Talk to His Wife.
"Mrs. Lambert. I think we will have
to cut down expenses" remarked Mr.
Lambert timidly.
To his intense surprise she made no
reply. Then he grew bolder.
And | am certainly of the opinion
on gowns and hats"
Again no answer. His bravery jump
ed up another notch.
And, Mrs. Lambert. | must say fur
thermore that we will have no more
teas or receptions"
Silence. Mr. Lambert grows daring
courageous.
at is simply an outrage the way you
lavishly expend my hard earned mon
ey. You have no consideration and al
low your extravagant ideas to carry you
off your feet. Do you realize that we
are living beyond our means?"
No answer.
do you know that am making
500 month and you are deliberately
spending $500? Can't you see the fam,
lily Is bound to land in the poorhouse"
Silence. Mr.. Lambert's fOrtitude is
nnbOunded.

enough. Mrs Lambert. Do you under
stand? You have henpecked me until
life is now unbearable. Now I intend
to take hold Of the reins. will man

There was a sudden crash, then
yell. Mr.. Lambert's head came into
contact with the bedpost as Mrs. Lam
bert shook him furiously, and she ex-
claimed:

when you are asleep? What in the
world are you dreaming about any
way? 1t Is simply barbarous the way
you disturb my rest after | work so
hard all day keeping the house in Or

in Paris all formal costumes have
long sleeves, often finished with a
narrow square cuff. So far the long
sleeves here have mostly been con-
fined to undersleeves Of semi-trans-
parent materials-tucked chiffon or
net.
Flesh-colored stockings are the latest fad for
wear for house or evening gown, while the ac-
companying shoes are made of the gown material.
This fancy is probably suggested by the present
revival of near classical style--the next step may
be sandals. For street wear fancy of the

trasts absolutely with the gown worn with pat.

Grover put up at the Putnam House. A

gas for him and left him with his mex
perience, a sombrero and his six-shooter.
Before retiring he famed out the gas
with his sombrero and went to sleep.
This morning Gail Townsend. another
cowboy, visited Growers room to arouse
him. He smelled gas. found Grover slum-
bering too heavily for natural sleep and
called a physician. The Sheridan county
recruit had to be taken to Bellevue to be
Fesuscitated.
A committee Of enlightenment will wait
upon Grover when he thoroughly recov-
ers and explain the propensities of illu-
ninating gas dynamite, live wires and
other details Of an effete civilization.
