at the wrists and having puffed epaulets

triangular revers faced with green and
braided with gold turned back from the
front and gave little touch of piquancy.

Gen. Grants Fondness for Horses

"In His Campaigning With Grant" I'm the
March Century, Gen. Horace Porter tells
an anecdote of the punishment Grant be-
stcwed upon a teamster who abused his
horses. Gen. Porter says that Grant re-
ferred to the incident, which seemed to
make great impression upon him, AT the
dinner table, and then said: IF people
knew how much more they could get out
OF horse by gentleness than by harshness,
they would save a great deal of trouble
both to the horse and the man. \ horse is
a particularly intelligent animal. he can ne
made to do almost anything II his master
has intelligence enough TO let hum know
what is required. Some men. for instance.
when they want to lead a horse forward,
turn toward him and stare him in the face.
He, of course. thinks they are barring his
way and he stands still. If they would
turn their back TO him and move on, he
would naturally follow. ] am looking for

THE CAREER OF THE CORSET.
The Stays Worn In Olden Times and
Those of Later Years.


Those of Later Years.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Fashion and science have Joined hands
lately on the subject OF women's waists,
and now that belt may safely measure
one. two or even three inches more than
1t did a few seasons ago, it looks if the
time-honored corset gradually being
sent into semi-disgrace.
Many and various are the different pat
terms of waists offered to the woman whose
health or whose advanced ideas urge a
larger waist, and, as a matter of course
deeper breathing. But. although all these
compromises between stays and no stays
are winning wide favor, II does not follow
by any means that the day of the corset
pure and simple. is over.
1t has had a varied career since II first
appeared in Italy during the extravagant
gorgeousness of the Renaissance. Gather
Inc di Medicis took 1t with her as part oil
her trousseau when she went TO France
to wed Henry H. and. in spite of its crude
ugliness ost of the fashionable ladies in
Paris adopted 1t. The fair Queen of Scots
and Diana of Poitiers refused to don the
tortuous combination of iron and velvet,
but their sinuous charms freed them from
conventionalism and excused them for
many things. Uncomfortable as the cor
sets unquestionably were, most OF the fdlr
danes brsvely boxed themselves up in
stiff ruff and endless length from shoulders
TO hips was not so very diferent from
the fashion plates of the past few years.
However, the inventive artisans soon sub
stituted something more pliabie than cold
iron with " hich to encircle the fair ones OF
the hour; the days Of Louis XIV dawned.
and the mold of fashion which leased
that fastidious monarch's eye was that
which permitted no hint whatever of plia-
bility in the feminine form or ease in pos
ture and movement.
But when Louis XIV arrived Boucher.
his court painter, introduced the danes OF
the Oeil de Boeuf as coy shepherdesses
and rural beauties, and for time stiff
waists became obsolete; but Boucher died,
and the tenacious corset again was In favor
until Marie Antoinette posed as country
maiden at Little Trianon, and once more
easy lines were In vogue. During the d.
rectory the waist line was entirely con-
cealed and Roman and Grecian sandals and
togas held their graceful sway The en-
beneath the bust; but the empire fell the
waist dropped with it, and the modern
steel wislebone and satin corset came in
with the century, to last in undisputed
favor until this latest movement against 1t
took shape.
For the first time in its history the ar
guments against 1t are fortified by pleas
for health rather than beauty, and 1t may
be that its final doom has come: but the
ways Of mankind are various, but those
of womankind wariouser," and no one can
say, after We have had an era of substan-
tial women and unfettered bodies, whether
1t will not be followed by the irrepressible
corset in all its pristine stiffness.

Small BOnnets.

From Harper's Bazaar.
Theater bonnets are a necessity, now that
the big hats are tabooed, and exquisitely
dainty are some of the new ones. A favor
lite combination is white and black, and a
small Dutch bonnet of white silk embroid-
cred in Jet, with jet wings spreading in all
directions, is exceedingly smart. Made en-
tirely Of rhinestones, with only stiff spray
Of pink roses perched directly atop. is an
other style; while an open-work jet crown
is graced with five osprey feathers and a
tulle aigrette.
Head-dresses have been growing larger
and theater bonnets smaller with such ce-
lerity they they have apparently met, and
1t requires a practiced eye to tell which is
which, for two ostrich plumes, q rosette of
tulle. an aigrette, and a rhinestone orna-
ment can be combined to do duty for both
occasions.
The high effect is still the correct one for
all hats: even the pretty close-fitting bon
nets. which have reappeared. have their
fiat look quite done away with by the way
the trimmings are arranged: When the
bonnet is arranged at the right angle 1t Is
smart and becoming, but If it is an inch too
far forward or back 1t Is very trying. Eng
lish walking hats have the trimming quite
high at the sides. but low In the front and
back. One very odd model has stiff spread
out wings at either side, and all around the
crown are punches of purple and yellow
violets and pansies. This hat Is unusually
wide. AS a rule. the walking hats are
smaller than those worn during the win
ter. Soft toques of velvet or silk. with
just an edge of straw brim and a stiff little
pompon are the favorite hats just at pres
ent, but will not be suitable after the warm
weather sets in; in their place are the
straw toques with silk trimmings and
ostrich pompons, that are most effective
becoming and durable
The same prodigalityfas ito feathers still
prevails. and black fine straw hats. fairly
loaded down with feathers, are works OF
art. One plume dropping backward on the
hair reminds us of the riding hats in the
old English engravings. In silvery-gray
crown and an aigrette at one side, is an
exquisite hat to be worn with gray cos.
tune.

The New Sailor Hat.
From Harper's Bazaar.

from darperS Bdzar.
A most elaborate affair is the sailor hat
Of this season, and with little resemblance
to the shape of that name which has
been in fashion so long. The amount of
trimming massed upon 1t Is inconceivable,
but fortunately the straws are now light
er In weight than has been the case, so
there is not so much burden as there ap-
pears to be In the ediice. Bunches OF
tulle, stiff sprays of flowers. and a feather
two are all put on and around the
crown somewhat in last years way, but
with the difference that marks this sea-
son from last Black or white fine straw
sailors are charming in their lines; and
the double brim, with light brtm against
the face, Is rule becoming, while the
rosettes or tufts of flowers inside the brim
at the back look particularly well with
the hair worn as it IS now-pulled out and
full at the back and sides of the head.
Heliotrope and all the different shades of
purple are as fashionable as ever while
violets galore are seen everywhere: and
violet hats and bonnets, made both of
single and double violets, are apparently as
much sought after as the day they made
their first appearance.
The late winter styles-those that ap-
peared after Christmas-will be reproduced
III straw In many instances. The full shir-
red crown OF the black velvet picture hat
has been faithfully copied in silk and
mousseine de sole crowns, while the straw
brin has facing of mousselne de sole
or even velvet. that seems almost too
much like winter hat. The shirred
crowns are sometimes supplemented by
shirred brims, and there are a great many
to be seen. In spite of the trimmings of
ribbon, flowers, and feathers these shir-
red hats do not seem altogether suitable
fer anything but midsummer wear The
bonnets are quite different, for bonnets
now adays are such minute affairs that
the material looks all the better for being
soft ard fluffy.

Spring.

The sweet south wind. so long
Sleeping In other climes, on sunny seas,
Or dallying gayly with the orange trees
In the bright land OF song,
Wakes unto u.s. and laugiingy sweeps by,
Like a glad spirit of the sunlit sky.
The laborer at his toll.
Feels on his check its dewy kiss, and lifts
His open brow to catch Its fragrant gifts
The aromatic spoil
Rorne from the blossomipg gardens of the south
While its faint sweetness fingers round HIS mouth.
The bursting buds LOOK Lp
To greet the sunlight, while it fingers yet
ON the warm hillside: and the violet
OPENS Its azure cup -
NeekIy and countless wild flowers wake TO fling
Tteir earliest incense on the gales Of Spring.
Nor unto earth alone
Thou hast q blessing for the human heart,
Balm for its wounds and healing for Its smart,
Telling Of winter flown.
And bringing hope upon the rainbow wing,
TYNE of eternal life .hrice-blessed Spring,
