A WOMAN'S ANSWER

THE barber who when shaving YOU or cut
ting your hair tries to sell YOU an innu-
merablc lot Of tonics and pomades YOU DO not
need hash anything over his sister, the talk
ativc lady in the hair dressing emporium.
"And now. Madame, will YOU have any
thing on your head when | am tinished3"
asked the artistic rs she concluded a vigorous
shampoo.
81 am sure don't know" was Madame s
unsmilng reply. 81 was in hope YOU would
leave enough hair TO pin my hat to.

The methods employed in your day would

THE CAVALIER, shaking his head and

HIM, History tells us that William the Con-
queror wooed his lady with club, or bat
tleax, or something Of the sort, and she con-
sequently liked him the better for it; which
was all very natural and proper Of course, in
her case, seeing that hers was the day of bat
tleaxes and things. But, then. as | said be-
fore, Sir, the times are sadly changed, -
women NAV still admire strength Of body
and even, occasionally, of mind; but the
theory Of Dog, woman, and walnut tree Is
quite obsolete.
THE CAVALIER, frowning and shaking his
head-or seeming to
BELLEw: "Ha. you don't believe me:
Well, that is because YOU are obsolete too
yes, Sir, as obsolete as your hat, or your
boots, or your long rapier. Now, for in
stance, suppose | were TO ask your advice IN
my own case? You know precisely how the
matter stands at present between Miss An
thea and myself You also know Miss An
thea personally, since you have seen her
much and often, and have watched her grow
from childhood into-er- glorious woman
hood, i repeat, Sir, glorious womanhood
Thus, YOU ought TO know and understand
her far better than /; for do confess she Is q
constant source OF bcwilderment TO me. Now
since YOU DO know her 50 well, what course
would you adopt, were you in my place.
THE CAVALIER, smirking more knowingly
than evcr-or seeming to
BELLEw: "Prepostcrous. Quite absurd
And just what | might have expected.
Carry her off, indeed. No, no, we are not
living in your bad, old, glorious days when a
maids no was generally taken to mean yes
or when a lover might swing his reluctant
mistress up to his saddlebow and ride of
with her, leaving the world far behind To-
day it is all changed, sadly changed Your
age was a wild age, a violent age; but in
some respects. perhaps, a rather glorious
age. Your advice is singularly character
iStic and, of course, quite impossible, alas

away, lighted his pipe. which had gone out,
and buried himself in the newspaper.

MILLION DOLLAR
STOCK PARADE

Iowa people who have never wit
messed the great stock parade which
is always held on the last day of the
State Fair have missed the sight Of q
lifetime. It is. worth more to go SEQ
than to catch glimpse of corona
ton parade or an inaugural display.
The horses and cattle that have won
the ribbons are brought out and
marched before the amphitheater,
each animal with his evidences Of
prize winning, each one groomed per-
fectly, and all carefully handled. The
visitor gets chance to compare
herds and breeds as we'll as individual
animals. Only the best of the ami.
mails are shown. Their value may
easily reach million dollars; for the
Iowa State Fair attracts the very
best herds in the world and larger
number of prize winning horses and
cattle than ever come together at any
other place.

After a complete tie up of street

Both sides have obeyed the injunc

WATER VENDORS STIRRED.
Trouble Over Action of Owners Of
italian Spring.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
ROME. July L. 1911.
Every visitor to Rome will remember
the street cry of "Acqua Acetosa"-the
wonderful water which wells up near the
Tiber not far from Parioli. and which
is supposed to be "a cure for all human
ills. Rome is at present in the throes
Of an "acqua acetosa' crisis. which af-
fects more people than the government
monopoly scheme. Some time ago the
municipality considered that the mode In
which the water was put into TASKS was
insanitary, and il was. therefore. decided
to grant the spring from July l to
firm OF dealers.
Now, the spring is the property of the
Roman people," to whom Old Prince
Chigi. its former owner, long ago be-
que athed it in his will, and for many
wears about $50 small venders called
'.acuuacetosari,' have made living by
selling the water in the streets.
The firm which has obtained the con-
cession from the municipality has pro-
posed to pay these vendors fixed sum
of 62 cents day, pocketing the surplus
profits and increasing the price Of the
water to the public. The ''acquacetosari''
are, accordingly, in ferment; public
opinion is largely on their side, and the
new service has SO far proved inadequate.
1t is pointed out that the municipality
might have preserved the old system.
with the necessary addition OF proper
sanitary inspection, which should not
have been difficult.
