FEMININE BEAUTY
Maturity Has Charm Greater man
That of "Sweet Sixteen"

There is a beauty quite apart from
youth-the beauty OF the mature "o-
man. Some there are who MAINTAIN
that beauty does not reach the zenith
under the age of thirty five or forty.
In a measure this is borne out by the
events of the antique past, which may
likewise be parallel with instances OF
our own day.
Helen of Troy appeared on the scene
at the age of 40. Cleopatra was past
20 when she met Anthony. Aspasia,
married to Pericles when she was SO,
was a figure brilliant in her world for
30 wears after. When Diane de Poi
tiers was past SO she won the heart OF
Henry II, and he was but half her age.
Anne of Austria was 38 when de-
scribed as the most beautiful woman
of Europe. Mile. Mar was heralded as
the greatest of beauties at 45, and
Nine. Recamier was at her best be-
tween the ages of 35 and So Nine. de
Maintenon was 43 when united to
Louis, and Catherine of Russia was SO
when she took her seat on the throne
which she occupied for 35 years.
All these women were world famed
for their beauty and gave the lie direct
to that toothless old saw that huzzes
the power of sweet sixteen" The dew
of youth and complexion Of roses, il
must be admitted sometimes combine
in a face that is unmoving, irrespon-
sive. utterly lacking in the expression
which goes to the making of a perfect
: ly nodded visage.-Bohemian.

WILD CATTLE OF ENGLAND

Lord Tankerville has given the roy =

of his wonderful white wild cattle, on
receipt of a pledge from the society
that it would not dispose of the ami
mails or any progeny that they might
have.
His white cattle form a herd abso-
lutely unique, and have been inclosed
in the huge park around his castle of
Chillingham, in Northumberland, at
any rate since the beginning Of the
thirteenth century. and probably even
still longer.
They are the only survivors Of the
wild cattle which roamed throughout
Britain in the days of julius Caesar
that is to say, nearly 1000 years ago,
and have been kept during all these
hundreds of years of seclusion In Chill
bingham park, vigorously free from any
intermixture with alien blood. Nor is
there any record of the herd in Chill
bingham park ever having given birth
to a black calf.
The cattle are small, with very
straight backs, rough and curly coats.
and upwardly directed horns. The in
sides of the ears and muzzles are red,
are symmetrically marked with black.
They are exceedingly fierce and wild.

Our BoboIink.

The bobolink Is a summer reveler;
the bee is drunk with bloom, SO why
not he, this bacchanalian bobolink"?
There is a sort of delirium in the
summertime joy of this meadow bird
His song has been called rapturous
ecstatic, merry, sparkling and bubbling.
1t is all of these and something more.
1t is the abandon of music. The bobo-
link while singing seems to be in a
frenzy. He is tipsy with glee; he stag
gers in his fight, for he cannot rise
above the meadow on summer morn
ing without attempting to beat time
with his wings to his own music, and
the wings cannot keep the pace.
All this may seem to be exaggera :
ton. 1t isn't. No one who has seen the
bobolink on his native heather aboya
it-fairly ashake with joy and song,
ought to quarrel with the attempt here
made to give something like descrip-
ton of the exuberance the rollicking
iollity. of our friend whose Sunday
name is Robert of Lincoln.
Every poet who has been afield has
felt that he ought to do something
to immortalize the bobolink's song. The
poor bird, for all his mirth and all his
apparent heedlessness of everything
but the joy of the moment, will have,
immortality only through the medium
of his human friends. for the bobolink
in the Yeas to come may disappear +.
from the meadows of earth. The bob
olink is the reed bird of certain sec.
tions of the country and the rice bird,
of other sections. Every mile of his
way southwark in the fall is marked,
by the reports OF guns, and the raca
of bobolinks, perhaps cannot hold its
own against the persecution.-Chica !
