 And you haven't said a word about the butterfly folks who attend the music fes- tiva1," observed Ashes of Roses, who was scanning the orchestra chairs observing the fashionable throng.
 Well my dear,' said Alice Blue, "they are deserving of a large space all to them selves; they are sui generis, and would occupy a whole volume in my types.

Whether the majority go because it's the thing to do, or really for arts sake And I've given you my ideas. And to the list already mentioned there is just one more type. When the days work of classifying is apparently finished when the curtain is down and the seats are empty-at the green room door you will find even one moro specimen; the type which has morbid curiosity to shake hands with the musicians and talk with them, and follow them to the end of the chapter-usually the abnormally morbid student, whose one aim is to touch shoulders with great ness"

Jenkin Lloyd Jones, a noted clergyman of Chicago, said: "The big hats women wear are signs of the evil of the world.

 The floral tributes were many, varied and most beautiful, great banks of all kinds of cut flowers in almost every de- sign being deposited on the mound.

 A new industry m the form of an fec and ice cream manufactory has been started in Monrovia under the proprietorship of one of the attaches to the Liberian commission. The ma chine Is of American manufacture, from the New Brunswick Refrigerator company, and has a capacity of one ton It turns out 500 pounds of ice and ten gallons of ice cream daily. It Is principally an ice cream machine, but ice is such rarity that the projector decided to experiment in its manufac- ture. This is the first effort of it's kind in Liberia. and the demand for ice, especially for fever-stricken sub iects, influenced the experiment. The manager declares that the result has been encouraging and will lead to the ultimate enlargement of the plant, with a cold storage attached. This en- terprise has filled a long-felt need in Monrovia. especially among the in- vallds of foreign birth.
