ve,tional seat for femininity while in
dulging in the glorious sport OF horse
back riding.
Looking backward century after sen-
turv. 1t can be found that women rode
astride in all ages and in ali countries.
Opponents of the bifurcated garment an
the safe saddle for women would De sur
priseu if they knew that their ancestresses
of generations ago rode man-fashioh
without sacrificing any OF the ethics OF
good FORM no matter how 'oud the cavil
may be against that method today.
Gradually it must dawn upon the new
woman that the Old woman. if you only
90 back far enough, had plenty OF COM
mon sense, and what is better still, made
good use of it. Our great, great. great
prapdmothers would never have risked
their pretty hecks on the very uncertain
never to be depended upon side saddles
which the modern Dianas use.
:. Slowly but surely this reform is beoom-
ing established. The American mazons
were the first of the latter day women to
be seen riding astride. then the ladies OF
the English sporting world came over to
the new order OF things, and after the
conversion of those delightfully."- proper
young ladies. the Princesses Maud and
Victoria of W"les, conservative Austria.
Germany and the hunting set in theU nited
States began to see the safety and reason
in women wearing divided skirts and
using the same saddle as the men folk Of
the family.
Woman's riding astride cannot be laid
to the so suddenly 'emancirated' nine
teenth century woman, for in all ages
and all countries it has been the univer
sal cutsom. Freya. the highest goddess

Economy

Economy in the management of house

housekeeper must face sooner or later. and
the sooner 1T is properly understood and

the following from an exchange will be
read with interest: Economy does not

worldly possessions. 1t does not demand
denial of moderate luxuries and the

One may practice the strictest economy,
and yet have plenty and be liberal. pru-

capital at hand, never making an cx-
penditure recklessly, without reflection,
this is what constitutes true economy. 1t
is not so much the amount paid out, rs
for that purpose that sum, however small,
has been, spent. The great secret OF sue
cess in practical economy lies in careful
consideration OF petty expenses and u
rational distinction between what is es-
sential and what superhuous. The small

serving of recognition.

rested last night on q charge Of as
sault In the first degree and Is being
held without bonds to await the result
Of Mr.. Fosters injuries. The COM
plant was sworn to by John Foster,
the injured mans brother, and Collier
was locked up in the county jail. Mr..
Fosters injury Is a very peculiar one,
and he grew worse so rapidly yeSter-
day as to cause the gravest apprehen-
sions as to the outcome. He felt no III
effects of the blow at first. but about
midnight Monday he became uncon-
scious and bled a little at the mouth.
He complained of a severe pain on the
right side of the head. on which he re-
ceived the blow. but this was relieved.
and the next day he felt much better.
Yesterday morning. however. the pain
shifted itself to the left side OF the
head and became so excruciating that
he soon became delirious. He did not
display any violence, but required con-
stant watching TO prevent him nrom
wandering away.
1t was at first thought that the ex-
tent of the injury was a cencussion OF
the brain but pronounced symptoms OF

very serious. His physician, DIR. Leav-

condition Is such that the result OF his
injury will probably be in doubt for
several days, unless he should take a
sudden change for the worse. and Col
lier will be held without bonds until
the attending physician Is able TO ex-
press a definite opinion as to the out
come.
Mr.. Fosters mind was still wander
Ing at last accounts last night, and In
his rational intervals he complained OF
a most severe pain on the right side OF
his head. There are different stories
of the trouble between Collier and Fos-
ter. Collier runs a lodging house ad-
