A CAKE WALK.

Higbee apartment. There the flush
and bloom Of newness were oppressive
to the right-minded. All smelt of the
shop. Here the dull tones and decor
GUS lines caress and soothe instead Of
overwhelming the Imagination with
effects too grossly literal. Here ia the
veritable spirit of good form.
Throughout the house this contrast
might be noted. 1t Is the brown-stone,
high-stoop house, guarded by a cast
iron fence, built in vast numbers when
the world Of fashion moved north to
Murray Hill and Fifth venue a gen.
Grafton ago. One OF these houses was
like all the others inside and out, built
OF unimaginative builders architec-
ture." The hall, the long parlor, the
back parlor or library, the high stuc-
coed ceilings-not only were these alike
in all the houses, but the furnishings,
too. were apt to be of q sameness in
them all. rather heavy and ta~steless,

should be meant to serve, and never

in a vast cloak, and accompanied By
her two nephews, whom Percival Binos
recognizes for the solemn and taciturn
young men he had met In Shepler's
party at the mine.
Mrs. Gwilt-Athlestap, albeit a deo-
orative personality, is constructed on
the same broad and generously race
full lines as her own victoria. The
fair-minded observer would accept as
sufficient promise Of a good third. Yet
hardly could a slighter person display
to advantage the famous Gwilt-Athles-
tan jewels. The rope Of pierced dia-
monds with pigeon-blood rubies strung
between them, which she wears wound
over her corsage, would assuredly over
weight the frail Fidelia Oldaker; the
tiara OF emeralds and diamonds was
never meant for a brow less majestic;
nor would the stomacher of lustrous
gray pearls and gllnting diamonds ever
have clasped becomingly a figure that
was svelte-or skinny" as the great
lady herself Is frank enough to term
all persons even remotely. inclined to
be svelte.
But let US sit and enllven a proper
dinner with talk upon topics of legit-
innate interest and genuine propriety.
Here will be no discussion of the
vulgar matter of markets, staples, and
prices, such as we perforce endured
through the overturned and too-abun-
dant repast of Higbee. Instead Of
learning what beef on the hoof brings
per hundred-weight, Z. o. b. at Chey-
enne, we shall here CLEAN at onc the
invaluable fact that while good society
in London used to be limited to those
who had been presented at court, the
presentations have now become so nu-
merous that the limitation has lost its
significance. Mrs. Gwilt-Athlestan thus
discloses, as If 1t were a triie, some
thing we should never learn at the
table of Higbee though we ate his
heavy dinners to the day of ultimate
chaos. And while we learned at that
distressingly new table that one should
keep ones heifers and sell off ones
steer calves, we never should have been
informed there that Dinard had just

The man moved on. He said some
thing about the minions of the law"
and the bloodhounds of monopoly"
but something in the expression of Po-
liceman Flynn's face convinced him
that it was wise 10 move On. Still, he
lived in that vicinity, and it was not
his nature TO remain long quiet. So a
few days later Flynn found him hold
ing forth in the same strain again,
and again he forced him to move on.
But the policeman was troubled.

Having thus explained the troubles

NOT ON

LIFE
The Horse Editor Kicks at the
Idea-But 0h!What's
the Use

A san Francisco dispatch OF July
2s saws that any woman in san
Francisco who processes to wearing
No 8 shoe can have as many pairs
As she needs by applying at the re-
lief warehouse. Fourteen hundred
pairs Of shoes, all No. S, are lying in
that warehouse waiting to be carried
away by refugees. They were sent
to San Francisco from Chicago
where. according to ancient tradi-
tion. a No. S shoe is reckoned dainty.
In the same depository for relief
supplies are hundred of dozen Of
suits of dolls underwear sent by
kind-hearted people to relieve the
distress of San Francisco. 1t is nice
underwear. apparently. The skirts
are about six inches long and you
can stretch them until they are
foot wide. They are mostly all low
neck shirts.
In the relief warehouse are also
1000 golf suits, contributed by some
tenderhearted devotee of the crook
ed stick and checked ball, who could
not think OF seismic disturbance and
wholesale confagration depriving
the population of the pleasures of
the game, and his Cor herr esthetis
soul rebelled at the thought OF the
glorious game OF Scotland being
played in other than fitting attire.
Such a profusion of warm colors
had never been seen here since the
DAYS of the dons and their bull
ights.
But the suits are here-4000 Of
em-complete from feathered head
piece to abbreviated trousers, and
hose fuzzy stocking (what's the
Scotch for 'em?) which make bank !

players.
The distribution of them was
planned, but the refugees didn't take
kindly to kits.

VENISON
SECRET
OF AGE

Grants Pass, Ore.-Deer meat
ortdoor air and plenty of work ano
.,een are the things that have maue
:. nos.ibIe for William 'Ferren, the
"rbotco packer" to reach the ripe
old age of 100 years.
This month Mr.. Ferren came down
from his mountain cabin IN the the
wi,ds Of the Chetco country to Vlsl'
ra,atives here and to celebrate his
,ootb anniversary. With him came
his mack train Of ponies and the OLD
nooler loaded them, placing the
nocts and throwing on the sacks OF
sorr and grain as adeptly and easily
as a man Of 40.
He is the oldest packer left in the
west and he has been hitting the
trail regularly for the past 90 years
Over a half century ago Ferren and
his pony carried in supplies to the
miners of Chetco from Crescent
CITY. For the past 25 years, or since
the coming of the railroad the
source of supply has changed and he
makes his trips to and from this city
instead of from the coast.
Despite his 100 years, Ferren is
still straight of back and light OF
foot. He thinks nothing Of 30 or
4O-mile tramp in a single day over
a rough mountain trial and there
are few young men who can cover
more ground on zone shift" than he.
There is no secret to it." the old
pocker declares. Let any man eat
as much deer meat as | eat, sleep
as much as | sleep. and. work as
much and as hard as | work, and he
will live to be as old as l." The old
man is a great believer in venison
as a health-giving food, and he has
always lived in the mountains where
he could always find deer when his
meat supply got low. He also be-
lieyes in always going to bed tired,
sleeping in the open air and near the
ground, where the medicine is"
Ferren is a small, wiry man. He
has a long flowing beard and head
Of heavy hair. His steel gray eyes
are as keen as those of boy, and
still hold the sparkle and merriment
Of youth. He says he does not feel
old, and never intends to feel that
way; that he has reached the age OF
100 without any trouble, and that
he sees no reason why he should not
live 20 years more, and he feel:
sure he will live that long If the
deer are not all exterminated. The
old packer only kills a deer when he
is in need of meat and declares that
II every one had done this there
would have been yenison for all and
people would have lived longer as
a consequence.
