eyes upon rare tapestries and beauti.

usually doomed t0 disappointment.
The present fad for having rooms so
bare and empty that they look al.
most unfurnished is a physical result
brought about by condition that
has manifested itself before In differ
cut forms. New Workers are nervous.
hurried and crowded: and FOR that
reason they have finally realized the
importance Of having their homes as
rcstful 600 effect and as homclikc as
'ssiblc. Less than decade ago tho
average New York minonalre's
home was an institution to look at

Club prourau1s.

The following IDEAS as expressed in
a talk from Mrs. Decker on club pro.
grams are Of especial interest Just at
this time when clubs are beginning to
consider their new year books.
The things in CLUB nfe that come I'm
particularly for Mrs. Decker's criti.
cism had chiefly TO DO with the super.
fetal crowded and irrelevant methods
Of study as evidenced by programs
that had come under her notice.
Five plays OF Shakespeare dis.

sonata sandwiched in between an
election Of officers and an art pro-
gram which read -omething like this:
Fra Angelica" Norwegian Art"

ending with a paper on "Ciylcs."
She thought that the makers Of such
programs could learn something Of the
external fitness of things from the
story Of a man with stereoptican pic.
lures who wanted musical accountant.

was Adam and Eve" the tune was
Just one Girl" That man had
enough Of the divine spark to make
the music at leas tcame in at the
right place.
Mrs Decker also regretted the fact
that some clubs still failed TO get
anything Of actual value out OF their
study. Somehow It failed to teach
them anything. They made no appli.
cation Of It. They might study Shake.
spearc a lifetime without arriving at
the soul Of the poet. She cited a
town Of nine Shakespeare clubs and
said It was the worst she ever saw in
the neglect Of civics. "The town was
very dirty and hideous. the children
ran the streets with unwashcd faces.
and saloons We're rampant. This was
not studying literature for the soul of
It. Unless literature is studied for
the benefit Of your neighbor. for the
uplift Of the community. unless good
comes Of It, it is not possible for you
TO get close to the soul OF the masters
Or catch any glimmering of their great
message to mankind"

POTENT LIQUOR is SAKE.
Lafcadio Hearn's Testimony az to
Strength of Japanese Wine.

There is no liquor in the world upon
which a man becomes so quickly in
toxicated as Japanese sake (rice
wine), and yet none of which the eff.
fects last so short a time. The in.
toxication Is pleasant as the effect of
opium or hasheesh. 1t is soft, pleas.
ant, luminous exhilaration, everything
becoming brighter. happier, lighter;
then you get very sleepy.
AT Japanese dinners 1t Is the rule to
become slightly exhilarated, but not to
drink enough to talk thickly or walk
crooked. The ability to drink at ban
quets requires practice-long practice.
There are banquets of many kinds,
and the man who is invited to one at
which extensive drinking may be ex-
pected is careful to start in upon an
empty or almost empty stomach. BY
not eating one can drink a good deal.
The cups are very small and of many
curious shapes. One may be expected
to empty So A quart of sake is good
deal; two quarts require iron nerves

there are wonderful drinkers. At a

pint of sake. | almost tainted at the

Feed tloos on Peas.

Cheap Irrigated Lands in the San
Luis Valley. Colorado, produce half
again as much hog feed as corn land,
one-fifth the labor Hogs sell at a
premium.
Prof. H. M. Cottrell, the Iowa expert,
says, Field Peas grow to perfection
there. and this feed produces gain at
least expense of anything grown In
Colorado. 1t costs from $3.50 to $500
an acre to raise peas, and an acre OF
peas produces 400 pounds of pork.
They are feeding $4,000 hogs at the
present time in the San Luis Valley,
and IL the farmers there will devote
one-fifth of the Valley to this industry,
they can turn out million head an
nually."
:. Good Hog Men are at premium in
the San Luis Valley and can get land
cheap and on easy terms. Renters,
this Is your chance. The men who
hurry will get the land. For further

MOUNTAIN GUIDES FAIL HrR.
Miss Peck VIII Make Another Attempt
Upon the Highest Andean Peak.

Miss Annie Peck, whose chief pleas.
ure is climbing mountains, has re-
turned to New York from Peru. beaten
In her attempt to climb the highest
of the Andes. beaten not by the noun
tain itself, but the worthlessness of
the men she employed as guides and
porters on the expedition. She is con-
WINGED that she would have reached
the summit but for the faults of her
men and says she Is going back with
Swiss mountain men to make another
attempt.
AS It was she reached height of
$4,000 feet. being then about 1000 feet
above the summit. This was at her
first attempt One OF her men deserted
and the rest got drunk on the alcohol
which was carried as fuel for cook
Ing. Besides they were all afraid of
the trip and especially as they ap-
preached the top of the mountain, of
which they have superstitious dread.
The second attempt was like the
first. except that the men gave out
sooner and so less progress was made
before the attempt had to be aband-
oned.
