Cunning Of a Dog

Hunting dogs, when they grow old,
become rheumatic, or are at least de-
bilitated with pains. We know, too,
that they crave heat, and get as near
the fire as possible-a craving which
increases as they grow old. One such
dog, older than the others and slower
in getting into the lodge on returning
from the hunt, was often crowded
away from the fire by other dogs
getting all the best places before him.
Finding himself thus turned out in
the cold, he would dash toward the
door barking, when the others,
supposing it was an alarm, would
rush away too, while the old rheu-
matte went to the fire and selected a
place to suit him.-Revue Scientitique.

Fluttering Ribbons Everywhere.

The very newest introduction to 81
ladies' luncheon is a bunch OF grapes,
served on plate made to initiate, in
color and shape, the foliage OF the
vine. The grapes are tied with the ia
evitable bow, as the flutter OF ribbons
is dearer than ever to the feminine
heart and every occasion, no matter
how inappropriate, is seized for this
display. Speaking OF bows, brings to
mind that it is truly & season OF all
kinds and descriptions Of futtering
things. The hats have long strings to
hutter, the muffs also, and there are
half a dozen different ways of arrang-
ing ribbons on dresses, so that the
tiutter is unlimited.

them seem to seize the first thing that
comes to hand when it loqkslike rain,
and for that reason an tlerwise per-
feet toilet is often spoiled. a shabby
umbrella. A few women, H yer, do
carry unapproachable UNI Err, but
they are generally those wy u who
pay great attention to the "details 81
their outfit. The umbrella should al
ways be silk, as those of silk and wool
are heavy and do not roll up nicely.
A scabbard is a great Improvement,
but few ladies use it as the man at
the umbrella counter told me the
other day. 1t is said the putting on
and taking off cuts the folds OF the
silk, but silk umbrellas are frail things;
the purchase OF one is always a lot
terry, as no one can be sure OF the silk
which is used in their manufacture.
And now word OF advice about the
proper care to bestowupon silk UNI
brella.. OF course, one must never roll
it up while wet, as the dampness rots
the silk. 1t should be placed open
with the handle downward to drain.
The reason why so many umbrellas
wear out near the stick is because
they are left standing when wet and
all the water runs down and is held
there by the thick piece OF cloth which
is put there to strengthen the silk.
When buying an umbrella it is well to
have a silk cord and tassel put on if
there is not one already. This will
be found most useful to slip over the
wrist when the hands are otherwise
needed, for bundles, train, etc.

A SealSki1 Famine Feared.

The thought that the sealskin
sacques we are wearing this winter will
sometime in the future be handed
down to our grandchildren as heir
looms seems rather improbable, but
such may be the case if the English do
not see fit to renew the treaty regulat-
ing the seal fisheries AS matters re-
garding the killing of seals are now ar
ranged only certain people are allow
ed to hunt seals, and only a certain
number can be killed. At the end OF
the season it was estimated that there
were anywhere from 100000 to 9OO,-
600 seals, counting large and small.
But torevery one that is caught, three
are destroyed, SO it will be easily I'M
derstood that in case OF u non-renew-
al OF the treaty restricting the killing
to q definite number the supply cam
not last for ever, and the succeeding
generations Of women will be obliged
to find another fur with which to keep
themselves warm

American Doliteness was thoroughly
substantial and to be depended upon.
Ali OF which is, OF course, very true,
but why not have the substance and
the ornament at the same time? The
steam engine is as substantial piece
OF machinery as is made, still the ex-
qlisite finish OF all its parts is not in
the least neglected. Nowhere in Europe
would 4 person think of entering IL
hotel, drawing room, or OF sitting
down to a public dinner table without
first bowling to the assembled COM
paNT. While in America people are
apt TO behave us though they were the
only people present, quite ignoring
the others. Now, dear, remember
my little lecture the next time you
are about to seat yourself at a public
table already occupied. Bow in q
general way, then seat yourself and
at rising do the same. In nine cases
out OF ten your salutation will be re-
celved with a stony stare OF looks OF

have done the correct and civil thing,

The Skirt That Sweeps the Street.
From Paris comes the intelligence
that the trailing skirt isno longer con-
sidcred in good taste for the street,
and that long skirts are being sold in
shops at a great reduction. But New
York dressmal1ers still affirm that
the demi-train shall be worn on all
gowns and as it would be useless for
women to argue with that unbending
Priestess OF Fashion, the dressmaker,
we must bow our heads and submit
until something new presents itself
The shape most used is the ''bell, +"
a little tighter fitting around the hips
and tlaring sharply at the knee. In
order to insure Il good tit the lining
must be cut the same as the skirt, and
fitted with darts which are fastened
to the darts OF the outer skirts. Very
smart gowns have silk Innings OF some
bright color. Rushings OF ribbon and
pleatlnss will take the place OF fur for
borders.
and occasional panels will be intro
duced to vary the monotony. Plain
woods will be trimmed with stitching,
buttons, and ornamental pockets. A
good suggestion for an econmical
woman is to have the foot OF her
gown plainly stitched, and then when
it needs repairing it can easily be done
by covering the bottom with bias
band OF the same material, held down
with many rows OF stitching.

MARROW ESCAPE.
Mr. James Rivers Came Near Meeting
DeCth.

Yesterday afternoon James Rivers, who
resides on Clinton street, made close call
for lis life. He was in buggy driving
north on Church street, and as he was
crossing the NJ. 81 G. track his vehicle
was caught by freight car Of train
that was backing and the buggy was
smashed into pieces. Mr.. Rivers was
thrown out and under the moving car,
but he had presence of mind to make an
exertion to relieve himself Of his perilous
position, and with quick move he roll
ed from under the car and kept rolling
till he struck the depot.
Those witnessing the accident turned
their faces when the buggy was struck by
the car, for they did not care to witness
q scene that they thought could not be
averted, and when they found out an in
slant later that no damage was done orh-
er than a complete wreck of the buggy,
all felt better.
Church street crossing is dangerous
one, and there should be some means of
guarding passers by when trains are ap-
preaching.
