THE Albuquerque Times gives
some of its young people the follow
ing send-off:
"She is a finished, conscientious,
painstaking actress, who makes 70
distinction between an Albuquerque
and New York audience, so far as
her art goes; but says she, Il
wouldn't play for such 'hoodlums'
again for all the money your mana
ger could give me-
"'Captain Swift brought tears to
the eyes of more than one gentlemen
the other night, but while a half a
dozen brave young fellows were
batting their eyes to keep back the
drops that were like to trlckle down
their checks, and of which they were
just a bit ashamed, another half
dozen 'hoodlums,' of both sexes,
were glgling and saying real cute
things in their real blase style.
"And they are all Sin the swim,
and wear swallow tail coats and
chiffon and pearls, and honestly be-
lieve themselves to be gentlemen and
ladies. But there's a mistake some
where, and even Traviata, in her
paint and powder and shame, looks
at them with disdain born of super
iority, in good breeding at least"

THE world owes its progress and
wealth to those who give thought,
time and money to new industries.
Those who hold back, hunt for easy
places for themselves and perfectly
safe places for capital, are not the
great benefactors of mankind nor the
great openers of the paths of true
wealth.

Now THE gay holiday season is
over it is time to give some thought
to the bed coverings that Santa
Claus forgot to bring. Bed spreads
and bolster covers are made of linen
monte cloth. 1t is quite simple
matter to have a bed comfortable
and at the same time look pretty and
inviting. There is a cotton batting
now made which comes in even lay
ers, stitched in place by machine. 1t
saves all annoyance in arranging the
cotton and may be as easily laid on
as muslin. Pretty comfortables are
made from the many colored cheese
cloths. II requires ten yards to
make one, and from three to four
rolls of cotton batting. White and
lavender cheese cloth makes a pretty
combination, and so does pale yellow
tied and buttonedholed all around.
The latter looks particularly we'll in
white and gold rooms.

A CAUTIOUS PRESIDENT.

The frequency with which New
York bank cashiers take advantage
of their opportunities is causing some
disgust. The president of a New
York bank remarked not long since
to one of the principal stockholders
and depositors:
81 feel much safer about the funds
than / did last week"
81 am glad to hear it. l have been
feeling very uneasy about my mo-
ney. What precaution have you
taken?"
"Pve had a special telephone wire
connected with the Grand Central
depot, and the man who sells tickets
has got a photograph of our cashier,
so if he goes to Canada we will know
in time to have the scoundrel ar
rested"
About week afterward the presi-
dent himself went to Montreal with
most of the assets.
