Pheasants arc so nearly do* mestfeated they are onto to cotue in clutches, rail and plover In balls, and cranes, and heron in slants. JKVerybody knows that a fox's .tall la In hunting parlance his brush, but few perhaps know further that his Scalp Is technically a “mask," or that If ha.|a superlatively game, It Is torn off, nailed on the kennel door of the pack In at his death, and marked With three crosses to chow that ho died only a t the end of a ringing run.

After them the hind feet, “the pegs’* —which only very young or very avid ' hunters care much to claim. One amazing thing regarding the vixen—the she fox—yj that no dog will, follow her trail while she carries young. It is uncertain whether she then leaves no scent, or whether the dogs obey some pr mal Instinct, in passing over her track. -A certain ., consideration for the female is appar­ ent In most of canine species. One of the surest signs of rabies is for a dog to attack a bitch cf his own spe­ cies. . Fawns when first dropped are for some hours unable to stand.' The dog , floOs dpt, remain beside them, but pa­ ces slowly around at a considerable distance. Every now and then she -gives a little tremulous bleating call, -at sound of which tne fawn lifts Its head and tries to struggle to its feet. Should a man or dog appear mean­ time, the doe runs away In a straight' •line, but lagglngly and halting as though betself hurt unto death. When She thinks she has lured the enemy far enough away, she gives three groat flying leaps, which take her at Once out of sight and goes back to her baby, upon seven-league hoots. But If left undisturbed, she keeps up the - pacing until she sees the fawn stand­ ing, then paces daintily away In a Straight line, choosing always the .easiest grade. As she paces she calls ’ tiintty and every now and then halts, looking over lier shoulder.-to soe that ' slip is followed. iU tempered old horses delight to ■ attack very young foals and will kill ‘ them if permitted. Mules have the Same, cheerful, habit, unless they are under the influence of “the bell mare.” :Eh& is the queen ‘of. the. herd—a kind­ ly ’.creature who has grazed and fed ’With them, wearing a tinkling hell about her "neck, ft she snorts tie- fldnee of anything, all her followers Mali to the attack. If she sniffs tol< . erance, they pass it by. In all things they; obey her abjectly.. Back in the old day*, when horses and mules throughout the' southwest went to market in droves, the rough riding highwayman of that epoch always tried to capture “the bell’' and make off With It, knowing that nothing could keep the drove from following, Similarly, drovers tried to cave the “bell.'’ She was led, never ridden, *o that la event of. attack, she might b f treafa for a game run. A light lad Jed her—the owner or chief drover brought Up the rear. The lad had strict orders at the first sign of trouble to go his very best, caring for nothing but “the hell.’’ Mules are on the whole something of cads. They are very proud of their horse kin-folk and very much acham- t d of the other side of their ancestry. (Me horse in a lot full of mules is a royal personage.

Fo r many years Dr. Isabel Mitchell vo s a physician of some prominence in the Quaker City. While practicing her profession she became interested in the pure food movement, and spent much of her time In perfecting a process for the preservation of meats and vegeta­ bles where Ice was not obtainable. Her experiments resulted In a formula which was declared practically perfect by chemists and physicians of Philadel­ phia and vicinity. I t was a preparation which answered tho purposes desired and was a t the same time harm less to health, being the forcing of medicated ozone into the articles to be perserved. I-r. Mitchell received many offers for her ptoieso, bu t none of the terms was satisfactory to lief, though one of them was for S'O.OCO. While working on her food pieservative, she neglected her practice, and gradually lost It all.

(New York Letter.) Blanche Walsh, the actress, was re­ cently reported ns saying In defence of th e fair debtor, Mrs.. O’Neill, th a t $50,- 0(K> a year la no t too much for a wom­ an of faohion to spend for her apparel. It would seem th a t there aro m any women in New York who enjoy a liko allowance, judging by the way pu r­ chases are made in the big depart­ ment stores. I t la not strange th a t the stylishly gowned model looks a t you scornfully when you ask her top a modest coat for $20 th a t must la st you two seasons, where she has Just suave­ ly waited upon a carriage customer who has bought * simply stitched cloth coat for $125. T hat coat is simple •enough to suit your humble needs, but the price falling upon unaccustomed ears seems trem endous,' even fo r the “latest,” In silks, clothes, trimmings, the same extravagance is visible this season. It. is a pleasure for the artistic wom­ an to merely wander through the atsies of the shops and feast her eyes on the glorious color .schemes. For Instance, one a ell known store had an immense window artistically arranged with gray for the motif. Only a window dresser worthy of the large salary paid him could arrange such a multitude of small articles In such a ■harmonious picture. There were pocketbooks, card, cases, picture frames, every Imaginable desk appointment, made of the softest shade of gray leather, monkey-skin and. elephant hide. There were lovely chat­ elaine bags of gfay suede, ■ the tops heavily beaded with cut steel, and clasps of silver with the dull finish a t the moment so fashiomibie. Quite by itself was a tray of articles made of gun metal.. A watch made of this material is very chic when, fas­ tened on the lapel of a tailor-made gown of dark gray Oxford. Apropos .of gun metal, there are shown bo many pretty articles sultahle for men. which isiter . wlil serye as Christmas gifts. There are match boxes, set with dia­ monds and rubies, pencil and pen hold­ ers, card c.ases, etc. 1 The stores a re displaying Christmas novelties'but a t'p re s e n t the majority of buyers are completing their winter wardrobe. Since box and automobile coats, have been or,proved. by leaders of farhion, wc must follow like sheep. They will not become very common :tt prasent for the prices are kept way up. The long coats are very becoming to some women.. I saw a shining black cloth Newmarket in a Broadway car the other day. I t was perfectly plain, with .strapped 'seams and fitted the plump weaver to perfection. But alas! When she rose to leave the car, a bit of drag­ gled white chiffon on the. trailing skirt destroyed, the effect and proved to me, a t le.Kt, th a t long coats are incompati­ ble with trailing street gowns, holding the clinging folds close about the wear­ er’s heels. It would seem th a t the craze for steel beads and spangles will soon show some sighs of abatement when some of the cheaper grade stores are selling spangled belts and collars for 69 cents each. At the same time they are very pretty with.a plain gray or black frock. I saw a woman oh F ifth avenue the other day whose costume would have delighted Edmund Russell and the o th ­ er aesthetic critics. I t wub a symphony in brown, for 'sh e carried pat in her costume her own coloring. H cf hair war fair, tier eyes reddish brown and her skin duzzlingly white. The dress w ar a soft shade of brown cloth. The sleeves' and vest were of a taffeta of exactly the same shade and were elab­ orately stitched. The rovers were of h tavy biscuit colored lace over brown taffeta and were edged w ith mink. H er toque was a little beauty. The soft round crown was stitched with white silk in concentric tines. A single stitch caught it In the center. Around the brim were breasts th a t seemed to show every conceivable chade of brown man­ ifest In the costume. In fron t were a few velvet loops lined with white ta f­ feta. A muff and ccarf of mink com­ pleted this really tasteful costume, a delight to the eye after seeing huge bunches of purple violets on national blue toques, and other equally hideous color combinations. Stitching, fu r and lace still are in the lead an the fashionable garnitures, and scallops appear 1n every conceivable plate. A beautiful chinchilla cape la made with three rows of scallops, giv­ ing the appearance of a triple cape. I t seem® a pity to make up this lovely fu r In auch a fashion h u t the prevalent idea In New York, now and always, is for something new, no m a tte r how In­ congruous or grotesque the ^combina­ tion may be. We have not a s yet come to the point of wearing stuffed mice, bu t I presume, If they were as scarce as llunslan sable, we should be envy­ ing th e happy p03EGSsers of them. A pretty fancy vest is made of white chiffon, strapped across w ith narrow black velvet, a tiny steel buckle on every strap. Small steel buttons servo a like purpose.
