LATEST ABOUT STYLE.

The fashionable violet known as
"eminence," or "pontifical' purple, is
by no means universally becoming
color, and women who have not really
very good compilations should eschew

Red is very muca the faehion and
seems to nave growing vogue. While
many persons have decided antipathy
to this color, on = drear, gray day IN
winter, some Of the richer shades
really have . tonic effect.
Glaze kids are accepted az smarter
than the suede. Gloves, save for even
ing wear, are not more than four-but-

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS IN BsLoiuM.

Miss Mabel Collins hss written an
article in the Belgian News protesting
against the cruelty which she has seen
practlced upon animals in Belgium.
To letter which che addressed to the
king of the Belgians on the subject she
has received reply from his msjesty,
informing her that legal enactments
already exist for suppressing cruelty to
ANIMALS. Miss Collins says. however:

gians. who scarcely credit what it con-
tains. even when they see it written
with their own eyes. They cannot be-
lieve the law exists. because they have
never seen it put in force. Once put
into force and it will be observed scru-
puiously. for Belgium has holy horror
of mourning the anger of the law"

A Much Missed Authoress.

Frau Won Offers, well known author
ess, who died lately, is much missed in
the literary society of Berlin. Hermann
Grimm, writing of her in one of the
German magazines, compares her with
Goethe in the possession Of the power of
the poet and the enjoyment of the critic.
He calls her "violet in the wood" To
the last Frau Won Offers loved most to
write of the scenes of her childhood and
youth. She thought often of the sad
times she had lived through, for as a
child she was one of those who accom-
panied the much loved Queen Louisa in
her flight to Konigsberg, after the de-
feat at Jena.
Frau Won Offers always believed in
the mental power of the German nation
to rise She never ceased to be young
in her enjoyment of life,. and might
often be met with in her walks in the
Thiergarten or in Inter den Linden
looking about her with as keen an inter-
est as the foreigner who is there for the
first time. She was over ninety when
she died, saying that she was tired and
needed sleep, although during her long
life no one had ever seen her tired, ow-
ing to her natural vivacity of character.

only Ono Poisonous snake In kns1ana.
OF the 1900 different species Of snakes
which are now known to naturalists. tho
great majority are not poisonous, and Of
the four kinds Of snakes, or snakelike
creatures, which inhabit England, only
one is venomous. This distaste for SER
pents which most persons experience,
gives way in many instances to feeling
Of interest as soon as, without risk or
danger, they become better understood.
The collection of animals at the London
Geological gardens has now for many
years included considerable number of
snakes, and SO has greatly helped to diff
fuse more rational sentiment in their
regard. But much yet remains to be
effected before that admiration for SER
pents, which their beauty and the many
points of interest they possess really call
for, is felt by educated persons in gen.

The Beauties of Civilization.

II is interesting to know that an intel
ligent hairdresser claims that blonds
cannot be done away with, that blonds
are essentially the beauties of civiliza-
ton, and that they cannot be driven
away. He says that the blond can dress
more effectively, and that a well kept
blond has ten years advantage in the
point of youthful looks. You cannot ex-
punge her in favor of the brunette even
in literature, for in the novels turned
out during the past year there have been
3S2 blonds to SO brunettes.-London

Physical Culture Is Spreading.

In the training department for gym
nastics which Boston has established as
a part of its regular school course the
girl students wear short divided skirt,
loose blouse waist without corsets and
take the exercises to music. In the Bal
timore women's college the regulation
suit consists of blouse, knickerbockers,
black hose and low shoes In the Jer-
sey City Athletic club house there is a
class of some forty women who regu-
larly take lessons in physical culture in
the spacious gymnasium under the di-
rection of a Miss Beiderhase. Here in
Brooklyn there have been several classes
this winter in different parts of the city,
all well attended. These few facts show
how rapidly the ideas of physical cul-
ture are spreading. The testimony of
all who have taken is always favorable.
They declare they have received much
good and no harm. 1t is becoming COM
mon here. as in Sweden, for women to
take these exercises in treatment Of va.
rious complaints instead of consulting d
regular physician. Brooklyn Eagle.
