Anything and every that comes thels way is fair game. 1t matters not that most of it is of no earthly use to the collectors, who after nursing the mass carefully for a whole afternoon or evening, eventuaily plich most if not all of the collecâ€" ton into the home garbage can. But it is something for nothing and that seems to make it worth while: _ Long queues nrpto'lo were seen standing patiently awaiting their turn to be presented with a tiny bottle of scent. That it may have taken a half hour to. get from the bottom of the line to the top mattered not, just so long as eventually they got some:bing for noâ€" thing. Of course in order to get into the proper frame of mind to become an active collector at an exhihicion one must figure his or her time as worth nothfag.
