ABSOUJTECif PURE OLD CREOLE CUSTOMS; Kew Orleans Society Stl l Honors th Traditions of the Old Regime. The social customs of New Orleans differ widely from those of any other fcity of the union; derived as they large ly are from the usages, and precedents pf the French and Spanish regime, in any of which hold good to-day Thei bid French social law, which divided people into three classes the aristo crat, the bourgeois, and the banaille : has to a great extent become a dedd letter. The middle class is to-day an unim portant factor in society here: One misses also that subdivision into cliques and sets which exists elsewhere. In A social sense New Orleans is virtually a dual city, the dividiug line being Canal street,'its principal thoroughfare. Above this dwell the Americans, who how predominate in the population. Below it live the Creoles, the descend ants of haughty cavaliers' and beau ties who formed the courts of the French and Spanish governors of the provinces, and who still hold sacred the stately manners, the stringent cus toms, and the prejudices of their ances tors. They, however; have for the greater part suffered reverses of for tune." This prevents their active par ticipation in society or the lavish mode Of entertainment to which they were kecustomed. It has not deprived them, however, Of a certain influence over the social tone of the city; and in no respect is ihis more readily manifest thari in the Universal observance of the chaperon system. This system is closely ad hered to as well in American as in Cre ole circles, and the penalty of iter dis regard is scandal and gossip', and per haps, if the Offense be Sufficiently seri ous, social ostracism'. Young ladies do not attend (he the atre with a gentleman without a chap feron, especially at night, unless they be nearly related or betrothed. Under no circumstances is it possible for a young girl to lunch or nine in a public restaurant unless a chap- ; eron be present, and few New Orleans girls would cuter Such a place except to attend a lunch' oT Sinner party to Which a number of guests were bidden and where one or more chaperons were present. '.-.. As. regards horscbVfc-E exercise, in ivhich New ..Orleans girls indulge but rarely, the rule requiring a chaperon is much less rigidly enforced, but upon flriving without the matronly protec tion there is virtually an absolute pro hibition. , Social calls are for the most part con fined to Sunday evening, when gentle men present themselves' a& early as 7 A'clock, and are expected to' withdraw not later than' 11 o'clock, good breed ing, of course, requiringthe first comi r to yield to his euccessoiv Formal calls Are paid only on Sunday or on the even ing of the hostess' special reception days, and do not here much exceed half an hour. In creole circles tire mother of the joung lady receiving the caller is in variably present, but among Anieri- cans the custom is observed only ac cording to the degree of intimacy iks (ween the parties. Excursions,- pic nic, etc., form no prt of the social en tertainments of New Orleans', though occasionally parties are formed to visit the neighboring plantations when the cane is being converted into sugar.' In such cases the host ma:cs a. point of groviding at least 6ue,au( ofteri'sc.v eral, chaperoti's.'

How telic Got Out. A pr'e'cObious North Side miss of 5 summers listened attentively while her father read' aToiid from the morning paper of the Cook eounty boocllcrs be ing caged at Joliet' At tht. first pause she eagerly exclaimed: "O, pajia, I was caged once." When I was visiting Alio tie in the country last summer I went into Some bushes,' and after' awhile I found I was caught. The, bushes were so thick1 that 1 Couldn't get out.- Was that the" way with the boodlers?" ... "No. dear'.'they are in prison and are Being punished by the law. Well, how Aid you finally" get'out?'1 - "Oh," she rcplirtT. with a toss of her enrly head, "I had a little hatchet and" I hatched myself out." Chicago Tri- Thumb Kings.'' I receive sofnany orders' for out-of-the ay articles of jewelrv that it takes a good deal to fistouish .me.

S: Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1889. ,i , 7-.- Ill Cawdor C&stle; The housekeeper, a handsome, mioU die-aged woman, in cashmere gown and pretty cap, receivod us at the door with such an air of smiling hospitality that we felt at home at once: Cawdor Castle is almost the. fc.hlv one of the really old custles that is; 4those that have'not been thoroughly made over and modernized that is still ilsbd as a family residence. We were first takeh into the dining-room, where the table,' not yet fully cleared, showed that luncheon was, just over. It was a pleasant, low-ceiled room, completely hung with old needle-work tapestry. The only modern thing in or about it was the carved wooden mantelpiece;, which was put in by the present earl; and bears his crest and those of his four sisters; with the date of the room, 1510. From thence we went to the kitchen, whose, walls, many feet thick, were redolent with the" odois of roasting mutton and Venison as far back as the fourteenth Century! .The enormous fireplace that nearly fills one end is un altered, and before it, .or in it, the family cooking is done to thisdaj'. For thelielp of the cook there is some odd tnachinefy, still in working order and itijdaily use. though as old as the chim ney itself, by, which the heat of the fire ttirns arid regulates the spit. The upper end of the great room is Jiewn out of solid rock, floor,' walls,' and ceil ing being of the same mass of stona. Long tables extended down the mildl$ throughout the whole length, and half a dozen maids,' busy with pans, pots, and scrubbing-brushes; glanced at us curiously as we passed by." Familiarity breeds co'ntempt and there is small doubt that they marveled under their caps at the interest or curiosity that brought so many questioning eyes into their old Kitchen. A short winding passage and a flight of steps led us into the dungeon. It is1 not a bad place as dungeons go, hav ing more light, air; arid space than inost 6;f thorn: Still; the., sound of the heavy iron door swinging to, : with a clang, upon its rusty hiitges,' must have been anything but agreeable to the poor captives upon whom it has so Often closed.- It was a hard thing to realize, -frith that kindly smiling face beside us, instead of a warder in eoat-of-mail. In the middle of the dungeon, like the central column" of avchaptef honse, rose the trunk of a large hawthorn-tree.' "There is a curious story about this old tree, which is older that! the castle itself," said the housekeeper; faying her hand upon it. "The founder of" the house was looking for a place to' build upolrr, when a saint, or an angel (it doesn't matter which)', appeared to; him, and told hint he fifiist hut id upon' whatever spot a ass laitleu1 with gold should Stop three . times successively:; Shortly afterward", an ass weighed down with treasures persisted in stop ping three times in the shade of this-hawthorn-tree. And so, you sec,' wo have our castle, which was built around it." To establish at once the principle of believing whatef er is told you wonder fullv enhances the interest of travel. We had done this at the very outset of our pilgrimage, and of course believed this bit of mediaeval history implicitly: But we may perhaps be forgiven if we ventured to wonder" whether the' ass and his gol(f belonged' to the founder or to' his dearest enemy Julia C.

Old Housekeeper's Advice oh Battling With MotlU. "Well," said the careless voting; per son resignedly a she looked 3'egterdaj at her sealskin, jacket and her olter tri mined suit; "I suppose the moths will play the. miichief with all my win ter things before next spason." "What makes you think that?" de manded the good housekeeper;- . t ... "They always do;" replied the jar; less yoiing person i.h tones that indi cated that she felt a certain sad pride in being singled out by fate its a vic tim. .. "That is nonsense perfect nonsense," said the good housekeeper in most un sympathetic tones; "If you lived in a properly regulated house you wouldn't know what a moth looks like; I never have them in my house; How do I keep them out? By simply not giving them anything to live in or on: 1 don't make neSts pi woolen rags around on purpose for their accomodation. 1 don't have am-thiiig woolen around in summer except things in i .daily use. I take up the carpets of the rbotns notiu use or sometimes I put down matting all over the house and put away the carpets; or if they are down 1 keep some good moth powder and put it around in the less frequented coiners. "How do I keep them out of the car pets after they ate taken up? "I don't know How I'd get them in unless I took particular pains to; There is no sense in the world in anyone hav ing anything moth-eaten There are forty ways of preventing it, each easier than the last. To begin with, you can have acedar ehest or a cedar-lined clos et if you live inj'our own house. It costs something in the beginning, but nothing so oppressi ve as people gener ally, imagine,' and jhere.it is for the ac comodation of your children's ebjldreni ' "I am afraid they'll. never arrive to get the good of my cedar chest," inter rupted the young person pertly. . "If you have tio chest," went on the good housekeeper, ignoring this side issue, "you can put th'ein in an ordin ary trunk and put in 10 cents worth of camphor and defy all the moths' in Christendom." "I do not like my things smelling of camphor," objected the young person. "1 like my tliir'gSi smelling of cam phor better than having no things to smell of anything," was" the satirical response, "but yon don't need to have i camphor. . If you'll just do tip j our furs and winter woolens in cotton cloth, wrap them all up in one big sheet, you'll be perfectly safe or you would be if you had some one with a grain of common sense to do up the bundle for you. It won't do to roll a sheet around the middle and leave it open at both ends. The sneet must thoroughly en wrap you? things, with no loose cor ners or cracks; Moths won't go through cotton, and if they have no other way to get at your sealskin they'll go with out it." - - - . - .. - "I haven't any sheet,"' objected the young person, mischievously. She wanted to exhaust the resources as well as tiie patience of the gOodhbuskeeper, but that lady. was equal to theoccasion. i "Well," said she, "paper will do just as well. If you'll save the big sheets of wrapping paper thatyour new spring things are now coming home in j'ou can do up all your wjnterones in awayV that will balrle" the niost enterprising moth that ever wiggled." "But I think they have already got ten in this jacket.-" "They haveu't gone far, if they havej all you need to do is to shalfe' a'trd beat it out well and then' sprinkle it well with powder before yon put it away.' "The moth powders are generally good' things " 'But they are poisonous, aren't flieyr'' "As harmless as arrowroot. They don't poison the moths, they suffocate them."
