WOMEN AS FUR BUYERS.

As Rule They Have But Limited
knowledge Of the Goods.
Very few women have any practical
knowledge of furs, declares the Brook
lyn Eagle. The buying and selling OF
skins haye been principally the busi-
ness Of shreWd, sharp men, but in one Of
Brooklyn's stores theresa young woman
who can tell you at once the quality of
the skin in question. She has much
practical knowledge Of the goods she
handles and it very often happens that
customers ask for her, feeling great
confidence in what she tells them. This
girl not only took the prize ior having
sold the largest number of garments
through the holidays, but has also just
taken q very large order, perhaps the
largest single order ever taken in
Brooklyn or possibly New York. More
over, the garment is for a Brooklyn
woman, to be Of cloth lined with silver
tipped Russian sable, the Innings alone
to cost one thousand four hundred and
eighty dollars. It is to be worn next
winter. It is 4 well-known fact that
the price cf furs is continually on the
increase. A buyer of skins says that
he has just paid fifteen thousand dol
lars for the same number Of skins
which last year at the same time cost
the firm only eight thousand dollars.
At this + ~ furs will soon be great
luxury. They are not 50 extravagant,
however, as it at first appears, for often
Innings or sets, well kept, are handed
down as heirlooms through several gem
erations. A woman who took her grand
mothers two sets Of inl-tippet, muf
and cuffs and made them into fancy
floor mat, was inclined to regret the pro-
ceeding when told the first Of the winter
mink was to be fashionable, but mink
as q wearing fur has not been q success.
The furs look quite as well made into a
hearth rug as they would have done
made over into cape.

IA Burning Time Card.

Behind the desk at the Auditorium
hotel in Chicago j. group Of three in.
candescent lamps. At night it has been
noticed that one, two, or all of these
lights would burn for short time and
then 60 out. The lamps were connected
with the three stations located on the
upper floors of the hotel and these sta
tions are connected with the annunci-
ators IN the rooms. Each station IS
supplied with ice water, etc When a
guest presses a button in his room, it
rings the bell at one Of the stations, the
light In the Office is turned Oh and =.
front from the station answers the call.
The light burns while the boy Is maxi
ing the run, and Is turned out al soon as
he returns to the station. The clerks
are then able to tell just how long the
boys are in making the run. Then itaf-
fords an opportunity to bet on how long
the light will burn.

GREEcE's ROYAL FAMILY.
The Kings Frugality, the Queens Char

The Kings Frugality, the Queens Char,
tiles and the Princes Modesty.
The income OF King Georges, or
Greece, is estimated at about six mil-f
lion dollars. He has no expenses toi
speak of, says the London Truth, ex-l
cept when he travels, and he hardly
ever lodges on first or second floor Of
the hotels where he puts up. The farm
at his country place Of Takac suppGes
the palace with wine, oil, meat, poul-
try and garden produce. Baron Erlanger
is always sending bourse tips to Athens,
and the king understands their value.
When he was minor his uncle Prince
John, of Holstein, regularly invested
the civil list savings in Greek bonds, !
which were then between thirteen and
fifteen. His menus plaisirs only cost
him bracelets and brooches, and that
chiefly when he comes to France. The
queen devotes her large fortune to her
children and to the relief of the poor.
She is in quite unostentatious and
simple manner sister Of charity
While the king attends to private and
public business, she goes round hos-i
pitfalls and visits sick and suffering per-.
sons, some Of whom may be personal
friends, strangers at Athens Or poor
creatures. She says that if she ever had
q vocation for anything it is for hos
pital work. The Greeks have no re-
spect for royalty as such, and know
nothing of aristocracy, but they love
and rever their generous hearted queen,
and have adopted all her children. The
day on which her daughter Alexandra
was leaving, as bride, for r ussia, the
population for thirty miles gathered to
| the Pir@us to see her off and wish her
long and happy life. Tears stood in
the eyes Of most of the spectators. AL
King Georges children are handsome
and look robust. They have no titles,
not even the eldest son, and are known
| by their Christian names. He il only
known as the duke of Sparta abroad
| When he and his second brother were
travelling a few years ago In Germany
| a hotel keeper, knowing they were
royal, asked them to write down their
names in his visitors book. They
thought it . good joke for the senior
brother to set himself down AS Pring-
hips Catiti (prince Of Something on An
other) and the Junior one as Comis Tip
/ ote (count of Nothing at ALL.

CONCERNING CHEWING GUM.

The Most or It Contains Paraf1ne Wax
Which Ii Very Injurious
The fine distinctions required by legal
definitions frequently threaten ccnfu-
sion, even when the facts appear to be
perfectly clear. There Il no room for
doubling the inconvenience and danger
which may arise from the accumulation
Of mass of parafine wax In the intes-
tines: and yet when any legal interfer-
ence with the sale OF chewing gum, con-
tanning fifty per cent. of this substance
is attempted, the charming uncertain-i
ties and quibbles which arise are more
amusing than edifying, says Londoni
Lancet. In d recent prosecution at the
Hanley borough police court 1t was'
first contended that the fourteenth sec-l
tion OF the food and drugs act, which re-
lates to the division of the substance In Il
the presence Of the seller at the time OF
purchase, had not been complied with. ,
Then it was submitted that the article !
was not one Of food, since II was sold
simply for chewing. Then it was sug-s
gested that as sweets are 50 utterly in
definite III their composition, it was im-i
possible to deal with them as ordinary
articles OF food. And the climax was
reached in the contention that II wasl
not sold to the prejudice Of the pur-
chaser as the complainant said he did
not intend to eat it. This was extreme-l
III ingenious, but the purchaser hap
pened to be the inspector Of nuisances,
who was merely collecting evidence.
The case ended for the present with the
imposition Of a fine, on the ground that
the substance was sold to the prejudice.
of the purchaser, inasmuch as it was
not in the nature Of the substance and
quality Of the article demanded by the
| purchaser, who asked for gum and got,
paraffine wax. If the caseis ever taken
to higher. court tits quite possible that
| it may be argued that the complainant!
did not ask for gum but for chewing
fgum;" that he did not get ''parafine
wax but only fifty per cent Of par
affine wax and the remaining fifty per.
cent. Of unknown ingredients which
sufficiently bring the Substance within
the legal meaning Of chewing gum. =
| But what Is chewing gllm?" The fol-
| lowing definition might be suggested:
A substance of very variable compost
tion, ignorantly employed BY children,
which, when containing parafine wax,
may lead to very grave dangers, and the
sale Of which should be prohibited.
