THE season has brought in and introduced successfully a number of hats very simply trimmed which are nevertheless quite elaborate enough. The bodies of these hats are made of beautiful braids, of which there are so many different patterns, combined with folded malline, matching them in color. The result is exquisitely soft and light shapes which look better when simply trimmed than otherwise. The Napoleon shape at the bottom of the group is in silk braid, king's blue in color. A close shirring hem of silk gives the breaking its width and giving an airy touch that is lovely. A shaded quill, blue to gray, and a double fan of velvet ribbon, in the same colors, are mounted at the front. 'single flat band of the blue velvet: bon extends over the back trimmer: onto the crown. This is all the trimming and nothing more is
Perfectly Good and Up-to-Date Garment May Be Made at Comparatively Small Expense.
The all-over lace waist, which is a perfectly good left-over from the wardrobe of two years ago, may be worked into a this year's garment of quite a good and reliable style by making as a part of it a white cotton volle skirt with a paneled back and front, the panels extending up over the shoulders, where they are seamed together.
This will leave the side gores of the skirt bolted in.
A complete garment you will now have, which is to be slipped on over the lace blouse.
How satisfying to be able to use a good garment without making it completely over!
If desirable, the collar and cuffs may be removed, leaving the lace bodice collarless and with three-quarter sleeves.
Motifs cut from the discarded lace may possibly be so shaped that they can be used as insets upon the upper or waist portion of the long volle panels.
Wavy Locks.
Even the straightest locks in the world can be made wavy by the simple process of wetting the hair with alcohol and pinning it in little loops tight down to the head. Do not put the alcohol on your hands or brush, but use a little wad of absorbent cotton and dab the alcohol lightly over the hair. Then, taking a strand at a time, pinch it into loops about two inches apart and pin each loop snugly down. This can be done across the back of the head as well as on the top and sides, and the hair will wave and be perfectly dry in about half an hour, especially if a thin piece of velling is tied all around the head as tightly as possible.
The Bath as a Tonic.
Some women say that they have not the vitality to withstand a daily bath. That is usually the case when the bath is considered a bother and too much strength is expended in the scrubbing and rubbing. The most beneficial bath is the quick one that is over within three minutes. Such a bath is a tonic. It is not necessary to get into the tub. Merely go over the body speedily, bathing away the dust and secretions of the skin, rinsing quickly, and rubbing briskly until the skin fairly tingles. If one is nerve-tired, a hot bath just before going to bed will act as a soothing, resilient comforter.
No Cosmetic Like Water.
One woman, whose skin is the admiration of all, washes her face with lukewarm water, the best toilet soap and a piece of soft flannel each inght upon retiring and rubs it gently upward with an old linen towel. Then she sips a cupful of hot water. In the morning she dashes cold water over her face and neck and pats it dry with a turkish towel and sips a cupful of hot water again. She has never used a cosmetic, and attributes the beauty of her skin to the generous use of water, both internally and externally.
At the left a rose colored turban shows a cleverly wrought brim in which a long strip of braid edged with folds of maline does double service. It covers the brim and ornaments it at the same time. A ribbon plume made of a series of loops is of rose-colored satin ribbon. A silver ornament finishes the trim. This is one of the prettiest models shown in turbans.
At the right a smart street hat is made of satin braid and has the edge of the brim finished with shirred maline. The hat is in a light olive, while the ribbon trim is a changeable blue and green taffeta. In this model the crown is a square of the braid draped across the frame. The idea is original and clever. The facing is of shirred maline and a ribbon bow finishes the back.

Raised Eyebrows.
There is little use to massage for wrinkled forehead when lines are constantly formed from the habit of raising the eyebrows with every word. Often one is unconscious of this trick and should ask to be reminded. This may provoke unpleasantness, so a safer way is to use adhesive plaster. Whenever one is to stay in the house for several hours at a stretch paste lengthwise strips of adhesive plaster at outer corners of eyebrows and just above the nose. Paste with face in repose and each time the brows are elevated the drawing of the plaster, joins the memory.

DARROW SCORES DR. WASHINGTON!
THE GREAT CHICAGO ATTORNEY OF ORGANIZED LABOR URGES THE
AMALGAMATION OF RACESI
Speaking to Our People He Says, We Need to Learn How to Live Easier Lives as far as Hard Work Is Concerned—Says We Should Inter-Marry—Williams' $1,100 a Week.
New York City—Chicheve S. Darrow, the great Socialist lawyer of Chicago, in an address Saturday night at the second annual conference of the National Negro Committee. In Cooper union, wiped out the color line and urged race amalgamation an the solution of the so-called race problem. He criticised Booker T. Washington and told his hearers that what the Negro needs is some one to race it not to work. He also said: "It may be hard way in the future, but intermarriage between the races finally will settle all difficulties as it has in the case of the Irish and Germans and other people who formerly had to be kept apart in order to preserve the peace.
Not a Question of Color?
Not a Question of Color?
"It is not the color which causes the distinction between Negroes and 'what people'. The real barrier is the fact that Negroes are more slaves and that today they are the ranks of labor. It is a labor question rather than a race problem, and the way for the Negro to obtain recognition is to cast his lot holdly with the poor and fight with them and for them. The cause of the poor is his cause—and his cause is theirs." Booker T. Washington, the speaker described as "that modest, self-abasing optimist who builds industries and lays bricks for the 'white man' and to perform manual labor of the lowest kind."
Some Views on Labor.
"What you really need," he continued. "is some one to teach you not to work. Your people have worked from the beginning. You have earned your bread by the sweat of your brow so long that now when you ask for an increase in wages it is considered ludicrous and is regarded in the same light as if some one demanded that a horse's wages should be increased." Bert. Williams Gets $1,100 a week. In arguments before Justice McCall a few days ago in the supreme court, it developed that Bert Williams is receiving what is undoubtedly the largest salary ever paid an Afro-American performer on the stage. He is getting $1,100 a week in vaudeville. The court action is a suit by F. Ray Comstock, a producing manager, to restrain Williams from appearing under any except his management. Comstock claims Williams has a $300 a week. He seeks to prevent Williams from appearing in Ziegfeld's "Follies of 1916."

Appointment
St. Louis, Mo.-Gov. Hadley of this state, in an address here last week to the state meeting of the G. A. R., said, among 'other things: "The wounds of the war are healed and a reunited country gives today just what it needs." Just as the north and of the south who fought for the cause they believed to be just.
But in this spirit of sectional friendship we must not permit politicians arriving for political success to arouse race prejudices and hatred. The men who gave freedom to 3,000,000 slaves should insist that the president deal with in a spirit of oppression or injustice. Instead of oppressing the Negro and trying to humiliate him by discriminatory laws, we should try to so educate and assist him that he will become a useful and law-abiding citizen. Gov. Hadley very promptly ensured that Missouri legislature some time ago to deprive Negro fraternities of the right to use the symbols and signs of secret orders because such were being used by similar orders of certain "white" fraternities. He said such proscription was unnecessary, that they had to encourage our people and only allowed courage our people in their work of doing good.

West Point, N. Y., "When Prince Tsai, military expert of the Chinese empire, visited West Point recently he expressed the greatest admiration for the squad of Afro-American soldiers stationed here. Every one of the soldiers is a man. Half of them are tall, alert, and hard-working. Half of them scared by battles they have been through. They constitute the most perfectly drilled troop in the United States army. They formed Prince Tsai's bodyguard of honor for a portion of his stay, and he could not keep him. "I have never been troops that could be compared to these men," said Prince Tsai, the officers who surrounded him. "We all proud of them," said one of the "for they are proud of themselves" "consider them the best soldiers," said another "were sent here because of their uniform excellence."
THE. "UPRISING." POLITICAL
The Trouble in Cuba but a Contention for Proper Recognition.
Havana, Cuba—So far the net result of the recent "proteale arrests and judgements of Afro-Cubans has been to drive into the Conservative camp many thousands of those very voters who constituted the bulk of the party which elected President Felipe Calderón. The titles have appeared in General Estaoz's Pervision, and the General himself for months past has denounced the government from the sump in unmeasured terms, there appears to he no evidence that he at any time, advocated the forcible overthrow of the government or any rupture of the government. The Afro-Cubans and "white" Cubans that are normal throughout Cuba. What he demanded, as all other colored politicians have done, was the assignment of offices to the Afro-Cubans proportionate to their numbers and to the services rendered by the race in the war of the revolution. There have been many instances of airness, save such as arose among the "whites," who were panic-streaked by the alarming rumors which were circulated all over the country, largely by prejudiced Americans.
No Color Line Here!
Toronto, Canada—Dr. Prather, a man of family and a good practitioner, is connected with the immigration of face here, representing the F. S. immigration department. As he has held this appointment five years at least he has been a Medley operator. Will Medley, a young man residing here, is chief operator, in the telegraph department of the Canadian Pacific railroad here.
An interesting incident followed his appointment. When Medley received his appointment five of the "white" operators employed refused to work under him because he was a Negro. Mr. Kent, the man above, very friendly and engaged new men. Subsequently the dissatisfied ones were only too glad to get back, and Medley is still chief operator and making good.
Good for Supt. Ross!
Springfield, O.—A few cool high school graduates at New Carlisle are trying to draw a color line. Supt. Ross wamed them who have a "chair picture" of a white student and students refused because it would include one Afro-American girl. Supt. Ross insists that he will refuse to hang any other than a class picture beside the other class pictures in the classroom. The teacher, a southerner or prejudiced southern sympathetic pupil in the graduating class.
Given a Carnegie Medal.
Williams, an In-Law — Mrs. Martha Generals, an aged Afro-American woman of this city, has been granted a bronze medal and a pension of $20 a month by the Carnegie Hero commission for her bravery in saving the life of Little John Walkes, "white," a broken wire on the street which was heavily charged with electricity, and was being badly burned. Mrs. Generals resumed him. In doing so she was severely shocked herself.
Joe Gans, a Sick Man.

Intermarriage Common.
Paris, France—Marriages between "white" women and Negroes have been so common here as to excite no comment. As is well known, many prominent South Americans are Negroes. In Paris they form a most distinguished and most aristocratic society. Prominent among them are Guzman Blanco, Manuel Yriarte, Miguel Campos and Antonio Anchez. Other Negroes with white wives are natives of French colonies. An event that aroused the attention of the race of Prince Dhuleep Singh and Lady Anne Coventry. The bridegroom was a very dark-brown colored man and the bride a very handsome, fair-haired English girl. She is a daughter of the man whose name was Viscount Deerhurst, married Miss Virginia Bonyyne, an American.

Prince Tsai, we salute you!
Has the Columbus (O.) American Independent, Dr. J. A. Robbins, editor, renounced Democracy? It would seem so. Good!
There is far "more truth than poetry" in what Clarence S. Darrow says in our New York letter on page 1, today. Read it carefully—and think.
Gov. Hadley of Missouri seems to have the right idea of some things, at least, that concern greatly the future progress of the race. See St. Louis letter elsewhere in this paper, it is encouraging.
There are a few of them left, anyhow. Supt. Ross of the New Carlisle, O., high school, is one. May the number increase, is our prayer. They are so greatly needed in this day and time. See Springfield, O., letter in this paper.
Sam Langford's success as a puglist, is really remarkable. There seems to be no stopping him these days. The best feature, however, is the fact that Sam is saving his money, having cleared nearly $30,000 on his recent contests.
"White" soldiers of Fort Fremont, near Beaufort, S. C., got a much-needed though costly lesson last week, the moral of which is, it does well, always afford "fun" and "pleasure" to "pick on" even the downtrodden. "The worm turns," sometimes, you know.
It seems that President Taft is making them "sit up and take notice." —Mobile (Ala.) Weekly Press.
He certainly has been one continuous screaming joke—a lazy, mushy and very harmful one, too. The greatest this country, fortunately, has ever bad
The Bacheh-Machke "state" won at the Republican primaries, last Tuesday, except in the case of Senator Phare, who won the insolvency judge candidacy over the "slate" candidate, S. J. Kornhauser. It does not require a prophet nor the son of a prophet to foresee what is going to happen to most of the local and state Republican tickets, including several down-the-state congressmen, this fall.
There are undoubted indications that many prominent Ohio Republicans, "white," are "pulling" for the state to go Democratic this fall. They are willing to see (gov.) Judson Harmon re-elected providing there is a Democratic majority in the state assembly. They are just that maliciously anxious to secure the defeat of United States Senator Charles Dick. Shame!
Rev. W. O. Harper, editor of the Dayton (O.) Outlook, is publishing a portrait of President Taft each week underneath which is the following sentence:
"The man who is throwing some good size plums among the colored
Change the word "plumbs" for the word "bricks," Friend Harper, and stop misleading our people of Dayton. You are too bright and too good a raceman to permit such a thing, even if it will curry favor with the Republican "political machine" of your city. Taft has been appointed more than a year and is appointed to office just a few Americans—Judge Terrrell and Recorder Johnson. He has kicked out of the service, hundreds of our men.
The American correspondents' "Cuban Race War" has degenerated into a farce. The American newspaper men, prejudiced hybrids, on that island, ought to be "fired bodily," because such harmful lies, for sensational purposes principally, are calculated to stir up serious trouble eventually for the Cuban government — just what many American business men and others are trying to home in, and therefore, President Gomer would be perfectly justified in sending from Cuba all such, whether newspaper correspondents or not. They are a positive menace to the continued peace and prosperity of the island republic. Their recent "Cuban Race War" was nothing more nor less than a perfectly legitimate and proper effort upon the part of leading Afro-Cubans to get the recognition in the conduct of the government they are justly entitled to or their numberless, striking loyalty in all their efforts for Cuban liberty. And they will get it, too, before the end of the chapter.
In this one respect, at least, they differ greatly from their Afro-American brethren of today. It will pay us to watch carefully this Afro-Cuban effort, led by the fearless and able General Estenoz, editor of the Havana Pervison. May it succeed is our earnest wish and belief.
AS TO THE TIME AND PLACE.
The following, a portion of an inters

view with a local Negro, one "Noomy" Brasher, is the most harmful portion of a column article that appeared in last week Monday's Cleveland Daily Leader and which certainly was condemned, and very properly, too, by about all who saw or heard of it: "We, the members of the Cleveland Association of Colored Men, were here in the city, where a colored man has lost his job because he did not take sufficient interest in his work, was negligent or made some mistake in conduct. We want to give our people the opportunity to give for this purpose will provide these lectures.
"The footmen are being displaced in front of the big down-town stores because they make 'social centers' of their working places, the barbers are losing out for the same reason and because they do not put brains in work."
Walters Are Losing:
The waiters are losing because they are not tidy in appearance and thoughtful in the execution of their duties. It was said that the Caterers' association should have written waiters of the importance and necessity of being progressive and clean.
The chauchains are in danger of being displaced because too many of their employees use their time of their employers for joy rides' along Central avenue and East 9th street, taking girls, drinking men and others hurrahing through the thoroughtaers.
On the entire Leader article, including above excerpt, we commented a follow in our last issue:
Most of that publication in last Monday's Cleveland Leader was a very unfortunate thing. Strange that some of our people never learn that parading in the daily newspapers the weakness of individual members of the race (as if they were racial weaknesses) that are common to members of all classes of people, always does our people more harm than all others combined. And why do they do it? That a few nondescript and in the main "yesterday" fjimcrow Negroes may bask in the limelight of a little cheap daily newspaper notoriety. Our local waiters, barbers, footmen and chauffeuses ought to get together and chase that color of color out of town. They lack not only discretion and a little good common sense, but are absolutely dangerously harmful to the progress of the large and hard working class of our people in this city. Their output, in the main, in last Monday's Leader reminds us very forbly of that portion of Dr. Booker T. Washington's lecture, a year or so later. Nashville or Memphis, in which he took occasion to publicly or indirectly according to common report, to warn the people who employed Nogro cooks of the latter who were carrying away food, etc. through their employees' back, doors. Shame, O shame! Good Lord, how long, O how long must a long-suffering people be unladen by fjimcrow Negroes?
What we wish to emphasize at this time and reiterate is, that such criticism and comment as is contained in the Leader except, reprinted above, may be all right. If corrected, it will be certainly, ALL WOONG IN THE "WHITE" PRESS for reasons obvious and others stated in The Gazette editorial published last week and reprinted above in this article. "There is a time and a place for all things" is an old and very true saying that is peculiarly applicable in this instance—when it comes to making public such criticism and com-
Then, too, there is not near so much ground for the invidious Brasher criticism as he would have one believe. When he is older, knows more, and is a resident of Cleveland longer, he will be in a better position to state facts as to the barbers, waiters, footmen and chauffeurs. More: he is hardly the person, from any viewpoint, to rushing into the daily practice of criticism of anybody in this community where there are many of those who are same employees he would choose who have had success in their various avocations. More than can be said of some of their would-be critics.
BULLWEST Man is a Suicide
Birmingham, Mo. — Webster M. Samuels, known as one of Andrew Carnegie's "brilliant young men," shot and killed himself at the home of brother-in-law because of his wife. His wife, who was Miss Anna McClure of Cleveland, O., was down stairs at the time. Samuels had been confined to his bed for six months.

"HEWERS OF WOOD AND DRAW
ERS OF_WATER",
The contention over the reappointment of the keeper of the children's elephant, "Minnie", in the charge of the city, and that now on as a result of the unwarranted and wholesale destruction of the trees in the public parks, have opened the eyes of thousands of residents of this city, besides us, to certain things The Gazette said and reiterated prior to Mayor Baehr-Maschke's nomination and election last fall. Thus early has our statements been made clear, verified as it were, and therefore we are now justified in saying, we told you so. Our people know, whether they will admit it or not, that we have so very many times told them in advance TRUTHS about persons and things that some of them would not accept before, only to apologize upon when it was time to find out that once again the Gazette had warned us of time but in vain, to their sincere regret. In January the Mayor announced the appointment of Dan, Fairfax, Jr., to the appointment in the water-works' department, the only Afro-American up to date to be "appointed" by the city administration to a clerkship. Did he and Maschke let Dan. have the job? NO INDEEDI Did they appoint any other Afro-American to it or any clerkship? NO INDEEDI Are all such positions filled? The Mayor says so. What positions have been given to our voters? A few janitorials, two meter readers, a few inspectors of gates and closets, etc., and many other clerks, a higher appointed personnel and Maschke would make the Negro, "a hewer of wood and a drawer of water." Is this what our parents are sending their boys and girls to High School and Colleges for? Is that what Mr. and Mrs. John Fairfax sent Dan. through Western University to do—work in the city yard on the Lake front, doing work beneath, a clerkship grade that does not require a. Collegiate education? Dan. has held clerical positions in the local and St. Louis Post Office. we do not believe many of Baehr's clerks conspire with us. Do you like being undermined to the plane of care of wood and drawers of water", and your educated children; too and by such men. Think it over and YOU will not have to recall the "Minnie" incident or the park trees' destruction to reach a conclusion.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON
"My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had a physician treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come out on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad that I had to tie his hands in clothes at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a more skeleton, and was hardly able to walk.
"My nunt advised me to try Cuteura Soap and Cuteura Ointment. I sent to a drug store and got a cake of Cuteura Soap and a box of the Ointment and followed directions. At the end of two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since. I can since say that only for Cuteura my child would have died. I used only one cake of Cuteura Soap and about three boxes of Ointment.

The editor of The Gazette is greatly indebted to B. F.

"Jack" Johnson, despite his rugged training, is still wearing his famous "golden" smile and is optimistic as to the result of his coming engagement with James J. Jeffries. In a recent conversation with John J. Johnson, he told him of his friend, who claimed that his friends are a region especially among his own race. "I will see a good representation of my followers at the ringside," says Jack. "Ninety per cent' of them will be from Ohio," he said in conclusion as he donned the mitts for a workout.

In an after talk Sunday evening by H. C. Bailey of Antioch church denounced in scathing terms the malicious attack upon our waiters, barbers, footmen and chauffeurs, made in that fool article published last week Monday's Cleveland Leader by a detainee 'test indictment members of the local police department who were evidently seeking a little cheap newspaper notoriously in the daily papers.' Many Afro-Americans are in danger of losing their simations as a result of that miserable publication, Running into the "white" press with such rot is never helpful, but is invariably very harmful to those least able to stand it, and is always not only a source of anger and a source of a foolish lack of judgment and good common sense. What in the world is the matter with the local jimrow Negroes? Do they wish to ruin Cleveland for our people?

The Gazette Was Right in its Contention, as usual—Our Refusal to Support Hirstius and Others Fully Justified—Some Interesting Letters.
As is well-known The Gazette was bitterly opposed to the election of Sheriff Gus Hirstius, because when a member of the council (from the pennit a street to be cut through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between Perry street and Greenwood street, because a few prejudiced Cedar avenue residents asked him not to do so "because colored people would come through" the street from Perry avenue and "peer into their windows" which would incendance which he introduced in the council (authorizing the proper city authorities to cut the street through) at the request of the above mentioned preju
diced Cedar avenue residents. When he was reelected to the council, Hisius, a second time, promised to have the street cut through, but steadily refused to keep his promise. The following is pertinent and self-explaining. Read the letters carefully and thoughtfully:
Cleveland, Nov. 19, 1959
Mr. Peter Witt, City Clerk Bear
Sir. Just (before election, Councilman
Hirstin made a statement in a political
meeting to the effect that he had
passed an ordinance, resolution or
something in the city council, providing
for cutting a street through from
the city to the town of Brownsville
between East Twenty-second and East
Twenty-eighth street, opposite Skeid
street, or in that vicinity, which he
claimed, though passed by the council
in July last the work of cutting the
street through) has been held up ever
since by Director Springhorn, or some
one else connected with the city government.
How much, if any, truth is there in
his claim?
Last year or the year before the same individual introduced an ordinance, resolution or something in the council, providing for cutting a greet through in the same vicinity. Will you tell me whether or not the resolution, ordinance or whatever it was, referred to, was passed by the council, passed by the gov't, passed out through at that time? By complying with the above requests at your earliest opportunity you will greatly oblige me. Yours truly.
Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor, Gazette. —Dear Sir; On July 9, 1966, resolution No. 5268 by Mr. Hirstus provided for the opening of East Twenty-fifth place to Cedar avenue. It passed the same month on the 24th day. The improvement was not made for the real reason that his答复 did not His reasons for not wanting it, I have been informed, were and possibly are that the people in the immediate vicinity of the proposed opening did not want people of your race to come through. A day of the present year there was a resolution introduced, and passed in June, looking for the making of a new street between Central and Cedar avenues about opposite Sked street. This improvement was never made for the reason that the money in possession of the city was not enough for the opening of dead end streets and not the making of new streets.
It is the custom of the administration to defer to the wishes of councilmen for ward improvements, and I am not sure how much improvement at East Twenty-fifth place was not made was because of race prejudice which Mr. Hirstius listened to. Would suggest that you call up Mr. Springhain and get from him a confirmation of what I have given to you as a rumor. Very truly yours.
Nov. 25. 1908.
Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette—Dear Sir, Answering your reference to the 42th host, with reference to the enclosed letter from Mr. Witt, will say that the facts are as Mr. Witt states, and had Mr. Hirstius desired to have East Twenty-fifth place opened through to Cedar avenue, it would have been done long ago. At the opening Mr. Hirstius invited me to meet with him a committee at the close of one of the council meetings. The committee represented the property owners and residents on Cedar avenue, where the improvement was intended to be made. They protested against its opening, and the result was that the property owners did not have it made, and ASKED ME TO HAVE NO FURTHER STEPS TAKEN IN THE MATTER. It was not until recently that the case which we had started in court to condemn the property was dismissed. We have always made it a rule to act in accordance with the wishes of the councilman representing the property owners. This kind are to be made. It therefore seems that MR. HIRSTIUS ALONE IS TO BLAKE FOR NOT HAVING THE STREET OPENED. Yours truly.

The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and lauded by persons whose own hair we have adequately grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when to tell their goods (saying that "theirs is the same" or "just as good" or referred to "PORO"). We advise you to use only "PORO" Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind). See that the name "PORO" is on every box, not "gadget without it". Prepared only by MRS. A. M. POPE.
