The gentlewoman is also known by
her dress, not by its richness, but by its
suitability and fashioning. I
The gentlewoman never INDUCES in
conspicuous dress; she avoids eccen-
tricity of style aud loudness' in col
oring, and observes moderation.
The gentlewoman's dress is so neu-
trail when she walks abroad that it is
only noticeable for it's quiet elegance.
Her dress is not necessarily tailor-made,
but it is neatly made and suitable for
the street.
The gentlewoman does not don her
sealskin or velvets and diamonds togo
shopping or to order supplies for her
table but this solecism is committed by
many women who know no better.
The gentlewoman never makes any
display Of jewels in the street; neither
does she dress her hair in fantastic
fashion to attract, attention, nor does
she wear ultra styles in bonnets, hats
or other articles of apparel.
The true genhewoman never makes
use of slang phrases; She never INDUCES
in loud speech or boisterous laughter
in the street, OF in travelling convey
ances; neither does she assume an air
OF unnatural stiffness or importance;
her voice is pleasantly modulated, her
manner gracious, and easy to- her
equals, and kind and unassuming to
those who may possibly be called her

large herds and are as wild as antelopes.
Their watering places have beenfenced

the .runways Of a lifetime. Each herd
is led by patriarch stallion, who holds
his command with "a discipline that
would be a credit to mill taty tactics.
These herds range on the hills, far
from water, seeking the springs only
once or twice a week. Their runs are

 Judge Robinson yesterday rendered a decision upon the application of the Milford Street Railroad company for permission to build a road from the Washington bridge at Stratford to the Woodmont station. The company ap- piled for this permission under the par allel clause in the general electric rail- road act and a hearing was assigned by Judge Robinson It was thought at one time that the Consolidated road would oppose the application on the ground that it paralleled their tracks. When the hearing was held. however, there was no opposition from the rail- road company and several of Milford S residents appeared and explained the need of an electric road.
 Judge Robinson finds that the public necessity demands road and approves the layout. This covers about twelve miles and will complete a road from New Haven to Stamford
