SHARP RIVALRY IN SOCIETY.

This year, as ever, there arises the
question as to just what is the open
ing Of the society season. The social
leadership in Washington has never
been conferred in one person or one
set, but each of the distinctive sets,
of almost equal Importance, conducts
It's own season as though 1t was the
center of the social season. Only in
few formal White House receptions
do all sets recognize a common lead
ership. And so this year Washington
will have several society openings.
There is the White House set and
the diplomatic, official and army and
navy sets. Each has distinct char
acter of its own.
The White House set changes as
the occupants Of the White House
change. Political expediency rules to
some extent in arranging most White
House gatherings. Official society
takes its cues largely from the White
House set, but 1t also has many activi-
ties of its own. Its leaders are drawn
from the families of senators, rep
resentatives and other government
officials.
The diplomatic set is the most al
Turing. 1t is cosmopolitan. Good fell
lowship prevails. The social doings
Of the corps have a charm which is
felt by all who comes within the cir
Gle.
In the army and navy circle there
is a friendship born Of many expert
ences in common in the service and
the social life which they enjoy is de-
lightful.
In all Of the sets there are bright
particular stars, but there is no par
ticular one that greatly outshines the
others.
Among the leaders are Mrs. Meyers,
wife of the secretary of the navy;
Mrs. John B. Henderson, Mrs. Herbert
Wadsworth, Mrs. Winthrop Murray
Crane and her sister, Miss Mabel
Boardman, and Mrs. Preston Gibson.
All these are popular and have their
strong following, but among them
there has not arisen one who can

has been left astern. They give these
reasons for their prediction Of plenti-
full money:
Primarily the banks saw what
looked like money shortage coming
several months ago. They knew they
could expect no help from the United
States treasury, such as they got in
1908, and prepared themselves. They
have piled up gold, built up reserves
and cut down loans. Bonds or other
securities which might not be easy to
sell quickly have been turned into
money. Panics foreseen never come.
fnanciers say.
Money is plentiful in England and

How Paper Is nrarb1ed.

The process of manufacturing any.
thing is interesting, but some articles
derive a special interest from the Pc
culiar method followed in their pro-
duction, as, for instance, the wavy,
"marbled paper" so largely used in
book binding.
To marble paper a shallow bath Of
gum tragacanth, or goats horn, is pre-
pared, and upon this the workman
sprinkles from a fiat brush the colors
required for the desired pattern. When
the whole surface is covered with
splotches of color, the workman takes
a huge comb, which he draws with a
wavy motion the length of the tub. An
expert marbler can so arrange his
colors as to copy any pattern. Next
the man takes a sheet of paper and
lays it deity upon the surface of the
bath, allowing it to remain for a mo-
ment. When the sheet is lifted the
entire film of color comes with it, and
it is necessary to resprinkle and re-
comb the bath for the next sheet.
In marbling the edges of the leaves
of book, the body of the book, with.
out the covers, is so held that the
edges may be quickly dipped into the
bath. In this case, of course, one pre-
pared bath will serve for a number OF
volumes, as each volume removes but Q
small area of the colors.

with City Editor Burton. who was
more ridiculous excuse for a lion than
ever, Betty and Larry made up for lost
time in love-making, and Johnny and
LIE Malheureux held high converse in
the laboratory and battery room. Be-
fore they came to Cairo Johnny was as
chock full of electrical phrases as the
X-ray machine of sparks. He gave an
electrical clinic every time you went
near him, and everybody aboard, from
Tyoga, in her neat little electrical
kitchen, and Benoni and Meta, sitting
astern in silent communion, sped away
from Johnny and his newly acquired
knowledge. Hackleye was the only
lonely one aboard. He spent most Of
his time in steamer chair, gazing at
the sky line in the day time and at
the stars at night. AS they neared
Cairo he became even more difident
and subdued.
His house at Cairo was a we'll set
up home, furnished in an odd combi-
nation of oriental and occidental modes,
and stood little apart from the city.
The children were not we'll. Walters
hip was bothering him, and it was
agreed that it would be better to rest
week at Cairo instead of Immediately
setting out for America and England.
Into the house walked Johnny one
day. At the door he met Benoni.
Where's Hackleye?" he asked.
I'm his rooms" pointed Benoni.
Johnny followed him down the hall.
"Benoni," he urged, "why don't you
loosen up and tell us about this?
There's big injustice being done
somewhere, and it isn't right. Why
don't you help us out. You've been a
big man, as big inside as you are out.
We know that. Your fidelity to the
Wayne family has shown itself in a
thousand ways. Let us get this all
cleared up; if nest of crime exists
why can't we get at 1t and kill it be-
fore any more innocent people suffer
from it. There's Mrs. Desterle, she
never did anything to any of these peo-
ple."
She's Dead" interrupted Benoni. Il
got some dispatches this morning."
Poor woman" said Johnny, what
else did you get, Benoni?"
Nothing, except that Harcourt is
still in Jail, that his wife has recovered
her health, and some think she is GO
ing to divorce him. They say he has
confessed to having loved Cerisse
Wayne!" tc
"What?" shouted Johnny, IT must go

Benoni. HE may be glad to see you"
"Benoni," Johnny said, gravely, az
don't believe he killed his wife. If ii

saw Hackleye enter that bedroom
where Cerisse Wayne was found dead
since you say Harcourt has confessed
to having loved her, I'd say that Har-
court killed her. Those two garters ]
