Poor American Woman.

DR.. Emil Reich Australian scholar
and critic, has been lecturing in Eng
land and telling his fellow Europeans
how unatractive the American women
are. He has TO be scientific ami judi
cial in the matter, so he tells all a)lIt
the commercial necessities which have
made her what she is, and admits that
she cannot help it, but deplores the dis
agreeable result.
The chief element in the absence of
charm lies, he tells US in the American
woman's Indifference and even repug-
nance TO men. She sees so much of
this particular two legged animal that
she cares nothing whatever about him.
Educated with men, associated every
where with them, by the time they are
30 women are simply made weary by
the presence of the masculine portion
of mankind. She has lost all romance
out of life, and at the same time all
her attractiveness. 1t is the common
judgment in Europe, this man solemn
ly afIirms, that American women are
altogether unlovely.
The women of this country can we'll
get on without the admiration of learn
ed doctors from abroad. So long as
they suit their own husbands, broth
ers, lovers and friends they will not
worry about foreign applause.

One of the roads which reports the
largest gross earnings, and net as WE'LL

Throughout the year the earnings of
the Santa Fe have been particularly
gratifying. The tremendous increase
Ia gross earnings clearly Incl that
the company has enjoyed much larg-

previous twelve months. The cores
p)nding large gains in the net earnings

Cos, Of Material.

To our request Of the Crescent Lum-
Der Co, Of Deming to furnish us the
cost Of material for an ordinary four
room house we received the following:
I'm reply to your recent request for
prices covering the cost OF lumber, nails
and building material sufficient TO build
four room cottage, and inasmlch IS
the price greatly depends upon the style,
finish and grade Of material used, we
can only estimate for an primary four
room house, counting the expense OF
lumber, doors, shingles, sash, paper,
nails and paint for two coat outside
work. In fact all material necessary
to finish up the house would be in the
neighborhood Of $500. This includes all
expense except the carpenters and the
cost OF hauling the lumber etc, should
the building be situated out of town.
But in order to simplify the matter we
are quoting our prices on such building
material as we carry in stock and
would suggest that you submit your
plans to a builder who can easily reck.
on the cost Of such house as you wish
to build.
