TASTE AS TO OYSTERS.
Various Ways In Which the RivaIves Are
Abused by Various Consumers.

The oyster season is now open and
the luscious bivalves are on the market
in good numbers. How to eat oysters
| is a problem that has been the lifetime
study of the proprietor of an avenue
hostelry. Nowhere in the city is this
burning problem more fully threshed
out than in this oyster HEADQUARTERS,

When they die and are forgotten in

of the place.

a sprinkling of Cayenne. These are no
more unusual with those who eat oyst-
ers six days in a week than is the prac-

This gave rise to the question one
day by one of a party Of four to an

lines almost entirely by means of ex-
ercise. This is her first occupation
in the morning. Her maid always
opens the windows of her drawing
room. Then, wearing very thin wool

purpose, Mrs. Langtry goes through
a series of motions which she has
practiced for years. Standing up, she
touches the floor with the tips of her
fingers twenty times, keeping her body
rigid. except at the waist. Then she
performs similar evolutions, always
with her arms outstretched.
She makes no particular sacrifices at
dinner save that she usually avoids
sweets and always gives the prefer
ence to substantial and plain food.
81 tried the Schweninger treatment
once" Mrs. Langtry said the other
day, land i concluded from the way I
felt for year afterward that I needed
plenty of food, whatever might hap
pen. The other Sunday I felt I had
eaten rather too hearty a luncheon,
and although it was pouring rain I felt
must have exercise. So my brother
and I walked from the Hotel Neither

almost the only people in Central Park,
and the policemen looked astonished to
see us walking through the rain. But
I felt splendid afterward I would
always rather take muscular exercise

starvation"
Shape1iness is more important to a
woman in this country than in any
other. Singers in Germany, and to a
certain degree in France, may grow to
almost any size without lessening the
affection in which they are held by
their admirers. Amalia Materna was
a monstrosity OF flesh in the later
years of her career, but she would have
been singing Kundry and Isolde to this
day if her voice had not failed. Many
Of the German singers are heroic in
size, but it has never occurred to them
that their proportions are not ideal for
the characters they are portraying.
But for the American public they
can be too large. Minnie Tracy learn
ed this when, after having grown very
large without alternating her French
admirers, she came to sing in New
York. Then she had to go home to
get thin. Here corpulency is nearly
always fatal and has to be got rid of
in one way or another. The only inn
portant thing is the selection of the
best way of doing it.

The other day, lady, while shopping,
accidentally picked up another lady's
umbrella from the counter, and had the
mistake pointed out to her rather
frigidly. She returned the umbrella
with apologies, and then remembered
that she had no umbrella with her at
all. But as it had begun to rain, she
bought one for herself, as we'll as one
for a birthday present for some one
else. With the two umbrellas in her
hand, she boarded a car, and, as luck
would have it, sat down opposite the
very lady whose umbrella she had in
advertently picked up earlier in the
day. The coincidence was too much for
the other lady. 81 congratulate you on
your successful morning" she said,
sarcastically, as she swept out of the
car. Innocence should have asserted
itself; but the rightful owner of the two
umbrellas found herself so embarrassed
that she was speechless. Appearances

life he visited Washington, District of
Columbia, in company with Robert c.
Winthrop, and both of the venerable
men visited the Senate chamber on
the occasion of some ceremonies which
crowded the galleries with people, so
that they were unable to obtain seats.
They sent their cards to Mr.. Evarts,
hoping that he might arrange a place
for them, and when he met them in
the marble room he explained the diff

the Senate admit to the floor of the
chamber only members of the two
Houses of Congress, members Of the

the thanks of Congress, and private Sec
retaries to Senators. I can not get you
admission in any other capacity, but

and remunerative employment as my

statesman accepted, and Mr.. Evarts
took them to the door, where he adj

that they are both very green and ig-
