OUCH weather as has afflicted Paris
- this winter leaves little cause for
surprise that the southern winter
resorts are unusually well patronized;
but even the Riviera has had its touch
OF unexpected cold, while at that mo-
ment Paris was rejoicing in sunshine,
with just cold enough to make skating
enjoyable, and the cold weather skating
and walking costumes are a treat to see.
These short-skirted suits Of fur trimmed
cloth show mass Of frills on the I'M
derskirts, frills that shade from deep

are well fitted over the hips, and full be-
low the knees; and the high fitted girdle
shows below a smart little bolero or
Eton which is worn over a separate
white waist. The sleeves are full to the
elbow, then button to the wrist Small
toques and turbans are worn with these
suits, and invariably the smartest of
shining colt boots, very sensible and
comfortable of shape in spite of their
smartness.
Mohair Promenade Costumes.
In the dressmaking rooms here all

Mrs. r.
There are special laws that govern
the application of color which should
always be chosen with reference to the
quantity and quality Of light which
pervades the room. A north room needs
bright, warm treatment--reds, golden
browns and yellows-and room with
a southern outlook requires cool, light
colors,. such as pale blues, spring green's
and silvery gray tones.
The number, size and position Of the
windows will greatly affect the intensi-

American sobriety.

LONDON. Jan. 12.-Lady Falmouth
has attracted general comment ana
praise by a letter to the press in which
she tells how she was struck during
the recent visit to the United States
by the higher standard of sobriety pre-
vailing there and the total absence of
the poor drink sodden looking beings
too frequently seen in England
Her Iadyship's Investigations led ner
to suppose that this higher standard
was at least partly due to the instruc-
ton in hygiene and temperance in al
most all the elementary schools in
America. She urges that the study of
similar subjects be made compulsory
in the British educational department.
1t is remem bered in this connection
that on July II Lord Londonderry
urged the same reform in a petition
signed by over $1,000 medical men.

FOR PRISON

PITTSBURG, Jan. 12.-With only five
guards to keep them in line, with no
sentries on the prison walls, the 900
convicts in Riverside penitentiary to-
day practically had the freedom of the
prison, the occasion being the formal
opening of the new $4,000 conservatory
given to the prison by Henry Phipps
and which was intended as a Christ
mas gift, but which was not completed
at the time
Murderers and life term men were
among the criminals who. for the tire
being, seemed only a step from free
dom, and many of the $50 invite ID
guests shivered when it was seen that
only handful of guards attended the
desperadoes.
However, there was no outbreak, and
the prisoners seemed to enjoy their
walk through the big conservatory, and
later choir chosen from the male
prisoners, accompanied by a band,
went TO the wing occupied by the W.
men prisoners and serenaded them.

The interest that responsible young

of the Scots alone. He voiced pro-

the growth of civilization. Like many
another to whom God has given the
poet's gift, he held a torch to light the
way along the dark river of humanity
that was to come after him
That he felt, and felt deeply the
reverence that must be in the soul Of
the true poet is shown in his response
to the cotter's summons to worship;
IAN atheists laughs poor exchange
For deity offended"
Robert Burns was born on the 25th
of January, 1859, in a cottage about
two miles from Ayr, the eldest son of
a small farmer, William Burmese, OF
Kincardineshire stock, who worked
hard, was a man of integrity, wished
to bring up his children in the fear of
God. but had to fight all his days
against a strong tide of adversely.
Says Carlyle, the best biographer of
Burns: THE poet was fortunate in his
father man of thoughtful, intense
character, as the best of our peasants
are, valuing knowledge, possessing
some. and open-minded for more. Had
he been ever SO little richer, the whole
poverty sunk the whole family even
below the reach of our cheap schools,
and Burns remained a hard-worked
plough boy"
Although poverty may have been
needed to ripen his genius, it ruined
his health and led him to give way to
which largely wrecked his
life And yet, out of that wreck has
come the voice that Will live as long
as the world holds its way through
space-the voice that is the voice for
all times and all men.
Burns had written his first verses of
note when he went to Irvine in 1871 to
learn his trade as a fax dresser. 1t
was an unlucky affair. During a New
Year carousal, the shop took fire and
Burns, to use his own words, was
left, like a true poet, without a six
pence" From that time forward with
varying fortune, he followed the light
that was in him, until the current of
his life was finally turned by the sue
cess of his first volume, which was
published at Kilmarnock in June, 1856.
His literary triumph was instantane-
Gus, taking the country by storm, and
he was at once given place among the
literati of Edinburgh. He died on the
25th of July. 1896.

MEDIAEVAL RUSSIA.

! one of the manifold curses of Rus
STA is its ducal aristocracy; another is
it's priesthood Combined they stand
massed in the way of progress and they
steal from every Golfer, corrupting the
public service, impoverishing the mid
die classes and expressing and plum
dering the poor. The Emperor himself
is not so bad a man. He has dreams
and visions of doing good and it was
he who tried to organize peace at The
Hague. Yet, while in almost undis-
puted mastery of the common people,
he is but a slave in the hands of the
Grand Dukes and of reactionaries like
Pobedonetzeh, the Procurator of the
Holy Synod. They govern; the Gar
reigns; and the Car knows that if he
does not reign to please his masterful
councillors some way will be found to
rid the world of him and put pulling
infant on the throne.
The situation as it stands shows how
far Russia has Jagged in the path of
civilization. The basic facts about
her present history are those or
medieval Europe. When one hears of
a State where the aristocracy lives by
plumber, supported by a rich and AFRO
CANT church prospecting through the
superstitions it spreads among the
and keeping those masses igno-
rant of the world about them SO that
no ferment of intellectual forces, no ex
amples of victorious free peoples may
disturb the vested tenure of the rulers
when one hears of these things we
say, the mind turns back to the
Europe of the Middle Ages. The story
of Russia cannot be associated with
the Europe of the present day. It is
of the fifteenth and not of the twenti-
eth century. It belongs to the time of
Louis XII not of Victoria and Edward, !
of Loubet and Roosevelt, of WiIhel- |
nina, of Christian and Oscar.
But the people of Russia, hindered |
in development though they have been, |
have come nearer our day. They are
close to the time of Robespierre and !
Marat, of the guillotine and of the great
assize in which the causes of man
hood are tried as by fire. It is a
bloody period but it is close to the
beginning of a nobler century; but as
he final results of the French Revolu-
ion have been described as IAN I'M
