It Is in the details that
clothes quality shows. All
coats are pretty much
aliKe in general plan.
They all have bacKs and
fronts and sleeves and
collars.
The Fifth Avenue tailor
g'ets a hundred dollars
per suit for his clothes,
because of the perfection
of detail. The collar hugs
tha necK, the lapels lie
smooth and flat, the
shoulders have a shapely
form and hold it, the
front is braced with hair
cloth and canvas, and
does not LreaK or sag.
The buttons stay on and
the bu! tonlioles are stead
fast. PocUets are rein
forced and do not teav
down.
Well dressed men like
these thing's and so the
tailor gets his price.
Now Clothcraft Clothes
are designed and built on
the Fifth Avenue plan, but
not at the Fifth Avenue
price. Every detail has
I attention and you will
find in the set of the
collar, the shape of the
shoulder, the hang of the

burying the leg of a lamb In the loose
earth, but desisted when he saw the
eyes of all his mates were upon him,

Anlinnls In Art.
"Sheep are in strong demand In the
picture market," said the malinger of u
department store art gallery. "If I
were n painter of animal studies I
would conline my work entirely to pic
tures of sheep. Tliey sell better than
any other animal pictures. I suppose
the reason is that sheep lend them
selves to more urtlstlc poses than oth
er quadruped sulijects. They can be
more effectively grouped, and the con
tour of their bodies Is In soft and
rounded Hues well adapted to artistic
work. Then sentiment is a factor In
the popularity of these pictures. The
women and children always are at
tracted by them, especially by pictures
of sheep lost in a storm, which appeal
to their sympathies. Cows are a poor
second to sheep in popularity, nnd the
demand for horses Is very light. The
horse Is a somewhat conventional sub
ject and one very dillicult to portray
artistically, while the sheep can be
easily nnd effectively Introduced Into a
picture." Philadelphia Record.

Yen Shili was brought into his presence
to entertain him nnd the ladles of his
court. Yen Shlji had some automatic
figures which not only were capable of
dancing, but of accompanying . their
movements with song.
During the performance the puppets
cast such significant gktnccs toward the
ladies that the emperor became angry
and ordered the execution of the orig
inator of the play. The mechanic rip
ped open the puppets and proved to his
astonished majesty that they were ar
tificial. Instead of being executed Yen
Shih was allowed to repeat the per
formance, which corresponds to runch

EASTER CUSTOMS.
Carton Observances of the Paat mmt
Present In England.
Some of the old liuster customs in
England are curiously barbaric, aud
even ut the present time the observ
ance of this particular festival Is sur
rounded with more or less superstition,
just enough to lend to It the charm of
mystery.
Twentieth century maidens don
bright yellow garters, Becure In their
belief that they will be engaged before
the year ends. Others give their tresses
"a hundred strokes three times" with
the brush while thinking Intently of
their heart's desire. And who does not
take good care to wear their now
things on Easter day?
Among the earliest of Easter cus
toms are the following:
At Queen's college, Oxford, a herring
placed by the cook to simulate a man
on horseback Is set on a corn salad and
brought to the table. This 'Is supposed
to represent a red herring riding away
on horseback and Is the last vestige of
the once popular pageants of rejoicing
for the entl of the Lenten fast.
It was erstwhile a habit in English
towns for the boys after the Easter
service to run Into the street nnd
snatch the buckles from the shoes of
the girls whom they were able to catch.
Easter Monday, however, It was turn
about, nnd the women chased the men.
If the men refused to pay a sixpence
or happened to wear boo' he women
tried to snatch their hav . d to re
cover n hat cost a sixpence. '
In some old towns grent cakes were
brought to church nnd there divided
among the young people.
A singular Easter custom was that
of "lifting and weaving." A innn sit
ting contentedly In his home was sur
prised by the servants nnd women of
his household, who entered bearing a
great armchair lined with white and
decorated with ribbons nnd favors.
The man was forced to sit In the chnlr
nnd be lifted by the women, to each of
whom he must give n sixpence. On a
day In Easter week, either Monday or
Tuesday, the man lifted the women
with similar attendant ceremonies.
Edward I. was lifted In his bed by
his ladles and maids of honor, and a
record shows the payment made by
him to have been some $2,000 In six
pences. ' In older days In England monks at
Easter acted plays In churches, the fa
vorite subject being the resurrection.
Not only were these plays enncfed in
the churches on these festival days, but
there was dancing, particularly In the
French cathedrals.
. Even the sun. It is said, dances on
Enstor day.
In Ireland grent preparations were
made for the last day of Lent. Holy
Saturday, nhout 0 o'clock, a hen nnd n
piece of bacon were put In the pot, nnd
nt 12 there' were eating nnd much mer
rymaking. At 4 nil roie to see the sun
dance In honor ef the resurrection.
Your Habitant Expression.
What kind of nn expression do you
wear habitually? Is It sour, morose,
repj-llcnt? Is It a mean, stingy, con
temptible, uncharitable, Intolerant ex
pression? Do you wear the expression
of n bulldog, n grasping, greedy, hun
gry expression, which indicates an
avaricious nature? Do you go about
among yonr. employees with a thunder
cloud expression, with a melancholy,
despondent, hopeless look on your face,
or do you wear the sunshine expres
sion which radiates good cheei and
ho'io. which Indicates a feeling of good
will and of helpfulness? Do people
smile nnd look happier when you ap
proach them, or do they shrink from
you and feel n chilly goose flesh sensa
tion come over them as they see you
approach?
It makes all the difference In the
world to you nnd to those whom you
influence what kind of an expression
you wear. Orison Swett Marden in
Success Magazine.
Red Hair.
When red hair makes its appearance
on a humnu head all lukewarmness is
at nu cud. It is either loved or loathed.
Its admirers, with artists In the van,
are almost hysterically enthusiastic.
They call It golden, though the gold
that comes out of the enrth Is not often
exactly that shade. A red haired wo
man is sure of a success in some quar
ter, however plain her face or Insignifi
cant her figure. The detractors of red
hair say It Is a Bign' of bad temper or
Immorality or both and therefore to be
scrupulously avoided London Queen.
Dirty Waihlni.
Natives of Morocco think that Euro
peans aud Americans are dirty. The
habit to which they object Is that of
washing the bauds or face in a basin
and, still more, taking a bath where the
water is not running. The cleaner the
bather becomes, they say. the dirtier
ttlie water he is washing with must
necessarily become. And eventually
the bather steps forth as cleansed
from water which is no longer clean.

The Earthquake Belt.
Earthquakes are more frequent In

them. A great zone which Is particu
larly subject to earthquakes encircles
the earth. This belt Includes the Med
iterranean lands, the Azores, the West
Indies, Central America, the Hawaiian
Islands,' Japan, China, India, Persia
and Asia Minor. It Is believed that
the larger number of earthquake's orig
