six francs a kilO, and good quality is
hard to find, even at that fabulous
sum. Horse meat, which is rarely
eaten even in the poorer districts, has
advanced 20 per cent 10 two francs
and Il half kilO. The usual sausages,
pates, and other cOncOctiOns made
from meat fragments are double the
old marks on an average.
Rabbits-always French staple
have advanced 30 per cent. and chick
ems, ducks, geese, and turkeys are
double. A three-pOund roasting chick
en-brOillng is unknown here-will
cost 10 to IS francs.
Eggs, strictly fresh, cost to 8
sous apiece, and since there is no
cold storage in France the cheap
er grades are likely to be strong
and cost or sous each.
Fish has advanced in price and
achieved twO-day-aweek popular
ity. because on Mondays and Tuesdays
no meat can be served in restaurants,
and all butcher shops are closed.
Cheeses have advanced sharply due
to the shortage of milk, and the
wonderful petit Swisse." which was
3 sous before the war, is 6 or sous
today. Brie, Camembert and other
selected cheeses have doubled. Milk
is up to 8, 10 and IL sous litre. but
it is a heavier, creamier milk than
one usually finds in New York
dairies.
Potatoes are sold by weight, and
have doubled and trebled in price,
fetching - to 1S sous a kilO at this
time, although when the bulk of the
new crop is in it will probably be re-
duced. Beans in all their varieties
vie with potatoes as the popular vege-
table, and scissors, green beans,
string beans, white beans and lima
beans are hard to get and have ad-
vanced 80 to 40 per cent. Fresh to-
matOes can be purchased from huck-
sters on the street at u cents

Due to High Wages.

Silk underwear, night gowns and
boudoir robes have advanced sharply.
as before the war these articles could
be bought in Paris much cheaper than
in New York. To-day, owing TO the
increased wages paid to the girls who
do the handwork, and because of the
advanced quotation for raw silk, prices
are up third.
Women's tailored suits are also up,
and it is pretty poor garment that
can be bought for less than POO francs
(S40) ready made. The increased price
for wool is given as the reason for this
sharp advance. although the strin-
gency in the dye market is another
cause.
Mems suits are $50 francs and up
for anything worth having, whereas
even a year ago three-piece outfit
could be purchased for 120 francs.
Mems tailOrs are bending all their
energies to making uniforms and their
cutters have almost forgotten how
to make civilian clothes. Before
the war a good suit of clothes for a
man could be picled up for 80 to 80
francs.
Increased cost of gasoline and tires
has caused a % per cent advance in
taxicab rates. But the increase in
tips is where the big advance has
come. No chauffeur is satisfied with
10 or Is per cent of the amount regis
tered. He won't accept less than 30
centime piece, even for short ride
which registers say, franc % CEN
times. Usually he expects the change
out of 2 francs 20 centimes for such
a haul. Horse cabs cost as much as
automobiles, and the horses are so
decrepit that one only rides in them
for amusement, not really to get any
where.
Tobacco prices have been advanced
three times since the war by the
French government.
Drinks of all kinds have advanced
steadily. Whisky and soda costs
cents-almOst everywhere
that 1t Is served.

ouatermain's Model.

If, in drawing Allan Quatermain, Sir
Rider Haggard took as his model Cap
tain Selous, he at least did justice to
one of the mighty hunters most
marked traits. Captain Selous was
mOdesty personified, and could seldom
be induced to talk even impersonally
of his adventures. Quatermain always
processes, in moments of emergency,
to be in state of pitiable fear; but,
of course, nobody believes him, and
when the time for action comes he
bears himself as a hero. Among the
natives of Africa Captain Selous was
known as "the man who never told
lie." His fictlonal counterpart bears
the title Macumazaha, which is the
kaffir equivalent for "the man who
gets up in the middle of the night"

/ TO tell where she lived. She was
passed from officer to officer along the
beats until she arrived safely home,
but minus Freckles.
Kitty was severely scolded by Mar
cia and mOurned over her lost doll all
the rest of the week. She and Marcia
were walking down the street one day
when a bright-faced urchin dashed up
to them.
"Hey, Kitty! Hey, Miss Mason! I
saw your lost dolly today"
"Oh, where? where?" pleaded Kitty,
eagerly.
"Over beyond the branch creek.
You know where the big schoolhouse
is on Seventh street? Well, near there
is vacant square. They're using it
for the scholars to raise garden stuff.

the middle of one of the little garden

"Why! What fo:T questioned Kit
ty.
"Scarecrow. Oh, I'm sure it was
Fretkles. I'd know that checkered
dress OF hers anywhere"
"Oh, sister," voiced Kitty, anxiOusly.
won't you take me to where Alan
says he saw Freckles? Maybe we can
get her back"
Marcia consented, and they trav-
ersed The mile to the little bridge. 1t
was late In the afternoon, after school
hours, and, sure enough, there was
the vacant square Alan had described.
1t was surrounded by high fence.
Inside half a hundred lads, chattering
and industrious, were pottering about
vegetable beds innumerable. "CIass
A." one placard announced, owned
20-fOOt square potato patch. "Class B"
had some fine carrots showing thriving
green sprouts, and so on over the en-
tire space, well kept, pleasing to the
sight and objects of pride to the we
nile enemies of high price Of living.
Marcia viewed the layout with inter-
est. Kitty cast her active glance over
the broad eYpanse with eagerness. She
uttered a sudden cry of delight.
"Oh, sister!" she said, "loOk. there is
Frecklesr'
It was, indeed, the lost doll, attached
to an eight-fOOt pole in the center of
one of the baby farms. The urchin
who had found and then appropriated
1t, had strung from its neck dozen
or more strips Of paper, and these flut-
tcring out in the breeze were stream
ers well adapted to scare away thiev-
ing crows or blackbirds.
'Little boy" spoke Marcia through
the high palings to the nearest work.
er within the inclOsure, "that doll over
yOnder belongs to my little sister
here"
"Yes'm," nodded the boy politely.
"JOe Bevans said he found it. If you
60 around to the gate on the other side
you'll find Mr.. TrescOtt, who is our
boss. Tell him. There he is, Just
leaving. See, the man In the light
suit. You can catch him by going over
to the bridge. That's his way home"

the bridge. counting upon heading Off

It was a wonderful doll, at least so
the homemade production of Sister
Marcia appeared to tiny Kitty Mason.
1t was a big doll, and n nelghbor had
mended up an old doll buggy, and
Kitty was enabled TO give Freckles, as
she called her, an airing without tir-
ing her little mOtherly arms.
They were poor, the Masons, and
Marcia was their sole support at the
present time, her father having been
laid up for six months, the result OF
an accident at the plant where he
worked, and cOnvalescing very slowly.
Kitty was a good child and was con-
tent to stay around home most of the
time, Freckles engrossing her atten-
tiOn. Freckles was lying supposedly
asleep on, a garden bench one after
noon, when a trumpet blast aroused
Kitty.
"Oh, Freckles, wake up!" cried
Kitty eagerly. "Muslc 1t must be
a circus parade"
Forthwith Kitty seized Freckles un-
tremendously by the arm and dragged
her by her side to the street. The
circus procession appeared in its full
glory of blare, tinsel and prancing
steeds. Kitty, dazzled, carried out C
herself, kept pace with 1t for more
than mile, Jagged behind, and then,
fOOtsOre and worn out, she sat down

went to sleep. Kitty awOke in alright.
Everything was strange to her. All
unheeded, Freckles had slipped to the
sidewalk and lay neglected. Kitty be-
gan to cry. She wandered a square
or two and her sObbing and dreadflled
face attracted the attention of police
man. He took her in his brawny arms
and sOothed her. Then, as she quiet
ed down, Kitty was coherent enough

the gentleman designated as "the
boss" She saw him coming and drew
back with Kitty into the shndOw OF
the bridge. II was getting on towards
dusk, but Marcia could make out the
person pointed out to her lining the
fence and approaching in her dlrec-
ton. She learned later that he was
Mr. Bryce TrescOtt, young man OF
means who had taken pleasure IN
fitting out schoolchlIdren "to do their
bit" for their country and had borne
all the expense of the baby farms.
His fine face and clear, smiling eyes
attracted her us he came near. she
was almost abashed, but she sum
mOned her courage for the sake OF
little Kitty, urgently whispering: "Tell
him, sister. Oh, please get me back
Freckes right now" SO Marcia
stepped before him. He looked sur
prised and removed his hat. Then
he became interested MS Kitty blurted
out the story of the lost doll. He could
not repress a smile at the Oddity of the
circumstance.
"You shall have your dolly mt once,
little cherub," he said to Kitty, and
he took out card and wrote on 1t.
"Just hand that to the gatekeeper and
he will return your lost pet. hope
you will honor the farm with visit,
MISS" he spoke to Marcia, and the lat
ter was duly confused at the express
sion In those observing and apparently
admiring eyes.
He bade them adieu with courtly
grace and went his way. Amid her EN-
barrassment Marcia dropped the card.
As she recovered 1t she could not help
but bestOw a glance after the manly
young fellow. Her face blanched
From a bridge rafter two rOugh-look
ing men had sprung out. Their mis-
sion was palpably one of robbery.
The young man was neither weak
ling nor coward. Marcia thrilled as
she noted Il mastery stroke that sent
one of the footpads PROSTATE. MIR.
Trescott turned TO overcome the other
when his foot slipped.
Splash!
A cry of horror rang from the lips
of Marcia. The two fOotpads, alarmed
and baffied, started on run across
the bridge. Marcia darted to the spot
where the young man disappeared. She
saw him fifteen feet below, founder
ing in the deep water. Once he sank,
Marcia, an expert swimmer herself,
that he was a novice In
that respect. She acted on an impulse,
and brave one. Without hesitancy
she dropped over the plank edge. She
