NEW YORK. March 1~9,-(Special to the
Publishers Press .)-For several days l
have heard the report bruited that Mrs
William K. Vanderbilt, ST., will soon be-
come the proud possessor of the Order Of
the Legion Of Honor. 1t was said that the
French government, at the next announce
ment Of enrollments and promotions, would
include her name In the honor list.
This is one Of the highest honors to be
paid to an American woman. The govern
ment of France has decorated few Ameri-
cans and has shown great reluctance to ex-
tending it's honors to American women.
1 understand that the government ex-
pressed the desire, through it's representa-
tives governing the bestowals of the legion,
to recognize Mrs. VandeTbi!t's generous
charitable donations. The most important
OF the efforts in this direction is the new
hospital recently established in Paris. 1t
was erected entirely at Mrs. Vanderbilt's
expense.

Mrs. Gabrielle Stewart Mulliner, lawyer
n member of many fashionable clubs in
this city, now rises to a point Of order and
declares that the salvation of society
women from the drink habit must be
brought about by the man.
THE Women's Christian Temperance
union first saved the men," said Mrs.
Mulliner, but now the shoe seems to be
upon the other foot. The amount Of wines,
WHISTLES, champagnes and other drinks
among fashionable women In this city is
appalling. This is the season Of the year
when We hear most Of society women seek
ing rest for broken-down nerves in the
south. and In Europe. But the real reason
for the break down lies elsewhere. II the
drink habit were eliminated in high society
the greater number OF fashionable saRi-
tGriums would be wiped out OF existence,
A few hours healthy sleep after a dance
is sufficient to give refreshment from the
natural exercise, but II requires more
sleep than this to eliminate the evil effects
OF the champagne served during the dance.
II is thought smart in fashionable society
for women TO drink cocktails.

Maekay would sanction dinners without

What tho Y. w. c. A. Is Doing.


With President Taft to open the
campaign, st. Louis raised the sum
of 100000 for a new Y. w. G. A.
building. The st. Louis Trust COM
pany presented the association with
a 100000 lot. The entire sum was
raised in three or four months of
work and the thorough business-like
way in which the women. conducted
the campaign is worthy Of high praise,
says writer in Success Magazine.
The recent success of that organi-
cation throughout the United States
has been amazing. In Youngstown,
Ahio, $1S1,057 was collected in six
days. The women of Colorado
Springs raised $4,000 during the
month of June. Pittsburg has erect
ed a new structure at a cost of
s3z5, 600 and Cleveland's new build
ing Is estimated at $3.50 900. st.
Paul is now erecting a $3OO.OO0
structure, while Los Angeles has
bought new property worth s250,000.

A Progressive Plank.

Both parties in their platforms
adopted plank favoring the consti-
tutional amendment providing for per-
support of the state univer-
sity. No opposition in either party
was manifested The only discour-
agement came in the Indifference of
ignorance of some citizens who should
have been informed of the conditions
proposed in the change.
In asking for a three mill direct
tax, friends of education in Missouri
are only trying to place the state uni
versity on a par with the common
schools which now receive by provis-
ion of the constitution permanent
support. One-third of the general rev.
enue is now placed in separate fund
for the public schools.
The general assembly will still have
control of the appropriations. Just
as in the past, this money must be
appropriated out of the state treasury.
1t does, however, relieve the univer-
sity, Just as are the common schools,
from the pressure of other state insti-
buttons. If adopted. the collateral in
heritance tax will no longer be needed
by the university. If not adopted, the
collateral tax will have to remain. The
mill tax will not increase the amount
of money devoted to the state univer-
sity but will give an assurance that
money will be Forthcoming for its sup
port. There will be no need of a rep
etition of a threatened loss of the
president of the university because
another western state can afford to
pay the price.-Joplin News Herald.

Queer Taxation Proposals.

The sum of $1O,000,00O is needed in
the next French budget for the new
pensions scheme for workingmen. Be
fore M. Cookery, the minister of f.
nance, left for a holiday he made it
known that he would be grateful to
any clerk in :he finance department
who could suggest any new tax to
help in the necessary sum.
On his return to Paris M. Cookery
found long list of suggestions await
ing his consideration. Some Of them
were decidedly original. and most of
them were highly impracticable. Here
are a few of the proposed subjects
of taxation:
Bachelors and old maids. all unmar-
ried people over 30, unless they can
prove that they have proposed mar
riage twice and been refused, to pay
an annual tax till they marry.
Pianos.
First-class railway tickets.
Bathrooms in private houses,
these" says the man who, suggests
the tax, being an unnecessary refine
ment."
Original paintings.
Toys.
Plays which have had more than
fifty performances and books after
their first editions.
A tax on marriage portions is an
other suggestion, but the queerest, OF
them all is a proposal to, tax goldfish.
This is suggested by man who has
been in, the finance department for
more than twenty years.-Washington
Post.
