cOvery is announced that such appointments
as are given 10 women are invariably be-
slowed upon the dark-haired sisterhood.
When taxed with making this cruel disiinc-
ton the officials excuse themselves By saying
that blondes are apt 10 be uuic k-tempered

Naturally, there is great rivalry aud hatred

The Chicago HOrseman has an excellent
article on the importance of northwestern
association of horse breeders, in which 1t
says:
No great movement Of recent years has
sprung so quickly into vigorous life. Not
year ago the Illinois association was formed
and two meetings have been given under its
auspices. Michigan has formed an associa-
ton worthy of its great breeding interests,
and the nine stakes which closed on Feb. |,
the list Of which we published in our last is
sue, present a grand total of 1872. Wiscon-
Sin, Indiana, Minnesota, Kansas and Ne
braska have also organized, and though the
movement appears 10 hang fire in Iowa, we
believe the breeders OF the great Hawk Eye
state are anxiots foran organic Itiou, and viii
shortly give it practical expression. WHAT
magnificent results may be legiLimately ex-
pected when these states unite i'll one asso-
citation, at whose meeting the respective
champions, the premium and stake wInntrs
at the various state association meetings,
shall meet in friendly rivalry for the eques-
TRAN crowns of the northwest. Life is snort,
and the best time to do good thing is now.
Every idea that is taken from the i'm probable
future, and crystaliZed into benefreut fact,
Is substantive gain to the world We would
suggest the wisdom of the secretaries OF the
state associations corresponding with each
other, 10 arrange for 4 mutually satisfactory
date. and convenient place for holding d
convention. We should think Chicago being
the most central, would commend itself but
that is matter which can easily be settled
by the officers Of the state associations.

barking at her heels 10 see her trot. Mr.
D. b. Irwin purchased her and hooked her

back her ears, kirked over the pole and made

GEMS A LA MODE.

There is an English fashion of wearing
stone is lucky stone. and for that reason
more appropriate gem than either the opal or
the pearl, both of which are Swallowed By evil
traditions. A necklace of beautiful moon
stones was recently worn by bride Of noble
birth in England, where it ma}7 a great sen
sation by its beauty, as fine moonstones are
somewhat rare and expensive. Those of
fine quality have luminous beauty which is
exQusitely soft and suggestive of the sum-
mer moonlight.
Large beetles and creeping things Of an
exaggerated size are used for settings Of the
most magnificent gems, while the elephant
on Il sTall scale is L favorite design for the
setting of cluster diamonds. The eyes
the elephant are usually of rubies.
The body of huge beetle, recently seen,
was of gigantic blood opal with wings of
diamonds.
In the jewelry line large and increasing
demand is noticed for ladies' sleeve links,
vest chains and diamond collar buttons.
Antique dagger sheaths are used of vinai-
grettes by fashionable ladies'. These are
sometimes of exquisite workmanship and set
with jewels.
Swiss muslin embroidered with silk is used
for draping and flouncing shot silks.
Library, table a1d desk ornaments are so
numerous nowadays that cabinet mailed to
the wall seems scarcely necessary.
The latest vinaigrettes are in repousse
silver. The cut-gass ones are found too
heavy and too hreakable for general service
Something new in ornamental inkstands
is well, the bucket, in which is the ink,
being suspended with a chain from cross
bar at the top.

novelties of the holiday season and found

luFgi Ele4u an
Hamblctonian has thirty-eight $3.50 per-
formers, and eighty -four sons that have sired
2:30 trotters. The greatest of these is George
Wilkes. In the campaigns of the turf be
made a record of 2:22, and then like battle
SCARED warrior, withdrew from the dust aud

becoming more and more intense. No blood
