Must We Continually Buy or Eat?

In the June Womans Home Com
panion contributor writes an article
entitled Fit for Company" in which
she shows the curious craze for extra
vagaEce that besets most people. In
most cases, she says, people will enter
into the most absurd and unnecessary
preparations for entertaining COM
pany. Following is an extract from
her article:
II remember a conversation that L
heard in a ferry-boat coming back

Popes and Newspapers.

4 short time ago the managing edi-
tors of our newspapers demanded in
great haste a complete article on the
pope. Plus y, in fact. was for forty
eight hours passing a grave crisis. It
was believed that death was near but
very happily he has regained his
health.
In 1890, suddenly the rumor ran that
Leo xii was near death. Immediately
all our journals complied a neurological
article on the holy father, written IN
haste. But Leo XIII did not die until
thirteen years later and one could
name a Partisan journal that Kept this
article ION the marble" dhe composing
stone), that is to say in reserve, all
these thirteen years. We hope that the
biography of Plus X like that Of his
nrederpssor who died at the age or
ninety-tbree, may likewise remain on
the marble for thirteen years.-Le Cri
