Total reductions. ..... 4,781 900
In this connection it should be re-
membered that further veto of $495,-
900 made by the governor-for the re-
construction and maintenance of the
Cheney normal school-was passed by
the legislature. Had this veto been
sustained the total amount Of reduc-
tions to his credit would have been $5,-
276,OOO ra little more than 5h mills.
The governors fight with the legis-
1ature was just the beginning Of his
program of economy, however. April
8 he expects to start on trip around
the state to every state institution
when he will inaugurate an innova-
tion in the management of the state
government: the operation of these
institutions on less money than the leg
1slature appropriated. 1t has been
quite the custom for all the institu-
tions in the past to spend every cent
which the legislature allotted them,
then to call loudly for more, pointing
out in carefully drawn and voluminous
reports how the efficiency of the es-
tablishment and the welfare of the IN
mates demanded much larger appro-
priations for the years following.
Governor Lister expressed his idea
of running a state institution, how
ever, when he said during the legisla-
tive session: Everybody who has
home wishes they had an extra room,
or a new parlor rug, or q piano, or
something else, but they can get along
without it when they cant afford It."
Consequently he figures the state In
stitutions and the state itself can get
along without lot of things which
would be mighty nice to have. II the
state could afford them, and 1t Is this
idea of economy he hopes to instill
into those in charge of the state In
stitutions during this coming trip.

CHAPTER XXI.
Tell Me. Tell Il All.


The day was a gray one, the first
of the kind in weeks. AS Doris
stepped into the room where Oswald
sat. she felt how much a ray of sun
shine would have encouraged her and
yet how truly these leaden skies and
this dismal atmosphere expressed the
gloom which soon must fall upon this
hopeful, smiling man.
Advancing slowly, and not answer
ing because she did not hear some
casual remark Of his, she took her
stand by his side and then slowly and
with her eyes on his face, sank down
upon her knees. still without speak

He met her at Lenox"
The name produced It's effect. He
stared, made an effort to think, re-
peated Lenox over to himself; then
suddenly lost his hold upon the idea
which that word suggested. struggled
again for 1t, seized it in an instant OF
madness and shouted out:
Yes, yes, I remember. I sent him
there" and paused. his mind blank
again.
Poor Doris, frightened to her very
soul, looked blindly about for help;
but she did not quit his side; she did
not dare to. for his lips had re-
opened; the continuity of his thoughts
had returned; he was going to speak
Il sent him there" The words
came in q sort OF shout. II was so
hungry to hear of her and thought
he might mention her in his letter
Insanel InsaneI He saw her and
What's that you said about his loving

he's not of the loving sort. They've
deceived you with strange tales

may have admired her, but loved hei

speoted my claims"
-He did not know them"
A laugh; a laugh which paled Doris
cheek; then his tones grew even
again, memory came back and he NUT
tered family:
That ia true. I said nothing to
him. He had the right to court her
and he did, you say; wrote to her;
imposed himself upon her, drove her

He wrote her a letter: It fright

Doris paused; the sentence hung
suspended. She had heard step

stood, watching him go till he saw his
hand fall on the knob when he quietly
prevented his exit by saying:

cealed. How soon does the doctor
think my brother can bear these in
evitable revelations"
He said this morning that If his
patient were as well tomorrow as his
present condition gives promise of, he
might be told I'm another week"
Orlando bowed his appreciation of
this fact, but added quickly:

Mr.. Challoner looked up, surprised
at the feeling with which this request

FRENCH WOMANS YEARLY DRESS BILL $4,000

the following list Of requirements In
order to be above criticism. Every
twelve-month she must buy half
dozen tailor made costumes, costing
on an average of 800 each; ten eve
ming gowns, ranging from 5000 to $780,
as well as three riding and sport cos
tunes, costing $50 apiece. Regarding
furs, it appears that one must pos
sess a sable coat, costing between
$4,000 and $4,000, cloaks of chinchilla
and ermine at $1,400 each, as well as
muffs and stoles to match, priced
about $1,000 Any fashionable mon
dame must also buy half dozen hats
monthly, varying from $50 to 5000,
which with their costly trimmings
bring the hat total up to $4,000. The
linen is separate, the Individual
pieces of which cost from SO to 500
each, comprising about $500, and run
ming up to a total of $500 in all. The
elegante apparently requires "a pairs
of shoes, which cost at a minimum OF
SIS, with three pairs of buckles at
SIS. These will total to over 5000
and must be accompanied by S4OO
worth of stockings. Dix pairs OF
corsets, at $500, must be bobGht an
nually. The total of these figures
reaches $4,000, but as new furs are
not needed every year a reduction of
$4,000 is made from the annual ex-
penditure, making it a mere $4,000
per annum. How many women will

of expenditure it would be difficult to
say, but certainly most of us could
manage very comfortably on consider
