A PRIXCELY SEEKING. Alexander, the crown prince of Servia, has written to his father a"rom St. Petersburg, asking for per mission to proceed to America In order to obtain financial support, to further the cause of his country agalnfat the encroachments of Aus tria. What sort of financial aid do you suppose young Alexander has in mind? He cannot hope to Interest the moneyed men of this country in taking an issue of bonds secured by the meagre resources of Servia. No one cares for securities, unless as a Sift, floated by a country the size of the crown prince's in order to fight a nation so Immensely superior as Austria-Hungary is. There are no Industries worth the mentioning In the whole length and breadth of Ser via. Concessions are too easily pick ed up in Central and South America to bother seeking them in the half starved Balkan3. A monopoly might too worth whl'e, but precarious In time of war. None of thebe could j Alexander trade without fear of be ing laughed out of the country. But there la one way In which Alexander might raise the wind. Ru znors of his intentions In that direc tion have been In the air before. This source of funds is none other than among the speculative mothers of Newport. Princesses there are who are American, liorn, but they cannot assume the royal purple. They "have no prospect of ever wearing a crown. Fine titles have been captur ed in Newport, but never that of crown princess. This Alexander hasn't a very pleas ant reputation. His. portraits Indi cate that his forehead and his chin liave rather too much slant to the rearward to make him altogether re liable. There have been ugly stories auch as beating a groom with a horsewhip, torturing dogs and pur suing those whom he shouldn't. But much may be forgiven the possessor of a transferable title. Newport has overlooked many an affair which it lias chosen to call indiscretion. That It mlqht jump at the oferlngs of Alexander Is perhaps going too far. But assuredly the candidate has a chance of getting the money he and Ills country are so extremely In want of. Jt would be a crown prince- en tirely chlnles3, wo suspect, who wouldn't have a show against a Hun garian count. THE SHIRTWAIST. Jf Mme. Josefa Osborne, the noted alressmakor, who died recently in New York, was really the Inventor of tho shirtwaist as It Is claimed, sho deserves to bo put upon the roll of fame. It is said that Mine. Osborn saw her husband's soft shirts, envied them and, with a few alterations, ap propriated them for herself, her own clients and the wholo feminine world. The shirtwaist has furnished food for tho wits and a bono of conten tion for tho fashion makers for many y.ears and It still lives and flourishes. It seems to contain a round of fashion within itself. One season its front is an olaborato display of fem inine handwork nncl Its back has a row of artfully concealed buttons, which nro tho despair of tho clumsy masculine fingers to which thoy nro submitted for dally manipulation. Tho following season tho clumsy masculine fingers aro given a much jneeded rest but whon tho occasion eome3 for thom to reach out for their own oxtrn studs and buttons thoy strlko a vaccum and tho slumbering masculine Intellect behind thorn re calls tho fnct that tho lmmnculato mannish front opposite him at the breakfast tnblo each morning Is adorned with ornaments vory similar to thoso ho was about to attach to Ills own dres3 skirt.

' The man who has done something that has made him the subject of gossip can't complain that the peo ple don't take any interest in him. When the doctor gets you about cured and says all you need Is a tonic for your nerves, it is a sign he Is about to present his bill. The man who doesn't bring a story of where he has been to his wife, and something In his pockets for the children, is unsatisfactory in two- relations. Santa Claus may be a myth Let those think so who will; But the man who knows the bitter truth Is he who pays the bill. It makes no difference what the motive that draws a crowd of wo men together, Browning or bridge, they will decide before adjourning that some man is guilty. The women are paying out a good deal to Improve their complexions. What Is the matter with the old fashioned woman's method of get ting a steam bath over the wash tub?

In its most common form It can bo washed. Its fresh whiteness makes tho old-fashioned germ laden bom bazlno look like savagery and it has set a standard of cleanliness of which tho modern Immaculate and well groomed woman wo read about in tho socloty columns is the realiza tion. Thoro aro subtlo differences In shirtwaists which aro a matter of sad and surprising information to tho man who pays tho bills but thoy nil look allko. Tho woman who has tho mind and musclo to do hers "up" well can put it on and go wherever democratic society affords an oppor tunity with tho consoliug conscious ness that she is woll dressed; a prlv- ilego of more vital valuo to woman- kind than a trial by Jury or tho bal- lot. IS CHiCAGi Decide Thnt Agriculture Is Perfectly Lovely Profession One AYcninn Experienced. CHICAGO, Dec. 11. Resplendent in autumn millinery the members of the Chicago Woman's club met to consider the subject of farming. The topic of the meeting was neither "The Delights of Country Life," nor "Horace as an Apostle of the Bu colic." It was "Farming as a Pro fession for Women," and the 3peakor of the afternoon was Mrs. Virginia Meredith of Cambridge City, Ind., who announced that she had been running a farm for the last twenty six years and expects to run one for twenty-six years more. When Mrs. Meredith had taken her seat several of the clubwomen UUIllUiCU kUUb 11 Lillet LUL11U ICWIY 111C.1 husbands into it they were going to move right out into the country. "No one is so good a country wo man as one who has lived In the city, anyway," said Mrs. Charle3 Hehrotln. "I come from the country and I know It's a good place to live in. City men make the best farmen. The man who has lived on a farm all his life doesn't know how to ap preciate his blessings and he doesn't always know how to take advantage of all his resources. "Why can't we get our schools to teach children agriculture in the right way? The teaching of agricul ture usually consists In sending the pupil out to weed In the sun. He has no Idea why he Is doing it, and as a result he usually is turned away from agriculture once and for all." "I do not say that farming is a new profession for woman," said Mrs. Meredith. "I know of scores of women who have been left alone with farms on their hands and have run them with great success. But I do say that farming is appropriate and charming above all other pro fseslons for women. Let's not go Into the crowded professions that keep us cooped up in the city. If a woman has any taste at all for lgri culture that Is the one thing for her to turn her' attention to." One man attended the meeting. He was Prof. William Hill of the Uni versity of Chicago, and he spoke on "Agricultural Education." AVOM.EX ARE SMOKIXG LESS. Popuhirity of Cigarette On Wane In London Hotels. LONDON, Dec. 1 The sign that "Ladles May Smoke" has been taken down from the cafe of a popular Lon don hotel, and Inquiries set on foot show that the popularity of the cigarette at least in public among fair smokers Is on the wane. "There was a time when women thought it smart to smoke in public," said tho manager of the Waldorf, "but as far as I can judge the Idea Is le3s nrevalent than it was. , At any rate, women certainly smoke less than they did. We do not object to their smoking after luncheon and dinner, but few now take advantage of the permission. "Wo do not, however, permit wo men to smoke at tea time, and I may say that I offended' a woman the i other day by sending a request to her that she would dispense with her cigarette at tea." - A similar opinion as to tho waning popularity of the cigarette among women was expressed by the man ager pf tho Savoy where again smok ing by women after dinner and luncheon is not forbidden. IMPORTANT TO LOVERS. Court Will Try to Decide Who Gets Tho Diamonds After You Quarrel and Part. NEW YORK, Dec. 1.
