Supplies Lonp-Felt Want.

Since there are a great many Amer
lean and English commercial houses
in Buenos Aires, numbers of girls go
down to that cosmopolitan city to work
in offices, but the problem Of finding
suitable lodgings there Is serious one
for them because the Argentine wom-
an has not yet entered the business
world. On this account hard-work-
ing committee has fitted up COM
plete hotel for women, called the City
house, and this delightful and much
needed place, although it has every
modern convenience and is beautifully
furnished and decorated, is not being
run for proft.-New York Egening

GoLD-PLATED DOOR KNOBS
New York Apartment Hotel Would
Seem to Be Last Word in
Height of Luxury.

I Three hundred Park avenue, New
York, the new Sherry apartments just
opened, Is probably the most luxurious
abode of wealth In the world, says a
correspondent. 1t has gold-plated
doorknobs, silver-plated chandeliers
and separate set of elevators running
to each of the sixteen floors. The
apartments really are private homes.
The largest Of thirty rooms has been
taken by Percy Rockefeller. The
yearly rentals range from $4,000 to
$4,000. There are ninety apartments.
Among the leading director tenants"
are Richard T. Wilson, Gen. Coleman
du Pont, Col. B. B. McAlpin, Louis
]. Horowitz, F.. C. B. Page, F. Colt
Johnson, Louis L. Durham and L. M.
Boomer. In furnishing the apartments
Europe and America have been search
ed for ideas and materials. Louis
Sherry has installed $250,OO0 worth
Of Thirteenth-century tapestries in
his apartment. Mr.. Boomer sent
to Norway for the wood used in his
apartment, Mrs. Boomer being ma
tive Of that country.
Some Of the walls in many Of the
homes are huge canvases for paint
ings by noted artists. A magnificent
ballroom, restaurant, grill, tea
room and confectionery shop occupy
the first floor and mezzanine. If you
want to locate at "Three Hundred
Park avenue" you must be voted
upon by the director tenants" who
are particular, very particular, indeed.

IN EXACT MODEL
Nashville to Have Perfect Repro
duction of Parthenon.
Finished Structure, 1t is Announced,
viii Conform In Every Detail
to the Original.

Within year the United States
will have the only exact-to-the-inch
reproduction of the Athenian
parthenOn. The masterpiece at
Athens, conceived and built by Phidias,
the sculptor; Ictinus. the architect,
and Pericles, the statesman, is being
reconstructed at Nashville, Tenn.
When Tennessee's centennial was
celebrated by an international ex-
position twenty-four years ago the
directors OF the fete built in temporary
form a replica of the parthenon. 1t
was used to house the art exhibit Of
that exposition. Nashville people con-
sidered 1t partial qualification Of
their ambition to make their city the
ATHENS Of the South"
This temporary structure left much
to be desired In the execution of the
delicate ornamentation and the great
number of statues which had to be
reconstructed from the inadequate
drawings then in existence. Yet the
structure, with brilliant colors In the
frieze and gables, so overshadowed
all the other buildings that when the
exposition was over the people de-
manded its preservation, and 1t be-
came shrine to the residents and
visitors Of Nashville.
Three years ago disintegration had
progressed to such an extent that the
building had to be closed.
1t was finally decided to erect a
permanent replica Of the Athenian
temple, using the method known as the
mosaic surface" concrete, developed
by John Early Of Washington, who
was intrusted with that part of the
work.
There still remained the question Of
the red background of the metOpes
and gables, the blue Of the triglyps
as agreed upon by the majority OF
authorities on Greek architecture.
About that time George Julian
Zolnay, sculptor, was making expert
ments in the production Of durable
material other than the costly stone
and bronze realizing that not until
the sculptor's work can be successfully
reproduced in less expensive yet dur
able materials will sculpture become
a truly democratic art.
He secured synthetic stone,
which not only poured" but could be
made of any color. Zolnay was COM
missioned by the Nashville park board
to reconstruct the figures Of the great
temple and then to reproduce them In
this artificial stone.
Whether the original parthenon had
an open roof or whether there was
some structural arrangement with
side lights masked by the cornice has
never been determined. The Nash
vile parthenon will have fiat sky
light following the slope of the roof
and so arranged as to obtain the best
possible light within, where an art
museum will be located eventually.

Earned Her Money.

George AIDE, from his box at the
Carpentier-Dempsey fight. nodded In
the direction Of a beautiful young
woman with very marvellous jewels.
"That's Cora de Trafford. She
carved out her fortune" he said.
"Rotw protested cinema producer.
"That ex-chorus girl didn't carve out
her fortune. She married Hugh de
Trafford, the wild septuagenarian mil
lionaire."
"Yes," said Mr.. AIDE, "but think how
many other chorus girls she had to cut
out to marry him."

near Mrs. Thompson: Five
~onths ago was married to the
n~aefest little woman I had ever
ret and still love her, but I can
81 understand her. Her disposi-
s,on has undergone some big
mango. l seemed to please her in
syery way before we were married,
hui now she finds fault and nags
ssout nearly everything. My table
snsnners aren't good / never act
-;ght out in a crowd or say the
r;sbts thing and / have given up
ssypral old men friends because
they didn't suit her.
II like to do little things for my
v;fe the same as 1 used to. The
, ofher day saw some exquisite
,s-ge pansies and bought big
bonnuet to bring home for the
table. When she opened the paper
ehe threw them aside and said she
never did care for pansies and to
ant them in water IL l wanted to.
+ &c the same way when I bring
candy. Usually if it is chocolate
she happens to want caramels, or
there are so many things she needs
ought not to spend money for
candy. Nothing suits.
Z sometimes think she cares moth
ing for me and yet she says she
does. II l take her to movie it is
verv seldom she will stay until it
4 over. She just doesn't care for
the picture. l can stay if l want
10. but she is going. OF course l
20. too.
II she were sick l could put up
with il, but she is perfectly we'll. 1
am getting discouraged for I do not
want such home.
She is a good little housekeeper
and cook. She was poor before we
we're married. l am getting $175
a month ana she thinks l am not
earning enough; b niger salary,
she calls it. OF course, 1 want to
make more and will when 1 get
more experienced. 1t seemed
plenty when 1 told her before we
married. l am twenty-five and she
is twenty-four.
Could you suggest something
helpful? 1 don't like to admit it,
bus l find myself hating to so

you have little table mannerisms
which do not mean anything, bat
as long as they annoy her l would
advise you to correct them. Man.
ners mean so much to a woman
that it is very hard for her to ret

many women feel every day Of
their lives. 1t will be good for her
to find you will not stay at home
unless home is a happy place.
You are making more money
than most young married men. l
realize that you cannot be lavish,
but II you are careful you ought to
get along nicely. Since your wife
would prefer other things to candy,
buy candy rarely and give her a
chance to really want it before she
has it.,
Do not be afraid to tell her that
you are disappointed in her. She
needs an awakening.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 have
been going with fellow who was
very good to me in every respect,
but now he won't speak to me.
What the trouble is l don't know,
as l was very kind to him.
q met another fellow with whom
| have been going. He is very kind,
but l don't like him nearly so we'll
as the other. 1 don't know whether
l should go back and ask the first
fellow what he is angry about and
try to make up or not. Please give
me good advice. PEGGY.
1t was very rude of the man to
stop speaking to you. l would not
advise you to ask him why he did
it. Learn to forget. Although
you may not like the man with
whom you are going now as well
as you did the other, they are not

l doubtless you will meet some one
later for whom you will care more
than either of these two.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a
girl % years old and in love with a
respectable young man. He and /
kept steady company at one time,
but have gradually drifted away
from each other. / still love him
and at one time he seemed to care
for me. It is impossible for me to
forget him, although 1 have gone
out with a number of other young
men. l see him quite often and the
more I see him the more I care for
him.
| How can forget him, or show
him l care for him? Which would
you advise me to do?
LONESOME.
! Keep on going with other young
men and trust that time will teach
you to forget. 1T weuld be foolish
and in poor taste to show him that
you care. I believe that when you
least expect it some one even bet
ter suited-to you will enter your
