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 Universal Race Congress A Great Demonstration Held in London last Month. Europe's Judgment of our Right to Pose as a Civilized Nation. VOL. XVIII. Universa Race A Great Demonstration H Europe's Judgment of Civilized Since the Races Congress closed in London last month, civilized Europe has been shocked at the hideous exhibitions of race hatred permitted by thousands of native Americans in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, and in Oklahoma, who flocked to witness torture that would have disgraced humanity if inflicted by wild Apaches Europe's judgment of our right to pose as a civilized nation will be largely influenced by our stern determination or lukewarmness in punishment of the murderers. It was high time that a Races Congress should be summoned to proclaim to the world that this century has no more important problems to solve than those involved in the increased contact of the colored races of the world, which form the majority of its population, with the white race which forms the minority. The University of London offered one of its halls, at South Kensington, for the eight sessions, through which 1,200 delegates sat in oppressive July heat in faithful attendance until the end. The public was admitted at five shillings a session, and every delegate paid a guinea towards the heavy expenses of the Congress, which included giving each member before opening reports of 4500 pages containing the special papers which experts the world over had been invited to send. An American edition of this is now being brought out by the World Peace Foundation of Boston. With the exception of a few passages which one could have wished omitted this compendium of information and scientific conclusions from the scientists and economists of every land probably comprises the latest and best that can be said on the subject of "Inter-racial Problems," which is the title of the book. The Congress, under the presidency of Lord Weardale who was a genial and capable chairman, included Lord Morley, John Burns, M. P., the Archbishop of York and other equally eminent persons among its officers. Prof. Felix Adler of New York at whose suggestion the Congress was held, was very active in promoting the arrangements. As resolutions of a political character were excluded, an important meeting, aside from the Congress, pre- --- ceded it at Caxton Hall, at which eminent Englishmen handled the Morocco question without gloves and protested against the spoliation of Morocco, whether the thief be one government or another. Some would-be Christians, suspicious of anything which originated with an apostle of ethical culture, adsented themselves from the Congress, in apparent forgetfulness of the Master's rebuke to John for his refusal to sarcition the good work of those who were not openenly following Him. But those who had learned that there is one thing better even than the name of Christ, that is, the spirit of Christ, were rejoiced to see that spirit of love and good will beaming from the faces of men and women from every land and of every faith. The meetings of the Congress were devoted to discussions from five to twenty minutes long, of the above mentioned papers which were supposed to have previously been read. The list of the first papers discussed at each of the eight sessions will suggest the wide range of topics: "The Meaning of Race, Tribe and Nation," by Dr. Brandendranath Seal, principal of a college in India; "The Rationale of Autonomy," by John M. Robertson, M.P.; "Tendencies Toward Parliamentary Rule," by Dr. Chr. Lange, the secretary of the Interparliamentary Union, a Norwegian of great ability; Investments and Loans" by Dr. Navratil, a Hungarian professor of Political Enonemy; "Peaceful Contract Between Civilization," shown through science and art, by Prof. Tonnics of Kiel, Germany; "The Modern Conscience as Bearing on Dependent Peoples," by Sir Charles Bruce, late governor of Mauritius; "The World Position of the Negro," by Sir Harry H. Johnston, former consul-general in Africa; "International Law and Subject Races," by Sir John MacDonnell, professor of comparative law at the University of London; "The Press as an Instrument of Peace," Alfred H. Fried of Vienna. A distinguished Chinese official proved to be one of the most practical, a clergyman of Maori blood was one of the finest looking, and Dr. DuBois and our Sioux graduate of Dartmouth, Dr. East- DENVER. COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30 1911. State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House ONIZING MERC ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORAD man, were among the most popular speakers. Among the women speakers, white-haired Mrs. Bresant from India commanded instant attention, not only by her impressive, clear tones, but by her practical wisdom. In discussing child marriages she claimed the solution was to forbid any married boy to study in any college. She has gradually introduced the exclusion of married boys in one institution and is sure that if the missionaries and public authorities will force the youth to wait for marriage until after graduation they will then never consent to marry ignorant little girls. Miscegenation and other difficult questions were frankly and scientifically discussed. A very enlightened member of the Turkish Parliament whose life had been saved in the Revolution by a Robert College professor, presented the racial difficulties of his nation Persians with Aryan features but as dark as Ethiopians, told of their country's problems. An eloquent woman from South Africa presented the facts concerning the new peril to white women in lonely districts from native black men, but made it clear that the primary cause had been the evil done by white men. Among the experts on this problem, though a silent listener, one noted Dr. Seaman, who is working under the Rockefeller Foundation to rid the South of the hookworm. The remarkable success of the American School Peace League was described by an American woman, and the work of the Cosmopolitan Clubs in thirty of our colleges as presented by their secretary, Mr. Lochner, attracted such interest that at the close of the last session, a special little meeting of young men was held to arrange for extension of this work, which in the United States has brought 2,000 picked students from sixty nationalities together and is bound to be a mighty international force for peace. Among those at this little conclave was an English professor of political economy in a Chinese college, who has formed his students into an English House of Commons, who intelligently discuss, in English, current English politics before a be-wigged speaker of the House. These are presently to be converted into an American Congress The splendid receptions in connection with the Congress, the most magnificent being given by a New York lady, offered opportunity such as never before occured before for the son of the slave, the wife of an earl, the dark belle from Haiti and the blonde Scandivanian, the French diplomat and the beautifully-clad Hindoo, for rich and poor of every creed and shade of complexion, to meet as social equals and banquet in one ball. Each and all had had interesting experiences and one longed to hear them all, and realized the necessity of the demand, emphasized by Wu Ting Fang in his paper, for a world-auxiliary language, simple, phonetic and a medium for world business and acquaintance. Mr. Zangwill and his charming wife reminded one that it is not only the colored races that are oppressed. Race arrogance and venom have led to Kishineff programs and Adana massacres as well as to Coatesville auto da fis. It is time that the wail of sufferers, "How long, O Lord, how long?" give way to the practical, twentieth century cry which was the theme of the last address, "International Organization for Inter-Racial Goodwill," which was presented by the secretary of the World Peace Foundation. The first steps toward a permanent organization were taken then and there and of this the world will probably hear further if funds can be forth coming. Meanwhile, for Americans who want to be about their Father's business, the first step is to join a branch or to form a state branch of the National Society for the Advancement of Colored People, whose headquarters are in New York. Information of this can be obtained from Mr. Villard of the Evening Post or from the secretary, Prof. Dubois, and others. The First Universal Races Congress marks a milestone in that culture which outranks all learning and which can receive no diploma until one can say from his heart, "I count nothing human foreign to me."—Clay's Review Written by Lucia Ames Mead of Boston. THE GREAT AMERICAN GAME There is some doubt if baseball, after all, is the great American game. We play it, to be sure, but the colored people play it so much better that the time is apparently coming when it shall be known as the great African game. The St. Louis Giants, a black base-ball team, have easily beaten anything in town but the Browns and the Cardinals, and neither of these latter will play them. The Chicago Giants, all alligator bait, have done the same thing in this city, and there are no end of people up there willing to wager that they can beat either the White Sox or the Cubs. Your Negro is not a bad athlete. Peter Jackson only missed being heavy weight champion of the world because the holders of that title through the years of his prime would not fight him, and Jack Johnson, more fortunate, bestrides the earth today like a black Colossus. The greatest bicycle racer America ever produced was Major Taylor a Negro. Forced off on the other side of the track by the white conspiracy against him, he rode yards and hundreds of yards RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES The next convention of the National Medical Association at the cordial solicitation of Booker T. Washington and the Alabama State Medical Association, will be held in Alabama. Ninety-nine applicants for medical licenses in Indiana successfully passed the July examinations of the state board of medical examination. L. Aldridge Lewis, a Colored interne at the city hospital, making the highest grade. He received 947 out of the possible 1000 points. Three other applicants are in honor list of those receiving a grade of 900 or better. Lewis is the first colored applicant who has ever won first place in the medical examinations in Indiana. He was an honor man in the 1911 graduating class of the Indiana university school of medicine. Coatesville, Pa., Sept. 20.—The chief of police, one of his subordinates and two residents of the borough were arrested today as the result of indictments returned by the grand jury that investigated the burning to death of Zack Walker, a Negro murder, August 13. The jury returned indictments against Charles E. Umsted, chief of police of Coatesville, and Stanley Howe, a policeman, charging them with involuntary manslaughter, and Richard Tucker, an insurance agent, and Walter Markward, who are charged with the murder. The two police officers were admitted to bail, Tucker and Markward were sent to prison without bail. Laporte, Ind.—Miss Hazel Harrison, a young colored woman of his city, received a cablegram this week to come to Berlin, Germany, where an engagement awaits her which will give her audience as a pianist before the crowned heads of Europe. This is said to be the first time in the world's history that a colored woman has been made the recipient of such an further than any one else in the race, and still usually won it. Sudsequently the best riders of Europe sat up on their machines and watched the sunlight flash on his black heels. But it is in baseball that the descendent of Ham is at his athletic best. If the Browns and Cardinals will admit the St. Louis Giants to a three cornered series for the local championship this fall it will begin in St. Louis right away.—St. Louis Post Dispatch. NO 3 honor. Miss Harrison is the daughter of a barber and is credited with remarkable talent. The people of Laporte will unite in a monster farewell reception for the colored girl. At the bi-ennial session of the Mississippi Odd Fellows, which was recently held in Jackson, Grand Master Jones said that the sum of $507,000 had passed thru the hands of E. H. McKissock, secretary and treasurer of the Benefit Association of Mississippi in the last 4 years. He said that the greater share of this amount had gone to the widows and orphans, and that $78,000 was on hand as a balance. This is truely a fine showing for the Odd Fellows of Mississippi. Undertaker Parks, 3155 State street, Chicago has the distinction of having the first automobile funeral in the city. The funeral was that of Miss Mary Randell, 2526 Dearborn street, on Thursday last. There were six autos and six race men as chauffeurs. This is the first time in the history of Chicago that white men did not take a funeral out to the cemetary. Mr. Parks said, "I am glad the auto was invented for no other reason than it helps the black man as well as the whites; while I don't intend to use all race men, I want to show the working classes of the whites who objected to our race as drivers in their line. I will not stone them, but will give them work also." He also says he can and will furnish you an auto funeral cheaper than you can get a carriage funeral. New Orleans, La., September 19.—The New Orleans School Board has decided to grant the colored people of the Seventh ward a public school for their children. The Negro citizens of the ward have organized an educational league and under the auspices of the organization recently gave an entertainment for the purpose of raising funds with which to buy a place for the erection of a public school building. Over $1,000 has been raised and paid on account of a public school building. November 15 the payment will be increased to $1,800. The school officials have been very much impressed with the efforts of the Negro citizens. The new institution will increase the number of colored schools in the State of Louisiana to 1,044, and the number of school properties turned over the state by Negroes for school purposes to 643.

The report is by C. C. Georgson, special agent. Potatoes, for example, are proving a most successful crop in that far northern region, and are men: tioned in the report as one of the big agricultural possibilities of the territory—a most valuable contribu tion to the food supply of the country Representatives of the railroads were the chief witnesses before Inter. state Commerce Commissioner Prouty at the wool-rate hearing in Salt Lake, testifying on long haul shipments competition, and the desirability o! wool as freight. J. A, Reeves, genera freight agent of the Oregon Shor! Line, asserted that the present rates on wool and pelts were not unreason able and could not well stand reduc tion, The wool men had an inning after which the hearing was conclud ed. ‘They offered corroborative testi mony to show the condition of the wool-growing industry and how it would be helped by a reduction of rail road rates.

Fire broke out in the ammunition hold of the French battleship Liberte, near Marseilles, and a terrific expl>- sion followed, blowing the ship open, and 500 of the crew are reported drowned. Wenceslao Franco, a resident of Acala, a small town in the state of Chiapas, Mexico, was crucified by the rebellious Chamula Indians when they sacked that place, according to a tele- gram received by El Imparcial from ‘Toxtla Gutierrez, the state capital. ‘The Amalgamated Society of Rail- ‘way Servants of Ireland haye called a general strike on the Irish railways.

By their de- feat of the Des Moines club and the corresponding victory of Pueblo over St. Joseph, the Bears climbed the last rung of the championship ladder, and for the first time since 1900, the pen- nant belongs to Denver.

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Observant persons who are in constant contact with the diversified interests of the race, must admit that there is a rapidly increasing need for young men and young women of business and commercial training. It is a fact that we are turning our attention toward business pursuits more now than toward the professional or industrial. Banks are being established on all sides by men of color, both in the north and in the south; colored insurance companies are operating successfully in every state of the southern group; secret orders are flourishing among our people, and must secure office forces for their home and branch offices; publication houses and newspapers are being run for the benefit of our people; drug stores are open in cities and towns throughout the southland; churches are developing to such magnitude that pastors must employ private secretaries; denominational departments must have office forces; stores must have bookkeepers and clerks—the demand for the commercially trained will soon become far-reaching and insistent. Where will our young people secure training to fit them for these positions? Our colleges continue to turn out school teachers, and those prepared along this line must scuffle for place because of a seeming oversupply, while the negro business man worries along with ill-prepared help of a clerical sort. The young negro, too, is entering business for himself with practically no knowledge of bookkeeping and business forms. We are not venturing to criticise our institutions of learning. They have done, and are doing, a great work well. Why are they not awaking to this growing need? To our certain knowledge thorough commercial courses are not conducted in a half-dozen reputable negro colleges in all this broad southland. Yet the need of which we speak is growing yearly in an ever increasing ratio. Where must the stenographers, bookkeepers, salesman, clerks, etc., come from whom we need now and will need in larger numbers in the future? Their employers can do but little toward training them. A sufficient number to meet the demand cannot go north to pursue courses in business colleges and commercial departments there. Young people can often be heard inquiring where they can learn shorthand, typewriting and bookkeeping, and if private instruction cannot be procured, they drift into mental employment. Distinct colored commercial colleges are hardly possible at this time. With but a slight outlay for colleges already in operation can meet the need. Many who will not take complete literary or industrial courses would enter college to receive commercial training with such literary subjects as a commercial course would require. Honestly and conscientiously we feel that along this particular line negro colleges will soon be a decade behind the times. It is here they can be to the young people an added benefit. We are hoping many of them will awaken to a situation that may be before long become serious, and put in with their courses one to give practical commercial training.—Southern Life Magazine. Baroness Von Groyss, wife of George S. Wilkins of New York, has strong hope of solving the American servant problem. She brought with her from the Philippines a Filipino girl named Dogima." "My husband was a commissioner to the Philippines," she said, "and while there I found the native girls splendid servants. My idea is to open schools for them in this country and solve our vexed servant problem. I have already been promised help by society women for various entertainments I will give to get the schools started." Andrew Carnegie, she said, is to furnish all the books that are necessary for the establishment of the schools.—Southern Life Magazine. The present age not only calls for a suffering ministry—it is also ripe for a well prepared ministry, one having not only the zeal, but knowledge of what constitutes a real Christian life.—Ex. Jack Johnson seems determined to bring away a small cargo of English coin when he sails for his return to America. By his contract to fight Bombadier Wells he receives $50,000 before entering the ring. This, with other contracts, will net him $125,000 income for another year.—Exchange. Joseph E. Johnson, colored, formerly a stenographer to Speaker Cannon, received the appointment as stenographer to the commission investigating second-class postage rates, of which Associate Justice Hughes is chairman. Haiti retains its reputation as a hotbed of revolution. Antione Simon is no longer president, having been driven out of the country by General LeConte, who now occupies the presidential chair. C. R. Patterson & Son, colored, builders of fine wagons and buggies, have the largest business of its kind in Greenfield, O. Education and wealth are both beset with many dangerous perils. Especially is this true in a race that had its building in race building like ours had forty-five years ago. Some of the few who have been specially favored with the advantages of an academic and college education, and likewise some of the few that have been blessed with the tact for acquiring some wealth, have had good sense to know and to feel that their highly favored conditions only entailed upon them the more the task of helping to raise those of the race who were less favored. Then there have been others of the favored few who have felt, judging by their actions, that their education and wealth was to put them beyond the reach of their fellows and thus leave them to struggle up the hill by themselves, or else wither and die in the misery of their own ignorance and poverty.—Western Star. Our attention has been called to the neglect of infant baptism by some of our pastors. There is no service that should be more eagerly sought and more faithfully performed. See to it brethren that every child in your congregation is baptised and properly instructed in the things that "pertain to his soul's health." Infant baptism is not only a beautiful and impressive sacrament but one that means so much to the permanent growth of the church and contributes largely to the saving of the individual—Star of Zion. There are quite a number of business enterprises in Greater New York controlled and managed by the members of our race which are not receiving the support from our people that they should. In the particular neighborhood where these enterprises are located are thousands of negroes who spend thousands of dollars. It would be to the interest of negroes to give a larger proportion of the money they are now spending to their own stores. Negroes should build up their own. Harlem and other localities have large negro populations and are splendid fields for business development among negroes.—New York Age. The movement for colored hospitals and hospital work seems to be increasing. In Columbia, S. C., a new hospital is planned by Dr. Matilda Evans. In Spartanburg, S. C., a hospital already established has treated 150 patients and spent $1,200 in charitable work. It is appealing for more funds. In Annapolis, Md., the state is preparing for an $80,000 building for a negro hospital for the indigent insane. —Ex Some interest is being created by the employment of colored girls as waiters in the place of men by a famous hotel at Raleigh, N. C. The Richmond Times-Dispatch, a white daily, says of the innovation: "It opens a new field for the colored girls, and should go a long way towards solving another of the difficult problems with which innkeepers have to deal. There is no reason why the plan should not work, as the same service has been found entirely satisfactory in thousands of southern homes." The negroes of South Carolina should feel proud of the fact that they enjoy access to so many colleges and higher institutions of learning. They should also feel grateful to the men and women who, for many years, have been at the head of these respective institutions. Year by year since its establishment each of these institutions has grown in importance and in favor with the people.—Southern Ploughman. By legal proceedings John Wilson, a former servant of Mrs. Sarah Hendrickson, deceased, of Walnford, N. J., established his right to the estate which had been in the family for over two hundred years. Mrs. Hendrickson agreed to convey all her property to Wilson for debts aggregating more than $8,000. After her death Wilson pressed his claim and won the suit. The leader of the "Back to Africa" movement in Los Angeles, Cal., went to that continent and inspected some portions. He comes back saying no Africa for him. It's something you gotter get used to, you cannot find America everywhere. The Mississippi negro is nothing if he is not energetic. That he has turned many an obstacle to a source of help is patent to all. One of the new enterprises among negroes in Mississippi is the Colored Realty company, promoted by Mr. John J. Jefferson, secretary, of Purvis, Miss. Leading daily newspapers of the south praised to the highest the talent displayed at the negro music festival recently held in Atlanta, Ga. The rendition of productions was characterized by one of them as "really wonderful." Over 200 colored students, mostly from the south, are attending Chicago university.

In a special election the Canucks overwhelmingly defeated the proposition and curned its champions out of office. Some Americans claim that the voters on this side of the line would have done the same thing if they had the chance to vote on it. Now they will probably never have that chance. ‘There are about nine million people in Canada, and Mr. Taft and those who supported the reciprocity proposal claim that it would have been to the immeasurable commercial and economic benefit of the people of both coun- tries if the measure, already adopted by the United States, had been accepted by Canada, But the Canadians feared that they would be swallowed by some unforeseen gulping power of the versatile Yankee. But Mr. ‘Taft still has a chance to negotiate an acceptable substitute for what he has lost in Canada. ‘There are ten million people right here at home who are open to diplomatic provisions for reciprocal domestic relations with the other eighty millions, and the opportunity is going begging. ‘There is wealth in mere numbers and their power of production, and it does not matter so much what kind of peo- ple they are, if they are decent and industrious. The people we refer to could be rapidly developed, not only as an invaluable commercial asset, but as a compatible integral domestic power. They are already coming along slowly under restricted, provisions which some Americans seem to think broad and free enough, but there is no real, scientific reason why the government should not make the relations and opportunities reciprocal in every way, just as it so earnestly attempted to do with foreigners, Of course, the methods would differ a little, but the mutual beneficial results would lay the now lost, Ca- nadian dream away in the shade. GOOD WHITE MEN. SOMETIMES our drooping souls are lifted up by the reassuring argu: ments in white men’s newspapers and magazines, endeavoring to prove to their readers that all Negroes are not bad Negroes, as many of those readers: seem prone to assume, but that there are good Negroes as well as bad Ne- groes, and that the good should not be made to suffer for the bad. This argu- ment is very necessary, for there are thousands of white people who are not inclined to believe any such statements. It is about time that our own newspapers began to return the compliment, for there is some necessity for proving that all white men are not bad white men, but that there are good and bad white men, just as there are good and bad Negroes, and that the good white man should not be classed indiscrimi- nately with the bad white man. We have often heard the conclusive argu- ment that “a white man is a white man,” the meaning being that upon some possible test regarding the Negro, every white man will finally fall short of proving himself a whole-hearted and fair-minded brother. True, we do not carry this thought uppermost in our minds, but the events of life sometimes drive us to the expression of such an underlying conviction of heart, no less distinct and emphatic than that of the self-exhalting white man regarding us. But it is a mistake. There are some white men and women—perhaps we ought to say many white men and women—who represent the acme of nobility in their consistent and enduring attitude toward the peoples of other and less advanced races, and these men and women deserve an appreciation and an admiration entirely above that which is given to those who are ordinarily called good. The white man who puts his race everlastingly above all other races of earth and thereby assumes a superior right to the very breath of life, calls himself a good white man, but he is a bad one, Some white men assume the sanctity of the saints and preach the gospel of the Holy One, with a special, self-adopted dispensation of front seats and exclusive blessings for white people, and consider themselves not only good but devout white men, but they are really bad white men. Yet there are those who face the scorn and the calumny of their fellows and the small un- derstanding and ingratitude of their beneficiaries, and, regardless of mental and social differences and the sacrifice of natural advantages and their at- tendant glories, who persistently, unflaggingly and without wearying, hold up the hands of the weak and proclaim the equality of God’s gifts to men, Their faith and their unselfishness are not only noble but wonderful. ‘As honest men, we must admit that the Negro has many distinct faults; they are excused, as we excuse them, as human. We must confess that the Negro, by the very reason of racial and social differences, creates a domestic problem full of incongruities difficult to eradicate; but these good white men and women call them natural, as we call them natural, and preach the doc- trine of patience, forbearance, kindness and helpfulness to their haughty own. Perhaps you will say there are few such white men. But there are many. ‘And what is best, they form that wonderful minority which constitutes what js called the leaders of thought and of progress. There may be but a few in each community, or there may be many in some communities and few in others, but they are scattered everywhere—north, south, east and west. That is why, in spite of bitter opposition and oppression, the way has been opened for our progress, and that is why it will remain open. The good white man is one of God’s noblemen. May his tribe increase! When a married man takes a lttle gift out to the wife in the county every time he goes out to spend the week-end and tells her not to worry about him because he is getting along fine, then it is time for her to make a short, unannounced visit in town. Yes, Indeed. RECIPROCITY. If you are troubled with gout you should drink at least one quart of but- termilk a day.

AT HOUSE CLEANING SOME POINTS WORTH KEEPING IN THE MEMORY. Much Labor Can Be Saved by Know: Ing Just What Are the Best Things to Use—Proper Care of Silver. Brass can be polished by rubbing with a mixture of powdered chalk— precipitate kind used for tooth pow- der—rubbed into a paste with lemonn Juice. Let it dry on and polish with ‘chamois. There is an excellent po- ‘made that is a good brass cleaner. In applying any pomade or paste for ‘cleansing it will be more efficacious if moistened with kerosene instead ‘ot water. In the same way use alcohol for silver pastes. Old copper can be rubbed bright quickly with lemon skins and galt or salt and vinegar. Let it stay on very short time and polish with cham ols. Where silver that is kept in chests most of the year must bv cleaned it will save time to boil in soapsuds, to which has been added a good-sized lump of washing soda. Rinse thor. oughly in hot water and, if extra pol- ish 1s necessary, rub up with a Mttle silver powder. Put your silver back in the chest dn tissue paper wrappings and a lump of camphor in the box and you will be saved work the next time it is tak- en out. Never use soapsuds on cut glass. Wash in ammonia water—not so hot as to crack the glass—scrub with a fine brush in the facets, rinse in fresh ammonia water and dry for an hour or more in cheap, fine sawdust. This brushes out quickly and your pieces shine like new. When cleaning the china closet do not content yourself with just dusting off unused sets with a damp cloth China should be well scrubbed at least once a year or it may stain. Soak for half an hour in lukewarm soapsuds and rinse in clear water, not too hot, or it will crack delicate porcelain. Stains on china can be removed with a llttle dry salt or by rubbing well with wood ashes moistened with kerosene. If you do not superintend the wash- ing of your own fine china, insist up- on the maid using a rubber pad in the bottom of the dishan and not putting in too many pleces at a time. Have a good carpet soap for rugs and carpets, or use a fine olive oil soap, scrub well with the lather, rinse twice, once in lukewarm water, then fn cold. Rub until nearly dry, then hang in the air. If floors are much stained and can not be done over, wipe off carefully with gasoline, then rub to polish with a mixture of half a pound of porce- lain, a quarter pound of beeswax, melt ed and mixed when hot with four ta- blespoonfuls of turpentine. Beat un- til cold. Apply with flannel, rub with another piece, and polish with fron covered with wool padding and fine velveteen, if you have no regular floor polisher. Sparkling Mead, Sparkling mead is made by bolling fourteen pounds of honey in six gal- lons of water for half an hour, break- ing into it four eggs; then stir into this a half ounce each of cinnamon, cloves, mace and bruised ginger, and small bunches of marjoram, balm and sweetbrier; boil a quarter of an hour Jonger and pour out to cool. Then toast a large slice of brown bread, spread {t over with fresh yeast, and put it into the lquor. Let it ferment for a day, and then put It into a cask, but keep {t open till the fermentation 1s complete. Then cork the cask tightly. This may be bottled in a month, and {f bottles are used which have not the patent spring stoppers the corks must be securely tied. Escalloped Cabbage, Hscalloped cabbage is a delicious dish made from left-over boiled new cabbage. Cut half a boiled cabbage in pleces, put in a buttered baking dish, sprinkle with salt and pepper and ‘one cupful of white sauce. Lift the cabbage with a fork that it may be well mixed with the sauce, cover with ‘one cupful of buttered cracker crumbs and bake in a hot oven until the crumbs are brown. From one-quarter to one-third of a cupful of melted but- ter may be evenly coated and light rather than compact. Boiled Dinner. For a family of from four to six, seven pounds of corned beet will be required. Brisket 1s best. Cut one large cabbage into quarters, slice two turnips an inch thick, then slice six of each carrots, parsnips and potatoes. Put the beef over the fire in a large pot and cook steadily five hours. An hour before serving add the vegetables and cook until tender. Put meat on large platter and surround with vege- tables. Sliced beets in vinegar are nice with this dish. Cooking Asparagus. Prepare {t same as you would to cook in boiling water, but instead of putting in a double botler without any water except what remains on {t from washing, put in a Iittle salt and cook same as you would oatmeal, It takes about two hours to cook, but {s much nicer cooked this way. Rainmarks. Rainmarks upon clothes may be re moved by placing a clean damp cloth upon the material and pressing witb a enthavatale warn iron. ——— We are going to sell the best Suits that can be had for the money, and make all alterations without extra charge.

CAPT. S. H. JOHNSON'S VISIT. Capt. Silas H. Johnson of hose company No. 3, returned home Thursday from Kansas City and St. Louis, where he spent his vacation very pleasantly. He was wined and dined by his numerous friends. The rest did him good, as he has gained several pounds in weight. The following clipping is from the Central Afro-American of St. Louis: "Mr. Silas H. Johnson, Capt. of Engine Co. No. 3 D. F. D., Denver, Colo., was an interesting visitor to our city this week. He was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. A. Thornton, of 2429 Alberta avenue. He has charge of Company No. 3 of the Colored Denver Fire Department. When asked the efficiency of the colored fire men in Topeka, Omaha, Chicago, Kansas City, Kans., and Kansas City, Mo., St. Paul, Indianapolis, Ohio, Nashville and other points he said: "The valiant service they give is peerless. The dauntless courage they possess in warfare spurs them on in the fire department service to welcome unsightly deaths for the sake of rescuing some one." A large city like St. Louis, says he, should not be without so brave a body of colored citizens as a colored fire department." BEHOLD THE CONQUERING HERO COMETH. On Tuesday, October 3rd, President W. H. Taft will be in Denver. Chairman Jesse F. McDonald has announced that a reception for the Republican executive will be tendered him in the ordinary of the Brown Palace Hotel at 4:30 p. m. of that date. The coming of the President at this time demonstrates the fact that regardless of adverse criticism, he is not ashamed to face the masses in defense of his policies, which he considered to be for the best interest of the country as a whole. With him there is absolutely no desire to dodge the issue, or the responsibility that naturally rests upon him and his remarks "if correctly quoted by the newspapers" places him in a class "so far as presidents are concerned," almost alone. Like Pilate, he has no changes to make—what I have done I have done. THE ALLIANCE NOTES OF THE HARRIS CASE.

MEDICAL MEN AT HAMPTON Titrtesnt Anni Session of Negro Medical Association Most Notable of All. NEXT SESSION AT TUSKEGEE CLAIM Hi NEGRO 18 INHER. WORM DISEASE, DENIED-IN. TERESTING PAPERS READ. Hampton, Va—At the thirteenth annual session of the National Med: {eal association, held in this city last week, Dr. H. F. Gamble of Charleston, 'W. Va., was elected president to suc- ceed Dr. A. M, Curtis of Washington, D.C. The election of officers resulted as follows: H. F. Gamble, Charleston, W. Va, president; William A. Cox, Cambridge, Mass, _ vice-president; John A. Kenney, Tuskegee institute, Ala., general secretary; F. H. Hlliott, Portsmouth, Va., assistant secretary; ‘I. R. Levy, Florence, 8. C., treasurer; Harry 8. Pope, Baltimore, pharmaceu: tical vice-president; Julia P. Cole- man, Washington, D. C., pharma ceutical secretary; Dr. George Can- non, Jersey City, N. J., chairman of the executlve board (re-elected); Dr. W. E. Sterrs, Decatur, Ala., secretary of the executive board (re-elected). Dr. A. M. Curtis of Washington. D. C., was chosen from the surgical section to fill the vacancy on the executive board caused by the expira- tion of the term of Dr. George Cleve- land Hall of Chicago. Dr. J. A. Rob- inson of Darlington, S. C., was se- lected to fill the place just vacated by Doctor Cannon, who !s now a mem- ber-atlarge. The other members of the executive board are: N. F. Mos- sell, Philadelphia; Amanda V. Gray, Washington, D. ©.; ©. N. Marshall, Washington, D. C.; M. A. Van Horn, Newport, R. 1; J. W. Jones, Winston: Salem, N. C.; M. F. Wheatland, New: port, R. I. ‘Tuskegee institute, Ala, was select ed as the next meeting place of the association in response to a cordial invitation extended by Booker. ‘Washington and the Alabama State Medical association. Doctor Gamble, the newly-elected head of the N. M, A., has been a tire: Jess worker for the success of the or ganization, and his election to the presidency aroused much enthusiasm ‘This year's election passed off smoothly and was void of any sensa- tional features. In the preliminary canvass, Dr. C. H. Shepard of Dur- ham, N. C,, recelyed a complimentary vote, but he promptly moved to make the selection of Doctor Gamble unant- mous. In its resolution the association re. affirmed {ts devotion to the work of improving the physical condition of the race; recommended the appoint ment of a committee to further the development of a closer relationship between the national and local bodies, and urged that local organizations as. sume a more active and less spas modic leadership in the campaign against tuberculosis, high infantile and child mortality, and unsanitary conditions that beset us. ‘The N. M. A. tendered sincere thanks to the officers of Hampton Institute for thelr kindness in placing their bufldings and grounds at the disposal of the association, and ac: knowledged Its indebtedness to Dr. W. E. Atkins and his associates on all ‘of the local committees of the Tide water Medical association and the citizens at large of this section. The declaration also voted the deep sense of aprpeciation felt by all visitors for the gracious welcome address of the mayor of Hampton; for the very full reports of the proceed ings of the meetings published each day by the local press; to Superin- tendent B. J. Megginson of the Hamp- ton Roads Traction company, for the extra facilities extended in operating cars béyond the usual hours and for the uniform courtesy extended by the employes of the company; and to the pastor and members of the First Bap- tist church for their generosity in al- lowing the use of thelr handsome ed!- flee for a public meeting. Dr. A. M. Curtls presided, and tn his annual address he made a number of recommendations looking to the de- velopment of the N. M. A. He urged a closer union between the national and state bodies. The work of the several sections stood out in bold rellef and was of an unusually high order. The meet- ings were full of lfe and the pro- grams were carried out as planned, supplementing in harmonious fashion the labors of the general convention. ‘The papers faithfully reflected the rapid advance made in the threefold professions embraced by the associa- tion. Surgical section, Dr. A. M. Brown, Birmingham, Ala, chairman; Dr. R. L, Jones, Charleston, W. Va., secre- tary; medical section, J. J. France, Portsmouth, Va. chairman; dental section, Dr. Roscoe C. Brown, Rich- mond, Va., chairman; Dr. C. 0. Lee, Winston-Salem, N. C.,_ secretary; pharmaceutical section, Dr. W. L. Board, Washington, D. C., chairman. Commissions to Continue Their Work. Dr, J. A. Kenney’s report as chair man of the commission to Investigate the cause and extent and cure of the hookworm ditease was an ex- haustive presentation of the subject He held that the statistics showing the negro to be inherently susceptible to this malady are false, and that an honest Investigation will demonstrate that the colored people are no more susceptible to the hookworm than any other people under like conditions. ‘The leaders of the medical profession are asked to insist upon membership in the national anti-hookworm com mission, and thus see to it that the facts are honestly placed before the public Dr. M. F. Wheatland’s report from the commission on — tuberculosis evoked a vigorous discussion. Dr. A M. Townsend's study of pellagra com- plaint opened a profitable line of dis- cussion and Doctor Gamble’s recom mendation that the commission on medical education be allowed sufll- cient funds to make his Investigation rellable and accurate, found favor. The commissions continue their in- vestigations, The report of Dr. C. V. Roman on the status of the Journal of the Na- tional Medical association, with unique appeal for support, was one of the most impressive deliverances of the week In addition to the many papers and discussions of scientific value by members of the medical, surgical, dental and pharmaceutical branches of the association a number of dis- tinguished visitors were present and offered words of encouragement. Prominent among them were Dr. W. ‘t. Vernon, former register of the treasury, now United States super- visor of Indian schools, here on off- clal business; Dr. Charles F. Meserve, president of Shaw university, Ra- leigh, N. C.; Maj. R. R. Moton, com- mandant of cadets at Hampton Inst!- tute; Prof, James B. Dudley, prest- dent of the A. and M. college, at Greensboro, N. C., and Dr. James EB. Shepard, president of the National Religious Training school, at Durham, N.C.

Roberts, New York city, and “Observation, Use and Abuse of Salvarsan.” by Dr. U, G. Mason, Birmingham, Ala. All of the papers were meritorious and will ap- pear in the Journal of the N. M, A. No previous meeting of the associa- tion equaled this year's in the number and brilliance of the social features presented. The presence of an un- usually large number of ladies from abroad added to the bevy of beauty always to be found in the Tidewater region. ‘Every evening there were dances at Buckroe Beach; at the lawn fete free boat rides, auto rides, ox- cart rides and a feast of watermelon, amid festoons of electric bulbs and Japanese lanterns, were provided; end the reception given by the bache- lors of Hampton was an enjoyable affair. The plece de resistance was the grand banquet in the gymnasium, at which 1,500 guests sat down to a most sumptuous repast. Doctor At- kins acted as toastmaster. Responses were made by Maj. R. R, Moton, Dr. ©. V. Roman, Dr. W. F. Penn, Dr. F. G. Elliott, Dr. Norman Lassiter, Lawyer J. Thomae Newsome, B. C. Brown, Dr. W. T. Foreman and Rev. A. A. Graham. At the close the en- tire party was escorted to the pa- vilion at Buckroe Beach for the grand ball, special cars having been pro- vided for the occasion through the courtesy of the local traction com- pany. With a delightful excursion to Jamestown {sland and Claremont and a farewell afternoon at Buckroe, re- gretful adieus were said, and the fes: tivities as well as the serious activ: itles of the thirteenth annual session of the National Medical assoclation came to an end. RACES FORM PEACE PACT BLACKS AND WHITES OF SLIDELL, LA. MAKE AGREEMENT THAT THERE SHALL BE NO RACE WAR IN TOWN, AND THAT ALL DIFFERENCES SHALL BE SET- TLED BY ARBITRATION. New Orleans.—Negroes and whites of Slidell, La., a lumber town directly across Lake Pontchartrain from New Orleans, haye drawn up and signed: & formal treaty wherein It 1s agreed that there never shall be @ race war in the town, but that all differences between the races shall be submitted to arbitration. ‘This unusual compact came as a re- sult of the attitude of the negroes to- ward the murder of James Smith, a policeman, at a dance hall, ‘The po- liceman was killed by a negro or ne- groes. A posse 1s in search of the murderers and in it are a number of black residents. ‘The negroes met at their Odd Fel- lows hall and adopted resolutions which close as follows: Resolved, That we, the colored citt- zens of Slidell, do solemnly register our disapproval of the murder and do hereby tender our assistance to the officials of Slidell in bringing to jus- tice the culprit or culprits who per- perated the atrocious crime. Be it further Resolved, That we extend to the be- reaved family our hearty sympathy in the hour of their aftction Resolved, further, that the thanks of this town are tendered to the white citizens for the able manner in which peace and harmony between the whites and blacks have been pre- served. The drawing of the treaty by blacks and whites followed. The gist of the treaty is that it 1s the sense of residents, both white and negro, “that all confifets and acts of violence between blacks and whites are se- yerely condemned, and that all fric- tion arising between members of the two races shall be submitted to a committee for settlement.” Slidell has 8,000 residents, about equally divided. Its chlef industry 1s the creosoting of lumber. “BLIND ELLEN” DEAD. Buffalo, N. ¥.—In the death of Mrs. Bllen Johnson, familiarly known as “Blind Ellen,” Buttalo loses one of its oldest citizen’ and Vine Street Church one of its oldest members. Blind from birth and lying to the age of 80 years. She was well known by the children of many generations. Hundreds have always been glad to lead her from home to church and to various places of interest. Mrs. Johnson was edu- cated at the Batavia school for the blind and was proud to count as one of her former classmates and assoct- ates Miss Fannie Crosby, the noted blind hymn writer, whose songs have stirred the hearts of two generations. Mrs. Johnson was interested in every- thing that pertained to the uplift of her people and always gave her sup- port, although meagre, whenever she could Some women remember the compll- ments of courtship days and forget that their three meals a day came from dad’s pockets. NEGRO FARM INSTITUTE MAKES GREAT SUCCESS Atlanta, Ga.—The Interest in negro farmers institutes in Georgia culmt- nated at Clark untversity by perfect- ing @ permanent organization for per petuating this Important work. P, C. Parks, who has done more than any other single man in the state to foster this beneficial institu- tion, was unanimously elected director of the Georgia Colored Farmers’ tn- stitute, with authority to arrange for another meeting next summer. Director Parks had on display at- tractive samples of the nine different grades of cotton which have become ‘the recognized standards of cotton ‘classification in the markets of the world, The discussion of the grading of cot- ton developed many valuable points and a number of farmers offered re marks concerning the careful picking and storing of cotton so as to Insure the highest market. ‘The wife of Warren Logan, the treasurer of Booker T, Washington's great Institution at Tuskegee, Ala., urged those present to make a care- ful and painstaking study of the ques- tion of the cultivation and marketing the great staple crop of the south in order that they should be in position to know positively the exact grade of cotton that thelr own product came under, and thus enable them to dic- tate to the buyer the price they ex- pected to receive. She cited in- stances where humb!e colored farm- ers in her section of Alabama had ex- ercised care in seed selection, in the cultivation of the growing crop and in the picking of the cotton, and had in that way outstripped their neighbors. P. D. Johnson pleaded with the ne- groes to use greater foresight and to erect dry cotton houses on their farms, where the cotton could be rtored after tt came from the fleld, and said that tt was far better to store the seed cotton for a few weeks in a clean place than to rush {t to the gin as soon as it was picked. He also argued that too great haste had heretofore marked the harvesting of the crop and begged his audience to wait until the bolls were thoroughly ripe before they were picked; also to be sure to remove the chaff or trash before they deposited the lint in the basket. Professor Johnson dwelt on the mis- ery of the “negro-Indebt” and hoped the colored farmers would learn the lesson of frugality and common sense in order to escape from this great burden ‘A. Bentley, an ante-bellum darky, with snow white hair and a volce that readily lent itself to all the uses of oratory, made an address that sank deeply ‘at the tendency of the new generation of negroes toward Irre- sponsibility. He made a striking con- trast between conditions as they exist- | ed before the war and as they exist | today, His speech called to mind the eloquence that marked the earlter | years of the last century, and his hear- ers gave vent to their approval by frequent outbursts of applause. G. F, Hunnicutt, editor of the Soutb- ern Cultivator, made an address on “Growing What You Eat on the Farm,” and stated that if the farmers of the south hoped to maintain a high price for ootton they must cease planting every available acre of ground in this crop. In order to keep from buying every article of consump- tion at retail prices, the speaker sald they must raise more corn, oats and hay and give greater attention to their gardens. He showed the enor- roous economic waste entailed by fer- tillzing and cultivating twenty acres ‘of cotton when by fertilizing and cul- tivating only fifteen acres the farmer would get just as much cash for his crop and save the labor and fertilizer that applied on the extra five acres, while devoting those five acres to pro- ducing things now purchased for cash pene ae MEET AT PITTSBURG sets _KNIGHTS AND DAUGHTERS OF TA: BOR HOLD EIGHTH ANNUAL i GRAND SESSION. Pittsburg, Pa—The annual grand session of the Knights and Daughters of Tabor, or International Order of ‘Twelve, was held in this city at Con- tinental hall, Center avenue.

Bates, of Ebenezer Baptist Church choir, of which the Rev. W. W. Brown is pastor, is an ac- tive member. In speaking of the society one of the prominent members said: “There is no possibility of any of the white associations entering law suits re: straining us from using their signs, ‘emblems and regalia, for everything we are using is the product of negro brains.” Better to have fished and lied than never baited hook at all.

INTERESTED Western Newspaper Umon News Bervice. ‘Washington.—The acuteness of the corporation control question has led officials of the Department of Jus- tice to believe that when the Presi- dent returns he will give immediate and serious attention to the matter of securing federal legislation which will enable the great commercial compa- nies to secure government incorpora- tion. Two years ago the President and Attorney General Wickersham dis- cussed federal incorporation at great length, and a bill to secure it, unde proper safeguards, was prepared by the Department of Justice and sub- mitted to Congress. No definite action was taken, and recently it has been said that Presi- dent Taft had no intention further to urge the adoption of the legislation. The steel trust and harvester trust troubles and the general condition of uncertainty and anxiety manifest in the great business centers, it is be- lieved now, may lead to an active ef- fort to secure at the coming session passage of a law which will give the government supervision over affairs of commercial institutions which care to take advantage of the act. ‘Things haye changed in Congress. ‘The Democrats are in control of the House. The question is, what posi- tion will the majority party leaders take in connection with federal con- trol of corporations. Representative ‘Underwood has said that the tariff will be the only issue at the next ses- sion, He may be mistaken. The re- cent Supreme Court decisions and the troubles of the great corporations generally may force commerce to the front, but a commerce having no re: eee in this specific case to the tar- ‘The President has said that the Sherman law needs no amendment, but it is likely that his utterances will not prevent the Democrats, if they give any attention to corpora: tion matters, from trying to amend it at the next session. Thieves Get $25,000 from Postoffice. St. Louis—The story how and where a registered mail package con- taining $25,000 was stolen more than a year ago, has been revealed here. ‘The theft has been made public after haying been suppressed for a year. More than six months ago, it is re- ported, the Postoffice Department abandoned all hope of recovering the money or finding out who stole it. The Third National bank of St. Louis registered at the main office Sept. 9, 1910, a package containing $25,000 in currency, addressed to a Galveston banking house. The package was sent from the main office to the annex sta- tion at the union station, where it was receipted for by two clerks. The pack- age disappeared at or from the annex station. The inspectors were never able to find when it left the station or who handled it after it was re- ceipted for. Postoffice inspectors said any of the twenty-three clerks at the annex station could have taken the money. Among the clerks are an ex- convict and a man discharged from a street railway company for taking money. No arrests were ever made. Wholesale Murder Suspected. New Orleans.—In the arrest here of Annie Crawford on the charge of poisoning her younger sister, Elise, a pretty stenographer, the police took their first step in an effort to clear up the mystery of several deaths in the family, Three other members of the Crawford family have died under mysterious circumstances within the last fifteen months and Annie Craw- ford is said to have been the benefict- ary named in the insurance policies on the life of each, Miss Crawford, according to police officials admitted to the district attorney that she gave her sister Elise morphine, but did it by mistake, as she intended to give her calomel and soda; that she stole the morphine from the Presbyterlan hospital. Explosion Kills Four. Guadalajara, Mex.—A terrific explo- sion of rockets and bombs in a crowd: ed church here resulted in four dead and fifteen injured. Eralaht Rate Increased. Chicago—Managers of transconth nental railroads have announced a general increase in all class freight rates from Eastern points to the Pa- cific coast, in line with plans formu- Jate dat the time of the hearing by the Interstate Commerce Commission of the inter-mountain rate cases.

PUTS AN END TO HARD TACK New Army Ration in Vogue That Will Prove an Actual Luxury to Soldiers. The days for hard tack as an army ration are over, the army officials in Washington tell us. The dry bread terror is at an end and a new form of ration hes come into vogue that will prove an actual luxury to the soldiers. It is a new order in the line of bread baking and its best qualities are that it fs lasting, nourishing and pleasantly palatable. Our soldiers will hence- forth be the best fed men in the country. The “war bread,” as the new ration 1s called by the soldiers, had its final test in the recent Texas manouyers and was in every way a complete suc- cess. The secret of its suczess 1s that It will retain all the nourisiment and palatability of fresh bread for weeks. ‘A loaf is generally about two feet long and slim in proportion and re- sembles a small club. It contains ‘about two pounds of nourishment ind ts sufficient to last a soldier 24 hours. To those who have endured the hard tack fare through strenuous cam- paigns the “war bread” is a decided relief. ‘The bread has a thick and strong «rust and in its making {s not allowed to rise a great deal. It is baked slowly and thoroughly dried out. 1his process of preparing makes it a sturdy little club of bread capable of withstanding any amount o” hard usage. It is readily prepared at the fleld bukerles and can be corded inte wagons like wood und hauled for ays without crushing or souring DR. WILEY AS FOOD EXPERT Characteristics of the Man Whose Duty It Is to Protect the Peo- ple'’s Health. Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chemistry of the depart: ment of agriculture and the pure food expert of the government, is one of the best known and most interesting characters in public life in Washing- ton. He 1s a six-footer with a smooth- shaven face that is always illumined by a genial smile. His head is bald, showing that however learned he may be in drugs, he has not yet found a drug that will cause hair to grow on ‘a bald pate. There are many earnest workers in the government service, but none of them exceed Dr. Wiley in enthusiasm and in solicitude for the food of the people.

Wiley. tention was his organization of the “poison squad” some years ago to test the effect of preservatives in foods. The question had been debated at great length whether salicylic acid and other drugs used as preservatives for meats and canned goods were really deleterious, Dr. Wiley holding that they were injurious in some de- gree and the producers of the foods denying it. In order to make a practical test of the question Dr. Wiley organized his poison squad, composed of about a dozen young men, most of whom were employes of the department of agri- culture or were students at college, and all of them in normal health. They were to have free board if they would agree to live in quarters assigned them by the doctor, eat or drink noth- ing except what was provided for {hem under the doctor's orders and keep the hours prescribed. ‘The experiments were carried through and the results were utilized by Dr. Wiley, though the practical facts demonstrated were rather lost sight of in the novelty of the tests. EINSTEIN, DOGS’ FOE, DEAD The Famous Washington Poundmas: ter Killed 200,000 Canines in Thirty-eight Years. Samuel Enxnstein, poundmaster in Washington, is dead. During the past 38 years, it is estimated he caught and put to death 200,000 doge. When he was appointed official dog-catcher of the national capital in 1874 he im- pounded almost as many stray horses, goats, geese and cows as dogs. He and his four assistants were set upon often by the owners of the live stock which had been allowed to stray from pack yard pastures and frolic about the city parks. ‘His annual catch was about 5,000 a year.

Feathers for Fall 7 BLUE AND RED FOR AUTUMN SURE TO PLEASE THE BRIDE WHAT may be described as "craggy" effects (for lack of a more graceful name) are prominent in the world of fancy feathers and are in demand this fall. Feathers in all sorts of ornaments and trimmings and many all-feather hats are shown by the best importers, representing much patient hand-work, and marvelous color combinations, on the part of those who make them. Nature seems to have delighted in making feathers wonderfully beautiful. They are as wonderful as the flowers, and their beauty is almost indestructible. The markings, mottlings and set figures which we discover in quills or other single feathers, are fairly awe inspiring, their inimitable colors and sheen, the gradations in size of the markings, the iridescent splendor, which constantly changes as the light strikes them at varying angles, cannot be imitated. These are the work of great and mighty nature, and beautiful beyond compare. It is no wonder that mankind, especially womankind, chooses them as a decoration for the head. And they are about to pass beyond the realm of millinery and become a decoration for the coifure—at least this is the rumor floating about. Extremely Bright Colors to Be Prom- inent in All the Before-Winter Fabrics. Navy blue and scarlet are appear- ing prominently in the autumn en- semble of sartorial effects. They are the old army colors, deep navy blue and bright red, and are striking as well as youthful. Blue serge or rough tweed traveling and motor coats have hood collars of scarlet broadcloth, and blue serge suits show dashes of the scarlet in their trimming. With these semi-military suits, many of which have smart touches of black braid, are worn the broad som- brero hats heralding the approach of autumn. White is extremely good in a hat of this kind, bent into a be- coming shape and trimmed simply with a soft scarf, a band or a mili- tary ornament. Russian blouses and Norfolk jackets are made to be worn with or without an underwaist. With a flannel or medium-weight waist they could be worn far into the autumn, or even be made to serve as jackets. For Silk Embroideries. There are some things not of common knowledge by far that the embroiderer in silk will be very glad to learn. One of these is the use of an aluminum thimble in place of the silver or gold one of which you might be the proud possessor. The steel or the silver of gold thimbles are worked into shape, and this causes the silk to catch on them to the annoyance of the crocheter. Now the everywhere apparent and little used aluminum thimble is pressed into shape and therefore has no metal projections, which though infinitesimal are still large enough to haggle and harass the silk. For the same reason use a larger needle. The silk will pass through the cloth easier. For Twisted Thread. The woman who sews is very often annoyed by having the thread twist into knots, especially if she is using a long thread. Waxing the thread by running it over a bit of beeswax is the proper way to avoid this trouble; but wax sometimes discolors the thread slightly and is not always desirable on that account. For either silk or cotton thread you can use, the same as wax, a small piece of pure white soap that is perfectly dry. This makes the thread slip through the material very easily and absolutely prevents twisted knots. The all-feather turbans and hats are difficult to make, and exquisite; they are therefore expensive. There are many beautiful feathers and feather ornaments, however, within the reach of everyone. Good, fancy feathers do not go out of style. Those in natural colorings are nature's paintings, and people with an eye for beauty will always appreciate them. In dealing with ostrich feathers, men have become so expert in dyeing and manipulating that they have produced them in all lovely colors and shades and in many intricate combinations of color. A great variety of what is termed "fancy ostrich" is now a permanent feather among millinery trimmings. Some feathers, like the graceful bird of paradise, are most beautiful in the natural coloring, and, after this, white is the best choice for them. The natural feather of the peacock is incomparably splendid. This feather, bleached to white, retains shadowy markings, and looks like the delicate ghost of a feather. One sees the white peacock so rarely that it is for all time unforgettable. The liking for feathers is commend able, an indication of good taste. JULIA BOTTOM! EX. Dainty Piece of Underwear, Made by Friend, Makes a Most Acceptable Present. If your best friend is to be married and you know that she will receive quantities of silver and cut glass, why not give her some handsome and dainty piece of underwear that she cannot duplicate in the shops? A petticoat, for instance, made of fine cambric and net, with lace and ribbon trimming, makes a particularly acceptable gift. Make the foundation of cambric cut over a seven gored pattern, fitting the hips closely and closing with a habit back. The length should be three inches from the floor, or exactly to the ankles. Finish the cambric foundation with a ruffle of net edged with lace. Make three wide Spanish ruffles of net trimmed with lace insertion and edged with good, strong lace, and put these on the foundation one above the other, joining the top one with a two inch band of lace beading, and insert a piece of soft ribbon through this, ending with a bow at the left side. These lace petticoats are much smarter to wear with evening gowns than silk or satin and, being made of soft materials, cling as closely to the figure as the finest messaline. Even if the bride to be goes into society only occasionally, she will be delighted with a really elegant underskirt of this description.
