Money and expense are not essential to
artistic homes and attractive rooms. One
dollar and fifty cents worth of material
will completely transform a crude, mar
tistic room into graceful, dainty apart
ment.
Really it is good taste and skill that
makes the home homelike. That dainty
touch is worth twice as much as money.
Wall paper is expensive-it costs MOI ey
to buy it, to hang it and again to re,
move it. With the use of the alabast 4
wall there is only the slight cost OF the
material-any one can brush it on-and it
is not necessary to wash it off the wall
when fresh coat is required.
1t is very easy to mix, very simple to
apply, but the results are simply beauti-
full. A whole house can be done at just
a little more than the cost of a single
room when ordinary materials are used.
And this is true, that now that we have
so much better materials for use in the
decoration of our homes, that wall paper,
common kalsomine and paint are now as
much out of date as the old time white
wash, talow candles and rough hewn
floors. Mere money is no longer an es-
sential in good housefurnishing in artistic
home making.
The new materials and labor-saving ma
chimes are most welcome to us all-and
every thoughtful woman, every woman
who cares for her home, is quick to utilize
them.

The bids for the contract for feeding
these incoming foreigners during the
coming year have just been opened and
indicate that their daily menu In prob
ably the most expensive In tho country.
Thirteen bidders put in estimates for
the contract and the prices run from
30 cents to IS cents a day for each
person, or an average OF from about
7 to IL cents meal. The lowest bid
der figured that he could supply break
fast for cents, dinner for 8 cents, and
supper for cents. The next lowest
bid contained the same estimate for
breakfast, but figured cents more for
dinner and / cent more for supper 1t
is improbable however, that at pres
ent prices meat would be a leading
dish on the menu even on this extrav-
agant estimate. The contract also in
cludes the prices of many extras for
which the immigrant pays out of his
own pocket IL he wants them and can
afford to do so, and it is naturally to
such sales that the contractor looks
chiefly for his profit even though the
figures for these are taken into account
in making the award.
One of the most curious discoveries
ever made by officers of charitable in
stitutions and employment agencies
here has just been brought to light by
the compilation of figures which show
that among the INDECENT, height, far
from being an asset, is a positive han
dicap which adds to the difficulty of
obtaining work. Particularly this Is
true of men over fifty years of age, al
though 1t applies in lesser degree to
young men. Even a youthful six foot
err, 1t is pointed out, is more conspicu-
Gus for his shabbiness than smaller
man and therefore less likely to receive
employment. But after the half cent
ury mark is passed the handicap or
| height is greatly increased. The reason
| for this queer state of affairs as ex-
! planned by the head of a large employ
ment agency is found in the fact that
as soon as a man loses his erect car
riage every inch of his height hurts
him inthe estimation of his employers.
The short old man never stoops so much
| in his own way. For this reason his
advantage over the tall old man in get
ting a. job is marked. So after all the.
short man need not envy his taller
brother, unless for reasons of personal
vanity, for his would seem to be the
best chance.
