A few nights ago some one attempt

stepsto the back door were saturated

The Pious Robin.
Here is a story of an orthodex robin:
Some time ago I attended morning ser-
vice in Ely Cathedral, where, during
the prayers, a robin kept flitting about
the building, joining occasionally in the
servic? with a modest chirrup. When
the clerzyman ascended the pulpit and
began to speak the robin deliberately
~perched hims lf on one of the pinna-
cles ot the chancel screen, quite close
to the orator, and the louder the pastor
preached the louder did the robin sing,
much tu the amusement of the congre"
gation. I have no recollection of what
the sermon was about, but the robinTs
isinging made a deep impression upon

Under its present management it

oI don't belieye much in the

Speaking ot the negro he said:

ahead, and meanwhile advises the weep-
ing bookseller to add bicycles to his
stock. It says:
oDo bicycles hurt books?T was the
momncutous question recently put by
the New York Times to a number of
booksellers in New York city, and the
weight of opinion seemed to be in the
affirmative. Not only the book trade,
but all other trades fhat have been in-
terviewed on the subject claim tosuffer
from the bicyeling epidemic.
much of this wailing is, perhaps, ex-
aggerated, it is not altogether based on
seem unreasonable to assume,
confronted with the report that nearly
city alone, and that nearly 200,000 per-
sons in the same locality are already
addicted to ~wheeling, that the ~wheelT
does affect retail trades in gener:l,
and noticeably the book trade, which
depends upon sedentaty rather than
perambulatory habits,
oHowever, there seems to be some
hope left. One of the booksellers in-
terviewed, himself an enthusiastie
wheelman, is of the opinion that the
present effect. of bicycling on the book
trade must be only. temporary. His
theory is that the increase of wheeling
means at the same time an increase of
vigor and good health among the pPo-
ple. Once the first ard present phase
of wheeling is over, this renewed vigor
will exhibit itself in a practical manner,
as the people once more return to their
libraries and books in better health and
better prepared to enjoy them. Like
all fads, bicycling will reach a climax
and then the reaction will set in. How
nearly that climax has been. reached
it would be rash to say; but the indica-
tions are that it is not yet in sight. The
manufacturers of bicycles have not yet
touched bottom, so far as prices are
concerned, and until they do, there will
still be millions to pass throurh the
craze which for the time being is de-
moralizing the equilibrium of trade.
oWe note in this connection the pro-
posal of a bookseller that the book trade
add bicycles and their concomitants to
its stock. Dry goods stores, the depart-
ment stores generally, says our friend,
besides a number of misecllancous
stores"among the latter are mentioned

GRAY CORDUROY GOWN.
May Be Made Without Trimmings or
Combined with Persian Lamb.
A very becoming gown and a very
practical one is of mouse color or stecl-
gray corduroy of good quality, much in
vogue at the moment. Nothing could
be more fit than a jacket bodice with a
rippling basquine. A smart touch
~would be to line the latter with white
~satin, though black or the same shade
of gray would do quite well. As for
the trimming, nothing can compare to
a bordering of black Persian lamb.
The bodice will need a narrow blouse of
gray, or black, or white plaifed chiffon,
with bretelles of black satin ribbon,
finished o{f on the shoulders in double
tabs, borcered with lamb. A bishop or
~pigot sleeve, with black satin cuffs,
~rarrow kands or gauntlets with fur
~bordering. To girdic the waist a black
~satin sash, with long ends tied in the
back, or a black satir belt, with smart
bow on the left side faced with white
~satin, of do without the bow, if a hand-
~some gold buckle can be substituted for
ibelt. The neck of the bodice may be
finished by a corduroy flaring collar,
turned over, or a moderately high one,
bordered with Persian lamb, ora simple
;black setin ribbon passed round the
neck twice and then tied in a pretty
bow. A Iece ruff or flat turned-down
band should be adjusted afterward to
break the harsh line of the ribbon next
the throat. For street wear a Persian
lamb jacket or cape, with hieh collar
and muif, and a toque, with either the
crown of lamb or a waved edge, in com-
bination with black or gray velvet.
