NOVEL HAND DECORATIONS.
White Gloves and Little Finger Rings are
Now the Rage.

White Gloves and Little Finger Rings are
Now the Rage.
White gloves and little finger rings
set with large solitaires are now the
rage. Few gloves Of any sort have
been worn during the hot weather.
After the mysterious way Of fashion
the fad for little finger rings material
lied, and considerable business ensued.
Many rings were purchased from the
regular stock and many more were
made to order, the stone being SOU
venir Of more or less intrinsic value.
A few shirt studs have been sacrificed
for the solitaire pearl or diamond, and
coral, spinal ruby, carbuncle, amethyst,
cats eye and the fatal opal have been
selected for the band and snake rings.
These little finger rings are compar-
atively hard to wear. Two elements
are needed to make them effective-a
hand that is pretty and one that is
small. On any other hand the little
ring is aggressive and inartistic,
The white glove is also dependent
upon delicaey for effect An authority
on such matters says: mo. 8 is the
limited size for white gloves, and even
then the hand would look as big as a
No. 81 gloved in ecrue or tan" All
The new white gloves are made Of I'M
dressed kid, dog, or chamois, stitched
and topped with black. and fastened
with pearl buttons half an inch wide.

FEMININE FISH STORIES.
One Involves a Ssgacious Dog, the Other
Fight With Salmon.

FiBht n bhtnon.
There are few larger drains upon
credulity than the dog stories which
turn upon extraordinary displays OF
canine intelligence. OF COURSE, fish
story is even worse. What apology can
be offered, therefore, for the introdue.
ton of q combination of the two? The
following anecdote, however, is well
vouched for.
A young lady started out not long
ago for mornings fishing in Welsh
stream, She was accompanied by a
retriever dog, highly trained in the ac-
complishment Of bringing articles out
OF the water The young lady threw
out her line, and pursued her angling
with deep interest almost surpassed
by that evinced by the dog In fact,
the young woman's attention slum-
bered for a moment, and, as luck would
have 1t, at that very instant came big
tug at the line.
The angler, startled. lost her hold on
the rod, which was at once dragged
under water by the fish attached to the
hook. Soon the end of the rod made
its appearance, however, and the re-
triever, who had become intensely ex-
cited, Immediately jumped In and seized
it. He found it rather more difficult to
bring to land than the walking sticks
to which he was accustomed, but final
ly landed his prize. The fish proved to
be a club, which gives tremendous
first pull, but is then generally done
with. coming in like a log. A trout
would have given the retriever more
trouble.
This little Welsh incident recalls the
story of another fair fisher who threw
her line many years ago in another
Welsh river, the Usk. She had ire
mendous tussle with salmon. The
fish was hooked in the morning, prob
ably in the back fin, and rushed to and
fro with such extraordinary vivacity
that hour after hour passed without
the least sign of it's weakening.
Luncheon time came. The lady gave
the rod to the attendant to hold, and
rein forced her strength with a hearty
meal. Then she returned to the fray,
and was dragged up and down the
banks in most unpleasant fashion by
the rushes of the fish.
BY the time the shades of night be.
gan to fall the news had spread
through all the country round, and as
twilight closed in the neighbors came
with lanterns and candles, by whose
uncertain light the fight was still car.
ried on. At last, some fourteen hours
after the hooking of the fish, the line
was cut by rock, and the episode end.

the angler, but well-earned freedom for
