A Bachelor Girls September.
HOW SIX SOCIETY GIRLS OF PAR IS ARE TO SPEND THE AUTUMN
MONTH AND HOW 1T COULD BE SPENT HERE IN
THE SAM f WAY.

Paris Aug. SIN Paris the American
girl abroad can do pretty much as she
pleases, so delightfully."- unconventional.
Is the life of a foreigner, specially if sh,.
is an artist or a girl bachelor Of any per-
suas-on. But sometimes it is the New
York girl of money who does the convcn-
tiona in Paris. Her object may be health,
it may be pleasure, or it may be economy,
or, as in the case of the happy SIX Of
whom I am writing you, a combination of
all these.
The plans which have been made by
six New York society bellies for the com.
ing month of September sounded simply
delightful when they were enumerated to
me by one of the enthusiastic numbe".
AL of them are bachelor girls ranging
anywhere from "a to 80, and each knows
what 1t is to Eve winter and winter IN q
firing whirl of society life.
The summers have been equally gay.
too,with hardly a days rest W lawn
parties and yachting parties and the usu-
al summer functions. OF course thai
meant coming back to New York in the
fall, not a bit rested, to enter again into
q busy winter of society life. So in Sep
tember they are going to try an expert
ment that promises to work beautifully.
Near one of the quiet little villages of
France they have hired an old chateau,
already furnished, and there they are go
ing to live Ike simple country folk, going
to bed with the chickens and rising with
the lark.
For a month they are going to give
themselves up to self-improvement, both
physical and mental. Each girl is to
study her particular needs and the month
will be spent catering to these needs sin
cerely.
"Of course" said my informant, 1--WE
all expect to be good 5latured about re-
ceiving n giving suggestions among
ourselves.
There are Nan and Ruth, you know,
III are simply worn to skeletons by this
winters ga.eties. They are going to have
the two biggest, sunniest rooms in the
chateau. There beds will be rolled up to
the windows and there they are going to
lie and take the rest cure.
with all the fresh milk they can drink
and the country butter n vegetab les,
they will come back to New York in the
fail entirely rejuvenated.
1--WE other four" she said, "are getting
too stout, SO instead of dieting and TAX
ting obesity pills we are going to live the
most active outdoor lives.

every day, and Elsie, who is enthusiastic
over the physical culture movement is
going to call us together every morning
for a-half hours exercise"
I asked If they We're sure that they
would not be bored by his uneventful,
quiet sort of existence; n when the let
tiers came from the other girl friends tell
ing of :heir gay times, and of prince
Charming' wouldn't there be a feeling of
discomfort among them.
"Oh, no. this young woman answered.
THAT question has been brought up in
our meetings and thoroughly discussed.
"All of US prefer a month of absolute
freedom, Il as for the Prince Charm
ing, he never, or seldom frequents hi
fashionable watering places. OF course
we know that our younger sisters enjoy
themselves hugely flying around with
the college fellow, and any other man
Who is amiable enough to go in for dane
ing and driving and tennis in a whole
souled fashion.
But when a woman is quite along in
her twenties those men fail to interest
her. The manageable men are the bust
ness men who seldom find time to leave
their offices for two or three months Of
society life at the springs. We meet those
men at the winter functions.
"Of course" this young woman went
on to explain, there is an aesthetic side
to our plans which we all appreciate in
living near to nature and all that, but
still it is the practical side that appeals
to us most"
I said, laugh:ngly, "Aren't you going to
take a complexion specialist along, for
you know every woman who goes into a
sort Of retreat these days is expected to
change her skin?'
well, indeed, we are going to give our
skins especial care" she answered in all
earnestness, "for we consider it one of
our first duties to look as well as we can.
Only, Of course, we expect to work Won
ders with our compilations with baths
and massage and diet, with regular exer-
else and plenty Of sleep.
"AI :he money we can spend on our
wardrobes, which is no small item, we
can spend on our next winter gowns.
Even counting the salary of our ore
maid Of ali work and the house rent,
the cost of our establishment for the
month will hardly exceed $780,"

THE GREAT HOPE DIAMOND.

Lord Francis Hopes recent effort to Sc.
cure legal authority for the sale of the
famous Hope blue diamond has caused
a copious flow of gossip. He failed, as
erybo is now aware, for entails on
precious heirlooms of this kind are not
easily set aside in English courts. The
jewel has just been officially valued at
$4,000 pounds, though till now it was sup
posed to be worth very much more, as no
doubt it is.
A blue diamond is of EXTREMIST rarity
1t even transcends that of something else,
which poor Thomas Hood described to
us as 1.-The rarity of Christian charity
under the sum- This important feature
of the Hope estate, says a writer in COL
lier's Weekly, weighs A carats n a
half. The normal hue of all crystalized
carbon is, of course, white, but, among
the Russian crown jewels, there is q
red diamond, of vast worth.
Recently Sir Edward Arnold has told
us that he possesses a blood-red pearl,
bought from a fisherman in Japan. who
was using the awabei shell, to which it Is
permanently attached, as a drinking cup.
1t is very pleasant to w these de-
lightful freaks of mineralogy, but to wear
them has one severe drawback. Nobody
but the almost clairvoyant connoisseur
would dream of guessing what they real
ly are. Wear, for instance, a red pearl as
a scarf pin, and who would give 1t credit
for being anything but a sa~nguinetinted
n polished bit of inferior stone? In the
same sink a priceless red diamond into a
gold ring. and who would fancy it other
than a ruby, or, perhaps even, a garnet.
These captivating eccentricities of ma
ture are all very we'll if viewed in tina
abinets of museums and explained by a.
polite cicerone; but let the wealthiest of
the duchesses appear at a ball with the
Hope blue diamond sparkling from her
throat. and who, unless it's actuality were
known, would think it a gem of greater
account than a remarkable sapphire or
amethyst?
Some Englishman once offered to make
a wager that he could stand on London
Bridge from morning till night. with a
tray of pure gold rings. crying at inter-
walls. Gold rings, a penny apiece" and
that not a single man, woman or child
could be induced to purchase one Of
them. The wager, as l have always un.
derstood, was not accepted.

Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-08-19

The picture of a tall dude in a dress
suit, drinking champagne from a quart
measure glass, is the attractive design
that calls attention to the announcement
Of the first American drink show, the
most novel exhibition that has yet been
conceived in the brain Of man.
During the past few years we have had
multitudes of food shows and health food
shows galore have tempted the masses to
abandon the health-wrecking foods Of
modern times in the enjoyment of medi-
Gated biscuits and life-prolonglng con-
coctions that are coffees in name only.
Blu a drink show, an exhibition in
which shall be grouped together all the
alcoholic beverages that the world pro-
ducss is a project that is at least unique
in its purpose. That it is to be a reality,
however, there is not the slightest doubt.
Already the Grand Central palace, in
New York city, has been enga ged for the
month Of December. the grand opening is
to be held on the 9Th, and every effort is
being made to assure .he success of the
exhibition as the most complete piano.
rama Of the drink producing facilities OF
this continent ever brought together in
one place. A more mighty blow to tenn >
perance was never projected, unless, as
has been suggested, the big fair should
turn out to be an excellent preparatory
step for good New Years resolutions.
While the primary idea Of the exposi-
ton is to enlighten the citizens of this
country in regard to the character Of the
beverages manufactured at home, foreign
exhibitors will not be excluded. On the
other hand, in fact, every effort is being
made to persuade them to send their
finest products to the exhibition, for the
managers are satisfied that the drinks
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-08-19

have paid duty to Uncle Sam. At the
drink show, however, all the DISCUSSES
will be removed, and the cordials will
stand for just what they are, American
products Of which no one need feel
ashamed. The consumer may sample
and be persuaded.
And so it will go. There will be ex-
hiblts of gin, of rum. of barrel and bot
tied goods of every description until the
visitor will be compelled to turn to the
long bars that are TO extend from one
end of the big halls to the other for re-
freshment. Here are to be gathered the
best bar chemists in the land, and it will
be their one object to please their patrons
There will be no hastily mixed drinks,
no slip-shod methods for prizes are to be
offered for the best mixer.
In order that the originality of these
chemists may be stimulated, other prizes
will be offered for the best invention in
the drink line, n it is safe to say that
the next guide for bartenders will con
tain several age of recipes that are
undreamed of today. Some of these con-
coctlons will undoubtedly be weird and
wonderful compositions, but the bold Wis
itor may sample them all if he chooses,
and is not afraid of the variegated Jag
that may be the result of his expert
ment.
The prizes, however, are not to be re-
stricted to exhibits of the finished prod
prising drinks. There are to be prizes to
competitors in fast bottling contests, and
this will embrace the bottling and stop
pering of beer. wine and cider by ma
chine and by hand. There will also be
contests in the bottling of mineral waters
and carbonated drinks, and prizes will
be awarded for skill shown as we'll as
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-08-19

, made in this country will not suffer by
comparison.
AT the same time the direct object of
the fair will not be forgotten and no OPP
portunity will be lost to impress upon the
minds and palates of the visitors that
there are liquors manufactured in this
country that will compare favorably with
the choicest beverages that European
skill has evSe concocted.
With the foreign products exposed by
the side of those Of home manufacture
an object lesson will be produced that
| will impress itself upon the minds of the
visitors, providing too many samples are
not given away, in which case, it is to
be feared, the object lessons would be-
come hopelessly e%ntangled in the brain
of the onsumer
From this brief description of the OBJ
jects Of the show, however, it can be seen
that there is a good solid motive behind
the apparently useless project, and that
instead Of being a revel unsurpassed since
the days Of Nero. the opportunity of a
lifetime for ~bibulously inclined individ-
uals and professional dipsomaniacs to
manipulate the eager elbow so frequently
that the parched throat will cease from
troubling. it will actually be an educa-
tional exhibit to enlighten the people as
to the extent Of an industry that has
come to be an important factor in the
business of this country.
First there will be the exhibit Of malt
liquors, and to this feature considerable
Of the show will necessarily be devoted.
Here will be shown the beers and ales,
with some of which the masses are al
ready familiar. and visitors will be asked
to note whether they are not as good in
every respect as the beers of Germany,
or the ales of England and Scotland.
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-08-19

The same course will be followed in re-
gard to other liquors. The manufac-
turers Of whisky will be out in force to
exploit the virtues of their wares and
those who make Irish and Scotch whisky
on this side of the ocean will have an
opportunity to bring them into COMPETE
tive relation with the products that have
: made these beverages famous wherever
liquors are consumed.
Another important feature of the fair
will be the wine and brandy exhibits. for
1t is in this manner hat the people of the
United States require the most instruc-
ton. While there are champagnes and
%clarets, sherries and ports and many
other wines, not to mention the brandies
made in this country that compare favor
ably with the goods that are imported
from Europe, the American nsume
has not yet learned to purchase.
To him the fact that they are cheaper
than the imported goods makes them I'M
desirable, and he will not drink American
wines If he has the money in his purse
to enable him to purchase those that have
been brought across the water. That
this is a mistake a multitude of American
VINE drinkers can attest, and there is no
doubt that many more will be converted
to a belief in the merit of our home prod
uct by this first great lesson in drink
ables.
A similar condition of affairs exists in
respect to the cordials. While there are
a few preparations that are not dupli-
Gated in this country there are but few.
and, in many instances, disguised by at
tractlve labels. they are made to do duty
as the genuine importation. This decep-
ton has been made necessary by the atti-
tude of American drinkers who have in
sisted upon being served with goods that
