Pearls are named according to their
size. The very large are called par

piece pearls, smallest. dust psa-ls, says
the Philadelphia Times. The oval and
long are termed pear pearls, while
badly formed specimens are known as
baroques. The value of pearls varies,
OF course. with the quality and general
colors. but the piece, seed and dust
pearls always have market price
The cherry and paragon are sold on an
entirely different basis. II many fine
ones are on the market at a time they
may be had at reasonable rates. Some
years they bring almost any price.
The last two years especially, tna deal
ers say, there has been great scarcity
of fine pearls, although there is no fall
ing off in the supply of the small stuff.
When pearl exceeds one karet in
weight It is sold separately. Under
that weight they are sold i'm parcels

come smaller. The smallest dust pearls
collected average about 5000 to the

A BRIDAL HandI,erchIef

A touching and poetical custom pre-
walls in the Welest-Tyro. when a
young maiden is about to be married
Immediately before she steps across
the threshold Of her old home, on her
way to the church, her mother solemn
" gives her a new pocket handkerchief.
The bride holds il in her hand through
out the marriage ceremony, using it
to wipe away her tears. AS soon as
the marriage festivities are ended the
young wife lays the handkerchief aside
in her linen closet, and there 1t remains
as long as she lives. Nothing would
induce a Tyrolese wife to use this sa-
cred handkerchief. 1t may be half a
century or longer before 1t is taken
from its place to fulfil the second anl
last part OF its mission. When The
wife dies, perhaps as a gray old grand
mother, the loving hands of the next
of-kin place the bridal handkerchief
over the face of the dead and It is
buried with her in the grave.

BOOK OF PHOTOGRAPHS.
Goood Way of Putting Pictures Into a

OF pictures into book form is to print
them on paper enough larger than the
PICTURES to leave a wide margin and
instead of mounting them on boards,
TO make them UP into a book. using
heavy water-color paper for the covers,
says Harper's Round Table. Bromide
and platinotype papers are the best for
this purpose, as they are Of firm tex
ture, and do not curl or crack If LETT

used either of these, and wishes TO
make a book after the directions given,
the platinotype will be found the

mide paper OF this size costs compara-
lively little.
In order TO have margin all around
the picture the extra paper must be
covered with nopactinic paper made
into what is called a mask. Take a
piece Of black needle-paper little

paper, and in the center cut an open

ORDER OF NEGRO NUNS.
The Only Coiored sIsterhood in the
United states Is ut New Orleans.

In the old French quarter of New
Orleans, with it's narrow streets, lat
ticed windows and jealously guarded
courts, where the fig and orange tree
grow, is a square of rather miscel-
laneous architecture. Its central build
ing, III Orleans street, is several hum
dred years old. 1t has a stately en-
trance, with great pillars and old-fash-
ioned, ornately carved doors. 1t was
once the old Creole opera house and
ball room of the early days Now it
is the home of the colored nuns. Yet
the order Is not such a very modern
one, after ALL for 1t was founded in
New Orleans over half a century ago.
It's members are now well-known fig
ures on the streets of the Crescent
city. The special object of it's institu-
tion was the education and moral
training of young colored girls and the
care of orphans and aged infirm peo-
pie of the race, says the st. Louis
Republic.
One of the most interesting parts of
the convent is the orphan asylum,
where children ranging in age from
the wee tots just beginning to walk
to girls of ~ and IA years are cared
for. One of the sisters in charge of
the babies was an ex-slave. She is a
-ea' "7nammy" stil',

"But, reverend mother, you seem to
have some white children here" said
the northern visitor, commenting on
the fair white skin of some of the chill
dren.
"Oh, no." said the nun, smiling a
bit wistfully at the ignorance of her
visitor, they all have colored blood
in their veins Maybe they are only
quadroons, octoroons: some of them,
indeed have only one-tenth colored
blood, but that one-tenth black counts
more than the nine-tenths white, and
makes them belong forever to the col
ored people,"
one is reminded of some of Ckple's
stories, the pathos and tragedy there
of.
In the orphan asylum 1856 children
are sheltered who would otherwise be
thrown upon the state. These, as well
as the go poor old colored men and
women and many of the children in
the school, are dependent upon the sis
ters for their daily bread. Formerly
the sisters obtained a fair revenue by
going through the streets of New Or
leans from door TO door, and into busi-
ness houses and railroad offices, solic-
iting aims for their charges. So quietly
did they labor that few outside the
city were even aware of the existence
of the order, the only colored sister
hood in the United States. But the
