It accompanies a marked improvement in the hitherto crowded life of the lower deck. All the new vessels arc providing dining rooms in this department which compare not unfavorably with the same rooms in the first and second cabins. There are revolving chairs, there is a printed bill of fare and the dishes it Indicates are varied, palatable and cleanly served. In the sleeping accommodations there .are a comfort and a privacy provided which have hitherto been unknown. There is even a piano, and tho vessel's dally runs are printed In several languages precisely as in the cabins above. On the high seas as well as in the tenement world the under dog is coming in for a share of the world's progress, and there, as elsewhere, there is a definite, material gain for the upper dog resulting from his care for his nether brother.

THE IDLE WOMAN'S TIME COMPARISON OF FnEXCII UDV OF 1CSO AXD AMERICAN OF 1003. Tlme-Kllllnff of the Modern Woman of the Class Thnt Does Nothing In rnrtlcnlar. Geraldine Bonner, in San -Francisco Argenet. Some time since, in reading a book on the women of the French salons, I came on a description from one Mile. Scudery's novelj of the manner In which a siociety lady of that epoch passed her da3s. It struck me as particularly interesting, in that it was fo precisely similar to the way in which a modern young lady of the same sort spends the twenty-four hours. Here it is might it not be a description of the day of a rich American girl with fashionable affiliations? "Sleeps twelve hours three or four hours to dress herself two or three hours in consuming her divers repasts and all the rest of the time is spent in receiving people to whom she does not know what to say, or in paying visits to people who do not know what to say to her." Doubtless the amiable Scudery was somewhat sour when she wrote this. She was a dark, spidery little spinster, with a reputation (in a day when such things were regarded as useless luxuries) and a wondrously fluent pen. She knew her world well no one better. And we may be sure that such a paragraph as the above was not a spiteful female thrust at frivolous beauty, but was an unbiased statement of an interesting social development. Any one who has passed much time in the realms where well-to-do, well-educated, well-dressed women congregate, will sooner or later be puzzled by the question as to how a large quantity of them spend their time. Kill their time would be a better phrase. When one talks of spending time it suggests the- doling . out of a pVecloua commodity to be used to the irreatest possible advantage. Killing time is the getting rid of long, empty hours, which, Instead of galloping, lag listlessly by. The division of labor among women who are well provided for, luxuriantly environed, and all that port of thins, is one of the most uneven distributions that exist. Women with children no matter how large their means have an unending work and responsibility if they are faithful to their trust and honestly discharge their duty. Women with children, where the means are small, have a herculean labor, a task to try the strongest. Women with houses to keep either large homes full of servants or small ones where then is no servant at all have got a fair amount of honest toil to get through every day. To run a house well is no mean task, whether it be a mansion or a five-room flat. Below these we come to the women who have either no maternal or domestic responsibilities, or, having the latter, shirk them by refusing to maintain homes and living in hotels, or by letting the servants do the housekeeping. With these women go the unmarried "girls," 'as we politely call them, of from twentj'-eight up, who, having remained spinsters, have neither maternal cares nor domestic duties, and, being comfortably supported by a father, a brother, or a private income of their own, have no need to "hustle" for their bread. Skim off from these the women of energy and initiative, who become engrossed in enterprises such as charities, settlement work, some branch of philanthropy or study, and we have a residue whose days are spent in the manner Mile, tscudery describes. WHAT DO THEY DO? It has often been a cause of secret curiosity to me how many people I knew or knew .of disposed of the fifteen waking hours tho day gives us. I knew that they had no settled tasks, I knew that they had neither houses to run, children to bring up nor professions to follow. Yet they had fifteen hours to get through. Take from these three for meals, and it leaves twelve, unoccupied, long, portentous. How did they pass those twelve? How did they kill them? I thought vaguely of reading, but that could not be made to fill more than one or two. Many of the women who were the subject of speculation read nothing but the morning paper. Some looked through a novel or two a week, others bought half a dozen magazines once a month. But these literary excursions do not occupy a large part of the day. . , . - , I then asked a friend of mine an intelligent man for his opinion. He was cynical and inclined to scoff. "Why, dressing," he said; "four or five hours a day can be easily spent on dressing." 1 "denied that. Two hours a day for the toilet 'svas ample, and more than most women vain though they may bo spent on it. Give three-quarters of nn hour for the morning toilet, the same time for that before dinner and half an hour for a change of dress in the afternoon. The scorir laughed aloud at this. "Three-quarters of an hour! That's absurd. Why an hour can be easily put in Just finishing up last touches on the canvas, as it were." "You could paint the canvas as elaborately as Meissonler In that time," I demurred, for, truthfully speaking. 1 have known few women who took longer than an hour to dress; "Well, then, there's shopping." continued the cynic; "a whole afternoon can b profltablv and pleasantly put in In shopping." 'But you can't do that often. It would mean spending so much monej Even rich women can't go on a shopping orgy every day." "They don't buy anything. That's not shopping. Didn't you ever hear ul the woman who asked her husband for 50 cents

' The finest made that Is sold at a reasonable price. .Mada in all styles and wefghts to fit all forms. to go shopping with 40 for candy and soda water and 10 for car fares?" This really seemed plausible. I did onc know a woman In New York, who, describing the agreeab'.o simplicity of a friend taste, said of her: "Why, it amused her to gt down to Wanamaker's and buy a spool of thread." "BUYING" G LOTES. And I myself have a vivid recollection of going with a friend to buy a pair of gloves, and how we went Into every glove store down a long mile of .Broadway. In each place she looked at the gloeva, felt them, stretched them, asked as many. questions about them as a doctor does about a pathnt's health, and went out again without buying them. At the end of our walk I said, in a low-spirited tone: "Now, I suppose we'll go all the way back again, and you'll take the ptlr you liked best?"' "No." she said, dubiously, "1 didn't really like any of them very much. I think I'll go out to-morrow and see if I can do better 011 Sixth avenue." Of course one can get rid of a good many hours this way. As a tlmekllllng device It answers the purpose accurately, and If thla is what Is generally meant by "shopping" I can see how it can be made to fill so otherwise blank afternoon in a perfectly comfortable and comprehensive manner. From my own observation, I think the modern unoccupied lady finds the social diversion of calling as engrossing as did her ancestress In Mile, de Scudery'B time. When everybody had a day at home, oae could call all afternoon, from lunch to dinner, and always find one's victims sitting in the parlor, fattened for the sacrifice. Thoss were the days of short visits, when experts could get in ten calls from 1 to C, provided the recipients lived on or near car lines. The call was as arid of cheerful social intercourse as were those which tho spirituelle Scudery described. There was, a Omar Khayyam has It. "a little talk of thee and me," and then the visitor flitted, on. But it killed off the afternoon quickly and effectively. By 6 o'clock the dying day had not a kick left in It. One of the strangest things about these time-killing women is that they are always telling you how frightfully busy they are, how they hadn't a minute to call their own. They rush up to you effusively, and say how they long to see you. how to call upon you is one of the dearest wishes of their hearts, but they really haven't a minute in the day. You smile, and try to look as If you believed It. By an effort of will, you banish the expression of startled Incredulity from your lace; you even refrain from saying with an air of Innocent politeness: "What are you so busy about? I never knew before that you were really working at anything?" The women who are working at something don't often use the phrase about being so busy. They alo appear to have more time to cultivate the society they affect. When the work hours are hard and long, the play hours are carefully and profitably arranged. Women who are engrosslngly engaged in domestic life or professional work are always easier to find, simpler of access, than women whose live are arranged entirely on a society basl. A TESTED TIME-KILLER. Ono of the most universally known and practically tested ways of passing time among "the frightfully busy" Is "sitting round and talking." Hours romp joyously past when one Is thus occupied. You "sit around and talk" after breakfast, after lunch, and after dinner. From three to five hours, according to the staying capacity of the sitters, can be worked through in this manner. The subject of the talk does not matter. It can range through the fields of art, literature, science, religion, scandal, politics, dress. Sometimes the talkers rock in rocking chairs and sew. I once had a friend who asked me to lunch and said: ."And bring your work, and after lunch we can sit round and have a good talk." I was afraid to go, and said 1 couldn't bring my work, as I was making a lamp shade of the circumference of an average umbrella, which was all a lie. I always supposed sewing occupied a great deal of the time of the unoccupied women, but I hear now that such is not the case. My masculine friend, when I suggested It, was scornful at my ignorance. He said nobody ever sewed now except thrifty bachelors, who did their mendlnff on Sunday, and people who were paid, f certainly have known women who made most of their own clothes, but here again it is true they were poor, and the clothessmaking was squeezed In at odd times. Ilka tne oacneior s mcnaing. ine prosperous women of independent means do not sew at all. except when "the sitting round" process is In progress, and then it Is in a desultory fashion, because the talking is what one la "sitting round" for. the sewlag is merely a sort of decorative adjunct. All things considered, we find that the way Mile. Scudery divided up the day of the lady of leisure was just about th same in her epoch as it la in ours. Forhaps she gives an undue length of time for sleep. Eight to nine hours is the average allowance for nn American woman, though if you count the hour or two spent in waking up before the actual getting up takes place, you can run the resting half of the day to nearly her figure. The two or three hours spent In consuming her food Is a very moderate allowance; one often sits two hours over a dinner alone, and the three or four to dress herself, which, to me. seemed excessive, is evidently not by any means an unusual length of time to spend in front of the glass. Taxation of Railway Care. SPRINGFIELD. 111., Oct. 27. In an opinion in the suit of the Union Tank-line Company against the Board of Review of Chicago the court holds that cars in transportation, other than those of railroad companies, cannct be assessed only In the State in which the company's headquarters are located.
