y wealthy American who became a
convert TO Rome was very generous to
Pope Leo NH in money matters. He
had done many generous things, and
the pope had rewarded him with or
ders and medals galore. For once Il
year this convert made a pilgrimage to
Rome. where he was kindly received
by the holy father as q son and gener-
ally, until the orders were exhausted,
each time was bestowed with some
fresh honor. On such occasions all
these brave metal pieces We're attached
TO the rich Americans breast.
IN soon end that" the pope remark
ed TO n confidante who was at his side
during the levee. Next time 1 shall
give him a snuffbox," which he did,
and beautiful jeweled box it was.
The following year the American
turned up again and was granted an
audience. when 10 the holy fathers
CONSERVATION the faithful son OF the
church appeared not only with all his
medals, but with the snurbox attached
to his waistcoat.
The next time" the pope said. with
comical sigh. Il shall present him
with n marble topped table. It is the
only thing can think OF that he can't
tie 10 his waistcOat. Chicago Times

Her Inst Drink.

In Hyde Park lives n young matron
who Is of such high nervous tempera-
ment that If she drinks the very small
est amount of alcoholic stimuIant be-
fore going to bed the result is sleepless-
ness for the remainder Of the night.
Some nights ago a number of friends
dropped in for the evening, and the
husband. who, by the way, is south
erner, suggested that he make a mint
julep for each OF the company. The
suggestion was received with delight,
and the juleps were promptly mixed.
In his wife's glass, however, he put
only enough whisky to flavor the
water, probably not more than q tea
spoonful. OF this she slipped about
half. The result, however. was the
same. She was troubled with insomnia
all night long, and it was not until D
o'clock In the morning that she drop
ped off TO sleep and, as n conse-
quence. was not called for breakfast.
At 10 o'clock she came down stairs
and hearing the voices of children on
the front porch stopped to listen. Her
heart filled with motherIy pride as she
heard her elder son, a boy of 6, telling
seven or eight children from the neigh
borhood that they must not make too
much noise as his mamma was asleep.
Imagine her horror, too, as the young
hopeful added:
''She drank so much whisky last
night that she couldn't come down to
breakfast this morning kansas City

A WoMAN,s SPRING WARDROBE

The new spring gowns. made OF all
one material and not with separate
waists as heretofore. will be much
worn.
The separate waists will be of light
silks and muslins or other thin mate
rails.
Almost all the new spring stuffs are
of a soft, clipging quality. which
makes them adaptable to the present
style Of gown.
There are to be some very lovely
silk muslins with punches of flowers
and sprays of vinesand buds worn.
The smartest shirt-waist will be made
tucked back and front from the neck
down. and the tucks will he rather
wide than otherwise. The great tend
epcy is to make The waist-line as long
rs possible in front.
The tailor and walking skirts will
barely sweep the ground. and the trains
have entirely passed away with the
habit and close fitting backs.
The return of the hustle is heralded
It is not large affair. but small, well
shaped.
Sleeves are still worn tight. and are
much trimmed. They are quite long
and the smartest ones are made endlne
in point which coyers the top OF 'hf
hand to the knuckles.
Collars are to be worn high, but no
as stiff as they have been.
The new hats are made OF some
fancy straw braids. tulle, or silk net
of the most fantastic shapes. Breasts
birds. wings and feathers are muci
less worn. and you can't have enough
flowers. Lawrence in the Marcel
Ladies' Home journal.
