For Water Nylnphs.

Combinations of bathing slippers
and hose arenow used quite commonly
and with comfort. The separate bath
ing shoes must be tied on by one or
more sets of strings, which are not
only liable to come off or break, but
are binding on the ankles. The COM
bination hose and shoe keeps the shoe
on the foot and leaves the ankle free.
Some of these combinations have q
slipper yamp, while Others merely
have heavy sole to the stocking.
The stocking part of the combina-
ton is made in varying lengths from
the ordinary knee length to opera
lengths. With black bathing suit,
these last are very appropriate and
comfortable as we'll as neat.

Bathing a Good Cosm etc.

Bathing is positively the best cos
metic in the world, and any physician
will tell you SO. Regular hours for
eating, and abstinence from rich food
is the next best, and regular hours
for sleeping will come third. The girl
who tries the recipe for three months
can throw away powder and rouge pot
on the garbage heap, and look to be her
own granddaughter when she reaches
three score and ten.

Word About cheap silks.

"Cheap silks are not worth having

land so I approve of haunting sales
for this one special thing. Don't buy
the tints and designs that are espe-

will go out of style, and even q hand

. clever Attempt to Escape.

A scheme which was clever enough
to deserve success was discovered by
the warden of the Missouri penitenti-
airy at Jefferson City day or two ago.
Among a big batch of prisoners who
were brought to the prison to begin
their sentences were Jim johnson and
Roy Griffith, whose sentences were
three and two years respectively. JEFF
ferson is wanted in California to serve
out an unfinished sentence of fifteen
years and in Utah to serve the State
for ten years, having escaped from the
prisons of both States. His identity
had been discovered after his trial In
Missouri had begun, but of course that
State had. first claim on him, but at
the expiration of his three years sem
tence he would be turned over to one
of the other States for his punishment
there. In order to escape with only
his Missouri term he arranged q
scheme with Griffith, the two-year man,
by which the pair were to trade names
when they were registered at the PEN
itentiary. In this way johnson would
be released at the end of two years
aud get away before the California or
Utah officers could get him. Then
when he was safely out of the way
Griffith, still in prison, would tell the
truth of the matter, and as he would
have served his full sentence, the OFF,
GERS would be compelled to release
him. The scheme worked all right as
far as the registration at the prison
went, but day or two afterward the
warden, in looking over the pictures
of his new prisoners in the rogues'
gallery, discovered the mix-up in the
names and questioned the prisoners,
who finally told the whole story.-De-

Jenerson's violin.

Genuine Nicholas Amati- violins are
as rare as they are costly, but when
such an instrument comes into possess
sion of musician of the present, after
having once been the property. Of
Thomas Jefferson, President of the
United States, its value is enhanced
threefold. Such historic music maker
is just now being manipulated by Mr..
David L. Bartlett, to whom it was
loaned by Albert Hildebrandt, the
well-known connoisseur collector OF
this city.
The manner in which the rare old
fiddle was secured is decidedly inter-
esting. Not long since Mr.. Hide
brandt, who is 'cellist of ability, to-
gether with Fred H. Gottlieb, futist;
Isidor Dubowitz, violinist. and Rich
ard Meyer, pianist, went to Char
lottesville, Va, to give q concert for
the benefit Of a charity organization
there. just after the concert Mr..
Hildebrandt was told that Richard
Scott, ninety-three-old negro, living
at tie foot of the Monticello Hills, had
in his possession a violin which was
apparently of great value. Quick to
scent an old-time instrument, Mr..
Hildebrandt went in search OF Scott,
and found him at work in field near
his cabin. The old man stated that
the fiddle had been handed down to
him by his father, who had been Q
slave in the family of Thomas Jeffer'
son. Scott readily agreed for CON
sideration to part with the violin
which, upon inspection, proved to b
q genuine Nicholas Amati, which rank

WONDERFUL FooTcEAR.

In the Cluny Museum, Paris, is a
collection of shoes which would make
any woman covet them. Three hum
dred pairs represent footwear from the
fifteenth century down. Several pairs
of Turkish shoes are sewn with gold
thread and incrusted with gems. An
Indian war shoe has an upturned sole
and protection of chain mail across
the instep and around the heel and
toe. Curious articles are the other
Indian shoes, ornamented with
beetles wing trimming and embroid-
cred in pure silver thread.
A pair of shoes made of yellow silk
once belonged to the famous Marquise
de Pompadour, and are the identical
pair she is depicted as wearing in the
pastel portrait of her which hangs in
the gallery of the Louvre. They are
neither particularly small nor very
shapely, but are exceedingly well pre-
served.
One of the most beautiful sixteenth
century shoes is Venetian pattern,
the white leather work of which is so
finely wrought that it resembles beau
tiful guipure lace. African shoes are
mostly of leather, bizarre in design
and in the coloring of the silks and
woods used for their establishment.
Among the shoes ecclesiastical are
those of Clement XVI, gorgeous in
crimson velvet and with foliated
cross on each toe worked in gold
thread. Their owners chief claim to
historical notice was his abolishing
the Order of Jesuits.
A singularly unshapely pair of shoes
are those once belonging to wasp
wasted Catherine de Medici; square,
toed, embroidered, and long in shape
with a large flap coming over the in
step.
A long French shoe, whose absolute
ly square toes would delight the heart
of hygienic bootmaker, is that which
belonged to famous governor of the
province of Languedoc, Henry de
Montmorency by name. The chief
characterization is formed by large
feur-de-lis stamped on the instep,
which emblem is repeated on the sole.

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.

\ correspondent from Hawaii sug-
gested, few days ago, that an agri-
cultural society should be started and
said it was high time that Hawaii fell
into line with other states and terri
tories. The correspondent was quite
correct in his remarks, and now that
we have so many diversified industries
such a society would be eminently use
full. The subject is under serious con-
sideration and will bear fruit.
The original agricultural society of
1853 it must have been in a fourishing
condition for prizes amounting to one
thousand dollars were awarded, and
! it must be remembered that one thou
sand dollars in 1858 had far greater
purchasing power in these Islands
than it has in 1898.
According to a publication of that
date three days were devoted to the
annual meeting and the show. The
first day was devoted to reading re-
ports, choosing judges, etc, and in the
evening the annual address was deliv-
cred. This was quite a grand function
and all Honolulu turned out from the
King downward.
The second and third days were de-
voted to the show. The scope of the
display included all kinds of stock,
poultry, dairy products, fruits, veget.
ables, field crops and flowers, very
fair display indeed.
We are very apt to think that our
predecessors have ever been behind us
but in this particular the Honolulu Of
over forty years ago was ahead of the
Honolulu of today 1t is to be hoped
that next summer will see such So
ciety revived.

THANKSGIVING STAR BOYS.

The boys of The Star are looking
forward to their annual treat and
there is great excitement among them
to know if everything will be as it
was last year, and so it will be, even
down to the tin horns. If boy can
not make "A noise on holiday why a
holiday is not worth having, and it is
one of the features of Thanksgiving
to see the busses crowded with young
sters, each footing away for dear life.
Poor little fellows, many of them
get very little sunshine in their lives,
and they have to work hard to help
their parents and the rest of the fam
lily along. The dollar or the half dol
lar, which nearly all earn daily, is
very acceptable in helping out the
family rations and in buying clothes
Few people know how poorly off some
of the families are and how necessary
to them is the labor of the boys. The
law compels them to go to school, but
the newspapers give them a job out OF
school hours at remunerative rates.
Since last Saturday there has been
careful washing of shirts and a
cleaning of shoes and brushing up OF
Sunday clothes, for the little fellows
always do honor to the feast by APP,
pearing in their best.
Fortunately The Star has been pros
porous this year as it has been in the
past, and it trusts that for many
years to come it may continue with
like prosperity and also that for many
years its staff may meet its little
friends and fellow workers at their
Thanksgiving feast.
