She tore around the track with two spirited horses going at their top most speed and took the three hurdles as clean as a hunter ever cleared a fence. She admits that it is dangerous. but she considers the excitement and the thrill compensation for all the risk that she runs. One night the horn of her saddle broke and for moment disaster seemed imminent. But she quickly re- covered her balance, and the spectators never so much as knew that anything was wrong. Besides this the reckless horsewoman has other feats. She has among the rest trained one of her po- nies to take the hurdles through a ring of fire.

 Many women of the smart world do not care for low-cut dresses. When the Elm press Eugenie set the fashions of Eu- rope she drowned upon decollete old ladies, and her mother, Mime. de Montijo, never wore a low-cut bodice. The beau tiful Countess de Kessler of Paris, whose shoulders were exquisitely lovely, did not wear decolete for many years. be- cause she had delicate chest and pre- ferred caution to fashion. Mime. Broisat of the Comede Franchise never wore low-cut gowns, no matter what the play was that she appeared fin. Mime. Pan netier de Milville, Mme Porges, the Doudeauville. Mime. Paul Poirson, all women of the elegant world in Paris, seldom appear decoiletees for reasons of health and beauty. It is to be hoped that me fashion of low necked gowns will never become extinct, for many women otherwise plain have lovely necks and shoulders. and pretty woman with pre.,y shoulders is more of a delight to the eye than beauty with thick neck or painfully visible collar bones Never theless, the court of St James will seem a strange place when the poor thin dow agers or the shy debutanfes come yelled in chiffon instead of bare necked and bare armed.

' A Library of women's Books.

From the New York World.
 A cable dispatch has reported the death in St. Petersburg of a Mime. Kaissavoff, whose passing fame rests on the fact that she had collected a library of nearly 18,0v0 volumes, all written by women. No book by male author ever had place on her shelves.
 It is momentarily astonishing to read of such a library. One feels at first that the collection of books must lack variety, since so many fields of literature seem to have been in the particular and almost exclusive posses sion of masculne writers. Woman has popnlarized a number of the sciences. Even so dry and abstract topic as political economy has found it's able exponent in Harriet Martineau.
