Cracow possesses the most pictur.

as the fourteenth century a large
part Of its population consisted OF
Jews driven from Germany owing to
the prosecutions inflicted on them
Certain quarters of the city were as
signed to the refugees; but, being
pushed from these in course Of time
by the growth Of Christian population,
they chose the suburb of Kazimiers
for their habitation, and founded an
almost purely Jewish community
There they still have their old syna'
gogues Zone of which dates back 500
years., and their own hospitals and
schools. They dress in the same way
as their forefathsrs, and speak among
themselves bewildering mixture OF
Hebrew, German and Polish.

The Long Engagement.

Long engagements are an Injustice
to the girl, and the man, too. It cuts
her off from her man friends entirely,
and unless "the" man happens to have
extraordinary powers Of entertain
ment, unhappiness is almost certain to
follow. Not that a girl should be
amused all the time, or the man eth
er, but memories will recur, and after
a long time spent in useless waiting
with no prospects Of change, thoughts
of the others are bound to creep in.
A man is bound, hand and foot, by a
long engagement. He cannot force
success or make an opportunity out
of the empty air, yet the thought OF
the girl drives him on-sometimes to
desperate measures. OF the two, it
would be better to keep the. engage
ment a secret, and not to see each 9th
er too observation-disclosures.

The Hearts In Men.

Two riverfront wanderers uncere3

cue an unfortunate woman who took
her own life. Whether or not these
men were outcasts we cannot know:
The report didn't attempt to furnish
a description of them. But little as
their own lives might be worth, they
did not hesitate to offer what they
had. On the river front one may daily
see little evidences Of heroism among
the discarded members Of society and
the refuse of humanity. Under tat
tered clothes and scared features
beats many heart which would free

unfortunate. A child falls in the river
and it is rare day when a dozen

DRESS TRIMMINGS ALL LIKE
Season Seems to Be Ore for Which
"Freshening Over" Is De-
clared Allowable.

Dressmakers predict that this sea-
son will be "make-over" season,
which means that new trimmings will
be brought into extensive use as a
means of freshening up. Trimmings
of fur bands will be much used, espe-
cially of beaver, monkey, ermine,
skunk, fitch, etc. Ermine is used on
fine laces, together with spangles, jet,
metal lace, etc. For instance, monkey
hair is used on a green chiffon tunic
over green satin skirt. Light wool
afternoon frocks for young persons
are trimmed with brown fur bands on
the wrists, edge of the tunic and V
neck.
Tinsel bands, lace, spangles and silk
and beaded etassels are worn. Jet,
opalescent and silvered spangles are
used to ornament lace bands and
founces, and also to decorate nets.
these nets are also ornamented with
metal flowers and scrolls, and EN-.
broidered with beaded embroidery
around the neck outlining V, with
an edge of jet also on the tunic. When
black velvet ribbon bands are used
as trimming they are edged with jet
: sequins.
All-over silver lace bodices for eve
ming wear have a satin girdle edged
with fur. Tunics Of the same have a
tiny edge like piping of fur.

Golden Invitations,

A successful Moscow merchant
named Spiridonow, who had made a
vast fortune, thought Of q novel way
Of inviting the guests to fssSgolden
wedding. The invitations we're en-
graved on golden cards. When the
recipients opened the envelopes, they
were naturally pleased with the beau
iful invitation, but supposed that they
were only gtlded. A closer examina-
ton, however, showed that the mil
lionaire had actually sent out cards
of real gold. Mons. Spiridonow
sent in all 200 invitations. The cards
were made by Moscow jeweler
by special process, and the
material was taken from mine owned
by the millionaire. Each card was
worth about s25.

Historic Partisan Square.

Before the Revolution the Place de
la Concorde in Paris was but piece
of waste ground. 1t was often used
for public festivals and demonstra-
tions, and in this manner its baptism
of blood was begun as early as ITO.
In May of that year an exhibition of
fireworks was being given to cele-
brate the nuptials of the Dauphin and
Marie Antoinette (note the irony of
fate: 20 years later, as the deposed
king and queen Of France, both were
beheaded upon this very spot!) when a
panic was occasioned by an accidental
discharge of rockets and more than
twelve hundred persons were crushed
to death.

The Readino of Books.

OF one thing l feel quite certain,
that the reading of good literature is
necessary to the growth Of the mind
and the Strengthening Of character
especially in young people, and that
there is no resource for all periods OF
life so helpful, so satisfying, and SO
enduring as a love of good books.
Claiming well says: "God be thanked
for books. They are the voices Of the
distant and the dead, and make us
heirs of the spiritual life of past ages.

Most Famous Spot In France.

The guide books tell us that the
Place de la Concorde is the most ex-
tensive and strikingly handsome
place" in Paris. This is entirely
true, but it is only another way of
saying that it is the most beautiful
and impressive open square pos,
sessed by any city in the world. And
this is not all. Within its bounds
more great events have taken place,
more history has been written in
blood than within any other similar
compass. Here, January 21, 1873,
the head of Louis XVI fell under the
knife of the guillotine, the beginning
OF that long procession that ended
only when the revolution had finished

Hortense, the consul's beautiful step
