THE SAME SE GIRL.
Her Garments Are scanty, and She Is an
Inveterate Smoker.

Her Garments Are scanty. and She Is an
Inveterate Smoker.
From the moment of her birth ST.
amese girl is treated with less consider
alton than boy. For several years aft
er quitting the realms of "babyland"
she dresses very slightly indeed Il refer
more particularly to the lower classes,
though the rule applies more or less
generality. Next she adopts the sarong,
or waist cloth, and on top of this is
placed bright colored scarf of consid-
cradle length and breadth, which is Gus
tomarily crossed and recrossed over the
breast and under the arms. These two
garments constitute the whole Of ST.
amese girls wearing apparel unless she
chance to wear scanty vest of linen.
Rings and bracelets are inevitable, pro-
vided she be of class enough to afford
them, and in few cases the costume is
finished off with fiimsy pair of slip
pers, into which the stockingless feet
are thrust.
The average Siamese girl is an invet-
crate smoker of cigarettes from very
tender age. When quite baby, too,
she, in common with the rest of the
population, is taught to chew the leaf
and nut of the betel palm-at least
she does not require to be taught" this
unlovely but (if we may believe what
we see) fascinating pastime. Since,
however, she knows full we'll that she
will be esteemed passee, not to say an
cient, at the age of 80 she concentrates
the whole of her intellect upon the seri-
Gus business of either entering the pal
ace or getting married. But if it be the
latter, the marriage in Siamese middle
and upper class life is the most elabo-
rate function that an English girl could
imagine. The negotiation-what we
should term the "courting lis gener
ally conducted in the first instance
through an old beldame. 1t is this old
woman's business to discover among
other things whether the stars in their
courses" are propitious toward the hap
Ply event and whether the respective
birthdays of the bride and bridegroom
fall suitably to the date fixed for their
union, for in all such matters the ST.
amese would appear to be even more su-
perstitious than their Buddhist belief
might reasonably be expected to make
them, -Gentleman $ Magazine.

STARTERS OF RESTAURANTS
A Business Operation by Which Some Mel

A Business Operation by Which Some Men
Make Considerable Money.
1t may seem strange to say so - re-
marked a lawyer the other day, but it
is true, nevertheless, that there are men
i'll the city who are getting rich by es-
tablishing restaurants that do not pay.
/ This is the way they do it: A cheap
shop is rented and fitted up as Il restau.
rant at a cost, say. of $3.50. Food val
ued at about 500 is purchased and
some judicious advertising is done.
More food is sold for the money then
than customers can get anywhere else
in the neighborhood. The result is Il
crowded restaurant, though the pro
/ prietor is losing money steadily. When
he has first class line of patrons and
he appears to be doing Il big business,
he advertises the place for sale III
health or desire to move south, east
or west is one of the excuses. Custom
ers appear promptly, and the proprietor
usually sells his place for 81, 200 or
s 800 half i'll cash. His investment
has not been more than 800, SO he
clears from $500 to $1,000. Of course
the place proves failure, and the pur
chaser loses his money. The restaurant
starter, however, moves TO another por-
ton of the city and repeats his enter
prise
The lawyer said that he recalled one
man in particular who had started no
less than ten restaurants in the last six
months, all of which he sold. With two
exceptions the places did not pay, and
the men who bought them We're COM
PEELED to close them. New York Com

FACTS ABOUT HEALTH

1t is Easy to Keep Well it w '>ac"
How Some of the Conditions Neceo-
sary to Perfect Health.
The importance OF maintaining good
health is easily understood, and /, -
really simple matter If we take 6 cor.
rect view OF the conditions required.
In perfect health the stomach promptly
digests food. The blood is employed to
carry nourishment to tn organs, nerves,
muscles and tissues which need it.
The first great essential for good health,
therefore, is pure, rich blood. No medi-
cine has such a record of cures as Hoods
SarsapariIa and it is because it is the one
true blood purifier. Hundreds of people
are alive and we'll today who would have
been in their graves had they not taken
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t is depended upon
as a family medicine by thousands.

Sousn's Concert.

The limit of the audience at the Lafay-
cite last night was the size OF the house
There was no other limit. And everybody,
downstairs and up stairs and in the
gallery, Joined in one welcoming burst of
applause when Sousa appeared. The pro-
gram was not q long one ON paper. But
the audience insisted on making it nearly
double its original size by their encore
habit. They insisted on at least one
encore to nearly every piece, and the conse-
quence was that, If one wanted to know
what was being played and did not recog-
nize the music, the program was not of
very much use. Requests had been re.
ceived for Mr. Sousa's new march, The
Bride Elect, in such numbers that this was
also added to the evenings entertainment.
Itisone of those overpo weringly rhythmical
things that set one marching, whether one
can march or not. It's movement and
melody are IN Mr. Sousa s best style, and it
viii before long be as ubiquitous as several
of his other marches have been. The
soprano soloof Miss Maud Reese Davies and
the violin solo of Miss Jennie Hoyle were
both well received.

BUTCHERED BY APLAYMATE
a Terrible Crime Committed Near

Discovery OF the Victims Body
Horribly Mutilated THE Al.
legged Murderer a Dullard

Philadelphia, Jan. 16.-In the bed of a
creek, skirting the edge of Lacken's
woods. in a remote southern part of the
city, there was found this morning the
body Of a murdered little boy, six years
old He had been missing since Friday
noon. The child was Percy Lockyear,
one of family of seven small children.
on Friday Percy did not return home
from school Investigation showed
that he was last seen in the company of
Samuel Henderson, a fifteen-year- old
boy. who went to the school after him.
Henderson, who is dullard, said he
had seen nothing of Percy, but it hap
pened that another boy, Willie Addi-
son, a schoolmate of Percy, was with
him when Henderson came to the
school. and he went along with Hen
woods to cut sticks While there Hen
derson tied Addison and Percy to tree
with strings. Addison broke away
from captivity and ran away, fright
ened. Before he had run far he heard
screams from the direction of the creek.
He waited awhile until he saw Hender-
son coming up the hill with Percy s
clothing. Then he fed to his home.
Upon hearing the boy Addison's story
the police decided To arrest Hender-
son. 1t was not until the detectives
fairly dragged a statement from him
that the case assumed q serious aspect.
To the detectives Henderson said that
young Loekyear had fallen out of a
tree accidentally, and upon the point of
a knife. which stabbed him in the
heart. He said he thought the little
boy was dead, and, fearing the conse
quences of discovery, he had. thrown
the body in the creek. He took the po
lice to the place, but they failed to find
the body.
Henderson was locked up all night.
This morning the search for the miss
ing child was resumed. At 6 o'clock
the police found it in Il shallow spot,
face upward. One side of the face was
brutally crushed. apparently by a
heavy stone. There was a stab wound
in the forehead and several ragged cuts
on the face There We're stab-wounds
in the body, one directly over the
heart. which must have been fatal. The
little fellow had been butchered. The
police now have on their hands young
criminal. unmoyed by the knowledge
that his crime has been revealed. The
lads father has been convicted of mur-
der in the second degree, but never SEN
fenced.

DORA CLAY RETURNS HOME
Her Venerable Husband over
joyed at Meeting Her.
HIS LONG MOURNING ENDED
No Further Shooting Incidents Re-
corded Thus Far. But a Disposition
cIfned Brother for Hts Conduct
Affecting Scene ut White Hall.

Valley View, KY, jan 1G.--Dora Clay
borrowed n horse from Squire Masters
this morning and rode to White Hail
to see Gen. Clay. She attempted to
walk the distance, seven miles, yester-
day, but the roads were SO deep with
mud that she turned back, after going
a short distance. She had tried all the
neighbors to borrow a horse, but this
morning she concluded to try Squire
Masters again.
After much pleading she persuaded
the Squire to loan her horse and she
started toward White Hall alone FL
nally she reached the turnpike on
which her brother, VIII Richardson,
lives. AS she passed his house Will
saw her. He had not heard of the
shooting. He ran out and asked where
she was going and what was the mat
ter. She told him. He said: mo mat
ter if Gen. Clay is mad at me, / will
see you safely there. If Clell attempts
to interfere with you l Will Kill him.
l am sorry / did not kill him when l
tried three weeks ago. The cowardly
dog, to shoot at his own sister,
Dora tried to dissuade him from go
ing to White Hall, but he got his plS-
tolls and went with her. He opened the
gates through the farm, and when he
had let her into the front yard he wait
ed until Jim Litttrell came to her as
sistance and then left her. Jim was
surprised to see Dora, and he ran to
the generals room and told him that
she had come.
He had been crying over her mis-
fortune, but his tears turned to tears
of joy as he opened the door and saw
his child wife before him. Thank
Cod" he said, Il never expected TO see
you alive again. Bless your brave lit
tie heart, ] knew you would return if
they would allow you.
The scene, according to Litttrel. was
a most affecting one. They embraced
and the general showered kisses upon
his young wife. She seemed glad to
meet him, and il is more than likely
she will never leave White Hall again
to live with her relatives.
- Litttrell did not know whether she
would remain at White Hall tonight.
Mrs. Kelly said that Dora intended to
return this evening, but she had failed
TO come at o'clock. Clell Richardson
has not been seen to-day. Several per-
sons have raped on his door, but re-
eeived no reply. No members of his
family have been seen. Willie Bryant
is also missing. John and Tom Rich
ardson declare that they will assist
Gen. Clay in prosecuting CleH for
shooting at Dora.
