i WOMEN TAKING TO MONOCLE I Single Eyeglass Rapidly Becoming Popular Among the Smart Set in ^ English Society. Two fashionably dressed women were seen in Regent street the other | day, each wearing a*monocle screwed into the right ey^ According to a member of a well-known firm of opticians the wearing of the single eyeglass is becoming popular among wom^ en in society. "We have had several orders for l monocles from women recently," he I said. "In every case there was genuine trouble with one eye only. Rather than wear pince-nez fitted with one plain glass for the good eye, they pre, ferred monocles as being the least dis* figurement. They all chose those fit ted with gold rims as being the most I comfortable and the easiest to keep in the eye. They take cords also, for f it requires 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 dudes 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 people with sharpcut featuies. It is about time that the monocle came into its v own.w?London Globe. DRAW MILLIONS FROM LAND Immense Wealth Accruing to Fortunate Property Owners in the City of London, England. xne most eiaDorate ana ine mrgesi 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 feet fr0m top to bottom. The map is of the metropolitan dis. trict of London, embracing an area of : f 115 4square miles, and every house, . shop and piece of property in that area is shown. Nearly 40,000 separate estates are listed. J Some curious and interesting facts about London landlords are shown by : the great map. The weal Vilest estate is that of the duke of Westminster, 400 acres, with a rent roll of $15,000,- j 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 estate which covers four square miles, and Jhere are several exceeding two square miles. Lord Howard de Walden's estate brings in rents to the amount of $10,000,000 per an'_um, and the 250 acres belonging to the duke of Bedford rent for $10,500,000 per year. ; Lord Northampton, the duke of Norfolk ; Lord Portman and Earl Cadogan each own around 200 acres of city j property, and their rents run from j about $5,000,000 to $8,000,000 per year j each. Not a bad idea to let a city like London grow up around one's farm. Another Slap at "Mere Man." "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 ing our bit to make it still more desperate. A begowned dignitary over in Newark has decided (and unfortunate- j v ly his decisions have legal weight) j that the lesser portion of the marriage contract has no right to compensation j for work performed.in odd jobs around j the house on his wife's property, such j as carpentering and painting the; fence, or washing the dishes, or get-; ting up to warm the baby's milk when it begins to squall at 3 a. m. These things must be done free. He ought to be glad to do them. And if ^ me wne isn't aDie to persuaae mm 01 j / this the court will undertake to assist her.?Brooklyn Eagle. The Best of Reasons. The cartoonist who, the other day, pictured "Wonder What a Prince Thinks About?" probably wasn't far wrong when he showed his subject 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 j conclusion of the voyage these friends arranged a dinner in his honor in Lon-j don. It was a smart affair and a fash-! ionable company, but the prince did | not put in an appearance. The following mornin~ "he chairman of the committee askeu nim why he ' hadn't shown up.
