Adam got his rich, beautiful and from the ruins of the relief upon “He employed no less personages than Angelica Kaufman and Zucehi to paint many of the panels and medallions let into his ceilings, and it was his habit to have carpets woven to match the pattern overhead and harmonize with the color there employed. The key- note of Adam's style is ‘movement,’ combined with perfect artistic fitness, and it is peculiar for its grace and stateliness.”—-New York Tribune. QUITE FOGGY. it Must Have Been Pretty Thick Back In the Old Days. “Yaas, it's foggy—quite foggy,” sald Hezekiah Torpyhue, filling his pipe and puffing vigorously on the stem. “But it ain’t nothin’ to the fog we had back in seventy-nine. By gorry, boys, but that was a fog, an’ no mistake! Why, it was so thick that when I went out to the barn one night to feed the ani- mals I had to git three o’ the farm hands to come along behind me an’ push me through it.” “Yaas,” sald Hiram Wigley, the egg king, “that was some fog. 1 remember that there seventy-nine affair very well, but it warn't a marker slongside o’ the two we had in seventy-eight, when me an’ Joe Silisbee had to take a plow to cut our way through to the henhouse, an’, by ginger, when we of ’em laid eggs right on to it like as though it was made o' hay, b'gosh!” “Yaas,” put in old Granther Smoggs, the village patriarch, “them there two fogs was dundles, an’ everything you fellers says about ‘em is gospel trewth, but fer real fog ye'd oughter been back in my young days. they was solld, them days. boys used to set on the fence front o' the little chapel an’ fog outen ‘em an’ peg ‘em at people as they went by. Seems to The Don's Opinion. Fashion is as inexorable in men's as in women’s dress. The undergraduate is perhaps the most telling example of this. It was so even a century ago, when Oxford led the way in adopting the new nankeen trousers that were to supersede tight breeches and top boots. Just about that period a don of Trinity met an undergraduate arrayed in all the splendor of the new fashion. “Young man,” said the don severely, “you will come to no good. You wear nankeen trousers and keep a dog.” The young man afterward became Dr. Sumner and bishop of Winchester.— London Chronicle. Interested.

The Lady Told Him What More He Could Have Said. “I am going to tell you the truth about yourself,” he said. “Go on,” said the young and ambli- tious actress. “1 have in my time had rare oppor- tunities to observe beautiful, graceful and talented women, and I violate no confidence in saying that you are the to triumph over every obstacle. So su- preme are you that you have the right to rise above all conventionalities, to marry, to love, to discard whom you please, and no one will dare to criti- cise. Your work will live. You are the very personification of the highest art. United with this your perfection of beauty gives you the just title to a lasting fame.” “Is all that true?” she asked softly. “Absolutely. Would you have me say more? What more could I say?” She sighed. “You might,” she answered, “have mentioned my clothes and my figure.” —Puck. Disinterested. Lord Monboddo, an eminent member of the Scotch judiciary and one of the clear cut figures in Boswell’s immortal “Life of Johnson,” was a great beau in his youth and in his later years a brilliant and learned if whimsical man. He was a friend of the Garricks and one day was thelr guest at their villa at Hampton Court when Hannah More was also visiting there. They were walking together in the garden when his lordship astonished the fair and sprightly Hannah by a declaration of love and an offer of his heart and hand. Meeting with a positive refusal, he soon returned to the house and made a clean breast of it to Mrs. Gar- rick. “] am very sorry for this refusal” he said in conclusion. “I should have liked so much to teach that nice girl Greek.” President Roosevelt in “Old Hickory's” Home. In she old diving-room of the Hermitage, he sat at Old Hickory's table aud an aged lady banded him a cup of coffee. The la- dy was Old Hickory's granddaughter, Mra. Rachel Jackson Lawrence.

On the table was the famous Desatar sil- ver, presented by Commodore Decatar to General Jackson. Suddenly Mrs. Lawrence, with a sweet, old-fashioned courtesy, presented the presi deut with a heavy solid silver teaspoon marked with General Jackeou's initials. She said : “This spoon is one of the set bought hy General Jackson in 1832 and constantly used by him both in the White House and Hermitage. I desire yon to accepts is, sir, from me. It is genuine and is one of the few relics shat I now have to bestow.” The ent was delighted. “Madam,” said he, ‘‘I ehall treasnre it carefully as long as I live, and band it down to receive the same appreciation, I trust, from my children.” Upon the tomb of Old Hickory the presi- dens laid a wreath of palm leaves, sens from the White House conservatories.
