1T was two years ago that the
bishops romance came to a focus,
when it was announced that Lady
Ulrica Duncombe, the youngest of
the four famous beauties, daughters
of the earl of Faversham, was TO be-
come his bride. All London was
startled. The bride,to-be, strikingly
like her lovely sister, the late duchess
Of Leinster, was barely "a. Her deli
cate charm had been fostered in an
environment Of softest luxury The
man she had chosen dwelt among the
masses in the most laborious DIOCESE
in England. 1t would mean self-immc-
lation, her friends said
But the affair was evidently a love
match. Lady Ulrica, always of seri-
Gus cast OF thought, entered heart
and soul into the bishops plans For
three short months he lived in fools
paradise before the engagement was
abruptly broken. Whether her courage
faltered or relatives interfered, none
!
dared ask. But with the wedding day
already in view the beauty, who had
declined an earl for his sake, refused
to marry her churchman lover.
''The bishop, stunned by the blow,
which crumbled his happiness, went
abroad. He returned a changed man.
He is still the working bishop with a
life devotion to his work which has
spiritualized and ennobled his face
and bearing. But the youthful
buoyancy that characterized his splen-
did energy is gone His romance cost
him dear.
King Edwards appointment was in
the nature of a reward for his labors
in his former diocese. Ingram is the
youngest holder of the see."

THE ORNAMENTAL VALUE
OF AIRY, FAIRY TULLE,

The wearing of piece Of tulle
around the neck is exceedingly becom-
ing, and it is not to be wondered at
that it still flourishes merrily among
maids and matrons. The tulle is tied
IN q full bow under the chin or in
SNOWFALL rosette at the left side. It
matters not whether it is white or
black tulle, but the white is more
universally becoming than the black.
and consequently more used.
When woman has thin neck and
wishes to make low-cut waist be-
coming, a clever idea is to tie the
band Of tulle around her neck and
then wear over this her necklace or
jeweled collar. Putting folds of tulIe
inside Of waist that is cut low is a.
graceful fashion, particularly with a
black gown. In colored satin ball
gowns, where the line Of the satin
against the skin is not becoming.
folds of tulle the shade of the satin
will do much to improve the effect.

TIPS FOR THE WOMAN WHO
GIVES FORMAL DINNERS.

Pure white tulips in the form of
miniature flower bed, either oblong or
oval. and f~inged with leaves or vines,
make q beautiful centrepiece. Yellow
tulips, arranged in the same manner,
are also charming. The return of
light and life after the long winter
cannot be SO well expressed by any
other hue; a rich border of mig
nonette greatly enhances their beauty,
and no other green-mingles better
with tulips.
With an arrangement like this in
the center, pale yellow shades crown
the candles Gin tulip shape), and if
one of those fascinating little boxes,
the top of which Stimulates a yellow
tulip stands besides each plate, the
whole will be suggestive of the well
come spring sunshine.
With yellow tulips the china is most
artistic in clear white, and yellow
details are readily possible for the
menu.

A FEW SOFT MURMURS
OF MODISH MILLINERY.

The black lace hat is again with us.
Steel and gold buckles and slides
appear on the smart millinery.
Flower petals are pretty for brim
facings; they are also used for entire
hats
Large, broad, flat and light are the
adjectives which best describe the
new hats.
Black velvet, both in wide and
narrow widths, is a distinctive feature
of millinery.
The hat with many brims is one of
the fads of the season; it may be
supplied with two or five, as you like.
The little June roses, in pink, az
ranged either in punches or wreaths.
with a smart bow Of black velvet,
look charming on black and white
crinoline hat
Crowns of roses, brims faced with
them or encircled with a wreath, are
favOTite ways of arranging this most
popular Of the artificial flowers. A
wreath of tiny roses on the very edge
of the brim is fancy of the moment.
While ostrich plumes are more ex-
tensively used in winter millinery
they appear on quite a number of the
hats destined for spring wear. They
are not restricted as to color. Black
and white are much used, but plumes
harmonizing with the delicate color
schemes of hats are also favored. A
pretty effect is obtained by yelling q
large white plume in white silk tulle

! the long, almost straight skirt with no
ruffies at the hem and plenty of
| fullness confined in tucks around the
hips; other skirts show clusters OF
| shirring about the hips, and the flare
| is produced by V-shaped panels of
! lace pointing up at intervals from the
lace band around the hem. Again a
CIRCULAR trimming is used; this, how
ever, only suits tall and slender wo-
men, as it necessarily increases the
apparent size of the hips.
Graduated bands are quite a feature
Of the spring skirts, and are of various
kinds, for instance, the bias band Of
velvet in quite deep width narrowing
to a band of barely half an inch.
Some pretty effects are obtained by
suede cloth bands on a satin-finis1ed
cloth. Both are of the same color,
but the difference of the gloss sets Off
the bands with surprising effect.
Grouped cordings and tiny tucks are
also used as bands, and these are
often of taffeta silk or satin.
Taffeta silk squares matching the
cloth in color are set into the skirt of
one gown and outlined with lace in
sertion. This trimming, arranged in
diamond form, heads the circular
t1ounce below an upper skirt tucked
all around.
A gOred skirt which at every
seam forms an inverted box plat
from the knees down, is one very
good style, especially for cloth.
= +
The skirt with yoke and straight
panel front appears again among the
thin gowns, the fullness = below being
gathered instead of plated to the
yoke, and being finished around the
hem with feather-stitched tucks, or
stitched bands of silk.

STRANGE FIND,
Grounding and Snakes Found to be
Frozen Solid.

1rounuHog ana snakes round to be
Frozen Solid.
Franklin, Pa, April 14-On the
quarries back of Siverly several men
are employed getting out stone and
during the past few days these mea
have had rare opportunity to observe
the peculiarities of animal life.
The men stripped the earth from the
top of a big rock a few days ago and
uncovered a woodchuck, commonly
called a grounding, in the deep sleep
or comatose state that preserves the
life of a alternating animal during it's
long winter fast.
Water had gathered around the
body of the animal, and had frozen
into ice, and when taken from the 40 G
that had sheltered it since it made Is
appearance last grounding day" the
woodchuck had rolled into a ball and
was frozen solid.
After it had been brought to the
warmth of a big fire in a neighboring
hotel attempts were made to uncoil it
but without avail. At the end of TWEEN
ty-four hours, however, the an.
imai suddenly gave signs of life

The guests at the hotel gave it COO

has the freedom of his house.
The quarrymen have also unearthat

LESLIE CARTER,
Gives Some Advice to Girls Who Wish
To Become Actresses.

Gives Some Advice to Girls Who Wish
To Become Actresses.
The WOman's Home COMPANION
contains an article entitled The
Actress and Her Rewards, from The
pen of Leslie Carter, one of Americas
most famous actresses. Her long ex-
perience and remarka Bile rise qualify
her to speak with authority on the
advantages and disadvantages Of a
stage career. She gives the following
helpful suggestion to stage aspirants:
ITO portray human character on the
stage in a manner that carries the
imagination Of the audience entirely
away from the theater girl must
first learn what that character truly
is, what are its natural surroundings,
and must know exactly how the hui
man imagination operates, and now
human sympathies are attracted or
repealed. 1t is obvious that to do this
girl must first be possessed of a
first-class school education; she must
then closely study the life about her;
then she must read extensively, es-
pec1aily history and dramatic fiction,
and such reliable current periodicals
as will keep her constantly abreast of
the times, not alone in stage matters,
but IN every other topic of interest to
the public in general. In a word, the
girl must make herself a thoroughly
well-rounded woman of the world.
She canont shut herself up in her
castle. She must rub elbows as
readily with the riffraff of society as
with its most cultivated and refined
members
When a girl has obtained a general
idea OF all this she has a fair chance
to become successful actress. But
she must not imagine she has become
one already. Next she must secure
thorough coaching in the technique of
acting. This she cannot learn from
books. She must seek it at first
class dramatic school; or, better still.
she can enlist the services Of some
private instructor of recognized
ability-the better the instructor. the
surer and quicker her rise and
progress"
