But this il not all The other day an
invitation came for my two Rrunddaughters,
who are ~ and 20 years old. to join country
house party OF sixteen young people, the
hostess Of which was Il very lively young
matron Of about IS. Upon inquiry it turned
out that not one older woman had been
asked, whereupon the invitation was de-
clined by command OF my daughter.
At a host OF young peoples theatre par
ties TINS winter the sole chaperon mas been
a matron Of perhaps 20. and there have been
many dinners Of the same description. Inc

A COLLEGE FRIEND OF WILLIAM.
Intercollegiate Graft Successfully Worked

Intercollegiate Graft successfully Worked
OF Late In This CITY.
, The maid in a house not far from the
Grand Central Station brought up card to
her mistress the other day. The name
was quite unknown to the mistress.
The gentleman SAYS that he is a great
friend OF Mr.. William at college, and says he
promised TO come to see you, the maid
explained.
The woman had son in the senior class
at Williams and although she had never.
heard him speak of any young man of the
name on the card, IL seemed possible that he
might have such friend 1t seemed more
than possible when she met the well dressed
chap that arose 10 meet her He telked
of his friendship with her son, said he was in
n class below his, and then arose to take his
leave.
Il must get the 2l5 train, he said, Nfor
nv ticket Is for that train -
Then he looked at his watch. II was too
late TO cntch the train and he told the sym
pathetic matron who had been entertaining
him and listening to appropriately hatterinR
accounts OF what her boy was doing In col
lege Then in the most gentlemanly FASH
ion in the world, and with the utmost deli
oaoy. he managed TO convey the fact that he
was quite penniless, and. having missed
the train, for which he had Il return tlcKeV,
had no means of getting back TO college
that night.
OF course. the mother would not sec any
friend Of her son in such n predicament.
She Immediately produced $40 and offered
il to the young man. Gratefully promising
TO return il to William at college his friend
retired. never TO be heard Of again.
The slick young man who IL playing this
trick has found many victims. and so far has
escaped all efforts 10 catch him III some
woman whom he tried to vctimize should
call the police while he is in her house he
might be caught. Otherwise there ls little
chance of getting hold of him.
He goes only to the houses ~ the wealthy
and naturally, avoids house he has once
been in The women with whom he has
to deal are not Of kind accustomed 10 call
in the aid of the police. So the young
man who invented this new game oil graft
has in all probability escaped.
He acquired his knowledge Of New York
college men from tho various college cat
alogues and the police think that he may
once have been n college man himself as he
has a Rentlemanly manner and speaks with
n degree of culture which may impose on
the women that he calls on

quite sure that their growing immunity
can be attributed to the general popularity
OF morning bath-. cold showers, fresh air

Not 40 many years ago women were
always catching cold. Now men take
cold more frequently than women, although
they dress more warmly for cold weather.
Walking along Fifth avenue or Broad

worn open over silk or lace waists, and the

Men with heavy overooats buttoned
over their chests look. upon them with
amazement but the women do not catch
cold, and are aware OF the fact that they
do not have to bundle up as in the past
women have become accustomed to
the morning tub, with cold showers and
alcohol rubs for their threats and chests.
They learn TO harden the chest by frequent
spongiugs OF alcohol or witch hazel, and,
eithsr in the lace bodice or the low necked
dinner gown. they are impervious to tho
attacks of cold.
women have learned TO ventilate their
homes and sleeping rooms, and you will
notice that headaches are no longer so
