FAMILY XA.MK HIS ONU OIMKIT Proud na Luclrcr whb Mynderso Van Dyun In the Trlaniile play "Ite Bcnoratcs" at the Rtnr theatre on Thursday and Friday. He was proud of his ancestral home, and or his Influence ami. above nil, of the Mile blood which coursed through his veins. "Who was your grandfather?" was his first oucstlon when he met a strang er and on this hinged his whole character. Tho oni (lenlrc of his life was the union of his two grandchildren. I Catherine Ten Eyrk and IV11 Van ! Dyun, for it meant the perpetuation i of tho family name without a break! In tho purity of the blood. And then came n grim tragedy which at ono blow shuttered Hie' old man's dearest dreams and left him a broken man. Hut It re mained for tho tiny hands of a' child, through whose veins flowed tho Van Dyun bine and the red i blood of the commoner to open the, eyea of this proud old ninn In this 1 glowing Trlanglo play, "Regener-ntes." A Hint to the Aged. If people past sixty years of age could be persuaded to go to bed as soon us they take cold and reniiiln In bed for one or nve d,y, they would recover much more om.

Piwu In tb"" winter rosorts of tho souili where fair society una gone to recuperate from tho Btrain of Its war activities, riding Is the most papular outdoor sport. The riding habit lends itself particu larly well to the military cut, witli. tts boots, trousers, and mannish coat. Tho model photographed here Is worked out In khaki col ored linen to spare tho wool for sorlous business. ' The riding crop Is strongly reminiscent of tho swagger stick, though wo auBpect thero is a silver vanity box con-. cenled In the knob on the handle. Even the riding hat Is built on the lines of Sammy's campaign hat and Is bound with a determined look ing lcathor thong. , HASTENED TO INFORM WIFE "Mary, We Arc Elected," Was Lin. coin's Form of Telling Helpmeet the Good News. Perhaps one of the innst chiiraeler Isllc of the Lincoln anecdotes may be revived with timeliness, (in the night of bis first election the little "frame" home of the Lincoln in Nprlngtli-lil. III., was thronged with eager Heidi burs and friends. Reports for a while came In early and favorably. Then they were less promising. The crowd dwindled. Then came the news that Lincoln had carried the country. The rest of the story will belter be told by that great mini himself. "When there was 110 longer any doubt, or reason for doubt," lie related after ward, "I went lip to my bedroom and found my wife asleep, 1 gently touch ed her shoulder nnd sn' 1, 'Mjry!' slio made no answer.
