The Ardmoreite " III Make no Charge for
Mailing "Good Times" Edition.
In answer to the many inquiries
made concerning the cost of copies
of the illustrated immigration books
to be published by this paper we
wish to state that not one of the
10000 copies will be for sale. All
our people have to do is to send us
in a list of names of the parties to
whom they wish them sent and we
will do the rest at our own expense.
In this way nearly every copy of
this splendid publication will fall
on good ground and the result will
be the creation of a widespread
interest throughout the United
States in this section. With the
aid of the half-tone engravings, as
an accompaniment to the.plain
commonsense writeup of the in
ducements we have to offer the
capitalist and home seeker. this
book will, of necessity, be intensely
interesting to the thousands into
whose hands it will fall.
Mr.. Lockwood, who has come
here from Fort Worth to assist in
the compilation of the Good
Times" edition is already at work
but it will be a month, at least,
before his labors will be completed.

THE MUFF IN HISTORY.
1t Has Been Carried by Fair Women
In All Lands for Many
Centuries.

In many sixteenth century portraits
one sees wound around the wrist Of a
noble dame piece of rich, soft iur.

to fulfill the functions OF muff. t.
this is often attached some little fan

cleverly wrought and adorned with
precious stones.
Like many another article of dress, lhe
muff was at first the exclusive property
of the nobility, but when it appeared in
Venice it was carried by courtesans rs
well as by women of the highest rank.
The first Venetian muffs were very
small, made of a single piece Of velvet.

openings fastening with exquisite but
tons OF gold and silver enriched with
precious stones.
BY 1862 the muff seems TO have been
recognized as necessary adjunc: Of

at this time, numbers of gowns, bod

brett, and some of chicken skin for
night to keep her hands plump, soft and
white" are enumerated, and also
three muffs of ermine. sable, gray"
1t will be noticed that my lady has no
black muff. Many years before Charles
IX., "Fidgety Killjoy" as he was called,
regulated the costumes of the class ss-
the bourgeoise to use black muffs, and
only the woman of rank TO carry those

At the time of the national convex
tion In Paris the muffs were large and
fiat, fantastic as were all the fashions
Of that time. In colonial days in Amer
lea they were also very large, but
round.
About 1880 the muffs were principal
ly of chinchilla, of moderate size, and
were often used with what would seem
to US an incongruous combination ~
straw bonnets and thin slippers.
In an old "Dict:onaire Amourcuxs
the muff is defined as "a letter box

TROUT COOKED ON THE HOOK.

Iowstone Park.

Well. what's the end of the story?
There isn't any end. He just chortles
about how he was overcome by the
marvels of nature and that sort OF
thing. He doesn't say another word
about the fish. Now, if you Will only

BISMARCK'S PEASANT LOVE.
A Tyrolese Girl Whom He offered TO
Marry and Live with In
the TyrOl.

A story is just now going the round
of the journals concerning Bismarck
which give for what it is worth, says
a Vienna correspondent of the London
Post. We are told that Bismarck,
while still raw university student,
was staying in the mountain regions of
the Tyrol, near Ultenthal, and fell
deeply in love with a beautiful young
peasant girl He offered 10 make her
his wife, and in order that his marriage
should not take her from her Beloved
mountains, he promised to give up his
own country and stay in the Tyrol.
The parents of the girl, simple peasant
folk, objected, however, to the child,
who had been brought up as a devout
Catholic, being married to a Prussia n
Junker, who was Protestant to boot.
So the romance which threatened to
lose Bismarck for Prussia came to n
sudden end, and the hero of 1t returned
TO his alma mater at Berlin. In hall
at Ultenthal there is still to be seen
picture of Bismarck in the uniform Of
his younger days. The heroine of tie
romance died many years kse ~ the
well-to-do widow of an Austrian landed
proprietor.

A KISSING NATION.
In Russia Men Kiss Men and kissing
is Unsyersal-Oscu1ntiO on
Every Hand.

In no other part Of the world is kiss
ing so much in vogue as in Russia.
From time immemorial it has been the
national salute; indeed. it is more of a
greeting than caress.
In public affairs, as in private, the
kiss is an established custom. Fathers
and sons kiss, old generals with rusty
mustaches kiss, whole regiments kiss
The emperor kisses his officers. On a
reviewing day there are almost as many
kisses as shots exchanged. If Lilipu-
tian corps of cadets have earned the
imperial approval, the imperial salute
is bestowed upon the head boy, who
passes it on with a hearty report to his
neighbor, he in turn to the next, and
so on through the whole juvenile body
On holiday or fete day the young
and delicate mistress of a house will
not only kiss all her maid servants, but
all her men servants, TOO, and if the
gentleman does not venture above her
hand she will stoop and kiss his cheek.
To Judge, also, from the number OF
salutes, the matrimonial bond in these
high circles must be one of uninter-
rupted felicity. A gentleman scarcely
enters or leaves the room without kiss
ing his wife either on her forehead,
cheek or hand.
