PHYSI A TRAINING.
A subject Concerning Which, Many Falls,
ideas Have Been Entertained.

A subject Concerning Which, Many False
ideas Have Been Entertained.
There are few things about which
greater misconceptions have been
commonly entertained in our times
thar the subject of training for ath.
letic competitions. Throughout the
first half of the present century the
popular impression was that the re.
gime in question consisted chiefly in
%devouring huge quantities of half-raw
beef. Nine out of every ten men,
and ninety-nine out of every hundred
women, implicitly believed that a man
in training meant a man nurtured for
the time being upon hunks of half.
cooked flesh, washed down with
drinks which might, perhaps, be very
moderate in quantity, but of prodig-
ious potency. One-half of the horror
with which well-bred ladies and WELL
conducted young people of all kinds
looked upon the prize-fighter of that
period arose from a rooted convic-
fion that this was the diet upon which
he h%abitually lived. Had it ever by
any accident been the lot of any Of
these highly respectable people to
assist at the one o'clock dinners Of
a savage gladiator of the prize-ring
they would hardly have believed their
own eyes when they saw the repast
served up. The portion of well, but
not overlooked joint, the white
bread and small supply of vegetables,
the plain rice pudding, the glass Of
cold water, and one or two small
glasses of port or sherry that did
duty on these occasions could not
have failed to strike them as resemb-
ling accurately the very same mid
day meal which they were in the.
habit of setting before their own chill
dren by the doctors orders. Nor
would the early breakfast and tea Of:
the fighting man have appeared" to
them to differ any more widely
from their w except that it was,
more frugal and more rigidly con-
formable to the ideal pattern sketched
out by the family physician. AS the
real truth of the matter began to-
reveal itself through the 5mists of
prejudice, and amateurs began more
generally to train for boating and
other races, the raw beef theory, as
it may be called, was gradually dis
credited. 1t is probably exploded
altogether, eNcept@in very remote and
benighted circles, where it still fondly

maids and childless dowagers.-Satuy-

week that the Jacksons kept boarders."
Aunt Betsey observed. Maybe the
farmer was down with the rheumatic
he has spells of it-and so one of the
boarders come. But dear me! if that
varmint in the Toulouse is desperate,
QUE man can't manage Rim!'
"Well, he and Aggie are undoing the
door now" jamie cried, excitedly.
just then, as i'll luck would have i,
a dark cloud sailed across the moon
and the indistinct light was changed to
deepest obscurity.
None of us watching at the window
could distinguish what was transpiring
down at the Toulouse, but we listened
in breathless suspense, expecting to
hear shrieks, pistol-shots and other
horrible blood-curdling sounds! But
all was silent, until presently we heard
footsteps coming up the frozen path.
With n accord, we all rushed to the
door, and there, framed in the gloom,
was Agnes face-her eyes sparkling.
cheeks blushing. and her whole ex-
preston that of happy excitement.
More wonderful than this-just be-
hind her was a tall, handsome young
man-Guy Hunt!
''Wel1, l dcslare" Aunt Betsy ex-
claimed. ''Did you drop from :he
cloudsa'
And while we crowded around, Ag-
mes proceeded to relate how she had
hurried over the Hill to Farmer Jack
sons but found that he was not at
home; how Mrs. jackson had said that
she would wake one of the boarders
and ask him to come to our assistance;
how the boarder had turned out to be
none other than Mr.. Guy Hunt, who
for some reason or other had taken it
into his head to visit this part of the
country.
''But the burglar!!' we all exclaimed,
in breathless interest.
Agnes and Guy looked at each other,
and laughed in q provoking and mys-
ferrous way.
''The burglar:?" said Guy. ooh, we
let him go; he was only a harmless sort
of vagabond."
Agnes told. us %aftcrward, though,
that the burglar was Farmer Jackson
himself, who, at Guys request, had
come over with a big basket of goodies
for our Christmas dinner, the intention
being to leave the basket in the tool
house.
"You see, l rumor had been floating
about that we we're resaiy destitute,
and Guy had taken uilis secret way OF
helping lis. His plan had turned out
differently, but much better than he
had anticipated. During their moon
light walk he had pleaded his cause SO
we'll that Agnes was obliged to give
her consent to their marriage.
AS for the mark on the gate-post, il
afterward turned out to have been

with sundry other mischievous urchins,
had desired to add to the general ex,

Interesting Information About Costumes
Which are Becoming, but Not Costly.

Interesting formati About Costumes
Which are Becoming. but Not Costly.
Economists will be glad to know that
the fashion of having the basque differ
ent from the skirt is now not confined
to materials only, but extends to colors
as well; thus a red velvet basque is
worn with black skirts, and a blue
basque with red skirts. This plan gives
variety to q limited wardrobe, and
such changes, or the possibility of
them, should be considered in selecting
the winter outfit. The use of Jerseys
probably brought this fashion about. as
they are often worn now in contrast to
the skirts that complete them, a red
silk Jersey being thought appropriate
with black, blue or green skirts. The
fine white wool Jerseys, stylishly
trimmed with wide Hercules braid,
with or without a little gilt or silver,
/ are now used in the house with any
light wool skirts, such aspale blue wool
or cashmere, and light tan-colored
Jerseys are worn with darker wool or
silk skirts.
Wide stripes grow in favor for lower
skirts, or as the apron front OF plain
wool or silk dresses. These stripes are
lengthwise for short figures, and across
for those who are tall. An economical
| plan is that of buying inexpensive vel.
vet ribbons two inches wide, and sew
ing them on any part of the costume
that may suit the wearer's fancy;
thus a very deep apron of
black silk or wool may be striped
lengthwise by velvet ribbon two
or even tLree inches wide; or there may
be a short apron, and the whole space
below may be covered by either per-
pendicular or horizontal velvet stripes.
The stripes re-appear as a vest, or a
square plastron, and the high collar
band and the narrow cuffs are covered
with velvet. This trimming is used on
light wool dresses, and is very hand
some for golden brown camel's-hair,
with the velvet ribbon slightly darker,
and also in the dahlia shades of pur-
plish red.
Very pale tan-colored cloth, almost
as light as ecru tints, is made up in
dressy costumes for young ladies to
wear at afternoon receptions. Gilt
braid and some slightly darker fur are

fanciful cap or small bonnet of the
same cloth. These are carriage cos
tunes, as they are too light and too
dressy,to be worn when walking, al
though made of cloth, the material
now most used for walking dresses.
Tapestry embroidery done in old
fashioned cross stitches in dull soft
colors is the newest trimming for black
velvet jackets that form part of elegant
house toilettes. This embroidery is not
in borders, but in detached pieces APP
piled irregularly on the jacket.
10 test whether or not a color will
be becoming, modistes lay the hand
OF the wearer on the colored fabric, and
if the hand looks fairer, or at least does
not look more sallow, than before. it is
a safe choice, and may be worn neal
the face.-Harper's Bazar.
