Riches in Costume Exhibit.
One can only hint in passing at the
rich collections of Lambeth delft, of
Bow and Chelsea porcelain, and Of
Battersea enamel which have been
lent or presented. The museum is
rich in costumes of all periods from
James I downwards. Mr.. Joicey has
given 4S or 40 complete sets and some
admirably preserved hats of the time
of James /.
Mrs. Abbey has presented the COM
plete collection formerly owned by the
late Edwin A. Abbey, R. A, and used
by him in his studies for his histori-
cal pictures. Mention is also to be
made of the attractiveness of the cos
tune galleries.
The more sordid side of London life
is illustrated in the basement of Stat
ford house, where are collected exam
pies of the prison cells formerly ex-
listing in Old London, many records of
Newgate when hanging was the rule
for small offenses, and similar things.
The Roman boat discovered On the
site Of the new county council hall
has been accommodated with shelter
here, though it was necessary to pull
down a part of a wall to introduce it.
And, finally, as an instance of the
catholicity of the museum, it may be
added that the postchaise used by the
duke of Wellington at the battle Of
Waterloo is here preserved.

NOT LOOKING FOR ANY MORE
Youngsters Supply of Oysters on
Hand More Than Sufficient to
Meet the Demand.

A youngster whose parents had
taken him for the first time from his
inland home to the seashore became
interested in oysters. One day they
were served at table, on the half-shell,
and he asked:
Mother, what are those?"
"Oysters, dear. Raw oysters"
Can you eat them-like that?"
ooh, yes"
Can l have one?"
why, yes, If you want it."
He put the slippery thing into his
mouth, but retained it there for ex.
Fermentation. The attention of the
company meanwhile was attracted
elsewhere, and when finally the
mother turned again to her son his
face had undergone change.
would you like another oyster
dear?" she asked him.
For several seconds there was nc
reply. There seemed some difficulty
Of speech, and only after struggle
was he able to gurgle: Il don't (glub)
want this one."-Everybody's Maya

DoubIy Rewarded.

During a performance in which
appeared some years ago a very ia
nous actress who was starring in the
play lost a diamond necklace, relates
a veteran actor. She searched care
fully for it everywhere, but with no
success, and was on the verge of COL
lapse when another actor in the COM
pany found the necklace and took it
to her. She received it with great
Joy and instantly offered him a re-
ward of $50, which he politely de-
clined. The actress insisted, however,
that he accept some sort of reward.
WELL" he answered very modestly,
|"since you press me, should consider
a kiss an ample reward"
Needless to say he was paid in full.
AS soon as could get him alone l
said:
''Why were you so foolish? You're
only getting a small salary. Why
didn't you take the fifty dollars?"
"Why should l." was his cool re-

I'd kiss her before the week was up?"

WAR ADDS TO CITIZENSHIP
Large Increase Noted in Application
for Naturalization Papers In
This Country.

An increase in the citizenship of this
country was not among the many and
multifarious predictions made at the
outbreak of the European war, but
such has occurred, especially in the
anthracite regions of Pennsylvania,
according to reports from that section,
the New York Times remarks. 1t is
said that a great number of applica-
tons for first citizenship papers have
been filed since the war began by for
eigners, who for one reason or anoth-
er wish to be allied with neutral ma
ton. None of the mining companies
in the region, according to report, has
complained of the loss Of many labor
ers by the return of reservists, and
some mines are carrying more men on
their pay rolls than at this time last
year.
many different countries. One COM
pany recently reported that its aver
age number of employees last year was
1912 men, of whom 1924 were Rus
SLAMS, 2,141 Poles, 1,165 Tyroleans, S05
Austrians, ISL Lithuanians, 500 Ital-
ians, 522 Slavs, PAT Hungarians, 100
Greeks and 1924 American born or
naturaliZed.
1t is the English employees holding
the higher positions in the mines who
are going home because of the war, it
is said, and it is these who are diff
cult to replace, because most of them
hold positions requiring a miners GER
tificate, which, under the laws of Penn
sylvania, it takes man three years to
obtain. The English are going home
in greater proportion than the men of
other nations because they have more
money and can more easily reach their
country

At the Sduaq House.

Simeon Ford, hotel man and hui
morist, said in New York the other
day:
New York's hotels are the best
in the world. They put even the no
tells of London, Paris and Riviera to
blush.
In fact, after a New York hotel,
other hotels seem like the Squag
house, where a guest rang in the mid
die Of the night and said:
Landlord, the roofs leaking. I'm
drenched.'
Very good, SIR
"The landlord retired, and in a mo-
ment was back again with a large

New Niqhtrobe Sleeve,

Necks of embroidered nighGobes
are still usually edged only with small
scallops, but the sleeve pattern is
undergoing a refreshing change This
change is in the form of deep points
or scallops composed of smaller seal
lops. The points and scallops are so
deep that the sleeve at first glance
would appear slashed. Sometimes
there is an under ruftie of fine lace
which conceals the arms, which would
otherwise show through the indeHta-
tons of the deep points or scallops.
The effect of the lace is alluring and
very attractive.

After boiling salt beef leave two or
three cooked carrots in the liquor un-

salt and the liquor can be used for
soup.
Sometimes boot polish becomes
