ENGLISH FADS AND FANCIES.
How the Women of England Find Ex-
ercise and Amusement.

The prominent place which women
have suddenly taken for themselves in
all forms of healthy outdoor exercise is
of such recent growth that it has not yet
had time to form itself into clubs and
associations. We in London have not
yet seen women able to form coteries
and Ladies' luncheons," as the sex is
said to do in New York and Boston, into
which no intrusive male foot may enter
Whatever they may do across the At
lantic, it is certain that the fair Yankee
visitor does not here show such aggress-
i've femininity, and is glad enough to
take her pleasure in company with de-
spised man-when the man is English
No form of recreation, to a well-born
Englishwoman, can, OF course, compare
with riding. True, in London, that is
only to be obtained in the Row, but
under no circumstances does a well-born
girl look more fascinating than when
turned out' for the midday ride.
Time was when tall hat and the
most perfect and severest habit were the
strictest essentials of riding in the Row.
During the last year or two however, q
considerable relaxation has come over
full riding dress, and round straw hat,
a covert coat and cotton shirt were
often, indeed, most frequently-worn.
The types and conditions of womenkind
to be seen here are unending. The
titled daughter OF an NJ. f. II. is at ht r
ease here just as she will be in II e
evening at dance, or later on eXchang-
ing friendly greetings with her fathers
tenantry at the covert side. Her Brays-
water in charge of the riding master,
and thinking that being on horseback,
is an overestimated pleasure here is
the stout and heavy lady, who hopes
that violent exercise upon weight car
rier will allow her to have her dresses
made an inch or two tighter in the
waist, and there is the professional
rideress with snowy horse to sell.
Yes, the Row is certainly the first place
OF recreation" for women in London.
The past season has seen driving Jump
to great height of favor among fashion
| able women. A smart pony and little
ralli cart are what they have chiefly af-
fected, but it is dangerous to the safety
of humber citizens that every woman
believes driving to be the easiest thing
in the world. Only those who can and
do drive well recognize how fine an art
it is under any circumstances, and that
in London it really requires a great
amount of skill and nerve not to endan-
ger either ones own life or that of other
people.
Compared with what it has done in
the provinces, cycling has made small
progress in London as lady's pastime.
1t is, however, now becoming more
popular, as several we'll known
women are adopting it. Mrs. Hawies,
amLng others, is an enthusiastic tri-
cyclist, and can give many useful hints
to other ladies abo1t the wisdom of tax
ing train out beyond dreary suburbs and
reserving strength for long runs among
the hills and pretty scenery which can
be reached so easily from London.
1t is ert,in that the prejudice which
once existed regarding ladies riding a
tricycle. is fast dying out, and many

speak to the prisoners who had followed
him, but Immediately sank to the floor
and expired. Within five minutes after
being placed in Jail Yesterday, Stoop
sent for an attorney, but when attempt
ing to explain the circumstances attend
ing the killing, he broke down com
pletely, and the attorney was compelled
to leave without an interview.

The Winter Girl.

The winter girl is going to be as Rus
sian as possible. Her glove fitting gown
will have bard OF fur about it, and
she herself will be wrapped up in furs
from out of which her pretty face will
look like the fresh rose that she is.
The girl Of today has lost the rather
dried-up look that the girl of ten years
ago had, and the reason for it is this:
Knowing that her home is kept at sum-
mer heat all through the cold days, she
dresses as BELTS that, and only when
she goes out does she assume the very
heavy furs and the warm long wraps
that she knows are desirable as we'll as
becoming. Walking out in the fresh
air, she gains all that is good from it
and doesn't grow cold, and when she
comes in and throws aside her coat she
is not too warmly gowned for the heated
air in which she exists. She has learned
that while the room may be warm, it is
also desirable to have iC well ventilated, :,
and the consequence is that her eyes
are brighter and her skin clearer than
ever before.-New York Star.

An Expensive Subscription.

Several years ego an agent of the Ker =
nebec Journal, while in the town OF
China, met a gentleman, the father OF a
large family. In the course of the con-
versation, the gentleman remarked that
he ought to have the Journal free for
one year, in consideration of his being
the father OF so large family OF thriv-
ing children. The agent replied with a
laugh: "When you can look with
parental pride on your twentieth child,
you shall have the paper free for one
year." The Journal yesterday received
a letter from the happy father saying
that the twentieth child is born, and
mother and child are in the best of
health. That fathers name will be
placed on the Journal lists free Oh charge
for the next twelve months. .-kennebec

Coffee and Chicory-

1t has been noticed by nearly every
one that for every two men who say cof-
fee keeps them awake o. nights there is
one man who drinks it late at night,
and takes it to allay nervousness and
headaches. This is due to difference,
not in the men, but in the coffee. In
most eating houses and boarding houses
chicory is added to coffee to give it
rich color. 1t is this chicory that
destroys mems nerves. The average
"black Coffee" even in stylish restau-
rants, is usually made of the German
prepared "kafe essenz," which is all
chicorv. Pure coffee does not look so
black and rich, but it leaves the nerves
alone after all
Talking about coffee and nerves, there
is a rich Bowery restauranter who is
said to have made himself physical
wreck through his pride in serving good
coffee TO his customers. In big restau-
rants the coffee is put in a sieve or bag
inside an urn, and then steam is turned
on to boil it. The cooks are apt to begin
to serve it before the beans are we'll
steamed. The restaurant keeper in
question tasted every brewing of coffee
in his place for years, and allowed none
to be served until it was rich and strong
OF course he always added the usual
two ounces of chicory to each pound of
coffee. He nearly killed himself. He
shakes like leaf in gale.-fNew York
