BLESSED BY THE POPE.

Mother Amedeus, of Helena. Mont. and
her Indian protege, Kol-in-zu-ten, who
have been recently given an audience be-
fore the Pontiff in Rome, passed through
Pittsburg, says the Dispatch" during
the early part of the week on their home
ward journey to the West. They were
entertained for a day and night at the
Mother house Of the Ursulines Winebid-
die Avenue.
Kol-in-zu-tcn is a graceful little maiden
of eleven years of age. She was rendered
an enthusiastic reception by the students
of the Crsuline Academy the evening of
her arrival and an imDromptu musicale
was arranged, in which the Indian girl
participated. Kol-in-zu-ten had her own
mandolin. and rendered several selections
This same mandolin had filed its mission
of pleasure before the convocation of the
superiOresseS of the Ursuline order as
sembled in Rome during the winter. and
as fingered by the Indian girl had played
no small part in bringing about the unity
OF that sisteThood on broad and pro-

young woman came in and asked for

delightful and novel honeymoon, free

Mr.. and Mrs. fleyer had but to pull UP

Cornish couple who wished TO be let

that their three weeks Of honey n gOn were
quiet and delightful.
A couple were recently married in Lon
don in their travelling attire and went di-

heard not Il word of them. They traV-
eled TO out-of-t he-way and old-fashionCd
towns. where they would be sure 10 meet
no acquaintance. But the most pc
culiaT thing about their wedding journey
was that they took with them neither
baggage, handbook, nor bundle. They
Travelled. and SO had no care of luggage.
A well-to-do couple in Holland recently
made their wedding trip in a canal boat,
in which they travelled 200 miles The
Journey was leisurely, but fun OF pleasing
experiences. They took no servants with
them and did their own cooking. When
the weather was pleasant they went
ashore and built a FIRE and cooked ana
ate gypsy fashion. At other times they
kept house on the canal boat. After two
weeks of this they took train for their
new home where cooks and other ser
wants awaited them.
One newly married couple Of an uncon-
ventional turn OF mind climbed TO the top
of Mount Blanc 1t was a hazardous trip
by reason Of a terrific snOwstorm, in
which they were caught, but they arrived
safely at the summit. where the bride

The mode now is the rational one of

is worn loose enough so that breathing

China Mending.

In these days, when all the ordinar y
avocations possible to women are over
crowded. many take refuge in unusual
occupations. These frequently are the
result of chance, a mere trihe serving to
suggest the feasibility of something I'M
thought of before.
1t was by chance that Mrs. Evelyn S.
De Witt adopted the business of mending
brc-a-brac. Being a china painter, she
occasionally broke valuable pieces and
rarely could have them repaired to suit
her; so she began to experiment on her
own account. She found the cements she
tried to be faulty in many respSDts, So
