WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
Something About This World Famous Oh
English Church.

Something About This World Famous Old
English Church.
The architecture of Westminster abb
Boy dates back to remote period, but
long before any part of the present
GLORIOUS pile'' was in existence Sax
on church stood upon the same spot.
Many years before the conquest the
Saxon church was connected with a
monastic body Of the Benedictine order,
which gave the name Western monas-
terry, or Westminster, to It's place of
abode, to distinguish it from St. Paul's,
in London, which was known as East
Minister
Considered INTELLECTUALLY, the first
church here Of which we have any au-
thentio history was erected by Edward
the Confessor and oonsecrated on Holy
Innocents' day, 1865. The greater part
of the abbey was built by Henry III in
the style known as early English. The
west front, with its grandly beautiful
windows, belongs to the fifteenth cen
fury, as does also the completion of the
nave and the aisles The extreme length
of Westminster abbey is oil feet, the
width across the transepts is 203 feet
and the width across the aisles 70 feet;
the height of the roof is 102 feet.
The fortunes of the abbey have fol-
lowed and are closely interviewer with
those of the nation, and many, there
fore, are its historical associations
There the sovereigns of England have
been crowned ever since the conquest.
The coronation stone, brought from
Scotland by Edward I, may still be seen
under the coronation chair used by
Richard IL This chair has ever since
been occupied by English rulers during
the coronation ceremonies.
Within the walls of the abbey the
funerals of many crowned heads have
taken place, and sovereigns and mem
bers of royal families have graves and
tombs beneath its roof Oliver Crom-
well never wore a crown, but his re-
mains were deposited for time in
vault beneath Henry WIS chapel with
pomp never surpassed by that of royalty.
The south transept is known to the
world as the poets corner" because
there, sleeping their last sleep, are
Chaucer, Spenser, Ben Jonson, Cowley,
Dryden, Beaumont, Addison and Ten
nyson and near by are monuments to
Shakespeare, Milton, Isaac Watts, Gold
smith and johnson.
In the north transept are buried many
renowned statesmen. There lie Pitt,
Wilberforce, Fox, Peel, Canning and
Palmerston. Many eminent divines,
men of letters. generals, admirals and
other persons known to fame are buried
beneath the marble pavement or have
monuments by its pillars or on its his
toric WALL. -Philadelp Times.

CRYING AS A sAEETYvALvE
Scientific Declaration That ga Good Cry
Is Beneficial.

Scientific Declaration That ga Good Cry"
Is Beneficial.
The Hospital declares that the popu-
lar belief that "a good cry'' gives at
times salutary relief has good soien-
tific foundation. A writer on that sub
ject says:
"Crying is so commonly associated
with distress that mans natural in
stinct is to put stop to it as soon as
possible. We should not forget, how
ever, that it has its uses DIR. Harry
Campbell has recently shown how COM
pick are the phenomena involved in "a
good cry This does not consist merely
in the shedding of tears, but includes SO
general and widespread an action of the
muscles that the whole body may be con-
vulsed. In children also great change
takes place during crying in the manner
in which the respiration is carried on.
Explorations are prolonged sometimes
for as much as half minute and are in
terrupted by short inspirations. During
expiration the CLOTHS is contracted SO
that the intrapulmonary pressure rises
considerably, and there can be but little
doubt that it is the equal distribution Of
this increased air pressure throughout
the whole of the chest, leading to the
dilatation of portions of the lungs that
have become more or less collapsed, that
is the explanation Of the great benefit
which often results from crying in cases
of infantile bronchitis and of the large
discharge of bronchial mucus which so
often follows Children may become
very blue during the paroxysm, but the
deep respirations which succeed quickly
restore the circulation to better con-
dition than before in consequence of the
larger lung space rendered available.
In women the beneficial effect of good
cry is proverbial. In them also this is
partly due to the increased depth of
respiration and the improvement in the
often languid circulation thereby in
duced, but to large extent it is the re-
suit of the muscular exercise involved,
by which the general vascular tension,
and especially the blood pressure in the
brain, are much reduced. The profuse
flow of tears no doubt also acts strongly
on the cerebral circulation in still fur
Their reducing tension. The sobbing
movements, again, have good influence
upon the venous circulation in the alb
dominal and pelvic viscera, while the
exhaustion produced tends to produce
sleep and thus to give the nervous sys-
tenn its best chance of regeneration. We
should not, then, too hastily intervene
to stop woman from having out her
cry. If we can remove her trouble, by
all means let us do so, but if the trouble
is to remain, let her cry herself to sleep.
This is far better than soothing drafts. !"

HOW TO ESCAPE COLDS.
Not by COddling, but by Becoming Able
to Endure Necessary Exposure.

Not by COddling, but by Becoming Able
to Endure Necessary Exposure.
1t is not always sufficient to point
out danger. 1t is often of even greater
importance to show how the danger
may be averted. Most people properly
recognize cold as avoidable and think
they are greatly to be commended for
the prudence they exercise in protecting
themselves, but if they did but know it
they are really doing all they can to
make themselves susceptible to colds by
weakening their resisting powers
A German professor once wrote a
long treatise, with learned title, on
how to avoid catching cold. After trac-
ing the history Of colds from the earliest
ages, studying their causes and symp-
toms and cataloguing the remedies
which have been used by the most emil
nent physicians of all times he conclud-
ed with a short chapter on prevention.
His plan was to inure the back of
the neck to drafts by having some one
direct current Of air upon it from
bellows three times day.
The writer had the correct idea, al
though its practical application was
clumsy and he was long time in reach
ing it The best and only way to escape
colds is to meet the causes that produce
them and not to run from them.
Let the body be hardened by cold
sponge bath or even cold plunge, fol-
lowed by brisk rubbing with a
'scratchy" towel, every morning. Let
the clothing be adapted to the season,
though always as light as possible, but
keep the neck uncovered-no turned up
coat collar, no muller, no boa. Never
let the temperature in the house rise
above 70 degrees in the winter Air
every room Systematically every day,
no matter what the outdoor temperature
may be- Always have fresh air in the
bedroom. There is nothing poisonous in
might air, 3" popular belief to the con-
trary Notwithstanding.
In word, don't be always afraid Of
catching cold, don't coddle, but meet
cold and wet and changes of tempera-
ture like man, or rather like horse,
and you will then run better chance
of being as strong as horse.
Of course you must strengthen your
armor where it is weak, but if you rec
ognize in yourself weak place, "cold
spot, don't cover it up with more
clothes, but tougher it and tougher
your entire body until it is one homo
geneous resistant whole. Youth IS Com
panion.

Winter Coats.

In coat shapes for the winter both
semiloose and fitted shapes are favored.
The collars are still the familiar high
standing bands finished with braided
or braid edged tabs, crenelated strips of
velvet, fur bordered points and other
fancy shapes formed and decorated to
conform to the rest of the garment.
Most of the sleeves are very small coat
shapes, or else very much reduced NUT
ton leg styles, finished either with q
flare at the wrists or turned back with
deep machine stitched cuff The great
est novelty in wraps. aside from the
widely popular Russian model, is the
garment closely fitted back and front,
the jacket slightly pointed, and reach
ing only trif1e below the waist line on
the sides
Over the very close coat sleeves fall
loose open circular bell sleeves, which
are silk lined and decorated in various
ways to match the jacket trimmings
These little garments are designed to
accompany calling or church costume
or for other occasions for which small
wrap is requisite. A few of these wraps
fasten on the left side and are trimmed
across the front with two rows of rather
large buttons, giving the jacket dou-
BILE breasted effect. These wraps are
made of various materials, including
velvet. brocade, repped silk in heavy
cordings or fine cloth, with a handsome
trimming of braiding or passementerie
in conjunction with fur. New York

A NEW WOMAN.

She's up to date,and strictly new,
And yet she's not afame with zeal.
She wears no skirt that's sewed in two,
She is not skilled to ride wheel.
Her sex's wrongs she does not feel.
No public scheme her thoughts pursue,
And yet, the fact can't conceal,
She's very new.
Her souls ideals are scant and few,
Yet not by man is she controlled,
And, though her eyes are deeply blue,
No occult force her glances hold.
She cares not for the days of old,
Nor does the future charm her view. :.
She does not work for fame or gold, 4
And yet she's new. !.
All homage at her shrine is due.
Her claim no mortal dares to scorn.
She from the infinite takes her cue.
She's fresh as earth primeval morn.
She faces life with powers unworn,
For, now to prove my statements true,
It's scarce one moon since she was borr
You see, she's newt

physician If she does so, the chances are
that she is told that her trouble is nervous
ness or insomnia or indigestion or hear
trouble. 1t does not happen very often that
this diagnosis is correct. When by some
fortunate chance she is told the truth, that
she is suffering from weakness and disease
of the distinctly feminine organism, she is
told at the same time that she must submit
to the obnoxious examinations and local
treatment SO embarrassing to a sensitive
woman. All this is unnecessary.
