OLD TIME CALLING.

The overcoat of our 1850 dandy was of several fashions, like our own day. The box coat was affected by horsemen and sporting characters—the long tailed short waisted surtout by the more fashionable. In the midst of the excitement attending Kossuth’s visit to America the soft felt hat worn by him was affected by a few even with the feather, but it never attained the dignity of a fashion. The wide flowing cloaks, called the Talma, were also worn. Thus attired, the caller sallied forth for his day’s work. The dress of the ladies was as rich as possible as for dinner, an evening party or the opera, and for the fashion I must beg them to turn to a magazine or fashion book of the day. Many gentlemen proceeded in carriages from call to call, thus saving time and preserving" their attire from rain, snow or dust. Upon entering the parlor the caller advanced gayly toward the hostess or a lady he knew, saying, “I wish you a Happy New Year,” or he extended his wish to all the ladies by saying, “I wish you all a Happy New Year.” The old or elderly gentlemen who were on intimate terms with the family or were relations were often permitted to salute the young ladies or all the ladies they were safe in honoring. Some old gentlemen, indeed, claimed it as a rite or ceremony descended from colonial times. The caller then seated himself and exchanged a few remarks. In a few moments the caller arose and said lie must go. He was then asked to take some refreshment, which he generally did, more or less according to the circumstances of his being more or less devoted to the table, his Intimacy with the family or the number of tables at which he had already partaken. Relatives and intimate friends having seen the table spread and knowing the strength of it in certain delicacies they might be fond of made vigorous assaults on it, which the ladies frequently saw with regret, not being able to renew the supply and fearing there would life none for favorite callers. Others, more frugal and circumspect, kept these choice matters for the latter part of the day, when the “particular” callers came. The clergymen of that day kept open house not only for their congregation, but when famous, like Beecher, Dr. Storrs. Dr. Bethune and others, were accessible at all hours to all who might call. Then came the war that did away with more than one delightful old custom. But neither the war nor anything so caused the custom of New Year’s calls to decay as the rapid growth of the city, the sharply drawn lines of the different classes and the great distances between the dwellings of friends. So it died out and became only a pleasant memory.—W. 11. Wal laCo Li New York Evening Post.

New Year’s Eve Among the Rayahs.

The Greeks who dwell in Turkish territory and are subjects of the sultan are known as Greek Rayahs. They follow the Greek calendar, according to which Jan. 1 comes on our Jan. 14. New Year's eve is a great time for the Rayah boys. As soon as they ring the bell of a bouse the door is thrown open and the voice of the master is heard, saying, “Let the boys in at once! Give them money, fruit and all that they can carry of St. Basil’s cake. Come on, servants; fill their pockets while they give us their song!” Then the poor children, delighted by the warm welcome of the host and the profusion of dainty things given them, sing with frenzy the romantic little tale of St. Basil, patron saint of the home and of the young, and end with the calling down of numerous blessings on the generous family during the sew year.—Youth’s Companion.

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured With local applications, as they cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a local disease, greatly‘influenced by constitutional conditions, and in order to cure it you must take an internal remedy. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally and acts through the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system. Hall’s Catarrh Cure was prescribed by one of the best physicians in this country for years. It is composed of some of the best tonics known, combined with some of the best blood purifiers. The perfect combination of the ingredients in Hall’s Catarrh Cure is what produces such wonderful results in catarrhal conditions. Send for testimonials, free. F. J.
