Wives Of Money Monarchs Live More

Wives Of Money Monarchs Live More
Luxurioasly Than Queens.
Believe me-" said the woman who
thinks, I'm a little weary of rhapso-
dies over the supposedly superior IN
telligeDce of the women of bygone
days. Why don't those so generous Of
praise give modern women a chancef
1t is a sort Of mental fashion to as
sumo that George Eliot and George
Sand and Lady Mary Wortley Mon
tagu and Lady Blessington and others
Ike them were peculiar to themselves
and their periods; that no woman of
today can mold a candle to them in
any particular / wonder II that's
true. Seems to me there are dozens
Of women in America alone who are
every bit as clever as those heroines
Of the past. Lady Montagu wrote
delightful letters, but the art Of corre-
spondence has not passed from earth,
and surely the cultured woman Of to-
day can be as sprightly As for novel
lists and essayists, they flourish In
abundance In this enlightened age.
And when it comes to social knowl
edge almost any up to date hostess Is
far ahead of those of yore. Picture
the wife Of a twentieth century mil
lionaire obliged to live as queens did
In days long gone, and not SO very
long gone at that! Queen Caroline
and Queen Anne and Queen Henrietta
Of England had sad time Of 1t when
one compares their lot with that Of
today's rich women. Marie Antoinette
had no such luxuries as thousands of
wealthy matrons enjoy. Her best
state carriage was numbering affair
swung on great straps, that rumbled
over stones rougher than the rocky
road to Dublin If she had known the
solid comfort of really fine touring
car she would have been much hap
pier doubtless The state barge in
which she was rowed laboriously
along the Seine would seem a mere
scow alongside the swift motor boat
In which Nine. Millionaire dashes
about in these days of useful inven-
tons. Perhaps the society woman Of
today sighs for royalty, but If she had
to have 1t In the days when royalty
was real she wouldn't like 1t half as
much as being the wife of a money
monarch"

To Make For Christmas.

A contributor to one Of the home
magazines claims that she has found
an acceptable gift for man. II there
is anything in the idea it Is worth pass
ing along for suitable birthday and
Christmas gifts for men are so scarce
that one can't afford to disregard a
single possibility. This woman has
solved the problem Of Christmas gifts
for men by making the several mascu-
line members Of her family shaving
towels Of soft linen Don't let any one
confuse thfs with the combing towel
which a woman uses, for the object Of
the towel Is not to drape around the
shoulders while shaving, but rather to
use for the purpose for which q towel
was originally designed after the shaw.

BILLIKEN STATUES.
The Smiling God Of Things as They
Ought to Be.

The Smiling God Of Things as They
Ought to Be.
1t Is useless to try to explain the pop
ularity of Billiken. You can buy him
for from 25 cents to $40. He Is now on
the bookcase, over the desk, on the bu-
reau and in the travelling bag.
He rivals the popularity of the Jig
saw puzzle. When you are not patch
ing puzzles you are buying or borrow
ing a new Billiken. The statues are
now loaned for hundred years at q
penny a year. This Is the new fad
This includes Billiken's throne and
also the luck he brings.
The first pennies must be righteously
paid or your luck is gone. You mustn't
give Billiken to anybody. You must
loan him at interest. so all the girls
are doing this as the fad of the year.
If Billiken is sold 1t Is by hard
hearted, money grubbing shop. After
this Bililken is owned or loaned. Bill
ken, you know, Is the god of things as
they should be. He will help you to
see things right and give you the pow
er to do them.
One Of his best notices Is, "Grin and
begin to win"
If anybody can keep from grinnira
when gazing upon the grin Of Billiken
one must have sour soul indeed!

CLEANING With Bsnzlns.

One of the most discouraging things
about cleaning spot with benzine is
the ring that is left behind.
The spot comes out, but all around
It Is dark ring. which Is usually made
by the difference between the cleaned
spot and the material as it is.
Instead Of being discouraged the next
time this happens moisten the place
again and apply layer OF gypsum.
Put it beyond the edge of the ring and
let It dry on the material.

RATIONAL CURE FOR ECZEMA
No More Dosing the Stomach Cure the
Skin Through the Skin.

When you have scratch your hand
you wash II out and cleanse II and IT, en-
the skin cures itself You do not take
blood medicine to festered wound.
The best skin specialists today are
agreed that the only way to the skin
Is through the skin.
The fact that eczema is a skin disease
pnd not blood disease Is evident from sta
tistics which show that nearly all eczema
sufferers perfectly healthy in all other
ways except TO their skin If the &C.
zema patients were really suffering from an
inward malady, the entire body and not
only the skin would be diseased
You can prove Immediately the relief of
a true skin cure by using oil of winter
green as compounded in d. d. d. Prescrip-
tion.
This liquid attacks the disease germs
numbing them while building up the
healthy tissue of the skin. We have now
handled this meritorious and thoroughly
scientific remedy for long and have seen

MERGER BlLLPASSES Massachusetts Senate Accepts Commissions Bill Without
 Amendment. NOW GOES TO THE HOUSE Passage of Measure Long Delayed by Determined Democratic
 Filibuster.

Boston, June 5-The railroad reg ulation bill, which permits the New Haven railroad to continue to hold the stock of the Boston and Maine, but with the right of voting 1t vested with the railroad commission as trus- tees, was passed to be engrossed in the senate to-day by a vote of 23 to 12. The bill now goes to the house where 1t will go on the calendar for next week.
 The passage of the measure was de- layed by one of the most determined filibusters on the part of the demo- crats led by Senator Frank J. Linehan of Boston, known in Massachusetts in recent years. From day to day, since Monday, when the bill was first taken up, the opposition succeeded in blocking final action through the off, fering of hostile amendments and frequently attempting 10 secure recon sideratlon. 1t was only when the re- publican advocates of the bill com bined to force vote that the bill was given any serious consideration in debate by those against 1t. To-day proceedings were delayed by the bel ligerent faction. who for a time fought efforts to strike from the bill certain amendments adopted Thursday, it Having been discovered that they were unnecessary.
 On the final on passing the bill to be ongrossed the following republicans voted with tho democrats in the neg atlve: Triton s. Bell of Boston, Ed ward A. Gowee of Worcester, Arthur D. Norcross of Monson. Herbert & Riley of Woburn, Alfred s. Hull of Revere, and William s. saltor of Lynn.
 The present program is for the house of representatives to take ur the bill on Monday It will be read once and then placed in the orders of the day for Tuesday for debate. Its supporters will endeayor to force q vote either Wednesday or Thursday with the hope of laying it before tho governor hy Saturday, and also of bringing about the propagation of the | legislature late Saturday night.
