HAS HOUSE THAT
CAN BE REMODELED
Special cable to The Herald.

Special Gable to The Herald.
LONDON, July 13-To change her
house as she changes her dr SIS or her
mind is one of the advantages the
modern woman can now enjoy.
This does not imply the old recrea-
ton of changing the position of the
furniture. 1t is possible to remodel the
interior of a residence, to pick up the
kitchen and put the drawing room in
its place, without interfering with the
main structure.
The Quicker" house is the name of
this adaptable building, which opens
up such enchanting possibilities to the
feminine community.
THE entire house is made in inter-
changeable units" a representative
of the firm explained. "a wall section
can be removed and replaced by one
carrying a window or a door, while
the roof can be heightened and rooms
added or enlarged to suit the require
ments of the owner.
THE houses are made of selected
durable woods, steel, asbestos and
fireproofing preparations. They can
be erected without skilled labor by
simply interlocking and boiling the
compartment parts.
1.-The roof sections are covered with
steel laid on asbestos and interlock
with overlapping waterproof joints.
The floors are made of removable sec
lions, and, simply by unbolting, the
whole of the house can be taken to
pieces without removing a single spike,
nail or wood screw
IAN eight-roomed house can be taken
down, removed and regretted within
two days"
A traveller through beautiful rustic
scenery need not bewail his lot because
he lives in town. He can select a
small site of land, wire for Quicker
house and in a couple of days pic
turesque bungalow of five rooms is
awaiting occupation.
To envy the design of a neighbor S
house will no longer be necessary. 1t
is possible to rearrange a residence
to tally exactly with the coveted
bungalow next door,
An unexpected party of friends
write that they are coming to stay
! the following week. The hostess will
review the situation with calmness as
she can easily add couple of spare
rooms and enlarge her dining room.

a "doss' for pence and from this
haven they go out each morning to
their days work"

BabyIike Cries from Mail Box Came

Joke

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, July 13.-The rush Of early
dawn was gradually settling over the restless
Tenderloin when the nighthawk cabbies, near
Forty-second street and Sixth avenue, became
conscious that pantive walls of distress were
filling the air. The sound was located as COM
ing from mail box on the corner.
The walls finally became SO loud that the
cabbies called policeman.
The officer couldn't open the box, however,
so he telephoned to station H, on Madison ave-
nue., and told them baby or something that
could make as much noise had taken possession
of the big box on his beat, and he couldn'
make an arrest until some opened it.
William l.. Quinlan, a clerk, was sent with
a key and opened the box Out jumped an
unkempt and widly-excited Maltese cat, which
blinked and winked under the electric light,
and then began rubbing against the police
mans leg.
Attached to the feline's neck was tag with
the following:
my name is Dolly Grey. l am the mother
of five kittens and had a good home until
hard times reduced me to poverty, and caused
me to desert my little ones. 1 will guarantee
to keep house clean from mice for good
home. Where do I stand?

The cat was taken to the station and Will
be adopted as a mascot unless some one
claims it. The police think some hilarious
theater party kidnapped it from restaurant
and dropped it in the box as practical joke.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, July 13.-This has been a
| big week so tally for the Americans
in London. In addition to the two great
functions on July 4, there were in
Vulnerable smart dinner receptions
where well-known Americans were
either hosts or guests.
| The departure of Mrs. Whitelaw
Reid, owing to the illness of her faith
er, brought the season of elaborate en-
tertainments at Dorchester house pre-
| maturely to a close, as several other
| important affairs which had been
planned were obliged to be Cancelled
Mrs. Reid carries home the satisfac-
ton that from every point of view, in
regalness, magnificence and social i'm
portance she eclipsed not only the rec
ord of every previous matron of the
American embassy in London, but for
the first time made the foreign en-
bassies which previously had been
noted for the elaborateness of their
affairs become stars of smaller mag
nitude.
EcIipses the White House
The general social tone of the Reds
affairs have been the highest ever
struck by an American ambassador
and the courts of King Edward him
self couldn't have carried them out
with greater eclat and perfection in
even the smallest social details. The
magnificence of the Reds affairs have
left a permanent impression upon the
minds of English societiers, whilst
Americans who thronged Dorchester
house on July were amazed at the
glories of the Park lane palace, the
magnificence of the whole entertain
ment leading them to remark how in
ferior both in point of beauty and
elaborateness was the White House in
Washington and the functions therein.
A. G. Vanderbilt Is Sarcastic
A. G. Vanderbilt, who sails for home
on Thursday after q successful season
both at the horse shows and socially,
was asked what truth there was in
the published story that he is return
ing to participate in a distribution of
the Vanderbilt millions at Newport in
August.
Il read story to that effect in an
English newspaper with great inter-
est. In fact 1 reread it, as it con-
tanned information concerning both
myself and my family of which. 1 was
entirely ignorant. I have come to the
conclusion that whenever L desire to
learn anything about either my family
or myself I must read the newspapers
1 constantly find things in the news
papers about myself of which l hadn't
the faintest knowledge.
This article, telling about a sort of
picnic, whereat the Vanderbilt millions
are to be distributed is news to me,
but it must be so, because the news
papers say it is. Take, for instance,
the detail that the trustees have de-
cided OF give me 1 forget how many
millions in August, when 1 am not
entitled to them until much later.
You have no idea how delighted I was
to learn this 1t will be awfully pleas
ant to return to the United States and
receive all that unexpected money, and
1 am thankful the newspapers have so
nicely arranged this affair for me-

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, July 1S.-The evils of the Eng

hence by the sad fate of the colonial premiers,
who during the first week of the recent stay in
London conscientiously strove to consume the
succession of feasts offered them. ]. L.
Maxse, editor of National Review, writes in
dicating the banquet of today "a public
nuisance, that lasts too long incites too many
toasts, costs too much and produces super
huous dull oratory."
The charge is sustained every count. There
are 5000 public banquets each year in Lon
don involving about $1,000 speeches. A
proposition is now made that the banquet be
shorter and simpler the speeches subjected to

ceedings finished by 10 o'clock.

TARIFF COSTS LIVES

The Kansas City Star, discussing
the tariff, makes this unusual but not !
illogical argument:
The protective tariff is responsible |
for many railroad accidents II the |
manufacture of steel rails were sub
jected to competition, each manufac-
turer would strive to command trade
by the excellence of his products. But
the steel trust has eliminated domes-
tic competition and the tariff prevents
foreign competition. There is temp
taton, therefore, to put on the market
inferior quality because, having the
field all to itself, the trust knows that
the railroads must take it's rails, good
Or bad. And bad rails have been the
cause of many railway accidc2.r.
Not only that; the railroads O. =
country are obliged to pay about
SO 1-3 per cent more for the trusts
rails than Canadian roads pay for the
same products. This excess cost has
a direct bearing on constructive and
maintenance policies. 1t offers an in
ducement to use lighter rails - new
construction and to use old rails long
er than it is safe to retain them
The operations of the steel trust are
often held up as an example of tariff
injustice. 1t should not be possible
for American steel makers to sell
their products in foreign lands cheap
err than at home, and any law that
makes it possible is bad law and
should be repealed. The enormous
profits of the steel trust are made at
the expense of the whole American
people. They may not pay with their
lives exactly, but they do pay with
their money, for the railroads must
base their freight and passenger
charges on the cost of rails and equip
ment But the steel tariff is not the
only one that should be modified or
repealed altogether.
There is the watch trust that sells
watches abroad, thanks to the benefi-
cent operations of the tarN, more
cheaply than at home. The sewing
machine trust does the same thing.
And even so gentle, kind and consider
ate a corporation as the Standard Oil
monopoly sells certain grades of oil
abroad more cheaply than at home.

tariff revision, not only in the Demo
cratic, but in the Republican party as
the times. The paramount issue in
