Paris, May 21.-Harry Thimball
Thaw, young American millionaire
from Pittsburg, gave a dinner to TWEEN.
ty.five persons ON Saturday night that
cost $4,000.
Americans of humble means who
contemplate visiting the Exposition
must not believe that all dinners serv-

book
While the dinner cost $4,000. the
major part of the money was not spent
for food. Of course the food was the
best that money would buy in Paris.
Each course was prepared by diff
ferent cook, and the man who pre-
pared the ducks got $50 for his SER
vice. for that is his regular fee. He
is the best duck cook in the world,
and rides in carriage and employs
valet

But it was not the things to eat and
drink that made the spectacular Mr..
Thaw's dinner cost $4,000. For in
stance Sousa's entire band was en-
gagged. When it wasn't playing, there
was gypsy band and a famous Paris
ian string orchestra to make music.
The souvenirs, gold and diamond
tiifies for each guest, from the best
| jeweler in the Rue de la Paix, were
very expensive. Each waiter--there
was one for each guest-got tip
| of $40 and the head waiter solaced
himself with a tip of $50.
So that the bill of $4,000 was not so-
extortionate after all-for a Pittsburg
millionaire who is Seeing life" and

| father with both hands.
Mr.. Thaw is very we'll known in
| New York, where he often delighted

smoke of burning money.

In fact it matters not with what

should be a ProtectiOnist in one re-
spect. That is to say you shouid
protect yourselves against loss by
the destruction of your pronerty by

protect your families against the loss
of their support by the death of the
person who produces that support
the husband the father. This latter
protection can be obtained practical

sible, and in fact compulsory, for the
life insurance company to safely in
vest the funds paid into their hands,
and, after term of years, return
same with profits to policy holders,
