The spring poets have nearly all lived in the sunny south or in some balmy cline where thaws were not a necessary preliminary to vernal loveli- ness. No northern bard ever has the temerity to sing the praises of the chil- ly March and April of his own cheer less cline. Courage fails him when he attempts to gush over a season in which he goes shivering about in furs. Even the most famous avoid the subject and venture no further than to comment on the rareness of "day in June," or some such safe time of year when the season is well advanced and the ice has gone out of the babbling brooks
 People who take practical view of the question have no time to lament their loss from a poetic standpoint, but turn their minds to the more serious question of a compromise between their ideas of what spring ought to be and what it's pneumonia-laden breezes make advisa- ble in matters of dress. Spring is not so cold as winter, but it is not June, either. However, the greatest trouble with 1t is that it isn't always the same thing. This makes it neces- sary to wear style of dress that can quickly be changed for something else. The best way to solve the difficulty is to have a light wrap, either cape or jacket, but in this year of giant sleeves a cape is the best Evidently all the women have arrived at the same con clusion, for never was there such del- uge of these garments as we are being visited with now.
 Most of the capes are short and some are so near being no capes at all that they suggest some magic potion or other, like the stuff Alice drank in that wonderful Wonderland when she came

Scenery fin the Behring Sea.

Sailing southeasterly along the shore of that haunt of the walrus and polar bear-St Matthew's island, in the Behring sea-" said a navigator oi those waters, "one is impressed by the mingIing of the grotesque and the ter rible in the character of the scenery. The northwest point of the island is split up into a collection of large rocks of most fantastic shapes. Houses, spires, cathedrals and figures of men and beasts are some of the forms as sumed by these volcanic fragments, which, rising about the white seething foam of the sea that breaks against their base, give weird aspect to the grim and desoIate region. One rock resembling large saddle suggested to me the thought that some antediluvian giant might in his time astraddled it, and, perhaps, fshed for reptilians over the beetling cliffs which it sur mounts.

and interesting, typifying thus our new civilization"
 As,Mrs Huneker's mother was worn- an of intensely artistic nature, the girl has really breathed an art atmosphere all her life. Evenin her s.nudpie" days her own little cakes were made with reference to outline and proportion.
 q never cared for fine dolls" she said, smiling. T always preferred to model my dolls outof clay, and thought them much prettier and sweeter than the handson4est from the shops. As a young girl, any object that interested me liked to model, but really never went seriously into the matter until about six years ago, when began to study regularly with St. Gaudens. think no one could fail with such man for an instructor. He believes in the future of women, especially as sculp- tors. have frequently heard him say that the truest artists in his class were women, and that his principal object i'll taking the class was to afford women an opportunity to prove their genius.

were made of curved strips of cloth stitched one upon the other and edged with tiny Valenciennes lace. A pointed cuff was edged with lace, as was also the silk bow which was l1notted at the neck
 One of the prettiest black coats was a satin-lilSe broadcloth, which had pointed polze-piece stitched down, and all the seams were stitched and beveled.
 Among the novelties was dark green jacket with long points in front, and a short cadet back. Elis was trimmed with black gimp.
 A tan coat that did not come together in front had long, sloping reyers, with velvet trimmings
 These jackets that do not fasten are intended to be worn with fancy fronts of silk, satin or lace, and the fronts that are made and exhibited in the shops are as various as the capes.
 It is perhaps cheaper to make these oneself, as it is usually a simple mat ter, but the shops furnish novel ideas.
 A front of blue gauge, fastened to a stock and belt, had strips of narrow Valenciennes insertion, edged with lace running down the middle of the front and forming a wide band, and other narrower bands at each edge. The collar had two points turning down on each side. which were made of quarter-inch blue moire ribbon and white insertion oewed together. Most of the fronts are madc with a yoke. \ blue satin trout is tucked down few inches to form a yoke, and then hangs blouse fashion. Collars are made with yoke of points surrounded by fiounce of wide chiffon. Yellow or grayish white is the usual tint. ALICE AMoRY.

so near vanishing into nothing at all. They are nothing more than collars, but they are collars of such fIllness as was never seen on coat or cape, and they stand out in godets and nipples, and assume as much importance as real grown-up wraps. It is amazing how much trimming can be crowded upon these diminutive creations. If there isn't room for a founce they are trimmed with full ruche that winds and twists about as if it were trying to find room to stand on. One pretty black silk model was trimmed with this kind of ruche, made of black mousseline de soie. The ruche started to go around the neck, but changed it's course from the shoulders and ran to a point down the front.
 Capes are made of every material that is fashionable, from gauge to mo- hair and broadcloth. The gauge eapes are accordion-plaited and generally have q silk foundation. A very pretty one was made with two founces of ae- contemplated black null over pink silk. with lace ruche at the neck.
 Among its many uses crepon num- bers the cape, and flares and futters around the shoulders in about the same way that it flares around the feet when made into skirts. A tiny wrap of black chiffon crape showed green silk from beneath 1t was the crepon with the satin stripe and thin mesh, and was finished at the neck with a chiffon ruche. Another wrap, which was nothing more than a piece of remoy- able trimming, had folds of silk rum ming to point at the waist in the back, where it was fastened. This was edged with some heavy cream-colored lace, laid over black velvet. h front the

Her design was submitted in eompeti- tion with those of some of the best men in the country, but her originality as well as strength of treatment carried the day.
 Mrs. Huneker scarcely appears out of her teens, with her slim, girlish figure and cream and rose tinting. She is delightfully."- enthusiastic over her art, and has modelled some fine busts of well known people. Her rprofle bas- relief of Paderewski is the finest yet made The strong individuality of the face is preserved, but in no way exag- gerated, and, unlike many portraits of the eccentric genius, the mass of wavy hair is not made the principal feature; it is rather the dignity of the great artist that is most strongly marked. Equally notable are the bust of Anton Seidl and small statuette of Jean de Reszlze.
 Another statuette of 8 slightly draped figure of woman, tall and most di- vinely proportioned, is remarkable for the life and vigor it portrays-so com plete an embodiment is it of superb health, strength and vitality as actu- ally to convey an impression of move ment and color.

cape hung in two square stoles on each side of the front. These stoles were black velvet, edged with lace and a fringe of jet pendants.
 The ordinary wraps are made of silk or satin, with no fullness. at the neck . and lots of godets from the shoulder down-or, perhaps 1t would be more correct to say, out, as the sleeves usu- ally prevent the miniature cape skirts from dropping. These are not trimmed, but are considered sufficiently orna- mental with their own plaits. A small ruche of some kind is the sole decora- tion. I have seen such capes made of moire poplin, plain black silk, black satin and moire silk. Any of these ma- terials may be made plain if only they are full enough, and the ordinary short wrap requires only about one square yard of material. Two yards of silk is more than enough, since it only takes about a width and half. This econ omy in material, added to the fact that 1 it is the simplest matter in the world to make one, renders the wrap ques- tion comparatively simple matter.
 The more elaborate capes are trimmed with aounces of lace and plaited ehif- ion, and wreaths and punches of flow CTS. One very fancy one, intended for the summer garden or the seaside ball. room, has flounces of the widest and finest duchess lace over brocaded silk. One of the blondest of blondes will wear this wrap.
 Another, of heavy black silk. has founces of black embroidered chiffon running to point in front. But there are so many varieties that one might go on describing forever and not in- clude them all. 1t is safe to say that there are just as many styles as there are freaks of fancy, provided the freaks run in the line of frills and plaits.
 However, the spring wraps are not all capes. There are some people who in- sist that such wraps are not becoming and will never give up their jackets. The new jackets are either tan or black. The tans are either covert cloth or broadcloth, and are, of course, short. The most common style is after the reefer pattern. Some of those that button on the side have no correspond ing row of buttons on the other. A tan covert jacket that buttoned quite close to the neck had small pointed revers, and was trimmed with straps of the material stitched down at the edges. There were pockets on each side, which curved and sloped upward in front. But the novelty about the coat was the tiny curved pocket which was set in the top of each sleeve, & de- vice which gave rise to several playful remarks about carrying ones heart in it, or using it as an aid in certain un- mentionable card games.
 An exquisite creamy tan coat of broad cloth was made double-breasted and buttoned with large pearl buttons beau tifully carved. The sleeves were the most attractive feature about it. They
