bounded Extravaganza.
Say what you please about the e1-
travagance in these days of women's
dress. 1t cannot compare with the
gowns Of olden times, embroidered in
genuine jewels and fashioned of cost
liest velvet. OF course, such gowns
were not passing fancies or fashions,
but once made, were worn throughout
the owners life on such occasions as
were appropriate. The women Of the
Middle Ages often had their own
arms and those of their husbands EN-.
broidered In gold and jewels on their
robes. Isabella de Valois had a robe
and mantle to match of red velvet
worked with gold birds sitting on
branches formed Of emeralds and
pearls. The trailing robes were
termed cottes-hardies or surcottes,
and were heavy silk in red or blue
tame, and these we're sometimes
veined. Their arms were embroid-
cred on them in silver and gold
thread. The wearer's own arms were
done on the left or sinister side,
impaled by her husbands, the latter
being on the dexter or righ. side.
Sometimes the arms Of the wife only
appeared on her robe. and her hus-
bands were embroidered on her
mantle. Ths most costly material
then known was used for these man.
ties. most OF them being fashioned Of
samite or baudeskin, silk woven with
an admixture of gold thread. Women
OF other than taintless character wero
forbidden to wear these mantles on
the street. In the thirteenth century
women Of noble birth wore robes en-
broidered in birds. fish, flowers and
all sorts of emblems. all in the most
costly workmanship.

Bishop Dudley was preparing for his
return home he invited the old man tc
visit Louisville, so that he might hear
him preach.

some Sunday. III see that you get a
good seat in front"
The old man availed- himself Of the
invitation thus extended. At the con
clusiOn of the service he quickly
sought out his friend, the bishop, and
grasped him by the hand.
Mr. Bishop" he cried enthusi-
astically, Il don't know much about
your creeds and dogmatics, but | riz

Watching Bees at WORK.

many years, and recently ants nests
have been on view at the Crystal Pal
ace, London; now, a firm in London

called "The Lubbock FOrmicerium,
which is really a portable ants nest,
which can be moved anywhere with
out trouble or Inconvenience and
which, it is claimed, win last for 10.
ward Of six years with ordinary care.
The species selected is the small yel-
low ant, Formica flava, and the nest is
inclosed in a frame ten inches square,
resembling a picture frame, except
that it must, of course, be laid fat and
the cover must be kept over it except
when the ants are under observation.
The nest contains ants in their various
stages, and some of the other insects
which are associated with or without
a queen, and accompanied by full di-
rections as to management. This nov
city has attracted much attention and
visitors show much interest in the eX'

ONLY WAY TO GET IT.
Woman Had to Take Lawyer Along
With Her DAMAGES.

Mrs. Stonewall Jackson, widow OF
the famous general, lives in Charlotte
N. c., and the other day Charlotte
lawyer said of her:
Mrs. Jackson has great talent in
persif1age and raillery, and she likes
much to air her skill in this direction
at the expense of doctors and lawyers,
She said to me one day:
"A friend of mine-a Virginia wom-
an-sued railroad company last year
for $4,000 damages, and last week tho
case was decided in her favor. She
got the money in toto. She got every
cent of it. 1t is all lying to her credit
in the bank at this moment
Mrs. Jackson paused and smiled.
"'You think it is incredible, she
said, that the woman should have
gotten all those thousands. You think
that her lawyer, in sending her a
check for the money would have de.
Quoted $4,000 or $35 600 for his share
Well the woman got all the money.
The lawyer didn't get cent. She got
it all. She got it in the only way
What way was that?' said |.
"'She married the lawyer said Mrs
Jackson"
