A party Of travellers IN a Broadway res
taurant were discussing Mrs. Alice Roose-
welt Longworth's proposed balloon ascent.
One OF them, a friend Of the Roose-

Alice"
When COL Roosevelt was governor
Of New York Alice was wild to have her
coming out reception held during his term
OF Office, I'm order that IL might be
attended with all the eclat behtting the

that she was too young and ordered the

her own and was heartbrokcn at the
thought that her coming out might not
take place tin her father had retired "a
private life. AS a result there were sew
eral stormy family scenes. Col. Roose-
welt however. held 70 his decision and the
coming out was postponed.
One day. after the Roosevelt family

The Practical Young Man and the Girl

nights and a stretch Of sheltered beach
with an old wrecked schooner smuggling

It seemed as though they had KNOWN

Practical Young Man said so. and the
Girl from Boston. knowing him to be
practical, agreed with him. One night.
when feecy cloud passed .accommodat-

beach seemed even more sheltered than
usual and the old wreck was actually re-

SO often I have sat behind girls who
IN every word seemed 10 express refine

known the moment that they opened
their lips that their education and home
training were defective. Some day you

society. and yet they might have been

Pretty clothes are desirable. and a

is no law against a woman living with

Unshamed and forever the shameless.
The top and creation is she
All civilizations have passed her
And left her barbarian still.
And man who had dreamed he Is master
Is simply a slave Of her will
She Smpers and g,ances demursly.
And locks like a saint as she roes:
As sweet as lily. yet surely
She's leading some man by the nose
For hers are the primal resources
of strong. unTegenegate sense;
Bupiicty marshals her forces
And art is her subtle defense.
Oh man. YOU may marvel and wonder.
May reason and argue aud fret

and after the freshly laundered clothing
has been brought upstairs. I found that
damaged hosiery accumulated too rap
idly when we had a surplus Of fine
weather, as we have had at times during
the year
But I can always find bureau drawers

chatty kind which we all ike 20 receive

a pleasant companion. so much the bet

short II is a great thing to be resource
ful. for lonely hours are liable to come
20 any OF MS and they must be borne
like other affiictiOns-sO why not be phil
osophical and prepare for them as we
do for heat and cold?
There is one housewife. al least. who
does not feel justified IN spending her
time IN fancy work. save on rainy days.
She knows that there Is multitude OF
homely tasks to be done, and that II
Is better for her health and spirits that
she get outdoor exercise and keep up
some degree Of soclabllity. But on bad
weather days she revels in frivolous
WORK and accompllshes good deal dur
ing the year.
There are homes where one can never
find reading matter-I have seen a few
OF them-and there one can find some
excuse for dreading foul weather There
is nothing like absorption IN fiction or
history or biography TO bring forgetful-
ness of hard conditions. The average
woman reads newspapers and fiction and
often skins through both. and that will
not bring fOrgetfulness. There must be
something 20 grip the attention and hold
# Il one Is TO be obllvious to surround

matter supplied to children and no reason
why the taste for reading should not be
cultivated. A daily paper, thoroughly

FOR
A SHIP SUBSIDY
CONGRESSMAN SAYS BILL WILL
BE PASSED AT NEXT SESSION
OF The HOUSE.

SAN FRANCISCO, September IL
81 think the recent visit of the Con-
gressmen from the Middle Western
States is going to do more for the ship
subsidy problem than anything else
could have DONE" said Congressman
William Englebright yesterday.
The Pacific Coast men stand to-
gether on that proposition. All of us
know the necessity of a ship subsidy.
Even George Bartlett of Nevada, who
is a Democrat, bolted his party on that
proposition, to vote for the good of the
Pacific Coast
THE Democratic vote as d party
vote has always gone solid against the
ship subsidy. The two exceptions have
been Bartlett, whom have mentioned,
and Richard Pearson Hobson. And
then there have been a number of Re-
publicans from the Middle West who
have gone across the house and voted
with the Democrats, thus defeating
the measure. The bill has never lost
out by a large majority.
81 was tickled to death TO nave sollie
of the worst kickers against the bill
from my own party among the recent
delegation which visited here, and was
shown shipping conditions as they are
today in San Francisco bay. l be-
lieve that the object lesson which we
administered to them at that time will
do an immense lot of good for ship
subsidy, and | think that we shall win
out in the next Congress with the bill,
which will then be brought up.
"A lot of those fellows who have
been raising corn all of their lives
never appreciated before just what
serious problem this has been and is
to the Pacific Coast But | think few
eyes were opened, and If there is any
chance for the California delegation to
swing the vote in Congress there will
be ship subsidy next year.
