ARDMoRE AND NEW YEAR.


The New Year dawned with any
thing but pleasant weather. The skies
were leaden and cold wind made
It disagreeable but despite this fact
everyone seemed TO be in cheerful
mood and the usual Merry New
Years. greetings were observed
Throughout Ardmore the day was gen
orally observed. Many stores kept open
until noon and afterwards gave their
employees a half holiday. PuDlic Off
cials also observed the day. All banks
were closed, as was the postonce Lit.
tie business was transacted today. In
the homes New Years dinners were
the rula.
This New Year Is a reminder that
Ardmore is progressing and devel-
oping in a manner that is most graf
flying to the citizens fthe town.
within the past year much has been
accomplished in commercial way
and 1906 gives promise of even great
er things for Ardmore TO the casual
observer It must be admitted that
property values have materially in.
creased during the year just closed.
This was illustrated in the recent lot
sale held in the city when lots were
eagerly sought at figures that demon
strated the fact that the citizens had
the utmost confidence in the future
Of the town. II must also De admit.
ted that many lots were bought as a
matter of speculation, and this being
true It shows that the average citizen
shows no temerity in making invest
ments and that he believes that he
will receive returns according to the
wisdom applied
II Is singular that with the rapi
Increase in property values there has
not been the slightest indication of a
boom. The growth of Ardmore has
been steady, but sure. II is advancing

isfactory to the merchants This, in
spite of the fact that crops were not
altogether a success.
The unparalleled growth Of Ard
more and the development Of the man
ufacturing. jobbing and agricultural
interests during the past few years
reflects credit. but II will be nothing
in comparison with the future growth
of the town whe' ae land titles in the
country are settled.
II would be amazing TO the average
citizen to learn the number of re-
quests ana inquiries that the CONNER
cial club mas received during the past
year relative to the town and country.
The club has been instrumental in
bringing quite a number of people to
Ardmore and this has been done in a
quiet way. II is realized that the com
ing year offers a great opportunity
for the commercial club to accomplish
results and II Is safe to state thai
the officers and directors will watch
Ardmore's interests zealously.
The Ardmoreite predicts that dur
ing this year there will be "A tide of
immigration to this section unequal
cd that the business interests of Ard
more will enjoy the most prosperous
year in the history of the town. Every
one should pull for and work for n
greater Ardmorc. In this way the
town will be vastly benefited. 1t costs
nothing to boost the town, but II
means much.

good many country visitors are
disappointed when they learn the sober
truth that New York has no clubs COM
posed exclusively of millionaires. 1t
is harder still to make country folk
believe that hundreds of men join So
called swell clubs in large part from
motives Of economy
There are scarcely three clubs in the
city that do not include considerable
number of poor men in their member
ship. The average income Of the
whole membership of the ten best
known clubs in the city is probably
nearer $4,000 year than $4,000 a year,
and almost every one of those clubs
includes some scores of men with in
comes we'll below $4,000. and good
many with incomes we'll below $1,000
There is a real democracy of New
York club life. Youths in their early
twenties and just beginning their ca
reers on very moderate salaries frequent
truly palatial clubhouses, breakfast in
rooms such as few princes ever use
and lounge before freplaces that are
to be matched only in the most splen-
did buildings of Europe
The poor man in the palatial club
is just as we'll treated as the rich.
The servants look as solicitously to his
wants and the chef ordinarily cooks
his dinner with the same care that he
bestows upon that of the richest men,
Der.
The poor mans credit at the club
is as good as the rich mans and both
are impartially posted when they neglect
to pay their bills in good season. There
are a good many instances also in
which the monthly bills of the poor
man are higher than those of his rich
fellow members, for the frequenters
of clubs are apt to be the poorer rather
than the richer members.
Many a man of small means regards
his membership in a first rate club in
the light of a profitable investment

Conditions That Make Il Possible to Indulge in
Luxuries and at the Same Time TO
Save Money.

lounging rooms save him annually
from $500 to 81 900 a year in rent, ae-
cording to the location in which he has
his modest lodgings. After that he
saves a fair percentage on everything
he eats and drinks at the club.
His simple breakfast costs him per-
haps 10 per cent less than it would cost
at any restaurant he would be likely
to frequent and the same is true of his
dinners. If he takes three-fourths OF
his meals at the club he saves annually
about 800 in tips.
If he drinks wine at dinner he saves
from 10 to % per cent. upon every bot
tie If he permits himself the luxury
of a cab he saves a handsome per-
centage by ordering it through the
club and avoids all possibility of
row with the cabby over the amount
of the fare. Many a man writes all
his letters of a social character ana
some of a business character at the
club and thus saves from SIS to $40
year in stationery.
He need buy no new books, nor need
he subscribe to a library for there is
the club library free for his use. He
never need buy a periodical or even
a newspaper, save when he travels. for
all that he reads are freely supplied by
the club. And the enjoyment of all
these things imposes upon him no con-
siderable expenditure for extravaganza
luxuries. He is sure, especially in the
college clubs, to find plenty of men
with like modest incomes and simple
tastes as himself, and he may sit for
hours with cronies over the cafe table
without spending money that he can
not afford, and without giving offence
to the servants of the house committee.
Most club members probably do not
keep a debit and credit account With
the club. but the man of modest means
and moderate habits would find the
examination of such an account a mat
ter of great satisfaction. Such a man,
paying $3.50 as an entrance fee and S7S
year in dues, is likely to find him
self at the end of twenty years a long
way ahead of the game The club
in twenty years has cost him rather
less than 50 ,Oe0 for entrance fees, dues
and contributions to the Christmas
box and his savings by reason of the
club have been from $4,000 to $4,000

reducer has been tested with wonder
full success. her friends declare. From
q stout matron she has transformed
herself into the figure of a girl, but
only after years of patient effort and
grim determination
When Miss Thresa Fair first came TO
New York as the bride of Hermann
Oelrichs, in the early nineties. she was
reed of slenderness, but the luXur-
ious life she led soon began to mani
fest itself in the form of increasing
weight Her figure gradually lost its
graceful proportions.
Five years ago she weighed I'D
pounds. She was SO stout that it was
gossip that her diamond dog
collar was enlarged by a panel of dla-
monds in order to fit her growing
throat
Suddenly Mrs Oelrichs announced
that she would reduce her figure and
began with an all meat cure. She ate
meat only. It was not a success and
she went abroad to try the steam baths
of Bad Nauheim The German cure
had only a heeting effect, and where
as she lost a few pounds, she gained
them again during a gay season at
Newport
She tried several other cures, but
hey failed to reduce her weight. Then
she changed to the fish and plum diet
md to vigorous walking and air, which
lad the best effect of all. She has now
to get her weight down TO
30 pounds.

Two bowls of lemonade some damn

on a table that stretched across the
drawing room. In the center of the
table as the piece de resistance was a

with sugar.

who asked those who still looked hun

cream. If they said yes he would
disappear into hallway. to return
with some ice cream in saucer, piled
up with the spoon and not in a mold.
So greatly mas wealth increased dur
ing the past few years and SO lavish
dress and entertaining. that it was
natural there should be a revulsion
against extravaganza and a desire to
go to the opposite direction. The wo
man who is able to play the simple
life as applied to entertaining is GER
tain to make an impression which
champagne and terrapin would never
accomplish now.
One must, of course, be rich to be
able to afford to give ones guests poor
food but with a position and bank ac-
count beyond question, the simple life
is the last cry of smartness.
