Quite a new arrangement for the boa
is TO pin one end to the dress front,
draw it around the neck and carry it
down to the left side OF the waist quite
under the arm. Pin here again and
let this one end hang.
Patent leather has been largely sup
planted by the kid and satin shoes.
This is hardly a cause for grief, as the
constant contraction and expansion Of
the varnish by heat and cold rendered
them disagreeable for constant wear
Fans. or rather the originality OF
their makers, have relaxed sadly Of
late. The same lace. gauzes and rib
bOns r used again and again with
the fewest variations. Shaded ostrich
feathers can not be called new. but
seem TO turn the scale in the balance
OF popularity.
The English nainsoOks and wool
cha!lis have a soft quality and are
d~elicately tinted. but the new Ameri-
a stamped China silks and cheap
challis have failed To catch the we'll
mOdulated tones Of color. graceful de-
signs and fine texture common 10 the
imported material
A pink silk gown finished recently
for pretty young woman. just out. was
trimmed about the top OF the bodice
and down a broad side-panel Of the
skirt with curling delicate green ostrich
plumes. Long feathers decorated the
waist. while short overlapping tips
were used upon the skirt.
Ginghams bid fair to open the spring
season with a flourish. Already many
shop windows are piled high with bolts
Of stripes and plaids in every shade.
Some of these will make charming
house and stree dress. dignitied by a
touch Of velvet, or. even better. made
up with extreme simplicity.
The new spring muffs and boas are
OF short. stiff. little cock plumes. The
mufY is small and the boa very short.
This latter admits only Of n loop about
the neck and two short ends to hang.
As yet only gray ones have been seen
with the gray costumes. but any color
may be obtained.
just nov all ~far-seeing are
shopping with the same vigOr they
yer displayed in the fall. But this
time il is all in preparation for the
coming summer. Counters displaying
piles OF l~ight-colored goods surmounted
10y a placard announcing the name and
price is sure to attract purchasers.
The square toe. used with so much
comfort in an ordinary w~alking-shOe.
is nov being slowly engrafted On the
high-hecled satin and kid slipper. 1t
is now no longer considered necessary
TO compress the tenderest part Of the
foot TO gain a fine point. and those who
wear the square toes find greater ease
and pleas ure in dancing.-N. Y. World.

ABOUT r L
A Social Duty Whose Observance Is Ex-
prctrd Among We'll IHrrd People.

There are certain small things all
girls ought 10 know about-little forms
of etiquette. the o~b>ervanceof which i
expected among all well bred people.
Some understand by instinct. or in
heriiance. az by observation. but
others appear to need "A hint. 4 lady
once told me that she WAS much
chagrined al having been guilty of not
making party calls" in a city where
she had spent part of a winter and had
been invited 10 several houses. She
was refined and cultivated. hut had
never been much in society in large
towns. and actually did not know hat
Was expected Of her until il was too
late. She said that Just before return
ing IL her home she heard a lady in the
house where she WAS boarding ask an
other. Have you made your party
calls?" The matter was a puzzle 10
her. Al the first opportunity she
asked n friend TO whom she was not
afraid 10 betray her ignorance the
meaning of the expression. and found
tflal tN Inc tiliutitt u AtaN II w
the polite and proper thing for her To

where she had been invited. Imagine
her chaSrin ON being told what a party

rude those hostesses must regard her.
In sone cases. like hers. IL is ignorance
and in others il is negligence: but the
lady who has invited you will be likely
to set persons down rs under bred or
ii bred who fail Of this small courtesy.

YORKSHIRE SUPERSTITION.
The Very Old Bst Onsei<ss Ose Of "sIhrsv
Ing the Cups."

The Very Old Bst Onsei<ssO se ct .sIhrev-
ing h Caps."
The reign OF superstition is almos;
at q close The majority OF people
now upon hearing ON old legend o!
ancient belief related. at once say that
il is nothing but An old wiie's tale. and
thus think no more about H. There is
mo- SO much faith nowadays placed in
fortune t~ellers. nor 10 fortune telling
so prevalent as i; WAS some years ago;
yet We still keep hearing OF some poor
servant girl being m!.led by these
~sorcerers, who prefer doing any thing
for a livelihood rather than try Z o pro
cure one in an honest and upright
tanner. The following story. how
ever. is correct in e detail: /,
must be fully half a century since that
terrible disease, the smallpox. made a
raid upon the town OF wetherby. when
] was commissioned by the Wears wife
Ga lady whose charity was unbOunded)
10 deliver 10 twenty-seven families
some nourishing food which she was
going to give them When l had fin
ished my mission the kind old lady
wished to give me some remuneration
for my trouble. but a. l declined To &C
cept any she insisted upon my taking
tea with the servants. After tea. the
Jenny, let Us throw the cups and as
] Vas only IA boy and naturally curious
to know what they were about 10 do.
! was very attentive. She threw her
W cup drst. and declared: NO luck
in it." She then threw mine, and said.
''Thoo's luck. mi lad" She next
threw Jenny's. and exclaimed. Put
thi hat and shaw on, lass, an
max haste. or Johnny will be at
door afore thoo gifts there" Now.
Johnny was Jenny's lover. and. IA
| had 10 GO home the same way "a
Jenny. / went with her. just ~ we
turned the corner close Ia the house
where she was going sure enough
there was Johnny knocking at the
door. hen went home. and you may
be sure after what l had witnessed be-
ann thoroughly converted 10 the be-
lief OF the cup business. Some time
after Jenny. the cook. having left her
place. came 20 stay at our house for a
fortnight Being a lively sort Of girl
and full OF necrOmancy. We often had
a bit OF fun at the breakfast and tea
table by her throwing the cups. On
the morning OF her departure she said
to me: las this is the last time |
shall be with you for some time We
will throw the cups" She then threw
mine. with the same result; il had al
a been good luck" She then
threw her own cup. AS she had done
for three mornings previously with
the same result. and exclaimed:
There's death in the cup. Some
thing will happen" then took her
luggage TO the wagon (she was going
on TO Bradford). and bid her good bye.
About three weeks later. As we we're
having tea at home. who should walk
in but the brother Jenny had gone to
stay with. and. upon inquiring his
business. he replied: Il have bad
news. Poor Jenny's dead and I've
come to bid you to attend her funeral
at Kirby OVERFLOW" ! WAS the only
one. however. in our family who went
to see the poor girl laid in her last
resting place. and ] never go now 70

a Plan which Ennbles Even Poor Farmers
to Improve Their Herds.

To Improve Their Herds.
To breeders Of improved stock the
idea of keeping common or scrub stock
seems like foolishncss. But there are
thousands of cattle to-day being kept
after the conditions allowing such cat
tie to be raised at "A profit have passed
away never to return There is no
longer any excuse for this state of AZ
fairs. and ] an glad Ia believe that
most Of our farmers realize it. and rs
soon rs they see a better way will NOT
be slow to adopt il. The way is open
to every man. though he may not be
the owner OF n single animal. Now
good male animals are kept in nearly
every neighborhood for service. and if
not il is an easy matter to club together
and buy one. My " experience in
this business has been satisfactory.
Six Of us united and bought a bull.
Our herds increased rapidly. and part
of US bought out the other shares and
added another animal. In a similar
manner about % Of us bought a horse
for &l.S00. and the investment
has proven highly satisfactory. and
the large correspondence ! have
had concerning our horse company
convinces me that others are moving
in the same way. As imported horses
r expensive. a brief summary of our
experience may he desirable. rs our
plan has stood the test OF experience
and no shares can be bought nj par.
The company was formed on the plan
of having. as ncar rs might he. n share
for each mare owned. and that each
owner should be expected 10 subscribe
for As many shares as he had mares.
The par value Of the shares is IS.
Proper officers were elected and "A con-
stitutiOn and bylaws adopted. Service
fees for insurance we're fixed. As l re-
member them. AS follows: For each

great. il was decreed tina, outside serv-
ice should not he rendered when il de-
prived shareholders o! service. Thus
shareholders got lower prices and
service assured. Our company is SO
popular that We could readily increase
our capital stock il We desired todo so.
Our constitution and bylaws meet
every case liable TO rise. and are SO ad-
justed that whether the member owns
one or six mares. or any other number.
the burden falls jus; in proportion to
what ne owns. W. now have our horse
paid for and will begin to get dividends
next spring. and hardly a man feels
poorer than il he had O made the in
vestment. aside from the interest be |
has in the horse. -George Van Hoten. !
