gram was the song and fantasy, "The Daisies" rendered by the little ones of the school. Surely, the power of love for their teachers is wonderful, when even the most careful training can enable those little tots to face such an audience and perform their allotted task without quiver or break. After the Awakening of the Birds," pianos and orchestra, by Masters Bert Rabbit and Charlie Dutton and Misses Susan McGonigle and Rose lyn Bart, the "Arkansaw Traveller" held the boards to the amusement of the audience, Masters Edwin Babbitt, Thomas Manning and Joe Rabbit creditably exploiting the comicalities incident to life in the backwoods of that state.
 The blue and white studies in posing by the pretty and graceful young la- dies of the physical culture class of the school was the next number, and it was very prettily and interesting ly rendered.
 The Myosotis waltzes, rendered by the orchestra, with Master Bert Bab- bitt and Miss May Devine at the pianos, was followed by the drama, ''The Girl of Our Times," with Misses Roselyn Bart, Susan McGonigle, Grace Treat, Grace Kidd, Mary Bart, Althia Manning, Nellie Gallery, May Devine, Marguerite Rabbit, Grace Kidd, Mary Kidd and Jennie Paddock in the cast, which was 8 moral lesson excellently introduced. The young ladies did finely throughout, and, while especial mention would be inju- dicious in the extreme, there were some of the young ladies whose work evinced degree of dramatic talent that was positively startling, under the circumstances.

HAIR NETS ARE IN AGAIN,
tEeoessary TO Keep the Athletic airir
Locks from Coming Loose

Heoessary TO Keep the Athlete aisir
Locks from Coming Loose
Some thirty-hve years or so ago
Mllady's hair was so arranged that a
net for combining It was necessary.
When the fashion changed the net dis
appeared and no one ever expected to
see a revival. But the up-to-date ath-
letic girl moves her head violently as
well as her body, and an hour OF ex-
ercise is more than likely to shake
her hair tresses loose. Therefore the
hair net has been revived for the pur-
pose of keeping the Psyche knot in
shape. Thus, after nearly half CEN
fury OF disuse, and though thought to
be permanently out Of fashion, the
hair net is coming in again. In mere
ly masculine eyes this may not seem
important, and many men have prob
ably never noticed the nets that are
now being worn. But to womenkind
It is matter OF great interest for the
now fashion has arisen suddenly, and
It is quite radical It comes over from
Paris and is really part and portion
OF the feminine athletic tendency of
these times. Perhaps 1t may even
mean the death of the present elabo-
rate black hairpins. In any event it
will follow that fewer Of these hair
pins are to be used. for the coming of
the net signifies that the hairpin Of to-
day, as applied to the back hair Of the
modern girl, has been a good deal Of a
failure and can no longer be depended
upon. 1t was all very we'll when girls
walked and moved quietly. Then
hairpins could do their work. But
now the athletic girl has constant fear
that her hair is coming undone" and
hence the hair net.

port Cienfuegos is pronounced by the
Spaniards as we should pronounce it

Cubans do not always follow the lisp

ausen Marguerite Of italy Mas TWO
BsautisuI AnEora Cats,

Bsautfsul Angora Cats.
In st. Nicholas there is an account
Of fine Angora cat, named "Pussi-
nella," owned by a little italian girl.
The article says: The parents of
"Pussinella" had been brought from
Bagdad by the Prince OF Naples to his
mother, the good and beautiful Queen
Marguerite OF Italy. And a most orig
inal gift It wasl for these two cats,
though very beautiful, were as wild
and ferocious as young tigers, and not
at all disposed to take kindly to cap
tivity, though their prison was royal
palace, and their keeper the gentlest
and loveliest of women. When the
cage in which they had Travelled so far
was opened, they were nothing dRunt-
ed at finding themselves at court and
right in the presence Of royalty, but
Kissed and raised their backs, and
showed their displeasure in the most
decided way. The king and queen and
many Of the ladies even got down on
their knees and made all sorts Of over
lures Of peace; but 1t was Of no use;
the strangers we're not to be cajoled
into even a semblance Of goodwill,
and at last were carried OF, still growl-
ing and protesting, to the queens own
apartments, which were for the future

tainly think they would be well con-
tentl but not 80; they longed for the
freedom of their native wilds. Perhaps
there they were king and queen them
selves, and had ruled right royalty
over mighty kingdom. Who knows7
In time they became accustomed to tho
queen, and submitted without protest
to her presence. Il r. seldom that
kindness and gentleness do not over
come the widest heart, But with the
king they were ever the same as at
Grst. They always growled and snarl-
ed, and raised quite a rebellion against
his coming into any room where they
might be. After a while two little kit
tens came to make them feel more at
home Pussinella was one Of these,
and, as you see, first opened her eyes
in the queens own bedroom, surround
ed by every mark OF respect and royal
ty. Is 1t strange that her heart swell
ed with pride and eoldAess toward the
less favored world; that the majestic
wave Of her tail showed a conscious
ness OF Superiority; that she demanded
and accepted as simply her right the
best to be had? Remember, she is
only a cat; might not many a little
boy or girl act in way that was quite
rs unreasonable? Pusslnella was the
prettier of the two kittens; little,
soft, pure white ball, with long, silky
hair. beautiful, big gray eyes, and a
tail not like any ordinary cat--no, In
deedl Pussinella's tail is as big as the
end Of boa, and Of a soft dove-color;
and she has also one spot of the same
pretty gray right in the middle Of her
back. This is now about the size of
