The summer night-was soft and still
and the purple heavens were ablaze
with myriads of stars. Even in the
great London park hush seemed to
have fallen, which communicated it's
influence tc those who sat beneath the
tall, motionless trees. In the far dis
lance could be heard the faint rumble
of traffic, but this only seemed to in
tensify the silence within. It was a
night when strange, sweet confessions
drop from faltering lips, and hearts,
despite themselves, tell but the story of
loves awakening.
Even in the fashionable West, a
great London park is scarcely the
place where one might expect to find
the daughter of a baronet, seated in
the dim shadow of the trees, listening
to the warm words Of love which were
being whispered in her ear with a
sweet sense of pleasure that she did
not even attempt to conceal. Yet so
it was. The tree under which they
sat was broad and leafy, and afforded
them concealment from the public
gaze. And that was all they wanted

THEY WRITE IMPROPERLY
WOMEN CAN LOSE HUSBANDS
LOVE BY THEIR LETTERS.
If Women Would Not Take Up Every
Faddish Notion, but Try to Write
LesbIe Hands They Would Win Re-
spect From All. -

One of the things which women are
doing more and more-and when Is
exceedingly annoying to their nus
bands, fathers and brothers-ls TO pc
gin a letter on the fourth page OF
sheet of paper, continue to the nrsl
page, skip to the third and hnlsn on
the second 1t may be very faddlsh'
Int If ia enough to drive a man TO
drink If you wish to retain the al
fections of your husband or sweet
heart, begin your letters on the nrSI
page, turn to the second. continue on
the third and end on the fourth. Your
husband will not only love you for 1t,
but he will regard you as the most
intelligent of your sex. Another rea-
son why you should do so has recent
ly eXpemplified in case IN BROOK
Ign, in which a woman made Will,
the pages of which were numbered In
the remarkable manner noted above
When the will was contested and Went
to the supreme court the judge decided
that the document was Illegal because
it was signed in the middle instead OF
at the end You see, she had skipped
over to the fourth page and gone pack
to the second and there signed 1t! NOW,
if that isn't enough to scare you INTO
writing your letters properly, what
will do it? When you are writing to
woman begin in the middle and end
it is fatal with man and makes MIN
swear. Certainly, you don't want to
be the cause of provoking profanity IN
a good man, do you?
Another thing pertaining to letters
in which women often make a mis-
take Is in making their love letters too
long. Love has been killed before now
by long, long letters. written In an
impossible hand. Cultivate leg1ble
writing, even If it isn't stylish, ana
generations of men will rise up and call
Won blessed If you wish to know
about the handwriting of women ask
some printer, but don't repeat what he
SAYS. because 1t might not sound very
nice. To cultivate. clear handwriting
is a great virtue, and may save you
much trouble some of these days. once
there was a girl who wrote letter Tor
her mother, sending her resignation 10
a club, and the secretary trlea ner
hest to read the letter and the name,
but succeeded in making out the name
signed as that of another member and
took the latteris name off the roll ana
left the name of the other woman on
the list for year and half: InlS
made no end of confusion about dues,
and the woman whose name had been
taken off thought 1t very strange ana
there was much trouble all round. rms
is but a mild instance of the trouble
resulting from illegible writing; so let
ali women under whose eye this screed
happens to fall resolve on the instant
to institute a reform and try. to write
plainly, and begin on the first page and
continue nationally to the others IN
their proper order. You don't know
how increasingly popular you Will be-
come and how soon you will obtain the
respect of your correspondents.

formidable rival to the older estab-

rug, in the sense usually conveyed by
those terms, is no more. The rugs
now sold under the name of Persian
are made, for the most part under
European auspices, and from those
still manufactured independently by
the natives the glory has departed.
Aniline dyes have destroyed their
beautiful colorings, and originality is
dead. Lord Curzon and others have
attributed this condition of affairs to
foreign influence, but the Upholsterer,

in it's opinion, the rugs made under
foreign direction that retain any of
their ancient beauty. These foreign
firms avoid the use of the pernicious
aniline dyes and introduce whatever
there is of originality in Persian rug
making. Through designs are collect
ed from all sources, Persian designs
are employed and ancient patterns
studied, and the weaving is done in
the villages just as anywhere else in
Persia. The rugs are, moreover, pro-
duced in sizes suitable to modern
needs, and any ancient rug in exist
ence can be exactly copied for any
one who wants it. This, in fact, seems
