"EW YORK, SEPT. Is. - TRAY
" fHJ eled from Newport to New York one
TX day this week witha surprised carload
- of returning summer people. Most of
them came from the beautiful city by the
sea, somo from the Massachusetts resorts,
q few from the far off rocks and sands of
Bar Hsrbor. But all were on their way TO
Now York and all opened their eyes with
astonishment, for while they dreamed away
the golden months, lu!led by cricket and
locust, the world had moved.
This is what drew out their EXPLANATIONS:
It was a long and heavily laden express,
and Whenever it condescended to stop there
were always more and more vacationers
hurrying aboard. AS regularly then as the
shout of the lunch iend-"Ham sand
wiches, chicken sandwiches, PONCE cake,
ice cream, jelly roll" would come the call
of the conductor-"PaBsengers would re-
move all baggage from the seats, one place
to one person!'
And when he had spoken the conductor
would follow up his revolutionary words.
And wherever he found q woman who had
turned over the seat in front of her and
Allied il with tennis racquets and baskets Of
ferns and lunches of bright leaves he
would turn the seat back and beckon to the
nearest group standing and pick up the
impediments without so much az "By your
leave" And whenever he found a woman
who had sprend her baby down for a mar
with pillow, and blankets, and much nur-
sorry furniture, he would pause quietly and

and some only to the knees. A garment
which may be selected for description, be-
cause it wal bought, if not by, yet for Mrs.
Ogden Mills, was a cloth mantle like the
one shown in the illustration. A tobacco
brown diagonal, feoked with threads Of
blush green WAS the material with darker
brown velvet for trimmings and BLUSH
green satin for a lining. The COLLAR would
make a Medici shape if it were turned up,
but the woman who gives heed to her ways
does not 10y turn up q Medici collar. She
indefatigably turns it down.
Alono cloak more graceful in cut, and
also of more considerable weight to carry,
is pictured also. It stood ina little open
space under 4 window n about II there
was::a circle Of women. Now and then one
stepped forward to touch the quicksilver
gray ladies' cloth which was its fabric, or
cry. Under the short round cape was g
slightly longer one Of gray velvet and IN
der this was along v of gray silk set into
the waist front and edged with velvet like
the velvet of the sleeves. It was q sumptu-
Gus garment, close-ftting like 9 dress, and
plump, we'll set-up blondes whose faces in
dioate a certain satisfaction with themselves
and with the world, and to whom, when
they speak, sliRhter women with different

women's tidings for many years. The
straight skirt sweeping the floor behind
was Of q soft brown silk, and the blouse
bodice was of pale yellow; to wear these
would be to wear what many women are
putting on, but to wear the brown silk sus-
pepders that passed over the shoulders,
crossed in the back, and came down on
either side in front, splitting into two
straps to join the waistbelt would require a
certain sort Of corsage, for though here a
woman and there a woman takes to herself
these masculine appendages, yet there are
still many who turn their heads to look
after them with surprise.
Broad, shaded stripes filled the rooms:
There WAS a costume in rust brown and
pale green thrown upon a cream colored
background. There was another in gray.

color scheme most effective. Gray camels

EDIToE NATIONAL TRIBUNE: We have a
sore toe, too, rs well as Mcpherson County,
Kan. In 1856 the delinquent list Of Alexan-
dria City embraced over LOCO pieces Of prop
erty in 1850 Fairfax County, Va, published a
deIinGuent list Of over 200 pieces. But these
lists, which every County and city in the
United States has TO contend with, are not
good arguments for the Farmers Alliance or
any other organization to use in their attempt
to secure the passage Of SUbtreasuTy bill 4;
they simply 20 10 show that there is a damna-
BILE lack Of thrift on the part of the people, and.
together with a great many other debts and
mortgages. are due solely to two causes:
lst A failure to live within ones income.
ID. IaZiness.
We know of case wher, a father was taken
sick, and for over II years spent about 500 a
wear in medicine, etc. at his death leaving his
family heavily in debt They worked hard,
stiuted themselves, and five years after hisdeath
were free from debt One OF tho sons we know
worked on an average II hours day, year in
aud year out, all through the 20 years.
We merely mention this Is an extreme case
TO prove those two old rules that Where there
Is a will there is a way" and that God helps
them who helps themselves"
What we want in this country is not Sub
treasury, but sub-sOil blowing, which means
more elbow grease, coupled with genuine econ
omy. If Uncle Sam has any Of these two old
fashioned articles on hand, let him distribute
them around, and it will not be long before we
hear less of mortgages here and debts there.
We belong to the q. o. T., and rs a general
thing mind our own business and let other
people mind theirs; but we get tired of sitting
Still and listening to all this palayer about peo-
pic who cannot pay their debts. Let us stop
aping our neighbOrs live within our income,
90 to work and stop dragging our cares and
troubles up before the wOrld.-A. r., Alexan'
