Brilliant colors in gloves are prom
ised There have been rumors of gay
ness in color and workmanship in gloves
for some time 1t is very doubtful,
however, If any especial brilliance in
handwear becomes general. People in
the long run have too good taste to in
dulge in anything so unpleasantly con-
spicuous, although taste is often strange
ly warped by fashion But there are
symptoms of color in gloves which are
still in good taste. Four button, white
dressed kid gloves show in the stitching
in the back delicate blue, pink, green
and brown, and in some cases the bind
ing around the wrist is of the same col
or. This is not unpleasant. although a
glove with broad, heavy, white silk
stitching has more character. Walking
gloves in dark plum color and green are
pretty, with suits of corresponding col

ANTIBREAkFAST CRUSADE.
Under McKinley's Administration the
Worker Gets Three Meals n Day.

According to the Chicago Times Her
aid "down east doctor has started
an antibreakfast crusade and is trying
to induce working people to get along
without morning meal. Had the sug
gestion come a little earlier we might
have supposed that this was some new
free trade scheme for convincing the
American people that they were better
off under the workshop shutting, wage
reducing Wilson German law than they
were under the Mckinley law, which
gave protection to American industries
and work to American workingmen.
The free traders would undoubted-
ly have hailed the mo breakfast"
scheme as another proof of the inherent
virtue of free trade on the ground that
free trade would compel people to adopt
the healthful habit Of going without
breakfast by depriving them of the
means with which to provide morning
meal.
Perhaps this "no breakfast" doctor is
a free trader who has been taking Rip
Van Wrinkle sleep and has not yet found
out that the foreigners friend is no
more, but that we are now living under
a law which looks out for American in
terests, and that, thanks to that law,
factories are opening everywhere to
give work and wages to the American
people. This means money enough to
buy three square meals day. There is
no danger of American workingmen be-
ing compelled to go without breakfast,
and, unless they are compelled to go
without it, they won't do it, This doc
tors prescription comes too late to be
generally followed. He may find a mar
ket for it during our next congressional
campaign under the auspices of the
New York Reform club or Of the Bos-
ton Free Trade club. Meantime he
should board with Professor Edward
Atkinson, who recommends wage earn
ers not to spend more than dollar o
week for their meals.
