V- LOUNGERSJN LUXURY The Life of the Gilded Youths of Great Britain. FADS OF MODERN SYBARITES. They Surround Themselves With tht Highest Products of Civiliiation and Make Idols of Their Bodies, These Twentieth Century Epicures. In a case that came before the bank ruptcy court receutly the debtor, a young man In the early twenties, gave In his accounts an Item of 0,000 which, he said, was tho amount he had lost owing to the compulsory sale of the furniture In his flat. Tho original cost 6f the furniture In question Is left to the Imagination. The truth is that our "golden lads" do themselves re markably well (to use their own ex pression) and think that nothing In the world is too good for them. We are always reading In the papers allusions to the luxury and extravagnnce of wo men of the smart world. Now and then we may come across some refer ence to the elaboration of self Indul gence In which the young men of our wealthy class luxuriate. Some years since we had a description of the wardrobe of a New York "dude." It appeared In an American paper, and much of it had been communicated by the young man himself, especially some Information as to the prices of the garments he affected. Not long after a paragraph went the round of the papers about a certain Italian poet and the little comforts with which he loved to surround himself. They were described as In no way Inferior to those of the New York young man. It Is not alone In England that the dandy surrounds himself with the highest products of civilization and makes a god of bis body. The luxury of a woman of fashion pales almost to insignificance when compared with that, for instance, of her brother In the guards or heir to the family estates. The young man who was 6,000 to the bad In consequence of "the bankruptcy sale" of his furniture Is a case In point ue prooamy lav ished between 8.000 and 10,000 on the plenishing of the rooms. This Is not much beyond the usual with young men of the kind. Carpets alone make a large hole In 1,000. Something very special in wall hangings Is proportion ate In cost Each piece of furniture Is a gem in its way. The tradesmen know the kind of customer they have to deal with and that for the present there is plenty of money. They bring forth their richest and rarest and not in vain. The high ambition of the young man Is to "go one better" than any other fellow be knows in every detail of his surroundings. The civilized world is ransacked in order to provide him with the latest refinements of cost ly luxurlousness in such appointments as bed and bath, glass, china, orna ments, silver and dexterously shaded lights. His florist's yearly bill would keep two or three poor families. As to dress, a single fact may throw some light on the relative values of the young man's wardrobe and that of the smart woman. The valet of one such gilded youth having complained to bis master that in his large and luxurious west end flat there was no proper ac commodation for his clothes, the re source of renting a second flat equally large for the housing of the wardrobe was suggested and at once adopted. A small room Is devoted to clothes and brushes and certain preparations for the treatment of shoe and kid and boot leather. A larger room is given to the boots and shoes themselves and their familiar trees, and so on with the more important articles of dress. Country clothes have spacious quarters devoted to them. They include rifling gear, cricket and tenuis suits, sporting get up and traveling kit. Here are his portmanteaus and traveling bags, an imposing array. A large wicker basket standing among them elicits smiling inquiry from the interested relatives whom he has invited to tea and to whom lie Is showing bis new "dig gings." "Oh. that?" -he says. "That ba,sket ought to know Its way to France alone. It goes every fortnight with my washing. English laundries ruin silk things. We tried 'em. Tore I them to pieces and made the sheets yellow in no time." "Silk sheets?" . ' "Oh, yes! No one ever has any oth er now." "And you send this huge basketful once a fortnight?" i "Every week," he corrects us. "One Is on its way back now." It is Interesting to see the youna men of the day at our smart restau rants, each seated alone at one of the tables, intent on doing himself thor oughly well. His whole mind seems occupied with the menu and its coin ponent parls. In a novel written by a man t!i opening chapter shows ns a ruli:ir youth lending London for Monte Ca:'!o !le gives, the guard " shlllin-;s to l:e"V the rest of the world out of his tlrs class carriage and regards with satis faction three small hampers with which he lias provisioned himself for t!n Journey. One contains his i!!:r!ier fo: that evening, another Ills luncheon fo; the next day. and the third holds th wine that is to Mccompnny these two meals and a neat contrivance by tlx help of which he makes himself -n cup of superlatively excellent aftei dinner coffee. He has left London t" escape his creditors. Such Is the golden youth of our day. He denies ii'"" THE MORNING ASTOIUAN, ASTORIA.

Fairbanks, the wife of the vice president's eldest son. As th Bourne-Jones type of woman is very much the rage now.Mrs. Fairbanks has reason to be niuch flattered with the noted painter's approval. For a long time it has been expect ed that Mrs. J. L. Gardner of Boston would provide by legacy that the fa mous Gardner collection shall go to the Museum of Fine Arts, but instead it is understood she will provide for the perpetual maintenance of the Fenway museum as a separate in stitution. ' DEATH WAS ON HIS HEELS. Jesse P. Morris, of Skippers, Va., had a close call in the spring of 1906. He says: "An attack of pneumonia left, me so weak and with such a fear ful cough that my friends declared consumption had me, and death was on my heels. Then I was persuaded to try Dr. King's New Discovery. It helped me immediately, and after taking two and a half bottles I was a well man again. I found out that New Discovery is the best remedy for coughs and lung disease in all the world." Sold under guarantee at Charles Rogers & Son drug store. 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free.
