Increased Price Of Elk Teeth.

During the last five years the value
OF elk teeth has more than trebled,"
said western traveller at the Fred
eric, according to the st. Paul Dis
patch. "In 1904 you could get any num-
Der Of fine specimens in Idaho, Mon
tana, Washington and bordering states
for $3.50 apiece. Now you will pay
from $3.50 to $40, and they are hard
to get for even that. The Apache,
Sioux, Comanche and Chippewa Indi-
ans used to have dozens Of them in
their possession and traded them for
trinkets. But the redskin got wise to
their value, and you can buy them
from a regular dealer cheaper now
than from the Indian. The passing
of the elk and the great demand made
by the members of the Elk lodge for
teeth for emblems have boosted the
price,"
The traveller recited an incident of
an Oklahoman who bought robe COW
cred with elk teeth from Wichita
Indian for $780, He cut off the teeth
and cleaned up $4,000 on the deal.

NEW NAMES FOR OLD C0LORS

1t Is not easy to name new color,

and Vienna.
There Is tendency in the nomen-

color to describe more or less accu-

decided assistance in choosing ones

For instance, the new brown is

Care of STOCKINGS,

A buyer of hose in a large depart
ment store, speaking of the wear of
stockings, informed me that If Isle
and silk stockings are washed before
worn they will wear longer.
The reason given is that the slight
shrinkage brings the threads closer
together and there is then less danger
of ravages from imperfect stitches in
the weave, and incidentally a shoe
man claims that tan shoes will give
better service If they are given a
coating of the shoe polish that comes
prepared for tan shoes before being
worn.-Philadelphia Ledger.

A New Combination.

An extreme novelty is a combina-
ton garment of knickerbockers and
princess chemise. The upper part
fits the figure closely and has a dou-
BILE ruffle of lace, which falls in a cas-
cade from the yoke almost to the
waist line. The lower part Of this
garment is gathered into a band OF
lace and insertion at the knees, each
being edged with a full ruffle of linen
and lace. This entire combination is
striped with insertion and lace. It is
an attractive idea, which has been
evolved from the silk bloome-s Of
last season.

WEDDING FASHIONS CHANGE
Parisians Forsake Tradition and Give
Their Sanction to Some De-
cided Innovations.

In Paris some very notable changes
have taken place with regard to we'd
ding fashions. One Of these Is the
color chosen for the dress Of brides
mother at a daughters wedding. For
saking the traditional gray or mauve,
salmon pink is now as often selected
as any other. At recent wedding en-
societe the mother Of the bride wore
beautiful gown Of salmon pink
charmeuse, yelled with mousseline de
sole, the overdress being richly EN-"
broidered with steel beads.
Another beautiful scheme for we'd
ding was a superbly cut princess
frock of liberty satin In soft shade
of Natter blue. This, which was
richly embroidered in the same tone,
was worn with a large hat of black
panne, the feather cluster which
adorned it being fastened in place
with handsome jeweled ornament OF
emeralds and diamonds.

A Drama on the Street.

A remarkable coincidence occurred
at San Bernardino, Cal, one day late
ly, whereby couple about to be d.
vorced were happily brought together
again. Mrs. Walter Preston was on
her way to the court to secure d.
vorce against her husband when her
little daughter darted in the path of
an onrushing motor car. The moth
er's screams attracted the attention
of a man who dashed in front of the
machine, seized the little girl and
leaped to safety as the automobile
shot by. The rescuer proved to be the
husband and father. Explanations
were soon made, and the two made
their way to the attorneys office,
where Mrs. Preston tore up the d.
yorce complaint.

ITALIANS AND EWING.
Memorial Presented by Ambassador in London to Drury Lane.

| in London to Drury Lane.
 "The critics were very severe-and In my judgment justly severe ward the Dante of Sardou; but the fact remains that Irving, at the de cline of his life, felt the attraction of the influence of Dante's great person ality. Irving's endeavor to
 mpersonate on the English stage that powerful Individuality turned his last thoughts toward Italy, and today it is those among her sons who are united to him by the brotherhood of art who offer this tribute to a man who has so highly contributed to show to man. kind all the nobility and loftiness of his art"
 Thus spoke the Italian ambassador in London, the Marquis of San Giulia- no. at Drury Lane theater recently in unveiling the memorial to the late Sir Henry Irving presented by Signor Tommaso Salvini and the leading members of the dramatic profession in Italy, says the London Chronicle. The memorial shows the efigy of Irving in bronze, enriched by a wreath of laurels, with a background of gray marble
 The memorial has been placed on the wall at the head of the grand staircase. Around it yesterday were gathered many people well known in the dramatic world.
 You English artists" said the ann bassador in the course Of his speech, have greatly assisted me in my study of the English language. Frequenting the theaters and seeing your acting I have learned more of the English character, life, feelings and mode of thought than in reading many learned books-which I have tried to forget as much as possible"
 "The English artists have given elo- quent proofs of their sympathy with Italy by the homage they have paid to Salvini, the magnificent benefit to the memory of Ristori. and the part they have always taken in our charitable works. When Italy was still divided. when its independence and unity were still goal and an ideal. and to many people even a dream and a Uto- pia, Salvini and Ristori were among the forces which contributed to our national deliverance.
 "Salvini in 1S49 acted in Rome, and at the same time fought in defense or the cause of liberty. Once an alarm was raised during an interval. He went to the ramparts and after the repulse of the attack resumed the performance Of course that evening the curtain, after the interval. did not rise with the scrupulous punctuality of the English stage"

A ragged Irishman was charged ID a London court a short time ago with rendering a counterfeit shilling in pay ment for a penny loaf.
 Though forlorn in aspect, he was not destitute of that shrewdness which is characteristic of his countrymen. He stated that he was sent for the loaf by a person at public house close by, who gave him the coin to pay for 1t, and that on discovering It was not good he bought the coin for three half pence.

 The rise and fall of Charles W.
 Morse forms an interesting chapter in the recent history of New York's financial methods. As young col lege man in Maine he engaged in the ice business and prospered. and with a good working capital came to New York, where he formed the Ice Trust. with capitalization of $40,000,0 900. Then he branched into the banking business and soon owned or controlled twenty different financial institutions, using one bank security for securing control of another. Not content with these triumphs, which netted him many millions, he organized the Con- solidated Steamship Company, with capitalization of $12O. 100000. Had not the panic of 1907 occurred, Morse would have been able to swing his great enterprises. but he fell one of the victims of that disastrous financial crash and in night the title of Ice King, Banking King and Steamship King passed away from him forever. Tn an endeavor to save himself he mis- funds of the National Bank of North America, and it is for this offense he is now a prisoner in he Atlanta penitentiary.
