OF hauling military equipment and
soldiers OF the regular army. Al
most all roads in the west have an
agreement OF this nature with the
government. So IL the government

soldiers travel over several different

This Is the military rate. 1t IL given

MATINEE LUNCHEON BASKETS
New Idea That Threatens 90 DO Away
with the Cnndy-Eating Habit
in Thenters.

The matinee girl and the matinee
woman are not supposed to be com
pletely equipped unless they carry
into the theater a box of candy.
But all that's likely to be changed
now, says a Chicago exchange.
Instead of chocolate creams and
caramels the matinee girl who knows
what is right is carrying nowadays
matinee lunch basket. The bas-
kets, to be in accord with the pre-
scribed style, ought to be pretty lit
tie affairs.
Some of them are made of delicate
sweet grass; others of fine roots or
birch bark or closely woven Irvine.
Inside they are lined with waxed pa
per.
The contents may be almost any
thing that suits the matinee girls
tooth and taste-little finger sand
witches, waters, sweet cakes, stuffed
prunes, sailed nuts, and so on. In
stead of a finger bowl the basket
contains a moist little sponge. Jap
anese paper napkins complete the
outfit.
For the drinkables the matinee girl
win have to depend on the theater's
water carriers, until some ingenious
person invents a theater canteen

After buying the cards he takes
them to his home where his wife

in the sun to dry. When they are dry
he takes them around to the saloons
on the East side and disposes Of them
at prices ranging from four cents TO
nine cents a pack.
In this way he earns from a dollar
and half to three dollars a day. lie

Very frequently he gets hold Of
cards in good condition which have
been discarded by poker players who
change packs for luck. These cards,
Of course, bring higher prices than the

THE ENGLISH woMAN's FOOT.
Takes a shoe of Generous Proper
lions because OF Her Sensible
Preference for Comfort.

A sprightly controversy has been GO
ing on for some time in the English
newspapers relative to the somewhat
intimate subject Of the young English
woman's foot. or, rather, her shoe,
says a shoe journal. The modern Eng
lish girl is tall-tall in a sense and To
a degree that the Gibson cartoon OF
the stately American girl do not even
adumbrate. In the aristocratic set
more often than not. she towers over
the heads of foreign gentlemen. Long
generations of descent from tall ia
theirs and mothers and vigorous years
of outdoor exercise have made her
what she is-very occasionally a six
footer, and with hands and feet in due
proportion.
The note Of alarm has at last been
sounded 1t is held that "the daugh.
tiers Of Anak" are exercising too free.
w, If they would wear the dainty shoes
that are women's traditional adorn-
ment. While the answer is made that
the apparent size Of the English girls
foot is due TO her sensible prefer
ence for loose, easy shoes, il is ad-
mittedly an incomplete explanation.
One reason for the growing popular
ity of the American shoe in London, is
that il looks neater and trimmer and
decidedly smaller than the English
shoe of the same size.

"Punch, here Punch" Mildred calls,
and the bantam trots up to her from
a neighbours flower garden or from
behind the barn, followed by Judy"
He flies up and alights on Mildred's
outstretched hand at her commands.
"Now crow" she says, and away the
bantam goes, straining and twisting
his little body, splitting the air with
his diminutive NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS."
"Crow once more" and again he lets
out his voice, while Judy" looks up
admiringly.
"Now wen have a boxing match"
says Mildred, as she places punch" in
position at his corner of an impro-
vised ring. "Punch's" fayorite an

feet. punch" never tires Of this game,
and he plays it with the utmost good
