to this is the knowledge that there can be
no possibility of the caller receiving an In
vitation for any cabinet fesuvity unless
already eligible. There have been cabi-
net women who cleared up social oblfga-
tons by one or two big teas each winter,
With apecial reference to persons whose
calls they were not able to return. These
events have almost entirely passed from
the winters calendar, and many reasons,
probably some OF them good ones, could
be given why this reciprocity OF good feel
ing isvheld more lightly than heretofore.
In other words, the duties of q cabinet
hostess under the modern regime are pre-
cisefy what she chooses to make them.
The biggest items the cabinet of1cer must
face in the yearly expenditure of his sal
airy are house rent for the family and
gowns, and. maybe. jewels for his women
folks. His Inequalities are no greater and
no less than any other individual who
moves in the same company. He can still
ride to and from his office in govern
ment carriage, and his wife and children
can use the vehicle the rest OF the day,
with public opinion and human nature very
justly approving one course as well as the
other.

The Journal is reliably informed,
says the Hannibal Journal, that negc-
tlatiOns are pending for the purchase
Of the Perry branch Of the Short Line

will be conSumated The parties
negotiating for the purchase are the

an i~nterurban railroad through Mon
roe, Audrain, and Rails counties. II
rs Understood that this company has
been given permission 10 run is car
over the Short Line from Perry 70
New London a distance Of about
twenty two miles, and that the line
will be extended from New London 70
Hannibal.
Although the abnye Is only a well
authenticated rumor, Jet II is be-
lieved tina II will be cOnsumated aAd
that Hannibal will eventually have
one u the beat l~nterurDan lines Of any
city in the state outside Of ST. Louis
and Kansas CITY. There Is hardly any
question but that the MeKinley line
10 Illinois will be extended 70 Hanni
