MRS. rRYoN's BARGAIN.
How She Made IS to Save Toward a
SeaIskin Cape.

Mrs. Tryon was truly thrifty wife.
AS consequence she was bargain
hunter. She often bought little things
because they were cheap-not that she
particularly needed them. But she
would never acknowledge this.
Tryon was not at all surprised one
morning to find his breakfast standing
cold on the table and note from his
wife explaining that she had seen an
ad. in the paper that morning that
called her to one of the large depart
ment stores.
They're selling hats to-day at half
price, and that brown one I saw the
other day for SIS will be $3.50 this
morning if l can get there in time
the note went on.
BY the time Tryon had read the
note and finished his breakfast Mrs.
Tryon was in the heat of the scrim-
mage in the millinery department
down town. Although she succeeded
in getting there just as the doors were
opened, twenty other women We're
ahead of her and the scrimmage up
the stairs was as thrilling as basket
hall game. Each of the wise ones
grabbed a clerk at once, knowing that
was the quickest way to get waited
on. but Mrs. Tryon was one of those
,,,ho Ala not understand this. She
found herself running about looking
in vain for that brown hat she had set
her heart on and no one TO assist ner
She came across one creation that
she had looked at in the windows
few DAYS before, but had given up
because it was too expensive. Here
at least was an opportunity to see now
she would look in it. So she took on
her own and laid it ON the counter
while she walked eagerly to the glass
with the creation" in her hand
Now the hat that Mrs. Tryon mad
laid on the counter was dainty little
thing in white with pink flowers TASTE
fully trimmed on the brim. Mrs. Try
on had worn it so much that she was
thoroughly tired of it. Yet 1t was sui
a pretty hat.
After she had gazed longingly at her
reflection in the glass and had noted
with a sigh how well the expensive
hat became her. she returned to the
counter lust in time to see an eager
shopper trying on her hat.
Mrs Tryon was shocked bit at f1rst
and then she smiled at the SITUATION
Instead of demanding her property IN
hurry she watched the innocent
woman cooking her head before the
glass. eyeing herself from all possioie
sides and she was greatly amused at
the sight. She could not help but
acknowledge, however, that the wo-
man looked very well in the nat
when the shopper was nnaiiy
through and had laid the hat back on
the counter. after looking it over lot
nrice mark. Mrs. Tryon took her nat
from the counter. while the woman
hack was turned. and walked on down
the aisle.
She was carrying her hat IN her
hand and after bit she noticed that
several women looked at the hat and
then at her as she passed. But Mrs.
Trvon was looking for her brown bar
gain and paid little attention to them:
A little later a woman approached
and touched her on the arm
Are YOU going to take that nat
madam she inquired pointing TO
Mrs Tryon's hat she was still carry
ing in her hand
Il believe / may as we'll Mrs. Try-
on responded. ITS the one 1 wore
down here this morning"

Now, wait!
Of course you have heard that ex-
preston before, but it is probably a
good guess that you don't know yet
what the Orientals are, although you
did have chance one evening TO
view few of the visiting members
on the city's streets.
Well, they are many and various,
made up Of all nationalitles from
Japs to Javaites, from Esquimaux to
Patagonians- but, all of them, good
fellows.
There are lots Of funny fellows
among them. There are lots OF
peculiar fellows among them. Ihat
IS why we say, "Watch!"
Why, the performance OF the Oflen-
tails will beat the Mccarthy Wallace
fight to a custard.
The tattooed man who was here
with the first bunch and who did
such wild bowling when he ran down
the streets has been discovered MD
ING in the forests near Chinook, and
will he back on festival night. Tie
saws somebody in the crowd took him
for a fellow working at Main street
and Second avenue. He felt that ne
was a marked man and that was the
reason Of his precipitate flight to the
tall timber.
He is only one Of the curiosities the
Orientals carry with them. For IN
stance you will see a living skeleton
who is an expert at shaking the bones
and a. fat lady who is his wife ano
can't be shaken at all You will see
the railroad crew, too. The engineer

YOU are bound to see a cyclone, Du''
don't be alarmed-it will only be the
Human Cyclone who is always carried
along for the purpose Of churning the
milk from the sacred goat, which is
drawn by the bearded lady Alter

PRESIDENT AT COMFY ISLAND
Praises Institution There For Benefit
Of the Poor.

OYSTER Bay. n. Y, July 29.-Presl'
dent Roosevelt. after spending two
hours in an inspection of the Sea
Breeze Home, established on Coney
Island. New York bay. by the New
York association for the improvement
OF the condition Of the poor, returned
to Sycamore Hill last evening.
The president dictated a statement
concerning the trip and his reasons
for taking It. The statement follows:
81 went down to see the hospital for
children suffering from bone troubles
which is managed in conjunction with
the fresh air fund OF the Sew York
association for the improvement OF
the condition Of the poor. The hos
pital is at the Sea Breeze Home.
Coney Island. About ESQ children are
taken each week to the Sea Breeze
under the fresh air fund and over 5000
during the season.
THE hospital has room for only As
children. and there are more than
1000 cases of bone tuberculosis in the
tenement house district OF New York.
Now the trustees are trying to raise
a fund for a hospital which shall hold
400 patients. The fresh air fund peo-
pie are Obliged to refuse admission
to 1000 to 5000 applicants annually.
"a certain gentleman whom | know
to be a large giver to charities, but
who never allows his name to appear,
asked Jacob Riis to go to Sea Breeze
and investigate and report to him on
the facts. Mr. Riis investigated and
reported so strongly on the good be-
ing done, and that the need for addi'
tional facilities were so great. that
the man in question subscribed &c.
900 for charging the hospital and
pledged himself to give $1,000 annually
for 10 years for maintaining 1t. An
other man also subscribed $4,000. |
feel that there can be few more bene'
fcient works than that which is being
accomplished with the fresh air fund
and this seaside hospital for tenement
children suffering from bone tubercu.
