There are two really beautiful
the other is a woman. The difference
between them is not in the sickness
of their skins, the brightness of their
eyes or the fleetness of their feet, but
horse is never deceitful. A woman
well, you know about that! Now
comes the time of the year when the
| girl who for three months has been
designing a gown for the horse show
| has the great pleasure of appearing
in it and hoping that she has made
every other look like an also ran" by
it. New to you? Well, it may be,
but it is the latest slang among the
horsey women, who have a pleasant
liking for their husbands, a real love
for their children, but an alteration
for their dumb pets.
The horse show in New York might
be called the flower show of the wo-
men, for there are all kinds and con-
ditions of the fair sex. There is the
| dignifed, elderly lady, who uses dia-
| mond studded lorgnette and looks with
scorn at the pretty soubrette surround
ed by a crowd of admirers, wondering
| to one elderly beau who that creature
can be. There is a noveau richie, who
| has bought the most expensive box
| in the show and has not learned that
| diamonds in daytime are like unto ev-
| ening clothes before o'clock.
There is the belle of the season. She
| comes from the land of the beautiful
! horses and lovely women mot to men
ton the fine whiskey)-Kentucky.
And when you are told of the position
she occupies you look out for velvets
and laces and frills and frivols, but
| instead, knowing that her broadcloth
! and the horses skin must shine alike,
she wears tailOrmade gown of very
| dark blue cloth made almost brilliant
with small red buttons and having on
! her head what her English cousin calls
her game hat" She has come to see
| the horses. The men are all very we'll
| at night, when one sits in box, looks
| ones best and is ready afterward to
! go to supper. But the afternoon
| brings out the girl who knows how to
ride. When at home she stands and
chatters on the big, broad yeranda,
while the gentlemen are buttoning
their gloves, and then she puts out
that dainty foot with a charming nom
chalance to the nearest man, who
gives her lift as she springs and gets
into her saddle like a bird Truth to
tell, the lady would rather have the
groom to lift her than a gentleman,
because he knows his business. When
this girl from Kentucky patted her
horse on the neck, the horse raised
its head and its eyes frightened, as if
to say: Look at me. I am the very
perfection of perfection. and look at
this lady. whose cavalier am. She
is as good-almost-as | am"
The very smart girl, who week ago
was we/ing patriotic badge, now has
pinned high upon her shoulder, where
there is one white orchid, horsy Plus
to hold it in place. There Is the pin
that stretches almost across the bodice,
representing a four-in-hand, with its
horses Of diamonds and the coach OF
sapphires and rubies. There is the
winner himself. Bless you, he is cut
out of diamonds, with his Jockey on
him. showing his colors that are o.
some great house of Scotland. There
is the girl who does not care for
horses lean such a girl exist?) and
whose brooch is miniature bike, form
ed of diamonds, with a frame of gold;
there are parrots with bodies of dia-
monds and heads of rubies; there are
pigs formed entirely of diamonds. and
there are wolly dogs, sporting dogs.
