1t has been very amusing to witness
at the races this year the changed
attire and manners of the New York
society girls, says correspondent
of the San Francisco Examiner.
The costumes worn have been strikingly
mannish in cut and material. Stand-up col
lars with edges slightly turned down, cut
away coats leaving exposed short ex-
panse of shirt bosom. Regular mems era
watts, with little horsey pins and cuffs with
link sleeve-buttOnS complete these costumes
Before the racing began the horsey young
ladies invariably visited the saddling pad
dock, investigated the steeds that were to run
with seemingly practiced eyes, and loudly
criticised their points with the nonchalance
and apparent knowledge of professional
jockeys.
Another noticeable feature of this years
races has been the open manner in which
the society girls present had INDUCED in
betting. At the Cedarhurst races this
spring young girls, maidens and matrons
could be seen Oh all sides making books
among themselves or sending obedient
SWANS to buy SIS tickets for them in the
French pool.
The lunch is, of course, an important
feature of the day at the races, and the
many parties who drive over from Hemp
stead in four-in-hands find an especial en-
ioyment in this part of the days proceed
ings. Champagne is never as sparkling as
when served on a coach top after
dusty drive and with the accompani-
ment of Jolly party of friends and
chicken salad, ices and other concom-
itants of an al fresco repast, such as
a coach lunch provides, are always
particularly entcing at such times.
On each race day this year, e. D. Nor
gan, the millionaire grandson of the late
Ex-Governor Morgan; August Belmont, Jr.,
the son of the banker, and Colonel William
Jay have been present with their four-in-
hand drags, laden with parties Of friends,
and on each Of these drags one of these de-
lightful lunches has been served.
The trip to the races is not complete to
the minds of the society girls who attend
them without a visit to the stable to in
spect the winning horse, and frequently,
when one of these young ladies has won
any considerable stake OH any one racer,
she does not hesitate to kiss the successful

How Lovely Woman Adapts Herself
to All circumstances.
London Queen.
To anybody brought up in house where
many thousands are spent yearly, smaller
number of hundreds will appear quite
comical; yet as great descent as this is
often made by girls attacked by the old
fashioned but ever-prevalent complaint of
falling in love, or convinced that they have
found somebody worthy of all respect and
trust, to be the long wished-for support and
guide through this perplexing and often
cruel world. When woman thus cares
for man she thinks that what is good
enough for him is good enough
for her; and in order to share and
brighten his lot she will be
prepared to give up great many more
temporal advantages for his sake. She will
take the direction of his household with a
deep feeling of responsibility, and at first
will be quite frightened at every penny she
finds herself forced to spend. However,
not having been embittered by past made
up of petty economies and miserable
cheeSe-paring, she will cheerfuliy encoun-
ter the difficulties of her new life, and their
very novelty will provide certain amount
of excitement for her. She will make many
mistakes at first, and is sure to find that
she has very much to learn before she can
become coed manager, but she will have
all the more courage to overcome the
obstacles in her path aud to unravel the
puzzles of housekeeping, because she
brings to them fresh intelligence not
wearied beforehand by lifelong struggle
with the same enemies She has also, as
rule, none Of the littleness about appear
ances which torment those who have al
ways been poor, and many little contre-
temps which would seriously disturb the
poor mans daughter will seem to her quiet
good joke. Having always lived among
wealthy people ON an equal footing, she

IN THE RUE RoYALE.
The Romance of a model.

Zone of the most remarkable incidents
happened to an artist friend of mine who
has since moved to Boston," said a proml-
nent New York painter recently. ssHe
had just opened a studio on Fourteenth
street and not knowing the ropes very
well advertised for model They
came in shoalsEfrom all quarters of the
city-old, young, and indifferent-bu none
of them seemed suited for the figure he
had in view. One day when he was
getting about tired out hunting around
for subject young woman dressed
entirely in black applied to him for work.
She said she had never posed before, but
was very destitute, and would gladly
work for almost anything to support herself
and her little girl. There was something
about her face that pleased him, so he en-
gagged her on the spot, though not half be-
lieving the story she told hun. But he
grew interested in her case any wav. and
decided on making use of her services.
1.-The subject of the picture was might. ,
and represented female figure with black
draperies half reclining On the moon with
stars on either hand. The picture was
completed and was a fine piece of work. 1t
hung in Broadway dealers store for
several weeks and then sold for 81. 500
to an Englishman. The purchaser came
around to see the artist a few days
later to give him an order for companion
picture to represent morning. He re-
marked casually that the first work inter
ested him strangely inasmuch as the face
reminded him strongly of friend he had
known some years ago. He asked the art
list if the face was taken from life, and be-
ing assured that it was, and getting the adj
dress of the model set out to find her.
well, the upshot Of the matter was the
purchaser of the picture turned out to be
none other than her husband, who had de-
serted her in South America some years
ago, and Who repenting of his desertion,
had been hunting high and low for her sew
eral years. think this story is good enough
for novel," said the artist as he lit fresh
cigaret.

knows how little they expect of their
poorer neighbers, in fact. how amazed they
are. knowing that they themselves still
have wishes ungratihed, to find that
their less favored brethren can manage
to live as well as they do. She knows well
that rich people, instead OF crticising
little deficiencies, are much more in
clined to. resent any uhwlse attempt at
display and to bring accusations of extrava-
gance against those who appear to be trying
to do too much. She knows also that Lord
Manylands and Mr.. CrBSuS do not expect
to be entertained on equal terms by people
with small establishments, that they ask
these to their houses either from sense of
public duty or else from friendship, which
is gratitied by the society of pleasant guests,
and is amply satisfied by sincere welcome
i'll return when chance gives the impecuni-
Gus friend an opportunity for modest hospi-
tality. Another advantage over poor girl
that the rich one has in marrying a poor
man is that a woman of the world, who has
seen much of society. rarely suffers
from that morbid self-consciouSness which
is the most frequent form of snob-
bishness to be found among small gentle
folks, and which makes them ever prone
to take otfense and to think that every little
action of their neighbors is the result of de-
liberate intention. Half the ''slights''
and insults of which such people COM
plain are quite unintentienal, and are
caused by that forgetfulness which is the
natural outcome of the hurried existence of
those busy bees of fashion or of hard work,
who are the most usual offenders.
The adaptibility of woman is truly
wonderful, and the poor mans wife will,
If she has even moderate intelligence
In short time emerge from the
anxious overcareful period of her
early married life: and having discov-
cred the scale at which her new income will
permit her to live. she will find that her
previous knowledge of how things ought
to be done will enable her to become that
most excellent type of housewife, one
who can combine elegance with economy.
We do not mean to assert that every rich
girl is tltted to be poor mans wife, or that
every poor girl is unsuitable. In every po-
sition there are women unlikely to be good
wives to anybody, and others who could
hardly fail to do their duty in any state of
life to which they may be called. But,
taking girls of average goodness and intel
ligence it will be found that the rich ones
are more often happy and contented in
small houses than those who have never
lived in anything else.
