The Resource fulness of Sue

Sue was typewriter and Ethel inda sold lovely laces in big shop. They lived in an apartment that had plenty of closet room-five rooms and bath, to be exact. Sue usually stopped on the way home and bought two lamb chops and head of lettuce, if 1t was the beginning of the week, or five cents worth of stew meat and no lettuce, if it was toward the tag end of the week, near pay day. Sue was generally the one to negotiate the purchases because shs left the office at five and came up town on an ex- press train, while Ethelinda's shop didn't close until six
 Now, upon a certain evening they had invited Marie and Ralph to dine with them. They could say dine, because they intended to turn in the necks of their shirt waists and wear their near-Brussels lace collars and because Marie was going to bring over her finger bowls. It behooved Sue to shut up her typewriter on the very stroke of five, therefore, even if the manager passed her the glance frappee, and make all possible speed to the express train.
 She had the list of dinner items complete. Chops, bread, lettuce (oh this was Monday evening", corn on the ear, meringue pie and some Der. ries for desert. She looked like the Goddess of Plenty as she reached the door of the flat house.
 She had to put down the chops, the bread and the lettuce on the floor oi the vestibule while she dug in her bag for the keys.
 Keys? Keys? Here was her pen knife, her handkerchief. pencil, three hairpins, some chewing gum, a pow der puff, nail file, a mirror and her list of dinner supplies-but no keys Clearly she must have left them al the office in her hurry. Now, here was indeed pretty how-de-do!
 Ethelinda wasn't due for an hour the guests were apt to come along any minute, and she had ordered the grocer to send around the four bot ties of lice cold" right straight away and now she couldn't even get in te open the dumbwaiter door.
 It was comparatively easy to col lect the pie. the chops. the bread the lettuce and the berries and gt down through the cellar and up tho four flights of stairs to her apartment door. But then what? She sat dowI on the stairs and thought some more

IMMENSE ARMY OF STUDENTS
About 14,00o,000 at Present In the Ed. ucationai institutions of the
 United States.

If the entire school army of stu. dents in the United States be mus. tered as an educational display it would represent probably 14,000,0 900 persons, of whom about 92 per cent are white. The exact number, accord ing to the twelfth census, on June i, 1900, was 13,367,147. Until the thir- teenth census of the United States Is issued, in 1910, there can be no definite estimate of the increase in numbers. The twelfth census of the United States apportions the national school army as follows: Four million two hundred and sixty five thousand three hundred and two persons from nve to nine years of age and 6,453,394 persons from ten to fourteen years or age. Other persons ranging from fifteen to seventeen years of age, constitute not quite 13 per cent. of the entire strength of the educational forces, and those of eighteen and over about five per cent. of the whole num- Der.
 A significant fact was revealed in the research which was made in estl. mating the actual and the possible strength of the school army of the United States. that out of the entire number of children ranging between five and nine years of age available only half attended school: of those from ten to fourteen years of age sub. stantially four-flfths and of those from fifteen to seventeen a little over two. f1fths.

Americas High Entertaining.

One, would think from the dis ~nssion that is going on in regard to the demands of society upon members of the cabinet and other officials that the extravagant eN> penditure of money in entertaining was far beyond the means of the most of persons who are invited t.o ii these positions.
 # must be admitted that the rrica of everything is far in ex coss of that of any other era in tho history of our country and +herefore to comply With the usual re,gu. ationst governing social inI tercourse at the national capital one must evpend much more mon ey than was necessary when ev -rything was cheaper than it is today. Tn the first place rentals for houses that are worthy ol occupation by these officials are about double what they were 2O years ago.
 The appointments of the homes of high officials are also more ex 1 pensive and elaborate than of yOre But that it is necessary for public 0r vatepromtnent people to in7 du,ge in the extravegances in the character of the entertainments they give is a mistake and it will be a fortunate day when the Ans
