Europe. : Necessary to the enjoy

liberal education which would aid

amount of money to enable me to
enjoy pleasures with expense at

I do not think that l should be
able to enjoy myself fully when un-.
employed and inactive, but prefer
very greatly life of movement, or
at least, activity. This trip would
afford a great deal of pleasant and
interesting occupation, and al
though it would last but few
months should always remember
it and profit by what had seen.
Such trip may be called pleas
ure of lifetime, because of the
memory which remains years after

read or think, the memory of those
pleasant months would always be

of fashion.
One Of the latest of French hats has
she entire under side of the gracefully
curved brim covered with tiny pink

Summer tweeds and friezes are all
made In the most attractive and arts,
tic colorings. The paler green's, pinks,
grays and beiges are among the most
fashionable shades.
Coaching, casino and visiting coats
are made Of voile laid over silk. No
other material seems just at present
quite so indispensable in the preparing
of the summer outfit as this beautiful
cloth.
A pretty way of finishing the white
satin revers and collar Of a coat of
satin brocade is to use trfcolored en-
broidery silks to check the satin, the
diamond spaces thus obtained being
filed in with black French knots.

An ABSURD Custom In Vienna,

In Vienna every mans home is his
dungeon from 10 p. m. to 6 a. m. Vienna
is a city Of flats, and at 10 p. IN. the
common entrance door Of each block is
closed and bolted. Thereafter persons
passing in or out must pay fine of
twopence to the concierge until mid
night and fOurpence from that hour to
a. IN. To go out to post letter costs
,twopence and the same amount to re-
turn. To prolong visit to friend
after 10 p. N. means twopence to get
out Of his house and twopence more to
enter your own. A natural result of
this irritating tax is that Of all capital
cities Vienna is earliest to bed.

The French horn or cor de chasse is
regarded by some musicians as the
sweetest and mellowest of all the wind
instruments. In Beethoven's time ii
was little else than the old hunting
horn. which, for the convenience of the
mounted hunter, was arranged in spiral
convolutions, to be slipped over the
head and carried resting on one Shout
der and under the opposite arm. The
Germans still call it the waldhorn-
that is, forest horn"
