Lieutenant General Scott. who secured per-
mission 10 devote 10 the purpose the sum Of
$11S.0O0, a portion of the tribute which he
levied upon the City OF Mexico at the close
of the Mexican war. To this nucleus Con-
gress added $4,000, and there was created
the 50O-acre park with its ten miles OF
beautiful driveways and handsome build
ings, which now constitute one of the show
places of the seat OF government. This
home. which has 1, 400 inmates. is entirely
self-sustaining. To its maintenance each
soldier in the regular army contributes
1919 cents per month from his pay. and 10
this fund is added all fines imposed. by
court-martial
LARGE UNDERTAKING.
The administration OF a large soldiers
home is much more of an undertaking than
most persons might imagine. At the
tional home at Dayton, o.. for instance.
there is a dining room where 5000 are
commodated at one time. In the immense
kitchens the preparation OF dinner for
1900 veterans requires the use OF 1000
pounds of beef, 200 pounds of bread. 30
pounds of sugar, 30 bushels OF potatoes, 100
gallons of coffee and 900 pies. At the post
office at this institution 10000 letters are
mailed each year and about an equal num-
Der are received, and in the laundry a
weekly wash of $1,000 pieces is cleanses.
AT all soldiers homes large share OF the
work. such as cooking. waiting upon table.
laundry operations, etc, Is performed by
the men themselves. who take turns in do
ing duty in this manner.
Everything possible is done 10 render the
inmates of a soldiers home contented and
happy. Not only does Uncle Sam provide
food and raiment, but amusement as well.
There is excellent library at each home.
and theatrical and other entertainments
are given at frequent intervals. A band is
regularly on duty at each institution. and
the veterans have an opportunity 10 SO
through daily drills. guard mount. dress
parade, salutes TO the colors and other fea-
lures of life at a regular military post
There is a constant change OF personnel
at big home. There is a steady stream
of new admissions and readmissions. and
inmates are constantly going out on ~
loughs and discharges At some of HE
homes many a one-fourth OF the vet
Grams enrolled are what are known as
mild weather absentees:" that Is they
absent on furlough during the summer
months in order TO earn wages by light en-
ployment. At Christmas, too, all who have
relatives friends likely TO be absent
visiting, and il is not uncommon at such
times 10 find fully one-fifth OF the home

The Stocking Purse
Now Used by Women

The present season and musical comedy
has brought back TO earth and given TO
women the odd stocking purse. which was a
fashion fad in the days of Napoleon, but
which, since the days of the empire has
been forgotten, while women have found
other means of slowing away their money
and their jewelry. we'll as their powder
rags, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. When
Anna Held comes 10 the Illinois as Mile.
Napoleon she will have a number of chorus
girls who dare to restore TO their stockings
TIE odd purse, and who dare 10 show the
men and women of the audience how the
continuance works. While every woman
knows that the women of Chicago carry
in their hosiery about as much money as
the savings banks do in their vaults, few
of them. III any. have ever seen a stocking
purse. The purse is recommended for sew
eral reasons, the principal one being that il
can easily be reached. and that IL is always
there, and that tiierc is danger of the
money sliding down far as ones shoe
tops At any rate, the fad is catching on.
Designed at first simply an excuse for
the chorus CIR! TO do a new turn, il has
been taken up by fashion-and there you
are.

have been made as an incentive. For in
stance. TO secure the Western branch
which was opened up in 1SS6. the city of
LeaVenwoTth, Kan, gave Gao acres of land
and the sum Of $4,000 for its embellish-

estate OF LOO acres, was originally sum-
mer resort known as TOgus Spring. Ii

purchased by the government for $4,000, in
Guiding hotel capable OF accommodating
300 guests.
The Southern branch. at Hampton. Va,
faces directly upon Hampton Roads, the
finest natural harbor in the world. The
grounds are a masterpiece of landscape
gardening, more than $50 flower beds con-
tributing to their attractiveness. The main
building was before the a fashionable
seminary for girls, and was purchased by
the government in 1870. When the Southern
home was opened less than half a hundred
old soldiers enrolled, but the magnificent
climate soon attracted ailing veterans from
other sections of the country, and in ten
years there were upward of 1850 inmates.
The Northwestern branch, near Milwau-
kee is situated in a park of 440 acres the
purchase price of which was 100000. and
the central branch at Dayton, O., is set
down in a beautiful eXpanse of 627 acres in
the list of national soldiers homes the
Battle Mountain Santarium at Hot
Springs, s. D., was established only a year
or two ago. The government paid half a
million dollars for the site, and the State
of South Dakota gave a perpetual lease TO
two springs.
In the various branches of the National
Soldiers Home there have been cared for
since the civil war a total of more than
120 600 volunteer veterans Every State in
the Union has been represented in this
army. Ohio leading with a total of 1900
