detail Of her outfit shall be perfect for long
or difficult riding, and always the latest
thing in cut and fit, but shall never be
allowed for a second to encroach on comfort
or safety.
For warm mornings in August or in Indian
summer she permits herself any slight
variation from the formal habit You may
see her at Lakewood or out IN Westchester
or at Meadow Brook on any warm day
before noon in shirt waist black oicoth
sailor hat. and, until october, crash skirt
this, however. is for riding about country
roads or parks. For hunting or formal
riding in the city there are always the dark
cloth suit, stif hat, long coat and short
skirt.
It is an odd fact that the fad for short
skirts on wheels also contrived to shorten
equestrian skirts. At first very smart
girls wheeled a good deal, and the COM
fort Of that bicycle skirt, never in the way
nor dangerous nor heavy. prevailed against
all picturesque instincts, and skirts were
shortened an inch a semi-season, until now
it is not only allowable, but actually smart,
for a skirt to show the tip of the boot when
the girl is in the saddle.
1t is comforting thought in general
that the New York girl seems to have over
come all sense Of terror at the sight of her
own feet. When her mother rode about
slowly and demurely in picture book, trail
ing velvet equestrian robes, foot was a
shameless belonging, to be hidden from
the sight Of a man, never to be spoken Of,
or publicly acknowledged.
But the daughters of these sweetly,
strangely modest women acknowledge
themselves bipeds without a blush, and
insist upon the full comfort thereof. They
will neither pinch their feet nor hide them.
And when they go hunting it is in short
skirts, that they may have the full Joy of
swiftly following the hounds, and they do
it with coura ge and common sense and with
athletic freedom and delight,

and hair done simply as Botticelli Ma
donna, but with quart more hairpins.
For underclothes there Is just the lightest
wool union suit, then satin ribbon girdle
and riding breaches OF black satin or twilled
silk, or black equestrian tights which, by
the way, are loose and not calculated to
stop the circulation, as they were few
years ago.
Boots are black, patent or enamel leather,
round toed without a tip and sporting an
absurd high Cuban heel. And this, one
hastens to mention, Is the only real absurdity
in the whole habit suit Why woman should
ride in the sort of high heel that does not
make her foot look small and is not needed
to hang a Gathering spur from is a conun-
drum, but no boots are smart without
these two-inch, straightback heels.

green, brown will be seen again for fall

The System Of Apartment Hotels
which Is Now Popular In London.

"The problem of living will never be
solved in New York" said bachelor girl
Just back from abroad, until we have man.
sions like those in dear old London. Man
sions are really apartment hotels, but they
are differently run and they really do what
apartment hotels pretend to do. That is
they relieve one of the cares OF housekeep-
ing and at the same time they serve de-
lightfnl and well cooked meals.
Every one knows that the dining room
departments of many OF our apartment
hotels are utter failures. Even the mana
gers themselves go out to dine in restaurants.
for they can't stand the table d'hote.
in mansions in London you have your
own rooms, but the service is not from a
general hotel kitchen, and perhaps one
reason why it il 80 good is that a woman is
In charge. There are apartments of diff
ferent classes. but the system is about the
same in each.
"A housekeeper looks after the cooking
and service of the meals. which are sent to
the rooms. She will even go to market
for you If you wish and get anything you
may especially desire for dinner; but if you
are willing to take her menus you will be
sure to fare well. Each day she will see
you early III lHc VIII Itdii IL you
will be at horne that evening or if you are

mansions. Tea or coffee with cream and

But it does not taste like restaurant food

course, service is superior in England, and
American women are charmed with the
way in which domestic life moves there,
owing to the civility and honesty Of the
servants
Living in mansions, woman alone is
quite as comfortable and is as well looked
after az though she were a bachelor. Here
in America the bachelor maid is never
popular, for the reason that janitors, bell
bows and walters do not expect tips from
her.
But in mansions the servants seem to be
especially attentive o the lone women tenants
the artists and teachers and women wage
earners in the various fields that London
opens to them.
Not only do the maids in mansions look
after the rooms, light and care for the fires,
run errands and make themselves useful
generally, but they are able to act as lady's
maids and help one to dress for dinner.
Besides, they are SO willing and cheerful
that it seems quite a novel experience to
be waited on by them.

or as smart in looks az our servants. but they

An ingenious method of preserving food

agencies which bring about decomposition.

The New York girl has blue ribbon
hunter. and when fall comes and the country
turns scarlet and gold, when every yellow
lane leads down the way TO paradise and
every hill gives vistas OF purple mist hung
lands, then does she recall with tug at her
heart the cry Of the hounds and the smell
OF the world OF an autumn morning. And
chunking bubbles" on land and sea are
forgotten.
The New York girl Is no amateur hunter.
She has ridden since she could sit horse
safely. Her fearlessness she found shoot
ing out in the Northwest when she was q
small child, her fine seat she acquired on
Rotten Row, her grace is from simple,
athletic childhood and her audacity is an
inheritance from the old Leyden congrega-
ton in Holland and from Wall Street.
She has followed the hounds from Ire
land to Virginia She has hunted foxes
In Norfolk and harried hares in Devon, and
has pursued the willy anise bag at Meadow
Brook, Myopia, down at Warrenton and
with the Deep Run Club at Richmond. She
has even been in at the death at the Madison
Square Horse Show, when the brush was
q blue rosette and the course was laid over
a level country Of tan bark
And she loves hunting above all other
sports. Her horse ia her friend, the init
mate companion OF early pale rose spring
mornings. They have swung home jovially
together through gray twilghts. after
miles of glorious rum and they have
galloped past red sunsets and scurried
through Ice and snow.
They have discovered comforting club
house lights at the same moment Of raven
GUS hunger. In fact. they're just plain
chnms, and hunting Of crisp October
day is what they both love best in all the
world.
You can't hope for sympathy from a

sense OF friendliness the New York girl
prefers her hunter Of fall morning.
Having secured the love and approba-
ton of her horse and made sure that their
attitude toward life and sport is the same,
the New York girl sets out early in the
season 80 to costume herself that she shall
be as comfortable as she is smart, that every
