Thus the lady, though she cannot be

quire 1t is to be noted $50 goes the story
stilD that she only wears her artificial
skin in private life, never on the stage,
presumably owing to the fact that it
would prove serious hindrance to facial
expression of any pronounced kind either
comic or tragic. The price which the lady
is said to pay for the privilege of eter-
nal beauty is S. day.
The story of "The Rashing Kate Chase
and Her Great Ambition" is told by Will
ham Perrine in The Ladies' Home Journal
for June. Born In 1910, she early began
to exhibit a masterful spirit to study
politics, and to dream OF the possibilities
in store for her when her father Salmon
p. Chase, was proposed as a candidate
for the Presidency in 1856 and again in
1860. When he was called to a cabinet po-
siton he had been married three times,
and IL was whispered that he was about
to make a certain lady his fourth wife.
But the resolute Kate had made up her
mind that no one should step in between
her and her father, and one day when the

feel that she was an intruder that the
budding romance was bhghted, and Chase
remained a widower.
Even after Hates brilliant marriage to
Senator William Sprague, of Rhode Is
land she still cherished the ambition to
see her father installed in the White
House, and was most gracious to those
who were likely to be influential in help
ing her to advance his interests. When

tial aspirations forever, and said so, half
loosely, half reproachfully, to Senator
Sumner who had voted for the appoint

ner, in this business of shelving papa! But
never mind, win defeat you air.
In 1868 she nearly succeeded in getting
the Democratic National Convention 10
carry out her wishes. II was in session
In Tammany Hail. New York city. and
She kept in communication with it by
messengers, waiting anxiously for the mo-
ment when il was believed her father
would carry all by storm. On the fourth
day the moment seemed to have arrived,
and her heart leaped with joy. But the
expected stampede did not come, and the
impatient daughter was almost moved to
go herself to Tammany Han. Indeed,
there were afterwards some politicians
who observed that If she could have gone
among the delegates on the floor, she
might have been able at the crucical point
TO have swung the convention to the
Chief Justice. Instead. Horatio Seymour
was nominated; and Kate Sprague that
night was the most unhappy woman in
the land.
Fashion this season, says the Millinery
| Trade Review, favors innovations in all
| things. and milhners DESTROYS of combin-
ing something particularly elegant will
order for its trimming flowers not hitherto
seen on the market. l have only as yet
come across one hat ornamented with a
wreath of ivy geranium, but the idea is
certain to take on. the foliage of this
plant being extremely decorative, and the
flowers lighter and more graceful than or
binary seraniums. In this case they are
in two colors, very pale pink and red; the
capeline brim has a foundation of green
tulle entirely hidden by the foliage, where
as the crown is in pink chip. Sometimes.
1t must be owened, the desire for novelty
leads astray.
1 cannot recommend the idea of sewing
small punches Of cherries all around the
brim of hat so that the berries dangle
over the edge, although in the special in
stance referred to harmony of color is
maintained, the straw shape being green
nacre with mauve and the cherries deep
purple, almost black, with a white bloom
upon them. Much more becoming is an
other hat in dark nacre tones wreathed
round with bramble, the leaves varigated
in tone and the berries red and black
lady visiting Paderewski's villa in
Paris recently, says the Ledger Monthly,
noticed chorry stone on the mantel-
piece. She took possession of it, and had
IL set in pearls and diamonds as a relic
of the master. A few weeks later Pad
erewsl1i met this lady, who. in the course
of conversation, showed him the cherry
stone, with its elegant setting. But,

It will cost those who desire TO be ''in
the swim the coming season a pretty
penny to keep themselves in gloves. II
is announced that one of the costly dress
accessories of a grande toilette this sum-
mer is to be long, fngerless gloves of
real lace, dressing up the arm In two
lengths-one TO the elbow, the other hav-
ing the same length as the longest of
evening gloves. Exquisite duchesse lace
seems to have been chosen for the finest
of these novel gloves. They are specially
designed at the top of the arm in a fit
ting border, and over the top of the hand,
where the laco falls, that border edge is
equally suitable and beautiful. The long
est of these gloves are 800 a pair. while
those OF elbow length sell for $50 and $50
the pair, owing to a trifing increase OF
the arm length between the two, and a
$40 advance in price for that reason alone.
Iacemakers no doubt will be kept busy
making over Chantilly barbs and scarves
or nouncing lace into these gloves, both
in black and white. In fact, all our real
laces in short lengths may be turned to
account in this way at a moderate cost.
