This covers her winter season in New York. She at Aiken, s. C.; goes to London for the opening of the season there, during which time she will exactly repeat the New York experience. She will spend July motoring through France and Italy, and returns to Paris during the latter part of August, where she puts herself in the hands of dressmakers for eight weeks. varied by dinners at the smart restaurants and weekend par ties at French chateaux. This omits the Newport season, which she will take up the following year, as it is in- convenient to sandwich it in every year. Her house will remain open, however. under the care of ten serv- ants, in case she should wish to run over at the end of the London season for five weeks before going to Paris.
 If she decides on this she will go to ball or dinner every night, or give one.

Penny Problem

A man in Chicago has 500 cents which he can't spend, can't sell. cant melt up, can't give away. and which he can't even keep. At least if he does any of these things he is break ing the law, and he hasn't figured out the answer yet. He is proprIetor of number of penny-in- the slot ma chimes. and the 500 pennies are the mutilated coin that the machines have accepted in six months without his consent He can't sell them for funk copper, because they are bad money: he can't pass them off for pennies for the reason that they are bad pennies and might cause him to spend some time in jail, and if he keeps them he Is liable for carrying bad money. This, states a local exchange. was the opin- ion of the United States district at- torney, and the assistant United States attorney general tried his hand at the puzzle without better results. Tech nieally. the owner of the pennies. one Smith. violates the law whatever he does with them.

We are far in the lead as a nation of coffee drinkers. About a billion pounds of the berry were consumed in the United States last year. We are as good market fer it as all the other countries of the globe con- bined. Our per capita consumption last year was 1864 pounds Some un- thinking persons. remarks an eastern exchange, have accepted these DOT tentous figures as evidence that we are getting further and further away from alcoholic drinks as a beverage. But this is an error More coffee drinking is no indication of less alco- holic drinking Coffee does not dis place alcohol any more than it dis places tobacco. The truth is that the three increase together The more coffee drinking. the more tobacco using, and the more of both, the more drinking of alcohol.
