Irr.ors r.crs cF INHERITANCE,

The strength II the .sw which de-
taruinss the transmission If eharac-
ter-physical or otherwise = from
parents to children Is still Tar frola re-
ceiying due attention aud recognition.
A striking instance of inheritance IL
often hailed as wonderful and ine1pli-
cable; yet such Cases are merely ex-
a,gerated examples Of q phenomenon
Of which every family, my. every iia
divldual, affords proof. We all IN
harit, in more or less variable degree,
the ply seal constitution and the men
tai aptitudes Of our parents; but tins
law Of Inheritance is liable To 81 much

,i.,n becomes entirely lost 10 view.
When two forces act tlon a body III.
resultant is mean between the two
companies This mean 10 not merely
Ia all cases different fr,m either com
ponent, but it is variable mean, the
variation depending upon the relative
strength of the two component forces.
Inheritance affords an exact parallel
To this elementary law of mechanics
No child is entirely like either parent;
aud the inheritance Of two sets of ten
denotes which may be allied, opposed,
or indifferent to each other, may re.
suit ia characters possessed by neither
parent. This result Is no breach If
l.w OF Inheritance, but is in btrict har-
mony with It's .lost precise conditions,
yet it Is not surprising that law sub
Ject to such indefinite variation should
gam scanty recognition except from
those who have made it special
study, and can, therefore, readily dis
tingulsh aa explicable exception to
Law fr9m an actual breach of it.
Cases are on record of families whose
members were characterized by the

Summary.


A good tailor-made riding habit
costs 500 said q modiste recently tc
a reporter for the N. Y. Nail and Er.
re~ A bad habit, in whatever sense
YOU take it, costs 4 good deal more.
For winter use they are made Of Mel
ton cloths. Just now they are being
made OF elastic cloths, that come from
the west Of England. 1t is not the
bodice of habit which is difficult Ia
MAKE Any one who understands tai
loring can turn that out. 1t is the skirt
that requires skilful and experienced
artist to drape and tit properly. II is
not alone necessary To fit the lady, bat
she must be fitted on horseback. The
skirt may fall gracefully as she walks,
but it is not made for her to walk in.
So in fitting her We do so while she is
seated on large wooden reproduction
OF horse. More than that Is neces-
sary: the lady must send down her
saddle. The skirt is draped to a great
extent from the rest on the pommel OF
her saddle, and the hight of this and
its relation to the riders body are OF
the utmost importance. You cannot
do more with habit than make il bit
well There isn't much variety posi-
bic. Now We are making them open at
the neck to permit of wearing scarf
and an appropriate scarf-pin, but habits
this year viii be very much like those
of last year"
