A mfand card ehould be quite
email the script plain aid clear
devoid of flourishes and always en
ravtd No facsimile old English
or ornamental lettering ia permissi-
ble The pnfix Mr should appear
utiles a professional title is held
Military or complimentary title
should never appear on a visiting
card
It is the proper thing to epell
names in Inll rather than to use
initials only When the clnb ad-
dress is given it should bo iu the
leit hand lower corner Unless for
professions raasone the private ad-
dress should not be given
A womans card ehould be mneb
larger than that of a man bnt the
style of eoript the same The ad-
dress and day at home should al-
ways be given
In Loudon tho laws of coeial
etiquette are so strict that a young
girl is not allowed a visiting card
of her own On pxsteboard as
elsewhere she murt appear under
the chaperonago of her mother or
other suitable person Underneath
the mothers name on tho same
card is engraved the name of the
daughter or datightcis In Atneri
can however this custom is not
rigidly observed Still iu the best
circles during a girls firet season
her name should bo engraved be-
neath thtt of her mother The etc
ond season she may Lave a card of
her own If the mother is not liv-
ing the girls name is engraved be
low that of her father not how-
ever on hie own visiting card bnt
on one suitably large
The eldest single woman of 8
family ia always Mite tho ChriB
tian nnno not being used If there
are younger unmarried daughters
the Christian name of each ehould
be used iii designating When a
girl marriesher visiting card should
be a trifle larger Ms should
be placed before the name which
properly shitild be the husband e
name spelled out An English in
custom howovcr which is gaining
in this countiy and one which has
grown ont of the Engliih primo-
geniture laws and customs is for
the card ol the senior branch of the
family to read Mrs without the
given name of the husband En-
glish etiquette does not permit the
widow to use the Christian name
of her late husband In this conn
try it is fnqacntly done the rea-
son being that the forenames of wo-
men in our society are comparative
iy unknown
Visiting cards should never be
sent by mail nor should they be
left at unseasonable hours Be-
tween 3 and 5 in the afternoon are
the fashionable hours for railing
Ef a lady calling lor her husband
and herself finds the person called
upon is not at home she should
leave two tf her husbands cards
and one of her own at the door
Her own card is left for the mis-
tress of the house while her bus
bands should be left for both mis-
tress and master
A man shonld never leave his
card for a young lady whom he
has met at some social evtnt iinle
invited to do so by her chaperon
Neither should he invite himself
to call Cards written in pen end
ink are not permissible a pencil
may be need in emergency OardB

A LOST PICTURE
No batth field ofjhe war offered
the artist or photographer such a
chance for a picture as that of
Gettysburg when Leo made his
last great effort but neither art-
ist nor photographer waa present
Picketts chaige has been illuBtrat
ed tor a hundred publications and
it is the battle pictury of today
but all tho illustrations are ideal
Twenty thousand Federal soldiers
saw that advance Hnd it was they
saw anything like ir
Lee massed 15000 of his choicest
troops to drive at tho Federal ctn
ler That center was Cemetery
Hill and held by Hancock It
wap humanly speaking an im-
pregnable position The cre6t ol
ihe ridge was covered with artillery
which had a plnnging fire and the
stone walls and stone piles lower
down offered the infantry perfect
shelter No more than 15000 men
conld be exposed to round shot
shell grape and canister before
ctiming within range of the muske-
try When the terrific cannonado
oegan evcrjbody knew that it was
the preface to h grand move bnt
it was also the idea that the wlioe
Confederate Army would move at
once When the awful din sud-
denly ceaEed and the living wedge
was seen in motion thousands of
Federal soldiers leaped to their
feet to view the spectacle Pick
etts Virginians were the wedge
The brigade on either flank were
simply to protect his fluiks as he
drove straight ahead The Con-
federate front was a mile acrosp
the length of the noid column
nearly three It moved right out
into open ground flags flying
bands playing and the drams giv-
ing the step
Is it a review Is it a parade
What are they going to du
A thousand men a6ked the ques-
tions but no ono could answer It
was not until onr artillery opened
fire above ub that we realized what
the movement signified We were
below the smoke and had a clear
view It was a crtiol sight to see
round shot and shell plow into that
solid column but it was grand to
see the men close up right and lelt
and catch step and move on Bgain

Powder
They were inarching at common
time under the hottest kind of a
5re and they did not change to
quick until they cimo within
range of grape aid ctnister It
seemud as if every man mnst bo
swept from tho face of the earth
before wo fired a mu ket but
they suddenly rushed forward with
cheers and lwf our smoke shut
them out of sight Battered and
blunted and pounded that wedgo
never halted nnti it had
driven itself throngh our first
line and shouted fur victory
Then it was assailed on three
Clides and chucked and driven back
no not driven back but killed
wounded slaughtered Some of
the wjimded were hit three or fonr
times some of the dead five or ex
time There was no one lelt to-
go ahead no one left to fall back
Farther down the slope tho Virgin-
ians reformed and tried it ugain
and again but each iffurt was 3 tail
ere They could die but they
could not pierce our center
And the sight which mot onr
eyes as the remnants fell hack and
the smoke lilted would h ve undo
a picture to biing worldwide fino
to the artist on the spot There
were more dead and wounded on
that front than elsewlure during
the war There was more of bat-
tle wreck than on the whole fiold
at Antietam Dead and wounded
horses dead and wounded men
muskets bayonets haversacks can
toens blankets the outfit of an
army corps with the exception of
wagons and provisions was hud
died together on that narrow space
The dead were horribly mutilated
The wounded died as we raised
their heads nn I held onr canteens
to their parched lips Of the hun-
dreds of prisoners oter half wero
wounded As they were gathered
in and passed to tho rear Borne cur-
sed some wept all had tho hag-
gard look and wild eyes of a man
who has faced death without hope
of eFeape The wounded of a bat
tie shmit and groan and wail ont
On this field tho wounded wero si-
lent so strangely silent that we he-
sitated to approach them They
hnd walked in the shadow of death
and lost their speech For a mile
and a half the ground was so enra
bered that a wajion crossing the
strip mnst have rolled its wheels
over human bodies It was a blood-
spot on the landrcape the hell spot
of a bhttle which decided the fate
of nations Arist6 have eonght to
catch the picture Irom story and
soncr but no one will ever accom-
plish it They merely drift about
its edges It was a march acroes
the fields under rippling banners a
cheer and a rush a crash and a
groan They came they died
Lee was forced to retreat Minutes
made history for tho whole world
