THE DUST PETTICOAT
The petticoat for travelling deserves "a
chapter by itself. 1t is not Of silk, Of
that you may be certain. The silk skirt
is far too frail for such a mission. 1t
soils too easily and is too expensive TO
replace.
There are several skirts used for tray
cling skirts under light weight gowns.
one is the near silk skirt which is al
most as light as silk and every whit as
effective. You cannot tell IT from taffeta
IN certain lights. You can set a near
silk skirt in cerise with two ruffies, each
rufle being composed Of three overlap

and you do not want TO do any better
than that. You can make one up even

well.

country is honeycombed with subterra-

that region have been sinking for ages
Many Of the sinks have trees growing in
them, the dimensions Of which Indicate
that they must be centuries old. There is

FOOLS NOeODY.

The Republican organs arejust now

This assumed Indignation is merely
an effort to kick up a cloud of dust
until election day IS past.
The Republican majority in Con-
gress deliberately arranged the war

could escspe the tax.
Don't forget that.
The Republican majority solidly
voted against and defeated a war rev-
enue bill, presented by the Senate
Committee. which would have com

other corporations TO pay II Of the
cost Of the war.
Don't forget that, either
The Republicans complain that the
express companies take advantage Of
the wording OF the law to put the tax
on the customer.
Why did they word the law SO?
Why did they not make the law
clear and mandatory?
Why did they not make the law
read:
The companies shall pay for the
stamps.
1t is unless to plead ignorance
They knew better.
The only reasonable conclusion il
that the bill vas purvo>ely drawn sc
that the companies would not have
the tax to pay.
They let all the other corporation
off. Why should they cinch the ex
press companies?

MILITARY RED TAPE.

thus tells OF the rsd tape i'll the

But red tape is responsible for many
sins, and as it has 10 personality II
cannot be punished. II is a system,
and apparently the only possible one,
by which each and every office may
be held accountable for his own acts;
il is also a clog a s~hackle, a handcuff
to every competent officer who knows
how he might remedy visible evils
were he anywhere but i'll the army.
Were a member of the medical or
quartermaster's department TO see
soldiers starving while abundant good
food material was within an arm 5
reach. he would have no authority to
obtain a portion Of the stores or re-
lieve the suffering. A COm1nlsSary
or Qua1termaster, of no matter how
high rank, would not dare open a case
of medical stOres-nOt even TO save a
REGIMENT rom sudden death-nOt
could a surgeon take clothing from a
quarte1master's stock to save sick
soldiers from freezing TO death. Such
is the power of red tape. Almost all
other civilized nations manage These
matters better, as the result of long
experience in war, and as we alsC
Will when Congress allows us to have
one proper general staff department
instead Of ten that are bound to con
