Women In Bicycle Costume.

We are not going either to oppose or advocate short skirts, boomers or even knickerbockers. Whatever the rider of a bike deems necessary for comfort or adaptability to the exercise we say let her wear, but-and here is where our great revolt oecurs-do not let her wan der through city streets on foot or gayly promenade at gatherings where the ma jority of those present are conyentiOnally attired unless she is desirous of attract ing attention and enjoys the comment and remark that her conspicuous garb always attracts, for conspicuous it is off the wheel, no matter how modest it may seem on. The little cap that looks eminently suitable and becoming as she spins along the country roads gives her the air of soubrette out of employment when she seats herself in restaurant among women i'll the every day garb of civilization. Of course at a bicycle meet or at the clubhouse where members as- semble bicycle attire IS the rule, and the woman so arrayed is not conspieu- ous, but the short skirted get up is no more i'll keeping in general assemblage than bathing suit would be.
 It may be imagination, but it seems to the writer that the women who thus publicly parade acquire an air of bold ness which perhaps is assumed to hide the innate embarrassment that they must feel. Bicycling as an exercise has received the highest commeudation, and it can be indulged in with no lessening

Pretty Green and White Luaeheon.

There was 8 wise woman who gave a luncheon the other day-a green and white luncheon. She did not boast pos session of green and white embroidered linen, so she used real asparagus fern instead. Asparagus fern is more delicate than maidenhair and as hardy for lunch con purposes as the ordinary rock fern. The wise woman tackled it close to the edge of her white linen center cloth. On each of her white doilies she fastened a piece by invisible stitches. and the effect through clear glass finger bowls was charming. Just inside the line where the plates were to lie she laid q border of vine along tho tablecloth. Then she filled q big glass punch bowl with asparagus fern and starry white narcissus blossoms and was voted an art ist by her guests. Chicago Tribune.

ponnlar Consuelo.

The young Duchess of Marlborough has made, it is understood, an extremely agreeable impression ill England. It is mentioned there that she is rapidly gaining the affections of her English relatives and connections, and the peo- pie about Blenheim are delighted with her. One enthusiast writes;
 Were we asked what was the most striking of the sights we saw at this great palace, with its glad and grand surroundings, we should answer large painting, portrait in the first room we entered. The fair face upon the canvas was that of the present Duchess of Marlborough. The beauteous eyes are almost black, and so expregsivel In spite of all the other beauties of Blen- helm they seemed ever the fairest sight. Sweetly they finger in memory, inspire the soul and are moving influence for good Because this young duchess has come as q bride, crossed the blue Allan tic, some think she is stranger to our land, but this is q mistake When q tiny child of 3. she came to England and has voyaged the ocean so often since that the flying Hollander, with his phantom vessel and his phantom crew, is not more familiar with the perils of the sea. It is pleasant to notice at Blen- helm how every one loves her grace ''- Boston Transcript.

Hats and Bonnets For Little Tots.


 Boy babies of year old wear Tam O'Shanter hats of white pique, round, with broad, fiat crown and tight band fitting the head A prettier style is q white corded round hat, the crown but toning down over the brim with white linen buttons, and tied under the chin with broad strings of white muslin. These hats are also made with soft crown, gathered on the corded brim and finished on top with fiat rosette of muslin or lace. A pretty hat for boy baby has softly shirred brim and q full puffed crown with lace between ths outings. Little girls wear close bonnets, but may have hats if preferred, though they arc not as picturesque. The bon nets may have flaring fronts and high crowns, standing well above the head piece, or round crowns and close rueh. ing around the face, sometimes with fan shaped piece of lace trimmed mus lin standing up in front. They are made of tucked muslin, fine Hamburg embroidery, dotted muslin, ehambray corded and drawn ill puffs and india silk elaborately embroidered.
