made practice of borrowing 800 of the

Last summer, however. Mr.. Murphy
heard from him as follows: Dear Tim
This summer I've decided to reverse mat

inclose herewith 800 for you to keep for
me for rainy day"
But the comedian didn't find the money
He looked on the floor. under the table, in
the envelope. Nowhere could he find it.
Then he accidentally turned the letter over

Trades for Clergynren.
From Leslie,s Weekly.


One cannot question the practical good
sense of the advice give. to candidates for
the ministry by prominent Philadelphia
clergyman in urging them to learn some
trade either before or after their ordination
He has examined the statistics of the yari-
Gus Protestant denominations, and has been
appalled, by the number of ministers who
are without a charge. He thinks that a
trade would be good thing to fall back on
in such cases, besides standing the preacher
in good stead in many ways while still in
the pulpit. The advice Is applicable to men
entering almost any of the learned profess
sions. but particularly so to clergymen, who
run greater risks apparently than any class
of professionals of being laid off, from
their regular line of work. Most of the
large denominations have a fund to pro-
vide for their superannuated clergy, but
the stipends awarded are usually too mea-
ger to do more than pay for the barest ne
cessities of life.

Those followers of the playhouse who are
weary and heavy laden-who feel the loss
of youths vigor and see beauty only in
what might be or what has been-would do
well to revert their attention to the prov
nces from which they sprung. Note, for
instance. what was passed across to Peoria
the other day:
Dare Devil Dorothy is in four acts,
and the scenes are located in England and
Australia. Some very novel scenic effects
are introduced. and the performance from
beginning to end is something new for the
American theater. Dare Devil Dorothy
has been famous in England for the past
four years. but it is only this season that it
was possible to secure the play for this
country. Thursday night next will be the
only opportunity for our playgoers to see
the attraction in this city. Miss Grace Glib

For general school wear frocks and
suits of marked simplicity are the cor
rect styles for both young and older
school girls.
Dresses that are worn under long
coats are of lightweight serge, canvas,
Henriette cloth, cashmere, mohair or
other thin wooden material, but if a
short coat and skirt suit is used for
school it is of heavier goods and usual
ly of mixed colors.
For girls of fifteen or over shirt
waist suits are popular made of dark
blue, brown, green or red, which are
trimmed only by dainty turnover col
lars and cuffs Of white crash en-
broidered in corresponding colors.
These sets of collar and cuffs are, by
the way, so easily made that any girl
could make them for herself, and as
their charm, of course, lies in being
fresh and clean, numerous sets are
needed and so 1t is a great saving to
make them at home. The sets stamped
with pretty design may be bought at
all the large shops for from Is to 25
cents, and as the silks or crewels to
work them cost only a few cents more
1t will be seen that much money can
be saved in this way.

red wooden canvas. 1t is made with a
round skirt laid in plaits both In front

The passing of the round muff. the

of ourselves, has come No more may
we have new Innings and a fresh ap-
pearance for the circular muff. The
introduction of the fiat or pillow muff
this season has been a success, and
thus the goddess Of fashion has at last
changed the only thing in woman's
wear that has remained undisturbed
for almost century. tits now the flat
or pillow muff, and 1t certainly seems
to have usefulness, beauty and grace.
1t gives many possibilities for elabor-
ate ornaments and for use with even
ing toilets. 1t Is lighter and easier to
carry and clings to the body, where its
round predecessor never did fit any ex-
cept the very stout. Not since the
year 1880 has the fiat muff been car
ried, and then only those who took to
the extreme fashion used them. The
round muff had a claim on the wearers
that could not be shaken. This year
the new or 1880 style again appears,
and is being worn universally, for the
dance, English and French as well as
the American women realize it has
lines of beauty never possessed by the
substantial round muff.
