CHEAP LAR ERA
 HAS NOT ARRIVED Lower Prices for Automobiles
 Will Be Exception MANY WILL ADVANCE PRICE Better Material and Better Workman ship Are Being Put Into the Ma
 chimes of Higher Grade
 This Year.

From the New York Herald.
 An interesting controversy has arisen in the automobile trade as to the possibil- ity of constructing reliable motor ve- hicle of the runabout type to sell for $500 or less Figures have been furnished by some of the largest manufacturers to prove the futility of cheap car and to demonstrate the need of an increase in selling prices instead of decrease. This has elicited the information that ten or more representative American manufac- turers are listing their 1906 product at slightly higher prices than were asked for their machines in 1905
 One of the most successful automobile manufacturers in this country, who was in New York a few days ago, gave sev- eral reasons why prices will advance in- stead of decline.
 Prices for reliable. well built automo- piles must necessarily increase" said he. ''The prices of material are increasing all along the line and have steadily in- creased. The cars are being made more complete in every respect. The public demands more and the manufacturer is giving more They are giving more room, more size, more speed, more power, more efficiency, more luxury and more com- fort. All this is at the cost of better and more material.
 Looking at the American industry you will note that the number of cylinders has steadily increased. With the excep- tion of the Franklin, which started with four cylinders, the prevailing style in this country only few years ago was the single cylinder and only a year ago four cylinders became general. You will note that several six cylinder cars are being brought out here, and that in Europe nearly all the prominent makers are pro- ducing six cylinder cars.
 "Then there is the question of work manship. The work is being done better and finer every day. You can see that this is bound to be the result The pub lie will not continue to buy cars for one years use. Made as some of the have been they were not only out of date, but out of use at the end of one season. Bet ter material and better workmanship have changed this, and this better mate rial and better workmanship cost more money.
 "Another thing which is going to add to the cost is that of special machinery. The manufacturer will endeavor to bring down his costs by special machinery and he will succeed to some extent. But spe- cial machinery is very costly and goes out of date quickly. As l said, cars are more complete. Where formerly we sent barely nothing with a car we now equiI them complete with side lights, real oil light, acetylene generator and acety' lene headlights
 Most of the manufacturers are trying to build cars which will give them a good reputation and more business in the flu ture. If you will compare the prices oi the standard makes of American cars oi this year with last years prices you will find an increase in almost every case There will be no reduction to these prices next year. In some cases there will be an increase.

Baggags In Guatemala.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
 'The railroads of the United States are very particular as to what they will &C., cept for transportation as baggage" re- marked Karl E. Kneiss, "hut down in Guatemala the railroads are not as par tcular.
 ..While I was down there some time ago I made a list of different articles of mer- ehandise that I saw checked as baggage on the Western Guatemala at the town of Retalhuleiu Here 1t is: One cage of chickens, a basket of ducks, bundle of dried fish, crate of live iguanas. varioE empty baskets, crate of fighting cocks, baskets of eggs. baskets Of fruit silver in sacks, a bundle of soiled clothes that some woman was taking down to the river to wash, furniture, hides in pack ages, smoked crabs that smelled to the next station. baskets of bread, small alligator and two live pigs.
 "All of that miscellaneous merchandise and farm product was handled in one car along with the personal baggage Of passengers. as result of which custom a traveller soon finds himself saturated with the complex odors of the country"

HIGH STAKES IN POKER.
Held Four Kings Against Friend Who
 Was Coaching Him.

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
 "Only once in my life did I play poker for high stakes" remarked the Louisian- ian. "One night I was invited ito join a select party at table stakes. I demurred, on the ground that I was not the equal, scientifically-for I consider poker a scl- ence-of the others who were to sit at the board. There were six gentlemen in the party, including myself. had played with one of the number before but the limit was nominal. He volunteered to give me some advice. He said he had mo- ticed my playing, and said that where was lame was in the exercising of judg- ment; that I trailed along when l had nothing to go on. He told me that II would adhere to the universal rule ob- served by those who followed the game either as a diversion or as a profession l would break even in the long run. That was the worst that l could do On the other hand, l stood as good chance as the next one to make a neat haul once Tn a while He was anxious that l sit In with the party l should be patient, he said. and not come in until I had some thing Then I should whoop them up. He was so persistent that finally consented telephoning my wife that probably would be a trifie late in getting home that night, owing to a business engagement
 "The game progressed merruy, but the outlook was anything but favorable to me. I played conservatiyely, and at mid night was not more than fifty to the bad I was discouraged and was on the point of quitting when I picked up three kings and opened the pot. and all came in ex- cept one man. held up kicker to create the impression that I was playing two pairs 1 spiked the fourth king. I checked. My next-door neighbor pushed in stack. This was raised before I was reached. l met the boost and made it little strong er The hoisting went on until my friend who had given me the good advice and myself were left to fight 1t out between ourselves. When we quit betting there was $500 in the middle of the table. Did I call him? Not on your tintype. He did the calling. When I,laid out the four em- perors he turned as pale as ghost. For the moment he was speeches.. Then he turned on me and abused me like a pick pocket I demanded an apology. and he threatened to whip me. 1 took in the money and quit the game. Of course, the next 1~-- my friend was sorry for hav- ing lost his head, and he called on me at my office and apologized High-stake poker makesbad blood.

NOVEL PHOTOGRAPH FRAMES.
All Sorts of Materials Used In Seasons
 Designs.

There Is no difficulty this season in getting a ready-made photograph frame to fit any size or shape of picture. Never has a large or more varied stock been placed on the market, says an exchange.
 French gilt takes the lead for the novel, ties It comes in frosted, highly burn ished or old gold finish. Heavily enamel ed in an all over design in many bright ly contrasting colors, it is strixingly ef- fectiye. Enameled frames are new. The design is either set in background or gilt or on a background of some one tint, like green. A row of sparkling brillants rims the picture.
 Exaggerated long ovals are among the popular shapes. Such frames fashioned of gilt flowers are dainty. A single row of cherry blossoms or wild roses, as rule. make the encircling wreath.
 Frames made in plain flat mat of gilt coming close to picture edge are favor ites especially for pictures of miniature nortait dimensions The new fad for framed miniatures of fancy subjects has stocked counters with frames made ex- pressly for miniatures.
 All sizes of cket-shaped frames come either with standard or a device TOT hanging, which may be simple ring or d most elaborately tied Louis XIV DOW.
 Background racks for these hanging miniature frames can be found In the show cases.
 French gilt lends itself delightfully."- to combination with mother or pearl WHICH is one of the new touches.
 Very itching are the moire mats, em- broidered in ribbon work or covered with lace heavily spangled. Spangles are used a great deal in frame making. Lines or gold spangles down a background or heavy black moire make noticeable frame The silk is stretched over slight ly cushioned mat.
 Great frames in silver, wrought In sweeping design In engraved or raiseo work command large prices. Among the smeller silver frames are some Tn me lattice work over a bright red leather background Leather frames come In all the exquisite qualities and colors or eather that are seen made up into wrist bag and purse. The highly polished sur faces are, perhaps, in the lead, ana these are often adorned with tooling In gilt. Appliqued gilt or silver ornaments make another form of leather beautifer.
 Florentines frames, with thin, ricn, heavy scrolling of gilt and their com naratively small picture openings. are noticeable, as are also the marvelously carved white ivory frames from Japan.
 Frames devised into automobile designs oro among the novelties. Silver, gilt, or nickel-plate is used for these machine" frones which are shaped so that the 1,rhts of the "bubble" come as orna- ments at the base of the pictures.
 Tarqe mats come with picture openings of dieferent sizes and shapes on the sa ,,a surface. They are a great convent ence if one wishes to group pictures.
