Richmond Mr Dyer In introducing his
subject alluded 30 the fact that Ameri-

dates back ~ wears but OF late wears II
has experienced a revival Of interest as
witness the superb collection OF Monet's
pictures in Boston.
Mr.. Dyer then gave a brief account
OF the chief incidents In the life OF Monet
and of conditions existing I'm France at
the time Of the impressionist movement
stating that France was an out ridden
country governed by the academy. and
that out OF the tradition ridden echool
arose the Barbizon and other schools.
Two OF the, principles which governed
Monet's work. he said. were that the
atmosphere changing az n does every mo-
ment, changes the color OF every thing
IN nature. and that the lighter and bright
er the sunlight the lighter the shadows.
and further that anything IN nature
which interests the eve 10 rest upon IN
A. material for a picture.
Mr. Dyer told 81 the struggle of Monet
and his contemporaries TO win recogni-
tion. and how finally the great art dealer
Durand Ruel bought their pictures and
put Monet on his feet. and how the artist
retired 10 Giveney on the Seine. where he
surrounded himself with a beautiful gar
den and where he has painted some of his
most beautiful pictures.
Mr. DYER traced the development OF
Monets art as seen In the pictures at
Copley hall from the FIRST old-fashioned

EXCITEMENT CAUSES "JAes.p
Emotionalism Is as intoxicating as
Strong Drink.

| From the New Orleans Times Democrat
Yes; in my opinion, 1t Is quite possible
for man to become intoxicated In mo-
ments of great excitement, and sometimes
a man will become just as drunk as he
would If he enptied the contents of a
gallon Jug" said the observant man,
though 1t is, from my observation, very
rare to find man who will lose control of
his legs in cases of the sort Crowds, with
the excitements that go along with these
gatherings, the noise and hurry and all
that sort of thing, will make some men
drunk just as readily as booze. We have

are just about as drunk as you can be.
Rapidly moving street cars will have the
same effect on some persons. The tenn

much to do with the degree of drunken

1.-THE HOUR LUNCHEON"

An eastern catering firm, which makes
a specially of planning luneheons." ac-
cording to the New York Sun, has de-
vised the hour luncheon preceding a mat
inee party. The favors are small hour
glasses. of as inexpensive design as one
can find, or not. just as one pleases. Be
fore the guests assemble the glass is laid
ON its side, and as eGeh guest takes her
place she turns the glass so that the sand
begins to run. As the last grain passes
through, each person arises, whether she
has finished or not, takes her hour glass
with her and proceeds to put on her hat,
As there is always more or less difference
in glasses, great fun is bound to attend
the winding up of the luncheon; at some
prizes have been given to the first and
last to leave the dining room.
attractive little conceits for favors
may be homemade, however, just as well
as they may come from the shops which
make a business of designing them, and
for which they charge accordingly. AT
the house of an especially enterprising
woman whose means are far from large,
yet to whose invitations there are per-
haps fewer regrets than TO most women s.
one always finds something new in the
way of favors or decorations. and one is
always told that they are homemade.
This woman recently gave dinner,
which was distinguished both for its sim
plcty of menu and the elaborateness of
the table dressing, no. the least part of
which was composed of the favors In
the center was a pole, fully five feet high
from which, reaching to each plate was
a pink ribbon. Attached to the end OF
each ribbon was a pretty little Dresden
china basket. with punches of small roses
tied to the handle, and the basket was
filled with eandied rose leaves. Stuck in
each basket was the name card, and as
each guest found his or her name the
request was made TO wait, before being
seated, until all were ready.
when this occurred the hostess asked
that each person would take the seat ex-
actly opposite the one where the place
card was originally found, and in doing
so walk to the left. When this was
done the pole IN the middle of the table
looked for all the world exactly like a
Maypole. At the end of the dinner the
little baskets with the ribbons attached,
were taken home by the guests"

From the New York Herald.
The length of time man has been known
to inhabit this earth has been proved to be
5000 years A. M. Amenlineau has issued
the first volume of the history of his ex-
cavations at Abydos, the sacred residence
of Osiris. Here he has found prehistoric

that they date back 5000 years. Forum

closely allied to life that he would have

were placed beside him in his tomb. and
from them the nineteenth century explor-
er can tell how the people of the year
60c0 B. c. lived, what they ate, how they
dressed and what was the range of mind
and civilization in that ancient time.
| Cereals like wheat and rye prove the

tusks formed these legs. were hunted by
these early Egyptians.
