The climax of absurdity in paternal
government has been reached in a bill
introduced into the New York legisla-
ture. The bill in question provides for
the licensing of bill posters and for the
wearing of a badge by them. This would
not do so much harm if the proposed law
did not 90 further and prohibit anybody
else from sticking up a bill. If a farme,
had q sale Of live stock and wanted tc
announce it to his neighbors, he would
not be allowed under such a law as thii
even to paste his sale bills upon his OWL
gate. he would have to get the licensed
bill poster to do it.

ished with some sort of high fanciful collar
with a faring effect, although pierrot col
lars of thickly plated three or four inch
ribbon are often adopted. Most Of the capes
are black unless made to match a gown,
but they are frequently lined with bright
tinted silk, generally of a solid color. Capes
made of heavy net are also seen plated Or
rufied and trimmed with bands of ribbon
and black or white lace. These are worth
nothing as protection, Of course, and rede-
signed merely to give finish to the street
toilet. Coarse plain net Ii used in prefer
ence to the Nght lacy kind and is more ef-
fective add durable. No plain capes are
seen They all have some sort of wide
trimming about the neck or shoulders. One
u the prettiest has a plated pelerine point
ed back and front, while another consists
Of three graduated ruffles. A third has a
yoke bordered with a wide ruf1e.
Rather an odd Partisan model of a wrap
is shown which it is difficult to define as
either a cape or a cloak. 1t consists of two
accordion plated panels of black silk Grape,
which are gathered into a pierrot collar
at the neck, and fall, one over each shoulder,
to the bottom of the skirt. They are en-
tirely separate back and front, and open
ings for the arms are concealed among the
plaits. These openings are overhung by
deep accordion plated epaulets of the
same material. Two ends of black satin
ribbon fall from the neck to the hen OF
this singular garment, which is very light
very thin and very becoming.

sewed on the garment. The spangles come
in black, steel and gold, but the black ones
are most used.
Jet beads are also often mingled with
black spangles to give a richer effect. Span
gled GALLON is to be found in various
widths, consisting of bands of spangles
overlapping like scales. and it is much
lighter in weight than the jet bands that
were formerly such a ~favorite trimming.
Jet is still much worn nevertheless, espe-
cially in millinery, and will probably still
remain popular after the present rage for
spangles has subsidized. The latter are pref
ty for a change and do not require to be
arranged In line and elaborate patterns in
order to give an effective result. Besides
the 1ounces and ruchings already men
toned, which are made Of gauze, lace, net,
grenadine and silk, thin spangled stuffs
come by the yard for gowns, wide enough
for the length Of the skirt and embroidered
With detached figures and a border or other
suitable pattern.
These transparent materials form charm
lnRly dainty evening costumes made up
over silk or satin. They come in all colors,
black showing on to particular advantage
BY artificial light. Spangled fans msy b
obtained to 20 with these gowns.

The mind cure healers, the natural
healers and those who cure by faith and
prayer are making a fight in the New
York legislature against the proposed
law to allow nobody to practice the doc
tors profession except those who have
diplomas from authorized medical col
leges. On general principles it looks as
if anybody who can cure people ought
to be permitted to do it by whatever
agency he can utilize. The main point
is to cure humanity, and there is need
enough Of that. Still, why do not the
mind cure, faith and Christian Science
healers make use of their occult power
to defeat the Objectionable measure? If
that power will heal diseases, it certain
ly will work for other ends as well. 1t
looks like disrrust of their own powers
when these healers must resort to the
measures used by ordinary mortals to
fight Objectionable laws. Why do they
not will the evil away or declare it non
