Henry Jones happily meet this re-

ton OF intellect and; moral Qualities
which constitutes useful citizen.
His al s{ llrld erstanding was lucid and dis
crininatings his Imagination fertile
and 'rer1aIk ably chaste. While his
heart he was susceptible. Of strong and
tender emotions His habit or reas-

and his taste uncommonly pure and
classical. % He felt a disgust for all
affected grandeur and tioridness Of
language to 4everything which say

style was simple, neat, perspicuous
and dignifed. Suited to convey to his
hearers the clear and orderly concep-
LIONS OF his. own cultivated Z, mind.
he was endowed with an instructive
d1scernment of what was lust and
proper, whether in thought or. ex-
preston In respect Ito both words
and phrases, he employed, and to
their arrangement and sense, he af.

he would inquire not only whether It
WAS good in itself but whether II
WAS practical. 1T was by no means
uncommon for those who associat sd
with him in important public trans-
taetl ons to distrust their own opinions
as soon as they found it to be differ
ent from his. He exhibited polite
mess wit bout affectation, dignity with.
out pride, and strict adherence I to
rules Of order without pertinactty.

Hand SIGNALS Used by Fireman.

A code of hand signals. which ap-
pears to be something similar to the
"tic-tac" operations of the race course
tout. has been adopted by the Edin.
burgh fire brigade. 1t is supposed to
be the only brigade in possession of
such a system. The uses are apparent
when fireman finds himself isolated
in the upper part Of, say. tall tene.
ment. Leaning out Of the window, he
could signal to his colleagues in the
street that the fire escape was re.
Quired. or that another line of hose
should be brought into use. Then.
again, a fireman posted on the roof
could signal below that another
steamer should be telephoned for, or.
perhaps, second hose-tender, under
circumstances when the loudest shout
would b. vithout avail.

Oriental Silks.

Oriental silks have a way of coming
in on the market and meeting with
popular favor because of their genuine
oddity among fabrics. They are al.
ways sought by persons who look for
the exclusive patterns and this is
possible among oriental silks where
two patterns may be alike. but of diff.
ferent colors. The trimmings for such
are plain silks, soutache and crochet
buttons. One of the dashing dresses
constructed of this material was a
brick red, with clouded effect. 1t was
trimmed with black-red grosgrain
silk and an edging of black soutache
in sawtooth fashion for bands. The
dress was very good example of
what can be produced with a foreign
silk.
