Rich patronesses of the leading res
taurants, like the men, have their IA
voTite tables and favorite walters, who
are permitted by the proprietor to tilt
the chairs at such a table if they have
even a suspicion that the rich visitors will
put in anappearance. The favorite is apt
TO be a handsome man, and some ohurl-
ish old fault-fn might object that he
puts his face too near to milady s while
taking her order. But she doesn't OBJ
ject. II Is no more to her than lap
dog. She smiles her sweetest upon him,
and while he is serving the tenderlOin Of
trout or the canape Lorenzo, she calls
the attention of her guests to the white
ness of his hands, the beauty of his eyes,
the polish of his manners and his tournure
generally. Happy Jules, with his lib
eral fees. But all walters can't be
Sules. Many of them must content
themselves with the boys and quarter
tips.

The very latest whim is a powdered
dinner. All the guests, male and fe-
male, come with hair powdered white as
the driven snow. There must be no
chandelier-onIy tapers, covered with
small, sliding shades of pink silk. The
powdered heads compose q superb ar
rangement in white which show up
delightfully."- under the soft, rose colored
light The damask table cloth is deco
rated in this manner: Take Parma vio-
lets, remove the stems, and with very
small pins work out the bottom of the
cloth in viOlets. White roses and white
lilies in low, cut glass vases ornament
the table. White boutonniers await the
guests. The menu is entirely made up
Of white dishes-white sauces, white
meats, white sheTbet and white dessert.
To attain the finest effect invite only
dark-eyed guests. The effect is simply
bewiIdering. Try one of these powdered
dinners. The thing ought not to cost
over SO a head, twelve guests Sl20-say
$50 for powdered dinner. It's moth
ing for a man who puts $40 600 in a single
piece of horse flesh.

ment policy OF the semi-tontine kind is
obtained upon the life Of any young man
who is willing TO serve Tor the purpose, and
who can pass the medical examination. OF
course, II the young men are willing 70 pay
the premiums they are encouraged to do so.
But in the great majority OF cases the
church assumes the paying Of the premiums,
and as outside of that there is little or no
objection 70 having ones lie insured, the
young men do not hesitate TO consent to the
priests application.
when the plan was first preached it was
necessary to get the consent OF the arch
bishop to it. He went into an exhaustive
Investigation and consideration OF the
matter, and gave is his hearty approval.
Then | proceeded to lay il before the priests
Of such churches as were in condition to
profit by it. Soue of the priests at first
felt that the burden of interest upon the
church debt and premiums upon the insur-
ance policies would be too great; but when
l asked them if they didn't intend making
some provision to pay off the principal Of
the debt, they saw that the burden was
there anyway, and the thing TO do was to
arrange as easy plan as possible for re-
moving it.
Under this plan there is a saving in the
course of twenty years Of about 40 per cent.
on the principal, where there are no deaths

paid up. If, out of the eight or ten young
men insured in each congregation, there
were one or two or more deaths in the
meantime the debt would be paid Off so
much the quicker. 1t is practical sinking
fund for the extinction of the church debt,
and is about as easy a manner of making
provision for the payment as can be. l
cannot tell you what churches have
adopted this plan, but there is a large
number of them, and the amount Of the pol
icies reaches up into the hundreds of thous-
auds of dollars. No, there Is no good rea-
son why churches of the Protestant COM
munion should not engage in the same plan
for the extinction of their church debts.
But two life insurance companies have as
yet issued policies to any extent under this
scheme, but that is not their fault"

HOW CHURCH DEBTS MAY BE PAID
Life Insurance Policies Turned Into
Sinking Funds.
From, the Netc York Times.


A new way has been found by the Roman
Catholic clergy of New York to provide for
the payment of church debts. 1t is found
in what are considered the profitable pro-
visions of the tontine endowment policies
issued by some of the larger life insurance
companies of this city. The scheme has
been in operation two years, but has been
conducted with such secrecy as to escape
public attention. A Times reporter called
upon the managers of several of the more
prominent companies before he found au-
Identification of the suggestion that the
authorities Of the Roman Catholic church
were carrying policies upon the lives OF
regiment o. more of their young men.
In the Office of Broadway company one
of the governing officials, himself Roman
Catholic, introduced an agent to whom be-
longs tue credit of working up the scheme.
This agent, an Irish gentleman, is also
member OF the Roman Catholic church. he
said:
Some years ago, when the plans for the
Roman Catholic University at Washington
were being considered, had a plan for
raising a large sum of money for q gift to
that object That plan fell through, but
this one grew out of it. You know-at
least every clergyman of every denomina-
ton knows-how difficult it is to raise
money to pay off a large church debt
well, by this plan priest has the lives
OF few Of the young men Of his congre-

premiums are s.mall-for the benefit of the

From the Menlphis Avalanche

A Crucial Question Now Agitating
the Memphis Cotton Exchange.
From the Memphis Avalanche.
''This coat or no coat business is more
serious than most folks think for" said q
member of the cotton exchange yesterday
"The exchange is split into two factions,
and the Lord only knows where it will end
/ see the fellows who want everybody to
wear coats have printed lot of stuff about
manners, and 50 forth. l can't see that
manners has anything to do
with it. One can be gentle

Does the coat make the gentleman? l don't
think SO. The most elegant man l ever
knew was planter Of the old regime who
never wore a coat except at his table, from
the first of May to the first of October. His
shirts, though, were marvels of wilderness
and frills, and he could hand lady out of
her carriage with more grace than any
body. His hands were as white as cotton
and his wristbands as spotless as the driven
snow. 1 think it's more question of clean
shirts than coats"
That's my idea," said another member.

Gatens and Fisher and the other dudes2
We have got to go IN for comfort in this
climate. Because a man wears his coat in
New orR or chicago. IS That a reason
why we should do it here's l trow not"
These coat fellows are not sincere,
either" remarked another. why, l saw
one of them march up and sign that petition
in his shirt sleeves. Another one of the
signers was seen sitting on his front porch
last Sunday with his bare feet perched ON
the top rail Of the banisters. How is that
for stylep
whats the matter with the old Greeks
and Romans9n asked another. "Why, they
didn't even wear breeches, and yet l am
told they were considered very stylish. If
we were to go around in nightgowns like
those fellows we'd be fired into jail"
The fact is that the coat is the apple Of
discord in the cotton exchange, so to speak,
and the bitterness aroused by the discussion
of the topic is liable to outlast the dog
days, especially as there is no cotton for
sale and the members Of the exchange have
nothing TO do but talk.

Lemons are used for soap in many coun-
tries where they grow. When, for instance,
the men and women of the West Indies
want to wash their hands they squeeze the
Juice of lemon over them briskly in water
until they are clean. There is an acid in
the lemon similar to that used in soap. And
in countries where oranges grow in great
plenty country gentlemen use the cheapest
kind for blacking their boots. The orange
is cut in two and the juicy side of one-half
