CURIOUS TYPES 'OF FEMININITY
SEEN WHILE TRAVELING ABROAD
One Soon Becomes Accustomed to the Various Species
of Woihan Voyagers to Be Met With on an Ex
tended Trip, Especially the Fussy Woman
By ELLEN ADAIR
AFWSFt one has traveled for a short
. period 6n grows accustomed to tho
various types of people bno Invariably
meet They are to be encountered over
hd over again arid In every part of the
globe.
The Fussy Woman; for Instance, Is al
wars with us. There simply Is no getting
away from her. She fusses over nnj thing
and everything. Nothing Is too trlval for
her, no Incident so Immaterial that It Is
frUUWs of creating a fuss. She loves to
fuss sn) fuss she will I
This type of woman Is even more Irk-
Borne on a short journey than on a Ipng
, one For on a short Journey she gets
more In our way On the way from, Lon
don to the south of England there was
one of this typo In the carriage. Her
husband, her baby and the nurse were all
there for her assistance and protection
yet she did not stop
complaining the whole
way.
with ear'sptlttlng din "James, stop read
ing at oncel I think haby must bo djlng
do stop the train or eomethlng-thls must
be looked Into Immediately."
Hut "James" was to far from wishing
to stop the train that he 'didn't even stop
reading, but continued his peaceful pe
rusal of the pages with every outward
appearance of
comfort.

"James, have you
-S sot all the tickets?"
' Iha tvnntrf p,tf lV.
Ing Ijp out of her
seat with alarming
alacrity, "J a m o s"
was burled behind
tho pages of his
newsnaner nnd urufrlv
responded that ho had attended to ths
purchasing of tho said tickets before
starting and that sho need have no
anxiety on that account.
The Fussy Woman subsided for a
moment but only for a moment. "Tho
sun la shining on the baby's face. It will
glvo him a. strokol" she nnnounced, In
sepulchral tones to tho nurse. In order
to avoid this terrible catastrophe sho then
Jerked the blind down so violently that
the noise awoke the baby, who howled
at the top of hla none-too-feeblo volco
and, like Rachel of tho Scriptures, re
fused to bo comforted.
His fond but fussy mother then used
all mannor of blandishments upon tho
child. Sho hugged him, sho kissed him,
she Jerked him with strange violence
Into mld-alr and she did everything cal
culated to upset tho stomach and temper
of a well-behaved child much more thoso
appendages of a naughty llttlo creature
Hko this particular Infant.
"James." sho began again In a volco
loud enough to bo heard above the Juve
nile lamentations which filled the carrlago'
Eiiiim'
Tho Infant
finally fell nsleep
Ono expected n lit
tle quiet then nut
the Fussy Woman,
like the leopard,
could not change
her spots.
"Can you tell mo
what station this
Is?" she began,
"nnd Just how long
It will take to get
to Folkestone?
We ore going thcro
for baby's sake, for
tho sea breezes
will do him good. I don't caro speclnlly
for the place too many wounded soldiers
about It fusses mo dreadfully to seo
theso poor Dclgldns, and they can't talk
a word of English when you speak to
them. Uut you must sacrldco something
for your child's sako, of course "
And so sho rattled on for tho rest of
tho Journoy. Her husband did not utter
a single syllable. Doubtless ho una ac
customed to her foolishness and had
grown hardened. But the Fussy Woman
never once rested. Nor did she permit
any one else to rest. First tho window
l&d to be closed, because there was a
draft. Then It had
to bo opened again
becauso tho compart
ment waa too hot.
Then closed ondo
more because tho
tomporatura was
lower. Throe times
that long-suffering
husband had to bring
forth tickets, money
a n d various docu
ments for hor Inspec
tion. Before tho Journey
was finished sho had
Indeed successfully
convinced evory ono In tho carrlago that
a Fussy Woman Is the greatest trial on

PRESERVING ACTIVITY
Bounteous Yields of Fruits and
Vegetables Rouse Practical
Economy of Wives
With tons of produce rotting on the
farms of Pennsylvania and New Jersey
and Dock street and other wholesale cen
tres of tho city literally under the weight
of great heaps of vegetables and fruits,
housewives of this city aro offered on op
portunity to practice practical economy
to. an extent seldom If ever before real-
Imijl , ILL. -,.
ucu in ims cuy.
Tho opportunity Is, In short, to take
advantage of the presont exceedingly low
prices of tho market, to prepare against
the future, when prices may soar to a
point Inaccessible to tho average purse,
by preserving (ho fruits and vegetables
now In Bcason. Take corn, for Instance.
That wholesome food may be dried or
canned-and thero are three billion bush
els of this grain In prospect for this year's
American harvest.
Tomatoes have been so plentiful In this
and nearby States that they have already
glutted tho wholesale market on several
occasions. Less than two weeks ago
tomatoes were shipped to wholesale mer
chants In such quantities that Dock street
commission merchants wore giving them
away to those who would take them,
rather than have tho tremendous ship
ments rot on their hands. Even now,
with the tomato "market somewhat re
lieved, this Vegetable Is rrnAllv nhtxln.
able at prices ranging from 35 to 60 cents
a. basket, or five-eighths of a bushel.
Peaches aro perhaps more plentiful this
year than at any time In the past decade,
and although there has been a fair de
mand, for the fruit, the best Georgia
peaches are to be had at prices which
range from as low as (1 to 2 a crate.
This year's crop Is said to be twice as
large as that of last year, and the price
is correspondingly low.
Another Instance of the remarkable
conditions extant at the present time Is
the potato market In some farming dis
tricts of New Jersey farmers m H.iimi-
thls vegetable to commission merchants'
for JS cents a bushel or at from S5 to JO
cents a barrel. Last year the barrel
Price was 1.50 and In previous years as
high as t.
With the numerous up-to-date cook
books and pamphlets of instruction In
too art of nreservlnir fruit,, n.i ,..
tables, together with the modern appll-J
anecs for accomplishing this end, thcro
should bo few of tho fruits and vege
tables which tho enterprising housewife
need discard as preserving possibilities
especially when sho thinks of the prlco
at which she may pbtaln tho produce.
Tho following figures cover tho general
range of quotations on tho wholesale
market:

It goeis without "saying that this Is the
age of spectacles for women. Indelibly

one's memory with the extrcmo end of
grandmother's organ or emeu, tne lime
has conic when without respect to age
or comeliness they are to be found riding
noidiy astride the nosese or tne. reminino
rich and poor alike.
Contrary to the spasm of though that
might suggest a solution to the picture,
the fact that there aro moro people to
day rubbing elbows In "movlo" chairs
thon church pews which latter has al
woa provided such delightful optle
relaxation) comes the edict from well
known ophthalmologists that moving pic
tures, ns they arc depleted on tho screen
toda, cause Very little defective vision
Systcmntlc examination of tho oes of
school children by Visiting oculists Is
primarily tho reason for tho flood of spec
tacled youngsters encountered dally. It
the ejos are "tho windows of tho soul" as
somo poet hath sung, verily many poor
souls havo been getting but samplo pack
ages of light
'Tho cc strain, which nt ono tlmo was
duo attentively watching the flickering
screen," snyB Dr. B. Lewis Zloglcr, has
been practically eliminated, owing to u
mora perfect method of manufacturing
films,"
This vibration, nccordlng to the Lubln
Film Manufacturing Company, Jias been
ovcrcomo by the Installation of a new
apparatus known as tho perforating
machine This provides perfect perfor
ations on tho sldo of tho film, which catch
on tho sprocket points ns the machine. Is
operated, producing n steady picture
"Thtso perforations are so perfect ' sayn
a member of this company, "that a
variation of 1-1000 of nn inch Is detected
nnd remedied boforo leaving tho plant.
"Tho vibration has como In Borne In
stances from tho lack of a steady baso
for the operating machine, for Instnnco
a solid cement floor In which the machine
has been Installed."
"Many of tho Ills to which flesh Is heir,
together with tho poor vision of tho old
and young, is due. according tn Dr. Zlee.
Icr, to a purely mechanical defect In the
muscles controlling the eye. "It has been
pointed out," said he, "that any theory
of tho origin of disordered function which
does not embrace a consideration of tho
ocular apparatus ls unscientific and open
to criticism."
It IS Unquestionably trun In (hn nnlnlnn
of men of this profession that 75 per cent,
of ocular disorders depend on anomalies
of tho refraction, accommodation and
motility of the eyes, and a correction by
properly fitted glasses Is followed by
great good to the eye nnd tho general
organism

Dr. .filegler, "may bo snirt tn hnn ih.

Konollman only says, "Poof, poof!"
To him Its terror Is no more,
Of which ho has the final proof
In chickens on tho second floor
And a truck patch on the roof.
The problem of the cost of living and
also of utilizing dwelling spneo that or
dinarily goes to waste has been solved
by Harry Konollman, garageman, truck
man and chicken-farmer. Konollman
owns a three-story dwelling at 1631 Nortn
street, near 16th street and Falrmount
avenue.
The houso has enough rooms on tho
second floor to houso Konollman and his
family comfortably. Tho first floor ho
uses as an automobile repair shop.
That's his trade, but automobile repair
ing doesn't keep him BUfllclcntiy busy.
Accordingly, Konollman decided to put
the third floor to work, and Installed In
It a model chicken farm. At the present
tlmo he has nearly 400 white Leghorn
chickens, and ho defies any ono to show
him, a herincry that Is more sanitary.
Even with this arrangoment, however,
the roof was going to waste. Konollman
abhors waste. Ho did away with It on
the roof by carrying several cartloads of
rich earth through the narrow trap door
In buckets und starting a truck patch.
This season has been especially good
for tomatoes. Somo of the vines are so
thickly covered with the vegetables that
nt several points they can be seen hang
ing over tho edge of the roof.
The chicken farm Is the most Interest
ing of Konollman's venture, however.
An open-air run for the fowl ls provided
f io ruui oi ino secona iioor mat Juts
out beyond tho third floor. This spaco
has been Inclosed In a wlro netting by
Konollman and divided Into runs, which
ho has covered with sod.

Friends That Count
The friends tbVit love U3 always,
In the good times and tho bad;
The friends that love us always,
Are tho friends that keen us glad.
ine menus tnat cling in tempest
As they do In calm are those
That havo made the paths of hardship!
oeem xne patns of song ana rose.
The friends that love us always.
When we go their wav or not.
Are the friends our hearts remember'.
When the others ore forgot.
The friends that stick the closest
When trouble grows tho worst!
The friends that love us always
Just the way they did at flrst
They nro the crowning Jewels
Of the coronets we weave
In the dream of tender moments
When he troubles start to leave;
Wo revere their names forever
And we see their faces clear.
Tho friends that love us always
Whether aun or shadow's near.
