Holiday Buying.

Shop early. The woman who shoos
early is in better temper to make judi
cious selections. has more time to devote
to making purchases. a less rumpled as
sortment of goods to choose from. and
above all is apt to receive more effective
and considerate service from the clerks
Women are prone to making eariy-shop-
ping resolutions and are also prone to
breaking them. Really, the results might
be worth the effort of good trial.
In addition to the utilitarian feature
Of early shopping. there is the human nj
tartan feature. A New York woman has
formulated the following rules for Christ
mas shopping
''First-Do as much as possible of your
shopping before December l.
"Second-Have it all done one week be-
fore Christmas.
'Third-ShoD early in the day.
'Fourth-Carry home as many parcels
possible.
"Fifth-Do not ask to have parcels de-
livered on the day of purchase.
''Sixth-Do not ask to have articles sent
home on approval
''Seventh-DO not shop during lunch
hours. thus shortening the hour for the
clerks
There is SO much common sense in these
rules that all women might adopt them
with profit to themselves. the merchants
and the clerks

der there was no money for theater tick
ets. The people must deny themselves
many things until brighter days. The
avrrage spellbinder. who asserts every
thing and proves nothing. could take that
text and from carts tail set a gaping
crowd wild.
Now as is well known. the trouble in
the theatrical world springs from the
same cause as that in the financial world.
Managers, Ike the bankers. have over
extended" themselves. Too many of them
have gona into wildcat enterprises. and

and consequent dishandment of poor
attractions Patrons of the theater have
refused to support such appeals to them
But the good plays are prosperng. There
is as much money as ever for those who
bid for patronage with meritorious offer
ings. Managers of good Judgment and
prudent methods, Ike bankers of that
quality, are not complaining, except as
to the harm done business by their reck-
less breth zen.
Wildcat bankers abuse the President
because he called attention to reprehen-
sibie business practices. They saddle him
with the blame for the loss of public con-
fidence. In like manner, and with as little
Justice, wildcat managers are trying to
saddle some of the responsibility for their
discontinue on the reviewers Of the
drama for the daily press. The light
turned on has shown the tawdriness and
unWorthiness of the poor plays, and
forced them off the stage. But whose
properly is the blame? The reviewers.

all theatrical offerings. or those managers
who. either through poor Judgment or ex-
cessive cupidity. have abused the trust
and patience of the public and been ex-

Comparatively new"
Looking Forward.

The prevailing policy in this country
has been from the beginning to live for
the present without any regard for the
future. The public lands are lavishly
bestowed. fraudulently or legally, and
without any consideration of the present
or future value to the public. Forests are
destroyed without any provision for re-
neWal and with no care for the needs of
the next generation. Coal lands owned
by the government are given over to pri-
vate or corporate interests without regard
to the impositions that may be made by
future coal monopoiies. In Oklahoma tn !.
people had foresight to reserve from
homestead occupation a large tract of
public lands which will be used for the
future support of public education. But
such Instances Of foresight are exceeding
~ rare. Indeed, President Roosevelt has
been violently assailed in the west for set
ting aside public reservations of forest
lands out of the reach of the lumber
trust, and in the interest of that trust
Congress tied his hands by restrictive
laws.

say that meat diet can with the best re-
suits be abandoned. What the qualified
men do say is that far less nitrogenous
food than Is usually consumed In Ameri-
ca suffices for nutrition and is better for
general health, showing its benefit in
longevity. Science will not say that slow
and thorough mastication will stop dis
ease or perfect digestion, but 1t Is per-
emptory i'll advising a mastieation as thor
ough as the proper appetite for food per-

mouth may cause dislike or indifference.

upon enjoyment. Human beings can live

Big Gun ContestP

The suggestion is made that there be
held an international gunnery shoot. The
International rife shoot Is now time
honored institution. though perhaps not
developed to its highest point of interest
ana benefit. The International rife con-
test is not SO international in character as
1t might be made, and not SO much SO as
a contest iii gunnery would probably be.
A real international military rife contest
should be between bodies of soidiery for
example. the nation entering the contest
to be represented by a regular regiment
and that regiment not to be- loaded with
the best shots from other regiments but
10 go against the butts with the sam
men who would follow it's colors to the
field. One would get better line on mill
tary shooting in this way than by exam
lining the remarkable scores made by a
few phenomenal shots.
In the matter of au international gun

pers Weekly as follows:

tween The FIVE leading naval powers, or

Slaughter and "Sport, ="

Kaiser William has been doing a little
hunting lately during his stay in England
and the report now comes that the other
day. during q pheasant drive at Windsor
ne basged no less than 100 birds. Inas-
much as he shoots with only one hand
with guns of especially light weight manu-
factured for him. this record Is regarded
as phenomenal But over in Germany
such dongs are better understood and
create less interest. 1t is the usual thing
for the kaiser to bring in the biggest bag
| of the day. Indeed, no one who is aware
of the etiquette of the field dares to ap-
proach his record. Once in a while some
stranger to the unwritten law OF the
| coverts blunders ahead and kills more
birds than the kaiser and then he finds
that he has become persona non grata.
| He is never again included in the list Of
guests at a royal shoot Inasmuch as the
kaiser shoots on the preserves of his
titled subjects quite as much as on his
own 1t Is incumbent upon his hosts to
keep a close watch upon the performances
of their other guests. 1t is good form to
miss, bad form to hit too often. There
are whispers, too of keepers doing things
to the returns that would make Tam
many election clerk green with envy.
Seven hundred pheasants in one day!
That is called sport over in England. A
crowd of men advance in a long line
across wide estate. which has been
carefully preserved from poachers for
months and where the birds have been
fed and tended and almost tanned. Beat
ers go through the bushes ahead of the
gunnerS and scare IN the creatures Then
the slaughter begins. He is a bad shot
who cannot bring down several dozen
during the morning
An American guest at one of these
Wholesale blood-lettings inconsiderately
asked what was done with the victims,
which sometimes in the course Of single
day number several thousand. He was
| puzzled by the strained silence that fol-
lowed. and later pursued the inquiry with
one of the beaters, who informed him
that the birds were shipped to the Lon
don market the returns from which
formed a considerable part of the IN
come of the noble family. This, indeed, is
generally accept; as steady source of
revenue. but no one is ever rude as to
hint that there is anything inconsistent
in the fact of an aristocrat selling game
to the London market, and at the same
time refusing to countenance the social
aspirations of those who are in trade"
Probably King Edward finds some other
way to dispose of the birds he and his
guests slay. But whatever the economic
aspect of the hunting the thought Of SO
much life-taking Is certainly unpleasant.
