The profession of dentistry appears to boone

charged to Iho different hnblls ot the sex.

The poor llttlo woman was traveling from
Hultlmoio to Chicago on Uio Baltimore &
Ohio with six small children , writes ICuto
Field. Three of them were 111 , nnd sbo had
, llpr hands.und.Jap moiolhan full. Every ono
In Iho.car tried throughout the dav to do
What-thoy could to allovlnto her sufferings.
A kindly old gcntloman played with the not
too inviting 2-year-old , nnd u jolly eommor-
clnl Iravoler kept the wiggling mid Inquisi
tive oldest boy a < < quiet as possible witb stor
ies of his own bovs nl home. D.iinty ladles
opened well-stocked traveling bags to tlm
rruny necessities of ino llttlo brood , and tbo
traveling public scorned disposed to show
its utmost kindliness to the overburdened
womnn. The only person wbo showed no

' " \Vbun Ihoy were safely sclllud , Iho passen

conduct of Iho little snub-nosed man , who
skulked down the nlslo und crawled Into the

The queen of California fruit trrowers Is
Mrs. Emma P. Buckingham of Vacuvillo.
She has a fruit ranch comprising several
hundred acres , a farm mansion , and ships
fruit almost bv iho Irnlnload.
"By a sudden chaneo of fortune n few
years ago , " iho lady rncontly recounlcd , "I
realized ibat I must also make- some changes.
I had been surrounded by enough wealth to
inoke life , if not luxurious , nt least so pleas
ant ns to never cause athouirht of the future.
Wolhcd atthollnost hotel in the city , and
our hands were as unsollod by toll as our
. minds were free from business.
"When the chance came , I thought of a
small runch and attention to fruit. Friends
soucht lo dissuade mo. They said I had no
knowledge of what was ri'iiiiliod to malco a
Buecess of It , and forthwith intimated that I
might. Und It u lonely , uncongenial experi
ence in which failuiu might murk tho.end.
Butl-bnd a taste lor It , nnd was determined
to go nlieud. I began with n few acres.
Neighbors were good to mo. Practical fruit
growers gave mo advice. I began to bo suc
cessful. Then I bought moro lauu und
planted moro trees.
"Thoro Is no reason why any woman can
not nmlco a SUCCOSH of fruitgrowing. Near
mo is a lady who two or three years ago came
tbero from Now York. She know nothing
ot nil about fruit , but now , purely because
of her individual energy and llnanolal fore-
eight , she has a protltublo fruit farm , and
besides Is buv Ing and shipping whole trains
of fruit to Denver , Omuun , St. Louis , Chicago
cage and Now Yorir. 1 Ihlnk women , when
they give their attention to it , can make at
much of a success of fruit growing ns men.
Hulf vour success is assured when you really
think you will succeqd. "
The mother's suspicions were aroused and
that night when the young man loft the

the mother.
"Yes , imimma , " demurely.
"I know it , " she said. "Did you pormlt

' No , ma'am , I did not. I told blm you had

"That was right , that win right , my dear , "

The Hungarian paj > Sw report the death at
tuo Hgo of 03 of Friiu Marie Ilocbo , who bad
Iccu & lloutouaut lu tUo Hungarian war for
Independence , nnd gained n modal for
bravery on the field of brittle. In 1813 Marie
was 13 years ot ago. She enrolled herself tn
a corps of volunteers without tbo slightest
suspicion arising ns to her sox. For her
courage in an engagement in which she was
badly wounded In ono foot she was re
warded with n lieutenant's commission and
decorated with a medal. Marie was after
wards transferred to n regiment of hussar ? ,
with the rank of first lieutenant , She might
have Bono further in the line of promotion
but for the chance discovery of her SOT ,
whortsuoon n major who had long had a
liking for the bravo young ofllcar married
her , the wedding ceremony being performed
by iho rogimontnl chaplain. Attar nor hus
band's death she suffered from poverty , but
iortunatoly sbo attracted the nottco of the
Magyar boot , Maurus Jokal , who pleaded bor
cnuso in verso with such effect thut a sum
of money was raised to ease her declining
years.
An ideal tea gown Is maao after tbo old
Orook model of finest white samite , which
can bo bought under a less pootlcal name at
the wool places , nnd Is really n wool veiling
of exquisite texture. All tbo borders of this
graceful gown , nccordlnir to the New YorK
Sun , should bo wrought tn tbo Qreolc key
pattern In palo , soft blue , outtinod with Just
u thread of gold. The long , loose sleeves
should bo lined with blue silk , ns , ludocd ,
should bo tbo entire robe , and worn ever
whlto cblna crnpo bishop Rlcovcs. The low ,
square neck should have a guimpo of tbo
nnino material as tbo sleeves , and iho folds
of drapery should bo fastened on the shoul
der with n clasp of dull old gold made In the
fashion of those with which Ibo nnclont
Athenian boiutios fastened the chiton in
plnco , when the chiton with it : clasps and
glrdlo was the complete rcgullu of full dross.
And If her pot ot gold were not exhausted tn
realising this dream , a "mattnoo" or loung-
ii.g sack of coolest thinnest silk known to
custom looms should bo made long , half loose
to lit , but shapely , with full flowing slouvos
and it broad collar turned well nuav from
the neck , edged everywhere with the lullest ,
softest frills of line creamy lace , llko yellow
foam on angry waters.
There was nn exciting titno In the Broad
way hotel In Denver the other day , In the
morning Miss Emma Snow , \\nltross ,
bustled Into the dlnlng-robm nnd explained
to her associates that abe had fallen heir to
Komothlngllko $100,000. She exhibited pa
pers from England Informing her thntn rela
tive had died , leaving ? 2 , 001) ) , 000 , and she
was ono of the ilvo heirs to It. The fortunate -
nato girl was overjoyed with her good luuk.
Sbo had been at work only a short time in
the hotel jind probably considered herself
very fortunate in getting the plnco. The
other employes congratulated her and so did
many of the guests. Sbo Immediately re
signed herplaco and is now waiting for bor
to come.
The current number of the Shoo and
Leather li'iicta contains some valuable sug
gestions about woman's shoos. Among other
things tbo writer says that no woman can
mauo u mlstuho as to the correct footgear for
the season. ' For everyday wear whlto can
vas ties ona boots are tbo stylo. Tnov nro
tinned and trimmed with patent leather :
whlto canvas ties bavo nlso a white kid tip.
Kusso' , shoes und those of tan leather tire
ulBO mucU worn. A povolty Is the walking
boot of Hussfan leather , with the uppers of
whllo buriUskln. Sllpp'crs of black .sucdo nro
perfectly plain , savn for the presence of some
tornarkablo silt buckles over iho iusfop.
Nothing moro plainly illustrates that the
girl of the porlod is partial to things antique
than her persistent fomlnoss for the Inng-
trulnod skirt. It Is found , on Investigation ,
that this abamlmiblo costume was invented
first in England by Anne , queen of Klclmrd
II. , nearly 500 years ago. This was probably
tbo first streot-clcaulng apparatus to bo in
vented. This home queen should also bo
blamed for tbo largo hats , these of abnormal
sl/o , with great flaring orlms , intimalo icln-
tivcs of our tboator-oonndts now in vo uo.
Surely this ouitnablo woman had muoh to DO
responsible for.
In four weeks time tbo Woman's club of
Chicago raised tllS.lOO toward the $ . ' 00,000
fund needed for the erection of dormitories
for the women students of tbo now univer
sity. Of this sum Ellzaooth O. Kelly guvo
$50,000 nnd Nnncv Foster , widow of tno late
Dr. Foster , J50.000. This llborollty on the
part of ivomon for women's education marks
ibo beginning of n now epoch. Hitherto gifts
from woman donors have boon devoted to
benevolent purposes or to tbo uld or mon's in
stitutions of learning.
I.llto I'ufthloii Notes.
Changeable "Ilk parasols are known as the
Diana.
Gold pins have arrived to fasten the sus.
ponder on the snoulders.
Quaint touches of orange in a gray gown
seem to have found ravor.
Opal beetles glitter among tbo lace nnd
guuzo trimmings of a Parisian capoto.
The Piccadilly tlo is a pointed affair , which
mnv only bn worn by the girl with narrow ,
tapering foot.
Speckled dimities may bn fashioned Into
antique looking morulug rabcs with tbo ad
dition of n girdlo.
Porlumo atomlzois , the rubber covered
with silver netting and the glass with per
forated silver , mo scon in great abundance ,
Breakfast Jackets are made of flowcrod do-
lames and nainsook , and trimmed with Va-
lencionncs lacn and ribbons the exact shade
of the pattern.
Black silk Russian blouses trimmed with
silver cord and black Husiinn lacn , and
boltnd with old silver girdles , are among the
striking things worn by nrttstlo women.
The fashion ol the moment in Jewels is to
mount ibo pins and staw and floral sprays
on a black or red ribbon arranged across tbo
front of the bodlca from right to left. Tiaras
nro loss worn than formerly by ladies of high
degroo.
Striped gauzes with n fllot or thread of
black in ecnb stripe are very pretty trans
parencies for freshening the silk gowns of
last summer. Thu gauzp may bo of tbo color
of the silklir In contrast to it , the latter im
parting a shot effect.
Many of tbo sushos of ribbon nnd slllc now
worn bikvo the ends finished in some way ,
either cut out in points nnd a wldo fall of
lace or chiffon fastened in the end , or
with ribbon frlngo or a Jot fringe. It Is a
graceful fancy and gives great variety.
India mull , being boraowbnt moro durable
and nearly us delicate and airy ns chiffon ,
has In a mousura supplanted the latter tox-
ttlo In general favor. Uressu * of mult uro
very slmplu in style , nnd nro frequently
made up ever tinted batiste Instead of surah.
Do women , then , dross only for mon's
oyoi , after all ! well , p.'rhaps In hot
wo.-ither. But Iho fashions of iho present
season ate so adapted to comfort that a
woman may bo both fashionable und com-
foriublo , which certainly is a atop toward
diess reform.
Some of the now dross bonnoU are bril
liant with Jewelled algrottos mingled in ar-v
i.lsttc fashion with tulle and other diaphan
ous toxtllns. A glimpse of lllmy gold foliatre
or cold thistles and silver dandelion blows ,
appears umong the lloccy clouds of gauze or
spangled not.
Corsages ndornod with crossed draperies
simulating u llchu continue to bo very fash
ionable , the dniporlej covering tbo shoulders
entirely , and leaving only an open V , o. < clao
cut down on ibo shoulders very low llko tbo
fashlonablo corsalot ever u fancy wulst of
another material.
The gowns of nogllgo affect nro of wblto
lawn , trimmed elaborately with very narrow
ribbon. Thoyoku and sleevoi are of embroidery -
broidery , through which tbo ribbon is run ,
tying hero ind tbero in diminutive bows. A
drop ruflla of tbo ribboned embroidery is
uicd us a trimming around the bottom of the
gown.
Tbo Tuscan hats this season are Ingont-
ouily woven and nru particularly pretty. A
beautiful fawn-colored hut of this sort has
an OPOII work band about the brim that looks
llko amber pimomoniorlo. It Is truumod
with reseda groun tullo- and has some ilch
damask roses nodding high on tbo crown at
the back.
Pretty hot weather blouses are made of
cream whlto India mull with full bishop
nlpoves nnd turndown collar odcod with
n slightly gathered frill of Yulouolonnoi lace ,
a rullla ot the slime extending down the front
In Jabot fashion. Wblto Victoria lawn is
alio ujud In tbo makluii of shirt waist * und
blouses for ordinary wear.
The crowning glory uf summer dress Is tbo
parasol , which has boon metamorphosed Into
llowsr bells and chalice * , taking tbo exact
shape of rose * and tulips , or , at green U very
much tbo fashion , of a Una head of lettuce.
Tbo handles are of flno Dresden or Sovros
china la delicate garlands of flower * , the
knot showmir the powdered bead of some fa-
vorlto of tbo French court.
At every dro fuuollon It Is decidedly ap
parent that two materials lead tbe 11U of fa
vorites for powns silks nnd crepons ; that
two kinds of trimming prevail , ftnd these nro
lace and ribbon. Velvet ribbons in all
colors nnd seldom moro than on Inch wldo
nro rnroly absent from smart gowns.
Another noticcnblo fart is that tbo newest
of summer gowns .nro trimmed with an
abundance of black instead of whlto laco. It
U moro drossy , wo are told , especially on
thin , light materials.
Ono of the prettiest of summer dresses Is
chiffon made ever silk. It ipqulrcs nlmott
no trimming , but may bo shirred around tbo
noolt , nnd provided It Is amnto enough it
nlll fall In graceful folds of Iti own dovislne.
Bands of lace insertion , often of black on n
dullcato tinted chiffon , nro sometimes used.
The lace bands go around the skirt or up
and down in panels as the taste dictates , and
the bodlco may bo entirely made of alternate
strlpos of lace nod chiffon.

showing its taco from nn outlined gold heart

An oxqulslto creation of whlto molro nnd

dcoplv rounded at the bust. It-la waistline

Beneath Iho corselet Is Worn n blouse Of the
Inco. whoso long skirt roaches bait way
down the gown skirt. Above iho corselet
the blouse makes n volco that Is guthorod to

Ono reason why Americans are so uni

In a recent letter to the editor of THE BEB ,
Colonel W. F. Cody ( "Buffalo Bill" ) soys
that "Tno Nebraska Show , " as ho fondly
culls bis wild west enterprise , is mooting
with great BUOCOJS In London , and as evi
denceof it ho incloses a nurabor.of glowing
piosg notices from English papo'ra. Ono of
the loto attractions added , o tbo show Is the
Quacbos , the wild ildori of the pampas of
South America. Major. Burke , another well
known Nebraskan , audu "Buffalo Bill's"
ligbtbowor , bas wlltoul'tha following in
formation about tboso modern cantaurs :
"Tbo Gaucho differs in in any respects from
the other rough riders 07 ( Xho only partially

and ot savage conditions of lifo , that obtain

ity of dross , manner , and equipment , and
tboir horeeuiansblu , tbe Uaucbo * will be in

"Tho 'bolas' consists of a number of rawhide -
hide thongs , fastened to a central thong , nnd
vllh nn Iron ball at each of the ends. The
Uaucho can hurl this nt n living hoiso , cower

causa it to Inextricably tnnglo about the legs
and bilng the victim helplessly to the

resistance , being completely terrorised Into
submission by the appearance of the bolas-
throwing wild horsomon.
"It may bo interesting to state that from
their primitive mo Jo of existence , the Gaucho
makes nearly"everything connected with his
'outfit , ' even the rude saddle from rnwhido ,
the lasso , the 'bolas,1 and oven his boots -
which nro made from the suln ( taken from

Mention has been mndo In this column of
tbu reasons why Mrs. Sldnoy Draw is acting
under that name Instead of bor maiden name ,
Gladys Uankin. It is nn Interesting subject ,
nnd Mrs. Kendall has wrltton nn opinion that
is quite apropos and will commend Itself to
the general loader as eminently sensible.
She says :
"I have often been asked why my husband
nnd I always not together nnd have never
boon parted. I wish to state to tbo public
why it is so. Mv father was an actor who
said ho boltovcd that tbo greatest amount of
domesticity nnd happiness In a llfo devoted
lo art could exist on tbo stage , provided hus
bands and wlvos never parted. If , on the
contrary , a man , because ho could earn 10 a
week moro , want to ono theater whilst his
wife , for a similar reason , wont to another ,
tholr interests tended to become divided ,
tboir fcoilngs ran In separate grooves , and
cradually a shadow would grow up at homo ,
which divided thorn forever. On my ex
pressing a wish to marry an actor , bo said
that only on this condition would ho allow
mo to matry my husband that wo should
never be parted.
"Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kcan nlxvays acted
togotbor , and she endorsed my father's
words. If my husband and 1 bad been sepa
rated , if bo had playd parts to other women ,
If oilier \\omon bad piavod parls lo blm , and
I to other man , and other men to mo tboro
is no doubt that wo could bavo boon wortb
thousands of pounds moro today. But on
the other hand tboro is a section of tbo pub
lic who say they like to see us act together ;
that tbo very fact of knowing that wo are
man nnd wlfo gives thorn a" certain satisfac
tion in witnessing our performance , which
tboy would not otherwise fool. That , how
ever , I must leave for tbo public to decide.
As far as wo are concerned , it was n vow
made to my father , from which my husband
has never dcpnitcd ; and if , when wo nro
dead , wo.loavo our children less money , lot
us hope they will respect wbat wo bavo
done. "
