WOMAN'S WORLD.
MISS CORNELIA G. CROSBY, QUEEN OF ANGLERS.
Miss Cornelia G. Crosby, or, as she is better known in the sporting world, "Fly Rod," with her cabin and guides, her livo fish and mounted game, was unquestionably one of the greatest attrac tions at tho sportsmen's exposition recently held at Madison Square Garden, New York.
The cabin which held Miss Crosby's linntiug and fishing trogsures and trophies was brought piecemeal from tho Maine woods and erected by stalwart, bronzed fellows, who spent their odd moments exploring tho novel mysteries of Broadway and tho Bowery, for Miss Crosby's guides were new to the metropolis.
Tho livo fish, numbering 100 trout! and salaaon that disported themselves in tho five
tanks cIorq
to tho cabin, were
brui~bt down from tho Rangeloy Ijjlco region in a special fish oar sent from Washington for that purpose, a complimc*r.t firm tho United Slates to "Fly Rod" p-rfectly unique of its kind.
Miss Crosby is very proud of the fact that she has been self supporting and independent from girlhood. Her education has been largely of that interesting, desultory character gleaned from daily, loving intercourse with nature. The only conventional item in it seems to havo boon a year spent at St Catherine's achool at Augusta, Me., where she numbered among her school friends James G. Blaine's daughter Alice. She does not appear to envy girls whose training

What gems sparkle as tho gleam of a 'speckled beauty* darting through limpid water, or whoire is the collection of china or lace as interesting as a well filled fly book?

Bunshine. You see it was a very good chance," the stalwart Maine girl said laughing as she straightened up her splendidly proportioned body, 6 feet tall and supple as a young forest tree.
Miss Crosby's voice is deep and vibrating, and gives the impression that it would send a ringing shout over hills and meadows, and her hand grasp is almost painful in its intense cordiality, a clasp that would convert a skeptical guide into a devoted friend.
Miss "Fly Rod," as she is sometimes quaintly called by the guides, who are her stanch friends and admirers, spends most of her time hunting and fishing in and about the Rangeley lakes in the upper hunting region of Maine. When sho grows tired of rifle and rod, or perhaps on stormy days, she lounges in her hammock or in tho cozy corner of her cabin and writes delightful stories of tie forests and rivers for outing magazines and papers, signing her favorite noin de plume. —M. A. Fauton in Chioago Record.

Figured dresden or chine ribbons are used for belts, crush collars and bows. Bretelles of ribbon, also called suspenders, end on the shoulders in a simple bowknot or an upright bow of three loops and four notched ends. Bracelet cuffs on elbow sleeves are merely a plain or twisted band of ribbon ending in a bow at the back. Anew decoration of two inch ribbon starts from the shoulder under a bowknot, follows the avm size to the

In front one bretello finishes under a knot of ribbon, from which fall two long ends. The other bretelle is finished with a fan of seven inch lace held by a rhinestone button. Epaulet ruffles of lace are fastened under the bretelles just at the top of the shoulders, and a folded band of the ribbon across tho upper part of the front has a fall, called a bib, of tho lace, with two buttons at each side confining the band. The quantities necessary are three yards of lace, five buttons and ten yards of ribbon. Even ribbon as narrow as three inches may be used if preferred. The plain and printed gold ribbons are used for belts in widths of 1% to 2 inches with a gilt or enameled buckle or tied in a tiny bowknot in front These last well without tarnishing if not allowed to become damp. They should also be kept wrapped in tissue paper li« not in use, as should steel buckles and clasps. A fancy button centering a bow of ribbon, lace rosette, etc., is much newer than a tie over of the same goods. Ribbons are never amiss on summer or evening gowns.—Ladies' Home Journal.

Mrs. Cleveland's Memory.
A trait that has added greatly to Mrs. Cleveland's popularity is her wonderful memory for faces aud namea A woman visiting Washington during -the past winter was mcst anxious to see Mrs. Cleveland. Upon inquiry she found that the only way in which this could be accomplished v/as to attend the public reception. This she accordingly did, but when she found herself in the procession composed of the queer medley of people who usually attend these functions she was greatly embarrassed. Beside her in the line was an old woman fresh from her stand in the market, who had left a basket of produce outside. In front was a cowboy from the jj* prairies in slouch hat and top bootpir Near by sho saw an old woman fl seller with her basket of half fai nations in her hand.
When at length she reached Mrs.' Cleveland, she said a few words of her distress at being one of such a company. Mrs. Cleveland was all graciousness. "If you will tell me your name and address," she said, with one of her bewitching smiles, "I will send you a card to my private reception. You will find that pleasanter, I think."
The visitor told her where she was staying, and was much pleased at her pleasant reception but it did not occur to her as possible that the president's wife would remember the card. What then was her astonishment to receive the invitation the next morning 1 When she attended the private reception, her oup of bliss was quite full win Mrs. Cleveland recognized her and called her by name.
Abont Gloves.
According to the good women who set the standards of manners in the early Victorian era, a lady might be known by her glovea If they were fleckless and flawless, she was presumably so. If their two buttons were neatly sewed on and their fingers free from rents, she was a neat an*d commendable person.
Nowadays, when makers put startling reds, blinding violets and noisy shades of green on the market to tempt the unwary, it is harder to live up to the glove standard of good breeding. Mere neatness does not suffice. One must escape the color pitfalls.
Tans, unless they are of the blood orange hues that sometimes masquerade under that name, are generally safe. The wise woman, however, is careful how she buys bright shades of tan, as they are apt to become positively glaring in contrast with gowns. Mode color is safer for general wear. Gray, of course, is always charming when worn With frocks of harmonizing colors. Black gloves are "distinguished" looking with all colors except black. Lemon oolor, with inconspicuous stitching, is a favorite for afternoon "dress" affairs. It may be added that heavy stitching, except upon heavy dogskin gloves, is in-
Walls of Summer Houses.
During recent years the fashion of using narrow boards, tongued and grooved, in preference to plaster for the walls and ceiling of summer cottages has become very general. For one thing it is cheaper, and for another it puts a limit on the damage that can be done by a leaking roof during the winter months, when the house is closed.

Mrs. Carson Loves the Ocean.
What do you think of using an ocean steamer as a regular boarding place? It strikes one as rather odd, for most persons who cross the ocean are glad enough to get on shore again at the end of a week or ten days. Yet one of New York city's papers told recently of a woman who has crossed on the big Cunarder Lucania almost every trip since tho first time she sailed away from her home port. Before that the lady had crossed on other ships that pleased her, but the Lucania has been her home for two y&ars. In it she has made 40 voyages over the Atlantic. She has the same always, and it is fitted up with amiliar things one keeps about in in, so that it seems very home-

The officers on the ania and the stewards and servants so used to their regular passenger that on the three occasions on which she has failed to cross they have much missed her and felt as if all was not right aboard the ship. The lady, whose name is Mrs. Carson, likes the salt air and the ocean breezes, and as she has neithei husband nor children there is no reason to prevent her from making her home afloat
Picture Gowns.
Since exaggeration is not a part of fashion's plan this season, and large "picture hats" are going out of fashion, "picture gowns" have come to perpetuate the name. Just how they differ from a tea gown is not exactly clear, but they are said to suggest both mental and physical repose in the most subtle and luxurious manner. The gown is made of flounced silk with a trained skirt gathered full in the old fashioned way around the waist A deep corselet of velvet and a fichu trimming of Flemish lace complete the full waist—New York Sun.
