Mems and women's Holiday Time.

Fron the Philadelphia Bur-'in-
Women never have a real holiday. This
is the opinion Of men who have studied
them on their vacations. They say women
never really relax themselves. but spend
their holidays in worrying about dress
and trivial things instead OF deciding TO
enjoy themselves and exclude from their
mind all their troubles. Here is a com
parison made between men and women on
their holidays: The men in the various
resorts I visited usually came down TO
breakfast dressed in well-worn Norfolk
suits or fannels. They wore soft collars,
and were ready for IoIl on the beach. a
game OF tennis. golf. or anything that
was different from the regular grind OF
the year. They entered into the spirit of
the day and the events. They were en-
joying themselves. and they even hest
tated about dressing for dinner. Take the
women. on the other hand The costume
they breakfast In Is invariably changed
in some degree, II only the blouse, fO-
luncheon; during the larger part OF the
afternoon they are engaged in arraying
themselves afresh for tea; they always
dress for dinner. and often change again
il they are going out 10 spend the even
ing in the open air This gives the wOm-
en- four changes each day TO the mems
one. That is considerable enough, but
really It is not the strongest point. OF my
theory. The great point is that while
men wear their oldest and most comfort
able clothes on holiday. women's holiday
clothes are generally as new and-not
putting too fine a point on it-as SNOWY
as possible

The announcement that Trow's Direc-

l24th annual appearance makes it look
like. as a nation, we were reaching some
age. Every day fresh census returns
show we are certainly growing apace,
and when it is realized that an army Of
people are making a living in getting and
compiling the data for this fine showing.
II is interesting 10 remember that the
first census returns were gathered just
about this part Of the country in the
dawn tide OF American civilization by
Capt John Smith. One man was suffi-
cient for all the work. so small was the
population of the then known part of the
country. but the danger was a good deal
more acute than the feat Of numbering
the citizens OF far-off Alaska. which we
have heard so much Of recently. The
captain was something of a free lance,
and tho enumeration was evidently taken
on .his own responsibility It helped fur

SMALL FIRE; BIG SMOKE
Fire Chief Chambers Has Narrow
Escape from Serious Injury

Fire was discovered at 1880 this
morning and from the smoke pourin =
out the fire department thought there
work ahead The fire was in a
small house used as a wood sheed near
Major L. r. IZlar's residence and was
in full blaze when the firemen reached
the scene. \ line of hose was laid and
the fire was out in g few minutes.
Chief Hamp Chambers came near
having serious accident with the
chemical wagon. When he turned, in
a reasonably slow trot,- at The corner
of Oklawaha avenue and Watula
street, the horse slipped, when his feet
struck the smooth cement sidewalk
that extends across the street at this
point and fell to his side. Mr.. Chamb-
ers had the lines around his wrist and
the jerk almost pulled his right arm
off and he is now suffering from the
severe strain. One shaft broke of and
the horse is n little stiff from his fall
but will soon be all right. The dam
age at the fire was very little. y big
crowd soon gathered as the fire was
SO near the center of town.
