Handkerchief! of the Light JTabric Pre-
I seated to   a Bride.
I A girl who for nine years has
worked in a certain Norristown mill
was married last week, and from the
carding, spinning, and weaving over-
I seers, because she had worked so faithfully, she received a present as delicate and rare and beautiful as ever
graced the nuptials of a princess. The
men gave her three handkerchiefs,
each of them so light that wjth a
breath they could be blown to the
ceiling, for they were woven of thistledown. This stuff is common on the
Norristown meadows, and on the plant,
or floating slowly through the air, it
resembles a ball of cobweb brushed
j with powdered silver. The gathering
j of it is a task, and it is romantic to
j think of the three overseers, corpulent
i and gray, scurrying in the young girl's
honor over the green fields after the
floating halls on pleasant Sunday
mornings. But to card, spin and weave
thistledown—to wind it on bobbins and
to make a warp of it—these were the
real tasks, and there were months of
failure and despair before they Were
achieved. Yet certainly the fabric is
delicate enough to reward the men
for all their trouble. A square yard of
the beautiful, shimmering, silver-gray
stuff could be crushed between the
thumb and finger into a hall no bigger than a pea.—Philadelphia Record.

The Best Tart of Life.
What period of life is most enjoyable? This is a question suggested by
the gossip of the Veterans as interesting as that of their diet or their habits. Mr. Frith, R. A., by the way, declares he has no rules about eating,
and he tells a friend who gives porridge as the secret of old age that if
old age can only be had by living on
porridge he prefers a short life. As
to the enjoyable period of life, the late
Mrs. Keeley said life grew healthier
as the years went on and that man-
kind had better days before it than
behind. Mrs. Cady Stanton, —io is 83,
says that life was never fuller or
sweeter to her than it is now, when
she under stands the true philosophy
of life, wastes no energy in regrets of
the past or fears of the future. 'The
future is a sealed book, and the past
cannot be remedied." She lives in the
present, bending all her energies to
the duties of the hour. Sir Gharles
Gavan Duffy says: "The most tranquil and serene period of my life was
from my sixty-fourth to my seventy-
second year."—Windsor Magazine.
The show company at the Opera
House is giving away a great many
very handsome and valuable presents.

Sun Bonnets the Rage.
Sun bonnets of "every description are
seen In the shops antf. exchanges, and
there is no doubt thai they are to be
the rage. The average outdoor girl
must possess at least half a dozen of
these creations. In the country they
are indispensable. Sometimes she
fashions them herself, but this is no
small task, and requires time and taste
and skill.
Nothing could be more becoming
and picturesque thaD some of the lovely combinations of muslin, lace and
ribbon which are'alieady shown. They
are in plain colors, or flowered in
bright or pale colors, to suit every
taste. Some are soft and drooping, and
others are made on stiffened forms.
They have strings, or they have not,
but the strings, if there, are unlikely
ever to he tied. It would seem to indicate that the summer girl intends to
pay some regard to her complexion,
and not go hatless in the sun, as she
did-last season.
