Yet Miss Rives never allowed herself

Yet Miss Rives never allowed herself
to be overcome by disappointments.
She possessed that rare ability in man
or woman, OF making the best of a
bad bargain" and always succeeded in
~extricating herself from unpleasant sit
uations when other girls of her age
were ready to fail, crushed with en-
barrassment and thwarted ambition.
An interesting story is told of how, n
day. when she had barely turned six
teen, finding her favorite horse was
lame, she Joined a hunting party on a
d"ock-tailed mule, and, with the aid Of
a polo club brought him in triumphant
ly at the death.
She was the pride of her father. Colo
mel Stephen Rlves. n of the largest
tobacco growers in the Blue Grass
State" Busted with his vast interests
Colonel Rives petted his little wildcat"
and delighted in her ufgovernable will.
There mas always been a rare affection
between these two. The father learned
TO turn to the daughter for advice in
the management of his affairs; and the
daughter grew closer to the parent on
account of this very confidence i'm
posed in her.
Unfortunately for the family Mrs,
Riyes was an invalid. Erminie, as she
was know to her friends, was the only
child and grew up self-willed and
"headstrong," full of eccentricities and
a prey to strange moods. Yet, it is as
serted by tAose who know her. she
permitted herself to be disagree
able to those around her. Every one
understood and loved her and her WORD
in some way always seemed TO De
law"
In personal appearance Miss Rivcs is

was spoken Of as a candidate for tie
vice-presidency and this story was
copied by papers all over the United
States. After that Miss Rives con.rlo-
uted articles to several magazines
which brought her name prominently
before the public as a writer.
Never satisfied with the success
which has come to her, however, she is
as faithful a student as in the early
days of her literary efforts and works
indefatigably.
In the society circles of the South.
East. North and West. Miss Rives is
equally well known and a great sayor-
tie. She is talented unsteady, an ac-
complished linguist, and an expert at
all kinds Of outdoor sports. At present
she makes her home in New York,
where she has a studio in enc OF the
most fashionable parts of the city.

of gold and silver. There was one made
to order the other day, consisting of a
miniature tiger, showing it's teeth. The
animal was made of amber and black
enamel, and the teeth were tiny chip
diamonds; it's tail was curved, and it's
whole position expressed anger.
Of course the tiger creation was very
expensive, but the less expensive pieces
in hat pins are pretty and dainty.
The bears head, with tire pointed
nose of black enamel and eyes of ru-
bies, is unique. The. wolf, the bird,
and in fact all the animals we have,
are represented on the hat pin; even
the elephant finds place there.
There has never before been such a
year of animal jewelry; and, strange to
say, the o~ld-fashioned heavy gold of
our grandmother's time is coming back
and we see the heavy lockets suspend
ed from the massive chain.
The bracelet of the coming years will
be a band about a quarter of an inch
wide; it will be of dull Roman gold,
and will lie fat on the wrist; a jewel
OF some kind will stud it; dark rubies
and garnets will be used mostly for
this and will add to the rich, dull, lus-
tire OF the gold.
The Wells of Winter.
In the gauzy goods called wells there
are new patterns.
The mesh of the winters veil will not
be either extremely large or small, but
just a comfortable size.
The chiffon veil with black dots of
medium size, bordered with a design in
dots, will be used much.
The cream lace veil, with an ap-
pliqued point of leaves, also in scroll
patterns, will be tied, or pinned loosely
about the hat, the ends free to blow
out in the wind.
There are elaborate wells in black
net; one of these is the design of a
spider in its web, carried out in black
dots There is another with a border
of swallows on the wing. But it ear
not be said that they are exactly pretty
when worn. They look charming in the
stores, but when once over the face the
patterns almost always become indi-
tinct; and the plain dotted veil is pre-
ferable.
The bright royal blue veil which has
been worn with the green gauze around
the hat, will still be popular; and in
the winter cold the thick chiffon Will
not be Objectionable.
Embroidered wells will also be worn;
and an ingenious girl can have the
chiffon Stamped in any pattern s1e
may desire; and, then, in the finest
silk, embroider the border which should
be about half an inch in depth.
For the embroidered wells a white
ground will be mostly used. and the
embroidery will be in soft Persian
shades and Oriental designs. The pine
apple point. and The Greek border CT
squares viii be very popular.

The most talked about young

course, its criticisms and its braves.
