of the face cards, by the way, carries
in small print the name and address of
the maker There are tiny packs, an
inch and quarter by an inch and
three-quarters in size, which can be
bought on the streets of Naples for a
soldo. These resemble the Spanish
cards to some extent, although the
royalties are more dignifed.
..Cairo is great card emporium, and
Mousky street offers rich returns to
the card hunter Fortune telling cards
must be in demand there, to judge
from the samples l saw in the collec-
ton. The Cairo playing cards come
mostly from Germany. They are bril-
liant in their coloring. The aces carry
scenes from lands both west and east.
1.-The gem of all the packs comes
from Switzerland The cards are
small. one and three-quarters by two
and a half inches in size, and the back
design is the edelweiss. The kings,
queens and jacks are delightful studies
in Swiss costume, and the purchaser
certainly gets his moneys worth, for
each face card has two half figures
quite unlike. On the aces are Swiss
scenes and objects of interest, also two
to a card, the subjects including the
castle of Chillon, the Matterhorn, the
bridge at Lucerne and the Lion of Luz

MUST OBSERVE LAW.

The understanding seems to be that
there is to be no more diily-dallying
on the part of the Interstate Com
MERGE commission about the enforce
ment Of the Hepburn act. The rail
roads have discovered that the Inter
state Commerce commission has uone
in the last year only what was ex-
pected as regards the uniform classi-
fication subject, which has been in
charge of a committee representing
the classification. At the meeting
called for Sept. A in Chicago. matters
which have not been heretofore dis
cussed will be given decisive utter
ance to railroad officials who do not
appear to understand the interstate
act. In other words, the railroads
are ordered by the commission to
show in black and white the rates to
every point their respective lines
reach.

MISS HALE is GUEST OF
MISCELLANEOUS SHOWER
membered by Her Friends
At Milton.

Milton, Ind, Aug. 29-One of the
prettiest social functions of the sum-
mer was the miscellaneous shower CIV
en- in honor of Miss Blanche Hale,
whose marriage to Ernest w. Doty
takes place next Wednesday, Septem-
Der 4th. The hostesses were Mrs. Day
ton H. Warren and Mrs. Alice H.
Gresh, and the affair was given at the
home of the latter Wednesday after
noon. Eighty ladies were invited the
most of whom were present and wear
ing their prettiest summer gowns. The
house decorations were in rainbow COL
ors, forming pretty festoons from the
chandeliers to the corners of the rooms
in dainty way. The floral decora-
lions and the refreshments followed
the color scheme as far as possible.
A feature of the entertainment was
a spider web, the story of which was
told in a poem improvised and read by
Mrs. Herbert n. Bartlett, of Dallas,
Texas, who was one of the guests.
The rainbow threads were followed by
the young ladies and each was reward
ed with a Cupid's bow and arrow. The
white thread of the bride-elect, after
much winding, found its way to the
traditional pot of gold, at the foot of
the rainbow, which contained coin 9TH
er than gold on this occasion. There
were numerous pretty and useful gifts
for Miss Hale, which in future days
will be cherished by her as souvenirs of
happy day. Mrs. Bartlett's poem
follows:
Ho, matrons fair and maidens sweet,
Choose We a color. warm and bright;
Take any tint-the red, the blue,
But leave for Blanche the thread of
white.
A. We who have the colors bright,
Follow your thread. though hard the
way.
You'll find weapon for defense;
Dan Cupid is abroad today.
One of your number has. alas,
Fallen victim to his bow:
Take heed. We maidens. as We pass.
Or he will pierce your heart also.
For Dan cupid, you know, is an ingeni-
Jus IOe.
He takes an advantage whenever he
can.
He'll take from you a heart of gold,
And give in return-only a man.
But Blanche will take the thread of
white.
With courage high and heart so bold
devious ways she must follow
it,
And find at last the pot of gold
She has our best wishes for a happy
life.
All our love for her is yet untold.
A remembrance small we give TO her.
But she gives away-a pot of gold.
May the path be white she treads
along:
All the joys of life for her unfold
Should shadows fall may she ever find
At the rainbow's foot. a pot of gold
