Orfg Gin Of Visiting Cards.

The use of visiting cards dates back
to quite an antiquity" explains Mrs.
Van Koert Schuyler, in the Ladies'
Home Journal. Formerly the porter
at the lodge or door of great houses
kept visitors book, in which he
scrawled his idea of the names of those
who called upon the master and his
family, and to whose inspection it was
submitted from time to time. One fine
gentleman, scion of the nobility from
the Faubourg St. German, was
shocked to find that his porter kept
so poor register of the names of
those who had called upon him. The
names, badly written with spluttering
pen and pale or muddy ink, suggested
to him the idea of writing his own
name upon slips of paper or bits of
cardboard in advance of calling upon
his neighbors. lest his name should
fare as badly at the hands of their
porters. This custom soon became
generally established

part Of oificialdom. On one of her

with two cabinet women, when the

Yes. Sebastian rode off for him at

Barbara says nothing. Her aunt is
in pain, and pain makes most people
irritable; so she leaves the room, and
prepares to continue her own pack

a strange sense of, unreality, wonder

be living when her gowns see the eight

st. The first time he got a rebuff. but
his persistence won the hand OF another
fair membcr-uf- tfrr- furnily. The story
by the relative OF the Thaws Is as fol-
lows;
For long time the Earl Of Yarmouth
and Harry Kendall Thaw. a brother of
Miss Alice, have been close friends.
About the middle OF last December the
Earl came here as the guest Of Harry
Thaw, and was lav.shly entertained al
the Thaw residence. II was only nat
ural that, at the entertainments given
in his honor he should meet Miss Eliza
beth Thaw. daughter Of the late VIII
liam Thaw Jr., herself millionaire in
her own right.
The Earl was apparently smitten and
paid violent court TO Miss Thaw. who
has Just passed her twenty-frst birthday
But his title and .accompl shments
made no impression on the girl, and his
proposal OF marriage met prompt re-
fusal. few days later the announce
ment was made that Miss Elizabeth Thaw
would marry Henry~Collins. Then came
the inquiry 10 who Henry Collins Is. 1t
was discovered that he is the son OF this
Mrs. Henry L. Collins OF this city, and
graduate of the Annapolis
Naval academy. lie had won great cred
Il In the naval service during the Span

When the Earl OF Yarmouth discovered
that he could not win the hand and for
tune of the graffd daughter OF the origi-
nal William Thaw. his gaze fell upon
Miss Alice 'Thaw. aunt OF the girl who
had spurned his title, and sister OF his
friend and host. Harry Kendall Thaw.
Again II was the case OF violent love
on the part OF the Earl, and he was In
Miss Thaw's company constantly. When
she went TO Washington the Earl followed
her there. Then came the announce
ment that there was an engagement bet
ween the nobleman, and Miss Thaw. The
latter's mother. Mrs. William Thaw, rail-
sed violent objections and Miss Alice was
hurriedly sent TO the home of Mrs Lucy
Carnegie at Dungeness. Ga. On the
same train went the Earl.
When the engagement was announced,
Mrs William Thaw saw that II was use
less 10 make further opposition, as her
daughter was at age and could do as she
pleased. Then she accepted the inevi-
table
This week picture Of Miss Alice Thaw

Mrs Thaw herself, and with II the an
nouncement OF the engagement. Mrs.
Thaw, IL Ia said. regrets deeply the step
her daughter has taken. but the girl was
deeply In love with the Earl and could
not be dissuaded from her course.
Miss Alice Thaw is about twenty-five
years OF age. tall and stately, and il con-
sidered one OF the most beautiful wo-
men In Plttsburg. Her fortune amounts
TO more than million dollars and her
income is said to be $4,000 n year.
