a frame with light strips of wood at

end of a twelve-inch strip at each side
of the casing and fasten a cross-piece
between them at the outer end. To the
ground underneath stake the end Of a

this is the most serviceable of all silks,
even rivaling the harder pongee. which
is not it's equal for "dressiness." A mar

up over a waistcoat of plain satin in the

Feat Of Skill Manuel's Test.

On the eve OF his forthcoming mar
rage to Princess Augustine Victoria
of Hohenzollern, ex-King Manuel Of
Portugal will be required TO perform a
feat of skill that will tell of what
timber he is made. 1t Is not UNDER
stood what relation it bears to desira-
BILE requisites in a husband, yet in the
locality where the performance is con
sidered in order. the prospective BRIDE
groom who gets through it gracefully
is supposed to make a good life part
ner. The ex-king. on his wedding eve,
at Sigmaringen. will be compelled, by
a custom which has been in vogue for
many hundreds of years past to sub
nit to queer little ceremony in the
town of Sigmaringen. Like all other
bridegrooms- elect. no matter whether
prince or peasant, he will be required
to bestride "A pole. borne shoulder high.
and will thus be carried several times
around the ancient fountain In the
center of the town. scattering cakes
and bonbons to the people on either
side. 1t is not easy TO keep ones bal
ance while engaged In this manner,
and Manuel, who has obviously not
been any too we'll balanced on terra
firma, will be watched on this occa-
sion with interest.
