not wasted, however, for many visitors to
hotels and cottages at Alexandria Bay and
other colonies take long motor boat rides
among the islands, admiring the show places.
The islands in their original state are
beautiful, some densely wooded, some rocky
with pine trees among the rocks, others
smooth and green. In among these, on some
millionaires' property, the fall flowers add
striking note of gay red, orange and purple.
Terraces are masses of bloom. Asters and
goldenglow are skillfully set among the rocks
at the waters edge so that they are mirrored
in the river. One OF these millionaires has
even his own flower edged canal, built at
great expense, to form a winding waterway
between the islands of his estate.
Expensive Islands
Not all of the homes, however, are desert
ed. Not all are owned by millionaires, either.
Their are cottages of all sizes down to a
ridiculously tiny green "love nest which the
story goes twas built for two but three are
there now" -,
The islands are of all sizes. Some of the
largest accommodate whole summer colonies
But the most popular size for summer homes
are those that comfortably hold a single
house, leaving enough land for a yard and
garden. Islands smaller than this are not
wasted, though. Houses are built on dots
of land so microscopic that the front yard is
under water. To take walk, they have to
get in a boat at the front door and go some
where else.
Ou0 VI Lu0 1lLLlS lIdLu0 CULIdS6SS was even
built on a reconstructed island. A few rocks
with lone tree stuck up above the shallow
water and the land was filled in enough to
make a foundation for small house and
even few trees were planted in the yard
Why all this work should be necessary
when there are plenty of untenanted islands
Of comfortable size lying all about is bit
obscure. Still, islands have gone up, and
the two rocks and pine tree may have been
bargain. Several hundred of the islands
on the American side of the river were sold
years ago to man for $4,000. 1t is a fact
that Pullman, the railroad man, bought a
desirable island for $25 about so years ago.
And it is estimated that the same island,
without its handsome residence, would now
bring no less than $4,000.

w. HIS Printed S1;6

~ IVES was at least kind enough to let
Lazarus lie at the gate and receive
crumbs from the table. But when
INDECENT adorers of the ex-kaiser write to
him at his castle at Doom, beseeching a bit
OF help, they receive by way of answer a
printed slip which reads in this wise:
"His majesty, the emperor and king,
has learned with sincere regret of the ne
cessitous conditions in the case under re-
view. The means at his disposal for
such objects Chat is, charitable relief,
have, however, long since been exhaust
ed, and the economic and exchange con-
ditions are simply annihilating for his
estate, as on the average only four Dutch
gulden are exchanged for hundred
German marks. In consequence of the
general dearness of living which pre-
walls in Holland, the barest necessities
can hardly be provided with German
money. His majesty is, therefore, not
in position to grant the requested
financial assistance"
It would not be fair to chide w. H. for
adopting the convenient device Of the printed
slip in a correspondence which is said 20 be
multitudinous, albeit one might expect him
to be rather sensitive about scraps of paper.
Nor is he to be blamed for not miuistering
to each of his host Of petitioners out of a
fortune which amounts TO only some mil
lions of dollars. But with all propriety it
may be remarked that many a German house
hold, as well as thousands in other lands
would have escaped perjury and tragical
bereavement had that pompous person who
continues to refer to himself as Ellis Majesty,
the Emperor and King" been more con-
cerned with the common rights of common
men than with his own vainglory.

MRS. SOLOMON SAYS:
BY HELEN ROWLAND


My son, hast thou considered the High Cost
of Kissing?
Nay, verify!
For, what Youth doth not look upon
damsel's kisses as gifts of charity, and loves
little graft? And what Youth, when he
seeketh to kiss a woman, taketh account of
the price that he shall pay?
Yet, behold, there is the kiss that leadeth
into matrimony, and for which man payeth
in cash and in service and in installments of
duty and devotion, all his life.
And thero is the kiss that leadeth to d.
vorce, and for which he payeth in regret
and alimony all the rest OF his days.
And there is the kiss that leadeth to the
breach-of-promise suit, and for which he pay
eth in lawyers fees and brides and humilia-
ton.
And there is the kiss that leadeth to fir
tation, and for which he payeth in remorse,
and ennui and heart-fag.
And there is the kiss of the gold-digger,
for which he payeth in orchids and dinners
and taxi-fares, long after he hath wearied of
her kisses.
Yet, the Foolish Bachelor hath said in
his heart:
go to. go to! A kiss for a kiss, and a
sigh for a sigh!
''For kiss is its own reward
10, to one man, damsel's kiss may be
worth lifetime of punishment, Yet, to an
other man, it is worth but the price Of pair
of theater-tlckets and cab-fare.
"To one man, woman's kiss may be
worth the price Of solitaire and wedding
ring. And to another, it may be worth no
| more than an evenings dalliance.
WHO then, shall standardize a kiss, and
set price upon it?
"For kisses are as melons, which may be
either sweet or flat-as books, which may
| be either thrilling or tiresome."
| And, if this be their philosophy, I charge
thee, my Daughter, be thou a PROFITEER!
For, he that seeketh cheap kisses, wanteth
them only as souvenirs.
And, only the kisses for which he must
pay with love, with self-sacrifice, and with
wedding-rings, doth any man prize.
For these, by Beloved, are Loves luxury
taxes.
Go to! What man investeth in a Flivver
when his purse will buy an imported car?
What man smoketh stogies, when he can
afford Havanas?
What man buyeth seconds, when he hath
the price of firsts!
Why, then shall woman label her kisses,
''Cheap! Given away with every purchase of
ice-cream soda?"
For, in the glass case the synthetic jewel
appeareth of great value; but in the bargain
tray, the real ruby seemeth but paste.
And the heart of a woman delighteth in
bargains; but a man appraiseth every
thing, according to the price he hath paid for
it, and the struggle it hath cost him to win
| it!
| Selah.
