house cat. All efforts on the part Of
the young hunter to drive the cat back

with him, and it illustrated it's ability

bagged by the hunter. Reed says he

COSTLY RUSSIAN SABLE.
Women the World over Long To Pos
sess This Royal Fur.

Ten thousand dollars seems a big
price to pay for a secondhand garment,
but the members of the royal houses
of Europe do not hesitate to spend this
amount frequently to obtain one for
winter wear. The first owners Of the
costly dress, says the Philadelphia
Times, are endowed by nature with
precedence in the matter of wearing
thgt no amount of money can over
come, and the millionaire or titled rep
resentative of a European monarchy
must be content to purchase the gar
ments after they have been worn for
years. But the Russian sable is not
a human being, and, no matter how
much the animal may drag the fur
through the mire and dirt, no one will
consider it a dishonor to wear it. In
Russia and many of the northern coun-
tries a sable coat or cloak is worn as
a mark of distinction, and Svengah,
in his expressed ambition to wear "ze
big iNur coat" undoubtedly referred to
the fine Russian sable that is seen so
commonly at the courts of Europe.
While the fashion in most furs
changes year by year, sable invariably
holds its own, and the possessor of q
rich garment of this material can well
feel the pride that comes from owning
something not commonly worn. The
demand for sable has never been so
extensive here as in Europe, and very
few understand the difference between
the relative value of the American and
Russian furs. At the court of Russia
every member must have his sable furs
for state occasions, and it is estimated
that this equipment must cost each
one not far from $4,000. In Germany
the maids of honor are compelled to
have their garments trimmed with sa-
BILE tails and clippings, while in the
court dresses of several other European
nations the sable figures in various
ways.
