following an edict that has been sent
out in several American cities ordering
the remova of mirrors from the ele-

assert that nearly every woman who
enters the elevators becomes so en-

glasses that she forgets at what floor

to business and less addicted to the

Katherine clemmons Gould, who
was separated from her husband.
Howard Gould, by a decree of the SUI
preme court. has started an action
against him in the same court that is
to be a test case.
Mrs. Gould explains in her com.
plant that Mr.. Gould has an income
of more than 500, 900 a and that
prior to the separation. in 1909, she
was entitled to have all bills for ne
cessities paid by her husband. From
December 1, 1906, to January 10. 1907.
she received necessary goods from the
Lichtenstein Millinery company valued
at $3.50.
After her separation this company
sued and got judgment against her for
s3.314. The appellate division of the
supreme court sustained this judgment
and Mrs: Gould compromised for
$4,000. She has nov sued MI. Gould
for this $1,000.
If the court upholds this contention,
she may sue to other similar
judgments. She is at present receiving
$3.50 a ear alimony.
Kitty Gordon, who appeared on the
passenger list Of the Mauretania as
the Hon. Mrs. Beresford. arrived in
New York on Friday and made the
announcement that she had made 1t
up" with her husband and that every
thing was very nice now. She brought
with her a seventeen-pound (avoirdu-
pois) dress made of gold spangles,
which nearly staggered the customs
inspector who examined her baggage.
She was very interested in the new
fashion of side whiskers that is the
vogue now among the men in Europe.
She said. the men Of America are too
sensible to wear them.
But what about the men in Eng
land ?" she was asked.

"Oh! they have nothing else to do.'
she replied.

While he president graciously en-
tertained his; guests in, Washington
this week, Mrs. Taft was on her way
to meet him in New York. going from
Beverly on the presidents yacht, the
Mayiower. Mrs. Taft arrived in New
YORK on Thursday morning. and that
day lunched at the Knickerbocker ho-
tel. accompanied by her sister, Mrs.
Laughlin. and Mr. and Mrs. Hujo de
Fritz. the latter formerly Miss Har-
riet Anderson. a niece Of Mrs. Taft.
Mrs. Tafts party derived much amuse-
ment from the fact that except for a
few Of their Washington friends. their
identity, as far as the employees and
the guests Of the hotel were %concern-
ed. remained unknown.
Mrs. Taft greatly enjoys going about
in a purely informal and unoficial
manner. and many a shop girl in
Washington has been made happy by
being called upon to wait upon a
understanding. quietly dressed gen.
enough in itself to give pleasure to any
shop girl, but whose attractiveness
was doubly increased when. after the
conclusion Of her purchases. this SIM
ply attired woman would give her
name and address as: Mrs. Taft, the
white house."
1t is a popularity of Mrs. Taft's that,
in shopping, she never announces her.
self until after she has made her pur-
chases. She buys what she wants and
never questions the price. When she
has made her selections she gives her
name. and many a shop girl has been
dumbfounded to learn that she has
had such an easy and pleasant time
waiting on the first lady of the land"

tered upon her seventy-ifth year Sep
TENDER 2, held a large public recep-
ton In honor Of the anniversary.
Mrs. Bonsis, or former Queen Liliuo-
kalani, as she is more Familiarity
known. is enjoying a hearty old age
at her home in Honolulu. She still
takes pleasure in her music, 1t is said.
She has composed a number Of songs,
for which words have been written in
Hawaiian. and every day the old lady
plays them over. In spite of her ad-
vanced age her appetite IL almost as
great as ever, and her majesty is In
creasing In c~orpulence.
1t is recalled that in 1904, when she
was stopping at a hotel in st. Louis.
she was unable to get through the
door leading to the dining room, and
that in anger she retired to her room
and had a waiter struggle up the stairs
each day with an overloaded tray Of
h earth's bounties.

Dentistry On Old Art.

Dentistry an Old Art.
Dental therapeutics dates from a
very remote epoch. 1t Is not known
when this art commenced. but 1t Is
we'll known that the Egyptians prac-
ticed 1t to a considerable extent.
On a papyrus scroll estimated to
date back $500 years before Christ.
which was found buried at the feet
of the god Anubis. there We're found
written remedies against painful mo-
lars and a way to alleviate other trou-
bles of the teeth by means of pulver-
ICED drugs. The art of filling" is
very remote. Egyptian mummies
have been found with molar cavities
very carefully closed. Others have ar
fetal teeth which show that in very
ancient times this dental process was
known. The Chinese cured toothache
200 years before our era. One Of
their methods was to put iron rust in
the cavities.

LAST OF THE OLD GUARD
Cullom Retlres From Senate Without
Regret.

Washington, April Ex-senator
Shelby M. Cullom of Illinois will
leave Congress after nearly fifty
years of continuous service without
regret on his own account or bitter
ness toward any man. The vener.
able Illinois Republican will end
twenty-nine years Of service in the
Senate poorer man than when he
took his seat in that body. By some
it is said that the Illinois Senator is
almost entirely dependent on his
salary.
In acknowledging today his defeat
in the Illinois primaries Senator
Cullom appeared the most cheerful
loser imaginable. Senators crowded
around his seat in the Senate to ex-
press their regret, but he smiled and
assured them it was all for the best.
Senator Cullom is one of the best
loved men in the Senate and his
defeat was taken to heart by the EN-
ployees. His retirement will just
about be the end Of the so-called old
guard in the Senate. First Aldrich
went. then Hale of Maine, death
claimed Elkins of West Virginia and
Frye of Maine, and now Cullom OF
Illinois goes. These great changes
in the Senate have occurred within a
year
