My wife and I were out walking when
the hat Of the man in front OF US blew off
and struck her eye, costing me 80 for dec

that cost me $50"
That is all anything needs to do-to
strike your eye Whatever it is seems to
make such a wound that it can only be
cured by possessing the thing that hits.
So you buy it.
1t is just as much an intemperance with
you as getting drunk is with a man. And
IL is even more expensive.
One man lives who trembles when his
wife goes TO the store" She is the most
unfashionable of people, and she has about
| as much idea of the value of materials as
l moth has Of the furs on which it feasts
But how she spends! She wants to buy
everything she sees She has the spending
mania. And, in her semi-final shopping
expedition she gets more trash and spends
more money than would equip a rummage

lily wardrobe for a year.
It's the spenders madness. And it's bale

The Merits of the Separ ate Waist

NEW YORK, Sept 5--A book could be
written on the merits OF the separate waist,
were 1t necessary. but every woman knows
the value OF this most generally service
able garment. Never were styles more
favorable to the amateur modiste. Why,
Dame Fashion seems to actually play into
her hands in respect to the simplicity of the
styles the practically OF combining sew
eral choice leftover materials and the
scantness OF dress patterns. The success Of
the separate waist lies in the correctness
Of the tight-fitting lining as much as in
the combination Of stuffs and the final
establishment Therefore. o amateur! do
not slight the fitted lining. 1t is half the
battle, the rest is 'ded ezy."
Allover lace or embroidery or novslty
nets, as we'll as the exquisite diaphanous
svhffs that need loose folds to show their
beauty. are easily handled over the fitted
lining. Pleasant blouses are still in favor,
though on the wane, and surplice effects
back and front are very desirable. One
sided effects even TO the use of two diff
ferent materials. and one-sided jabots OBJ
tain. Marie Antoinette fichus in every con-
eeivabIe size and Arrangement disappear
into high girdles. But these fichus are
usually of gauzy materials and cut so that
the folds will not make the figure look
bunchy.
Nothing could be more graceful for after
noon or evening wear than the design IL
lJstrated above. It was developed of
black and white stripe messaline. elabor-
ately trimmed with point de Venise lace,
The tight fitted Innings upon which fancy

cleaning through silk tissue. and royal
brocades are rich and elegant shimmering
under gauze. Some sXtravagant models
even show the underwsists hand painted
in punches OF wistaria or pink and blue

An innovation in cut Is the high-neeked
waist. Only the actual standing collar is
made of transparent white Of cream filst
OF shadow lace.
Big revers and cuffs and deep girdles are
sun popular, and buttons OF the same make
an exceedingly good finish. It is predicted
by the wise virgins that only the foolish
virgins will cling longer to the short waist
but II is such becoming style IL will die
hard. The clever needle woman will be
surprised at the success she can make of

Houerin'

Robert w Chambers, the novelist, was
discussing a new volume Of poetry.
1T is ambitious" he said, but the trag-
edy seems to me to be mechanical. In
fact, the grief in these verses reminds me
Of the grief of a Tennessee mountain
woman. ,t
She was eating pigs feet one day at
the door of her cabin. when a neighboI
came to tell her bad news. Her husband
had got in fight at the Three Corners
tavern, ball had lodged in his lung, and
he had died instantly.
The woman, pigs foot held midway
70 her mouth, listened TO this narrowing
tail in profound silence. Then, falling t.
her pigs foot vigorously again, she said
Wait till I finish this pigs trotter, an
ven hear some 'hollerin' as is hollerin'.'

How to Train a Wife

There Is no soy Of life which diminishes
more steadily and relentessly than that
which up to the age of % In woman and
perhaps % in man. accompanies the cele-
bration Of a birthday.
The Confirmed Commuter could recall
time in the first years of his marriage
when the Hopeful Housewife had Chartered
antlcipatingly Of the celebration Of her
natal day for weeks before II happened.
And the moment It was over had begun 70
speculate as TO what sort Of presents she
would get the next year But all this was
in the rusty and creakinE past.
Now the Commuter learned to recognize
the approach Of what had become q SOM
Der solstice OF existence only by the gentle
melancholy which suddenly pervaded his
wifes manner. and It was matter Of
doubt to him whether ne might acquire
moro merit by celebrating the inauspicious
occasion with the customary offering or by
forgetting It altogether.
He did not feel himself superior TO his
wife's dread OF the relentless years, but he
had had the good fortune to be born on
Christmas day, so that in his own case
the spirit OF holiday cheer always mti-
gates the birthday gloom and grouchy old
Father Time surrendered to iocund Santa
Claus
the Commuter was still debating whether
he should ignore the event or signalize II
And a glance at his wife, who was en-
gagged In that most mournfu of feminine
oecupations.-the search for gray hairs-did
not help him to solution.
What are YOU looking for?" he asked
as he glanced deprecatingly toward the
detected young person before the mirror.
For gray hairs" his wife answered,
with the usual frankness Of despair, for
gray hairs and wrinkles"
Then you'n have to sec far into the fl-
ture" replied the Commuter calamity.
You haven't either. and won't have for
twenty years"
"oh. yes. I will" she replied, with dis
pause, added sepulchrally, do you know
that I'm 30 years old today?"
why, OF course, / know it," the Com
muter answered. but only because you
say So No one would believe II other
wise" he added with exceptional tact
You just ought to see what I've got in
NY desk for you"
He did not say that she would have 70
possess phenomenal clairvoyance II she
ddid see it, as the gift was still unpurehased
and even unchosen.
The once Hopeful Housewife frightened
visibly under the prospect Of the still mys-
FERROUS gift and after the Commuter had
gone she spent several profitable hours in
speculation as to its character
But after that the stroke of thirty re-
sumed its monotonous knell, sounding not
quarters.

At the recent annual fur sale in LONDON

sold.
Japanese skins met with almost no favor
marten and fox skins remained unsold ana
onlv 800 mink skins out OF l3'49l FOUND

Only $3.50 chinchilla skins were offered
but as the supply is steadily decreasing the
demand was good and high prices were
realized.
Only sixty-one Falkland island seal skins
were offered; they sold readily. Lobos
island fur seal skins. 2,ss7, the first offered
in a little over two years, brought high
prices.
About 1000 sable skins are marketed
each winter in Nieolaevsk, Siberia at SO
to $50 each The number. however, is de-
creasing, but It Is difficult to say whether
from animals being exterminated or from
the failure Of the hunters 10 slay them.
The hunting Of sables is entirely by ma

During a good season about 1000 red fox
skins at an average of "a to s. each are
sold in the same city Of Siberia. The black
fox is scarce about ten skins being OBJ
tained annually, bringing 800 to $3.50 each

Brief Marriages

Apart from polygamy and concubinage
there exists in Moslem countries, especi-
ally in Persia, certain strange marriages,
by which q man can get wife for a short
der nite period of time, say, a month or
two. This is performed in the presence Of
a cadi (judge). A UNI OF money is deposited
for the temporary wife to be taken away
after the expiration of the fixed conjugal
