thought 1t would bring back old recol-
lections to him and give us taste of
country life in the south IL he invited
all of us, performers, managers, freaks,
and everything, to spend the day on
his plantation, and go nutting for
chestnuts and hickory nuts, pick apples
and run them through cider mill and
drink self-made cider, and have good
time.
We all appreciated the invitation,
and after breakfast we rode out in the
country to his plantation in carriages
and express wagons and began to do
the plantation. The fat lady and the
midgets rode out together in load Of
cotton, and when they got to the house
they had to be picked, like ducks, and
they looked as though they had been
tarred and feathered.
The planter gave us fine luncheon
of fried chicken and corn pone, and
cider, and pa acted as the boss of the
circus folks, while the planter and his

family, with about 100 negroes, passed
things around. They all seemed to be
interested in seeing how much stuff
the fat lady and the giant could hold
without putting up sideboards to keep
the food from falling off, If pa hadn't
told the negroes not to feed the fat
lady and the giant any more, there
would have been two circus funerals
the next day.
I got acquainted with boy that was
the planters son, and while the rest
were eating and drinking the boy
showed me pack of hounds that are
kept for trailing criminals and negroes
who have looked sassy at white wom-
en-. The trouble with negroes is that
they all look alike, and If one COM
mits a crime they can prove an alibi,
cause every last negro will swear that
at the time the crime was committed
the suspected man was attending a
prayer meeting, so they have to have
hounds that can be taken to the place
where the crime was committed, and
they ind the Negroes track, and they
follow it till they tree him. The
hounds do not bite the negro, like we
xssd 70 hear about, but they just t3l.

waist linen collar and a tie of sheer
lawn, of such prettiness as to look any

the high turn-down linen collar, but Il

and worn with it a tie of sheerest

fluffy cravat and stiff collar is really
very good, to be recommended; 1t gives
a dainty, fresh look, and softens the

Lave frills adorn the front Of the
up-to-date gown, the old-fashioned ia

flufiness are attached, making their
adjustment to the dress very easy

deep cuffs and fancy chemisette are
still considered good style, but oftener
now the chemisette is worn outside.

short one and less elaborate than usu

gave her feet dose of anise seed that
ought to have paralyzed a pack of
hounds. She wanted to hug me and
let me kiss her, but said / passed,
and she said she would do as much for
me some time.
About this time the planter took the
lead, and they all went across pas
ture into the woods, and began knock
ing nuts off the trees. All through
the woods there were signs: ''No Tres
passing" and Beware Of the Dogs, "
but the planter said to never mini
the signs. l told the boy to let the
dogs loose on the trail in about half
an hour, and I went along with the
folks, and told pa l had seen pack
of bloodhounds that would eat people
alive, and if he heard hounds barking
to run like whitehead and climb a
tree. 1 got with the giant, who is

him the only trouble about these
great plantations in the south was the
wild dogs that inhabited the noun
tains, that would not hesitate to attack
a man if they got good and hungry,
but there was no danger to him, be-
cause he was a good Splinter, and
could outrun a jack rabbit. The giant
wanted to go back to the house, cause
he said he didn't want to run no foot

but L told her, as friend, not to
load herself down with nuts, but to
travel light, so If the wild dogs came
down to raid the plantation she could
crawl in hole out of sight till the
doar had eaten some of the men. She
came near fainting right there, before
the dogs got busy.
There were about 20 negroes throw
ing clubs at the nuts, and everybody
was having a big time. The trapeze

trail white man without hurting

woods he would put the hounds on

to get up trees, or have their pants

about it. l went to pa, and told him

A SPRING MODEL

One sees so many contradictory
things said about. corsets, it may be
well to mention that the old-fashioned
high-busted corset has not returned
to favor. 1t is still the flat abdomen,
the straight front. To be sure the
Empire gowns demand higher bust
than mere girdle can give, but those
that affect the Empire should keep a
corset specially for this mode, not
make use Of it with dresses having the
normal waist line. There really Is
little change noticeable in corsets,
though the extreme dip front is thing
quite of the past
The old plain shirt waist, made of
shifting, promises to be revived-ani
a neat, useful garment it is, too. Mulls
of delicate colors are to be worn, and
we feel almost sure colored shirtings
will in course of time become very
popular, and shove into the background
the white waist that has ruled SO long.
Some time ago we called attention
to the probable vogue this spring OF
the checked or plaid skirt with plah
Jacket. This promises to be the model
walking costume of the season, and is
both jaunty and neat. The illustration
here given appeared in the Dry Goods

cloth, the waistcoat is of check.
An effective trimming, and inexpen-

thread is used to outline the DESIGN.
