There is no Disgusting the fact-the
modern woman is tall, and the little
woman of former days has completely
faded out of sight You have only to
cast your eye around at any public
gathering and you cannot fail to per
ceive that the average height Of the
modern maid is somewhere about five
feet ten inches.
Take any assembly, such as a theater,
and you cannot fail to perceive the
enormous altitude which has been at

ment, says Ladys Pictorial
II woman was tall in early Victorian
days. she used to try to conceal her
height; she would wear a little fiat bon
net and a shawl. and take the arm OF
the man she was walking with, stoop-
ing II she were taller than he.
II was the fashion In those days for
the women to be dropping and die-awag,
Just as it was correct later on for them
to be tiny and frivolous.
What has become Of the little woman
who used to shake her ringlets and say
that she couldn't understand figures?
What has become Of the child-wife,
with her poodle and her guitar. and her
total inability to grasp the rudiments

dearment in the days Of Dickens and

PAINTING BY THE ACRE.
Much Paint Required in Covering the
sides of the Big Ocean
Liners.

Only those who are directly concerned
in the operation Of line Of steamships
have any idea CT the enormous total
cost OF operation Of even a single ship,
and Of the extraordinary variety Of the
sources from which expense bills are
made up or course, the main items of
expense are perfectly familiar even to
the person who takes but a languid in
terest in steamship; we all know that
the coal bin is a big one. and that on
a great passenger steamer the single
item of wages runs up TO very large fig
ures, while, OF course, the bill for pro-
visions and general stores is also a con-
siderable item, says the ScientihcAmer
lean. Outside OF these. however, there
are other less-consfdered sources of ex-
pence. one Of which is the painting Of
shin. This single item in the mainte-
nance OF the fleet Of one corporation
runs annually into hundreds Of thou
sands of dollars. SO great is the size of
modern transatlantic liner that the
total area TO be covered every time she
is painted runs up into the acres Thus
we learn that to entirely paint the top
sides OF big steamship from water line
to rail calls for enough paint to cover
about an acre Of surface. About as
much more Is required to paint the up
per works. while the big smokestacks
call for over half an acre OF paint, and
IN the case Of the German steamships
with four smokestacks the total area
must be nearer three-quarters Of an
acre. Since the great ships Of the first
class companies are painted every voy-
age. the calculation shows that to keep
the 100 or so vessels OF the Interna-
tionai Mercantile Marine company IN
frst-class shape requires the painting
OF some 2.250 acres each year at cost
Of between one-quarter and one-half
million Of dollars. A curious fact In this
connection. which Is a direct compli-
ment to our climate on this side Of the
water. is that on account Of the larger
number Of fine days on the eastern sea-
board OF the United States. the painting
OF the vessels is almost invariably done
on this side Of the water. even In cases
where the headquarters Of the company
are In some English or continental port
