MONEY IN GOOD TASTE.
A Woman Who Capitalized Her Sense
of the Beautiful.

A Woman Who Capitalized Her Sense
of the Beautiful.
A woman's good taste is part Of her
stock In trade and could be made much
more widely remunerative than It
now is.
One would naturally suppose that the
success Of an auction depended mainly
upon the wit and skill of the auction
eer. A prominent auction house In New
York city has discovered that wom-
ans good taste In showing up things
artistically, or In their true relations.
or with a suggested use. is quite as val
liable an asset as voluble auctioneer.
For example, in a sale of oriental
goods were some handsome old bird
cages, wonderful creations In tortoise
shell, black lacquer, ivory and jade.
There were seven cages In all, and SO
spirited was the bidding that they
brought prices ranging from s410 to
500.
The thing that did 1t was not any
thing said or done by the auctioneer
but the fact that In anticipation Of the
sale there had been put In each cage a
pair of singing and twittering birds ex-
actly suited In color TO the cages in
which they were placed. Cages and
birds made symphony of color. With
out the birds in them the cages would
not have brought half the price, Who
but woman would have thought of 1t?
The same auction house has found
that a suitable and artistic arrange
ment of goods. all under the deft hand
of. its woman specialist adds many
dollars to tho sales.-Leslie's.

Life Burden.
When Anna Karenina" began to
come out in the monthly Russki west
nix, writes Count Ilya Tolstoy In his
"Reminiscences of Tolstoy," long gal
ley proofs were posted to my father
and be looked them through and cor
rected them.
At first he would mark the margins
with the ordinary typographical signs,
letters omitted, marks of punctuation
and SO on; then he would change in
diyidual words, and then whole SEN
tences. That would be followed by
erasures and additions until the proof
sheets became mass of patches that
was perfectly black In places. 1t was
impossible to send them back as they
stood, because no one except my mother
could make head or tail of the tangle
of signs, transpositions and erasures.
My mother would sit up all night copy
ing the whole thing out afresh.
In the morning the pages lay ON her
table, neatly piled together, and cover
ed with her fine, clear handwriting.
Everything would be ready SO that
when Lyovotchka came down he could
send the proof sheets off by post. My
father would carry them to his study
to have "one last look" and by even
ing the sheets were all written over
and messed up once more.
"Sonya, my dear, am very sorry, but
I've spoilt oil your work again;
promise l won't do 1t any more" he
would say, showing her the passages
he had mixed over, with guilty air.
Wen send them of tomorrow with
out fail" But that tomorrow was
often put of for weeks, or even for
months.
There's just one bit / want to look
through again." my father would say,
but he would get carried away and re-
write 1t all afresh.1 There were even
occasions when, after he had posted
the proofs, my father corrected them
by telegraph the next day.
Several times, in consequence of
these corrections, the printing of the
novel In the Russki Vyestnlk was inter-
rupted, and sometimes it did not come
out for months together.

IDAHO BANKS NO LOSERS
Not Affected by Drop in Foreign

Fluctuatlon OF foreign currency
values has had and will have no
effect on Idaho financial and banking
interests, is the opinion OF State
Bank Examiner Hit, He explained
that banks here have no occasion 10

Mr.. Hit was asked IL some OF the
horse dealers who have been selling
remounis to European governments
might not have lost through the de-
probation OF foreign currency values.
He replied that they have not.
"As understand It.n said Mr.. TIllt,A
''the European officers who have
come to the UnIted States to buy
horses have brought money with
them, deposited 1t Ia American banks
and checked out on the deposits.
'IL may be-" he continued, "that

Idaho has law which permits the

the masses want OF their officials Is

and their enforcement. People are
growing to have less respect for all

EARLY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

Following is another contribution to
the Consumers League early Christ
mas shopping essay contest:
There are many reasons that we
could offer for early shopping. Among
the principal ones are: First, that we
have more time early, as the nearer il
comes to the holidays there are more
important duties 10 perform.
Early in the season the stores have
a full and complete stock OF goods to
select from. The salespeople have
more time to assist us in making our
selections, ana usually they are will
ing and anxious to show their goods
and explain their merits. Later, when
the stock is lower and culled over, and
the salesDeople are tired and fatigued
from the extra work caused by the
holiday trade, we cannot expect the
same courteous treatment from them,
neither can we expect TO get the value
for our money.
We should consider also the well
fare of the merchant and bis assist
ants and try, to shop early and avoid
the necessity Of keeping the stores
open evenings, so as to give the
salespeople the same time for rest that
we would like TO have ourselves. There
is a demand for shorter hours Of la
Dor in all branches of trade. so let us
be as kind to, the clerks and sales
people as we are to the common la
borer and give them shorter hours OF
toll. Let the stores be closed even
ings; give the salespeople a chance to
call the evenings their own 10 spend
as they please. at home or with their
friends.
There is saying that "The early
bird catches the worm" The early

"Shop early"
"Why, we should finish our Christ
mas shopping by the Goth of Decem-
ber."
do your shopping by the 20th." is
just now the cry Of comparative few,
and is needed likewise by few. Why
is il that people are so narrow-mindcd
and selfish that they think OF no one
but themselves? There are thousands
OF little reasons and many large ones
why we should join the side Of the
criers.
One big reason is the shop girl.
Christmas is the time when everyone
should be happy and smiling and inn
part joy to others, yet think Of the girl
who waits on you. The last few
days before Christmas you are in a
hurry and very excited, because you
have started to shop so late that it is
impossible to think OF everything at
once and you are irritated because the
girl is slow or uninterested in what
you are buying. DO you realize that
thousands of people hurry into stores
through the day and expect to be
waited on Immediately, which is inn
possible, as others have come before
them with the same idea and that the
cashier has money coming in to be
changed at the rate of five times the
usual speed Of ordinary days? Then
because you are impatient you say
something unkind to the blameless
girl, who naturally feels hurt.
After a week Of this rush, how do
you suppose the shop girls feel on
Christmas Day? Happy, fresh. merry,
glad that it is Christmas again!
Neverl She is tired. her back aches
her mind is full of the unkind words
flung at her during the past week
