It is the fact that for the last thirty if not longer, the trooper of the United Biates bas been taught an atte pommel and cantle. The Indian bridle is the simplest hind of a single-rein snaffle-bit affair, head at ail gut. Our bridle is goad enough head at all gaits. ri enough, but the bits are atrocities. Our saddle as now made is probably as simple, serviceable and excelient an affair for military purposes as be found in any army im the world. But—here is the daw. In the instruction for eaddling in the Cavalry Tactics of the United States we find these words: “Place the saddle on the horse's back, well forward on the withers.” Now the fore legs of the horse have to sustain much more of his weight than the hind legs at any time; but, saddle him as preseribed, ‘-well for- ward on the withers,” and load that saddle ‘With two hundred pounds of rider, equipments. and you have at once the explana- tion why ninety out of a hundred of our cav- alry horses break down in front.

What to Do and What Not to Do in Polite Society. ‘Es, SUERWOOD's CORRESPONDENCE COLUMN— EVENING DRESS FOR YOUNG LADIES, WIDoWs. AND WEDDINOS—THE PROPER THING AT A DIN- NER PARTI—HOW TO GET INTO SOCIETY. ‘The following are the questions and answers that have been selected for publication this week as being of the most general interest: “Florence Faille” writes: ‘I would like to be informed if upon receiving cards, one which says, ‘Mrs. John Smith, at home December 26 from 4 to 7,’ another inclosed saying, ‘Mra. John Smith, Tuesdays'in January,’ if it is nec- essary after attending reception to also call upon one of the Tuesdays in January. Also, in sending cards to a mother and daughter must there be a card addressed to each one sepa- rately, or can it be Mrs. Smith and family or Mrs. Smith and daughters?” A your card “Mrs, Smith, the Misses Smith,” and send on her day. It is not incum- bent on you to call on Tuesdays after the re- ception; they are merely added on to the invi- tation to give those an opportunity of calling who could not get to the reception. “Violet” asks “if it is proper to use a ten- = in the evening.” No; itis not. In Eng- ind ladies sometimes wear a very smart tea- gown when dining alone with their husbands, vat they would not wear one to receive evening company.

It should de- pend on his size and looks. Keep to the round Jacket and collar as long as you can; it is so very pretty. “Inquirer” asks: “What is the custom or eti- quette when an expectant bride receives many presents? The wedding has several timesbeen Bostponed—has been indefinitely postponed, the presents be returned to the donors?” ‘Yes; if an engagement is broken the wedding Presents are all returned, “Ignoramus” asks if a full dress suit is proper for New Year's day or afternoon calls, come when it will hold no more.

But her next door neighbor, whomay, although rich, have very poor blood in her veins, and who may not be at all sure in her own mind that she deserves to be in society—she will affect to not know those whom she has once known! she will ignore her own past; she will make it difficult for the modest new comer to succeed; she is a vulgar snob. no matter where she hap- Pens tg stand in the ranks of fashion, WHAT TO DO AND WHAT NOT TO Do. “To get on in society,” involves much that cannot be written down.
