The Tartar Oueue.

Herbert Allen Giles, in China and
the Chinese" says that there are
strange misconceptions as to the mean
ing of the Chinese queue. which has
really been worn by that nation for
only about $50 years.
1t was imposed by the Manchu Tar
tars, the present rulers of China, as a
badge of conquest. Previous to 1914
he Chinese clothed themselves and
dressed their hair like the modern Jap
anese; that is, like the Japanese who
still wear what is Incorrectly known as
the beautiful native dress of Japan"
AS a matter of fact, the Japanese Dor
rowed their dress. as we'll as their lit
erature. philosophy and early art, from
the Chinese. The Japanese dress is
that of the Ming period in China, 1868
to 1914.
But where did the Manchu Tartars
get the queue? They depended. as a
race, almost for their existence upon
the horse. The accepted theory is that.
of gratitude and respect for his
noble ally. the Tartar, SO far as he
could, took on himself the equine form,
and grew a queue in imitation of a
horses tail. This somewhat grotesoue
theory might fall to the ground, save
that 1t is supported by striking evil
dence.
Official coats, as seen in China at
the present day. are made with pecu-
liar sleeves, shaped like a horses leg.

covering the hand, which are known
as horseshoe sleeves" Encased there

Every year hired carriages are be-
coming more in demand in New York.
An amazingly small Number of the pri-
vate vehicles seen on the avenue in the
afternoons or in the park belong to the
persons who are in them. The con-
venience of hired vehicles is enough to
compensate many persons for the loss
of the pleasure of owning their own
horsef1esh. They are TO be had at all
hours, and persons who hesitate to take
out their OWL horses at certain times
have no hesitation in making use of
hired horses. Then there is the question
of ailing horses, which never need trou-
BILE a person who hires his carriage. If
n horse is sick. another is always ut
hand. The difficulty of keeping satisfac-
tory coschmen is also transferred to
the shoulders of the stablekeeper. The
stables that make a speciality of letting
vehicles by the season are always will
ing to provide an entirely new vehicle.
which is. of course. kept exclusively
the use of the person who has en-
gagged it, and with these advantages
there is said to be no more expense.

TWO BLUE A
Tho Owners Met in a Great Depart
ment Store.

Bargain day in a city is generally
productive of comedies and tragedies,
which appeal especially to the feminine
mind. But at least one man, who vas
stranded near the door of a big Bos-
ton department store, waiting for his
wife, witnessed an incident which
cheered his spirit.
Near him was a handkerchief coun-
ter, and as he idly watched the tide
of women surging round it. his glance
was arrested by a remarkably pretty
and somewhat conspicuous blue jack
ct, curiously braided in black. He
gazed ut it with approval for some
moments. as the .WCGrer's back was
toward him most of the time.
At last he looked away. As he
turned his eyes toward the door, his
glance fell upon another blue jacket
exactly like the first. The woman who
was wearing it was just entering the
store. lie glanced back to the hand
kerchief counter. There was the
other jacket, and what was more,
the eyes of the woman who wore it
were fixed Oh the approaching coun-
terpart of her own garment. As she
looked. an expression of anger and
disgust crossed her face, and the man
who was waiting said TO himself,
"There's trouble ahead"
The two women approached each
other slowly. but with evident inten-
ton. The wearer of the second jack
ct had a coneiliatory air as she pre-
tended to examine a fur scarf that
hung near the door.
she won't speak unless the other
one Does" thought the man, but he
was mistaken. When the woman from
the handkerchief counter reached her,
the other suddenly turned with a smile
on her face.

she said, impulsively. you are the
