The Parisians cannot submit to strictly tailored dress for women, and give to even the tailored shirt waie. feminine touches to detract from se- verity. They add to the sporting waist a linen collar and a tie of sheer lawn, of such prettiness as to look any- thing but mannish. It IS the French that have brought about the return os the high turn-down linen collar. but fI is an embroidered linen. if you please: and worn with 1t tie of sheerest lace lawn, lace edged, or a row of perky little bows. The combination of fluffy eravat and stiff collar is really very good. to be recommended; 1t gives a dainty, fresh look, and softens the face.

The deep eufYs and fancy chemisette are stiIi considered good style, but oftener now the ehemisette is worn outside. The other day at matinee we could no. help noticing the daintiness of ths neckvare worn by a very trim young gfir. and thought how much nicer such things looked when worn-and worn right-ihan when merely displayed in . glass case.

WOMEN AsTRIDE IN FIELD.
Danas of the English Hunt Still Stick to Their Divided
 Skirts.

Hunting circles in England-an1 they embrace this year an even great CT proportion than usual of the fash ionable set-once again are keenly ex- ercised about the question of women riding astride, and though the popular prejudice against the practice is a5 strong as ever, those who advocate it are championing their faith with the courage that is at least conspicuous, says the New York Press. All the principal packs have representatives of sartorial division as appalling say the conservatives, as would follow on the granting of home rule to Ire- land. The Rytchley and the Quorn. the Blackmore Vale and the V. w. H. -as those who follow the Vale of tho White Horse love to call themselves have drowned as vainly as ungallantly on the fair pioneers, who come to their meets in long frock coats tha. just show neat top boots resting in stirrups on-the horror of it-both sides of mans hunting saddle. The notwithstanding D'annas still stick to their guns and their-by courtesy divided skirts" and in spite of the outcry of the doctors, in spite of sad suspicion of unholy satisfaction on the part of the field when one of the "straddlers" comes to grief. many of these riders are going so straight and so strong that they are slowly but surely finding more imitators every week.

by scurry of hoofs, mad lashing of quirts and scramble and rush of frightened steeds, a cursing of fu- rious tongues, her own brave young voice rang out on the night. This way, sergeant! Help-Quick!"
 Black forms of mounts. and riders sped desperately away. and then with all the wiry, sinewy strength of her 1.-the and slender form, Esther hurled herself upon another slender figure, speeding after these, afoot. Desperately she clung to it in spite of savage blows and strainings. And so they found her, as forth they came "a rush of shrieking, startled. can dle-bearing women-of bewildered and unconsciously blasphemous men of the guard-her arms locked firmly about girl in semi-savage garb. The villain of the drama had been whisked away, leaving the woman who sought to save him to the mercy of the foe.

One sees 30 many contradictory things said about corsets, it may be well to mention that the oid-fashioned high busted corset has not returned to favor. It is still the flat abdomen the straight front. To be sure the Empire gowns demand higher bus: 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 shirting, promises to be revived-ani a neat. useful garment 1t is, too. Mulls of delicate colors are to be worn, and we feel almost sure colored shirtings will in oourse 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 plail 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 Economist, and Is an excellent model The skirt has plaited panels of plain cloth. the waistcoat is of check.
 An effective trimming. and inexpen- sive, is coarse linen galloon on whicn are worked oriental devices in gay colors. Ecru and gray are the fla vorite linens, and sometimes tinsel thread is used to outline the desion.
 This spring we have The four-pieca suit-skirt, waists, two coats. The waist is made of lighted material than the suit, one coat is very short, the other long enough for evening wear. A handsome lightweight cloth cos tune is a splendid investment, suit

Whatever the fate of Lame Woif's fighting fierce. now pressed by Henry's column, far in the southward hills, here in sight of the broad Big Horn valley, the white chief had struck vital blow. Village, villagers, wounded and prisoners were all the spoil of the hated soldiery. Here at the scene of Blake's minor affair there appeared still in saddle just one undaunted, unconguered amazon whose black eyes flashed through the woolen hood that hid the rest of her face, whose lips had uttered as yet no sound, but from whom two soldiers recoiled at the cry of third. Look at the hand of her, fellers! It's winter than mine!"

 For all answer Blake received one quick, stinging slap in the face from that mittenless little right hand.
