--OSC---- COLLEGE GIRLS AND MARRIAGE.

Additionally the college girl is supposed to be little indifferent to matrimopy In the earlier days of women's colleges there was some req so1 for this point of view. Marriage statistics of leading women's colleges were collected some twelve years ago. These showed that of the alumnae of group of colleges who had been out of school twenty years only fifty-five per cent had married. As most of the marriage occur within this twenty year period, this did not seem large proportion.
 A young woman who was graudat- ed few years ago from one of the most famous of the women's colleges, said recently that there had been a

THE MOUNT VERNON FREE.

Memphis Commercial AppeaD
 Mount Vernon is one of the coun- try's prosperous amusement institu- tlons. Last year it had 129,000 visit ors who. at 15 cents a head, left $32,- 25O in the, box office. 1t. is not pleas ant to think that this historic place is being exploited like film show, but this is commercial age, you know"
 The above clipping from the Chat tanooga Times brings up a question that is often asked: Why do visitors have to pay an entrance fee to see the home of the father of his coun- try?
 A knowledge of the Mount Vernon Ladies' association makes the answer very plain.
 In 1856 Miss Pamela Cunningham of South Carolina, moved by a patri- otic desire to see the home, the tomb and the souvenirs of Washington pre- served for the veneration of future generations, formed the Mount Vern- on Ladies' association, band of women who would conscientiously at tend to this work. Each state in the Union was represented by a vice regent. All of the states, except per haps those recently admitted to state hood. are thus represented On this governing board.
 The ladies have in charge 237 of the original 5000 acres owned by Washington. and they keep it in the most perfect condition. Into the old home they have gathered all of the "oOh of0 purchase until the places is verita- ble shrine of patriotic history.
 But all of this costs money, and so the trifling sum of 9 cents is asked at the gate as an admission fee, and these proceeds, varying, of course, with the number of visitors, go to paying the expenses of the place, the hire of custodians, the repairs that become necessary and now and then the purchase of some article or manuscript that is :, authentically Washingtonian.~ There is an army of attendants, for souvenir hunters are often unscrupolous, and tetrnal vigilance is necessary to the pre- servation of the furnishings and the curious
 This entrance fee to historic shrines is the usual, not the unusual thing. Visitors to Stratford pay A cents (oneshilling) for the privilege of viewing the Shakespeare home and curious, and the fund is used for the maintenance of the place, just as it done at Mount Vernon. In Paris the BalZac home and other old literary centers are kept up in the same way, and Amsterdam fol- lows suit in charging for one of it's show places
 That the government should own these places and make them free is sometimes urged by visitors, but 1t is very Questionable whether the government would take as good care of things as the watchful private guardians. And possibly the govern ment would levy some small tax to defray the necessary expenses, thus evening up the cost of pilgrims. One thing is certain, under the present administration of Mount Vernon af- fairs the estate gets every dollar of the sightseers' smoney. and that it is wisely expended can be readily seen by any visitor who cares to cast up accounts with the associations.

The money invested in good roads is not tax but an investment that pays big returns. The annual as- sessments are termed taxes for want of better word, but in reality it is nothing more than a number of pro- perty-owners cooperating and achieving by cooperation what the individual cannot accomplish. There is no difference between property owners combining to build roads or create drainage and paying for the work in installments than there is building a, house with the aid of the and loan association. And none consider the monthly payment on his house as a tax.

TALKS ON THRIFT. THE WEEKLY SAVING PLAN.

"rhe principal of thrift is the
 foundation of character" John
 A. Dix.
 A movement has been started to get people to promise themselves to save and deposit something in the bank every week. 7
 The pledge or covenant they make with themselves is as follows:
 l WILL become a "WEEKLY SAW ER," and will deposit $............ every week for at least 52 weeks to my credit in savings account of the bank.
 OlSu0U-
 This seems like very good idea. The object of the plan is threefold-
 1. To demonstrate to depositors that in a year they can make 52 reg ular weekly deposits of at least a certain sumrno matter how small.
 ?. To show them that by adhering to their resolution for 52 weeks they form a habit through which it will be easier for them to keep on saving than to stop.
 8. To acquire cash capital with which to grasp opportunity, realize an ambition or be ready for sudden and unusual necessityA
 The advantages of Such a method of building up reserve fund are brought out, by implication, in these words of banker in the Lompoc valley of California, who says: The past two years, particularly the last one, have been what we call short" years in this valley. @ The rainfall was below the average and consequently the crops were short. For several years previous to. 1912, our crops were, exceptionally good. and everyone seemed to feel that he was making money-and that this con-

 married, Of the class of 191, 25 to
 30 were positively known to be en-
 gagged, and lot more were under
 serious suspicion.
 The college girl type is changing. Formerly it consisted mostly of young women who desired intellectu- al achievement They stayed at home studying Keats and Tennyson, while
 their sisters took moonlight walks, They were not averse to matrimony some fellow came along who could swap views intelligeltly about Browning. But such candidates were not always handy.
 Today girls college is not mere ly place of intellectual achievement. It is a center of a, very lively social life, which attracts many elements besides the bookworm and the grind. The college girl is quite as likely to be Fluffy Ruffles" as any other.
 Suitors are literally received, nnd unless the gasps in their early edu- cation are too obvious, embarrassing questions are not asked. This does not mean that the modern college girl shrinks her book work. On the contrary, she does herself the great est credit by the industry and intel ligence with which she pursues the course of study.

For forty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound. a simple remedy made from roots and herbs, has been the one effective remedy in such cases. It speedily removes the cause and restores the system to healthy nor nal condition.

Has the cost of living actually been reduced as direct or indirect result of the Underwood tariff bill? Have groceries, meats, vegetables, clothing, shoes, furniture, machinery and mis- cellaneous supplies been reduced in cost to the consumer?
