Then No. 1 had another turn, and of
course she picked Blue Girl, that being

That sort of thing oughtn't to be en-
couraged.
For the fourth race, the Belmont
Stakes, No. had a terrible time choosing
horse. She said she didn't care for any
of the names, though she inclined to All
Green. because 1t made her think of
themselves. You know All Green was
somewhere up there on the hill when
Commando and Parader finished the race.
L wish she had stuck to old slowboy.
But she didn't. For once she looked
up the jockeys and the moment she saw
them she jumped at Spencer, because
she said that the day before she had put
on a spencer waist, or something ike
that, of her monther's. and it had been q
perfect fit. Therefore she knew that
Spencer was bound to win.
Now you know you can't get around
that kind of logic. OF course. thanks to
mothers spencer waist, Commando gal
loped in ahead of Parader and the women
made even money.
You remember the fifth race with Con
roy, Blues, and DR.. Barlow of course

Then the two men stared out of the
window sadly. A horse race is not a
place where masculine reasoning powers

A Congress of Cakes.

A club of bright young school teachers
recently gave a novel party. which made
the hit of the season in their neighbor-
hood 1t was called cakes and cream
social The invitations invited to an ice
cream evening. and the postscript added
a request which gave hint of the fun to
come. 1t said: Please come represent
ing some sort of cake"
on the evening of the party every cake
in the cook book turned out in honor Of
the occasion, says writer in the Bog

charming white dress with veil and
orange flowers. Pancake wore a number
of wee cooking instruments as a fringe

sent gems
Angel cake appeared to float into the
room by means of her feathery tissue
paper wings. Plum cake carried a plumb
line. White mountain cake wore, pinned
70 her gown, a book of views taken in
the White Mountains.
Cinnamon bun carried box Of Gin
nGmon and a bath bun in her hands.
Minute cake came with large clock

was discovered to be flannel cake. And
so the merry list went on
No cake revealed its identity IN first
arriving, but was particularly asked to
keep this secret. Every member of the
company received pencil and paper, with
request to write down the names of all
the cakes he recognized This merry
guessing required a full two hours during
which ice cream in all popular favors
was passed upon a tray by the maid.
AT the end of the allotted time each
cake delivered up to the hostess list of
the other sweetmeats present These lists
were carefully read and compared by the
mistress of ceremonies.
There We're two prizes. In the case Of
the ladies the reward took the form of q
dainty cookbook containing recipes for
cakes only. The lucky gentleman was
given handsome silver cake knife.
More ice cream and cakes followed af-
ter which the hostess called upon her
guests to pair off for cake walk
Three times the paired couples circled
the room. each couple endeavoring to out
do the other in Ostentatious parade. Three
Judges appointed from the household cir
Gle watched the performance and decided
the prize-a handsome fruit cake, cover
ed and decorated with chocolate icing.
Each member uT the party who failed
to distinguish himself by receiving prize
was given. as a consolation, a gingerbread
man with features formed of cloves and
other spices. These gingerbread men
were prettily tied with scarlet ribbon.

The Wedding shoe.

THE custom of throwing an old shoe
after the welded couple for luck is a re-
markably widespread one. but il is not
always as pleasant 4 feature of the cere-
mony rs one has come 10 imagine" said
a Young lawyer of New Orleans, who has
a penchant for folk lore.
Not long ago 1 ran across a curious
custom which is said to prevail to some
extent even yet in villages of Southern
France It's this way: After the cere-
mony the bride is escorted to her new
home by her girl friends and left alone:

his friends, Ia next led TO a point couple

a halt is made. There the girls rejected

while the groom. ducking his head makes
a dash for the house. The disgruntle5
suitor throws as hard and as true as pcI
sibe and the crowd cheers or derides, acs
cOrding to the success of the shot
"A wooden shoe Is formidable missile
in the hands of an angry swain. and
husband is justified in having some mis-
giVings as he sees his defeated rival prsrc-
tising up In anticipation of the wedding
day. Just think, though. how great re-
lief II would be. even in this country, 10
take crack at the fellow who had done
You out of your best girl, without having
the police step in. over there the custom
has wider meaning Ii signifies that the
last Ill feeling is thus thrown away and
it is the depth of disgrace for the man
who has thrown the shoe TO harbor any
further m9lice against the young couple.

lowed in Germanyand France is a secret

a hrst quality patent calf, If not exposed
10 sudden changes of temperature, will
wear quite as well as the ordinary calf
The quality may be judged from the bril-
nancy Of the jet black If the Japan has
a blush cast, depend upon it the quality
is not hrst-claSs, and let not the smooth
tongued salesman deceive you.
Kangaroo is another of fashions ia
yorltes. 1t was first used in the manu-
1acture of shoes abou- twenty-five years
ago, since which time II has gradually
grown IN favor. As il has won public IA
Nof entirely by its merits. it will doubt
less retain its popularity for some years
1t has the virtue of being both durable
and very easy to the foot It's strength is
SO great as to defy the power of ordinary
men to tear.
Cordovan has taken the place of aIliga-
tor for wear in wet weather This is also
largely imported from Germany 1t is
made from certain parts of the horse hide

retains the shape of the last until the
shoe is worn out. Formerly it was very
expensive, but recently the tanners have
conquered many of the difficulties in pre-
paflng the hide, and with reduced cost
1t is now popular.
This season, in all the many original
designs for tasteful footgear, ooze calf
plays a conspicuous part. It's soft, vel
vety feeling and appearance no doubt
commend ii TO the favor Of tine fair sex.
1t is really calf, small skins of fine fibre
being selected. The dyes are percolated
or ooZed through it; hence its name. The
Velvety feeling is given to the flesh side
by a series Of sandpaperings. while the
grain side of the skins IS slightly peb-
bled. This permits of many combinations
from the same skin. The peculiar tex
ture OF a calfskin permits of its being
dyed a fast color in any color and shade
from jet black to a bright orange or
cream white. Grey, tan, and russet are
most in demand. Not only is ooze calf
being used in the manufacture of shoes
but it is now used to quite an extent by
the makers of albums, pocketbooks, hand
bags, card cases. pen wipers, and a thou
sand other novelties.

In her choice of leather Dame Fashio 4
shows the same tickle mind as in her Sc
lection of other wearing apparel. Last
year very pronounced demand was ex-
perienced for Russia leather, but this
season it appears from inquiries made at
several Of the leading shops in town that
patent leather has the call.
The better grades of patent leather
shoes are made from patent calf. No
patent calf is made in this country. Some
years ago the tanners here spent consid-
cradle money ia trying TO make a patent
calf that would compare favorably in
quality with the imported article, but
were unable to do it. Patent leather and
patent calf must not be confounded. OF
the former large quantities are made
here 1t being tanned from cowhide, while
the latter is from calfskin. During the
process Of tanning they are stretched,
