Man the Mere LampliEhter.

cately insinuates that in American IKE
she is 'the whole orchestra" He says;
These women-the American maid and
wtfe-are fundamentally different from
their sisters in Europe, whether In the
past or present. Far from aking the
slightest interest in man, they look down
upon him. Man in America plays neither
first nor second fiddle, he does noe even
heat the drum. He is the mere lamp
lighter OF the orchestra of life in the
United States.
Nothing is more common in the states

tricks with which they work upon the
audience. In native elemental talent they
do not believe at all. How could they

Hitherto IS a pound for hair in ordinary
brown and dark shades was regarded by
the peasants as an excellent price and they
parted willingly with their locks at that
rate, but last year prices commenced to
rise a little and this year they drove hard
bargains with the dealers and hair
dressers. Hair worth s. previously rose to
so or s12 a pound, while golden locks
fetched SIS, and the highest price Of all
was obtained for a small quantity Of silver
white hair Of fine texture, as much as IS
a pound being paid for one lot.
Never before have the peasants reaped
such profits, and though there are many
shorn heads all through the country the
owners are happy in the possession Of

puffs comes also the decree OF fashion
that waves should be abandoned. In fact,
English women are wearing the plaipest

geration Of puffs, curls, waves, jewelled
pins, ribbons and flowers that made heads

One Feminine Economy.

Women's outfitters in New York City
make complaint that the increase in auto
MODELLING has hurt the trade in women's
clothing. 1t seems that the machine road
car has slmplified to some extent the
problem of feminine garb. Smart people,
and people who seem smart, no longer
need to settle down at a fashionable
watering place and display a varied col
lection of ornate gowns, designed for every
period of the day. Nowadays. a woman
can fit hither and thither in an auto
mobile, attired in automobile costume.
Perhaps she may take with her two or
three simple gowns. suitable for appearing
in a hotel, and possibly one gown for even
ing wear. This is equipment enough for a
season, and the saving may count some
thing against the maintenance Of the ma
chine wagon. If this plan has been &C
tually adopted in practice to any great
extent, it is not surprising that city mer-
chants have noticed the difference in ex-
penditures. The economy may be needed,
moreover, for 1t is a conjecture almost
superfluous that at least some of the gay
est users of the machine wagons feel
somewhat the cost of their pleasure.

craned their necks to get a first glimpse
of the bride, Miss Fannie Doty changed

minister and sent her father to inform the
guests hat the wedding had been post
poned indefinitely
The announcement Of Miss Doty's en-
gagement to Rev. Mr.. Snodgrass, who is
from Hammond, Ind, was made several
months ago, and preparations for the
wedding have been going on for three
weeks. The ceremony was to have been
performed at the home of the prospective
bride, who Is a daughter of Marion Doty,
a wealthy farmer living six miles east Of
Nation.
The affair was to nave been the most
elaborate social event in the history Of
Coles county and more than 200 guests had
been invited. Most of them were at the
Doty residence. At 8 o'clock Rev. Mr..
Snodgrass and the minister who was to
perform the ceremony entered the parlor.
There was an embarrassing wait for the
bride, and one of the groomsmen was sent
to ascertain the cause of the delay.
He returned with the girls father, who
announced the postponement. The guests
departed and the wedding supper went un-
touched. Rev. Mr.. S~nodgrass returned TO
his home in Hammond without
ing on the postponement and Miss Doty
refuses TO say why the ceremony was not
performed.
