Show A WOMAN'S WARBLE. : I n By "Roma." Hlave you ever studied pictures of savage people? Have you noted Ihch J- extreme partiality iui feathers? Well the fashionable nowadays seem leaning lean-ing very strongly that way, according accord-ing to their partiality for garniture of this discription. A veritable feather-wave feather-wave seems floating about in feminine circles. The fashionable world, church goers, theatre patrons, and cafe haunters, haun-ters, all seem possessed of the feather mania. Sometimes you sec a whole black and white bird. Then again only his ' head and tail on a hat, and some- JH times you think you sec a wee b?by ostrich cuddled upon "mi lady's" bonnet; bon-net; but he is minus head and feet, so can't be fulflcdgcd. But any live sportsman would be forgiven today, if he took a snapshot at this game. When brought before the judge to answer to the charge of killing game, out of season, he could plead that he had mistaken his bird and go free. Monday, was Labor day, and such a sight to behold: Every mercantile mercan-tile establishment's fire sales, were reproduced in the aggregation of individuals in-dividuals congregated at the resorts In one glance you could figure, the sum total of your man's personal paraphernalia. pa-raphernalia. Charlie was there, he's a popular fellow at the resorts; all attired in a checkered suit, but he forgot to take off the selling price - i mark, ($15.) He got it for half price j now, because, you sec, one leg of the pants was shorter than the other, and ' the buttons didn't match; his hat was I straw and now only cost him fifty cents; his necktie, shirt and vest thrown into the bargain. This is the advantage of being a good dresser in Salt Lake. His watch in soak, to stand the installment, and pay train fare, but he didn't care, he's a popular fellow, has lots of tact. Then "She," was there; the sum total too of a wax model in the shop window paid for the whole outfiit from hat to shoes and when fully adorned, looked like a veretable fashion fash-ion plate, at Saltair. But it takes all ; kinds of people to make a world. ... It is said that the women of Omaha, Oma-ha, have raised a most serious objection ob-jection to the window displays, garnished gar-nished with wax models of women, I adorned in lingerie, hose and dainty Robe-de-Chambrcs. funny! Seems ( that these amateur "Penelopes," are afraid that the common herd will breathe, comment, and observe, items that may eventually shatter all realistic real-istic conceptions of original "Fair Femininity,, with an utterly utter "kangaroo walk." k A rat, a few side combs, a nice " - little talk; A pad, a few laces to deceive if she can, This 'false haired, false hearted girl; the poor man. ... Then there was a case brought be- fore the notice of Judge Morse, last week. A woman it seems is always bobbing up in court circles. This time she turned down a poor cripple. In a unique corner crevice, near the post "v. office stands a little grey dry goods box, a newstand, with a smattering of papers scattered about. And ou wonder why so many stop as they pass by, with papers under arm. It is to put a nickel in the palm of Geo. i Jcwett, the cripple newsman, and a kind word in the slot. Poor George is in trouble now and he rricd to Judge M'orsc, when lie said his wife turned him down because be-cause he was a cripple and endeavored endeavor-ed to save his pennies for a rainy day. t lie can now have the personal satis- faction of enjoying single blessedness. Thi; is his privilege. Cut we all have troubles of our own. This, big world is full of it. |
