Wealthy Americans Surround Jack Johnson's Camp
VOL. XX. Wealthy Americans Su Jack Jo
Paris, June 12.—Jack Johnson is using the same tactics in preparing for his fight with Frank Moran that he employed in Australia when he was getting into shape to fight Tommy Burus for the championship.
"Daddy" Vienne, promoter of the Johnson-Moran contest, called up Johnson's mansion the other morning, intending to speak to Johnson's valet. Instead of the valet it was Johnson who answered the telephone. Vienne was startled to hear Johnson's voice and asked him what he meant by being at home at 10 o'clock in the morning and wandering why he wasent on the road working out.
Johnson explained that he had already covered ten miles that morning. Instead of waiting until near noon to do his road work Johnson is out drilling when dawn breaks. He did the same thing in Australia and it worked well. By the time the average fighter rolls out of bed, Johnson has done half a day's work.
The big champion is still conducting his afternoon teas. At these sessions Johnson does some real boxing, shadow fighting, bag punching, tosses the medicine ball, skips the rope and does numerous other things, to the delight of fashionable men and women who pay money for the privilege of seeing him train.
It is noticeable that the majority of his followers are Americans. Many delight in the remark. "I knew him in Chicago Whether they did or not they willingly plank down a five spot, the price of admission. It is persistently rumored that Theodore Roosevelt will be among the spectators at the fight and many have evinced a desire to attend since they heard the quiet "tip" that will not down.
Johnson's present condition is a surprise to those who can judge. Several days' work has taken off several pounds of superfluous flesh. He has regained much of his speed and stamina, looks trained to the minute and his sparring shows little of a long period of idleness. All the talk and deduction about his being "all in" fails to make good. Experts agree that he is all there.
---
Moran, too, is hard at the grind. Far from the white lights and the glorious life of the world's playground, he has pitched his camp at Butry, an ideal spot on the River Olse, where, with several French boys, he has got Tom Kennedy and Willie Lewis keeping him company.
When the party arrived at Butry they could find nothing better than a back yard to work in, and the prospects were not particularly pleasant. It was no consolation to see Prince Murat's palatial country residence just opposite. But William Astor Chandler, one of the Americans interested in Moran, came along handsomely, had fitted up as fine a gymnasium as could be wished for, and Moran is now as happy as any sandboy.
ARMY OFFICER WOULD
Atlanta, Ga., June 12.—An order, said to have been issued by Colonel Willoughby Walke, commander of Fort Screven, prohibiting Afro-American passengers of the Central of Georgia Railway from detraining at Fort Screven at the depot will be tested out by the general counsel of the railroad with the war department.
The matter came to the attention of the Central officials June 8 when an Afro-American employee was sent from South End to Fort Screven to clean up the station. The sentinel on duty at the depot would not permit him to get off there. A report was made to Mr. W. H. Wright, superintendent of the Central, and was referred to the railroad's counsel. It will be taken up with the commander and the war department.
The railroad officials contend that the order is of great inconvenience to its Afro-American passengers to board the trains or to get off. And under the order they are not permitted to use the depot. The property on which the station is situated belongs to the railroad. The Central has a right of way of 90 feet—50 feet on one side of the center of the tracks and 40 feet on the other, it is said by the officials. The commanding officer therefore has no authority to prohibit passengers from using the depot, it is said.

THE NEGRO AND OPPORTUNITY
We were in conversation with a bright young fellow, the other day, a former pupil of ours, who has a wonderful talent for mathematics and the sciences, and who has an insatiate ambition to become an Electrical Engineer. He has had one year in one of the leading Scientific Colleges of the country, but being out of funds he was forced to stop to get enough money to continue his course. During the months out of College he has traveled much and has observed conditions in nearly every section of this country, and so when we asked him cheerily if he expected to resume his studies the coming Fall he replied, "that depends, I have been wondering if it is worth while for me to spend four years of hard work and some thousands of dollars in acquiring a profession which I shall not be able to use. It is true that each year Cornell places many of its graduates in positions varying from $1,000 to $2,000 a year, but could it so place me? I may graduate with honors, may have unusual merit, but no distinction, no achievement in college could place me over hundreds of white men in a large technical business. However anxious my college and my friends may be to place me. Negro prejudice stands with sword unsheathed guarding the entrance to the higher heights of human endeavor. Would it pay me to take this course, and then for the rest of my life work as waiter in a hotel or serve as pullman porter"?
Well, now that depends. We feel that this young man is very like "the one-thing thou lackest" young man of scriptural fame. His moral courage is not of sufficient voltage to spark his motor. His machine runs well on the level but it can't take the hills, his motor goes dead. Then again, he has a wrong view point. He is taking his profession for what he will make out of it. He has the cart before the horse. He should take his profession for what it will make out of him. Again, he is living in the future. That is not his, that is God's. What has he to do with the future? How does he know what different conditions may obtain in even four years? His is only the now. Let him use the present, every bit of it, the future will take care of itself.
Suppose there were a hundred or even fifty young Negroes graduating from such technical courses? Do you think the goddess of Negro prejudice could keep her sword whole long? This young man has listened to the song sirene his transformation is well nigh complete
Oh, that we could make our
young men feel that opportunity awaits the Negro as it does every man, but it awaits the prepared Negro. None other need apply.— The Piedmont Advocate, Salisbury N. C.
(Nashville Globe)
Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock Mrs. Ella Sheppard Moore breathed her last at Hubbard Hospital after a short illness. She was one of the original jubilee singers who made a world-wide reputation singing to raise funds for the establishment of Fisk University. The death of Mrs. Moore leaves only five of the original troupe, Mrs. Georgia Minor Taylor, of this city having died June, 1913, just one year and 3 days before Mrs. Moore passed away. The members who survive are Mrs. Mabel Imes, Cleveland, Ohio; Mrs Maggie Porter, Detroit, Mich.; Mrs. M. E. Crump, Chicago, Ill.; Thomas Rutling, Leeds, Dngland, and Clinton Alexander, Chattanooga, Tenn.
A striking coincident relative to the death of Mrs. Moore and Mrs. Taylor is that both occured on the eve of the Fisk Commencement. Of Mrs. Moore it can truly be said that she fell in active service of her people. Hers has been a life of service, and while she spent several years at home after her marriage to Rev. S Moore in 1892, caring for her mother, she never lost sight of the interests of Fisk University and the jubilee music. These two things were the joy of her life. She loved Fisk and she loved the pantation songs because she knew what these songs did for her people. In the fall of 1912, after the death of her mother, Mrs. Moore made an extensive trip through the East and South. In the East she spoke and sang at Buffalo, N. Y., where she delivered an address on "Before Emancipation," which was published by the American Missionary Association. She also visited such schools as Atlanta University, Tuskegee, Emersion Institute at Mobile, Straight University, New Orleans, and Talladega College, where she sang and taught the beauty of the jubilee songs. She chaperoned the young women student delegates of Fisk University to the Christian Student Convention recently held at Atlanta, Ga. She was the commencement speaker at Trinity School, Athens, Ala., June 3, and while there sang "In Bright Mansions Above." She returned home sickand the end soon came. She will be best remembered in her singing of "Swing Low, Sweet Charlet," at the close of the great jubilee concert at Ryman Auditorium a year ago.

Honolulu, June 3. Twelve soldiers of the 25th United States Infantry were sentenced yesterday to 10 years' imprisonment in the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kau. They were courtmartialed and found guilty of "conspiring to run amuck" in Honolulu among civilians and white soldiers.umbia University held June 3, 1914. They were the only representatives of the race in a class numbering 2,000. Those receiving the degree of Master of Arts, were Clayton F. A. French, A. B., L. B., L. M.; Byron Armstrong, A. B.; Samuel E. Rose; A. B., B. D., and E. R. Bell. Ralph A. Young.
Washington, June 1, 1914 John L. Morris, secretary of the treasury of Liberia, and Ernest Lyon, consul general at Baltimore for the African republic, conferred today with President Wilson over the interpetation of the agreement by which the State Department sanctioned a loan of $1,700,000 in 1912 and approved the appointment of Reed Paige Clark as receiver of customs. Kuhn, Loeb & Co. made the loan. Morris and Lyon told the president the receiver has assumed such broad powers as to practically make him a dictator.
Philadelphia, Pa, June 3. When William Dwyer, a Negro living on Cabot street displayed his patriotism by unfurling an American flag at his home on Memorial Day. two white men, David Keith and Frank McShane, passing by, questioned his right to do so. When Dwyer asserted his right as a descendant of the race freed by the results of the war between the states to honor the stars and stripes the two white men beat him severely, stabbing him in the head. He was wounded between the eyes. The white men were locked up without bail while Dwyer was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital.
The erection of a $75,000 theatre will be started in a few days. Wm. H. Daly, who for a number of years has been running a moving picture and vaudeville house at 936 Pennsylvania, is the man behind the venture. Recently Daly was forced from that place by a Jew, who ran a moving picture parlor in the same vicinity, securing the lease over his head. He has secured property valued at $21,000 for the venture. The theatre will front on 1008 Pennsylvania avenue and will be L shaped, running into Greenwillow street. It will seat 1,500 persons and have accommodations for the largest shows on the road.—New York Age.

umbia University held June 3, 1914. They were the only representatives of the race in a class numbering 2,000. Those receiving the degree of Master of Arts, were Clayton F. A. French, A. B., L. B., L. M.; Byron Armstrong, A. B.; Samuel E. Rose; A. B, B. D., and E. R. Bell. Ralph A. Young, A B., received the degree of M. D. and Willis N. Huggins, Ph. B., was given the degree of B. S., and a "Higher Diploma" in teaching. Mr. Higgins has been appointed head of the department of history and education at Philander Smith College, Little Rock, Ark., and will take up his duties in the fall.
Chicago, June 13.—University high school of Chicago today won the thirteenth annual interscholastic games at the University of Chicago, defeating a field of 100 schools from seventeen states. The local school won because of the superiority of its spinters, who scored 14 of the 2723 points won. Sam Butler, the fast little Negro from Hutchinson, Kas., was the sensation of the meet. The 141.6 points credited his school were made by him, with the exception of the fraction. He won the 100-yard dash, the broad jump and was second in the 220 spint. His performances made him the individual point winner. The sixth of a point was made by his only team mate, who shared last place in the vault with five others.
Portland, Me., June 3, 1914.—The steamship Liberia, on which "Chief Sam" Atkins proposes to take a colony of Negroes from this port and Galveston to saltpond, on the Gold Coast of Africa, left today for Norfolk, Va., where a quantity of Bunker coal will be taken aboard, after which the steamship is to proceed to Galveston. One hundred men and women are waiting at Galveston to join the "back home" movement. The Liberia, formerly the Curityba, is in command of Capt. L. C McKenzie of the Kingdom Yacht club, a member of the Holy Ghost and Us Society. Several members of that society are among the crew, a majority of whom are white men. The steamship has been equipped with wireless apparatus and repaired and fitted for the expedition since arriving from New York on March 9. It was stated that a United States inspector, who investigated the affairs of Sam and the Akim Trading Company a few days ago, had found no cause for action against them.

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS
Hampton institute is an undenominational school for the training of teachers and leaders in agriculture, the trades and community work. Dr. George P. Phenix, vice-principal of Hampton institute, has said: "Moral qualities, which in the aggregate make strong character as well as economic efficiency, are developed through the combination of industrial work by day and academic work by night, as they could not be by either alone, and longer hours are made possible in the trade, agricultural and domestic science departments.
"Every student in the trade school has one hour of study early in the morning, eight hours of work in the trade school, and two hours of academic work in the evening period. This makes 11 hours a day, outside of which he must get time for meals, the care of his room, religious services and recreation. Yet the students gain in health and skill, in scholarship and in character." To ambitious negro and Indian students, the following courses are offered: Academic-normal, covering
THE FASHION WORKSHOP
Students Learn Art of Dressmaking. four years of work for those who are preparing to become teachers; an agricultural course of four years; and a trade course of four years in any one of thirteen trades, including building industries as well as such indoor trades as tailoring and printing. In the agricultural courses the Hampton school has the opportunity of learning the best modern practise in field, garden, orchard, greenhouse, horse barn, dairy and poultry houses. Hampton sends out "agricultural missionaries." Mere bigness has never been a goal at Hampton. Every department has grown in natural response to the pressing needs of the races receiving training. Today, between 1,200 and 1,300 students, including some 40 Indians, are enrolled.
The industrial accident insurance commission of California has published a decision that it is illegal to reduce wages to meet the cost of insurance against the compensation risk on employes.
Plans for an orphan asylum to accommodate 400 negro children and to be erected adjoining the estate of August Belmont at North Babylon, L. I., are being discussed. Mr. Belmont also has a big place at Hempstead, L. I. The promoters of the orphan asylum are said to be negotiating for the purchase of the Edwards farm of 100 acres owned by the receivers of the Dean Alvord company. The principal feature of this farm is an extensive nursery farm. There are several buildings on the tract and these, it is expected, will be remodeled for the use of the negro orphans.
The general assembly of the Presbyterian church in the United States endorsed the work of the Anti-Saloon league, the National Temperance union and the Woman's Christian Temperance union. According to the report of Rev. Mr. McCleland, $247,000 was expended last year by the freedman's board, an increase of $34,000 over the preceding year. The money was spent for evangelistic and educational work in the four negro Presbyterian synods in the South in which 45 new schools were erected.
A full report of the sixth annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, held in Baltimore a few weeks ago, appears in the Crisis, the magazine published by the association. The meeting was addressed by many prominent friends of the colored people, and disclosed interesting facts and figures about the recent progress of the race.

Farming offers an inducement to Missouri negroes unsurpassed by any other calling and solves the problem of their future by giving them opportunities and advantages which no other vocation holds out, declares Commissioner John T. Fitzpatrick in a bureau of labor statistics bulletin.
The negro population of Missouri is, 157,452 men, women and children, with 43,960 living in St. Louis, 23,566 in Kansas City, 4,249 in St. Joseph, 1,995 in Springfield, 801 in Joplin, 1,871 in Sedalia, 1,846 in Hannibal and the others scattered over the state, including the few that now own farms and others engaged in husbandry.
Out of the 280,000 farms in Missouri approximately 3,753 are owned by negroes. They range in size from 3 to 260 acres and are worth, land, buildings, live stock, and everything else on them, $27,768,750, using the average value of a Missouri farm $7,405 as the basis for computation.
The farm of the average Missouri negro farmer, just like that of his white brother, the bulletin says, is well kept and well stocked, and is very productive, growing wheat, corn, oats, grasses, watermelons, strawberries, peaches, apples and all other food necessities. Negroes raise poultry for the market, sell eggs, milk and butter, have beehives and plenty of honey, produce sugar cane which, in fall, they boil out for sorghum molasses. Their daily menu is made of the best things they produce, being far superior to that of the average city negro, who half the time is out of work and has no money to buy food.
The life of the negro farmers is full of comforts and joy. In winter most of them are well housed, warm, snug and well fed. Free fuel wood furnished by the timbered lands in and around their farms does away with coal bills. Every Sunday there is chicken, sweet potatoes, honey, dumplings, apples, nuts and other dainties, with strawberries or watermelon in summer and turkey or duck and mince or pumpkin pie in winter. Fresh eggs and hickory smoked sugar cured ham is an ordinary breakfast. Nearly every negro farmer of Missouri has a bank account, and his profits allow him to take a vacation in St. Louis, Kansas City, or some other metropolis once or twice a year. He owns three or four suits of clothes, with shoes and hats to match.
A superintendent's report for the Washington's colored schools contains the following suggestive paragraph: "No other school population can present greater need for, not a riper field for, this early training. Almost helplessly weighted with centuries of unfavorable conditions in the past, and with present environment largely inimical to proper moral and intellectual growth, many of the homes are not fitted t ogive to these tender years that care and training which insure bent to noble and useful manhood and womanhood. There is much due to private and society effort to supply this need, and it did much in directing the attention of congress to this great need and toward securing the public provision made. This public provision, though small, is large in significance, in the hope of larger provision it permits for the future."
War in the Balkans closed the Dardanelles, which stopped the export of Russian wheat, injuring Naples' macaroni trade.
Staining wood with beautiful colors while the tree is still standing is undergoing experiment. The dye is introduced at the root, and some trees take up three gallons of the coloring fluid in two days. If introduced when the sap is flowing most freely the results are quick and very marked. The colored tree is cut and used for interior or other woodwork and furniture.
The experimental work conducted by the Canadian government in regard to the manufacture of peat proved so successful that there are now two private concerns producing peat, one at Alfred, Ont., and the other at Farnham, Que. It is said that the peat manufactured by the Canadian government is satisfactory for grates and also good for cooking.

Longmont.—The strawberry crop
this year is the heaviest in the history
of the Longmont section. The berries
are unusually large and of extra fine
quality and flavor. It is hard to esti-
mate what the yield will be, but grow-
ers declare it will be at least a third
mere than iast year. The elements
have been favorable to the strawberry
grower. The heavy snows of the win-
ter and rains of spring caused the
ground to be in excellent condition,
and “jack frost” refrained from inter-
fering with the production of a boun-
tiful yield. A small army will be giv-
en employment the next three weeks

RACES.
Today is Derby Day, and all lovers of the turf should endeavor to go early so as to secure a good position where they can have a commanding view from start to finish. From the patronage of the opening day to the present it can be clearly seen that the public is still mindful of the pleasure afforded them in witnessing the competition of the animals, and a further demonstration by the presence of a very large crowd today will impress President W. F. Hireen and his associate, Judge R. F. Leighton, as well as the other racing officials, that a bright and prospective fall meeting will reward them for their strenuous efforts in bringing about this summer event.
Having been an eye-witness to the events, we can with definiteness assert that to visit Overland Park is more than a passing recreation, and persons taking advantage of this good old sport are sure to be the beneficiaries of pleasure and enjoyment.
Everything that the management can do to cater to success is being engaged in, and with the usual fairness of Judge Brady in his decisions, and Mr. Ed. Tribe, starter, the meeting should be the thin end of the wedge for fall and other racing events.
Races rain or shine, so prepare for any kind of weather conditions and remember only one admission which entitles you to grand stand privileges. Through the liberality of the committee, ladies are admitted at half price.
A PHASE OF POLITICS
If there was ever a time in the history of a nation when revival and resurrection counted for anything it is the present, and the supporters and mainstays of the Grand Old Party will prove undoubtedly that her power and influence is restored.
With the series of controversies among the Democrats, with their nonfulfilment of party pledges, their wholesale action in trying to reform and remove some of the fundamentals of our constitution, the deviation from the old landmarks, the breaking down of the milestones along our country's journey, there can surely be but the inevitable result, which is graphically summed up in the expression, "a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand."
While we have, as far as individuals are concerned, a few Democrats that would do the right by the people of a nation irrespective of class, creed or color, yet, as is well known, they are powerless to perform effective service, as the overwhelming force on their side would necessarily neutralize, if not efface anything suggestive of advantageous help to a cause beneficial to us.
The Progressive element, in other words, the element that seems to be in favor of a new form of things, cannot expect at this time to measure up and bring any drastic reforms to bear under the guise of Progress for the nation—as right here in our state the desire for federal positions and office-holding stands out conspicuously as the slogan for a complete reversing of things. The Republican party has been charged with many things of otherwise than the best, but can you remember that those who shouted and are shouting are among the class of people who if they cannot rule will ruin?
The resurrection and the revival of true Republican spirit will show that the people of this country are not going to run any more risk in placing the reins of government in the hands of any party whose motto is the discarding or the elimination of a portion of its citizens to the advancement of the other, nor in the hands of a few trouble-makers who glory in the sentiment, "progressiveness of action," and who at heart are not only disturbers of the peace and good order of the nation but are trying to make the impossible possible. The wearer of the shoe experiences where it pinches.
Long live Republicanism! Progressivism, abide your time.

Prehistoric Man's Skeleton Discovered By C. von WIMPFEN, Berlin, Germany
Prehistoric Man's Skeleton Discovered By C. von WIMPFEN, Berlin, Germany
Dr. Hans Reck of the geological institute of Berlin university has discovered at Oldoway, in the north of German East Africa, a human skeleton which, for the anthropologist, seems to be of the first importance. He lectured upon the subject, and showed me the skull. He brought the skull home with him among his linen for greater safety, while the rest of the skeleton and the animal remains found near it are still on their way. The remains were found with mammoth fossils, of which one is a tooth 3.18 meters (10 feet 5 inches) long, and when these are compared with the fossils here it will be possible to determine the man's age:
At present all Doctor Reck can say is that the man is roughly 150,000 years old, and belongs to the diluvial period of Africa, which synchronizes with the ice period of northern Europe.
It is a wonderful skull and wonderfully preserved. It is long and narrow with an unmistakably negroid jaw, and the back of the head finely developed and deep. The ribs and breast are akin to those of an ape, but the skull is unmistakably human. There are indications that the muscles of the neck were enormously strong, and that the man did not walk quite upright. His thirty-six teeth are complete and beautifully preserved. There are marks upon them as if they had been filed. The formation of the eye-sockets and the bridge of the nose is akin to that of the primitive African bushman.
The man was found lying on his back with his head turned over to the right, his hands before his face, and his legs drawn up in a crouching position. Dr. Reck is almost certain that the position is not one of burial. On the spot where the man was found there was once a lake, and it is conjectured that the man was drowned. The body was gradually covered with deposits of sand and chalk, which in the course of genturies turned into the volcanic tufa in which the skeleton was found.
Dr. Reck described the excavation in his lecture. He turned up five strata. In the bottom stratum were rhinoceros bones; in the second the man, elephant bones and the skull of a hippopotamus; in the third antelope bones; in the fourth tortoise shells; and in the fifth and upper stratum the dry fauna of the steppes.
Awful Cost of Set of Woman's Furs
By G. D. PATTERSON, Chicago

Awful Cost of Set of Woman's Furs By G. D. PATTERSON, Chicago
In a secluded oen in the great north woods Mrs. Silver Fox has established her home until her five promising youngsters shall have reached an age at which they can take up life in the woods on their own account. It is night, and she sets out on the search for food, the hardest problem of the forest folk. An hour—two hours—she continues her patient, tireless quest, calling into play all the resources of her forest craft to find something that shall satisfy the sturdy little appetites at home.
At last the wind brings to her the scent of meat and she swiftly follows the trail to a pile of underbrush up a bypath. But suddenly she stops, for she recognizes a danger signal—the scent of that dangerous creature, man. Her instinct tells her to run for her life, but her mother heart tells her that her babies must have food or perish. So she goes on toward the tempting meat and suddenly there is a sharp click and she finds herself on the ground, helpless. The merciless jaws of a steel trap have closed on one of her forepaws with all the power of their heavy springs.
The fear that any wild creature feels when it finds itself a prisoner, the knowledge of her helplessness should any forest foe appear, the memory of the little ones who must die without her care and protection—all these promptings urge her to escape, but every movement only brings added torture, as the pressure of the trap jaws forces the shattered bones into the tender flesh.
There is no water within reach to cool the fever that her injuries have caused, and the strong, young body, buoyant with health and vitality when the hidden foe struck her down, will not release the helpless sufferer.
It is not, perhaps until the end of the third day—for trappers are not immune from illness and cannot always make their rounds promptly—that a merciful bullet closes the tragedy.
No, the cost of a set of furs is very much more than appears on the price ticket. Are they really worth their cost?
Owing to the fact that the work of the modern world is becoming more and more a matter of nervous energy, of skill and intelligence and less a matter of mere brute force, the reduction in hours
Reduction in Working Hours Is Necessity
By JOHN MITCHELL, Washington, D.C.
Owing to the fact that the work of the modern world is becoming more and more a matter of nervous energy, of skill and intelligence and less a matter of mere brute force, the reduction in hours is not only of advantage but of absolute necessity. Even when work is simply and purely physical it is not economical to work long hours, but a shorter day of labor is imperative where work is intense, or when intelligence, ingenuity and inventiveness are required.
You cannot get more out of a man than is in him, and if you take too much one day there will be just so much less to obtain on succeeding days.
The most curious feature about the history of the reduction of hours is that in almost all cases the trade unions have been obliged to force employers, strongly against their will, to grant reductions which have ultimately proved to their advantage.
The English mill owners in the beginning and middle of the nineteenth century claimed that they would be ruined if hours were reduced, and this complaint is repeated whenever an attempt is made to decrease the hours of labor.
Wherever the reduction has been made, however, the result has been a decided benefit not only to the workman but to his employer.
"Fashion Censors" to Modify Woman's Garments

"Fashion Censors" to Modify Woman's Garments
By L. K. BIXBY, Indianapolis, Ind.
Why not appoint a board of "fashion censors" to modify and do away with some of the present fashions in women's garments? As it is necessary for a great many people to buy their clothes ready made, they are at the mercy of Dame Fashion, and must take what they can get.
A great deal is said about economizing, but if one tries to wear a garment a second season one finds it looks like anything but what is being worn. Then, if a person does not want to be considered old-fashioned it becomes necessary to buy new garments, although the old ones are perfectly whole. While this may make very little difference to the wealthy woman, it is a serious question for the working girl.
The freakish, unbecoming and uncomfortable styles which have been prevalent for the last three years should be modified and something pretty and becoming shown to the public.

The business sessions were convened at the A. M. E. church, sixth South street on Tuesday, the 9th inst. and continued for three days, in which the social element came in for a very fair share. Discussions relating to the Negro race in this country were engaged in and much profitable information given as to how to combat with the growing issues of the day in respect to our race.

The music for the occasion was furnished by a Salt Lake quartet, Pueblo Choral club, and our representative, Mdme, Lillian Hawkins Jones, who served a musical treat to the folks, who were loud in their praises of her.

After the close of the sessions various places of interest were visited by the delegates, chief of which was the Mormon Tabernacle and the opportunity of hearing one of the summer organ recitals was afforded them. Bravo! for the women's club. Keep up your good work and continue to cater to the uplift of humanity is our wish.

Chopping meat to make it tender permits quick and economical cooking. In broiling chopped meat it is well to remember that there is no reason why it should not be cooked like the best and most expensive tenderloin. The broiler should be even more carefully greased than for a whole steak. This makes it possible to form the balls or cakes of chopped meat with very little pressure without running the risk of having them pulled to pieces by adhering to the wires of the broiler. They should be heated on both sides even more quickly than the steak, because the chopping has provided more ways of escape for the juice, and their openings should be sealed as soon as possible. The interior should be cooked to the taste of the family, just as the steak is.
Chopped raw meat of almost any kind can be very quickly made into a savory dish by cooking it with water or with water and milk for a short time, then thickening with butter and flour, and adding different seasonings. Such a dish may be made to go further by serving it on toast or with a border of rice, or in some similar way.
Cannelon of beef is prepared by making chopped beef into a roll and baking it wrapped in a buttered paper, a method designed to keep in the steam and so insure a moist, tender dish. The paper must be removed before serving. The roll should be basted occasionally with butter and water or drippings and water. In preparing the roll an egg may be added for each pound and a half of meat, and chopped parsley, onion juice, lemon peel or finely chopped green peppers make good seasoning. A thickened gravy may be made from the drippings, the liquid used being either water or tomato juice. Strips of pork laid on the roll may be substituted for the buttered paper and basting.
Careful cooking aids in developing the natural flavor of some of the cheaper cuts, and browning also brings out flavors agreeable to most palates. Except in the case of roasts, browning for flavor is usually accomplished by heating the meat in a frying pan in fat which has been tried out of pork or in suet or butter. Care should be taken that the fat is not scorched, as the chief reason for the bad opinion in which fried food is held by many is that it almost always means eating burned fat. Fat in itself is a very valuable food, but when burned it is most unpleasant and indigestible.
Fried salt pork with salt codfish, or "salt fish dinner," owes its savioriness to the flavor of browned fat or meat: Half pound salt pork, one pound codfish, two cups of milk (skim milk will do), four tablespoonfuls flour, a speck of salt.
Cut the codfish into strips, soak in lukewarm water and then cook in water until tender but do not allow the water to come to the boiling point except for a very short time as prolonged boiling may make it tough. Cut the pork into one-fourth inch slices and cut several gashes in each piece. Fry very slowly until golden brown and remove, pouring off the fat. Out of four tablespoonfuls of fat, the flour, and the milk make a white sauce. Dish up the codfish with pieces of pork around it and serve with boiled potatoes and beets. Some persons serve the pork, and the fat from it, in a gravy boat so it can be added as relished.
Vegetables of distinctive flavor, such as onions, carrots or celery; savory herbs, such as parsley, sage, bay leaf or thyme; materials such as vinegar, pickles or currant jelly; spices such as pepper, cloves, or "curry" mixtures, and sharp or highly seasoned meat sauces are all types of flavoring materials which are useful in imparting flavor to meat and which may be used in a variety of ways. A few hints regarding the use of some of these materials may not be an issue:
Most of the stews, soups, braised meats, and pot roasts are very much improved if the flavoring vegetables which they contain, such as carrots, turnips, onions, celery, or green peppers, are fried in a little fat before being cooked with the meat. This need not complicate the preparation of the meat or increase the number of utensils used, for the meat itself is usually seared over in fat, and the vegetables can be cooked in the same fat before the browning of the meat. Cookbooks usually say that onion juice should be extracted by cutting an onion in two and rubbing the cut surface against a grater. Considering how hard it is to wash a grater, this method has its drawbacks. Small amounts of juice may be obtained in the following simpler way: Peel the onion and extract a few drops of juice by pressing one side with the dull edge of a knife.
It is easy to raise parsley by growing it in a pot in the kitchen window and thus to have it always on hand fresh, or the leaves may be kept for e long time if sealed up in a fruit jar
and stored in a cool place. Parsley, mint and celery tops may all be dried, rubbed into fine bits and kept in airtight jars. Recipes usually say to chop fresh parsley with a sharp knife on a board. But a board is a hard thing to wash and a plate serves the purpose quite as well.
A "bouquet" such as is often referred to in recipes may be made as follows: A sprig each of parsley, savory and thyme, one small leaf of sage and a bay leaf. This will flavor one gallon of soup when cooked in it for an hour and should not remain in it longer.
Chopped pickles are sometimes added to the gravity served with boiled mutton. They are cheaper than capers and serve somewhat the same purpose. Chopped pickles are also very commonly used in sauces for fish and in many others to give a distinctive flavor.
Curry powder, a mixture of spices which apparently originated in India, but which is now a common commercial product everywhere, is a favorite flavoring for veal, lamb or poultry. A small amount gives a good flavor. It is generally used to season the thick sauces with which meats are served or in which they are allowed to simmer. While the term "curry" is usually employed to describe a particular mixture of spices made up for the trade, it has another meaning. The words "curry" or "curried" are sometimes used to describe highly seasoned dishes of meats, eggs, or vegetables prepared by methods that have come from India or other parts of the East.
The art of preparing savory gravies and sauces is more important in connection with the serving of the cheaper meats than in connection with the cooking of the more expensive.
There are a few general principles underlying the making of all sauces or gravies, whether the liquid used is water, milk, stock, tomato juice, or some combination of these. For ordinary gravy two level tablespoonfuls of flour or one and a half tablespoonfuls of cornstarch or arrowroot is sufficient to thicken a cupful of liquid. This is true excepting when the flour is browned. In this case about one-half tablespoonful more should be allowed for browned flour does not thicken so well as unbrowned. The fat used may be butter or the drippings from the meat, the allowance being two tablespoonfuls to a cup of liquid.
The easiest way to mix the ingredients is to heat the fat, add the flour and cook until the mixture ceases to bubble, and then to add the liquid. This is a quick method and by using it there is little danger of getting a lumpy gravy. Many persons, however, think it is not a wholesome method and prefer the old fashioned one of thickening the gravy by means of flour mixed with a little cold water. The latter method is of course not practicable for brown gravies.
The good flavor of browned flour is often overlooked. If flour is cooked in fat until it is a dark brown color a distinctive and very agreeable flavor is obtained. This flavor combines very well with that of current jelly, and a little jelly added to a brown gravy is a great improvement. The flavor of this should not be combined with that of onions or other highly flavored vegetables. A recipe for mock venison which is made with brown sauce follows:
Cut cold mutton into thin slices and heat in a brown sauce made according to the following proportions: Two tablespoonfuls butter, two tablespoonfuls flour, one tablespoonful of bottled meat sauce (whichever is preferred), one tablespoonful red currant jelly, one cupful water or stock.
Brown the flour in the butter, add the water or stock slowly and keep stirring. Then add the jelly and meat sauce and let the mixture boil up well.
Good Advice to All Boys.
Governor Baldwin's advice to the Boy Scouts of New Haven, to the effect that they could do a very great service by helping to protect the historical monuments of the city, might well be extended to the scouts of all other Connecticut cities and to boys who are not scouts. In fact, there is no limit to which the advocacy of protection of public property might not be extended, particularly by thoughtful boys among their less thoughtful and sometimes malicious companions. Markings and cuttings upon bridges, municipal structures and state buildings are all species of vandalism and punishable as such. Boy Scouts are not the culprits. Their oaths and training would keep them from such practices. Their aid, therefore, in keeping others from perpetrating such deeds is to be desired both for present preservation and for the hope of a better future citizenship.—Hartford Times.

GETS BIG FOREST
Immense North Carolina Tract Purchased by Government.
National Forest Reservation Commission Has Approved the Purchase of Pisgah Forest From Estate of Late G. W. Vanderbilt.
Washington.—The national forest reservation commission has just approved the purchase of the Pisgah Forest from the estate of the late George W. Vanderbilt, at an average price of five dollars an acre. The tract consists of 86,700 acres and the total cost is therefore $433,500. The price paid is less than the average for other tracts already acquired although the Pisgah Forest has been developed by its former owner into one of the best forest properties in the country.
This is the second time that the commission has had the purchase of this tract under consideration. Once before, during Mr. Vanderbilt's lifetime, the question of its purchase was taken up, but the commission did not deem it advisable to purchase it at that time. The tract includes portions of Transylvania, Henderson, Buncombe, and Hayward counties, in North Carolina. It covers the entire eastern slope and portions of the northern and western slopes of the Pisgah range, one of the most prominent of the southern Appalachians. Its forests influence for the most part tributaries of the French Broad River which unites with the Holstein river at Knoxville, Tennessee, to form the Tennessee river.
Mrs. Vanderbilt offered the tract at a much lower figure than that at which it was held by her husband, and her letter to the secretary of agriculture, one of the members of the commission, gives her reasons for making the tender of the Pisgah forest to the government. Mrs. Vanderbilt's letter follows:
May 1, 1914.
The Honorable, the Secretary of Agriculture,
Washington, D. C.
Sir:
I now confront the question of what disposal I shall make of Pisgah Forest, which, under the terms of my late husband's will, has passed to me without qualification or condition. This letter constitutes my formal offer for the sale of Pisgah Forest to the government for national forest purposes. Should the government fail to acquire it, I must dispose of Pisgah Forest in some other way. I hope earnestly that, in view of the terms of my offer, no such contingency may arise.
Mr. Vanderbilt was the first of the large forest owners in America to adopt the practise of forestry. He has conserved Pisgah Forest from the time he bought it up to his death, a period of nearly twenty-five years, under the firm conviction that every forest owner owes it to those who follow him to hand down his forest property to them unimpaired by wasteful use. I keenly sympathize with his belief that the private ownership of forest land is a public trust, and I probably realize more keenly than any one else can do how firm was his resolve never to permit injury to the permanent value and usefulness of Pisgah Forest. I wish earnestly to make such disposition of Pisgah Forest as will maintain in the fullest and most permanent way its national value as an object lesson in forestry, as well as its wonderful beauty and charm; and I realize that its ownership by the Nation will alone make its preservation permanent and certain.
Accordingly I have decided to make as large a contribution as I can, in order to help bring this result about. I offer Pisgah Forest at a total price over two hundred thousand dollars below that on the basis of which negotiations were entered into with the government before my husband's death, my offer to the government of Pisgah Forest now being at a price of five dollars per acre.
I make this contribution towards the public ownership of Pisgah Forest with the earnest hope that in this way I may help to perpetuate my husband's pioneer: work in forest conservation, and to insure the protection and the use and enjoyment of Pisgah Forest as a national forest, by the American people for all time.
In the event that my offer is accepted, I shall be glad for the government to assume control of Pisgah Forest as soon as it may desire. In the same event, it would be a source of very keen gratification to me if the tract retained, as a national forest, the title of "Pisgah Forest," which my late husband gave it.
In accordance with Mrs. Vanderbilt's desire, the national forest reservation commission will retain the name of "Pisgah Forest;" in fact, the general area, in which this forest is located and in which other purchases may be made, is already designated as the "Pisgah Area." It is proposed also to make it a game refuge for the preservation of the fauna of the eastern mountains. It is particularly well suited to this purpose since it is already well stocked with game and fish, including deer, turkey, and pheasant; and in the streams rainbow trout and brook trout, with which they have been systematically stocked from year to year.
On approximately four-fifths of the area there is a timber contract which
provides for the moving of certain portions of the merchantable stand. It is already provided, however, that this removal shall be in accordance with the best forestry practises, so that there is not only no danger of forest destruction but provision is made for a natural restocking which should be an improvement on the present stand. The area contains improvements in the form of buildings, roads, and trails, which will greatly help in the administration of the forest by the government. Members of the commission look upon this as the best purchase which has yet been authorized, because the forest is in the finest possible condition and less than three-tenths of one per cent can be classed as burned-over land. The price too is lower than the average paid for all lands which have been acquired heretofore.
With this purchase, and with others just approved, the total area approved for purchase under the Weeks law in the eastern mountains is 1,007,000 acres. The officers of the commission are the secretaries of war, agriculture, and the interior. Senators Gallinger of New Hampshire and Smith of Maryland, and Congressmen Lee of Georgia and Hawley of Oregon.
NEW NET WEIGHT LAW.
The regulations for the carrying out of the so-called net weight law, which compels manufacturers to make a clear statement of the weight, volume or contents of their packages of food, were signed May 11 by the secretaries of the treasury, agriculture and commerce. These regulations apply to foods shipped in interstate commerce or sold in the District of Columbia or the territories. The regulations as signed become effective at once, although the law, passed March 3, 1913, as an amendment to the food and drugs act, defers the exacting of penalties for violations until September 3, 1914.
The regulations, in general, require that the manufacturer of foods shall plainly mark all packages, bottles or other containers holding more than two ounces avoidirdupos, or more than one fluid ounce, to show the net weight or volume of the contents. The measure must be stated in avoidirdupos pounds and ounces, United States gallons, quarts, pints or fluid ounces, United States standard bushels, halfbushels, pecks, quarts; pints or halfpints. The contents by a like method may be expressed in terms of metric weight or measure. The volume of liquids must be computed at 68 degrees Fahrenheit.
The quantity stated on the container must represent the actual quantity of food exclusive of wrappings and container.
In general, solids must be stated in terms of weight and liquids in terms of volume, except that where there is a definite trade custom otherwise any marking of the package in terms that are generally understood to express definite quantities will be permitted. The quantity of viscous or semi-solid food or of mixtures of solids and liquids may be stated either by weight or measure, but the statement must clearly indicate whether the quantity is expressed in terms of weight or measure.
"JOHNNY O'BRIEN."
A Washington mother recently noticed a quiet, plainly dressed little lad who came in occasionally to play with her two small sons. "Johnny O'Brien," as she understood his name to be, had asked his two little friends to come to his house, but their mother always forbade it, taking it for granted that his home was in some poor neighborhood—even poorer, perhaps, than her own.
One day, however, she came upon her seven-year-old strolling in forbidden territory.
"What are you doing here?" she asked, "and what are you eating?" "Cookies," he confessed. "You see, it's reception day at Johnny's, and we had to go in the back way. The cook gave us these."
"Reception day at Johnny's" she repeated, "why, who receives at Johnny's house?"
"His grandmother," nonchalantly, "and today his grandfather is there. Mother, they've got rooms you could put our whole house in, and the gas fixtures all sparkle like diamonds, and—"
"But who is his grandfather?"
"Only a big fat old man with a bald head and a hooked nose, but Johnny says he's sec—"
"O'Brien, O'Brien," she muttered, trying in true southern fashion to place the family.
"No, mother," rather wearily, "you always get it wrong. His name is Bryan, not O'Brien, and Johnny says his grandfather is secretary of state!"
Rooster Commits Suicide
This is the story of the pathetic finish of a rooster who refused to observe the Wisconsin eugenic statutes.
He was an imported brown fellow, a gamecock owned by Harvey Sonneman, and he now lies in a grave. This is the reason:
Mr. Gamecock was head of a flock of hens, but in the brood from which the hens were hatched were a couple of ducks, and the gamecock and the ducks became boon companions.
All winter they fed together, but in the spring the hens asserted their rights. In their jealousy, they pecked at the ducks, and the latter were so severely injured that it was necessary to kill them.
Then the rooster ended his life by wilful starvation.—Milwaukee Sentinel.

Justice Lamar and Frederick W. Lehmann, American delegates to the mediation conference, went to Buffalo and talked four hours with Rafael Zubaran and Luis Cabrera, personal representatives of General Carranza. The purpose was to find some way to bring the Constitutionalists in harmony with the scope of mediation. The mission was a failure.

A determined attempt was made by militant suffragettes to burn the ancient church of St. Margaret at Chipstead, fourteen miles southeast of London. Three distinct fires, fed by fire-lighters, composed of squares of felt, saturated with oil, were set by the "arson squad." The pews were smeared with tar and oil.
New chapters illustrating the horror of the Empress of Ireland disaster were added by Captain Kendall in his testimony before the inquiry board at Quebec, the most startling being his description of now a sheet of flame burst from the Empress after she was rammed, the prow of the collier Storstad evidently penetrating clear through to her boilers.

MAY SEIZE AND OPERATE MINES
PRESIDENT WILSON TO FORCE
NEW RELATIONS BETWEEN
CAPITAL AND LABOR.
AGITATION CAUSES STEP
ARBITRATION OF STRIKE IN COLO- RADO REPORTED TO BE FIRST MOVE IN THE PROGRAM.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.—It is stated that the plan adopted by former President Theodore Roosevelt to settle the Pennsylvania anthracite strike by military seizure of the mines has been adopted by President Wilson in the Colorado strike situation at the ernest solicitation of his advisers.
After giving both sides to the controversy one more chance to arbitrate, through five arbitrators—two to be selected by the mine owners, two by the miners and one by the President—the United States, if necessary, will seize the mines and operate them as a "military necessity."
In taking this step the President finally yields to his advisers, who have pointed out to him that the situation demands drastic treatment. Their argument probably would have been ineffective had it not been for the recent condition of disorder at Butte. This has brought home to the President as well as his advisers the fact that the time has come when a conclusive step must be taken to establish the relations of labor and capital on a safer, saner basis than appears to prevail at present. Recent developments, mainly the activity of red flag agitation, are responsible for the growth of this conviction.
Another way of putting it is that the administration sees the need of heading off the "inconsiderate rich" and the radical labor agitators from precipitating a condition of chaos which would work havoc in the industrial world for years to come, and the Colorado situation presents the logical opportunity for the application of the necessary preventive measures and the "psychological occasion" for making an example of the individual it is desired to reach.
SAYS DISOBEYED IN FOG.
Turtenes, in Charge of Storstad When It Hit Empress of Ireland, Denies Kendall's Story.
Quebec.—The captain and the first officer of the collier Storstad testified at the Empress of Ireland wreck inquiry and contradicted in many particulars the statements made on the stand by Captain Kendall of the lost liner. The first officer, Alfred Tuffenes, who was in command of the collier when the collision occurred, insisted that there was no explosion and no sheet of flame from the side of the Empress when she was struck, as Captain Kendall had declared.
The first officer admitted he had not obeyed instructions in failing to call his captain from below when the fog shut down just before the collision. It was the speed of the Empress, he explained, which caused the Storstad's bow to sink twelve feet into the side of the passenger vessel.

THIRD OF BEET CROP
Do You Know That-
GROWN IN U. S., RAISED BY COLORADO FARMERS.
Annual Tield in Centennial State Is Enough to Supply 5,550,000 People for One Year.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.—Colorado fields last year produced nearly one-third of the beet sugar refined in the United States, yielding enough to supply 5,500,000 people for a year, according to a report made public by the United States Department of Agriculture.
The COLORADO STATESMAN
Colorado factories produced 229,274 tons of sugar from 1,840,653 tons of beets. The total production of the nation was 733,401 tons of sugar. Colorado led all beet-sugar states, California ranking next, with production about three-fourths as great as Colorado's.
The 1913 production in the nation and in Colorado, too, was the greatest in the history of the industry. Beets were harvested from 168,410 acres in Colorado, the average yield being 10.93 tons to the acre. The average price to growers was $5.67 a ton, the average price to the acre being $61.97. The price was 29 cents a ton less than in 1912, but 12 cents a ton above the price in 1911.
IS PREPARED TO DO ALL KINDS OF
JOB PRINTING
Each ton of Colorado beets yielded
249 pounds of sugar in 1913, against
263 in 1912 and 261 in 1911.
The return per acre to the growers
of beets in 1913 was as follows, acc
cording to the government:
United States ..... $52.12
Colorado ..... 61.97
California ..... 54.11
Idaho ..... 49.40
Michigan ..... 52.48
Ohio ..... 41.87
Utah ..... 59.35
Wisconsin ..... 56.03
Other states ..... 52.69
Commercial, Fraternal, Church, Book and Stationery Jobs A SPECIALTY
Of the total domestic production of sugar in the United States in the past three years, 71 per cent was beet sugar and 29 per cent cane. This has no reference to production in the country's insular possessions.
Colorado ranked fifth among all the states in the country, June 1, in the condition of twenty-three crops reported upon by the United States Department of Agriculture.
The greatest gain made by any state in the union was in Kansas where the crop average was placed at 122.9 compared with the ten-year average. California, Mississippi and Nebraska were the three other states whose crop conditions exceeded Colorado's on June 1.
Ball and Concert Programs, Bill and Letter Heads, Calling Cards, Wedding Cards, Envelopes and Everything in the Printing Line Turned Out in the Neatest and Best Style Promptly on Short Notice.
The crops included in this report were winter wheat, apples, alfalfa, sugar beets, barley, hemp, pears, rye, peaches, raspberries, cantaloupe, spring wheat, lima beans, hay, oats, blackberries—all of which were 100 per cent—and above the ten-year average, pasture, onions, cabbage, watermelons, sugar cane, clover and cotton, all slightly under 100 per cent.
Government reports give an increase of almost $12,000,000 over 1913 for the 1914 hay, rye, barley, wheat and oat crop in Colorado. A 40 per cent increase is estimated for the state's corn and sugar beet crop.

Offer 112,000 Acres to Settlers.
Denver. About 112,000 acres of state land, which is now leased in large tracts near Pueblo, are to be offered settlers for cultivation in small tracts, according to announcement of Volney T. Hoggatt, register of the State Land Board. The land includes cattle pastures used by the Skinner brothers, the Thatcher, the Ord, the Tabor and the Leak ranches. Hoggatt says there is plenty of water for cultivation of the land in small tracts. He is making an investigation of all large tracts of leased land in the state.
Dry Land Sells at $30 an Acre.
Denver.—A quarter-section of dry farming land in Sedgwick county brought $30.50 an acre when sold at competitive bidding by the State Land Board. It is a record price for land of that character in eastern Colorado. A. E. Edwards of Sedgwick county was the purchaser of the 160 acres. The land board sold 4,600 acres, bringing approximately $53,800. Four acres at Edgewater brought $400 per acre plus $1,000 for improvements.

[Image of three women wearing elegant dresses with lace detailing.]
THREE very unusual and beautiful sashes, made of messaline ribbon, are pictured here. Considering the prominence of girdles and sashes and the great amount of attention given to the management of the waistline these will interest every woman who knows how much accessories add to the toilette. Quite a plain white dress of simple design, and even of ordinary material, is lifted into the sphere of elegance by the pretty ribbon garnitures designed by those who manipulate ribbons.
From five to eight or ten yards of ribbon are needed for any one of the sashes shown in the group pictured here.
In the first figure a new rosette is made by grouping seven short-looped bows together. The girdle about the waistline is plain and slightly crashed. The group of loops is finished with a long loop and two pointed ends. This

THE flowery and diaphanous hats pictured here have counterparts in equally flowery but more substantial headwear in Leghorn and hemp, and in similar airy creations of hair braid and Tuscan lace braid. Then, for the warmest weather, there are pure white hats, net and chiffon or lace. In the same coterie are some lingerie hats. But hats of black maline or lace and Leghorn appear to make the strongest appeal as the midsummer's loveliest creations.
These fragile-looking, but really quite durable pieces of millinery, are made of the filestim of materials, maline net, which has been waterproofed, and thereby has conquered its old enemy, the moisture in the air. Even rain does not cause it to wither and shrivel, as in days of old. It is to be hoped that flowers which do not collapse when the dews of evening fall or the sea breathes on them will bloom in millinery gardens before another spring rolls round. Many of them now are dyeed to withstand the sun, and sold as "fadeless."
The hats shown here of maline and lace, and those similar to them of hair or Tuscan braid, have the peculiarity of suiting themselves to either young or older women. But they appear to best advantage on the matron. When youth assumes the dignity of a black dress hat, big, picturesque shapes provide an element these smaller hats lack. But they are helped out this season by the masses of flowers that adorn them and by the youthful bridles of velvet ribbon that are brought from one side to the other, under the chin or under the hair.
sash can be worn with the bow or rosette at the back.
The design showing roses of the ribbon as a finish in the ends at the back, has fringed ends that are very new and pretty. The ends are raveled out to the depth of eight or ten inches. The ends are slipped through small silk-covered rings, making a tassel at the end with about three inches of the raveled silk above the rings.
The sash with long ends, of superposed points and double standing loops, takes an extravagant amount of ribbon and is prettier with two instead of four hanging ends.
Besides adding the bright luster of silk to the costume the ribbon ends, finished as pictured in these sashes, provide a weight for light gowns. Narrower ribbons have been effectively used for weighting the fragile fabrics of which light summer gowns are made.
THE FASHION WEEKLY
The chin-strap is a bit of frivolity one should try out before wearing. For some faces it is quite impossible, and for others is it is a charm. Both it and the velvet bridle under the hait are shown in the picture. The latter is featured on hats designed for young wearers. There is any number of shapes in which these lace and net hats are developed. The fabric is shirred to a frame of fine wire and they require the careful work and experience of a professional milliner. Such hats are pretty with afternoon costumes in any color or white, and if one is to have but one hat for dress, no other style is more commendable.
Colored Damask in Vogue.
Damask cloth in pale colors with napkins to correspond are again coming into vogue for the luncheon table, and while colored linen is impossible for the dinner table, it is very attractive for less formal occasions and pretty sets in pale yellow, green, blue or pink are appearing in the dower chests of brides-to-be.
Colored embroideries as well as colored damasks are being exploited for table use in the most up-to-date outfits and for these Japanese designs are particularly appropriate.
Silk and Bead Tassels.
Tassels are made of silk and beads, and they are used in many ways. They catch up the draperies of skirts and finish sash ends; small tassels ornament the ends of the necklaces of beads and appear on jackets and frocks in lieu of buttons.
