detail.
Lay the front of your basque pattern
ON the upper straight edge of the cloth
SO that the point a shall fall Just II
inches from the point. aud so that the
point Is shall come one and one-half
inches below the horizontal line Il
Then your pattern will be lying upon the
cloth as the diagram indicates, and If
you follow all the directions you need
haNa ~ f9or as. TO the result.
Mark the point "C'' three and one
half inches below the point. and cut
on the line acc for the shoulder of thc
front.
Then follow the curve of the armhole
and cut two inches beyond TO the point

wider for the entire length. tnking care
to let the point g be exactly parallel

RATES MUST COME DOWN.
Kansas Commissioners are After the
Railroads.

TOPEKA, June 22.-The railroad
commissioners are gathering data
upon which to base sweeping re-
ductiOn of freight rates in this state.
Commissioner John Hall stated yes
terday afternoon that it was the in
tentiOn Of the board, after the con-
clusiOn Of the Wichita hearing, which
will be resumed in Topeka July IS, to
visit the leading cities of the state,
including not only the jObbing and
manufacturing centers, but also the
larger county seats for the purpose of
taking the evidence Of all classes of
business men. After this new tariff
sheets will be ordered.
Mr.. Hall said the board came to
this conclusion before the Wichita
merchants requested a hearing. The
board, he said, has been studying the
subject ever since the reorganization
and it is the unanimous opinion that
rates are too high and must come
down. There is also, he said, too
great difference in the rates charged
on the various claSSificatiOns. As an
Illustration he said the rate on a car
of wheat from Wichita to Kansas
City is $50, while on car Of alfalfa
the rate is $500. There is of course a
difference in the values of the two
products and the railroads should
properly charge less for transporting
one than the other, but $240 he con-
tinued, is not a reasonable or just
difference and the charges must be
more nearly equalized and the general
schedule on all commodities reduced.
Mr.. Hall said the proposed reduc-
tiOns would be on the line of the order
granted by the old board giving the
interior towns Missouri river rates
and which was enjOined by the dis
trict court Of AtchisOn county upon
the petition Of the Symns Grocer
company, but that the principles of
law laid down by the court would not
be intruded upon, at least until after
the case is finally decided by the
supreme court, where it is now pend.
ing. Mr.. Hall thinks relief can be
granted to shippers and consumers
without interfering with the Symns
case. Tue petition filed by the
Wichita merchants, he said, pract-
ically makes the same demand upon
which the order Of the old board
was made, and, Mr.. Hall said. of
course it will not be granted, but
rates may be reduced from point to
point, which would give the people
the relief demanded. The trouble,
he said, with the complaints of ex-
CeSsiye rates is that one town or Sec
tiOn Of the state seeks to get the best
of other towns or sections, and the
board, he said, was not created for
that purpose. What the board seeks
to- do is to establish rates which
would be fair to all alike and at the
same time give the railroads living
profits. Mr.. Hall did not say it, but
he left the impression that a sched-
ule something like the schedule incOr.
pOrated in the Populist maximum
freight bill which was before the leg
islature last winter, would be the
result of the boards proposed lnves-
| tigati0n.
