BY NANNIE OU know as well as Ben Franklin that “honesty is the best poligy,” but all the same, it is undoubtedly an embar- rassing ‘virtue when unacom- panied by other qualities necessary to the transaction of a business deal— to wit: Way back in March a woman mailed her income tax statement to the collector of internal revenue, happy to have the thing off her mind. A few weeks later back comes her money order with a notice that she had paid $2 and a something over, toc much. The post office re- funded the over- due and she made out another order for the proper amount, and rushed it on. ‘Along in early July she received an: other announcement Ih_fll she h:l!(] overpald her tax liabilities by $6.29, which would be sent upon receipt of her statement as to whether or not she was in arrears for her tax of 1924. “Please make statement on space below and return.” The woman inclosed with this statement a _re- minder of the previous receipt of $2— forgot the bit over—and two days later received a check for $6.29, with the following explanation from Galen L. Tait: “An examination of your income tax account discloses that your cor- rect tax liability is $18.87. Inasmuch as you have pald $25.16, a check for the difference is inclosed herewith. A collector of internal ® revenue doubtless gets a fighting thrill out of his job'of compelling a magnate to turn in a tax that properly repre- sents the income he is trying to hide, but what a yawning contempt he must register when dealing with the honest but dumb! You may know for your ownself that no matter how fat your pay en- velope or healthy your savings ac- coynt, the unexpected return of even so ¥mall a sum as $6.29 takes on the value of fairy gold, and the woman who can buy anything her fancy calls for, probably for-the reason that her affections are somewhat limited, en- joyed almost a child's delight in thinking up something she would get —something that she would never dream of buying under prosaic condi- fons. HoFhere is that intriguing lttle Shef- fleld dish that Judge Mary O'Toole uses for breakfast, with the bacon dry and crisp in the silvery grooves and the gravy in a little pool. She might add a little more to the check and get one for herself, only she had three right pretty dishes already. Or she might get “one of those dear little——" And that ended her bit of childish dreamings, for the money went, and as you wouldn't be inter- ested, why bother you any more? After all, while we might be happler, it is doubtful if we would be near so useful to humanity if all our dreams came true. A LADY of golden intentions had just finished a little talk before a welfare meeting. She had deplored the shocking extravagance of present- day styles and longed for some millen- nium day when her sex would dress with the simplicity of the women of the Bible. During the discussion that followed, a guest from outside was asked to make a few remarks. Which she did, like this: “Madame president, and ladies: It took 75 yards of hand-woven wool to make =, dress for Abraham's wife, Sarah. 1Its seams were defined with an embroidery in gay yard, hit-and- miss design, like the lamp-mat stitch which, long ago, children used to Knit with pins on a spool. The sleeves were long enough to do duty as court trains and there was a girdle of Soft crimson silk long enough for a piano scarf, with enough left over for a sash. The dress itself was of an invisible blue. She wore heavy jewels of dull-colored stones set in silver pen- dant from silver chains. These chains were not Intended for ornamentation, but signified Sarah's standing in her community and in her husband’s home. “When Jacob fell in love with Re- bekah at the well she was wearing a flowing-sleeved, fullrobed gown of flux-colored cotton, or maybe linen, with a breastplate of embroideries in reds, greens and vellows, each with its symbolic color value, and a long blue sash. I know all this to be true, because the garments were a part of & collection of historic costumes du- plicating those worn by the women of the Bible and brought here by the late Mme. Mountford, who spent ye in gathering these authoritative trea ures at a cost of $50,000. When I saw them they were on display Methodist University. Mme. Mount- ford, as you may or may not know, was born in the Holy Land of Euro' pean parents. She was a tall, strong, wonder-woman of commanding per- sonality, with rich, ruddy-colored hair, and in her robe of coarse, snowy linen and silver chain girdle bespoke her rearing in the biblical atmosphere of the East. Christ was her compatriot as well as her spiritual Father, and one feels that she must personally know Him in that Holy Land of Eternity, where she joined him years ago. She loved her Bible women, but she would tell you, as I am telling for her, that so far as money and much sewing and fancy work meant in those primitive days, the women of the Old and New Testaments were as * x Xk % is suitable for every never fails to impart dition. Purity. AROUND THE CITY _LANCASTER. ars in the | the their fashions as women of today.” The guest was awarded her own little share of applause, and another woman who recalled the Mountford prodigal _in collection spoke of a wedding gar- ment that cost Mme. Mountford more than $1,200. E “It was of pink silk, jeweled laces, and a bolero of blue velvet, flowered in spun gold. but I recall no garb of any famous woman anywhere better worth study- ing as an example of extravagance gone mad.” There was more to it, but enough is always enough. However, since a moral should be tacked on to all ser- mons, it is not a wise proceeding to give even a “little talk” without be- ing sure of your facts to begin with. * X kX ERE is a friendly warning for any lady who may have swiped a certain umbrella at a certain matinee. It was a_good umbrella that cost “between $6 and $7.” . The owner didn’t pin herself down to an exact price; imagination requires latitude. Moreover, she may have mislaid that umbrella, herself, but you know— everyhody knows—that it is always more comfortable to shift blame to other shoulders than our own—little heritage from Father Adam. “I know she took it, dearfe’—she was confiding details to an entirely strange young woman who_listened with gentle patience and Madonna eves—"I know she took it, because she sat right next to me, and all she had to do was to reach out her hands and—Oh, I don’t know how anybody could do an un-Christian thing like that, do you, dearie? All I hope is the first time she raises it the light- ning strikes her dead.” Which seems to make it advisable for any lady who has swiped an um- brella within the last week to pass it on to any enemy she may have on hand. Electric _storms, backed by what dear Jean Libbey used to call a fatal curse, is liable fo be dangerous this time of year. * ok Kk THIS “"pen picture of Lafayette Park fn Summer is given to the column by a lady from the friendly unknown: A young girl lay on the grass of the park. The shade of a chestnut tree was about her. The limbs of the tree bent protectingly above her and the leaves almost touched her prettily bobbed head. Pigeons surrounded her as she slept, her head on her arms, her limbs stretched with careless grace, the light-colored stockings con- trasting with the dark gray silk of her dress. Presently she lifted her head, leaned it on one arm, and with one hand fed the birds as they fluttered around her. A tall old spruce, a friendly maple and the thick-spreading chestnut cast their shade on an iron urn set amid pink begonias, and white magnolias wafted their fragrance from blossomy trees around. Oblivious of the attention she was attracting, with the pigeons flying mbout her artistic figure, she rested and meditated the Summer afternoon away. Traces Locomotive Design. The history of the locomotive build- ing industry can be traced by the ex- hibits of the Baldwin Locomotive Works in the Palace of Transporta- tion at the Sesquicentennial interna- tional exhibiton, now beng held in Philadelphia.. The exhibit includes an engine, built by Mathias Baldwin in 1830, the “Big Mogul,” a locomotive weighing 75 tons, which was awarded a prize at the Centennial Exposition 50 years ago, and a modern freight engine, which weighs 350 tons.
