MRS. BELDEN's HUNTING CosrGMN
her previous efforts Last fall she
went down into the Maine woods to the
camp of her husbands club, armed
with Marlin rifle and determine
ton to better her record of the year
before in killing big game. Two fine,
large deer were slain within a few
days after her arri, al, and then she
had to stop on accCIInt of the game
laws.
Mrs. Belden's account of a womans
life in camp and of her costume has
unusual interest. She always dresses
so that she can get aE:rut just as easily
and noiselessly as man. Her cos
tune consistes of corduroy knicker-
bockers and cap, heavy sweater and
high boots. The camp, which is on
the shore of beautiful lake, is made
up of several log cabins. Mr.. and Mrs.
Belden have one to themselves and the
rest of the party another, third was
set apart for dining i'll, fourth was
the kitchen and the remaining one was
given up to the cock and guides.
Coffee, doughnuts and venison are
the staple articles of food in camp
Mrs. Belden had one of her deer cut
up in the woods, and she declared that
it was much more delicious than the
one she brought home with her.
Like every one else, Mrs. Belden had
her guide, who never gave her credit
before her face for any great skill, but
told the other members of the party
secretly that she was a wonder. They
had early breakfast, and were usually
on their way by o'clock in the morn
ing. Their tramps averaged about
seven miles day, but were often much
longer. The weather during most of
the time that Mrs. Belden was in camp
was gloriously fine, but when it rained
she was even happier, for then she
could get about with the LEASE possible
noise. The leaves were falling. and
while that exposed the hunters to view.
it gave them the advantage of being
able to see further about them.
The first year that Mrs. Belden was
in the woods, she stood in the runway 5
and waited for the guides to scare up
the game, but the next year she ex-
changed this somewhat tiresome meth.

BOSTON WOMAN.

Hunts With Her Husband In the Maine
Wilderness and is Famed for Her Prov
css-Her Dress Not Like a Fashion Plate,
But very Appropriate.
That n woman can handle a gun in
sportsmanlike fashion, that she can
shoot straight and shoot to kill has
been demonstrated by Mrs. Eugene
Belden's record of the past two sea-
SONS in the Maine woods, record
which is the pride and envy of the
crack shots OF the Buckfield Fur Club,
of which she is member. Mrs. Bel
den also seems to have solved the
problem of how to dress for the woods,
as the accompanying picture shows. 1t
is true her costume differs radically
from that of the ordinary suit designed
for the modern Diana, but, then, those
clothes were always too fine for real
air or water to come near.
She is a youthful matron whose
home is in one of Boston's suburbs.
She is social favorite and clever
amateur actress and she has always
been fond of athletics and outdoor
sports, but until about a year and a
half ago she had never attempted to
use a rifle. Her husband, who was an
enthusiastic sportsman, persuaded her
to try shooting at bottles thrown into
the air. She hit them without diff

on something with more risk and ex-
