But yesterday there was no po- litical discussion and the members of the club gave themselves up to the enjoyment of the good things on the menu and between courses sat around under the trees.
 Steaks. clam chowder, cucumbers, tomatoes, spring onions and radishes were served from 10:30 to 1 o'clock The sheep roast which was cooked by Senator John M. O'Conneu was served at ;3:s0 o'clock.

NEW YORK'S TOP RENTAL
 $6O PER SQUARE FOOT.

New York, Aug. 1.-Approximate1y 100 per cent, Increase is recorded in a lease just closed for a small store in the twenty-hve-story office structure which August Heckscher is about to complete at the southeast corner of Madison Avenue and -42d Street, diag- onally opposite the Grand Central Ter mirlal. rate of $60 square foot is established by the lease, which is per- haps the highest rate of rental secur- ed by the property owner in the city.
 The United Cigar Stores Company, which secured this location did so after four years of experience, during which it became convinced that it was the best paying place of any the company had in Greater New York city. =,
 In November, 1912, the company rented the corner space, comprising 375 square feet at rental of $10,000 a year, or about $27 a square foot from Walter J. Saloman who, rented the entire premises from the F'leiss estate under a twenty-one-year lease. Sub sequently, August Heckscher- bought this leasehold as we'll as adjoining realty to make a site for. the present structure, which will be ready for use in few weeks.
 The new lease, negotiated direct be- tweeen, MT. Heckscher and the United Cigar Stores, Company, is said to ap- proximate a.rate of $60 a square foot and holds good for thirteen years to come, the life of the instrument which required several weeks for the princi- pals to reach the remarkable terms it records The rental of the space in the old building was remarkable as an instance of the changed character and higher desirabi1ity for business of the Grand Central Terminal section now regarded by experts as the next best investment properly in New York city outside of the financial district, in that the store was below grade several steps, a feature ordinarily reducing the value of store.
 The greatly increased rental, more Ifhan double that paid for high-priced corner stores in the Greeley Square district, just east of the Pennsylvania terminal, is but one of several recent developments ref1ecting the increasing business of the grand Central Zone. Brokers still re call the purchase by Henry Morgenthau of the property at 13 East 42d Street, establishing a sell ing rate for land of $135 a square foot paid, subject to leases held by the Uni ted Cigar Stores Company and the lManhattan Hotel Company, which was recently sold to John McE. Bowman. Sof the Biltmore.

SURVIVAL OF THE F,ITTEST.'

A proprietary medicine like every thing else that comes before the pub lie has to prove its merit. It has to meet competition. The law of the Survival of the Fittest" applies to this as to other things.
