Three Hints ihnt CnmnmnA Popnlnr
Fn-ror ,
>
There was a time when the fashionable
. ( woman selected her pcrfumb with a view to
individuality ot fragrance. Such Is no
longer the case. There are three perfumes
which nine out ot every ten fashionable
.women are using. The. majority of them ,
electing one of the three scents , uses It on
both dressing table and In the numerous1
achets ot her wardrobe , white others select
any of the three Indiscriminately.
According to a well known dealer , the moat
popular of tbe favorite perfumes Is an extract -
--tract ot violet , which cannot be distin
guished from the fresh flower Itself. Though
not lasting , this Is undoubtedly the favorite.
The next in popularity is the crushed rose ,
iwhlch does not smell the least bit like the
crdloary extract of that flower , but like
the old-fashioned rose-Jar. A tiny drop of
the double extract on one woman's handker
ill chief will'give a room the subtle , splciper -
( umo for which the rose-Jar was so much do-
Hired , -while the same perfume used as a
sachet makes one's clothes smell as though
fresh rose petals had been strewn among
them.
The tblrJ claimant for popularity Is wild
clover , and makes the girl whose favorite It
( s remind one' of a breath of spring Itself.
This , It Is claimed , Is the most lasting ot
the three , and a few drops on roe's hand-
Jcercliicf will last as long as the article It
self , neither washing nor exposure to the
air appearing to diminish It.
The latest use of the sachets Is for scented
clotbes hooks. The ordinary wire extender
( or bodice or skirt Is padded with cottcn
batting , thickly sprinkled with sachet pow
der. Over them Is drawn a silk or muslin
bar , shirred full around the shank of the
: extender , or tied with ribbons , so that they
may be easily removed when there Is a neces
sity for renewing the powder. Another
method employed by dressmakers , In place
ot the dainty bags of sachet formerly stitched
about In the bosom and sleeves of a bodice ,
is the new cotton or wcol-pcrfumcd pad
ding. U can be bought -with any scent , aaa
Is much more enduring.

1A Socletr flirt 'Who Itntm a Farm nnd
Out Shoe iv Home.
> Mlss Sarah Cooper Hewitt , granddaughter
of the famous philanthropist , Peter Cooper ,
la one of the most original young women
of New York's " 400. " Her slater , Mlas
Eleanor O. Hewitt , Is equally Independent
In thought and action. Society la away
down the list In tbe sum of what go to
make up the lives of the Misses Hewitt.
It comeo after the farm that they manage ,
the horses they shoe , the books they write ,
the Pompton , N. J. , ehool board to which
they belong , the restaurant In the home of
their grandstro's birth , the stone walls they
build , the Ladles' Amateur orchestra which
thry Inaugurated , and what not. But do
, not think that these young women are
* jnero dlltetante. All they do la done well ,
11 with the to'ich and finish of the professional ,
not the amateur. They are girls to the
society manner -born and bred , and yet with
alms far beyond and above It.
They have Inherited the keen business In
stincts ot their celebrated grandfather. They
are almost as original as he , enough BO , at
leaft , to be regarded by their less gifted
sisters In society as a shade eccentric. But
the Misses Hewitt are not In the least ruffled
by such a charge.The pride of lineage and
the security of wealth enable them to rise
above envy ,
They are , It boa teen aald , the grand
daughters of Peter Cooper. Tbelr mother
was -Miss Cooper of Rlngwood , N. J.Thoy
are the daughters of Abram S. Hewitt ,
once mayor of New York. Their uncle ,
Edward Cooper , was likewise once mayor
of that city. Their uncle , Thomas Cooper ,
once kept a dairy and restaurant.Their
brother , Edward Rlngwood Hewitt , partakes
of the practical bent of the family , and
evinces It in one direction at least , by having
a carpenter shop In his home. Mr. Peter
Cooper Hewitt , their brother , married Mlas
.Work , the sister of Mrs. Burke Roche , and a
genluD In the matter .of. amateur theatricals.
Air. and Mrs. Hewitt and their unmarried
aona and daughters live , at such time as they
are not In the country , in their mansion at
No. 9 Lexington avenue. Mr. and Mrs. Peter
Cooper Hewitt are their nearest neighbors.
The Mlsfia Hewitt are tall , slender , athletic
and young. Their cheeks glow with the
ruddiness , their eyen sparkle with tbe bright
ness that can be gained only from much time
pent out of doors.
The young women spend but three month *
of the year la the city. Tbe remaining and
by far the more enjoyable portion they spend
on tbe Hewitt farm ot 2,000 acres , few
miles from Tuxedo1. 'They ' celebrated tbelr
return to town by giving a vegetable party
at the Lexington avenue mansion lost week ,
.when the spacious rooms were filled with ,
animated cauliflowers ; 'coquettish ' cabbage ,
blushing radishes and debutante Brussels
sprouts.
To Mle * Sarah Cooper Hewitt the role of
hostess' la one 'of the least of faer occupa
tions. For Instance , she can and does shoe
horses. Miss H wltt'a accomplishment In the
line of shoeing horses began In tbe way In
.which young women usually usurp the alleged
trerogatlvea ot their brothers.
"I would like to try , " she said , with a
nervous little laugh and an Involuntary drawIng -
Ing back ot her skirts.
"You may , mlM'gravely replied .the . Ring-
wood btackamlta. '
Miss Sarah bent over the anvil and swung
the hammer timidly. The she grew lead
afraid of the flying sparks aa she e w the red
metal taking form under atrokes. She visited
the forge dally until she' had learned to
hammer out a shoe on the anvil.
Miss Hewitt was not content to hammer
out a horseshoe. She wanted to hammer U
on. After that horseshoeing became a fa-
Torlte diversion with her. She will not placa
a hot thee against a , horse's hoof , but In
sists upon Its cooling thoroughly before the
applies it. She does the work with a re
markable speed and all the blacksmlibs In the
neighborhood of Rlngwood farm admit that
Itlaa Hewitt can shoe a horse well and do It
In leas time than they can. They cay ahe
seems to understand a horse Intuitively an *
afae bea never failed to conquer any refractory
horse upon which ahe tried her art of taming.
It la very gentle metes she brings to her
aid. tfcat of kindness.
The young lady superintends the twenty-
fire workmen on her father's farm. Through
her It has been brought to Its present park *
like state of cultivation during the past few
years. She regards agriculture as a science
aud follows It In the business-like manner
that Is characteristic of all her pursuits.
( Miss Hewitt exhibited her ability In di
recting Important work by superintending
the bullJlng of a stono.wall around the park
at ningwood. .
At No. 401 Fourth avenue Is a neat , at
tractive restaurant , where are dispensed
many of the products of the Rlngwood
Tarm , It occupies the ground floor of the
quatat wooden house where Peter Cooper-
was born. , , "Ptter Cooper's homstead" Is
the legend on the windows. ' This restau
rant is owned , and In a manner managed ,
b.7 Peter Cooper's defer granddaughters.
Miss Sarah C. Hewitt has been a member of
the school board Pompton , N. J. , since
March , 1896. Sfie Is the only woman on
; he board and .the first , one elected to that
position In Pomptori ,
Three years ago a book on road making
'
was put upon the market'and was sold with
astonishing rapidity. The book dealt chiefly
with the roads about Tuxedo , tbelr excel-
enco and the1 manner la which they could bo
ImprovcJ. The work had intrinsic value ,
and bore a name which added much to Its
remarkableness. The author was Miss Sarah
hooper Hewitt. Uha Is one of the finest
horsewomen- the country , and drives per
fectly.
( Miss Hewitt Is. a natural leader and or-
-aulzer. So It came about that she , with
icr sister , Miss Eleanor O. Hewitt , Inau

fancy collar finished with Paqula points on
each side. Scores of these dressy little ac-

t adding strength to the argument.
STUDYNO LANGUAGE.
"The man who wlibes to become an orator
shoud study language. He should know the
deeper meaning of words. Ho should un
derstand the vigor and velocity of verbs
and the color of adjectives. 11 o should
know how to'sketch ' a scene , to paint a pic- ,
ture. to give life and action. He should be
* poet and dramatist , a painter and an actor.
He should cultivate his Imagination. He
should become familiar with the great poetry
and fiction , with spltndld aad heroic detds.
He should be a student of Shakespeare. He
should read and devour the great plays.
( From Shakespeare be could learn the art of
expression , of compression , and all the se
crets of the head and heart.
"The great orator Is full of viuMety ot
surprises. Like a Juggler ho keeps the col
ored balls In the air. Mo expresses hlrrUe-lf
In pictures. His speech Is a panorama.
Uy continued change he holds the attention.
The Interest does not flag. Ho does not
allow himself to bo anticipated. He Is
always In advance. He does not repeat
hlmse-lf. A iplcturo Is shown tout once.
There should be no stuffing , no filling. He
should put no cotton with his silk , ao com
mon metals with his gold. He should
remember that 'glided dust Is not as good
as dusted gold. ' The great orator Is honest - .
est , sincere. He does not pretend. iHls
bran ! a Jd heart go together. Every drop
of bis blooJ is convinced. Nothing Is forced.
Ho knows exactly What be wishes to do-
knows when ho has finished It , and stops.
KNOWING WHEN TO STOP.
"Only a great orator knows when aud how
to close. Most speakers go on after they
are through. They are catlsfled only with
a "lame and Impotent conclusion. " Most
speakers lack variety. They tiuvel a
straight and dusty road. The great orator
Is full of episode. He convinces and
charms by Indirection. Ho le.wes the road ,
visits the fields , wanders In the woods , UK-
tens to the murmurs of springs , the songa
of birds. Ho gathers flower * ) , ecatrs the
crags and comes back to the highway re
freshed , Invigorated. He docs not move In
a straight Hoc. He wanders and winds like
a ftream.
"Of'course no one can tell a man what , to
do to become an orator. The great orator
has that wonderful thing called presence.
He has the strange something known as
magnetism. He must have a flexible , musi
cal voice , capable of expressing the pathetic ,
the humorous , the heroic. His body must
move In unison with his thought. He must \
bo a rensoher , ' 'a logician. He must hive
ii keen 'sense 'of humor of the laughable.
He must have wit , sharp nnd quick. He
must have sympathy. His smiles should be
the neighbors of his tears. He must have
imagination. He should give eagles' to the
air , anl painted moths should flutter lu
the sunlight.
"While I cannot tell a man what to dote
to become an orator , I can tell him o few
things not to do.
"There should be no Introduction to an
oration. The orator should commence with
his subject. Tnero should bo no prelude ,
no flourish , no apology , no explanation. He
should say nothing about himself. Like n
sculptor he stands by his block of stono.
Every stroke Is for a purpose. As he works
the forrrr begins to appear. When the statue
is finished , 'tho workman stops. Nothing IB
more difficult than a perfect close. Few
posms , few ; pieces of music , few novels end
well. A good story , u great speech , a per-
.fect poem "should end Just at the proper
.point. . The bud , the blosrom , the fruit. No
delay.A great speech Is a crystallization
In its logic , an eflloresce-nce In its poetry. "
"Can you give a few Illustrations , drawn
from .your own experience and observation
of public speakers ? "
"Well , to tell you the truth. " rejoined
Colonel Inge-soil , "I have not heard many
ipccchea. Most of the great speakers In our
country were before my time. .1 heard
Bceeher , and he was an orator. He had
Imagination , humor and intensity. Mis brain
waa as fertile as the valleys of the tropics.
Ho was too broad , too philosophic , too poetic'
for the pulpit.
"Now and then he broke the fetters of hla
creed , ercacej from his orthodox prison and
became sublime.
"Theodore Parker was an orator. Ho
preached , ' great sermons. His sermons on
'Old Age' and 'Webster , ' and his address on
' 'Liberty' were filled with great thought ? ,
marvelously expressed. When he dealt with
human events , with realities , with things
he knew , he wao superb. When he spoke
of freedom , of duty , of living to the Ideal ,
of mental integrity , he seemed Inspired.
"Webster I never beard. He had great
qualities ; force , dignity , clearness , grandeur ;
but , after all , he worshipped the paat. Ho
kept hla back to the tunrlse. There waa
no dawn In his bra In. He was not creative.
He bad .no spirit of prophecy. He lighted no
torch. He was not true to his Ideal. He
talked sometimes as though his head was
among the stars , but he stood In the gutter.
, In the name ot religion he tried to break
the will of Stephen Qlrard to destroy tbe
greatest charity in all the world ; and In the
name of tbe eame religion he defended the
fugitive slave law. His purpose was the
same , in both casas. He wanted office. Yet
he uttered' a few very great paragraphs ,
rich with thought , perfectly expressed.
"Clay I never heard , but he must have had
a commanding presence , a cbivalrlc bearing ,
a herob voice. He cared little for the past.
Ho was a natural leader , a wonderful talker
forcible , persuasive , convincing. He was
not a poet , not a master of metaphor , but
be was practical. He kept in view tbe end
to be accomplished. He was the opposite
of Webster. Clay was the morning , Webster
the evening. Clay had large views , a wide
horlton. Ho was ample , vigorous and a
little tyrannical.
"Centon was thoroughly commonplace. He
never uttered an Inspired word. He was
an Intensa egotist. No subject was great
enough to make him forget himself. Calhoun -
hounwas a political Calvlnlst narrow , log
ical , dogmatic. He was not an orator. He
delivered etsayt ; notv orations. >
"I think It was In 1861 that Kostutb visited
this country. He was an orator. There
waa no elan , at that time , under our flag ,
Who could speak English as well as he. In , -
th JUit RiiesvI read of Koisuth's was thU
line : "KassU Is tbe rock against which the
lgb for freedom breaks. "
"In this you see the poet , the painter , tbe
orator.

lad genius. He was full of humor ,
athos , wit and logic. He was an actor ,
its body talked. His meaning was In his
iyes and lips.
"Governor O. P. Morton of Indiana had the
-reatest power of statement of any man
ev r heard. All the argument was In his
statement. The facts-were perfectly grouped.
Che conclusion -was a necessity. The best
lolltlcal speech I ever beard was made by
lovernor ( Richard J. Oglesby of Illinois. It

feet naturalness. That was In tbe grant
years , long ago.
"Lincoln bad reason , wonderful humor and
wit , but his presence was not 'good. Hla
voice was poor , bis gestures awkward *
but his thoughts were profound. His speech
at Gettysburg is one of the masterpieces
of the world. Tbe word "here" Is used
four or five times too often. ( Leaves the >

"Of course , I have heard a great many :
talkers , but orators are few and far be-

of marvelous achievements. They utter
tbe thoughts , tbe aspirations of ( heir age.
They clothe tbe children of tbe people la
the gorgeous robes of genius. They Inter
pret the dreams. Wltb the poets , they
prophecy. They fill tbe future with berol
forms , with lofty deeds. They keep th lr
faces toward the dawn toward tbe TM
coming day. "
