MONEY SAVED BY PATRONIZING MERCHANTS WHO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER. THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY National News. Interesting News Matter Concerning the Negro, Told in Paragraphs by Our Special Correspondent at Washington, D. C. VOL. XIII. National Interesting News Matter Concerning by Our Special Correspondent Special to Colorado Statesman: In accordance with the provisions of the Act of Congress, approved Feb. 9, 1907, to define the term "registered nurse" and to provide for the registration and government of trained nurses in the District of Columbia, the Commissioners have appointed Mrs. Sarah I. Fleetwood graduate of Freedman hospital, one of the five nurses to serve on the examining board. Mrs. Fleetwood is the wife of that gallant veteran of the Civil War, Maj. Christian A. Fleetwood. The other members, so honored are white. Racial prejudices are so flagrant and oftimes shown in so vulgar and offensive a manner, that the self respecting citizen rather prefers to ignore them than humiliate himself by their notice. When however they are so absurdly presumptuous as to take the form of petition, flaunted in the face of the head of a department of the Government, it is incumbent upon every one to sit up and take notice. Such action has recently been taken by the white employes in the office of the Superving Architect of the Treasury, asking that a colored clerk or rather daughtsman, who had met successfully the tests of civil service and was appointed to this office at $1800 per year, be ousted. In evidence of the great indignation which is felt by the Architects office, several of the employees have already resigned. It will be remembered, that Mr. Cortelyon, not so long ago, when Postmaster General, refused to grant the request of a large number of white Railway Mail clerks, that the white and colored clerks be segregated. He has thus far ignored this petition and it is not probable that any notice whatever will be given the matter by the Department. The Hon. R. T. Greener, late U. S. Consul at Vladivostock, Russia, delivered a most interesting and instructive lecture at the Berean Baptist church a few nights ago on the Russo-Japanese war. The lecturer pointed out in most effective manner the elements of contrast in the character and history of the two contending peoples and suggested the thought that the outcome so surprising to the average mind was but indeed a natural one. The fine diplomacy of the Japanese against the sparring-for-time State Historical and N H Society, Denver, Colo SAVED BY PATH COLORA News. ing the Negro, Told in Paragraphs ent at Washington, D. C. tactics of the Russians, during both sides were hastening preparations for the conflict which was recognized as inevitable, was forcibly described. The character elements of the two people, which were the real influence on either side for victory or defeat, were carefully scrutinized. The Russian lack of national pride—the popular discontent with existing conditions—the army—lukewarm in its loyalty and ineffective as a fighting force, with a population of 150,000,000 to draw upon were pictured on the one side. Against such odds came the little brown men of Nippon, whose entire population is but 50,000,000, but its fighting force thoroughly organized and ready. Its people homogeneous and loyal from the Mikado to the humblest coolie and anxious to sacrifice their all for home and country. Behind them, too, were a thousand years religion, racial integrity, reverence of blood and the highest moral culture. Picking up but a short while back the manners and customs, methods of warfare as well as of peaceful pursuit, the mind can scarcely realize the evolution that has been accomplished. Facts, however are stern things and the world knows to-day that the baby foot of Japan rests victoriously on the prostrate form of the great bear of Russia. The thought was suggested by the lecturer that what Japan has accomplished may be only an initiative of the larger and more wide-spread aggressiveness of the brown peoples of the orient. India and China with their hundreds of millions, the former ruled, albeit with some form of justice but thoroughly dominated by a handful of Englishmen and the latter in very great measure controlled by the same influence, may not always be content to walk in leading strings but may rise in the strength and majesty of numbers and inexhaustible resources and assume a more exhalted station in the forward march of the nations. The thought, then may be reasonably indulged, "what of the Negro." He is one of the brown races, when will he awake? Is he making preparation? Will he be ready when destiny proclaims the hour? Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, member of the Board of Education --- for the District and otherwise actively prominent in all matters affecting the public welfare, was the speaker before the Bethel Literary and Historical Association at its last meeting. Mrs. Mussey, it will be remembered cast the one conspicuous negative vote against the dismissal of Prof. Cardozo by the Board, at the end of a trial in which it is held, no part of the charges was proved. The fact that Mrs. Mussey stood up squarely for fair play is gratefully appreciated by colored citizens, while a failure to do so by their own representatives on the Board is equally condemned. In this connection rumor has it that at the conclusion of the trial, Mrs. Mussey was very generally congratulated by colored spectators and among others Mrs. Arthur Gray cordially took her by the hand and assured her of the grateful appreciation with which colored citizens generally would view her action. At this juncture, it is said that Mrs. Terrell, the colored lady member of the board, hearing this, interposed with the remark to Mrs. Mussey, 'that this feeling would probably last one month' to this Mrs. Gray is said to have retorted with much spirit "It wont last that long for you, for you're a traitor to your race." Mrs. Mussey was greeted by an audience which almost completely filled the auditorium of the great Metropolitan church, while students from the Manual Training and High schools under Prof. J. T. Layton, Director of Music, by their singing, added greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. Mrs. Musseys' address was of the homely, unprepared but sincere and heartfelt variety, which immediately touch a chord in the affections of the audience, through responsive feeling of honest purpose and kindly sympathy. "The Home Life" was the theme through which much practical suggestion was made for a more loyal and earnest devotion to the home, each one of which may be considered a recruiting station, from which must come the future citizens of the Republic. Mrs. Mussey also made an appeal for the aid of the large audience in behalf of the Manassas Industrial school for colored boys and girls. This is a philanthopic work in which her late husband, Gen'l Mussey was deeply interested. The school is situated near the battlefield of Bull Run and was established a few years ago by Jennie Dean, a former slave woman. It is doing an inestimable work for the uplifting of the Negro boys and girls of that section. Mrs. Mussey was presented with a bouquet of choice flowers on behalf of a committee of ladies, through Mrs. Arthur Gray, who DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 1907. spoke in felicitous terms of the speaker and the noble words of sympathy and encouragement the audience had listened to. JOHN H. PAYNTER. PHOENIX NEWS. Bishop A. Grant of the African M. E church arrived in Phoenix March 16th and was the guest of Rev. James Washington and Mr. and Mrs. P. Payne. Being the Bishop's first visit to Phoenix, Arizona, he was favorably impressed both with the people and their surroundings. Mrs. Jennie Ervin one of the Stewardess, served an elaborate dinner in honor of the Bishop Saturday at 4 p. m. Rev. Washington put every effort forward and there was nothing withheld to prevent a decided success for the reception and entertainment of the honored guest. The only thing that was hard to decide—How can we show our hospitality in three small days when we had planned to entertain the Bishop three weeks. The 11 o'clock service Sunday morning conducted by Bishop Grant at Tanner's chapel was a very impressive and soul stiring one. The public reception in the Hardwick theatre at 3 o'clock was well attended. Welcome addresses were made by Rev. McKinney and Wm. Crump. Bishop Grant was then introduced and his remarks were mainly on the progress made by the Negro since the Civil War. The Bishop preached an able sermon Sunday night to an appreciative audience of both white and colored. Monday at noon Mrs. Payne entertained at dinner, Bishop Grant, Rev. Washington and wife. Also monday from 3 to 5, a reception in honor of the Bishop was given by the Auxilaries of the church and the social club. It was a seccess and everyone left feeling well repaid for a few hours spent in a social manner. Monday night at the Hardwick theatre, Bishop Grant lectured on "The Three Things that make up a Man's Life." It was a treat. Both wit and eloquence were so combined to make the thoughts so clear a child might grasp his meaning. The Bishop left Tuesmorning for Colorado. The Two. ender is he who taught me first The steps that led to the pit of flame, derry, the jent! Be his soul accurat! Lives his in honor and I in shame? and yonder, dreaming his one sad dream. Is he whom, in his robes of woe, ipide he the word, over death's dark stream Willingly, gladly would I go. Lovers I count on my finger-tips; Lives, like dice, for my smiles are thrown; till forever upon my lips Burns the kiss I have never known! -William Young. New Thought The Practical Value of New Thought and How We May Accept or Reject the Events of Life, Etc. In these articles we have proceeded along logical and natural lines, first saying to our readers what New Thought is and is not. An intelligent knowledge of a subject is the first requisite of its attainment. Second, we gave the various schools of New Thought, concluding with the fact that while certain schools and teachers emphasize first one phaze and then another in the body of New Thought truth, yet all schools have this one characteristic in common; they begin at the same source and end at the same conclusion, i.e. "The Great Spirit is the All and we are a part of the whole." This is the premise from which no New Thought student will depart. It is the unite of his thinking and is the governing principle of his action. Such a basis is broad enough for all people of sound thinking and activity and high enough and deep enough for all meditation and effort, both for time and eternity. Our third discussion dealt with the avenues of approach to New Thought experience or consciousness. Here many ways were disclosed by which different persons with different attitudes of mind might approached and experience the fullness and power of New Thought truth. Fourth, we spoke at some length of the potentiality of New Thought, its power and its value to the individual and to society, for if there be no value and service to New Thought truths then they are not worth the study; but we aimed to show that their power was unlimited, their service infinite and its joy the greatest blessing that could come to man or society: We desire to discuss to-day, the practical value of New Thought. How may we accept or reject the events of life, or what power shall they exert over us. There are several attitudes we may take towards the inbarmonious circumstances of daily life, first, we may refuse or object to them, that is worry and fret about them, dislike and try to eject them from over environment, or second, we may take the attitude of the fatalist, "what is to be, will be," this is resignation, we assume the passive and submissive spirit, which usually means a negative condition, letting things bear upon us in a strickly stoical fashion, or we may assume a positive and combatative attitude and attempt to overcome our environment by pure will power, and immediately a strenos and NO. 28. defiant attitude of life begins and keeps up until the struggling is exhausted. This is like a rat in a trap who realizes that its supreme effort will at last be a failure against the tremendous odds against which it contends. Again one may take an optimistic mood and conceive of evil as unreal and express being as hypothetical, that only good is real and non-good is unreal, either or all of these attitudes or moods are used by thinkers and people who must bear responsibilities and care, but a new and better way is open to solved our problem. It is the way of law and truth. To know the law of life and the way of truth is to put ourselves in such relations to these laws that the laws themselves at once shields us and at the same time afford us power and strength. In this attitude we are taught to accept whatever that comes to us as having a clear meaning for us, a lesson to teach a truth to unfold, a power to give, and as being an opportunity for our advancement. With such a valuable benefit to be obtained we are determined at once to welcome whatever comes, knowing that it is a means of self improvement and strength and that its purpose is to be a means of developing a stronger character and unfolding a new power. This then is a great advance over other attitudes but the way of progress is improving at each advance step we take. Our idea should be the highest. If we wish to attain the heights of peace which is the "Place of Power." The greatest influence for the largest good we must do more than simply accept and try to use our environment to the best advantage, we must come to fully understand the principles of life and by co-operation with them to transmit our circumstances and conditions into the highest expressions of humanity. This is the summum bonum of thinking and acting. By co-operation is meant the method or law of our mental thought which determines our feelings and actions and brings them to coincide with our thoughts, this alone will bring us to that peace and place which is the lawful heritage of every soul. These principles of life, of which we speak, are unity, abundance and goodness, based upon the fact that God is omnipresent. When our life accords with those at all Continued to fourth page. ee ee a eC Oe ei, ae a re osee.

Denver, Cole ARIZONA DISPATCH SAYS ISSUE WILL BE FORCED. NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA Predicted That the Two Congressmen Will be Elected at Large Re- Gendinss’ Gt Location, Inasmuch as the people in general in New Mexico. are deeply interested in the prospective statehood, the follow- ing dispatch from Phoenix, Arizona, which appeared in the El Paso Herald, will be read with interest, although it may possibly be colored by prejudice or preference in some respect. The dispatch says: “Will General Thomas Wilson suc- ceed Governor Kibbey, will it be Col- onel Sturges, or will it be either of them? Politicians in all parts of Arl- zona, who want to be close to the throne, no matter who sits in the chair, are trying to solve these puz ales, “Sturges has the backing of a large Arizona following, but William Loeb, private secretary to President Roose: yelt, is said to have decided that Stur- ges Will not do, and that “Sitting Bull” Wilson must have the place, “Three dates are fixed for the time Governor Kibbey’s resignation will go into effect. One of them is the im- mediate future, another is next De- cember when Congress meets again, and the other is when Governor Kib- bey gets good and ready. “Joint statehood leaders claim that not only Governor Kibbey is to be suc- ceeded, but that Governor Hagerman of New Mexico will go. Jointists look upon General Wilson as Kibbey’s suc: cessor, further believing that an Ohio man will take Hagerman’s seat. “Pwo wings of the Republican party in Arizona, each of which is separated from the other by the impassable gult of joint statehood, are both figuring Governor Kibbey back to private life and the practice of the law. “Jointists say Wilson will get the plum, and the ant{jointists that Stur- ges is the man for the place, Both claim to have réceived assurances dl- rect from Washington, D. C., to the effect that just what will be done has been settled. “Jointists are admitting that the change in governors is a part of a well directed plan to join Arizona and New Mexico as one state In spite of the fact that the combined vote of the two ter- ritories last November was against the proposition by a strong majority. “With Wilson in the saddle in Art- zona and an Ohio man in charge in New Mexico the wishes of the people in the matter of joint statehood would be disregarded, they say. The first step will be to oust all territorial offi- cials who are against fointure and build up a machine of jointists. “The new governors will get to- ‘gether and appoint delegates to a con- stitutional convention, ‘The majority of them are to be jointists, with just enough opposite view to prevent the affair being a farce, They will pre- pare a joint state constitution for the two territories and present this to Congress when it meets next Decem- ber. “Senator Beveridge of Indiana, will take charge of the measure in the Sen- ate and Speaker Cannon in the House. Jointists claim that Senator Foraker’s opposition will be small compared to his past efforts, through which Arizona. escaped being at the present time a part of New Mexico, “In the new joint statehood bill the Joint state is to receive a gift of $10, 000,000, twice as much as was previ- ously promised. Of this large amount 35,000,000 is to go to the schools as originally intended, and a like amount to the payment of county and terri torial debts, Instead of making two congressional districts of the new state, which would mean a member in the House of Repre- sentatives for Arizona and another from New Mexico, insuring that at least one of them would be Democratic, the two representatives are to be elected at large, making both Republi- can and probably both from New Mex- ico.” Of Interest to Coloradans. An articie of more than passing in- terest to all Coloradans has recently been published regarding the struggles of our very earliest pioneers to obtain the recognition of this western coun- try as a territory by the federal gov- ernment. Former Professor of History in the University of Colorado Frederic L Paxson, has united under the caption of “The ‘territory of Colorado” in the last issue of the University Studies all the steps and deliberations which were taken by the first prospectors in and around Denver to win a grant of protection and organization from Con- gress. ‘The settlers had no laws and no representation in the National Counell «und their needs were urgent and many. But all their efforts for a while ayailed nothing. With the ar- rival of the first newspaper their de- mands became more insistent and urg- ent, and finally on February 28, 1861, the territory of Colorado became a le- gal fact. It was not, however, without hardship and travail that the territory was established, and many incidents, such as a heavy fall of snow, which forced the miners to stop work and in idleness discuss polities, operated to- ward the erection of the government of our state. ‘The article is well writ ten, concise and interesting. Every one of the other contributions to this number of the University Stud- les concerns the state in some way. Dr, John B. Phillips, professor of so- clology and economics, writes upon “The Significance of thé Banking Situ- ation in Colorado,” and in the course of the treatise tells of the rise of the banking Jaws of the state, their rela- tion to the population, and of remedies which should be adopted according to the experiences of other common: wealths. ‘This question is of current interest and the article was first deliy- ered in a talk before the State Com- mercial Association, and was consid- ered so valuable that it has been put in permanent form, 3 ‘Store Gloces at 5:30 P.

TO BUILD NEW ROADS FOR COLORADO WILL BENEFIT SHIPPERS. REDUCE HAUL TO THE COAST Agreement Between Union Pacific and Colorado & Southern Likely to be Made for Joint Use of Track. Omaha, Neb.—The Union Pacific is outfitting here a large party of engineers, who will leave in a few days for Weld and Larimer counties, Colorado, where they will survey for a cutoff from Greeley to Hermosa, Wyoming, connecting the Denver-Cheyenne line with the main line at Hermosa. The cut-off survey will run via Fort Collins. It is understood that negotiations are in progress between the Union Pacific and the Colorado & Southern for a traffic agreement whereby the Colorado & Southern will be given use of the Union Pacific track between Cheyenne and Denver, in return for use of the Colorado & Southern track between Greeley and Fort Collins. If this arrangement can be made the Union Pacific plans to build a line from Fort Collins to Hermosa. This would give the road a cut-off greatly reducing the haul from Denver to Pacific coast points. If the traffic agreement with the Colorado & Southern cannot be perfected, the Union Pacific will build from Fort Collins to Greeley, thereby securing its own track throughout. The proposal is to the advantage of the Colorado & Southern in that it would give the road a straight haul from Wyoming points to its Colorado lines. The Colorado & Southern owns the Cheyenne & Northern, a detached line connecting Choyenne and Orin Junction. At present the Colorado & Southern turns the through business of this line over to the Union Pacific at Cheyenne, and it is hauled by the Union Pacific to Denver, where the Colorado & Southern again receives it. The determination to use the Greeley-Hermosa route was responsible for the recent action of the Union Pacific in calling off the laborers on the Carr-Borie cut-off, which would have connected the Denver-Cheyenne line at Carr with the main line at Borie. HARRY K. THAW IS SANE. Murderer of Stanford White Proves Himself Competent. New York.—Harry K. Thaw to-day was declared sane by the unanimous report of the commission in lunacy. The moment the decision was aanded down from Justice Fitzgerald's desk District Attorney Jerome was on his feet vigorously protesting against its confirmation by the court. He declared he had been excluded from the last session of the commission, and demanded to be allowed to have access to the minutes and stenographic notes of what transpired at the final mental and physical examination of the defendant. When Judge Fitzgerald declined to turn the minutes over to the district attorney Jerome declared he would carry the case to the appellate division of the Supreme Court, asking that a writ of prohibition or mandamus be granted to prevent a continuance of the Thaw trial until the higher court had ruled upon the legality of the commission's course. Judge Fitzgerald reminded Mr. Jerome that he had waived the statutory right of attending the last session of the commission by suggesting himself that all the attorneys be excluded from the sitting in question. He then granted the district attorney an adjournment until Monday morning in order that he might have time to prepare his application to the appellate division. Jerome protested that the time was not sufficient, but Justice Fitzgerald cut him short with the announcement that the trial must be concluded forthwith. Unless Jerome should secure a writ of prohibition in the meantime, Justice Fitzgerald is expected to announce on Monday morning that he has confirmed the report of the commission and order that the trial proceed without further delay. Thaw was not in court to hear the decision. The jury was also excluded, and both prisoner and jurors were out of range of the district attorney's heated discussion with Justice Fitzgerald. All the members of the Thaw family, including the mother and wife of the defendant, were present, however, and their keen delight over the announcement of the favorable report was turned into alarm at the unexpected attitude of the district attorney, whose threat to take the matter before the appellate division of the court seemed to involve another serious delay in the long-drawn out trial. Diamonds for Doggie. Mrs. James Henry Smith, who, with Mrs. Hetty Green and Mrs. Russell Sage, ranks as one of the three richest widows in the world, has perhaps the finest collection of diamonds of any woman in the world. When she returns to America she will have to pay $300,000 duty if she brings all her jewels with her. In the collection is a dog collar several strands deep from which depends a drapery of strings of diamonds. More than a dozen of these strands fall loosely over the shoulders to the edge of the corsage. In this combination of dog collar and necklace are 2,000 diamonds of one carat each, their total value being $250,000. One of the arm ornaments is a diamond serpent, colling seven times around the arm from the shoulder to below the elbow. The eyes of the serpent are pigeon-blood rubies. The value of the stones is $250,000. There are in New York only two women whose jewels exceed in value those of Mrs. Smith. They are Mrs. Astor and Mrs. Frederic Pearson. The latter's collection of perfect pearls has been appraised at $1,500,000. Men familiar with the affairs of James Henry Smith estimated his fortune yesterday at from $75,000,000 to $80,000,000. TO REMOVE IRON MOLD. Lemon Juice and Salt Can Be Trusted to Eradicate It. This stain is usually caused by material coming into contact with rust, or by ink. To remove it sprinkle the stain with lemon juice and salt, and expose to the air and sun. Repeat this until the stain has gone. If the above remedy falls, dip the stain into boiling water, and rub it with salts of lemon, using a rag for the purpose. Then hold the stain over a cup or basin, and pour a stream of boiling water through. The article should be well rinsed and washed to remove all traces of the salts, which would otherwise burn the material. This last remedy must not be tried with color, as salts of lemon destroys color. If colored material is stained with iron mold, the only remedy is lemon juice, and this must be used cautiously, as it testroys some colors. Vegetable Soup. Have ready one pint each white turnips and potatoes, cut in cubes, one-half pint each leeks and carrots sliced, one pint tomatoes, one large onion sliced, one clove of garlic, two sprigs parsley, two stalks celery, one tablespoonful salt, one teaspoonful sugar, three tablespoonfuls good drippings or butter, and pepper to season. Out the onions fine and cook in the drippings until faintly colored, then put into the soup pot with two quarts of water and the carrots and cook for half an hour. Add potatoes, celery, turnips, seasoning and tomatoes and cook an hour. Ten minutes before serving add the minced parsley and serve with croutons. Titanla's Toast. Cut some bread into very thin slices and remove all the crusts; then butter the pieces lightly, and between every two slices lay an extremely thin shaving of the breast of a chicken. Press the slices of bread firmly together, put them in the oven and toast them until they are a delicate brown. They should then be served at once while they are very hot. WILL MAKE BETTER STOCK. Western Breeders Realize the Importance of Pure Blood in Their Herds. One of the indications of the changing conditions in western stock breeding is the increasing demand for pure breed cattle, which are needed to feed a large range cattle, all horns and legs, are rapidly disappearing and their places are being taken by the improved beef breeds.

This sale is attracting considerable attention from stockman and farmer, because the purpose of what is taking prices in the improvement of western live stock. Fewer cattle and better quality seems to be the secret of success in the West. Formerly the cattle market is kind of cattle and as many as possible.

The purpose of striving to produce the best and it is promised that the coming sale will provide breeders with some of the best blood obtainable in the different breeds.

We have always contended that the race question has not received the mental strength, calm analysis and cold, logical, serious thought of the American people and especially the South. That only surface analysis, passion, inferiority and prejudicial views were taken. But now all of this seems to be changing. Since the Atlanta riots have shown what a dangerous condition exists and how at any time it may be destructive of peace, life, property and business. Atlanta is the most aggressive commercial metropolis of the South. It is the New York Wall street of the Mason and Dixon section, and the recent riot has diverted capital from the South. In order to keep open the channels of capital to develop that section, peace, order, harmony and safety must be assured. This has started the best whites to thinking, planning and organizing and this is the result up to date. "Two great movements looking toward the solution of the race problem have been launched and have gained the support of some of the most prominent men in the South," according to a statement made at the Evangelical Ministers' Association at Atlanta last Monday. One movement is being urged by Dr. John E. White, who reported that five of the wealthiest men in the South have put all they have at the back of the movement, which contemplates all the association of all of the moral forces of the South in one great body to handle the problem and deal with the situation. The other movement is being fostered by ex-Governor Northern of Macon, Georgia, who has been urging by speeches all over the state the better relation of both classes, thus attempting to undo the havoc that Hoke Smith and John Temple Graves accomplished in fretting and separating the clans. Here are the beginning of the first real constructive measures of handling the problem dispassionately. Here are being laid the basis and foundation of a true understanding and until this is reached and thrashed out there can be no real, logical premise upon which to get at the facts. We welcome this beginning and each colored citizen should do his best to help the movement along.

In our talks upon this important subject we have sought to impress upon our readers both in business and the laity the necessity first in accumulating the festive dollar, second in wisely investing it, and, thirdly in having that dollar come back to you with some increase. If our people would only stop to study the circuit of a dollar they would get a fine object lesson that would be a benefit. For instance the fine art of financiering is to keep the dollar moving, but moving in a circle around among ourselves. In this way the dollar does not make wealth for one only, but for all. Buy only of the man that will in turn buy of you and your dollar comes back to you again. This is the secret of shrewd business acumen. The Negro needs a few lessons in the school of coin. The Colorado Statesman wants to give this instruction. Read these articles every week, you will find them intensely interesting if your eyes are open to the situation. The note of warning to the Negro is being sounded, the light is visible in the sky, but we fear that the very people who need our advice, whose very safety and progress is being endangered are totally oblivious to our warning and heed not our alarm or signal of disaster. It is for this reason we are asking the thoughtful people who are reading this page to put out our lessons to others. If it helps you it will help others and if we can get a hundred live people to thinking and talking they will tell others.

One of the evils under the sun and one that ought to be corrected, is the custom to save and treasure up all the good things to be said of one another, until their departure or death. This evil is pregnant in the home, society and even in the churches. In the stress and strife of life when a kind word, a gentle comment or good deed would nerve the heart and strengthen the arm of the toiler and cause him or her to take courage, live longer and do a greater work, it is invariably withheld. Instead it is seldom that a beneficial worker has a word of praise or encouragement given but often, very often he is roundly accused of criminal negligence and even abused. But when the time of separation comes or the death angel swoops down and bears the sufferer from the field of toil, then what fevers of appreciation, what resolutions of faithfulness and praise, what copious tears of sympathy, what dexteriousness to show honors are enacted. Post mortem praise is all very well in its place and should not altogether be discouraged, but somehow we favor the giving out of kind words and beautiful flowers and generous sentiments when they can be appreciated and deserved by the deserving toiler, when they can cheer and comfort a despondent soul, when they can raise a bowed head. Such encouragements bless both the receiver and the giver, thus both are made happier and better. One bud at this time is worth a forest of flowers at departure or after death, one live word of good cheer, a volume of resolutions.

Instead of March going out like a lion, it went out like a lamb. With the sun shining gloriously and filling not only nature but human nature with its brightest rays all Denver went forth to give forth joy and songs and praise. There was not even a cloud to mar the beautiful serenity of the azure skies and all Nature seemed in perfect harmony with the birds and flowers that lifted their heads in songs and praise. From early dawn the church bells began to peal forth their call to worship and at their melodious signal the vanguard of worshipers were on their way to the churches. Nearly every house of worship was filled to overflowing. Pretty women gowned in new spring ralment, children reflecting parental care and love and decked in Easter frocks, and men looking immaculate from head to toe, filled the churches with faces raidant with the reflected sunshine. The churches were beautifully decorated with flowers, palms and birds, the music was inspiring and the adoration and praise to the Lord and Savior who is risen was upon every lip and in every heart.

HE public roads of the United States, taken in the aggregate, represent an internal improvement of vital interest to every citizen and of a magnitude which almost staggers the imagination. The office of public roads has nearly completed an investigation which develops the fact that we have approximately 2,500,000 miles of public roads in the United States. The annual expenditure on these roads is only about $75,000,000 at the present time, but when you consider that four per cent. is a good return for a large investment, the amount that is annually spent on our roads would represent the interest on a valuation of $1,875,000,000. the fact that less than five improved by a surfacing of American people is such individual citizen, the local It is only by the united the requirements of the rapidly growing to be an of our roads has had its road made no effort toward us of money. The federalion and educational work of being the first of what states have now adopted ever by providing state ap-irs in a number of specific time and experience and tion in the various states led in partially mitigatingods of road construction; judgment in the selection placing proper informa; but we con never hopeful extravagance, unsuit-ry state is organized, and all our endeavors. Our investigation has further developed the fact that less than five per cent. of these 2,500,000 miles of road are improved by a surfacing of hard material, so that the task that is before the American people is such as to give ample room for the efforts of the individual citizen, the local official, the state, and the national government. It is only by the united effort of all that a progress commensurate with the requirements of the country can be made. The American Roadmakers' association is rapidly growing to be an organization which will do much for the states. The present movement for the betterment of our roads has had its beginning only about 15 years ago. The states had made no effort toward directing the work or aiding it by appropriations of money. The federal government had not yet taken up the investigation and educational work which it is now conducting. New Jersey has the distinguished honor of being the first of what are known as the "state aid states." Twenty states have now adopted the same principle to some extent at least, either by providing state appropriation or state supervision, or both. We have urged the passage of state aid laws in a number of specific instances, and have given fully and freely of our time and experience and acquired information in the effort to aid legislation in the various states to frame suitable road laws. We hope to succeed in partially mitigating the deplorable conditions due to incorrect methods of road construction; to induce some of the road builders to exercise judgment in the selection of the road materials; to enable legislators, by placing proper information before them, to improve existing legislation; but we con never hope to entirely drive out incorrect methods, wasteful extravagance, unsuitable laws, and inadequate organization until every state is organized, and the spirit of cooperation is the main factor in all our endeavors. A Straight Tip To the Boys By RANDOLPH GUGGENHEIMER. I tell you, boys, if you could only look back on the past as I do you would see that life holds no actual hardships for any one, that there is only one road to travel to insure success, and that everybody holds his future in his own hands to do with as he will, to make himself just what he chooses to be. The lad who hustles around all day is the lad who enjoys life to the fullest. He becomes a good physical as well as an alert-thinking animal. The young man endowed with nothing but money soon becomes the enervated man of middle age, for whom life has entirely lost its charms. The lad who hustles around all day is the lad who enjoys life to the fullest. He becomes a good physical as well as an alert-thinking animal. The young man endowed with nothing but money soon becomes the enervated man of middle age, for whom life has entirely lost its charms. The lad who chases around all day need never worry about his appetite—except that it may grow too healthy for his pocket. He has only to guard his habits, and his appetite will take care of itself. A boy who attends to business, eats and sleeps regularly and has all the healthy fun he can crowd into his leisure hours will outstrip and outlast any boy who wastes his energies in vicious living or in idleness. The boy who works hard and plays hard and who sees fun in everything is the boy who wins when the show-down comes. The boy who contracts the smoking habit and feels "chesty" because he's got an ill-smelling cigar or a poisonous cigarette between his teeth is the boy who's going to fail. Sober business men look for bright, clean, industrious boys to share their business burdens with them. They leave the cigarette smokers to shift for themselves. Occupy your spare time with reading, music, study or gymnasium. If you don't get enough physical exercise all day, build up your bodies at night in the "gym" so that you'll be able to bear any strain when you're older. I have often spoken to you boys about these matters, and I think my talks have done some good, for every once in awhile I run across a young man who tells me he remembered what I said when he was a newsboy, and judging from his appearance he profited by the advice. Save your pennies, and when you're older and wiser learn to invest your money in a A. H. Can you have a happy home with little money? This is a practical question to a great many people. I once asked an able lawyer his opinion as to the fundamental cause for so many divorces. He replied, money! Only think of it! righter-in-law of two other lives before she was 35. Do is get divorced very often? Why? "Well," he said, to fall in love with other the love stays put." And man's home is fascinated by The daughter of a millionaire and also the daughter-in-law of two other millionaires was married and divorced three times before she was 35. Do poor people or people in moderate circumstances get divorced very often? I asked my lawyer friend. Not very, he replied. Why? "Well," he said, "I guess they have so little time or opportunity to fall in love with other things, they just fall in love with each other and the love stays put." And it is seldom that the woman who breaks up a man's home is fascinated by a fellow on an ordinary salary. By LOGAN WALLER PAGE. Head of U. S. office of Public Ronds. T A Straight Tip To the Boys By RANDOLPH GUGGENHEIMER. business where it will bring you good returns. You've all got long lives before you and needn't be in any hurry to "get rich quick." Just save your money, put it into a savings bank and watch it grow. Watch your opportunity, and when you get a chance to go into more profitable business take it. But be sure you first like the business before you go into it, because if you don't you'll make a failure of it and may have to go back to selling papers when you would least care to.

Doctrinal Differences. The doctrinal differences between the Greek church, of which the Czar is the head, and the Church of Rome, of which it was a part until the council of Nice, in 787, are: The Holy Ghost proceeds from the Son as well as from the Father. This belief of the Eastern church, which had its metropolis at Constantinople, caused the split. The Greek church worships angels, the secular clergy are enjoined to marry once, and with a virgin; idols are used, the doctrine of purgatory is rejected, baptism is by immersion, followed by anointing with oil. Charity in Speech. If women would only bear in mind that they may need the world's good word themselves some day they would be more careful in what they say and how they say it. Charity is of thought as well as deed. It is not restricted to the feeding of the hungry and the clothing of the poor. It is as much needed among the rich as among any other class. A woman is a blessing to humanity who tempers justice with mercy, and who keeps her verdicts to herself when she sits in judgment on her friends. Fir Stump of Odd Design. Posing as an altar in the Grant's Pass (Or) lodgeroom is an odd-looking fir stump, its top shaped like a human head. Even the features grew there naturally and except for a little carving to improve one eye, no alteration was necessary after a woodman discovered the curio in the midst of the forest. A right ear is the only lacking feature. There is even a beard—represented by a white fungus growth. The First Glass Cups The first glass cups were made at Alexandria. Some were colored like Bohemia glass and decorated with glass pastes, imitating precious stones and cameos. Some were opaline, others clear as crystal and still others formed of opaque layers welded together like the famous Portland vase, in which the white upper layer had been cut away like that of a cameo, leaving a blue ground around the figures. There are only a few certainties in the world. One of them is the mother; you can always depend on her. After a man passes 70, living must be a good deal like waiting to go to a dentist to have a tooth pulled. --- times nothing but harmany, order and beauty can come into our environment. A lady asked why it was that when her attitude was so good, she still had so many irritating and distressing things to encounter. She spoke of her time of silence, how sure she was of God's presence, how strongly she realized the Great Spirit of Love, and yet, after one of these uplifted and uplifting times, she would go forth to a day filled with petty meannesses of others, a day that seemed to lack harmony in every respect. If she had taken the realization of her silence into her work, this spirit of love, God's presence with her, would have baptized and blessed everything with its own glory and her day would have been one of peace. It is the exercise of the consciousness of the principles of life, that keeps life pure and sweet and holy and servicable. Inward peace expresses itself in outward joy. If we enter upon our duties with a consciousness of this peace we will have the delight and freshness and hope fulness of a child and bring everybody around us into this same cheerful, vigorous mood. The practical value, the every day worth of New Thought cannot be valued in money terms, it is far above rubies and price. It is the place of peace and power, for all who work or think or serve mankind. It is harmony with life. Chance for Philanthropists.

But One-Fourth of the Bills Introduced Get Through to Governor. Denyer.—Bills introduced in the Sen. ate during the legislative session just closed were 418. Of this number 108 were passed and became laws. In the House 510 measures were in- troduced, but only 147 were enacted into laws, making a total of bills con- sidered by both bodies 928, and passed Senator Bardwell had to his credit thirty-seven bills introduced and Sen- ator Anfenger followed a close second with thirty-three.

Denyer—Bank clearings for the month of March show an increase of more than twenty per cent. compared to the clearings during the correspond- ing month last year. ‘The clearings for March, 1907, amounted to $33,723, 188, and’ during March, 1906, ‘they amounted to $28,019,115. The increase for March this year amounts to $5,704,- 073, and breaks all records for March business in the six national banks in Denver. A report of the condition of the na- tional banks, as they were on March 22r, has been made public and shows an increase of $370,202 in the aggre- gate deposits of the national banks since the report made on January 26th, ‘An idea of the upusual gain made in the clearings can be gleaned from the following comparison of the clearings for three years: 1907. 1908, 1905.

Colorado Springs.—For the crime of bigamy Mrs. Allie Briggs-Garvin must Serve from one year to fifteen months in the penitentiary. Sentence was im- posed by Judge W. S. Morris in the District Court. ‘The woman made a plea for clem- eney. Although the law held her gulity, she said, her own conscience told her she was innocent; that she had married Arthur Garvin believing Barney Briggs to be dead. Already Mrs. Garvin has spent several months in jail. The case had many sensational feat- ures. ‘The woman made an unsuccess- ful attempt to escape from custody by féigning illness. She was taken to St. Francis hospital, and, “blacking up” to impersonate a negress nurse maid, left the institution, carrying a dummy baby in her arms. She was arrested When about to board an outgoing train. Mrs. Garvin caused the arrest of her husband on several charges, and Viola Lacey, a pretty waitress who was em- ployed in a Manitou hotel last season, figured in the scandal the woman stirred up. Garvin is now free and is working in a local restaurant. ‘The two mothers-in-law of the woman ap- peared against her in court, and were the star w‘tnesses at the trial that re- sulted in her conviction for bigamy. | Says Murder Was Result of Brainstorm Washington.—Mrs. Annie M. Brad- ley, who shot to death former United States Senator Arthur Brown of Utah in a hotel in this city, December sth last, will plead mental irresponsibility as her defense to the indictment for murder. Her counsel has asked the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia for an order authorizing the summoning of thirteen witnesses from the West to be brought here at government ex- pense to testify in her behalf. Accom- panying this motion is an aifdavit in which Mrs. Bradley says she is unable to pay expenses of witnesses. It is declared that the defense ex- pects to prove by the witnesses that any act she committed that day “was the result of her diseased ‘condition of mind, for which she is not responst- ble.” ‘dnvor Cimnne Turned Down. Chicago.—Fred A, Busse defeated Edward F, Dunne for mayor at the polls Tuesday by a plurality exceeding 18,000 votes. He will take his seat a week from Monday. Within ten days thereafter there will not remain a Democratic employe of importance, un- protected by civil service laws, in all Chicago. It was a day of surprises. The en- tire Republican ticket is swept into of- fice as by a tidal wave, with the excep- tion of city treasurer. No one was more surprised than Mayor Dunne himself at the result, Up to the hour the polls closed he was cer- tain of victory.

On Wednes- day night, says the London Daily Mail, the wife of the bellringer went to St. Magnus cathedral to sound the curfew at eight o'clock, This is an ancient custom still observed in the burgh. ‘The bell had been tolled for less than a minute, when, it is alleged, a figure suddenly appeared at the woman's side, snatched her hands from the rope and as mysteriously disappeared. Another morning 20 trees which a few years ago were planted in front of the cathedral were found to have been cut down. The night was a calm one, with brilliant moonlight, and the trees were standing at one o'clock in the morning. | Hundreds of windows hayé an out- look on the spot, and many people who were still astir at three o'clock in the morning did not hear the slightest sound outside. Yet an hour later every tree had been destroyed. The police are baffled. FURIOUS HUMOR ON CHILD. Itching, Bleeding Sores Covered Body —Nothing Helped Her—Cuticura Cures Her in Five Days. “After my granddaughter of about seven years had been cured of the measles, she was attaeked about a fortnight later by a furious itching and painful eruption all over her body, especially the upper part of it, forming watery and bleeding sores, especially under the arms, of considerable size. She suffered a great deal and for three weeks we nursed her every night, using all the remedies we could think of. Nothing would help. We tried the Cuticura Remedies and after twenty- four hours we noted considerable im. provement, and after using only: one complete set of the Cuticura Remedies, in five consecutive days the little one, much to our joy, had been entirely cured, and has been well for a long time.

TONIC FOR MOTHERS Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills Are Safe and Reliable—A Favorite Household Motherhood may be the crowning blessing of a womans life or it may bring grief and sorrow. Mrs. M. J. Wight, of 170 Seventa Street, Auburn, Maine, relates her experience after the birth of her daughter in 1901, as fol- lows: “I was all run down at the time the baby came and did not im- prove in health rapidly after. I was pale, thin and bloodless. My stomach distressed me being full of gas all the time and my heart fluttered so taat 1 could scarcely breathe. “Finally I remembered that a friend had recommended Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills to me so I commenced using them. I gainef in strength rapidly while the baby throve also. When I expected my next child I started tak. ing the pills again as a tonic and strengthener and had no such diffi- culty as before. I got up better and ‘my strength came back much sooner. “A year ago last winter I fad an at- ‘tack of racumatism in the hands which went from one hand to the other. The joints swelled up and were so stiff I could not move them. ‘The pain ex- tended up through my arms and shoulders. I felt sick enough to go to bed but did not do so, This attack jasted for several months. I tried sev- eral remedies but finally came back to using tae pills which had done me so much good before and found that they benefited me almost at once. 1 havo not been troubled since.” ‘All druggists sell Dr, Williams’ Pink Pills, or they will be sent by mail post-paid, on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Willlams Medicine Compan: Schenectady, N.Y.

The Republican club of Colorado celebrated its first anniversary at the club rooms on West Colfax in Denver on March 28th. Congressman Robert W. Bonyge and State Treasurer Alfred E.

Reports made by the officers showed that the club is in a flourishing condition, that it now has 1,300 members, and that over $20,000 has been received in donations and dues. The preliminary hearing of Frank Butts, charged with the killing of J. M. Hedges, was held at Las Animas before Justice T. D. Britton. Butts was held without ball until the term of the District Court. It is probable that the defense will try to secure a continuance. In murder cases a continuance is almost always granted over one term, and Butts' condition is such that he will probably never be tried, for he will hardly live until November.

The sum of $2,000 has been raised to defray the expenses of the reception. OLD CANNON CAN'T BE BROKEN. Armament of Old Craft Was Made to Last. A good story is being told at the Mare Island navy yard concerning a San Francisco contractor who bought all the old obsolete cannon which were sold at the local yard some time ago. The cannon were all of the smooth bore kind, and in order that they might be easily handled for shipment to the city all sorts of schemes were tried to endeavor to break them with dynamite and blasting powder, but they were unsuccessful. An electric drill machine was even set up at the yards and the cannon were drilled full of holes in order to weaken them for breaking open with wedges, but this was also unsuccessful. The cannon were then taken away and the last heard of them they were corralled in the hills near Point Richmond, where an effort was being made to break them open with dynamite again. The cannon which proved to be so strong were among the armament of the war craft which sailed the seas in 1812. BLOOD GETS SOUR. Every Family Should Make Up This Home Mixture and Take Now. At this time of year, says a well-known authority, the Kidneys become weak, clogged and inactive, failing to filter out the poisons and acids, which sour the blood, causing not only facial and bodily eruptions, but the worst forms of Rheumatism, Nervous and Stomach troubles, Backache and painful, annoying Urinary afflictions. It is worth anyone's time now to get from some good prescription pharmacy the following ingredients: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after your meals and at bedtime. This simple home-made mixture will force the Kidneys to normal, healthy action, so they will filter and strain all uric acid and poisonous waste matter from the blood, and expel this in the urine, at the same time restoring the "full blood count"—that is, 95 per cent. red blood corpuscles—which is absolutely indispensable to perfect health. Indians In United States. In round figures, there are 284,000 Indians in the United States at the present time, 91,000 of whom are in Indian territory and 15,000 in Oklahoma, or 106,000 in the coming state. Those of Indian territory, the five civilized tribes—Cherokees, Creeks, Choc-taws, Chickasas and Seminoles—have been managing their own affairs for two-thirds of a century, and are in all respects fitted for the citizenship which they are soon to exercise. All of these, and nearly all of those in the Oklahoma end of the coming state, wear civilized dress, and have schools, churches and the other accompaniments of civilization.—Leslie's Tantalizing Man. "I see by the paper," said Mrs. Blinks at the breakfast table, "that a delegation of women suffragettes is coming to this country." Mr. Blinks said nothing. "And they're going to invade Washington and make a speech to the president, and all." Blinks still silent. "I declare," snapped the lady, "You're the most tantalizing man in existence. There you sit like a statue, never saying a word to show that you don't know what you're talking about." Hissed Japanese Flag.

"For about eight years," writes a Mich. woman, "I suffered from nervousness—part of the time down in bed with nervous prostration. "Sometimes I would get numb and it would be almost impossible for me to speak for a spell. At others, I would have severe billious attacks, and my heart would flutter painfully when I would walk fast or sweep. "I have taken enough medicine to start a small drug store, without any benefit. One evening our grocer was asking husband how I was and he urged that I quit coffee and use Postum, so he brought home a pkg. and I made it according to directions and we were both delighted with it. "So we quit coffee altogether and used only Postum. I began to get better in a month's time and look like another person, the color came back to my cheeks, I began to sleep well, my appetite was good and I commenced to take on flesh and become interested in everything about the house. "Finally I was able to do all my own work without the least sign of my old trouble. I am so thankful for the little book, 'The Road to Wellville.' It has done me so much good. I haven't taken medicine of any kind for six months and don't need any. "A friend of ours who did not like Postum as she made it, liked mine, and when she learned to boil it long enough, her's was as good as mine. It's easy if you follow directions." Name given by Postum Company, Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a reason." tombs. No other medicine in the country has received such unqualified indorsement or has such a record of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.

I had dull headaches, was nervous, irritable, and all worn out. Chancing to read one of your advertisements of a case similar to mine cured by Lydia E.

Sloan, Boston, Mass. Not a Single Stone Has Formed Since Using Doan's Kidney Pills. J. D. Daughtrey, music publisher, of Suffolk, Va., says: "During two or three years that I had kidney trouble I passed $2\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of gravel and sandy sediment in the urine. I haven't passed a stone since using Doan's Kidney Pills, however, and that was three years ago. I used to suffer the most acute agony during a gravel attack three years that I had kidney trouble I passed 2½ pounds of gravel and sandy sediment in the urine. I haven't passed a stone since using Doan's Kidney Pills, however, and that was three years ago. I used to suffer the most acute agony during a gravel attack, and had the other usual symptoms of kidney trouble—lassitude, headache, pain in the back, urinary disorders, rheumatic pain, etc. I have a box containing 14 gravel stones that I passed, but that is not one-quarter of the whole number. I consider Doan's Kidney Pills a fine kidney tonic." For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.

Many Children Take Sacrament. A notable confirmation took place recently in Dublin, at the pro-cathedral. Archbishop Walsh conferred the sacrament of confirmation on nearly a thousand children. The actual conferring lasted two hours, and the ceremony was concluded by the administering of the temperance pledge and a strong exhortation to the children to discharge faithfully all their religious duties. The extraordinary popularity of fine white goods this summer makes the choice of Starch a matter of great importance. Defiance Starch, being free from all injurious chemicals, is the only one which is safe to use on fine fabrics. Its great strength as a stiffener makes half the usual quantity of Starch necessary, with the result of perfect finish, equal to that when the goods were new. Humility ever dwells with men of noble minds—Feltham. MEN ADMIRE a pretty face, a good figure, but sooner or later learn that the healthy, happy, contented woman is most of all to be admired. Women troubled with fainting spells, irregularities, nervous irritability, backache, the "blues," and those dreadful dragging sensations, cannot hope to be happy or popular, and advancement in either home, business or social life is impossible.

Walts to match the skin are again the most fashionable this spring, but almost invariably is there a short coat or wrap to be worn with the gown. This is on the order of the short wrap with long shoulder effect, not generally becoming, it must be admitted, and yet decidedly smart. As a rule this style of wrap has the disadvantage that it completely hides any lines of the figure and unless cut exactly right gives the appearance of THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THE NEW YORK STREET LADY'S FASHION (1) Blouse costume of face cloth, trimmed with strappings of same. (2) Cape costume of cloth inset with coarse canvas. Blouse of Venetian gulpure. coat and skirt, is by no means to be tabooed, and blue and black serge costumes are always to be found in every thorough outfit. The palest of grays, almost white, the tans, so light as to be nearly yellow, the new faint shades of all colors, come within the possible and practical list, and all of these colors are suitable for long or a short, thick waist. However, it is not a fashion that is generally attempted, excepting by a dressmaker who so thoroughly understands her business that she studies lines, and she will cut the wrap in such wise that by adding an inch or two in the front or back the desired line is given, and, presto! the wearer of the gown looks as delightfully slender as she could possibly desire. Tassels and buttons play an important part in this season's clothes. The buttons are most decorative, often really artistic, while the tassels give a charming finish. Lace ruffles, jabots and ties, with ruchings of lace so arranged as to soften hard edges and yet for the lace itself not to show, seem to be the part of the elegancies of modern dress that suggest extravagance without too boldly asserting it. Buttons, buckles, lace, etc., add materially to the cost of the gown, also, which apparently is one of the desired points of modern dress; tassels and braiding are not so costly, although the silver tassels are by no means cheap. Shall skirts be plain or trimmed is a question that is still being most violently discussed, and a lot of argument is being wasted on the topic, for in these days no woman feels she is called upon to slavishly obey any of fashion's mandates, but can choose what best suits her own especial style of beauty. The long plain skirts are most delightfully graceful, outline a good figure to perfection, and yet are cut so wide that the flare below the hips takes away any idea of the old fashioned tight fitting skirt. With one of these perfectly hung and fitted skirts made of some handsome material, nothing is required to add to its beauty, and yet the `ide band of some contrasting material or embroidery is effective and very charming. In making a walking-skirt which is to be short, everything should be remembered and adopted that will give an appearance of length. Circular trimmings, therefore, ought to be avoided. A plaited skirt, with the plaits running downwards and stitched down firmly to about eight inches from the ground, is a very good style. Another desirable form of walking-skirt has stitched strappings covering the seams and extra plaits let in the lower part of each gore; this skirt is best made unlined. For a very tall woman a double skirt is not unfavorable if made with a deep point front and back cut up only at the sides. For more "dressy" gowns trains are indispensable. The corselet on the princess cut is most grazeful, and this also is seen made with a simulated underskirt, the part deeply pointed front and back as just described --- --- So often the spring season is so short that it seems as if the heat of summer followed immediately after the intense cold of midwinter, and then a cloth costume seems to be quite necessary, as there is really so little time to wear it, but the well dressed woman takes no chances on exceptional seasons and provides herself with a smart cloth costume of light weight, knowing that there will be plenty of days during the summer when such a costume will prove exactly the correct thing to wear. Shaggy rough materials and dark colors do not come under this head, although the light weight black cloth gown, made in some fanciful design, even in the eternal medium length coat and skirt, is by no means to be taboed, and blue and black serge costumes are always to be found in every thorough outfit. The palest of grays, almost white, the tans, so light as to be nearly yellow, the new faint shades of all colors, come within the possible and practical list, and all of these colors are suitable for long or THE HAT Two Pretty Hats. short coats and long or short skirts, although as the more elaborate designs are chosen the skirts should of right be long. Combining cloth and silk is to be immensely fashionable this season, and among the newest models are to be found some fascinating instances of this. The cloth skirt to be worn with silk, the soft finished silk coat, is most attractive, and absolutely new, and, in fact, were it not that the braiding on coat and skirt corresponds exactly it would be impossible to believe that the two were intended to be worn together. Soutache braiding is really one of the marked features of the season and is most extensively used on all materials and colors. Veling and silk have often been combined, but never to the extent they are this spring, and, as in the cloth and silk costume, the coat of silk is thought smarter than the coat of the same material as the skirt.

A citizen of Troyes has constructed a house for himself which is the wonder of the town and, it might be added, of France. Naturally, the wonder is accomplished by means of electricity. There are electric wires to every part of the house and garden and such a number of ingenious contrivances that it looks as if he had almost solved the domestic servant problem. A telephone connects every part of the premises with the garden gate. As soon as a visitor rings he hears the inquiry: "Who is there?" When he has given his name the master welcomes him through the telephone and the gate opens, and again closes when the visitor has entered. In the vestibule, before he is aware of it, magic brushes clean his boots, and the door opens automatically, while a mysterious voice tells him where to find the master of the house. The latter may be in his study taking a cup of tea and the visitor has only to express a wish when a second cup of tea appears on the table in answer to the pressure of the button. Meals are served in the same way, and come automatically from the kitchen, newspapers and letters are deposited on the drawing room table as soon as they are dropped in a box near the garden gate and most of the provisions for the kitchen are introduced in the same expeditious way. Heat and light, of course, are distributed at will all over the house, and at night a guest may have warm bottles at his feet by merely pressing a button. The inventor of the magic house has not yet altogether dispensed with servants, but while waiting for their entire abolition he is constantly within in earshot of the maid, the cook and the gardener, and the ubiquitous telephone transmits to him faithfully every word they say to each other, with the result that they dare not say one disparaging word about their master unless they are miles away from him. APPROVE NEW FRENCH LAW. Youth of the Country Emancipated by Measure. "The youth of France," says a Paris paper, "applauds the French law makers because of the bill which was recently passed wiping out a venerable clause in the Code Napoleon." The new law provides that "a marriage contract may be entered into between a man and a woman, each being 21 years old," without the consent of the parents of either. This," says the French writer, "is a long step toward the equality of man with woman. The woman, according to the old law, was fully competent to make a marriage agreement at 21, but the man, although 'of age' in all other respects at that time of his life, was compelled to wait four years if at 21 his parents refused to consent to his marriage. Children love their parents just as much as they ever did," says the writer, "but the abrogation of the law shows that the day of blind submissiveness is over and that the word 'subject' applied in the family or the state has a bad and a musty taste." Deterioration of the Mastiff. In an article entitled "Dogdom's 'Four Hundred,'" by R. F. Mayhew, in Everybody's, the writer deplores the mastiff's loss of prestige: "Some breeds there are," he writes, "that have been driven into obscurity by the unbridled craving of breeders for particular properties. Most lamentable of these is the case of the mastiff, who, 15 or 20 years ago, was the king of the heavy brigade. Size and massive heads became the alpha and omega of the breeders. Increase in size resulted in lumbering, overfed apathetics, and could not get out of their own way and only by an effort could support their calfish carcasses on sprawling legs and splay feet. And in the intensity of desire to produce massive heads the hither end of the wretched animal was forgotten, and paralyzed or semiparalyzed hindquarters were the result. Hence the downfall of the mastiff and, in a measure, of the St. Bernard. Their former position in the dog world is now occupied by the Great Dane, deerhound and the Russian wolfhound." A Hungry Waiter. He rushed up to the coffee stall. "I am famished!" he declared. Forthwith he made a meal of four courses—a ham sandwich, a hard-billed egg, a sardine sandwich and a cake. A bystander, waiting for a midnight train, is not sure of the exact order of that al fresco feast. He smacked his lips with satisfaction, and, tipping the proprietor, went off with the remark, "Quite enjoyed that! Haven't had a bite all day!" And the bystander, curious as to his calling, inquired on his departure. "Oh, he's a waiter over there," pointing to a huge railway hotel. It was a new and odd conception—that of this hunger-bitten carrier of eatables, himself starving in the midst of plenty!—London Chronicle. A Lost Opportunity. A Lost Opportunity.
