Necessity knows no law, and it's the same with extravagance. After man came woman; and uhe'a still very much in the race. 'Luba money usually speaks for both yc rties in the transaction. The string a woman ties around her Lushand's finger is a forget-me-not. The man who persists in doing his fellow -man usually ends by doing time. It may be the taking g ways: of a photo- grapher that makes his patrons look pleasant. A man always " carters to woman's 'fealty when he thinks it will further his town interests. It is the easiest thing in the world to forgive yourself the sins you con- demn in ethers. It frequently puzzles a policeman. 5o I ilstinguish between a drunken wheel - Ileum and a beginner.

Bugles of gold and of silver show in raised letters the names ot Ametican bat- tle ships, those that are of gold having gold letters and those of silver letters of enamel, red or blue. There is further or- namentation on these also in tbe way of guns and cannons in relief. The stickpins shown are exceedingly pret- ty. Some display a tiny figure of Uncle Sam—this in colored enamel—and are only an limb in height, Uncle Sam never- theless stands out in perfection. Other stickpins are flags, and a widely selling one is a very complete miniature edition of the Statue. At the throats of many are seen seen 'vonderfttliy attractive bar pint that are composed of crow of three or four of the regimental buttons spoken of above. In brooches that have a war flavor about thein there aro many varieties, Most orig- inal of all of these is a pin of gold or of silver in the design of a Cuban machete. Other brooches show battleships and flags, navy buttons, guns and swords. In the showcases near by there aro sets of studs for girls' shirtwaists and sleeve links, the favorite design here being the army and navy buttons. Chatelaines have not escaped conversion to uses of this sort, A NOW York womar who has an active interest in military af- fairs is now wearing a chatelaine of war- like articles, all especially designed for her. These include a pencil that is a miniature sword, a pocketbook in the shape of a knapsack, a smelling bottle in the guise of a tiny canteen and a writing tablet whose corner is enameled to represent an Ameri- can flag. Chatelaines with the American or the Cuban flag enameled on tbe various articles that dangle from them are quite common. The Maine gun pencil is a distinct nov- elty. It has appeared in sterling silver and is a reduced facsimile of one of the 10 inch guns of the navy. It was made from government drawings and does not lack a detail It bears in enamel the inscription "U. S. S. Maine" and a national flag. These gun pencils are also being turned out in great quantities in gun metal with silver mountings There are combs of tortoise shell, the points on their tops surmounted or rather tipped with army and navy buttons. Charms for men's watch chains show the .American flag on one side and a clover leaf on the other. It is in girdles, however, that the greatest effort has been put forth. The frames of these girdles carry in them tiny rifles crossed and miniature cannon, all in gold. Others have rifles and cannon in relief on a plate of gold, and cannon balls added. Buckles for belts show largely the same designs. The fashionable patriotic belt should possess four buckles and plates, one to be worn in front, one in the back and the third and fourth at the sides. The long chains of thin and small gold links that so many women wear about their necks now are sold with tiny enameled flags set in about eight inches. A collection of Maine spoons is also very dear to feminine hearts just now. These my lady may not wear, but they can be conspicuously displayed at home. The spoons are made in several sizes, from aft- er fter dinner coffee to dessert. The now his- toric battleship appears in relief on the bowl of some, in yet others on the handle. In others theheaand shoulders et . Cap - teen Sigsbee are to be seen on the handle, and along the shank of the spoon the words "We mourn our loss.,, There are many of those spoons made with gilt bowls. For the male patriot there are Bilk Duff buttons with enamel flags of the United States and Cuba. There are flag stick- pins and even matchboxes bearing flag, Maine and Sigsbee designs. There are Dewey designs under way, too, and possi- bly Sampson jewelry will soon be on the market. The wise manufacturers, seeing the trend of sentiment, are turning out these novelties in the cheapest sort of goods as ell as the costliest. w est The .prices range from $25 in the exclusive shops to 50 cents in the department stores. These bits of gold and silver and enamel in military: and naval design are within the reach of every maid and, matron. They may buy thein of the solid metal or of the Simaiest. plate; all are wartime jewelry: BEETHOVEN'S BIRTHPLACE. An America -a Biography of the Composer Fist Amalcenecl Interest in Bonn. Mr. H. E. Krehbiel contributesto the Century an article on "The Beethoven Museum at Bonn." iLr. l rehbiel says; :L, musical student cannot visa the Beethoven Museum at Bonn without thinking of Alexander. Thayer; It Is almost as much a lnonumeue to the distinguished biographer as to the incomparable genius, Without Thayer's. labors, indeea, It is doubtful if the museum would ever have conte into being. More than anything :Disc, the discoveries which he made touching the antecedents of Beethoven and the musical affairs of the Electoral Court helped to stir in that feeling of local patriotiseai in a -n•a 1 coterie of arc -loving .citizens of 13w to w.aieb culealnateci, ten years ago, in e..0 purchase of the house in which the composer was born, its preservation from ruin, rescue from degradation, and dedication to the Admirable purpose to which it is henceforth—let us hope in saeeula saeeulorum--to be .devoted. It is singular, in view of the large infusion of sentiment in the German nature, that so long a time was permitted to elapse between the death of Beetbovea and the tasking of these wise egad peals steps. But everything is singular which concerns Beethoven. ']'here are singular lies ea most of the books that cavo been written, about him, and even more singular truths. On his deathbed a print. of the house In which llayen was born Was placed in the. hands of the Titan, "Imea, my dear Iltiummel," said ho to the friend who stood by bis bedside, "the birthplace of Haydn! I received it to -day as a gift, and It bas given me a great pleasure, A. wretched peasant's but in which so great a pian was born!" Did bis thoughts go back to the lowly walls which echoed his own infaut cries? No one can know. lie died and gave no sign. It is even doubtful if he would have been able, had ho been asked, to settle a dispute like that whloh brolte out, ten years after his death, concern- ing which of four houses was the one in whieh be was born. His parents had occupied lodgings in three houses before he was six years old. i3e bad gong away from Bann when he was twenty-two, and he Haver went back. There were no domostio ties to recall him, 'Tho fulfilment of has manifest destiny required that he should live in Vienua,'whither bo had been sent by his Master, the Elector of Cologne, who was Archduke of Austria and the youngest sen of Marla Theresa. Bonn forgot bins until he was dead; or if it slid not quite forget him, it was too much concerned with its own petty affairs to remember which of its bouses had held the cradle of itsgreatest orct st son. Only sl0 1 did there e dawn on the city's obtuse perceptions a realization of the sleare which it lead. In the glory created by hisen genius.The realization Dever became full and perfect until the American admirer of that genius crossed the ocean and took up the task of writing the llft"story of Booth. oven, the man. That was over forty years ago—nearly bait a century. Three volumes of Mr.. Thayer's wonderful biography bavo been printed --the first in 18116, the second in 1872, the third in 1879. A fourth, the concluding volume,. was loft unfinished—barely begun, indeed—when the author died in 1897. Ceaohing for Iiis Conversation. As an overgrown boy -for I was six fent tall at fourteen—I had experienced all the agonies of bashfulness in the society of the other sox, though greatly attracted to it, I and it difficult to con- vince my associates of later years that I then habitually sat mute while others chattered. A word or two of remons- trance from my mother bad in a single day corrected this during my senior year, so far as the family table was concerned, and this emboldened me to try the experiment on a wider field. I said to myself, thinking of other young men who made themselves quite agreeable, "These youths are not your superiors --perhaps in the recitation room or the playground hardly your equals. Why not cope with. them elsewhere?" Thus influenced, '1 conquered myself in a single evening and lost my shyness forever. The process was unique, so far as I know, and I bavo often recommended it to shy young men. Being invited to a small party, I con- sidered beforehand what young ladies would probably be there. With each one I had, of coarse, something in common -- kinship, or neighborhood, or favorite pursuit. This would do, I reasoned, for a starting point. So I put down on a small sheet of paper what I would say to eacb, if I happened to be near her. It worked like a charm. I Pound myself chatting away the whole evening, and heard the next day that everybody was surprised at the transformation. I have to this day the little bit of magio paper, on which I afterward underscored, before sleeping, the points actually used. Odd Notions.

Red and Dark flair. Dark hair and complexion, in races as well as in innividuais, signify strength. Dark skinned races are always behind the lighter hue peoples in fine civiliza- tion, because the physical predominates to the exclusion among theinof the mental. Coarse, red hair indicates marvelous physical endurance. Grant Few Commissions. Only 'seven commissions were granted. to non-commissioned officers in the British army last year. Fourteen were given in 1896, 20 in 1895 and 28 in 1894. Lord Wolseley, the commander-in-chief, objects strongly to promotion from the ranks. Easily Arranged.

The Medal of Honor is Which Those Who THE KIND YOU MEED Fought at Aianilla, :Hay Wear. • The medals of 'senor which congress rot- ed the other dray to give to the officers and men who fought under Dewey at '_Manilla are not especially artistic.

Yet in spite to ofdrawbacks t the to its reputation which the delay in awarding it and the way in which some of its wearers have acquired it cause the medal of honor is an honorable decoration and bas beenwon honorably by most of those who have it. Most of them won it for suck feats as cap- turing battleflags, though one soldier got it because hewas on the guard of honor over Lincoln's coffin. The Twenty-seventh 1Maiue regiment received the pedal as a whole. Its time was up, and it volun- teered to remain and take part in the bee- tle of Gettysburg. For this and its brav- ery at the fight every survivor received the medal.. A PLUCKY OFFICER. The Daring Lieutenant Who Carried a Message Into the heart of Cnbn. Lieutenant Andrew S. rowan. the run who at the bidding of the war depa •; ueottt landed on the Cuban shorn, made his way for miles through a hostile country and penetrated to the camp of the insurgents, where he arranged with the Cuban leaders for the co-operation of the patriot forces with tho army of invasion, is a modest, unassmning officer who has acquitted him- self well in his first war assignment. His mission demanded pluck, courage, sagas• Sty and sand. These aro the qualities an American soldier usually possesses, and Lieutenant Rowan has shown himself well equipped with all of them. Rowan was born in Virginia in 1860 and was appointed from West Virginia as a cadet in 1877. His present residence is near Charleston, W. Va. He was gradu- ated from the Military academy in 1881 and was commissioned as second lieuten- ant in the Fifteenth infantry. He was made first lieutenant of the Ninth infantry in 1890 and was transferred to the Nine- ati• ff_1 ! 4/ //Lir i Q LIEUTENANT ANDREW S. ROWAN. teenth infant in the following infantry w g year. Since then he has been nominally attached to the latter regiment, though during the last five years he has been on duty in the bureau: of military information. For some years he served on the western frontier, and he has been in Cuba and knows the country. Friends know him as frnkacrdial a frank ando companion. ,Though jolly with his intimates, he is somewhat reserved among strangers. Six years ago he was employed in the intercontinental railway survey in Central America, under Captain Macomb, where he learned to speakSpanishperfectly. erfectl . When the news camp to the war depart- ment the other day that Lieutenant Rowan had after a hazardous voyage in an open boat reached Nassau, N.

For long, lone years Diamond Dyes1 have been the favorite family dyes in every civilized country, and although imi- tation package dyes are now being oti'ered for sale by dealers who think more of big profits than of giving satisfaction to the public, the great inferiority of these imi tation dyes in strengtb, fastness, beauty, and brilliancy was soon discovered, and they are now avoided and condemned by .ill who prize good, bright and durable calors, Thousands of testimonials are coining in from :ail parts of the country testifying to the excellence and vase superiority ea the Diamond Dyes.
