are safe from frost; clear, dry day is nee
essary for picking; careful handling and
shallow baskets are important. The room
IN which thew are TO be kept for awhile
should be well ventilated and the fruit laid
out in single layers on tables or in baskets
where the air freely circuates, closing the
windows at night and in damp weather.
In about ten days the stems will be dried

Until very cold weather the boxes can be
piled so as to allow the remaining moisture
to escape through a crevice about the width

bunch should be examined, and all injured,
cracked and rotten berries removed with
suitable scissors, If two layers are packed
in box, sheet of paper should intervene;
the boxes must be kept in dry, cool
room, or passage, at an even temperature.

Women are certainly emancpated in the
matter Of outdoor exercise. says the Chi

anu sement or pursuit in which the Amer
lean girl does not participate. She is mis-
tress OF the tennis field, she can row boat
and feather her oars. She rides, she drives.
and lately she has invaded the hunting
grounds.
The most fashionable women, who have
all summer sojourned by the seaside, do not
return TO the city as soon as the water Is
too cold for the dccollctc bathing dresses
and open work stockings. They linger in
some pretty mountain resort, or they visit
one anothers country homes. 1t is so de-
lightful TO stay out of town "when the

When the cool breezes OF autumn blow
with exhilaratinR freshness, bellies don
their riding habits and think nothing OF a
fifteen-milc canter The latest habits, by
the way, have no essentially new or odd
features. They are exceedingly plain, but

be tailor-made, and they cost about one hum

IN saddles aud brides The finest saddles
are made Of the skin Of that any thing but
esthetic animal, the pig. Pig skin saddles
do not soil easily, and are susceptible TO the
cleaning effects Of soap and water. They
are therefore more popular than the stitched
and comfortable-loosing buckskin saddles.
The dog has its season of popularity
in autumn, when the excrtion of driving is
no longer trcsome to women who can af-
ford special costumes for such occasions.

Hunting is all the rage for fashionable
women. II Is so English, you know" In
the East il has long been the style for
women TO ride after the hounds at fox
chases, and several young women have dis
tinguished themselves by their daring leaps
over farm fences and road bitches One or
two New York bellies are indeed famous Oe-
cause they are always in at the death Of
poor, tame, frightened Reynard. While
there are no fox-hunts in the vicinity of
Chicago, there are many women who accom-
pany their husbands on their autumn expe-
dtions for the staying Of the prairie chicken
and other winged game. Special costumes
are designed for such occasions. Many of
them are somewhat similar TO the one worn
by the heroine in The Quick or the Dead
whenever she wished to wander beneath the
wild sky and conjurc up a sympathetic con-
vulsion of nature. Corduroy is the material
generally chosen. A belted jacket and
plain or box plated skirt is worn over pair
