Chicken Salad DAYS are over.

am grateful, says a Vogue writer, that
we have passed the chicken salad period
of civilization, and that stewed oyters are
also dreadful memory of the past. One

the bar arttieS of New Years, and the
heavy luncheons consumed on those festive
funeral fetes In the days of our grand
fathers.

After all, have a strong objection to teas
and afternoon at homes l think the
London crush, which answers the same
purpose, is in much better form. The hour
is transposed from afternoon to evening
and the refreshments are as light and the
duties required Of you are simply to walk in

Much more sensible is this than spelling
your digestion before dinner by nibbling at

only informal, where few friends drop in
and are gathered together to partake of very

Another extraordinary idea in New York is
that people really expect you to go to teas

Bright as the stars and as blue as the skies
Her age is eighteen-She a perfect blonde
With meek as white as the snow beyond,
She owns fully half of this heart of mine,
And yet won't send her a valentine.
I've another sweetheart-a pale brunette
With tresses of silk as ebon as jet.
When look in her eyes | am undone
Then l wish the blonde were u clustered nun,
Or polygamy were a law divine
And yet can't send her a valentine.
I've third sweetheart with numpy back
And face as long as a railroad track
And chin that goes up to meet her nose
And nose inclined to visit her toos.
Her aged is exactly two score and nine

And times are as ha as was Pharaoh's heart.

For look ye the blond is as poor as job.

Then talrest OF creatures be mine ne mine;

Growth Of southern Industries.


1t is just beginning to be understood
I that there has been remarkable industrial
progress in the south since the close Of
the war of secession, and that this pro-
gress is greater now than at any previous
time. According to the Political EcOno-
mist, the estimated value of the manu-
/ featured products of the south for
the year 1860 was 1893, 422 522.
For 1865 the value of such prod
ucts must have been very much less
than it was in 1860, because the south had
just emerged from a most disas-
trous war. For the year 1892 the
estimated value of southern industrial
products was 1929, 7SS, 934. Such a show
ing as this, made under such adverse cir
cumstances, justiies the conclusion that
the output of the southern industries a
few years hence will astonish the world.
The talk Of the industrial development
of the south rests upon a solid foundation.
New mines of iron and coal are being
opened, and factories of one kind and an
other are being erected in all the southern
states.
And the factories pay good dividends
upon the money invested in them All
the well-managed factories of cotton
goods are in an exceptionally prosperous
condition, and southern iron mills can
compete successfully with those in any
other part of the world.
1t is a fact that the south stood the
panic of last summer better than any
other section of the country. There
were few failures and the financial dis
stress was scarcely apparent. The south
is in better financial condition to-day
than any other section. This state of
affairs has had the effect of drawing at
tention to the south, and it is reason
able to expect that within the next few
years there will be an immense amount
of money invested in the south. The
outlook for the south in certainly prom
Using one. Let the southern people de-
vote themselves energetically to the work
of building up their section, avoiding
speculation, and putting their money in
home enterprises, and they will be not
only prosperous but will have the salts
faction of seeing their section of the
country distance the other sections in
the percentage of the increase of wealth
and population.

The Post man replied afirmatively.
Well I've had to be out pretty late myself

veteran. "'Spose you go home often when

The Post man drew the line at this, and

Maybe the ancient observer from the

A Favored Glass.

II the income tax, as proposed in the
Wilson bill, should be adopted the sala-
ries of the President and of the federal
judges would be exempt from the tax.
Whether the salaries of the federal Of
fcials would be exempt is a question that
has not yet been decided,
In 1868 Chief Justice fancy wrote a
letter in which he said he regarded an act
of congress retaining in the treasury a
portion of the compensation of the judges
as unconstitutional and void The letter
was written in reference to the income
war tax. After the war Attorney Gen
eral Hoar gave an opinion to the effect
that the income tax retained of the sala-
ries of the judges must be returned to
them, and it was returned
The supreme court passed upon a sim
liar question in 1870. A collector assessed
SOL 80 upon the salary of a probate Judge
Of Massachusetts, and payment of the tax
was resisted. The matter was carried to
the supreme court. Mr.. Justice Nelson
delivered the opinion, holding the income
tax law unconstitutional Mr. Justice
Bradley dissented from the opinion.
If the salaries of judges are exempt, it
would seem as if those of other federal
officials would be. If the income tax
should be adopted it may give rise to some
interesting questions.

1t is barely a step from the sublime to

was victim of unrequited affection re-
solved to lay his life upon the altar of his
love. After inditing a burning epIstle to
his hearts idol, in which he told in heroic
language of his master passion, he leaped
out of a window, with the intention of
rendering himself a broken and bleeding
corpse, upon whose melancholy fate the
tickle woman might reflect in extreme bit
terness of spirit. But in his downward
fight his trousers caught on an iron hook,
broke the force of his fall and let him to

nose. His passion, by the way, was in

Notwithstanding the fact that the pat
ents ON the essential parts of the Bell
telephone have expired, the litigation be-
tween the United States government and
the Bell company is still going on. The
government has for years been taking

was the original inventor of the telephone,
for the purpose of sustaining a suit to an
null Bells patents, which have now ex-
pired by limitation. 1t is calculated "
