huIld, a nlnnsiou costing anywhere from
ON" hundred thousand to half a million
dollars, he commits an eNtravaganca, be-
cause a house Of mucn less cost would
srrller his family from the weather Us

rounds it with lawn filled with rub

tor men can sustain life without them.
Bot who is made poorer by it! Not the
b iil,ler himself, for he has an equivalent
for his money. Who i, made richer?
The carpenters and the masops. painters
and plumbers architects and Landscape
gardeners, florists and nurserymel l, cabl-
net makers and carpet weavers. Even
the men who cut the lumber, quarry the
stone, or make tie bricks and glass, and
those who own tie land from which the
materials come, all these and many more
are benefited by the mansion and the
grounds. 1t would not be an eXAggera-
ted statement to claim that in a twenty
five thousand dollar building there must
enter the labor of twenty-five thousand
men, all of whom must be paid for THEN
Labor And if the extravaganza of the
rich supports the poor, so also does the
extravaganza of the poor support the
rich. Whenever the poor man desires
ANYTHING more than the bare necessities
of life or desires even those, he must
contribute to thesupport of some of those
richer than himself In fact, it is what
might be called extravagance, the pur-
chasing of the IuXuries of life that con,
tribute to our pleasures, that mark the
line of civilization. The savage, wear.

from the weather. dwelling in the rudest
form of lut, and feeding upon the
spontaneous growth of his native soil or
lie products of his skill in hunting and
fishing, is not eXtravagant, until he be-
gins to ornament his person or his gar.
ments The man who gathers his dol
lars and boards them, is not eXtrava-
CANT. but of how much Use is he and his
wealth to the world? 1t is to the men
who spend money freely and live ex
travagantIy, that nations owe their pros

Comedians and Got the words.
When Donnelly and Girad, the come
lans, struck city not tIIousan mile.
rway early this season, the songs inrl'
lie tai to" Natural Gas" were new, says
lhr G. icago Post
The dittv about the horse Bonaparte
struck popular fancy, and ma eff
.urls were made to obtain the words.
he music was so easy a boy could re-
,n"mhpr the air, but as the comedians
paid Sl2j for the song, the words were
.:ept in close custody.
One of those who were nearly "tickled
10 beats" with the song was the editor of
E., local paper, who despatched stenoS-
rapIrr to take 1t. "
The strnographer, thinking the come.
dams !, uuld feel filttered by the presence
OF u shorthand writer, sat III { front
row. The song began and the reporter
whipped out his note book and com
nel ced to take it,. The comedians
reached the lines:
"Thr owner of horse and hack said
he would sell to him the fastest horse on
brighton llHCN, NIlth IiieN Hl'l'P'"'
The orchestra played on and wondered
what al happened. Then those on the
stage began guying the reporter, whose
face was now sutfused with blusiIes.
That an hence did not hear the rest ot
the song, nor did the audience the next
night.
Saturday night, however, the come
clians sang it again. The reporter was
there, but this time up III box III the
second gallery, ont of sight. He took
song, missing few wor s. which
were afterward realty supplied, and tie
editor published it in his paper the fol-
loving Monday evening.

How n Scotchmrn Has Discovered q
''Ridicul0us Mus'' of Econ omics.

How n Scotchmrn Has Discovered tho
:RidiculoUs Mus of Economics.
\ Scotchman one evening recently sat
looking at some mice. An idea struck
him. He decided to set the little thieves
at spinning yarn, and it was probably a
very astonished pair of mice that found
themselves few days later working a
small tread-mi in cage like those in
which white rats and other small ami
mails are kept, but without the slightest
idea that they were paying theirb board in
this way.
An ordinary mouse can twist over 100
threads on reels every day, although to
do this he has to run 10t miles.
He is not going to have any plum cake,
though, now that he has gone into honest
business, nor even cheese, only penny S
worth of oatmeal every five weeks. This
does not seem very generous board to be
paying for hard work, but it makes fine
profit for his employer.

The Verdict Unnnlmous.

1t pleases the lawyer and his client,
toD, to have the verdict of the jury
unanimous. n great jury composed
of the American public has rendered
an unanimous verdict on Dr.. Hale's
Household Cough Cure as a medicine,
agreeing that its promises of speedy
cure for coughs, colds and bronchial
troubles are always carried out to the
letter. This pleasant verdict has not
been obtained without great pains
taken to make it the best cough cure
on the market. Try q bottle when you
have a cough or cold and you viii be-
long to the 'upanimous" ever after.

THE BRIDAL GOWN. the sleeves are
exactly right to a fold, and that the
dainty orange blossoms on her shoulders
and in her hair are fresh and sweet, for
they must be real, and she will pass a
blissful hour, whether her dream ever
realizes or not.
Half the marriages come about Just
because n young girl cannot resist the
desire to be arrayed in bridal robes. No
toilet, however superb, can fill q girls
ideal of perfection but this. If | were
a young man and wanted to press my
suit, would save my money, and not
spend it on flowers and candy, but
would haunt the fashion books and
make IN album of bridal gowns which
"she' should have. "She" could not re-
sist it, for by some subtitle process that
no one can ever define she would in
spirit enter into one of those pictured
forms and never rest satisfied until the
dream was q reality. She might add a
white velvet prayer book to this outfit,
or she might carry a bouquet, which
ever pleased her best.
At home after the wedding there
would be bewitchiug array of pretty
morning and afternoon gowns to show
Charlie or Johnnie that he had not
made bad bargain and got u wife who
was pretty only in her bridal attire.
There is one dark red cashmere break
fast gown, en- princesae, with black vel
vet vest front, collar and cuffs, and In it
she looks sweet enough to eat and
would charm away the gloomiest rain
clouds, Every woman should have at
least one bright colored home dress on
purpose for dull, rainy days, and SO she
would be literally the brightness and
sunlight Of home. Men and boys love
to see the head of the household in
bright colorod gowns.
In the afternoon, when all the domes-
tic machinery has been oiled and pol
ished, the little wife may sit down qui-

THE sPEAKERsHIP.
The Ola Fight Between the Crisp and
Mills Factions.

The Louisville Post has q special
from Washington which gives this
account of the fight for the Speaker
ship Of The next House:
"Some Of the trouble which will
fall to the lot OF the Democratic lead
ers Is already beginning to crop out.
There promises to he factional fights,
one Of which will be the revival of
the contest on the same lines as were
found in the struggle which defeated
Mills for the Speakership two years
ago. The friends of Crisp have fear
ed that the tinkeriug way In which
he permitted the tariff question to be
handled at the last session of Con-
gress msy defeat him for reelection
10 Congress. In fact, Benton McMil-
Ian is half way in the field for
Speaker.
"On the ground OF Crisp's weak.
ness as a tariff refoTmer he expects the
support Of such radical reformers as
the Breckinridgcs, Tom johnson and
Southern and Western Democrats
generally.
"To Offset this, Crisp's friends say
that the present Speaker, ifre-elected,
will bounce Chairman Springer and
put Mcmillan at the head OF the
WAYS and Means Committee.
He will also agree to let the radical
reformers put through any tariff bill
that may suit themselves. As a
paDacea for Springer he will be given
the Craftsmanship Of the Appropria-
ton Committee, an equally important
position This will leave Holman
out in the cold, but such a fate would
meet general approval, as his pecu-
liar methods ofecouomy made him
universally unpopular"
