Who has seen a tame hare? Most school boys
have kept tame rabbits by the dozen-singularly
uninteresting pets when shut up all day in a
box munching cabbage staIks-and generally
turned over TO younger sisters in favor Of a
terrier puppy after brief. possession. Yet even
after the experience of tame hares so charm
ingiy told by Cowper, the most domestic of
poets, the hare Is neglected as a pet. Yet its
form and fur are beautiful, and SO far as the
writer has been able to judge Of this, perhaps
one OF the least carefully observed. except for
persecution, of our wild animals, the hare is a
clever, atectionate creature. as far above the
rabbit In the scale Of intelligence as il il in
physique. Last spring after late fall of snow.
an old hare brought her leverets from the hill
and md them in a straw stack near a farm and
remained constantly near them all day. coming

dress. In the latter case it often consists Of q
light gauze drapery, either embroidered or
spangled, and falling from the shoulders with
lovely effect. If you don't care for the Wat

choice the pompadour drapery or the embroid-
cred Russian skirt. Japanese effects are like
wise greatly in vogue for tea gowns and inte-
rior dresses.
Still another charming effect may be at
