A KENTUCKY RABBIT HUNT.
All Considerations of Form In Dress and
Horses Are Disregardad.

All Considerations of Form In Dress and
Horses Are D~isregarded.
The men are dressed as they
please, the ladies as they please.
English blood gets expression as
usual in independence absolute.
There is a sturdy disregard of all
considerations of form. Some men
year leggings, some high boots; a
few have brown shooting coats. Most
Of them ride with the heel low and
the toes turned according to tempera-
ment. The southern woman's long
riding skirt has happily been laid
aside. These young Dianas wear the
usual habit, only the hat is a derby,
q cap sometimes a beaver with a
white veil or a Tam O'Shanter that
has slipped down behind and left a
frank bare head of shining hair.
They hold the reins in either hand
and not a crop is to be seen. There
are plenty Of riding whips, however,
and sometimes one runs up the back
Of some girls right arm, for that is
the old fashioned position for the
whip when riding in form. On a trip
like this, however, everybody rides
to please his fancy and rides any
where but off his horse.
The men are sturdy country
youths, who in a few years will
make good types of the beef eating
young English squire-sunburned
follows with big frames, open faces,
fearless eyes and a that is
easy, cordial, kindly, independent.
The girls are midway between the
types of brunette and blond, with
a leaning toward the latter type.
The extreme brunette is as rare as is
the unlovely blond, whom Oliver
Wendell Holmes differentiates from
her dazzling sister with locks that
have caught the light of the sun.
Radiant with freshness these girls
are, and with good health and
strength, round of figure, clear of
eye and skin, spirited, soft of voice
and slow of speech.
There is one man on a sorrel mule.
He Is the host back at the big farm
house, and he has given up every
horse he has to guests. One of the
girls has a broad white girth run
ming all the way around both horse
and saddle. Her habit is the most
stylish in the field. She has lived a
year in Washington, perhaps, and
has had a finishing touch at a fash
ionable school in New York. Near
her is a young fellow on a black
thoroughbred-a graduate, perhaps,
of Yale or Princeton. They rarely
put on airs, couples like these, when
they come back home, but drop
quietly into their old places with
friends and kindred. From respect to
local prejudice, which has a hearty
contempt for anything that is not
carried for actual use, she has eft
her riding crop at home. He has let
his orinkled black hair grow rather
long and has covered it with a black
SLOUGH hat.

maze a difference, however, ana il is
enough to create a strong bond Of
sympathy between these two, and to
cause trouble between country bred
Phyllis, plump, dark eyed, barehead-
ed, who rides a pony that is trained
to the hunt, as many of the horses
are, and young farmer Corydon, who
is near her on an iron gray. Indeed,
mischief is brewing among those
four. At a brisk walk the line moves
across the field, the captain at each
end yelling to the men-only the
men, for no woman Is ever any
where but where she ought to bs in
a southern hunting field-to keep it
straight.
BILLY" shouts the captain with
the mighty voice, II fine you $10."
The SLOUGH hat and the white girth
are tagging behind. 1t is a lovers
quarrel, and the girl looks a little
flushed. while Phyllis watches, smil-
ing. But you can compromise with
me, adds the captain, and a jolly
laugh runs down the line. Now
comes a rebel YELL" Somewhere
along the line a horse leaps forward.
Other horses jump too. Everybody
yells, and everybody's eye In on a
little bunch of cotton that is being
whisked with astonishing speed
through the brown weeds. There Is
a massing of horses close behind it.
The white girth flashes in the midst
of the melee, and the slouoh hat Is
just behind. The bunch of cotton
turns suddenly and doubles back be-
tween the horses feet. There is a
great crash and much turning, twist
ing and saving of bits. Then the
crowd dashes the other way, with
Corydon and Phyllis in tine lead.

Apology Unnecessary.

In the days when it was common
for the younger son to go into the
church one of these young gentle
men had charge of an outlying chap
81. A Sunday or two after hts ordi-
nation he found himself there in
the afternoon with only the sermon
in his pocket that he had preached
there in the morning, and so the un-
fortunate ourate had to give ii over
again. He began after service to
make profuse apologies to the clerk,
when that funotionary politely stop
ped him by saying:
"Lor bless 90, Master Charles,
don't &c take on so. We never lis

Gardening on a Small Scale,
The Japanese have the art of
dwarfng trees to mere shrubs and
of cultivating plants in a similar
way. The people take great delight
in their miniature gardens, which
require a special gardener to keep
them down to desired limits. The
author of "On Short Leave to ia
pam writes:
A Japanese garden is generally
about 10 yards square, and in this
small space are found a park and de-
inesne, with lake, summer houses,
temples, trees, all complete, and all
in keeping with the dimensions
available. The lake is 4 feet long
and full Of small goldfish. On the
border stands a pine tree, exactly 10
inches high and SO years old. Be-
meath its shade Is a temple carved
out of one piece of stone the size OF
a brick.
On'a lofty orag of some az feet
stands a fine maple tree, perfect in
form and shape, IL years old and 10
inches high.
We bought three of these minia-
ture trees later-a maple, a pine and
a BAN boo olump-eaoh about ] 5 years
old and Is inches to Q feet high,
growing in shallow dishes. We were
told of a complete garden contained
in a shallow two dozen wine case.
Everything was complete, down
to the fish in the lake, a sheet of
water only a few inches square, and
the footbridges over the water
Teahouses there were, and
numerous trees of various kinds,
each about 6 inches high. Old as
the hills these, but full Of vitality,
and yet never growing bigger.

AN E

An angel came at close of day
From places fair and far,
His garments trailing dim and gray
Against the evening star.
AS sapphire stone his sandals shone
From treading In the skies,
And peace and love, to fullness grown,
We're in his kindly eyes.
his coming brought the cattle home
From reedy pools to rest.
A curlew swimming Ger the foam
HE'D landward to her nest.
BY brook and dell each cup and bell
Shut softly In the damp
Save where some primrose sentinel
Hung out its yellow lamp.
Soon little children worn with play
We're tucked away and blessed.
Hands hard at work the livelong day
Dropped heavily to rest.
Then home again, with glad content,
The sable stranger sped.
For twas an angel heaven sent
To put the world to bed.
