buried After Two Centuries.

A singular case of most abnormally
posthumous interment took place re-
Gently at Revel, a Russian town near
the gulf of Finland. The body, or
rather. mummy, thus tardily buried,
was that of the Belgian soldier of for
tune, Due Charles de Croy, who had
been commander in chief of the Russian
army at the historic battle Of Narva, in
1900. Made prisoner by the Swedes
during the fight, De Croy took up his
residence at Revel, where he died in the
course of nature. his creditors, how
vel. ~demurring to his burial until his
debts had been paid in full. So the sol
der was mummified and his remains
have stayed ' since then in a Luth-
cram church, where they have been ex-
hibited to ~sightseers as a curiosity.
Now, at last, amid such pomp as that
afforded by the presence of the local
puthorties, Due Charles de Croy has
been placed in q lew coffin and properly
inferred in the vaults of this church, and
thus ends as strange a chapter as the
records Of sculpture have ever con-
tained.-London Sketch.

Fashion demands that either over.
skirts or iounces should be a part OF

ular and is little seen. The latter are
beginning to appear everywhere. Until
g plain skirt is indeed a rarity.
OF necessity, the modes for wearing
1ounces are varied. The bent skirt has
four three-inch hounces about the boz
tom. with a band of passementeTie to
head them. But such a trimming is fa-
tai to the short person. and will be
worn only by tail. stately girls.
One of the new French msdels has
founces put on in a very novel way. The
material is a figured chaIlie. Around
the foot slanting bands Of white elm
broidery, six inches long. are put on at
four-inch intervals. Then. crossing
these bands, from the top of one to the
base of the next, are double hounces.
This mode of trimming is good for a
short person.
flounces on seams continue to be used
to a great extent Sometimes they run
the entire length of the skirt, but a
much eve way is to have them run
from the foot half way up Che skirt euu
end there with a rosette or bit of pas
sementerie.
til is quite possible that many ONE
will wear silk gowns this summer. This
is due to the fact that that material
is offered at very low price. Foulard,
although not very new, if made up care
fully, will look well. and can be pur.
chased as low as 25 cents. It comes in
soft ground colors, with scrolls of white
Some of the prettiest show a fine stripe
instead of scrolls.
White satin and lace are the best ma
terials for trimming. Ribbon velvet il
also much used, and has a quaint, old.
fashioned air that makes it thorough
ly up to date.
A charming gown is ofpearl gray silk,
with a fine hairline stripei in black.
The skirt is narrow, with what little
fullness it has drawn to the back. Yet
the trimming easily any
