The Stranger and Small Town. Girl
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX
Copyrighted, 1913, by the star Coz

TIME menu In your home may
be the best in the world;
yet, because you are ac-
customed to it, you find a new zest
in food placed before you when
you visit other homes, or sit at
hotel tables.
The eye, the ear, the mind, the
taste all find keener pleasure
in the unaccustomed at certain
intervals, even when that which is
offered is less admirable
In an interesting letter which
discusses TO some length the fol-
lies of my own sex. the weakness
Of his. question Of interest is
propounded by a man of culture.
After reviewing the numerous
tragedies which have occurred
from time to time as the result of
infatuation OF young women in
villages and interior towns
through love affairs with
strangers, the correspondent says
Dreams of Sweetheart.
1T has always been "a great
mystery to me why the stranger
within our gates has such fasci-
mating attractions for some of our
American girls. / shall eschew
the engagements and marriages
Of American heiresses to foreign
ers. Every one knows the reasons.
But the question is subtle and
ar-reaching one. Let a total
stranger, OF good appearance and
polite address, come to town
and at once he is the favorite
with the girls at the prayer meet
ing and picnic The actor. the
drummer, the ball player, yes.
even the prize fighter in compe-
tltion for the hand and heart of
the reigning belle, will nearly al
ways outdistauce the Georges
and Charles and Willies of the
town. Is 1t hero worship, or
what is IT."
To the man or woman who un-
derstands what the imaginative
and romantic temperament means
this question would suggest its
own answer
While familiarity does not al
ways or often breed contempt
1t does destroy, as a rule, ro-
mantle illusions
The average young girI-God
bless her!--is possessed of a good
snare of sentiment and romance
in her thoughts of the lover wait
ing for her somewhere in the
world.
She invests him with the quail
ties most desirable in her estima-
ton and perhaps drawn 10 some
extent from the novels she has
read. He is a creature of her
dreams and meditations, and it is

BANKS GROWTH STEADY
Staten Island Savings Has
S4,247.972 Deposits.

Soon after the close Of the civil War
several Of the public-spirited men Of
Staten island felt that an opportunity
should Doe given to thrifty people to care
fully conserve their savings. Led by
Francis George Shaw plans for such an
institution were made.
The first plans were made i'm 1864. ana
tn, institution was called the staten
Island Savings Bank. Matters did not
ma;erialize as quickly As was expected
and il was not until June, 1861, that the
new bank opened Jas doors for the first
deposit.
The growth q, the bank has been con-
staut and az "a remarkably even percent

PORT RICHMOND VALUES
Lots, with All City Improve.
ments, May Be Had for $500.
By HOratio j. Sharrett.

Staten Island real estate will soon take
its proper position in relation to values
compared with its distance from The
downtown business district of Manhat.
tan. when it is considered that fairly
accessible lots I'm Port Richmond can be-
bought for from $50 TO 800. AMI other
lots with sewer. water. gas and side
walks can be bought for 5000. we are not
getting % per cent Of what they should
bring and what others within the same
distance get tor their lots. The writer
conducted an auction sale Of St George
property in September. 1912. and sold lots
on the terrace AT 5000 each. with all street
improvements and some of them were
sold last week for 81 9oO each. which is at
only about - per cent of their value.
The next few years will see great
changes In Staten Island and its land
values. There is and has been quite some
building done. but il is so scattered that
II does not show to advantage.
Staten Island acreage has doubled IN
value m the last ten years. and meadow
land along Staten Island Sound T. worth
ten times what II was ten years ago.
Business property along Richmond ave-

considerably The lots around Port Rich
