individual. We owe those dramatic
chaps big debt, and we ought to be

won't go, principally because they've
already seen the plays at matinees,
and secondly because it looks and
sounds bad to go with young man to
see a play that the ministers are de-

would go, but they don't expect you to
ask 'em, and / don't.

FANS IN HISTORY.

0reatsums are spent in ornamenting
fans, and many were painted on by the
skllful fingers of Watteau
In the eighteenth century the fan
was held up to shield the face when
anything shocking was uttered.
The fan was first brought into Eu-
ropean notoriety by Catherine de
Medicis, who introduced it intc
France.
In the east, the use of the fan is of
remote antiquity. There is fine col.
lection of fans among the Egyptian
antiquities in the British museum.
Fans are made, TO fair extent,
in this country. The total value of the
fans annually manufactured in the
world Is placed in excess of $500, 900.
Queen Elizabeth of England, when
IN full dress, carried fan During
the sixteenth and seventeenth CEN
turies, fans were used by gentlemen.
The manufacture of fans is exten.
sively carried on in England, France
and Belgium. Whole villages in Pi-
cardy are employed in the various
branches connected with the industry.
The Chinese have greatly excelled
In the art of fan making, and in the
species of lacquered fans their supe-
riority is admitted. Cheap fans are
manufactured in Canton as low as two
cents a dozen.
In the palmy days of the French
court, when Louis XVI. and Marie An
toinette lived, there was a profirate
extravaganza in fans, which was ex-
tremely profitable to the manufac-
turers of them
In 1871 there was held, under the
patronage of Queen Victoria, at the
South Kensington museum, COM
petitive exhibition of fans. Large
numbers were placed on exhibition
from Egypt, Turkey and Mexico and
the islands of the Pacific ocean, and
included almost every private and
public collection of any note. The
queen received the highest premium,
$4,000, for a fan which once belonged
to Marie Antoinette,

times In dazed manner, she prepared

Servants and Employers.
From Success.

From success.
There are families that seem to be able
to make good servants out of the most
unpromising material. Their employees are
always kind, considerate, patient, cheer
full and willing They do not steal or take
advantage of trust; they are always kind
to the children. polite to guests and agree
able to everybody. Long experience as an
employer has taught the writer that the
difference Is not so much In the employe as
In the employer. When everybody con-
demns a man. charity says. do not de-
nounce this man; there is divinity In him
somewhere" A good employer is able to
find and bring out the manly or womanly
qualities innate in every normal being. He
calls out the best in those under him.
simply because he Is good himself. We
find ourselves reflected In others: the world
gives US back just about what we give 1t.
It we laugh, It will laugh back; II we
frown and criticise, are captious and dis
agreeable, the world will show us similar
side. So our employees reflect our treatment

In America puritanism survived so long

The Red Hunting Coat.

From the Tailor and Cutter.
The origin of the red coat is a mystery.
There Is a story told that one OF the early
Henrys was so enamored with the sport
of fox hunting as to ordain 1t to be a royal
sport, and the red coat was worn in con-
sequence" This however. has been pointed
at as absurd. as in those days scarlet was
not a royal livery at all. One thing there
can be no doubt about, and that is that the
scarlet coat Is very popular for those who
hunt regularly. And 1t must be confessed
that it adds picturesquenesS to the scene.
The question of color seems to be very
much q matter of taste: it is looked upon
as an indication of social position In the
abstract any one can don the pink, II so
desired, but 1t is considered out of taste
for any one to adopt that color If he does
not literally subscribe to the hunt fund.
The black coat Is considered to come next
in social position, and the ordinary muftl
garment for those whose subscription Is
very small indeed.
