It would seem that New York had
been turned into big dressmaking
emporium and that one-half the popu-
lation was trying to get discount at
the shops for the other half
We wouldn't mind extending cour-
tesies even to these pretenders if they
didn't abuse their privileges SO. They
are not content to get their own
things at reduced price, but they
try to ring in all their relations and
passing acquaintances on the discount
system. Even dry goods stores have
a few rights, and we have to draw
the line somewhere. If we didn't, we

Spanish shell. >r
"Outside CT the actual personal ex-
perience of one of those who got hurt
a little," said the sailor, "the story Of
the battle of the bay is wearisomely
old to everybody. We went into the
bay, went down by the fac of the en-
envy, drawing their fire first at a dis
tance too great to hurt us. Then on
the first turn we cut in close, and let
loose broadsides as we went past. The
turns that we made are old stories
now. I was shell man of one OF the
six-inch rifles. This gun has shield
about the breech to protect the men
against small arms fire, but it was
practically useless against heavy ord
nance. The Baltimore was hit only
five times, but the Spanish shells went
over us, around and about us constant
ly. They made me nervous; they made.
everybody nervous at first, and there
was something funny in the way the
men would duck their heads when
something struck or there was an ex-
plosion. Ducking as means of safety
is not a success. Every time that we
fired, of course, definite aim was
taken at some ship, and our nervous
ness soon wore off in our anxiety to
see if we could follow the flight OF our
shells to their destination. We thought
we did a lot of damage with our rifle,
but where things We're flying so thick
it might have been some other fellows
shell that did that which we took
credit for.
1--WE had made the last loop and were
just getting beyond the front of the
enemy's line prior to going out to get
q bite of something to eat when some
thing happened. A short distance from
us on the deck was q box Of three
FOUNDER shells just sent up from way
down in the ammunition hold. A Span
ish shell went through the side Of the
Baltimore into an officers cabin,
knocked the beam upward and out
ward, took a glancing direction itself
and hit and exploded that ammunition
box. I have a sort Of dim recollec-
ton of 4 crash. All the rest l learned
subsequently. The chances are that
the seven OF us who were behind the
shield OF the six-inch rifle were
knocked out by pieces Of American am
| munition which the Spanish shell ex-
| ploded.
| Il didn't get any breakfast that
morning, any supper that night or any

unconscious for more than twenty-four
hours. A piece of a shell struck me
| squarely at the side Of the left eye,
another piece hit me in the chest, and
still another, a smaller bit, hit me in
the hand. I was in the hospital for 81
month. They thought 1 was going

story"
"What was the first thing you said
when you walked up after twenty
hours sleep?"
'The boys told me that opened my
eyes and said: Did we lick 'em?" re
piled Budinger.
Did we lick them? That is the first
thought of every true soldier ant
sailor. Did we lick them?

Y lives a handsome, clean-cut
young fellow, just Of age, and
whose name is Michael j. Budinger.
How many people are there to whom
the name means anything, OF who after
thought can remember having heard
it before? Budinger is a Chicago boy,
and he came back into the city the
other day after a little more than three
years absence, and outside OF the
members Of his family, the mother, the
father, the sisters and the brothers,
who live in the little home on the West
Side, no one met him with any great
amount Of acclaim. Yet this boy Bud
niger suffered more personally for his
country on a recent occasion than did
scores of men whose coming to Chi
cago would mean many winnings and
dinings and many interviews in the
daily press.

Novelties In Fans.

A novelty in fans, which has come
from Paris, is composed of bluejay
and white gull plumes with a pearl
mount. These feather fans are carried
out i'll all kinds Of plumage, pheasant,
peacock, jungle cock and merle,
mounted with pearl handles, inlaid
with gold. The gull fans, with pearl
mounts, are singularly pretty. An
other pretty novelty is made up of diff
ferent flowers, shaped out of stiffened
gauZe. These are painted in natural
hues, the centres glittering with
spangles. Poppies, pansies, carnations,
and Marguerites treated in this way
and mounted on carved ivory sticks
make an exceedingly effective fan.

Keeping Friends.

There Is nothing SO very difficult In
making friends; the trouble Is to keep
them. Pleasing manners and a taking
way will always win admirers, but a
lasting friendship must be built upon
a firmer foundation than transitory
smile, an hour Of high spirits or even
great physical beauty. OF course it Is
q pleasure TO feel that one Is favored
by some radically beautiful woman,
but unless there be genuine congenial-
fly between the two concerned the time
will come when passive lovelness will
cease to be attractive. To retain friend
ship one must be continually on the
watch and not let the familiarity that
comes from a lengthy knowledge of
the others life breed the contempt that
so often follows Il close intimacy.
To retain either friendship or love
the illusions must not be dispelled. Do
not, because you feel sure of your
ground. let the commonplace enter In
and monopollze the everyday affairs.
Let the halo of sentiment hover over
even the prosaic affairs Of daily life.
for, once dispelled. they can never form
again. and In the one glimpse of the
material side of the intimacy may be
utterly destroyed a relation at one
time thought to be eternal.

front of the hat that he sees. and he
doesn't know any better than to show
