caper for season on these cushions
and wall banners and then only to
be relocated to obscurity.
The newest photograph frames show
q heavy band of gold tinsel drawn
across the top and tied in fat, prim
bow. These frames are made of straight
up-and-down stripes in gay colors after
the Louis XVI. style. They are more
novel than pretty.--N. Y. Sun.

began to grow weary after awhile and
sought to get even.
1t happened at a station about so
miles out from Chicago, when a man
weighing at least $50 pounds, and not
under six feet five inches in height,
came aboard the train.
IA few minutes later the young man
from New York, who had been out in
the smoking compartment, came back
to the young woman from Chicago.

"The big man?" she asked.

"He's just like everything else with

"But he is a Chicago man."
"Oh, no, he isn't" and the girl was
very confident.

"and I'll go and get the conductor. Will
his word settle it?'
"Of course" and he went after the
conductor, who had home in Chicago
himself.
When the conductor arrived on the
scene the girl took him in hand at

"You understand" she said, "that

To Cure Catarrh

Do not depend upon snuffs, inhalants or
other local applications. Catarrh is con-
stitutional disease, and can be successfully
treated only by means of a constitutional
remedy like Hoods Sarsaparilla, which
thoroughly purifes the blood and removes
the scrofulous taints which cause catarrh.
The great number of testimonials from
those who have been cured of catarrh by
Hoods Sarsaparilla prove the unequalled
power of this medicine to conquer this dis
ease. Iftroubled with catarsh give Hoods
fair trial at once.
