LADIES WAITING TO
QUEEN MARY STRIKE
allowance Of $500 a Year
Not Enough; They Say.

:. London, Aug. 18.--The high cost Of
court dresses has furnished Bucking-
ham palace with a choice wage dis
pute.
= Twelve ladies in: waiting, including
the Countess Of Shaftesbury and Lady
Eve Dugdale, decided that the $500
year allowed from the kings private
purse was not enough; in fact, not
half enough.
The allowance covered expenses
nicely in pre-war days when court
dresses, shoes and. bouquets were not
so expensive ;@but even then they had
to skimp a bit. During the war,
when court functions were taboo, the
$500 was virtually a gift from the
king.
Now court balls are again the rage
and Countess Shaftesbury and Lady
Dugdale, the most influential of the
court ladies, audited their expenses to
the queen. In four months each has
spent more than $1,000, they. told her
majesty. "We do not mind, but some
of the ladies cannot afford such ex-
penses." They added that the annu-
al expense should be reduced to $500.
"No," said the queen, "court ladies
should make some sacrifices and pay
the expenses out of the money saved
for their allowances during the war;.
Whereupon Countess Shaftesbury
and Lady Dugdale resigned. Queen
Mary did her best to have them recon-
slider their designations, but they were
firm. = It threatened an immediate
breaking up Of the ladies in the house
hold, and it was decided that the
designations should not be accepted.
The queen, however, ordered an in-
quiry into the expense of the ladies
in waiting and granted 100 per cent
Increase in the allowance. This adds
a burden of $4,000 a year to be borne
AS the kings private purse.

Typhoid Can Be Prevented

Speaking of the increase of ty-
phoid fever, the Baltimore Sun says:
There are few persons so ignorant
as not to know that typhoid can be
prevented and that the means of pre-
venting it are extremely simple and
within the reach of everybody. The
immunity given by the vaccine treat
ment has been mathematically dem
onstrated in the armies of the world
during the last five years. Death has
been baked by it of millions of lives,
and typhoid, which formerly fed on
everybody, has to seek its prey
among fools or invincible procrasti-
nators. These two classes Of humans
being yet exceedingly large, typhoid
still has a numerous clientele.
