COST OF BEING IN STYLE.
Practically No Limit to the Expen-
diture of Fashionable WON
en- for Dress.

The sums squandered on clothes
by the very rich are astonishing,
says Rene Bache, in the Philadel-
phia Saturday Evening Post. 1t
is true that even the multi-mil-
lionaire, though his apparel comes
to pretty penny, is obliged to be
severely simple in his own attire,
but in the costuming of his wife
and daughters he has an opportu-
nifty to open wide his overlooking
purse. For the cost of women's
raiment has practically no limit,
and a lady of highest fashion can
hardly be comfortable on a dress
allowance of less than $4,000 a
year. If her husband is liberal he
may give her $4,000 without fear
that he is encouraging her to in
dulge an undue extravaganza.
In order to be comfortable
woman of fashion ought to have
at least GO frocks year. Five of
these should be tailor-made suits
for street wear. There should be
ID evening gowns, ten dining
gowns and six little dresses" as
they are called, of soft woods and
silks, for informal afternoons. To
these should be added ID summer
dresses of fine French muslins,
with much lace and embroidery
and half a dozen tailor-made linen
suits, also for warm weather.
The street suits cost from 1926
TO $3.50 apiece. They are severely
plain, and that is why they are so
expensive, the glove-like fit being
all important. The finest tailor
ing is done on the simplest gowns,
and it is for this reason that the
linen suits above mentioned come
to S75 or 500 each. \ fashion

BUTTERFLIES FOR THE SICK
A Woman's Novel Innovation on the
Plan of Sending Flowers
to Hospitals.

Many people have sent flowers
from their summer gardens to the
sick in the hospitals, but perhaps
only one person has had the idea
of sending a box of butterflies
along with the flowers. The wom
an who had the idea tells enthu-
siastically of how it came to her,
says the New York Sun.

hospital box on a day when my

Examples of glazing ignorance Of
food values may well be culled from
the notes of these experts who have
visited the poor of the different cities
In the slums of Chicago, states John
Elfreth Watkins, writing in the Reader
Magazine, it was found that woman
whose husband was out of work and
whose family was living on a few
cents day bought lettuce, food so
innutritious that, at least when out Of
season and high in price, it is lux
ury even for the rich This woman
sacrificed the inexpensive but nutri-
tious classes of foods, such as found
in the list given above, for leaves con-
timing over 80 per cent. of water and
Is per cent of refuse. 1t has been
truthfully said that a man would soon
starve to death on a diet of lettuce
alone. Pitiable improvidence was found
in the New York slums. A Waterman
was feeding his family at the rate OF
Ia cents per person day-all that he
could afford; yet his wife bought eX-
pensive cuts of beef instead of the
equally nutritious cuts of lower price
also large quantities Of butter whole
value might have been invested in
dried beans and more bread. She also
wasted money on soda crackers and
jumbles costing two or three times as
much as bread and containing no more
nutrition. 1t was estimated that his
wife might have obtained about eight
times as much nutrition for her money
had she substituted dried peas fol
green peas. Another large saving
would have been the substitution O
fresh for condensed milk.

MOST EXPENSIVE WHISKY.
Remains Of a Barrel Thirty Five
Years Old Worth Nearly
$500 a Gallon.

A man in Cincinnati bought barrel
of whisky IS years ago and kept it in a
tbird-story dryroom, well ventilated,
and in all the intervening period used
only one pint for testing. There remain
to-day, says the New York Press, only
one and four-ffths gallons of the orig
inal "a, the rest being lost through evap~
grafton.
A celebrated physician says: One
small drink of whisky contains more
electricity and reju"enating properties
than any medicine that can be pre-
scribed."
AS to quality connoisseurs agree that
this whisky, considering its pure distil-
lation and great age, is the finest in the
world, and that no king or emperor, the
Rothschilds, Morgans Vanderbilts, AS
tors, Carnegies, Belts or Clarks, with
all their enormous wealth placing at
their will all the luxuries of the world,
can command such. A careful estimate
of the cost of storage and computation
of interest and insurance for IS years
prove the cost of this whisky at the pres
ent time to be S4S9.01 gallon.

Doing Without Sleep.

One Of the bugaboos Of mundrnnt ex-
istence is the early to bed and enrly
to rise" adage, which has troubled the
consciences of so many millions Of
people. That tantalizing old jingle
about early rising making a man heal
thy wealthy and wise is responsible
for more misery in the world than all
the other good behavior maxims and
rules for success put together; but its
is gratifying to observe, says the Roch-
ester IN. W Post Express, that the
present generation is not so complais-
ant in obeying the rule as the good,
but misguided, men and women Of
yesterday. The early-rising fad is not
much in vogue now in the cities, and
1t will not be many years before the
benefcent reform will take root in the
country. The cause of this change, Of
course, is in the change from early
to late hours in thickly settled locali-
Sies. The urban population occupies
its evenings in pleasurable pursuits
and retires at an hour that is not in
harmony with the advice that was in
culcated daily in the minds of our
grandmothers and grandfathers. An
other great change is the increase OF
occupations that require night work,
for in every large city there are thous-
ands of men and women who work at
night and sleep during the day. The
theater is also en- important factor in
keeping people awake until midnight.
In olden times there were not so many
amusements and distractions in the
daily life, and after our grandparents
finished their days work there was
nothing better to do than go to bed.
in these days Of rushing business and
varied pleasures, however, humanity
just begins to enjoy itself when dark
ness falls from the wing of night,
when the pale blue rays of the cleo
tries drill holes in the ebon atmos-
phere, and the noises of the downtown
thoroughfares fall on the ear

PLAYGROUND OF A NATION
Where Nature Has Been Exceedingly
Generous in the Bestowal
of Her Favors.

What is there anywhere that can be
even compared with the marvels of the
heart of the playground, the Yellow
stone National park? Here in one
place are terraces surprising those of
New Zealand, geysers far more won
derful than those of Iceland, water
falls more stupendous than those of
Cumberland or Killarney, hot springs
of greater heat and mineral springs
more marked than those of the Au-
vergne, pools of incompatible beauty,
with bear, deer, elk, buffalo and eagles
to give life to the scene, the whole set
among canyons of glowing tints and
crags of beetling height, while all the
region is easily accessible on splendid
government-buil roads, policed by
United States troops. This is the play
ground par excellence. Some day, says
the World To-Day, the weary ones OF
France and Germany will fall into line
and spend their summers in the Rock
les. To the uninitiated this will all
sound like characteristic American
brag; to the initiated, as weak un'
reinstatement of the facts.

CEMETERY FOR ANIMALS.
Large Plots of Ground in Some Euro
pean Cities Set Apart for
This Purpose.

In spite of much agitation upon the
subject at various times, lovers of ami
mails have never succeeded in estab-
fishing in this country cemetery as
elaborate as those in several European
capitals, says the New York Herald
The largest and most beautiful ami
NAL cemetery is La Necropole Zoolo-
gique; in Paris, or rather in the suburb
of Asnieres. Here large plot of
ground is laid out for the interment
of dogs and other animals, and here
are erected monuments in every way
as handsome as those over the graves
of human beings in other cities of the
dead
Some famous dogs have sculptures to
mark their memories, and dog kennels
in marble are favorte vaults. For two
dollars and half grave is leased for
three years and this fee includes the
services of a dog undertaken, uni
formed and mounted on a tricycle.. For
$500 a grave may be leased in perptu-
ity, and between these extremes may
be found prices to suit all purposes.
The cemetery occupies an entire
island in the Seine, and, apart from the
rental of graves, the company owning
the property makes a handsome profit
out of the sale of admission tickets to
visitors

THE AUSTRALIAN BUFFALO.
Big Game That Gives the Hunter
Plenty of Hard Work and Some
times q Bad Fall.

In the wilds of northern Australia
are herds of buffalo which are hunted
and killed in great numbers, as were
the bison on the American plains a
third of century ago. An Australian
hunter says: "Only on one occasion
did we have buffalo turn on us, but
before he came too close bullet re-
minded him of an engagement else
where. The hunters and the natives
with them have at times experienced
some bad falls with the buffalo, and
in some instances they have been
gored. Some miraculous escapes have
occurred. When the hunters have
been down and the beasts have been
trying to get at them with their horns
they have crept out and catching hold
of the horns have vaulted over the
backs of the animals and escaped. The
possibility of this can be realized when
one understands the size of some of
the horns. have pair just six feet
across, and have seen pair measure
nine feet
Zone Of the shooters, Paddy Cahill,
had a splendidly trained horse which
he used in his hunting; in fact, the
horse pretty well did the work. As
soon as a mob of buffalo were sighted
the horse, as matter of course, gal
loped alongside while his master at
tended to his particular part of the
game. Forty-fve in one day is, think
sufficient proof that rider and horse

NOVEL USES FOR GLASS.
May Be Utilized as Building Ma.
terial and Paving Blocks in
the Near Future.

1t is to be hoped there is nothing
more than coincidence in the simulta-
neous invention of glass houses by an
lowan and of glass paving bricks by
a Partisan, says the Chicago Tribune,
for II the two inventions should come
in contact the architect might have to
begin over again, The patentee of the
glass house proposes to attach brackets
to the beams of the floors Of the steel
framework of his structure to support
two walls of opalescent wire glass, the
insulating dead air in the 12-inch space
between the two walls preventing the
loss of heat in winter and its entrance
in summer. 1t is claimed that build
ings constructed in this manner will
be more free from drafts than under
present conditions, that they can be
satisfactorily heated with a quarter
less fuel than buildings Of brick con-
struction, and that the absence of win
dows shuts out dust, smoke odors and
insects, and allows of any arrange
ment Of the floor plan desired. The
French inventor in question aims in
cheapening paving bricks, utilizing for
his invention old glass obtained from
broken bottles, window panes, etc., as

being tested in Paris are laid on a
foundation of concrete, with a wooden
template one-ffth of an inch thick be.
tween the bricks, Up to the present
the new material does not appear tc
wear as well as stone, but it is the be-
lief of the city officials that the thin.
ness of the bricks now laid makes then
too fragile. They suggest making then
four inches thick and laying them OF
foundation Of sand, as stone blocks
are laid, since, on the present bed
they have proved too noisy.

JOBS THAT LAST FOR LIFE.
Employees Of the English Government
Pass from Salary List to
Pension Roll.

"Once a civil servant always civil
servant" appears to be the motto of
the English civil service, for unless
one proves dishonest or an extraordi-
narily poor workman, states the New
York Herald, he is retained in service
until the age limit is reached and the
salary list is exchanged for the pension
roll.
Unlike the civil service in the United
States, there is no strong partisanship;
appointees hold their positions, no
matter which party may be in power.
The pay is not large, even in view OF
the small cost Of living in England
Fifteen dollars is about the limit OF
weekly payment in the post Office de-
partment, though some of the execu-
tive positions pay as high as $4,000 g
year. The excise department is q ia.
yored branch, the pay starting at $3.50
year. This is raised by a yearly in
crease Of $25 until the pay reaches $500
and after year is jumped to $575
From there on the pay jumps rapidly
to 81 $50 yearly, and if the officer is for
tunate in at last arriving at the dig
nifty of collector he draws 81 900 yearly
Parliamentary clerkships run from
$500 to $4,000 year, and the navy de-
partment will run clerk up to $4,000
if he reaches the Importance Of feet

In spite Of the small salaries the
places are eagerly sought, since il
means a life pSsition, with pension
for ones declining years.
