UNTRAMMELED BY FASHION.

When Elizabeth Patterson Bonnparto
f Baltimore, wife of Napoleon's broth
er nnd grandmother of our present
Secretary of Uio Navy, returned to her
tiatlvo country to nmko It lier home,
he Blgnnllzed by one chnractcrlstlc net
her farewell to the elegance and tasto
of the gay European capitals In which,
If never recognized ns a royal princess,
the had always, with her Hashing wit
and extraordinary beauty, reigned aa
a social queen.
Sho bought In Paris quantities of
rich clothing of all kinds, and especial
ly twelve Incomparable bonnets, which
Bho declared wero to last her for tho
rest of her life. They did not do so
nt least the bonnets did not because
Bho lived to be !1, and wore them In
nil weathers; but as long as they last
ed she donned them faithfully, un
troubled by changes In the fashion.
She was long familiar to the eyes of
her fellow citizens as the most pic
turesque and Interesting of old ladles,
with wonderful eyes scarcely dimmed,
and aged features still bearing traces
of unusual beauty, quaintly framed by
the poke brim and curling feathers of
Homo one of the famous dozen bon
nets. Women of less note than Madaino
Bonnparto have sometimes, like her,
Bovered suddenly the bonds of fashion.
A. New England family of live sisters
once did so. Retiring from city luo
to the seclusion of a country home
stead, they, too, purchased before mov
ing clothes enough to last a lifetime.
Theirs, moreover, which were bought
during the most extravagant period of
crinoline, really did last.
Long after the hideous horrors of
that time had abated they were never
teen with skirts undlstended by enor
mous hoops. Even when the others
were In the garden weeding and dig
ging In the necessary freedom of loose
gown and Jacket, one sister, carefully
hooped, sat alert at the window, ready
to warn them to lly should a passer-by
come down the road.
The last survivor of the five was
long ailing before her denth, but neith
er for doctor nor nurse would sho
modify her costume.
"When I take to my chamber, I'll
take to a bedgown," she told them,
tnrtly, "and when I take to my colhn,
I'll take to a shroud; but as long as I
can sit against pillows In my parlor
and receive my' visitors I will dress
ns a lady should dress. Othors may
do as thoy please; to my eyes, a worn'
an without her hoop-skirt looks undlg
nlllcd, If not Improper. I do not up
prove of gowns that hnng loose like an
old coat on a scarecrow."
Sho was not the only Instance of an
old-fashioned lady shocked at a dcsir
nble Innovation In style. When tha
fashion of drawing the hair low over
the ears was first waning, and women
began to brush It back more freely and
naturally, Miss Ilazcltlne, the onco
famous principal of Bradford Acad
emy, warned her girls that none of
them would bo allowed to take part
In the graduation exercises who should
adopt the new style, and venture to
immodestly expose her ears.'.' Youth's

"Don't let that Worry you, my dear,"
replied George, suavoly, "hereafter wo

"But, George, papa also complains

" Yonr 11)0." Sale.
The total distributive 81!8 for t003
exceeded
IjlUOO, 000,000.
This total Is realized from tho sale
of fresh meats (beef, mutton and
pork), provisions, produce (poultry,
butter and eggs), soaps, glues, oils,
tones, fertilizers, feathers, casings,
hides, wools, pelts and other by-prod
ucts derived from cattle, sheep, hogs
and poultry.
Mnrlii of Profit.
The Industry is operated on a mar-
gin of less than 2 cents to each dol-
ur of sales. Swift & Co. do not sell
at retail. Their entire output Is sold
at wholesale to many thousands of
dealers In various parts of the world.
There are hundreds of local slaughter
ers throughout the United States, who
buy their live stock In competition
with the packer doing an Interstate
and International business. Likewise
the packer must sell in competition
with tho local slaughterers. There are
no secret processes In the Industry, no
complicated and expensive factories,
and as live stock can be purchased In
almost every hamlet and city, and the
preparation of moatu Is simple in the
extreme, local slaughtering will long
remain a factor In the production of
fresh meats and provisions.
Kconontlc Advantage.).
The large packing houses will, how
ever, always have these advantages:
Locations at the chief live stock cen
ters, with the' opportunity to buy the
best live stock; manufacturing in large
quantities, at the minimum of ex
pense; utilization of all waMo mate
rial; refrigeration; mechanical appli
ances; highly elllclont business man
agement. These advantages are re
flected In the quality of the packer's
output, a quality that ban reached Its
highest development In the products
bearing the name and brand of
"Swift."

Louis, St. Joseph, St. Paul and Fort
Worth. Tho same methods of purchas
ing cattle, sheep and hogs prevail at
all cities. At Chicago, which Is the
largest market, there are about two
hundred and fifty buyers, representing
packers, local slaughterers In various
cities, and exporters. Of this number,
less than a score are employed by
Swift & Company.
Tho farmer ships his live stock to
Chicago, consigns them to a commis
sion firm at the Union Stock Yards,
who sees that they are unlonded and
put In pens. Then the buyers Inspect
them, make their offers to the commis
sion dealer, who accepts or rejects as
bis Judgment dictates. All buying must
be Mulshed at H o'clock each day, and
the buyer must pay spot cash. If the
commission man has no satisfactory
offers, he can hold his stock over to
the next day. He gets his commission
from the fanner, and naturully strives
to get thei highest possible price for his
client.
Wholesale Dint rlbut In;; IIouhc.i.
A wholesale distributing house Is a
giant refrigerator, but instead of
shelves there are trolley rails, from
which are suspended hooks to hang the
carcasses. Some of tho houses cost as
much ns a hundred thousand dollars to
build and equip. As a rule they are of
pressed brick, the lusides being lined
lloor, walls and celling with highly
polished hardwood. The floors are cov
ered dally with fresh sawdust and all
are kept .spotlessly clean. There are
over three hundred of these wholesale
houses in various cities of the United
States, and the public is always wel
come to visit them.

All the Swift & Company plants are
