tailor suits The vests are usually white
or some very light tint.
Many fanciful arrangements are made
for dressy basques, where the stuff Is cut
away and filed in with lace over contrast
ing color. Fine lines of silk embroidery
in natural colors are seen as decorations
to some Of these basques.
One brown cloth basque had narrow
lines of this pink and green and silver en-
broidery along all edges. The vest was
white satin. One manufacturer declared
that the return TO favor of the princess
gown and the vest basque marked the
deathblow of the blouse and shirt waist
Looking at the tons of those two styles of
garments stacked up there ready to be sent

quilting of black satin ribbon scalloped
around 1t, and around the bottom of the
Dewey 1ounce was another. The waist
was dainty arrangement of white lace
and red satin milliner's folds, with cream
oolored satin belt.
White, black and cream colored satin
ribbon of the richest possible quality is
used as belts and other trimming. Some
times the black and white are mingled.
This is fancy that bids fair to be very
much in favor, particularly as 1t will also
prevail very largely In millinery.

tations are numerous. The plain of st.
German, on the southwestern coast, is
probably the most populOus district in
Porto Rico.
Mr. Gustave Preston, a prominent
Boston merchant who has travelled in
Porto Rico and who has business inter.
ests there, is quoted as follows.
"If we are to own Porto Rico there
can be no question Of the future pros
perity of the island, as a large amount
Of capital will seek investment there.
The retention of Porto Rico cannot in
any way cause opposition from our
southern ana western representatives.,
as the island will never be able to sori-
ously affect the sugar industries of any
section of this country as would un-
doubtedly be the case if we retained the
Philippines and Cuba,
"Coffee in matter Of value is the
principal product exported. The noun
tain coffee grown in the neighborhood
of Yauco is of very superior quality
and esteemed in the European markets,
where it commands the highest prices.
Sugar products amount to about
80, 900 tons, which are chiefly exported
to the United States. Molasses is chiefly
exported to New England ports, and
Boston takes the largest share The
grades of molasses from Ponce, Arroyo
and Mayaguez are considered the best.
"a very fine quality of tobacco is
raised in the interior near Cayey, and
much Of it goes to Havana and is used
for cigar making. Cattle are raised in
the east end of the island and go to the
neighboring French and English is.
lands"
1t will not be long before Porto Rico
will begin TO feel the impetus of Ameri-
can push and enterprise. The represen-
tatives of capital who have raced to be
first in the field will Of necessity put
their plans into operation as quickly as
possible, At least two new steamship
lines to connect the island with Ameri-
can ports are projected, and before the
first Of our troops begin to come home
from there Porto Rican products may
be looked for in our markets For the
island it means new and wider COM
mercial era. For us 1t ought to mean
"good times" with all that the hack
neyed expression was originally meant
TO convey. CYRUS SYLVESTER.

crazy and mix themselves up with roman

departure and resemble nothing so much

for long while In one of our prinoipal
stores whole suit was made Of one of
these blanket shawls. The skirt was cut

expect each boy to be self sustaining as
soon as may be.
1.-THE organization will not be sectarian.
Amy boy who SHOWS desire for i'm
provement-Protestan Catholic or Hin
doo-will be admitted. 1t is cur theory
that good citizens may be made out Of
many boys whom unfavorable environ
ment now impels toward badness. We
want to utilize what might be the waste
material of society, turning a possible dis
grace into an ornament.
"As to actual plans, the boys will not
be herded together in one great building.
We shall build number of cottages, four
possibly at the start, each of which will
accommodate from 10 to 10 boys. In that
way individuality and a certain degree of
home life will be preserved. Wherever II
is possible the boys will have separate
rooms. Not more than two will occupy
any apartment, A matron and man In
charge will be assigned to each house.
Each boy upon entering the school
will have an acre Of ground adjoining the
cottage in which he lives. This he will
consider his own, and upon 1t he will raise
whatever he pleases. The separate acres
will radiate from the house like tho spokes
of n wheel from the hub. Nearest the
dwelling there will be a flower garden,
then tract devoted to vegetables or Il
poultry, whichever the boy wishes to raise,
and at the outer circle berry bushes. The
product of each boys little farm will be
sold, and he win receive the proceeds
With this he will pay certain percentage
to the school and keep the balance fol

will enable us to carry on the work."

Under the Spanish regime nothing
bat agricultural pursuits has been en-
UOuraged in Porto Rico. The natives
were allowed to raise sugar and coffee
and q few other products and were al
most compelled TO send the bulk Of
their crops to Spain. Most Of the manu-
factured goods which they bought in re-
turn came from Spain.
But we are going to change all that.
Spain is q very poor market for any
thing. The United States is good one
for almost everything, and besides it is
so much handler to Porto Rico Here
after we will probably get most of Por-
TO Rico's sugar and coffee. Thus will
the war have its effect ON the breakfast
table. Today you probably cannot buy

grocery store. By Christmas time you
will probably be able to buy all you
need straight from the plantations Of
the erich Port Isle.
But this is not to be a one sided deal.
We arc preparing to give the Porto
Ricans something in exchange for their
plantation products. We will send them
all sorts of cloth, machinery, shoes,
hats, bicycles for their maoadam roads,
pianos for their parlors, trolley cars for
the cities, notions, Boston baked beans
