cup are treated with a purple, made by
mixing deep purple and deep blue. The
dots and scrolls are raised gold. The
paste for these must be mixed and ap.
piled, and the pieces are then ready fol-
their first firing.
When this is done the flowers should
be retouched, the sharp contrasts OF
shade being added which have already
been mentioned as a feature of the
Dresden ware. The roses should be
shaded with deep purple in the centers
and the leaves with brown green laid
on in sharp touches. The centers of the
purple flowers should also be strength.

little with the deep purple.

MOHAMMED'S COAT.
Sacred Relic to Which the Sultan
Annually Pays His Devotion.


Annually Pays His Devotion.
No more striking illustration of the
alarming condition of affairs that pre-
vail just now at Constantinople could be
afforded them the fact that the sultan
should have considered it necessary to
proceed by water, instead of by land,
from his residence at the Yildiz Kiosk
TO the old seraglio for the purpose of
paying his annual devotion to the holy
coat of Mohammed, which is preserved
in a great box in the innermost sane
tuary of the imperial treasury. The ex-
tent to which this garment is venerated
by all believers may be estimated by
the fact that the principal and most
highly cherished title of the sultan is
that of guardian Of the holy mantle"
This robe, which it Is needless to say
is green, was brought TO Constantine
pie by Sultan Selim along with the keys
Of the holy cities of Medina and Mecca,
from Cairo, where they had been pre-
served until that time in the keeping of
the caliphs.
This worship of the mantle by the
bulldu Tic anu
tant religious function which the Turk
ish ruler is called upon to perform
throughout the year, and, as a general
rule, his majesty's progress from the
Yildiz Kiosk to the Sublime Porte is
marked by magnificent display of
troops four or five ranks deep, who line
the entire route on either side.
This year, for the first time since his
accession to the throne more than 20
years ago, the sultan, through dread of
assassination, has abandoned the Gus
tomury procession by land, and has
gone by water instead, furtively and al
most by stealth, the public being led
till the last moment to believe by the
military display that the sultan was
about to proceed to the old seraglio in
the usual nanner.-Chicago Record.

FrOcks for Small Girls.

at is no longer considered necessary"
writes Emma NJ. Hooper, in the Ladies'
Home Journal, "to set aside certain
fabrics for little girls wear, as nova
days they wear everything that their
mothers do, except real lace and jewels.
Care is taken, however, to use only
small-patterned materials for their
frocks. In colors, white is always in
good taste, also baby blue and pink, and
this spring green is very much in vogue,
as well as golden brown, red, French
and navy blue, pearl gray and pale yell
low. Black is used only as trimming
in velvet ribbon or mohair braid. Satin
and tatfeta ribbons are used as trim
mings, also white, yellowish and linen
colored embroideries. Valenciennes
and net top laces are used in white and
butter sha lies with insertion to match"

GERMAN COURT BALLS.
| The Waltz Ii still Danced at the
| Court of Stuttgart.

A few years ago the minuet and the
gavotte were the special dances of the
Berlin court, the kaiser himself having
taken a special fancy to them. Some
how they did not find much favor in so
ciety, as young people prefer waltzing,
and, after all, the old-fashioned dances,
like good many old-fashioned habits,
are all very well when the actors are
dressed in the clothes of the period and
resemble in mode of thought and car
riage of body their great-grandparents.
But few young people are like their
forefathers- There was some reason for
the introduction of fanciful and pic
turesque dance ait the grand festivals of
the imperial court, especially as very
special rules prevailed there. 1t is well
known that the late Kaiserin Augusta
strongly objected to Waiting, and so
does the court of Berlin. The conse-
quence is that kind of gallop was in
vented for Berlin-a two-timed move
ment, danced to the music of the waltz,
but not at all resembling the old deux-
temps waltz. In Mecklenburg the waltz
is never danced at all at court, the rea-
son for this being, as it is said, that the
Grand Duchess Marie does not like dane
ing. Moreover, almost everywhere at
German courts the slow waltz was
looked down upon as bad style. Good
style depends upon the leaders of fash
ion, and so the slow waltz has been pro-
nounced as the correct kind to be
danced at the court of Stuttgart this
winter. Both the queen and her step
daughter are very fond of waltzing;
her majesty has ordered that the waltz
is to be danced slowly at the court balls
now, as is the custom in Vienna.-Lon-

DIAMONDS OF GoLcoNDA.
Marco POlO's Account OF Them Reads
Like One of Sinbad,s Tales

Marco POlO's Account OF Them Reads
Like One of Sinbad's Tales.
1t is in this kingdom that diamonds
are got; and will tell you how. There
are certain lofty mountains in those
parts; and when the winter rains fall,
which are very heavy, the waters come
roaring down the mountains in great
torrents. When the rains are over, and
the waters from the mountains have
ceased to flow. they search the beds
of the torrents and find plenty of dia-
monds. In summer also there are plen-
ty to be found in the mountains, but
the heat of the sun is so great that it
is scarcely possible to go thither, nor
is there then drop of water to be
found. Moreover, in those mountains
great serpents are rife to marvellous
degree, besides other vermin. and this
owing to the great heat. The serpents
are also the most venomous in exist
ence, SO that anyone going there runs
fearful peril; for many have been de-
stroyed by these evil reptiles.
Now among these mountains there
are certain great and deep valleys, to
the bottom of which there is no ac-
cess. Wherefore the men who go in
search of the diamonds take with them
pieces of flesh, as lean as they can get,
and these they cast into the bottom of
the valley. Now there are numbers Of
white eagles that haunt these noun
tains and feed upon the serpents. When
the eagles see the meat thrown down,
they pounce upon it, and carry it up
some rocky hilltop, where they begin
to rend it. But there are men on the
watch, and as soon as they see that
the eagles have settled, they raise a
loud shouting to drive them away.
And when the eagles are thus fright
ened away the men recover the pieces
of meat, and find them full of diamonds
which have stuck to the meat down
in the bottom. For the abundance of
diamonds down there in the depths of
the valley is astonishing, but nobody
can get down; and if one could. it would
be only to be at once devoured by the
Aerpents which are SO rife there.
There is another way of getting the
diamonds. The people go to the nests
Of those white eagles, of which there
are many, and find plenty of diamonds
which the birds have carried off with
the meat that was cast into the valleys.
And when the eagles themselves are
taken diamonds are found in their
stomachS.
So now have told you three different
ways in which these stones are found.
No other country but this kingdom of
Mutfili produces them, but there they
are found both abundantly and of large
size. Those that are brought to our
part of the world are only the refuse,
as it were, Of the finer and larger
stones. For the Hover of the diamonds
and other large gems, as well as the
largest pearls, are all carried to the
great khan and other kings and princes
of those regions; in truth, they pos
sess all the great treasures of the world.

How tn Curl Feathers.

Feathers may easily be curled, if only
little time and care be devoted to
them. A simple process is as follows:
Have a large kettle with steam pouring
out of the spout. Hold the feathers
in this steam for few moments, and
then with blunt knife preferably a
metal paper cutter) curl each separate
plume, and when complete, hold the
feather in front of the fire to keep the
stiffness in. Professional dressers do
little else, but, of course, they are more
expert than a mere amateur.

WOMAN AND HOME.
ALL THE RAGE NOW.


The Charming Dresden Style Of Deco
ration for China.
The Dresden style of decoration for
china is always in favor, and no one who
attempts to paint upon china at the
present time can afford to be ignorant
of its characteristic features. The
painting is always done upon the white
ware, as the tinted grounds are never
used for Dresden. The flowers, figures
and other devices employed are not out
lined in any way, as is done in all other
styles of china painting. Pure, bright
colors are employed, quite in contrast
to the soft, mellow tones sought in Roy
al Worcester. The shading Of the flow
ers is intense and sharp, and vivid con-
trasts of color are often seen.
Gold scrollwork is largely employed,
often in relief, and sometimes plain
panel of dark color is outlined between
the bits of decoration.
There is for sale in the art stores q
complete line of Dresden colors in
tended for this style of decoration ex-
clusively, but unless speciality is made
of this line of work, the La Croix colors
may be used with entirely satisfactory
results. Care must be taken, however,
in selecting the colors to be used, choos-
ing those only which are intense and
pure in tone, and avoiding all the soft
and ''new" shades.
The gold work, both plain and raised,
is done as in other styles of decoration
already described. The paints are pre-
pared for use in the same manner, but
there is no soft blending in tones in
shading, and, as already stated, no out
line of color is employed.
The design shown herewith is good
example of the Dresden style of decora-
ton. 1t is desirable for dinner or tea
cups and saucers.
To paint this in La Croix colors, first
tint the plain panels a bright yellow,
using silver yellow for the purpose.
Next draw the flower sprays upon the
plain white china. and paint them with
the local colors, using carmine No.
rather thin for the roses, and leaving the
white china itself for the highest lights.
The leaves are of apple-green, the small
flowers of deep blue green. The half

Discovery OF Platinum.

Platinum was first discovered early
in the sixteenth century in Spanish
mine of South America, from which
source it receives it's name, "platina del
Pinto"-little silver from the River Pin
to. 1t is the rarest and most peculiar
of metals In contradistinction to
aluminium, the lightest, it is the
heaviest of metals. 1t is twice as heavy
as silver and nearly three times heavier
than cast iron. Platinum is almost as
soft as copper and as ductile as gold. 1t
can be rolled into sheets so thin that
1000 of them piled on top of each other
would not exceed an inch in height. The
average imports of platinum to this
country are valued at nearly 100000
q year.-N. Y. Herald.

White and Gold Dinner.

White and gold china enables one to
set lovely table for white and gold
tea or white and gold dinner, using
gold-colored flowers and gold-colored
ribbons for decorations. The ices may
be yellow, the cake icings and trim
mings may be of the same hue, and tall
lamps, with yellow shades, will throw
soft, golden light over the festive
scene. Beautiful tea and dinner gowns
are made in white and gold, and if the
hostess has golden hair and a pure
white complexion she will look like a
fairy princess at a magic banquet.

DOUBLE LOOP RING.

fold rings has a diamond in one ring
and a ruby in the other. Price noa
mentioned. ..
The rings when off look like two hoops
of wire. Upon the hand they are very
becoming. They hold their place well,
not permitting the stones to become
turned inside.
Wearing this ring with glove is
troublesome. But as an engagement
ring it is very fine. The duality idea is
easily told, and, as practical point, it
may be mentioned that such ring can
not easily slip off.-St. Louis Globe
