New York Hotels Are Forced TO En-
large Accommodation for Aft
ernoon Parties Of Women.

New York.-The increasing popu-
larity Of the English custom of drink
ing afternoon tea among New York
women has forced the big hotels, one
after another. to devote special rooms
to that purpose. The new Hotel Mar
Unique has announced that one room
with a seating capacity Of ESQ per
sons win be open for tea from to 8
o'clock every afternoon
It has been said by some Of those
opposed to the custom that the popu-
larity of afternoon tea was due to the
fact that it enables those who prefer
something stronger to have the insidi-
Gus cocktail or the popular highball
served In cup instead Of attracting
attention by taking the liquor out Of
the ordinary glass. However that
may be. the big hotels serve hun
dreds Of their patrons with tea daily.
and especially on Saturday after
Moons. after the matinee.
Many of the large hotels. like the
Waldorf-Astoria, Plaza. Aston, Knick-

Tremendous Increase In Con-

Methods Of Cutting Are So WastefuI
That Exhaustion. Is Within Meas

to London Times-

London.-An article In the London
Times concerning the worlds supply
Of timber and its wasteful handling is
attracting much attention. According
to the figures given. the situation is
rapidly growing serious. The Times
says
The savants OF all nations have
been fo-etelling for years the ap-
preaching extinction Of the worlds
forest reserves, but, with one OF two
exceptions. little apparent effect has
been produced on the policy Of govern
ment respecting afforestation.
There may now be said to be only
six countries In a position to supply
unlimited quantities Of merchantable
timber, namely, Russia (including Fin
land). Austria Hungary. Norway and
Sweden in Europe, and Canada and
the United States in America.
"Of these the reserves in the United
States. Russia proper and Austria
Hungary are now seriously threatened
by the rapid growth Of their own re-
Quirements consequent. on the natural
increase Of the population, while in
Norway the reaping OF the timber crop
has been so wasteful as TO bring ex.
haustion within measurable distance.
The resources of Finland are still
large, as are also those Of Sweden.
while Canada now represents the
worlds greatest reserve.

countries, with large surplus avail

Mr.. Barse, of the waldorf-Astoria,
said yesterday that more women real
ly came to drink tea. and that 1t was
a libel on the sex to say that they pre-

when the old Waldorf hotel was
opened by Mr.. Boldt sixteen years
ago" said Mr. Barse. "the palm room
was turned into tearoom to accom-
modate guests who had contracted
the tea-drinking habit in Europe.
Since that time the demand has
grown from year to year, until now
several rooms are devoted to after
noon tea. The reason why the WON

dorf is because men are not admitted
to iearoom unaccompanied by won

The Plaza. Knickerbocker and AS
tor hotels have had to enlarge their
tea room accommodation, as II has
become the fashion more this season
than before for women to give tea
parties at hotels instead of inviting
their friends TO their own homes

Finland). Sweden and Norway. From
all of these countries, with the excep-
ton Of Austria-Hungary. Great Britain
imports largely Of timber for construc-
tional purposes. and our interest in
the depletion of their forest reserves
is no mere academic one"
BY far and away the largest forest
reserve in Europe is In Russia and
Finland, which have between them
over 100000, 900 acres under timber.
Austria-Hungary comes next, but a
long way behind. with 10000. 900 acres.

France with 100000 acres. Spain

100000 acres and Italy and Bulgaria
each with 10000. 900 acres
The eyes of the world are now d.

search for future timber supplies. The
area Of land under forest In the United
States IL prodigious. The total
amounts roughly to zoe. oo0, 900 acres.
of which nearly 15o.0o0,00o acres are
