ers, as they are Tor every day and are to
be washed often. Ginghams are next in
point of usefulness, and when the colors
are well chosen they make handsome
waists. Some of these are very near like
mems shirts. The bosoms are plated,
the Jokes the same. and the collars made
detachable. The cuffs are usually sewed
fast. The sleeves and cuffs are cut on
the bias. These are very useful waists,
as they do not soil quickly, but they are
not so dressy as others. The blouse is a
favorite for the belted waist and is
made of all the materials now in vogue,
with more or less ornamentation down
the front Some are very much trim
med, and the trimming does not look
out of place. A very pretty blouse shirt
waist was made of p0ngee, and also
copied in grass linen. which bids fair to
be very popular for cool waists all this
season too. This had yoke double
pointed in front and with one point in
the center of the back. On each point in
front was tiny pocket for watch and
car fare. The blouse portion was laid in
loose box plaits, and the front plat was
corded and stitched in four rows and
fastened with ivory buttons. The edge
of the yoke and collar was piped with
brown silk. The collar was quite sim
pie. The sleeves were full bishop and
had cuffs to match the collar and yoke
in the ,piped edge. This was a very re-
fined model and one that middled aged
ladies would find becoming, as well as
young ones.
For young ladies there was a very
dainty waist of polka dotted surah in
old rose with pale blue dots. The
sleeves were tight to the top and had
upturned cuffs of very pale blue silk.
The yoke was closely laid in knife
plaits, and the lower part was gathered
full i'll slight blouse form at the bot
tom. There was wide crush belt of
pale blue with a fancy side bow, and
the stock was made of the same with
a smaller but similar bow There was
a double ruff1e of the same surah, with
fancy edge of crocheted blue silk in
the form of three leaves. This was
sewed to all the edges. This ruffle
formed a bertha across the front and ex-
! tended in the back into bretelles.
Among the novelties which belong to
the shirt waist one finds bingham col
lars and cuffs to match. These contrast
with the waist, and the more sharp the
contrast the better. Some are entirely
plain, and some are bound with ribbon.
These will not wash. One kind has a
queer sort of cravat bow, gathered and
fastened i'll the center, the edges bound
with ribbon. One pretty white linen
choker had Sits through which pink
taffeta ribbon was passed. The ribbon
was twice as wide as the collar and so
formed puffs and then tied in double
bow at the front.
There was chemisette front to wear
with an eton or other open jacket worth
not only mention, but faithful copying.
The front was of very pale pink taffeta
laid in three fiat box plaits. There was

Removing Stains.

Of all linen stains those made by
peaches are the most obstinate, but
these will yield after long soaking in a
weak solution of chloride of lime, one
tablespoonful of lime to four quarts of
water being the proper proportion.
Grass stains can be removed by soaking
in cream of tartar water. For wine
spots sprinkle first with salt, and after
a short time stretch the linen over a
bowl and pour boiling water from tea
kettle held at a considerable height so as
to let the stream fall with force upon
the stain. Popular Science News.

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-Shall we ever
arrive at the blissful condition when
business interests will not be unsettled
by threats of change in the rates of
import duty? Men who are mighty in
the councils of both the great political
parties tell me we never shall. They
say nonpartisan adjustment of the tariff
to business conditions by permanent
commission is what Mr.. Ingalls, would
call an iridescent dream. So long as we
collect any part of our revenue by
means of tax on imports, so long will
there be uncertainty before each cleo
ton as to the tariff policy of the next
administration, and SO long will the
business world sit in fear and trembling
at the prospect of change in the laws.
Tariff History.
This system of collecting revenue was
adopted at the beginning of the repub-
lie. On the Fourth of July, 1889,
George Washington, president, signed
a law whose preamble declared that sit
is necessary for the support of the gov
eminent, for the discharge of the debt
OF the United States and for the encour-
agement and protection of manufactures
that duties be laid ON iMported goods. +"
No material changes in this law were
made until 1912, when, for the purpose
of raising money for the war with Eng

WASHINGTON. July 22.-The resolution Of.
fered by Senator Tillman on May %, quoting
charges made by newspapers that Senators
had speoulated In Sugar stock, and that they
were influenced unduly in making up the sugar
schedule Of tho Tariff bill now under consider
alton, was reported back from the Committee
on Contingent Expenses with the unanimous
recommendation that the investigation pro.
posed by tho resolution should not bo entered
upon.
The most interesting part Of tho report is a
list Of Investigations, similar TO that proposed
in the resolution, running back to 1906, and
showing their futility. Amorg these is tho in
quiry into the socalled silver pool" by a com.
nittee Of which Representative Dingley was
Chairman, and the investigation into tho
charges OF bribery in connection with the cleo
tion of Senators Lapham and Miller of New
York. The report concludes with q slap at
sensational news, as follows:

horses now at Oakley, were the actors In the

deals between the Harlem Racing Association,
which Col. Clark represented, and Corrpan.
1t Is claimed that at the time Harlem began

Relieved OF suspeusion.

WAsHISGToN. July 22.-Earnest efforts are
being made by Senators CullOm and Mason OF
Illinois to secure the restoration to duty OF
Major J. w. Wham, tho army paymaster, who
has figured pI ominenty in several sensations in
years past. Major Wham ia now under suspen-
sion, and the worst OF 1t for him Is that the sem
tence does not expire until the day of his legal
retirement. II he does not get restored to the
active list before tho date of retirement his
name will be dropped from the rolls Of the army,
as no officer can secure the benefits Of the Re-
tirement law while under suspension.
Major Wham has had hard time OF II. He
was held up by bandits once and robbed OF sew.
eral thousand dollars intended for the payment
OF troops. The last ADMINISTRATION tried to re-
tire him, but the Major defeated tho scheme.
Then he was tried by court-martial for not pay
ing his debts and sentenced TO period Of sus-
pension and to rema N at the foot of tho list OF
Majors in his branch of the service. Recently
charges of failing to satisfy tho claims OF his
creditors were again brought, but tho War De-
partment has decided to Ignore these. because
the alleged debts were not contracted within

by Hawaii to Japan that their differences grow
ing out Of the immigration and other questions
be submitted to arbitration has not assumed
definite shape. The matter has not progressed
further than mere suggestion. No details as
to tho character Of tho proposed settlement,
terms on which 1t shall be conducted, and tho
manner Of attaining the peaceable end desired
were contained in tho proposal Of Hawaii
The Japanese Government has expressed q
willingness, through the official press. to meet
Hawaii half way, but as far as known here no
official answer has been sent to the authorities
OF the republic. Information has been received
in Washington that the Japanese will take no
action until they learn the details OF Haw aii's
proposal. and will SO inform the Dole Govern
ment. giving assurances. however, that they
will 20 glad TO consider. with the prospect of an
affirmative decision, definite propositions for

the suggestion of arbitration has even greater
interest to the department, for it is said on ex.

The main question affecting the situation in
Hawaii is the attitude assumed by the Japanese
Government In its protest against the annexa-
tion treaty. Twelve days ago the Japanese
Minister in Washington sent reply to the note
OF Secretary Sherman concerning the protest,
but no answer has been returned by the State
Department. 1t was said at the State Depart

that the dealings Of the United States and Japan
on the subject Of annexation would be trans.
