Mistress or style. An article in a periodical calls atten- tion to the degree of M. S.—Mistress of Style—as that most coveted by all women, outranking, at least so far as admiration is concerned, allthe A. M. ’s. and Ph.D. ’s. in existence. The statement leads back to the old query, Do college tual exercise care for such mundane matters as looks and clothing? It may safely be asserted that they do. may be no definite, outspoken “views” upon‘ the matter, but the principle that a woman, to make the most of her op-‘ portunities,‘ be they intellectual or other- wise, must both look and dress just as well as she can is universal.

' PARIS, Sept. 23.——-Mail advises received here from Madagascar reveal a deplorable condition of affairs in that island. In hos- pitals calculated for the accommodation of 250 men are crowded 600 sick French soldiers, lying upon improvised bunks and but insuflieiently attended by doctors and nurses. In each hospital hundreds of_pa- tients are lying groaning upon the bare ground and sufiering for lack of medicine . and food, while the fllthiness that prevails everywhere about them is indescribable. The doctors are doing the best they can for the alleviation of the sufferings Of the sick,” and the mortality is surprisingly small when the existing conditions are taken into consideration. Very few of the patients, however, recover com letely, the most of those attacked with 11 uses being so reduced by anaemia. and so subject to strange hallucinations as to be quite in- capacitated for further service in the field. In many cases the bodies of French sol- diers have been devoured by dogs before they could be buried. In a letter to the minister of war Gen- eral Duchane openly admits that the hard- ships of [the march and bad commissary . service have sent 3, 000 soldiers to hospital, and that the bad climate is prostrating the troops. - Ministers Fear to Tell the Truth. PARIS, Sept. 23.—It is learned that the cabinet council which was held on Thurs- day adjourned until Tuesday in order to await the reports of the war office on the enormous sickness and mortality among the French troops in Madagascar. It is alleged that the ministers dread the dis- closure of the whole truth. A NEWSPAPER FAILS. The Kansas City Times Placed In the Hands of a. Receiver.
