The Way This Beautiful Fur Is
 Brought to Perfection.
 If lady's sealskin jacket be com pared with the coarse, hard or dry salted sealskin as imported, or, still better, with the coat of the living fur seals, one is struck with the vast diff ference between them
 Passing our fingers among the hairs of the cat or dog, we may notice fine short hairs at the roots of the longer, coarser general covering of the animal This is so called under fur. But in the greater number of these animals the short hairs are so few and often so fine as to be, comparatively speaking, lost sight of among what to our eyes con stitutes the coat
 The operation which the skin under goes to bring out, so to say, the fur may be briefly described as follows:
 The skin, after being washed to rid it of grease and so forth, is laid flat on the stretch, flesh side up. A flat knife Is then passed across the flesh sub stance, thinning it to very consider able extent In doing this, the blade sewers the roots of the long strong hairs, which penetrate the skin deeper than do the soft, delicate ones under the fur. The rough hairs are then got rid of while the fur retains it's hold.
 A variety of subsidiary manlpula- tiOns, in which the pelt is softened and preserved, are next gone through, and then the fur undergoes a process of dyeing which produces that deep uni form tint so well known and admired

Von BuIow's Rebuke.

It so happened that two ladies were making their way to their seats at the very moment Von Bulow finished his introduction of the first movement of Beethoven's Sonata Pathetic" This so irritated him that he purposely com menced the allegro at such an absurdly slow pace as to make the quavers in the bass correspond exactly to the time of the ladies' footsteps. As may be imagined, they felt on thorns and hur- ried on as fast as they could, while Won Bulow accelerated his tempo in sym pathy with their increasing pace.-Bar- nett's Musical "Reminiscences.

Debt Owed to Anti0uity.

Are we indebted to antiquity? Yes, immensely. It is the labor, the expert ence, even the failures of ancestors, that have placed us where we are. We still repeat many of their mistaken eX- periments which they thought wise. It was tentative effort with them, though mistaken, and they did the best they knew. But. on the whole, the world is doing well. It's chief debt to antiquity is in the lessons 1t has learned through which it avoids or may avoid repetition of old errors and absurdities.-Portland OregOnian.
