The world is to-day but vast neigh

An inventive genius who suffered
from attacks by stray dogs when riding
his wheel, set his wits to work to devise
something which would be an eflica-
cious, and yet comparatively harmless,
means of defense. AS a result he has
brought out and patented a pocket
pistol which will shoot ammonia,
water or other liquid. The most VIC

Of ammonia in his mouth or eyes, and
yot there is no danger Of actually in

Miss Reefs appointment. ;.

Miss Reel bears her new honors mod.
estly, although her rooms at the Ar.
lington are beautiful with the flowers
sent by loving friends and constitu-
ents, aud her desk is loaded down
with congratulatory letters and tele-
grams from all over the country.
The fight that Miss Reel has made
for the place has been long and hard,
and only n woman of indomitable
pluck, perseverance and energy could
have continued in il until victory was
won. There have been many appli-
cants for the post, ms il is considered
n most desirable one--men who had
the strongest backing from the educa-
tional people Of the country, and po-
litically as well, but out of it all has
come the appointment of Miss Reel,
the only woman candidate. Her claims
in the way of ability to fill the place
aud in influence from every source ex-
ceeded those of any other applicant.
The one great objection lay in her
sex.and on that ground the president,
the secretary of the interior, under
whose department the Office comes,
and the senators from the east all
hesitated and pondered WELL The
western senators are used TO women
in public affairs, and thonght merely
of her ability. Miss Reel says she
could not help but persevere in her
quest when her friends stood by her
and did all they could. She looks
back with pleasure on the support re-
ceived from women and especially y
from the women of New York, who
earnestly urged her appointment.
Their aid and that of the press, which
gave expression to their desires, was
no small factor in her final success.

for their small feet. Russian ladies
have heavy, splay feet. In Northern

OF the women of Sweden. In Paris, the

broad Belts fo- slender Women.

Broad, soft belts are in vogue again.
They are specially suited to slender,
graceful women. The prettiest are
made of very soft satin ribbon in
bright plaids and stripes, or plain
black or white. The ends are plated
into small fancy buckle, but in the
back and on the sides the ribbon hugs
the figure high up, girdlc fashion.
Broad. soft belts have one distinct adj
vantage over the narrow leather or
jeweled ones; they can be pulled
down aud piuned firmly to the skirt,
keeping il from parting from the shil I
waist. Buckles with cnamelled flags
and shields are much used on these
belts. =

Curious Fad In Gloves and II ,ots.


1t is difficult to understand the curl
ous fad women have adopted now.
They insist upon wearing the boots
and gloves of their small brothers.
For women who have hands and feet
big enough to allow them to pat
ronize or shop where boys clothes are
kept, this is very well. But the girl
with roseleaf hand and a foot the
fairies might envy, has to go to the
expense OF having her ugly boots and
shoes made. 1t is fad which she
frowns upon, of course.
And quite right she is. When will
woman learn that it is that air of
mystery and her femininity that makes
her charming to man? If she adopts
his ties, his boots and his gloves,
where will she stop? A womans foot
in dainty boot all her own is very
much more apt to have the privilege
OF stepping npon the coat man gal
lantly spreads in her path, and the
tiny hand, in a wrinkled mousquetaire
glove, is more apt to be disposed OF
than one that suggests to man his
small impish brother.
