Again is the army canteen brought
before the public. Ever since the
canteen was discarded from the army
posts it is claimed by officers that its
absence has had the effect of driving
the soldiers to much worse quarters
for the purpose of obtaining some
thing to drink, for it has proven a
difficult matter to force a man to
abstain from the use of liquors if he
wants it right bad. General Bates,
paymaster of the army. contributed
the following to Adjutant General
Corbin on the subject of the absence
of the canteen:
The claim Of the War Department
IN recommending the restoration of
the canteen to the army, that dur
ing the operations of the canteen
law the discipline of the army was
superior, assertions much less and
that there were fewer fines and
fo~rfeItures by court martials on
account of breaches of military
discipline resulting from the use of
lntoxicants by men in the service,
appears to be fully borne out by the
records of the paymaster generals
offices.

affirm ative side, and declared that
the whole world admired the mother
SO much that the men could take
care of the voting. She thought
that if the matter of color entered
into the controversy the red man
was surely bright enough. Mrs. NJ.
l.. Bobb was one of the negative
speakers. and declared that she
wanted the women TO have the ballot
as she was going TO be a candidate for
governor. She thought that educa-
tion did very little good for the
Indian. for they invariably returned
TO their tepeeS on the plains when
through school and resumed their
former habits. In time she thought
that their method of living would
make the race extinct.
Prof. E. j. Quigley closed the ar
gument for the negative side of the
question, and the professor grew
quite sincere in his statements. He
believed it right and just for woman
to have the ballot, and could not
conceive Of any reason why she
should be denied it. The time was
when there was some question about
1t, but today, when woman stands
socially, morally, INTELLECTUALLY and
from a business point of view the
equal OF man she is very much en-
titled to the ballot. He declared
that voting vas a political right and
carries with it the right to dispose
OF property, and believed that any
woman possessing property should
nave an equal voice in saying how
she should be taxed. He said that
the voting places Of today were such
any woman could go there and
her ballot without the fear Of
being disturbed. He did not think
she would lose any of the graces
which we so much admire by her use Of
the ballot and freQuenting the pol
ling places.
Dr. b. A. Bobb closed the argu-
nent for the Affirmative side by
te1utlng in a very logical manner the
that had been produced
IN the other side.
The debate lasted an hour and a
lalf and there was a great deal of

Someone has said that If a woman
wants to make man fall in love with
her she should wear white. The new
Bob White" Is very pretty frock of
sheer white lawn. It is more like the
simple and dainty muslin frocks of our
grandmothers that did not have to be
sent TO the cleaner, but could be
plunged in the tub and came forth as
fresh as a daisy. The Bob White" is
a shirtwaist suit The skirt is trimmed
with a graduated founce put on with a
narrow band of embroidery, or there
is sometimes hemstitohing at the top
and foot of the fiounce The waist
opens in the back. The front is trim
med with clusters Of fine tucks alter
mating with rows of embroidery inser-
tion. The back is trimmed with clus-
ter tucks. The collar is tucked and fin
ished with hemstitched turnover. The
bishop sleeve has a tucked cuff. The
Bob White costs just$3 25-no worry
ing over the fitting nor trouble in max
ing-a dress all ready to slip on-and
for barely the cost of the materials.

Secret Of Youth and Beauty

A scientific contemporary has been
discussing why women, as they ad-
vance in years, grow palmer than men,
and why marriage so frequently de-
stroys their good looks, says the Lady S
Pictorial. With this very question Max
sO'Rell also deals in his latest book, and
it encourages the hope that a woman
may retain her youthful appearance
longer, and thus gain another point
ngiying her further equality with man,
to find that both the scientific and the
philosophic writer's agree on the point
that careful attention TO the personal
appearance and the temper may do
much to preserve youth and beauty.
Max O'Rell bluntly says that discreet
and judicious coquetry will keep a
woman absolutely beautiful and young

draw the veil Our scientific mentor

ANXIETY IN LONDON
London Papers Are Hopeful for Kings
Recovery

London. June 25-The London morn
ing papers refer editorially to the dark
shadow which has fallen over the ma
tion, and to It's utterly unprecedented
character. While they strive to main
tain an air OF hopefulness. they have
difficulty in concealing their anxiety
at the danger which will hang over
the kings life for some days to come.
They eXhort the public to abandon all

and prayerfully TO the duties of every
day existence as most beating the
dignity Of the nation.

country will bear one more infiction.

times before borne troubles which for

THE "ALEXANDRA" LINEN SUIT
AND THE ''BOB WHITE LAWN FROCK

Time and again has the charge Of ex-
travagance been laid at the door of
tickle and frivolous Madame Fashion,
but THAT style and economy can be on
speaking terms in the realm of modes
is demonstrated by the display in a
well-known shop of what are aptly call
ed the Alexandra linen suit and the
new Bob White lawn suit"
The coronation in London has
given an English turn to many of our
fashions this summer. Queen Alexan-
dra did much to popularize tailor-made
gowns, and this new Norfolk suit,
which has been named after England's
lovely and loyable Queen, has the trim
cut and smart finish which are associ-
ated with the tailor-made gown. The
Alexandra" is of linen in natuarl
color. The skirt, of walking length,
has a graduated fiounce. The jacket
in Norfolk style-is finished with stitch
ing, and pearl buttons are used with
good effect upon it. An Alexandra
suit can be bought for $3.50.

howery sprays, the latter sprayed also,
but, to my way Of thinking, prettiest
plain, or boasting only a big or little
spot as the case may be, are redolent
of Quaintness and those heroines, the
embOdiments of feminine grace and
beauty which the novelists of a past
day were aways careful to depict in
white muslin (present day heroines
figure chiefly in tweeds and sensible
boots). Then the handwork, those mi
mute lingerie tucks, lace veinings and
insertions, appliques and embroideries,
are designed most surely to captivate
the eye, especially the feminine eye,
for what to THE male mind means sim
plicity. easily acquired without any
fuss, you know, means to her the touch
OF the master hand, beyond the ken of
the little dressmaker, innate perfection,
and therefore acquirable only at great
price, sometimes with labor and sor-
row.
