There are riding suits and riding
suits, and If you contemplate adding
one or two of them to summer ward
robe it is best to consult an authority
ON riding togs before making a choice
Most suits are made for real service,
but even SO, there is difference be-
tween country riding and city riding.
Some are designed for occasional use,
where their display will give pleasure
to the woman conscious of their
charm. The fad for sports clothes Is
reflected in dashing outfits that are
becoming and inspiring to the last de.
gree.
Practically all young women and
girls ride astride; few-and the num-
ber is lessening-still wear skirts and
cling to the sidesaddle. One occasion
al horsewoman is able to ride well

demand is for riding breeches, in such
preponderance that even the divided

Just as soon as the young adven.
turer in life has learned to stand
alone, or even earlier, it is time to put
him in rompers. Dresses are in the
way, and make the business of learning
60 walk or to creep more difficult than
1t should be. The greater part of the
time of babyhood is spent in rompers
in those up-to-date homes where good
sense governs.
There is a really wonderful variety
in styles for rompers. Those who de.
sign them contrive to stamp them as
boyish or girlish. even for the young.
est wearers. They fasten in most
unexpected places and are made to
wash and iron with the least possible
trouble. One may have a choice of
patterns, including the models classed
as play suits" with fastening at the
back or front. or those that slip on over

of the legs. For the youngest wear

brown or white).
There is choice in length of coat,
but If one chooses to be exactly cor
rect, the coat is short enough to show
eight inches of the breeches, unmount-
ed, and six in the saddle. There is a
variety in coat models, among them
the Norfolk and the English styles,
and the coats for suits intended both
for hunting and riding. A practical
and dressy suit is pictured, made of
hard-twilled serge in black and white
check, with an adjustable cape.
Riding boots of soft black or tan
calfskin, and those that lace up the
front, belong to the regulation outfit
For very dressy suits patent leather is
offered, but it is less comfortable than
the others. Soft white shirts with
prim collars and mannish riding hats

pended upon to enhance the good looks

model fastens at the back and at the
crotch with buttons and buttonholes.
The narrow leather belt gives shapeli-
ness to the straight one-piece garment,
and decidedly boyish air to the wear
er, so the comfort of the little lad of
year and a half is assured.
The rompers shown are made of cot

of the same fabric. White rompers

cotton are used for them. Sleeves are
likely to be short for summer wear
and pattern companies make their
patterns to be cut with either long or
short sleeves.

Life on the VaterIand.

Anyone who imagines that life on
board the Vaterland, the largest steam
ship in, the world, which has been
locked in Hoboken since the outbreak
Of the war, is rather dull affair at
the present time will have a pleasant
surprise should an opportunity present
itself for visit to the mighty liner.
These opportunities are few and far
between. No one is permitted to APP
proach the Hamburg dock, so carefully
is the Vaterland guarded from cranks
and fanatics, unless possessed of some
magic password. At present there are
more than 200 persons on board who
are making it their home. In every
way they have many more comforts
than in a hotel, and indeed, the Water.
land is more like palace than ship.
One Of the chief attractions on board
during the hot weather is the swim
ming pool, and as there is no POSSIBLE
ity Of shark finding its way into the
water anyone wishing to take a daily
dip may do so with entire peace Of
mind.-New York Times.

Rsnald for Her Trouble.

Mrs. Lyle Perry of Flatrock township
is teacher in the schools at Clifford,
northeast of Columbus. Last winter
she had hen that "stole out her nest"
The hen finally selected large pile Of
anthracite coal and laid three eggs
there. Then she nursed the eggs for
the required length of time and three
chickens came out. Mrs. Perry did not
wish to lose the chickens, and she could
not leave them at home when she went
to school. So she solved the problem
by taking them with her in the morn
ing and returning them at evening I'M
til they were old enough to shift for
themselves. The chickens were
Matched in January and now one of the
pullets has been enterprising enough to
hatch out brood Of IL little chickens
to repay Mrs. Perry for her trouble

He OversIept.

An Ohio street florist was spurred
to unusual activity a few evenings
ago when at about dosing time an
important young man called and gave
an order for an elaborate bouquet.
The young man was very particular,
and said the bouquet must be ready
by z a. M, next day, as he was to
be married at 1880 a. M, and the
flowers were a necessary part Of the
ceremony.
"Now be sure to have the flowers
ready at Z a. m. will call for them,"
were his parting words.
The florist got to his store half an
hour earlier than usual next morn
ing and had the bouquet ready in the
ice box at a. m. The young man
did not arrivehat the appointed hour.
At exactly 8:45 O'Clock, the customer
rushed in painting and out of breath.

KANSAS NEEDS MORE CARS
Wheat Growers Unable to Ship Grain
Because of the Shortage in
Rolling Stock.

Wheat growers in Trego county are
at the flood tide of the greatest pros
perity wave that has ever struck
western Kansas, according to F. C.
Wollmer, a prominent business man
of Wakeeney, who is in Salina today.
Wheat made the biggest average
yield this year in the history Of the
county, Mr.. Wollmer says, and the
acreage is greater than ever before.
Grain is selling at SIPS bushel and
the ointment would be without the
proverbial fly if buyers could get cars
in which to ship it out.
The county's average yield will be
not less than thirty-five bushels to
the acre, Mr.. Wollmer' declares, and
the grain is testing more than sixty
pounds to the bushel.
The car shortage continues to be
the pressing problem. More than l.
100000 bushels of wheat is piled on
the ground along the Union Pacific
railway between Ellis and Wakeeney,
grain buyers say.

HOW THE HAREM FIGURES IN
LIFE OF THE ORIENT.
German Writer Asserts That Western
Travellers Have Given Out an En-
tireIy Wrong Impression Of
the Institution.

The West brought it's civilization
to the East, but one thing the Western
people were unable to drive away from
the Orient was the harem. The Orien-
turn this old institution would make
an end of culture in the Orient.
The harem is a home for women
members of the family, widowed moth
ers, old maid aunts and others of the
family branch. Even old servants, I'M
fit for further service, are taken into.
the hafem.
The word harem means ''holy place."
protected home, and not what is.
falsely understood place where rich
Orientals hide and maintain their
many wives. The children born in
harems are kept there and carefully
nursed by their mothers. Therefore
the death rate in these refugees is,
very small.
Conversations in the harems are car
ried on so that the children do not I'M
derstand what is said in their pres
ence, and as the children are always
under the special care of their moth
ers, servants have no opportunity to.
teach such children things they should
not know.
Married life Is one Of trust, love and
obedience. The middle classes live in
homes according to their means, the
wives with their children on the second
floor, where mans eye cannot reach.
Sultans and khedives generally have
for their wives separate palaces, some
of them decorated in the best Western
styles, the rooms are darkened through
Venetian blinds, which gives them a
gloomy appearance. Where several
wives live in one house each one has
her separate household. The wives
meet often by special invitation; they
live in harmony together; there is no
petty jealousy, each knows that the law
allows the husband a certain number
Of wives. 1t is wrong to think that
marry each other by the Will of the
parents. The parents certainly make
the proposal, but the young people are
allowed the final word.
Western people have accused the
Turks of pOlygamy, which is denied
by the Oriental and the accusation re-
turned with the remark, the Western
men are worse, for they flee from flow
er to flower, but no one brings any Of
these flowers home to make her his
wife.
Reforms and Western modes have
brought much unhappiness into the
harems, and often when too late Mos
lem women have found out that they
were wrong.
The Oriental, rich or poor, does not
allow his wife to do laborious work;
she has to live for her husband and
children only. He wants her to live
in ease and comfort, and to accom-
plish this, the husband deprives him
self of many things, to give his wife
and children all the comfort possible.
The Oriental works and is thrifty,
while his wife sits at home on the car
pet and dreams.
The strict marriage law gives the
Oriental wife security and happiness,
while Western laws do not give wives
that security.
Turkish men seldom are rude to the
female population, but many Euro
peans who don't know the laws and
customs Of the Orientals, are the cause
Of the harem ladies being compelled
to veil.-Impression of Institution.
