type of Washington society woman
that TO have one intimate that an invi-
tation to the white house or to an eX-
elusive little affair at the home of a
cabinet officer would mean much to
her. AS one woman put it, carefully
adjusting her lOrgnette. i've bean"
bean, mind you, not been-"IVe
bean in smart society for a great many
yehS-yes, great many yehs, and
reilly, reilly, / simply cawn't give any
time to the official set"
You catch the distinction. The Of
fetal set is here by virtue of political
recognition and is constantly shiftinS
but people in smart society are there
because they have bean" there al
ways.
The diplomatic circle. of course.
forms one distinct social set but there
are gradations even within that. AS |
understand it-or rather, as l over
heard a paunchy-cheeked tiaraed old
dowager explaining one night, the wife
of one of the most prominent foreign
diplomats in Washington does not reaI>
ly belong at all. Some one asked the
dowager why not.
"Oh, she just simply doesn't" was
the reply. Look at her waist line"
And speaking of capital society a
woman who has been mixed up in IT
for years, but who doesn't take it
seriously, was telling me the other day
that you can tell exactly the grade of
society TO which a woman belongs just
by her small talk. She divides society
into five grades. The first or lowest
is made up, she says, of those women
who talk about the things they have
tried to cook and the high cost there
of. Passing on TO the next grade we
find women who do not cook them
selves, but talk about their help, what
trouble they have getting maids that
will set the table properly and all
that. The next group takes in women
who think il is a bit Grass to discuss
the servant problem for small talk,
but confine themselves to conversation
about their children. Then there is
the Europe group-made up not OF
Europeans, but of people who have
been to Europe once or twice and use
Europe as a basis of their light con-
versation. The last and highest grade
of society is confined to those who have
become blase on Europe and never
mention it, but stick closely TO such
topics as Newport and polo. When
one can talk about practically nothing
except polo and do it gracefully. then.
so I am informed, one really belongs.

Retained Their womanIy Instinct

(F1Sher, III, RepOrter)
The two girls are half witted and
constantly talking about getting mar
ried.
AN Evansville girl laughed herself
to death at a BARRIERS joke told sec
ond hand. We shudder at what she
might have done had she heard the
barber tell it.
THE customs of different nations
are interesting. In Mexico they have
restaurants and cantinas, and in this
country We have chop sueys and sa-
looms.

Social Ethics In Kansas.

(Sedgewick, Kas., Photography
You seldom enter "A home without
having been invited. When you do it
is because the home has been made
by newcomers and you wish to show
a friendly interest; or you have gone
TO collect bill from the resident who
lodges you on the street.
NOW who will put up a brown
front?
A WOMAN has just died in Eng
land who when she was a girl, wove
yards and yards of linen so fine it
could be run through a finger ring

Her majesty was greatly pleased and

adopted the suggestion of the ring and
gave one to her admiring subject.

at a price that would have allowed q
good profit. In town her whole thought
was how to economic and get along on
our fixed income. Since coming to the
country her mind has been turned to the
question of increasing our income, and
she shows a surprising ability to see
profits in unsupported places.
For example. since we got the COW she
has found customer in town for two
pounds of unsalted butter a week, the
customer gladly paying so cents pound
for it. It's almost clear profit. as we
have more cream than we could use
otherwise. I bought a small rotary churn
and. as she churns twice a week. to make
butter for our own table. there Is no
extra work involved. Jane thinks it would
pay us to buy another COW, but 1 don't
know what we would do with another
one, unless we could buy a self-mflker.
Milking one COW twice a day Is plenty
for me- thank you.
Jane Is now talking of hiring a colored
woman to do her homework. SO that
she will have more time for her money
making schemes. and 1 have enough con-
fidence in her business ability to believe
she would make 1t pay. The boys. too.
are busy with plans for making money
after school ends next week. 1 am get
ting ambitious to own real farm and
give up office work. but I reckon I'd bet
ter wait to see how some of our schemes
pan out. E. S. M.

GOOD GOLF MATCHES.
J. H. Clapp, Chevy Chase, Playing
Well at MARYLAND Country Club.

BALTIMORE, Md, May 30.-In one of
the most exciting golf matches ever
staged at the Maryland Country Club. r.
Lee Slingluff defeated r. H. Prttchett
after % holes had been played in the
second round of the elimination match
play on the clubs links yesterday after
noon.
A gallery of nearly 100 friends and ad-
nirers which followed the golfers as they
played through the additional four holes,
nut them on edge. Pritchett's long putt
for the nineteenth hole caused a large
easp to go up. and when Slinglufs long
drive for the twenty-second hole landed
on the green, practically deciding the
struggle, a generous round of applause
was given for both victor and van
pushed.
Aside from the Slingluff-Pritchett
match, which was in the second sixteen.
interest centered In the play OF THOMAS
w. Sasscer medal winner in the qualify
ing rounds play Thursday, and J. IL.
CIapp of Chevy Chase, both in the first
sixteen. Sasscer won his first match
handily from William G.. Cooper, 4 up
and to go, in the mornings play, and
repeated his victory over H. S. Duker in
the afternoon. He was forced to extend
himself against Duker covering the
course in II, which is one worse than his
record.
Clamp, who is one of the three out-of-
town entries covered himself with glory
taking two hard-fought matches from L.
D. Nelson and E. E. Johnston, both by
the score of 9 up and l to play. His form
was much improved over that Of the
and Sasscer will meet in the finals this
afternoon, although E. e. Jackson and
e. L. Bartlett, who qualified for the semi
finals, may upset all calculations.

MISS HYDE CAPTURES
METROPOLITAN TITLE

ORANGE. N. j., May 3O.-After five
days of brilliant play on the links of the
Essex County Country Club Miss Lillian
B. Hyde of the South Shore Field Club
L. l.. yesterday won the womens metro
puolitan golf title and trophy. scoring her
third victory in this event in the last five
years. She defeated another former
title-holder. Miss Georgianna NJ. Bishop
of Brooklawn, Conn, by . up and Z to
play.
Miss Bishop, who at one time held the
national championship, was unable to
cope with her opponents game, which
was almost faulteSS. She succeeded in
halving only two of the eleven holes
which were played in the match.
The two finalists had distinguished
themselves from the outset of the tourna-
ment, but every day Miss Hyde's per-
Torrance was just shade better than
that of the Connecticut girl. After the
match Miss Hyde played out the bye
holes for an approximate card of 81, just
eight strokes better than her qualifying
score which won the gold medal last
Monday. The cards:

Hawk Takes Daily Toll.

Some animal-a rat. we suppose-tooA
six chickens right out from under the
mother hen one night and killed them
and there is a hawk that comes almost
every day and carries off a chicken
that is, he comes every day but Sunday.
I'm sure 1t is an uncanny wisdom rather
than any religious sentiment that in
duces him to take the one day a week
off. l borrowed a shotgun and spent
several Sundays watching for a chance
to get a crack at him. but he never
came near. And Monday mornings he
would be eating chicken before l was
half way to the station. He ignored
Jane utterly and treated with contempt
the efforts of Jim and Ned to bring
him down with their air rifles. And
yet they say animals and birds have no
powers of reasoning.
The 1872 chickens left out of our three
incubator matches and the several
f1ocks brought off by hens stand US to-
day, according to James figures. a
trifle more than % cents each, without
counting the feed they have eaten. Nor
does 1t make any allowance for de-
probation on our equipment, such as
incubator. hover. etc. The result was
obtained simply by adding the cost of
oil for the incubator and brooder to
