WOMEN TAKING TO MONOCLE
llngli Eyegla?s Rapidly Becoming
Popular Among the Smart Set In
English Society.
Two fashionably dressed women
were seen In street the other
day, each wearing a monocle screwed
Into the right eye* According to a
member of a wall-known firm of op
ticians) the wearing of tho single eye
class Is becoming popular among wom
en In society^ ?
"We huve had several orders for
monocles from women recently," he
Haiti. "In every case there was genu*
Ine trouble \y1111 ope eye oniy. Rather
than wear plnce-nea fitted with one
plain glass. for the good eye, they pre
ferred monocles as being tbe least dis
figurement. They all chose those tit
ted with gold rims as being the most
comfortable ami the easiest to keep
In the eye. Tht>>* take cords also, for
It requites the confidence born of long
experience to wear a monocle without
a guard.
"After all, why should the monocle
be a masculine glass only? It Is a
mistake for some people to regard' It
as only a facial decoration for dude*
and politicians. Where only one eye
Is defective a superfluous glass Is a
nuisance. ?
The monocle lends distinction to the
right kind of face. It best suits peo
ple with slmrpcut features. It Is about
time that, the monocle came Into Its
own."?London (5lobe.

nate Property Owners In the City
ojf London, England.
The most 'elaborate and the largest
map In the world Is the "valuation"
map of the city of London, which was
some twenty years In the making, and
which Is more than thirty feet wide
and twenty fe??t from top to bottom.
The map Is of the metropolitan dls
trlet of Lopdon. embracing an area of
115 square miles, and every house,
shop and piece of property in that
area Is shown. Nearly 40,(XX) separate
estates are listed.
Some curious and Interesting facts
about London landlord* are shown by
the great map. The wealthiest estate
Is that of the duke of Westminster,
400 acres, with a rent roll of $15,000,
000 per year. This is not by any means
the largest estate in London, however,
though Its. location makes it the most
valuable. In South London Is one es
tate which covers four square miles,
and there are several Exceeding two
square miles. Lord Howard de Wal
den's estate brings In rents to the
amount of $10,000,000 per annum, and
the 250 acres belonging to the duke of
Bedford reiut for $10,500,000 per year.
Lord Nort hampton, the duke , of Nor
folk ; Lord Portinan and Earl Cadogan
each own around 200 acres of city
property, anfl their rents run from
about $."">,000,000 to $8,000,000 per year
each.. Not a bad idea tt> Iqt a city like

"Marriage is a desperate thing,"
said John Selden way back in the six
teenth century, and now it looks as If
we of the twentieth century were do

perate. A begowned dignitary over In
Newark 1ms decided (ami unfortunate
ly his decisions have legal weight)
that the lesser portion of the marriage
contract has no right to compensation
for work performed In odd Jobs around
the house on his wife's property, such
as carpentering and painting the
fence, or washing the' dishes, or get

These things must be done free. He
ought to be glad to do them. And If

The cartoonist who, the other day,
pictured "Wonder What a Prince

rather bored with what he had to go
through. Apropos, the story Is told of
a young prince of the Orient making
many friends on the steamer which
bore him to England, so that at the
conclusion of the voyage these friends
arranged a dinner In his honor in Lon
don. It was a smart affair and a fash*
lonable company, but the prince did
not put In an appearance.
The following morning the chairman
of the committee asked him why he

A FOOL'S
PAP.AJDISE
By OTILUA F. PFEU FKR
(Copyright. Illft, Weaitrn S*wi>|iHp*r Union)
"ll In -?>h. n htil a shame'
^ hy, Dorothy! it hits banished you
from all your friends. How ciui ypu
laugh and b.<? happy?"
Dorothy Bronson. bride of a nionth.
warbled IiI.*? a hrl^n. souring I irk and
manifested the utmost ecstacy.
Her girlhood friend, N'odjiui Pestle,
had motored down from Turtle IVay.
w here she and her husband were
spending |i iwo weeks' vacation, and
was wrought almost to tears as she
viewed the environment of her de
voted sehool ehipu ami favotlte.
Hack at Detroit, where they had all
lived, Alden Hronson, poet, artist, as
Dorothy Insisted on designating him,
had often alluded to his one property
possession, (lolden I.ake. Ills love took
the place of father and mother long
since dead, with Dorothy, and his high
strung sentimentality Was part of u
really superior nature. Kor hours he
had entranced Doiothy by telling her
of the glories of the spot. He hud not
exaggerated them so far as natural
beauty was eoheorned, and Dorothy
was not disappointed when they set
tled down after a brief honeymoon.
The father?of Alden had left his son
a bit of Wild wood comprising several
thousand acres embracing Golden lake.
There was a large, rambling, old-fash
ioned farm house and the usual sur
roundlngs of the same, and a small
cottage of more modern design. This
occupied the summit of a bill rising
grandly from the lake. Krom Its rustic
porch Alden and Dorothy cou'ld view
the country for miles around. It was
an Ideal place for dreamers and lovers
and the newly wedded pair were in
complete harmony with their environ
ment.
"Yon see, Norma." observed Doro
thy, "there is the scenery."
"You'll soon tire of that and you
can't live on it."
"And then there's Alden!" exulted
Dorothy. "Oh! what beautiful poetic
thoughts come to him In this peaceful
solitude! Ills sketching, too! You
know, he Is a natural artist, and
where could one find a more lovely
spot?"
Mrs. Deane sniffed slightly. She
was not cruel enough to disenchant
Dorothy as to the Impracticability of
her husband, but in her set it was
very well knowh that Alden Hronson's
prospects were decidedly precarious.
Norma expanded on the gny life and
gaudy hotel at fashionable Turtle Hay,
but she failed to daunt the bright spir
it of Dorothy, who with Alden drifted
along happy In the present and dream
ing hopefully of the future. They
lived to themselves, not one whit lone
some, and really ? pitying tlie friends
who pitied them.. The. winter came
on aud .their experience was sojne
what rigorous, but their love and con
tentment remained undiminished. And
then the little surplus money had given
out. Alden came back from a visit
to the city one day looking serious
and thoughtful.
"Dorothy, dear," he said, "we have
got to face the realties of our situa
tion. The firm that has given me some
desultory work has made me an offer
that will brlug In a very liberal salary
for two years to come, at leafct. They
flaunted tne with wasting our time In
this 'fool's paradise.' as they call It.
Here Is the proposition: They have a
contract to take some views for an ex
ploring expedition among the South
Sea ""Islands And Australia, and will
advance enough to make you comfort
able while I am away."
Dorothy mourned and cried over the
prospect of separation. Gradually she
was reconciled to It. She, however,
Insisted on remaining at Golden lake,
and a maiden sjster of Alden's came
to keep her compapy.
"I have put the property in your
name, Dorothy," her husband advised
her, "and I want you to sell It If you
can. This Is too dull a life for you to
lead alone."
Dorothy said nothing to this. She
had made up her mind what she would
do. She missed Alden dreadfully when
he was gone, but Miss Bronson became
a prized and helpful companion. They
put their Ideas together and planned
far ahead. Mrs. Deane one day
dropped In at the old farm house,
whither Dorothy had removed. She
was actually horrified to find dainty,
soulful Dorothy, with the help of Miss
Bronson, enjoying herself with the
^"rr> nt nearly Ave hundred chickens
raising them for sale t? the big hotels
up at Turtle Bay.
It was over a year and a half when
Alden Bronson returned. He had not
made much money, but he had ac
quired an experience that equipped
him for a more practical business fu
ture.
It was in the clear white moonlight
that Dorothy drove him to Golden Lake
from the nearest railrosd station. As
Ihey rounded the hill the cottage, en
larged and aglow with light, greeted
him like a beacon. Then he noticed
the old farm house being transformed
Into hotel-like proportions.
**Why! What does that mean, Dor
othy?" he began, but his darling
closed his lips with a kiss and the
words: -.
"Oh. Alaen: *uch grand fortune!
A summer renoit company hns bought
all the land north of the cottage and
we are rich, but that dear home spot
