The KING
and QUEEN
ENGLAND

were entertained with a VIC
TOR at their New Years re-
ception.
Read what the New York
Herald said regarding it:
Perhaps the greatest SEN
sation of the afternoon was
a performance of a new mon
ster Victor Talking Ma
chine, which reproduced the
wonderful singing of NM.
Caruso, Plancon and other
great artists. 1t was funny
to see the people coming up
stairs, as they entered the
room, expecting to see some
great singer, to find it was
a Victor Talking Machine.
But. what a Talking Ma
chinei Such a one has never
before been heard in London.
People stood around in rings
to listen, and what is more
strange they involuntarily
burst into applause at the
end of every song There was
no vibration. The whole
thing sounded as though
singer was actually in the
room"

Liibbey
Cut
Glass

Cut Glass is no longer
such an expensive luxury
that it can only adorn
the homes of the very
rich. If you will look
through our line and
consider the beauty of
the glass, you will be
surprised to find how
moderate are the prices.
On every piece of
Libbey Glass
you will see engraved
the word ''Libbey." This
name is recognized ev-
erywhere as standing for
the very finest product of
the glass cutters art. 1t
is to cut glass what
''sterling" is to silver.
To every woman it is a
never failing source of
delight. AS diamonds
are jewels for the adorn-
ment of the person, SO
pieces ofaLibbey are jew
els for the adornment of
the home. Each piece
is as beautiful as a flower
and as brilliant as a ray
of sunshine.

Lillian protested: "Aunt Jane, you
must not treat your nephew like thatP
Lady Jane turned fercely upon her.
HAnd I win have nothing more to do
with you, you-dlsgracefui child! You
have chosen your path and you must
expect no sympathy from me. The
carriage will be ready for you In half
an hour. Good afternoon"
Harleigh offered his hand. but she
swept by without looking at him and
left the room.
"Poor dearr said Lillian; at is a
horrid blow to her unrivaled intuition
/ suppose we must leave her; she
won't be so angry when she has had
little time and knows the truth. She
really was so awful as dragon that
1 had to score her off somehow"
Lord Banford nodded mournfully and
found that he had to be back in town
that evening.
As Lady Jane sat raging alone that
night, there arrived a letter from LII
ian's mother. She opened it gloomily.
1t began:
"Dear Jane: I don't think you need
watch Lillian so carefully. 1t appears
that young Harleigh is reconciled with
his uncle, and has been presented
with their place in Hampshire and
quite large income, on condition Of
his marrying decently and settling
down. 1t would not be at all n bad
thing for Lillian to meet him again."
She flung the letter down.
"And the little. villain knew this all
the time! Never again will 1 have
anything to do with other peoples
children
And, gentler thoughts coming over
her, she sat down and wrote to her
new nephew.
The note contained a check for n
months wages in lieu Of notice; and
Lillian, aware that her aunt had some
sense of humor, knew that she must
have been considerably notified to
have done a thing like that.-St, Louis

An Emperor of PeddIers.

The recent death Of Napolean Hay
ard, emperor" Of Partisan street
peddlers, inspires t. P's Weekly to
print a sketch Of his strange career.
He lad been a soldier in Poland and
Italy as well as Frence, and became
prominent in the Commune. His sword
was not like any one else's; 1t was a
yataghan, covered with mock jewels,
and he carried it around his neck. In
his vivid red sash he carried two enor-
nous pistols that could not fire a shot,
At the close Of his soldering Hayard
was penniless in Paris and became a
street merchant. He was offered a
little newspaper agency, and fell into
the groove for which he was best suit
ed. Hayard turned out ballads which
sold like wildire. He put topical toys
in the market that made Paris laugh.
He organized a claque for the dramit-
list or a demonstra ton for the poll
tician with equal facility and eXpedi-
ton. His jocose verses were being
hummed by every one half an hour
after being written. The boulevards
are still echoing his verses on Nine.

DRESS THE HAIR SIMPLY.

With the coming of simple lines in
gowns and wraps, and the passing Of
floppy effects, we may perhaps hope to
be relieved Of the exaggerated styles
of hair dressing that have so long pre-
vailed.
Immense puffs and punches Of hair
hanging down over one eyebrow, great
horns carried forward beyond the fore
head, altering the shape Of the head to
grotesqueness, could never have been
thought beautiful.
In fact, there is something really vul-
gar and low bred about many Of the
startling coiffures, and almost every
one will rejoice to see them disappear,
The hats Of the season demand plen-
ty of soft 1ufflness in the manner Of
wearing the hair, but as all efforts are
more or less trig and closely confined,
so the seasons hats call for less elabor.

supposed to be lucky stone as well,
and to the superstitious minded is a
welcome substitute for the lucky but
long familiar turquoise.

THE NEW EARRING.

The explanation for the new style In
earrings is the change in the shoulder
line. In place of the Gibson square
shoulder the smart thing this season is
the droop of $780, Anything that will
eXaggerate this effect is welcome. Pen
dant earrings accomplish this and also
make the round face look oval. The
ear has to be pierced TO hold securely
the weight of the new elongated ear
ring. In this hole is placed the dia-
mond stud, and from this base hang
pendants Of rubies, large, pear-shaped
pearls or pigeon-blood rubies. Some
very elaborate earrings have an addi-
tional dangle Of small diamonds or any
stone that will add to the brilliancy Of
the trinket.
The customers who desire uncommon
effects purchase the parti-colored ear
rings; from one ear will dangle a big
black, pearl and from the other will
dangle pink pearl.
The earring Of the Elizabethan and
Stuart periods is the modish one to-
day.
Very likely followers of extreme
fashion this season will adopt the style
Of the single earring.

FASHION DEMANDS JEWELs.

1t is fashionable nowadays to wear

Help in Fiqhtinu Disease,

A Chicago life insurance man read
with much interest an account Of the
death Of Charles Kreck a: Allentown.
Pa, in his ninetieth year: Sixty-one
years ago he applied for membership
in an Odd Fellows lodge, but was re-
jected On account of his bad health.
Later he was accepted, and he sur
vived all the other lodge members but
one. 1T is a fact" said the insurance
man, that life insurance companies
often do good to me- by rejecting
them. In many cases the experience
results in a beneficial change of habits
and the man takes better care of him
self. Besides, his obstinacy is aroused
and he determines to live just to show
these insurance men, Any physician
