4 BOYS VALUE.

That was a very precise jury that dealt with the case of Addison against the town of Ellwood, Indiana. MT. Ad- dison's little boy, eight years old, fell into a sewer and was drowned MT. Addison sued the town, and the jury gave him a verdict for $599.95, the net cash value of the boys life from eight to twenty-one years, when he would have been his own master, figuring it in this way: From eight to ten years old the boy would be able to make 45 cents week. During that period it would cost S5 cents week to keep him. From ten to twelve he would make 75 cents a week, and it would cost SIPS to keep him. From twelve to fourteen he would make $4 a week and the living cost would be $2. From fifteen to eighteen he could make $5 week, and the living cost would be s2.75. From eighteen to twenty-one he could make $6 a week, and the living cost would be $4.
 Some boys are certainly worth more than $599.95 even in a money sense, and the sentimental value of some boys to their parents is incalculable But, curiously enough, when the sentimental value of a boy to the parents is extra high, other folks frequently can't see where the value comes in.

PROGRESSIVE PARIS,

Automobiles have been seen in suo,, cities as New Haven and New York but it is in the city of Paris that they are the most numerous and useful. Con- SUI General Gowdy reports to the state department that there has been mark ed increase during the past year in the use of automobiles in the city of Paris not only as pleasure vehicles, but as public cabs and delivery wagons. It is announced that soon there will be 100 motor cars driven by electricity run ming in the streets of Paris, and, if the experiment be successful, that cabs will be increased to 1000.
 A training ground has been made for the cabmen. This is laid out with ev- cry possible form of paving, wood. asphalt, stone, etc., including two steep hills. Here and there are dotted about number of dummy figures, and in and out of these the cabmen have to manoeuvre under an instructor. Each cab is supplied with sufficient power to be driven thirty miles at about eight miles an hour.
 Paris has the Dreyfus case and a rev. olution or two on its mind, but it can still attend to business and to pleasure.

EASHION NOTES.
White Fronts Prevail.

In four out of five fashionable cos- tunes, no matter what the nature of the wear, there is a touch of white at throat or in bodice front. If the white appears only in the tie, it may still be an elaborate touch of it, for while all sorts of white ties are in vogue, some of them are highly wrought delicacies
 There are elaborate affairs of silk or null and hand work, to mere expanses of white. Many of the scarfs seem made to wear only till the first soiing, and then be thrown away, being either to delicate to stand tubbing or cleans ing, or of pattern which does not per init of cleaning. For instance, there

are ties of crisp wash blond, fluted in wonderful complication of folds that cannot possibly be restored after wash- ing Ascot stocks remain in favor, but many of them are so dainty that the ascot of old would not recognize it's kin.
 Because of the larger field for elabo- rations, the tendency in fronts toward fanciful effects is greater than in ties but even here plain ones are many and some of them are highly ornamental. Rules for treatment of the white front are not set; so it's there, individual taste can have pretty much it's own way in it's arrangement One is put in this picture that is simple and original. Others equally pretty might not resem- ble it in the least, so great is the variety that exists. This one was figured white chiffon outlined with 0 zigzag quilling of black chiffon. Tucked puffs topped the sleeves, and black satin furnished the belt Turquoise blue surah was the waists material.
 The new linen moreen is promising substitute for silk. It resembles silk Things of the moire velour order, but should wear even better than all wool moreen. It is in all colorings and strip ed effect, and does not require interim ings of canvas or haircloth. This means a saving in providing materials, in the cost of making and in the weight of the finished gown. It has good rustic, be- sides FLORETTE.
