FAN PAINTING.
A New Pad That Will Be Popnlar
with the l.adlr. ThU
Winter.
A new kind oi fancy work la come
into fashion, and it in one that Is not
likely to bo very common, as it requires
considerable tulent. a ktiowledjre of
painting, and is, besides, very expensive
work. It is the painting: of fans. This
is not exactly new, for fane have been
pnitrtcd on parchment, paper, silk and
transparent material for tome time, but
it is now the fashion to pointon vellum,
parchment or pigakin. Kven better
than any of these is chicken skin, but
this is diffloult to obtain as yet in this
country, and thorn- fan that havo been
finished havo been painted on nUius
that were bought abroad.
The fan should lie of medium size,
not large, but yet lurcher than the em
pire fan that has been fashionable for
so long. The fad is to use two or three
shades of one color for instance, blue
cr brown and the doiijn can be n min
iature with scrollwork about it, some
odd design in arabesque orUrecian pat
tern, or the design on some old fan Day
be copied. Museums arc ransueked and
old books pored over to find designs
that are popular to copy. Some women
who are ambitious and really have tal
ent for this sort of thing have copied
the WatteSU pictures; others have con
tented themselves with much simpler
things; and the trouble is with a very
simple design that it leaves so much of
the skin uncovered, and this requires
most careful toning down in coloring
n most difficult piece of work and as
yet thcfml Is only in its infancy, and
there ate not m:;tiy places where this
accomplishment is taught.
After the fan is painted comes an
other difficulty ; that is the mounting of
it properly. Antique shops furnish rare
specimens of carved ivory, tortoise shell
and mother-of-pearl sticks, and, oi
course, these add greatly to the beauty
of the work; but they will not always
lit the design. The most successful
worker! buy their sticks first then have
the skin cut, or, at all events, marked
out into the proper size, and then pay
some attention to the pattern on the
stick in the design that is painfed.
The. e fans make most charming wed
ding or( hristmas presents, but, it must
be well understood. It takes some time
to finish satisfactorily, aud are, as has
lxren said, expensive. They are not good
for hard wear, but deserve a place in a
cabinet or on a table of fancy trifles.
Undoubtedly there w ill be a great num
ber of then turned out when they are
better kr.own, and when women take
lessons in painting. Every lino of good
work will show to advantage, but, alas!
every incorrc-ot line will also stand out
most conspicuously. Tainting on vel
lum will certHlnly be one of the new
fashions beforo long, not only for such
work na has been described, but for
portfolios, book covers and the thou
sand and ono trifles that go on tho writ
ing desk. Vellum takes colors most sat'
isfactorily, and for aayono who is nr
fist in enougli to blend colors well this
work turns out so that it well repays
the trouble taken in diving it. Of course
slovenly drawing and inharmonious col
t ring will give an amateurish effect
which will rob the work of grace. Har

Abbas II. seems Sent upon making
himself impossible, and in the event of
his deposition becoming necessary the
readiest substitute would appear to be
bis younger brother, who from child
hood upward was always the brighter
and more amiable boy of the two. But
t here is nu alternative worth considera
tion, and that is the restoration of the
old Mussulman succession vested In the
elder brunch of the family. This was
set usido in 18C0 by Sultan Abdull Aziz.
who wus bribed by Viceroy Ismail to
alter the succession to his direct line.
It was then that ho received from his
suzerain the kigb-BOundisg Persian
title of khedlve. By this arbitrary act
Prince Hallm, the only surviving son
of afehemet All, was excluded froiu the
succession in favor of Ismail's son, Tow-
I fik. Hallm, the most liberal and en
lightened member of the family, is
now dead, but his children remain.
The eldest son, Prince Said, who has
received a careful European education.
would be persona grata to the Egyp
tian peopJe, both as the grandson of
Mehemut Ali and as representing a re
turn to the Koranic law of succession.
The present khedlve is tho seventh
ruler of Egypt iu the line of Meheniet
Ali, and the second Abbas. The name
is a sinister one in the Egyptian dy
u sty. The first Abbas, who succeeded
Ibrahim In 1849, lutd a brief roign. but
long enough to make his memory ex
ecrated. Cowardly and cruel, addicted
to the most repugnant form of vice,
he was nssassinated by his own crea
tures in 1854 nt Abbasiyeh, in the pal
uce whose gauut remains still line the
road.
ilis name became a by-word in Egypt,
and the members of the vice regal fam
ily have always discreetly consigned
him to oblivion ns much ns jiossible.
He did not rcsido at the Cairo citadel
like his predecessors, Mehemet Ali and
Ibrahim, but built himself a rambling
palace in the heart of the town, a con
spicuous feature of which Is a lofty
tower, which he used for his hobby of
pigeon flying. Latterly he hid himself

MOSQUITO TIME IN FLORIDA.

ad
I shall never forget the feeling I had
when one of my neighbors said, at the,
beginning of the season: "Oh. well,
there are not many days when you can
not drive into town in the middle of the
day for the mail." I did not understand
her, or scarcely believe her, but I do
now. 1 also know of several ether fam
ilies who fiave regularly prepared for
the mosquito season by laying in a
stock of sewing and rending, and who
riinouuced, when the steason began,
that they did not Intend to go out or to
rccive until It was over; so that prac
tically oil social life is at a standstill,
invitations usually ending with, "weut It
er and mosquitoes permitting." The
moonlight nights in this little corner
of the earth are glorious, but we have
only been able to enjoy them from our
front piazza steps once in nearly two
months, and then only for a brief half
hour, while a strong sea breeze swept
In over the boy; nt the same time,
friends living a mile nway have sat out
on tho piazza, "every evening for a
while."
I am writing of life on the coast of
Florida, more than 300 miles south of
SI. Augustine, and of a part of the coun
try that, in spite of mosquitoes, has n
wonderful future before it, and is al
ready the great truck garden section of
the state for early vegetables and trop
ical fruit, as well as a most delightful
winter resort nnd fishing and hunting
country.
Sitting now nt my front door, behind
a screen of the finest wire work, I can
look out on to one of the most beauti
ful of landscapes, the blue waters of
the bay rippling in the sunshine, the
long leaves or branches of thecocoanut
trees bending and swaying with a pleas
ant rustling, while the crimson blos
soms of the hibiscus hushes are nod
ding good-naturedly over the gray
stones of the wall at the mocking bird
playing hide-and-seek among the gin
ger plants; and just beyond the wall,
on the path leading up from the water,
nnd lordercd on both sides by banana
trees, there comes a man. who hus jsst
landed at the wharf with a string of
lea trout for me; he wears a frame over
his bead covered with mosquito net
ting, and, ns they say here, is
batting I
himself1 with a gTeen branch that I
nw him break from my favorite guava
tree. Of course I shall buy the flsh,
which will cost a mere trifle, but it will
take at least ten minutes to clear the
kitchen cf mosquitoes that will come
in with the sea beauties; for, ns my
fisherman' soys, "they arc very bad this
morning."
If hs wars a visitor he would have to
brush or bs brushed off before he could
enter with the palmetto brush, that
takes the place of the front door bell
during mosquito time; for the brushing
operation is a noisy one. All out-of-door
work must bo attended to in tho
middle of the day, when the mosquitoes
are lees troublesome. Harper's Hazor.

When the prisoner appeared before

was difficult to say what manner of man

OATMEAL FOR BREAKFAST.
The (Ireek traders seem to have had
some knowltdge of oats, ns they termed
thetn bromos.
II Is not known what country first
cultivated the wild oat grass to a con
dition usable for human food, nor is
any reference made to this grain In the
old Testament.
Oatmeal in the olden times was an ex
tremely coarse food, ns the only mean?
of separating husk from groat was
bruising lUndried oats between stones
by hand and afterward winnowing in a
strong breeze.
The phenomenal growth of the oat
meal industry in our country is second
,0 I,on,. when it is noted that ns early
n laoa Tile milling in oats woaa musi
limited affair. The larger proportion
of oatmeal sold here came from Canada
and (irent Britain and it is an amusing
fact that the retail druggists carried
packages of Scotch oatmeal in stock to
nuil the requirements of physicians,
who would prescribe gruel for their
patients made from it.
If our advice wasasked regarding the
consumption of cereals we would give
it emphatically, never eat oatmeal
every morning, but alternute it with
other cereals such as corn, wheat and
ry, which nro manufactured in such
variety of form that you have no need
of duplicating your breukfast food but
nncc in two weeks. It has been defi
nitely shown that, the continuous use
of oatmeal by the Scotch people has
caused more cuses of dyspepsia than
any other known food.

PHOTOGRAPHIC NOTES.
Amateur photographers in Russia are
obliged to secure licenses.
The kite empress of Austria was an
enthusiastic amateur photographer,
and in the course of her wanderings in
European countries made over 1,000
studies of the various types of beauty
that came in her way.
A photographic film 9 miles in
length is eome-whr.t of a novelty, even
in this ngeof liigthings. Threeof these
articles of the size stated are now in
progress of construction for use In a
cinematograph. The cost of these films
is about 200 a mile. Photographic
films can. therefore, now be had per
yard, per acre, or per mile.
One of the latest and most novel, as
well as dkiring, feats of the amateur
photogrnphcr is to take portraits in
profile, and then trim and mount the
same so that tho head is completely
cut away, leaving only the line of pro

IF EE HAD LEFT HIM?
Bait Max Little Stayed by Jerry Maa
aoley and the Sot Ileeamo a
rawer far KlBhtcoaaneaa.
"Do you know Jesus?" was the ques
tion which to unaccustomed ears may
seem abrupt and irreverent.
"And who is He?"
The reply, expressinc; us jnuch de
fiance ns ignorance, was uttered by a
fierce-looking woman on the stairs of
a dirty tenement-house at 17 "Cherry
Hill," New York city, 27 years ago.
The questioner was Mr. Little, a
visitor fiom an uptown church. The
woman had placid herself in his way
and disputed his passage.
In a room nearby lay a drunkard just
awaking from his sodden sleep
Through the partly-open door he
heard the stranger's voice, and gather
ing himself up from the floor, came out
to see who it was. The apparition of
the unshaven "roifgh" in his red shirt
and high-legged loots was so threaten
ing that Mr. Little retreated down
stairs; but the man followed him.
"Say." he culled, hoarsely, "what
name was it you asked that woman
about?"
Mr. Little believed he meant to make
trouble, and his surprise may be imag
ined when the fellow added:
"I used to love that name years ago
When I was in prison but I lost Him.
I wish I knew where I could find Bim."
It was a fact that tiie drunkard was
one of the convicts who had been in
fluenced by the preaching f Orville
Gardner, the converted prize-lighter,
12 yenrs before, in one of the state pris
ons. His reformed life and docile be
havior had shortened his sentence and
(Jov. Dix before his term had expired
pardoned him.
With no offered opening to encourage
the "jailbird" iu honest living, his re
lupse into his old wnys was almost In
evitable. If he had friends of the true
sort, they lost sight of him.
Mr. Little at once returned to the
man and took him to a room in New
Bowery, listened to his Story, treated
him as a brother, and saw hint sign the
pledge.
The next time he met the cx-com ict
three nights afterward the man was
in liquor, and making his way to the
river iu company with a Water street
thief. The mbslorary begged him to
turn back a:'. ;;i to bis home with him,
but he r.li'uud that ho "couldn't
starve,"
"I'll pawn the coat I havo on," said
Mr. Little, "before I'll sec you steal."
The poor fellow looked ut his friend.
"If you are that kind of a friend I'll
die befora I'll steal," he said.
" 'Seek? first the kingdom of God -and
all the rest will be given to you."
Jerry, that's Bible."
"I'll take it," said Jerry; and regard
less of his profane companion's abuse,
hs left him and walked ofT with themis
sionsry. Not only once, bnt five times after
this the "reformed" ex-convict fell
and began again, for Mr. Little would
not leave him. Ho followed him with
his friendly help, and he summoned aid
of his Christian allies, until he saw
him safely on his feet, and standing out
boldly as a professed followerof Christ.
Jerry Mucauley did not fall again.

to his idols; let him alone." Youth's
Companion.
