INVITED BIDS_ON WARDROBE Woman tat Out tha Work to Draao makor Who Submitted tho Loweat, Figure*. lotting out the making of a sum mer wardrobe to the lowest bidder is a new wrinkle to one dressmaker who was recently invited to participate in such a contest. ‘*1 have a number of gowns, sep arate blouses and shirtwaists which I wish made up by July 1/’ wrote the woman whoh had the contract to let. “Will you kindly call at my house for particulars and make an estimate of charges?” The dressmaker went and named a figure. When she came back she said she never felt so important in her life. “It was like bidding for a govern ment job,” she said, “and when I agreed to make up so many yards of foulard, dimity and linen for a cer tain sum I felt as if I were signing a contract to drape the columns of the library or post office or some oth er public building. That illusion was heightened bv the size of the customer who is stately enough for statuary and solid enough for ma sonry. There is only a small chance of my getting the work, for she in vited scores of other dressmakers to compele. some of whom are likely to underbid me, but if T do get it it ; will be the first order I ever obtained i on those businesslike terms.” PROTECTS THE DAD’S RIGHTS Ellis Parker Butler Organizes the Fond Father’s Oop-de-Baby Asso ciation of America. At the first sign of an attempt to standardize and sterilize the babios, says KUis Parker Butler, writing in Success Magazine, 1 organized the j “Fond Fathers’ Oop-de-babv Asso ciation of America.” For thousands i of years fathers have been permitted J to oop-de-babv unrestrained, mid j this right was one of the first rights ' attacked bv the advocates of the au tomatic baby. I considered it a dou-j bio blow, at the baby and at the fa-1 thor. and resented it as such. If a father may not oop his own baby, what is the world coming to? • i Hoping the hahv is a fathers greatest pleasure. It is the act of grasping tlie baby under the arms, j tossing the baby into the air and catching it on its down-trip, while the words.“oop-de-bahv■!"’ are repeat-j ed at each toss. This is repeated un- j til the hahv is hysterical, or drops on the floor by accident. It is then handed to its mother. MACREADY AND THE BARON. A scapegrace baron pawned the coronet he bad worn at the corona tion of Queen Victoria. Having a slight acquaintance with Macready, he wrote to the actor offering to sell the pawnticket, and suggested that the redeemed item of headgear would he an interesting theatrical “property.” Macready replied with characteristic sarcasm that if the thing had been owned by a nobleman of mark who had got into atraitened circumstances he would have favor ably considered the application. But he did not think his stock of “prop erties” would be improved by the ad dition of a gilded coronet that had been worn by a numskull anil pawned bv’a profligate. * * •*’■' - - - OLD CORONATION CUSTOMS. The practice of running the foun tains and conduits with wine on coronation day was abandoned after tire reign of Queen Elizabeth, but another old custom was observed up to the coronation of George IV. Aft er the king and the company had de parted from the banquet in West minster hall the doors were thrown i open and the people rushed in and cleared the tables of everything— victuals, cloths, plates, dishes, etc., 1 all vanished in a few minutes. And. as Sir Walter Scott tells ns, the no bility were not above taking away the saltcellars and spoons. And'at the recent coronation they received the chairs on which they sit in the abbey.
