beautiful life or birth Of the founder OF
the Christian faith.
AS Christmas was the great feast
day OF the medieval church, what
more natural than that the artists
should paint the Nativity, but as those
old italian artists of the middle ages
were great admirers of feminine lovli-
ness in its more spiritual phases, what
more natural than, under the guise Of
the Madonna, they should give per-
to their ideal of lovely wo-
manhood?
Michael Angelo, who did not like
women, or who at most simply toler-
ated them. is known to have painted
few Madonnas. One is in the English
national gallery at present and is far
from one of the best specimens of his
work, while Raphael Sanzio, who was
in love with every pretty face that
crossed his path, painted Madonna at
ter Madonna and finally excelled in
that Of the Madonna di San Sisto."
Raphael, with his gentle childlike soul,
was the one to pain the Christ Child
with a charm that has never been ex-
celled. Txto the face of both mother
and child he always managed to in
fuse a subtle spirituality that other

ian artists were nothing more than
beautiful Italian women and children,
idealized more or less according to the
imaginations of the artists who painted
them.
Murillo, the Spanish master, painted
many famous Madonnas. One of the
most celebrated Of his pictures is the
Alteration of the Shepherds" now in
the Prado at Madrid. His Madonnas
are all lovely and all distinctly Spanish
in type.
The art world of Europe has recently
been stirred by the finding of a new
Madonna, one by Botticelli, discovered
a few months ago in Il of the gran
aries of the Pitt palace at Florence.
The painting is on wood and is sup
posed to be one of the earlier works of
the great master. The background of
the picture is filled with clusters of
roses, from which fact the painting has
been named the Madonna dele Rose"
The Madonna is represented kneeling
before the infant Saviour in IN atti-
tude of alteration, while four beautiful
angels, whose faces are full Of a celes-
tial sadness. kneel in the background
of the picture. Botticelli was a mystic,
and this picture is marked by that

displaced the type of which the Ma
donnas of art were the representative.
The art of the churches Of the middle
ages had its object. 1t sought to teach
to the populace those lessons which I'M
learned men and ONE had not the
skill to read from the Holy Book. The
church realized, too, that it was
through little children and through the
mothers of children that its most eff
fective lessons would be taught. There
fore the childhood of the Christ and
the beautiful attributes of the mother
of the Christ Child were emphasized
The honor which the church accorded
to Mary as the mother Of Christ gave
dignity to the position OF all women
and did much to elevate them in the
estimation Of an age but little inclined
to honor anything that was weak and
helpless. ELLA MATHIESSEN.

and, l am free to confess, do captivate.
Curiously enough they are divided into
three classes. When worn in the e

a medley of chiffon. laces and jewels, it

are cut to drag, have not lengthy

The smartest of this class consists of
skirt and Jacket, although l have noted
several made with long three-quarter
capes which are half dolmans round

by the O conservative folk as "ques-
tionable taste" 1t is nevertheless in
great evidence. The velvet gown has
been always the superlative degree OF
elegance in dress, and as such seen at
balls and receptions from time i'm
memorial, but not until this year Is Il
to be enumerated by the score and in
use generally. The velvet gown is the
sublimest expression of extravaganza
in the ~sartorial world. Women who
are mistresses of the art of dressing are
not only acquainted with this fact, but
appreciate another more potent-that
velvet even more than fur softens and
beauties the face.
Now that my attention Is riveted up
On the subject, l can partially under
stand that there are good and sufficient
reasons for the popularity Of velvet and
forgive the s~uddenness with which il
came into being. First, it is peculiarly
well adapted to the styles OF the period.

trains have from the earliest days been
identified with this favored material,
and it is but coming into its own when
freely utilized. Secondly, it is imper-
vious to dust and wears exeellently
well. Thirdly. it one in more beau
tiful and varied shades and prices than
any other fabric, and, lastly, its twin
sister, velyeteen, possesses the sans
attributes at less than half it's cost, and
both supply sufficient warmth fer win
ter wear.
Madame some days since admonished
me to be on the alert for the stunning
velvet frocks which would appear with
the first cold, crisp days. l was quite
conscious of surprise. and, Aunt Hetty
says. incredibiiity and disapproval as
well. However be 1t, I acknowledged
the truth-they are here in numbers
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1899-12-24

Either a silk blouse or plain velvet
bodice is correct, which being merely
a matter of taste. The inevitable
stitching is lone In contrasting colors
on seams and edges, else stitched bands
of taffeta in one color decorate. When
fur is employed as a trimming SILK
cords and loops are used for fastening;
when not, cut steel or mother of pearl
buttons do the work.
There is certainly nothing smarter
than the velvet costume for street
wear, now that I've been permitted to
study the subject from close range,
and l strongly urge those who are not
provided with tailor gowns to invest in
one. The fad, for such 1t Is, has
caught like wildfre, and within the
week I've seen no less than six hand
some dresses reproduced in ~velveteen
with charming results. Velveteen
wears like iron, grows shabby less
quickly than cloth, is inexpensive. and
therefore will make splendid street
costumes.
A neatly tailored velveteen box coat
and skirt OF hyacinth blue stitched in
black was one Of the most attractive
toilets at Bagby's first musical morn
ing. With 1t was worn a felt turban Of
the same color ornamented by two big
choux OF black panne velvet. There
was a certain amount Of simple ele-
gance in the costume which called
forth exceptional praise: it could be
worn with equal propriety on the
promenade or to the theater and was
certainly the smartest bit OF dressing
at this recognized panorama of smart
frocks.
I have recently had access TO mad
ame's foreign letters Of advice. from

his later works. The picture when
found was covered with the accumulat-
ed CRIME of centuries. This was clean
ed off, and the picture will hang with
other art treasures in the Pitt pal
ace.
Modern painters have not so much
cared to paint the Madonna, partly be-
cause their choice has been less re-
stricted than hat af the medieval
masters. When they do paint

original owners, having sold it to the
elector of Saxony. The eleotor took it
to Dresden, where it remained until
Napoleon seized it and carried it to
Paris as one of his trophies. After
Napoleon's reinforcement the picture
was returned to Dresden, where 1t has
since remained.
The Sistine Madonna of Raphael sur
passes all other Madonnas in majesty
and spirituality. Its expression COM
bines the sweetness Of mother love with
the dignity of the queen and the purity
Of the saint. Raphael's Madonna needs
no crown or attendant angels to pro-
claim her the queen of heaven.
The Sistine is the most popular of all
Madonnas, and the copies of it in gal
leries and the photographs in private
collections are more than can be num-
bered.
The pictures which directly represent
the Navitity are not so many as those
devoted exclusively to portraiture of
the Madonna and her infant. Taddeo

FASHIONS FOR CHRISTMAS.
The Velvet Gown New Foreign
Fads-By Daisy Hay.

Tickle fashion again asserts her
right to the cognomen. Just a fort
night ago I penciled the ethics of the
velvet gown, saying it was fit only for
big occasions, being recognized really
as a real costume; its propriety for or
binary wear admitted Of no argument.
But the hour Of the velvet gown has
arrived. 1t takes advantage of no fete
day as an apology for its presence. 1t
may hereafter faunt its beauty any
day at any function, and we votaries
of the cult will slavishly do obeis-
ance.

will be regarded for some time to come

of an aesthetic gray lady. Robes OF
this type would be. of curse, made OF

The thin outside yelling fabric would

widely known picture Of its type. 1t,
too, is to be found in the Dresden gal
lery.
The Renaissance was a period when
the painting of Madonnas was popular.
The church was the great patron of
arts, and it was in the church monas-
teries and converts and the churches
themselves that the artists found their
most profitable patrons. The clergy
represented the most prosperous and
cultivated class in the middle ages, and
the only pictures which they could
conscientiously buy were those relating
to religious subjects. Therefore the
popularity Of this class of art at this
time is easily explained. 1t was natural
that these pictures should relate to
Of the church or should deal with the

| When the bells chime in the cam
paniles Of the old world cathedrals on
Christmas eve. the wealth Of candles
blazing on all the magnificent carved
affairs for once in the year illuminate
The stories Of old painted On the walls
OF church and cathedral. These pic
lures have been the inspiration of gen.
GRAFTON after generation, and promi-
nent among them are the paintings of
the Christ Child and of the Madonna.
Above the high altar usually may be
seen a Madonna clasping in her arms
the infant Jesus, while ranged about
the walls are the pictures representing
various scenes in the life of the
Saviour.
At this season special attention Is
given to the picture that represents the
Nativity. II 1t is possible, candles are
lighted near it that its significance may
not be lost to sightseers or worshipers.
At Christmas this picture, if from the
hands Of INA Of the great masters, like
that OF the Madonna of Cimabue in the
Church OF San Maria Novella at Flor
once, that of Moretto at Verona or that
OF Virarini in Venice, is the cynosure
of adoring eyes.
1t Is true that the most famous of the
Madonnas are now in the galleries or
a part Of famous art collections, while
less famous masters have painted the
pictures that have taken their places
In the churches. The Sistine Madonna

Child is full of an indeinable sorrow,

the courtly Van Dyke is a noble woman,

The magnetic needle has been used
in Sweden for seeking iron ore for
nearly two centuries. The modern
instruments show much improvement
over the earlier ones, and Prof. Nor
denstrom, of Stockholm, expresses
surprise that their use is so little
known in other countries. Thalen's
magnetometer and Tiberg's inclina-
tor are the most important Of the in
struments. In surveying with the
magnetometer.- which is said to con-
sist of compass on tripod, with
radial arm carrying g movable mag
net, the field is divided into squares
of about 30 feet to the side, the angle
of deviation of the needle noted for
each corner of every square, and the
measures are then plotted, the points
of equal deviation being joined by
curve whose shape indicates the posi-
ton of the disturbing iron. The in
clinator measures the dip of the
needle as we'll as its horizontal de-
