The expenses OF delivery of articles OF
food by the dealer to the consumer are an
important consideration in the cost OF
living. IL the state food investigating
committee can throw any clear light on
the subject or hold out any hope of relief
1t Will perform an important service
Whether il Is due to the growth of com
petition among dealers for customers
OF eneFs! a1Ao1ss housewives, the old
fashioned market basket has practically
been banished from use. The telephone
may have something TO do with it: il is
so easy to call up the butcher. the baker,
the grocer and give orders for the days
supplies And il the butcher and the
grocer deliver the goods. naturally they
put the actual expense and something
more in the bill.
Still. there Is always one remedy and
no good reason why II should not be tried
in practice. II the dealer finds the cost
OF delivery high and the consumer finds IL
still higher, why not compromise py es-
tablishing a lower scale of prices for
those who carry their own parcels home?
bargain sales. why will they not save
their odd pennies at the grocer's by the
expenditure Of little physical effort !?
Have the retail dealers ever considered
the matter seriously, or have they found
an opportunity for increased profit in
studying the ease and convenience OF
their customers and fixing their prices SO
high as more than to cover all the trouble
they take TO please?

Saving From the Slums.
From the Philadelphia Press


Several days ago a St. Louis dispatch
to the Press told of the undertaking OF
an unusual experiment in sociolog,
which is likely to attract considerable at
tention II it is carried on according to
the plans made. 1t is not a movement bv
an organizations; 1t Is the effort of a
single individual, a ST. Louis woman OF
means already prominent as a charity
worker. The plan, Is to take a certain
number Of little girls from their slualid
homes in the worst section Of the SUM
districts Of the city and to bring them
for one Gay each week into the home OF
the woman who has begun this work.
There under intelligent guidance and
careful observation they are to be en-
couraged TO develop whatever talents
they may possess. They are to be
taught sewing and dressmalling in any
event, and started in any other dircc-
ton which talent may suggest. There
is an intention to encourage friendly
rivalry and bestow rewards for good re-
suits.
This Is practical movement and SEEM
ingly capable of accomplishing much
good. The idea is TO develop the individ-
ual according to inciina tion afordins
particular instruction along whatever
lire special aptitude may be shown. be-
Ieving this will be an improvement on
the methods of treating that type OF girls
as class. There are Few girls out OF

every where Rare talents may be and

Bombay's Animal Hospital.

From Every Living Creature
In far-off Bombay is probably the
largest and most elaborate hospital for
animals IN the world. 1t has both its
inpatients and its outpatients. and it
ministers TO animals of all kinds as care
fully as human beings are administered
To III the hospitals OF the west.
over ..G0o animals are taken into the
hospital e.ch year, and Well on to 1900
are treated outpatients. In all there
are some forty buildings. large and
small connected with the hospital
and the architectural structure and the
appointments of some of them are in
deed superior 10 those of many OF our
regular hospitals.
Tins splendid hospital for animals was
founded by a native Indian, Parsee
merchant. Sir Dinshaw Nanockjee Petit.
Not only domestic animals of every
kind are treated and cared fer In it, but
the animals OF the jungle and the wild
birds which are found wounded or SUI
fering from any cause are taken to 1t
and nursed back 10 health and then set
free again.

SOME NOTABLE TROUSERS.
Sartorial Survey Dating Back to the
Time of the Great Napoleon.

fh:lip Haze. IL Boston Herald.
The loose trousers Of the elephant seen
from hellind. especially as he enters a
covered bridge, remind US OF a fashion
note published a fortnight ago in London.
Trousers are to be a little shorter, in
order to show more of the SOCK And
this in turn recalls the fact that Mr..
Franz Won Vecsey, the fiddler. who APP
peared here several years ago as an in
FAINT phenomenon. now wears his hair
short and has grown mustache, so that
he is considered BY palpitating women in
London as almost too ordinary" They
have been writing letters to him bessec.i-
ing him to let his hair grow. to shave his
upper lip and. above all things, to wear
emotional socks.
Two composers were famous for wear
ing their trousers at half mast-Jonanncs
Brahms and Cesar Tranck-yet there has
long been a prejudice against trousers 50
short that there is need Of lump o.
sugar to coax them down. And men who
are careless in this matter are also care
less as to their socks, their color. size
and length of servitude. 1t has been held

man should first of all reach from his
waist TO the ground. 1t is equally inlpo--
tant that his trousers. whether they be
skin tight or Tapping like a flag N a
length To shorten them merely for the
sake of showing shocks is a passing fancy
that will not endure. Socks are. after all,
only secondary affair, whether they be
emotiona! or prosaic. States have been
saved without them.
A self-respecting man should be fussy
about his trousers. The great Napole on
