Another delightful frock shown by

wolfe over black silk This toilette
had been designed for country house
junketings at Lenox, but it looked as
if the boulevards of Paris were it's ia
miliar haunts. For the placing of
white over black is a trick of the
French costumers, and everywhere the
arrangement results in the usual ele-
gance displayed by these people Mad
anne. the American maker, pointed out
one salient need for correct effects:
The white which goes over black
should be thick enough to resist too
much darkening from the lining. So
the yelling she had chosen was of the
thickest mesh, soldier in weave than
the usual voiles, though it fell with
wolfe softness. With this she had
combined wool embroideries and cat
for trimming.
The stitching held down the shallow
tucks of the blouse bodice and sleeves,
the tucks of these running bias and
the others up and down. At the front

Bodices should be hung over forms,

out the sleeves. For Hanging the skirt,
fold the belt directly in the middle,
and suspend it tightly from two safety
pins placed at either end. These will
go over small hanging hooks, and if
the wardrobe is sufficiently high and
spacious the skirt is improved by the
treatment. Short clothes closets, which
force the train to lie on the floor, in

So much for the woman who can't

who can three charming gowns by a

admirable hints, all being in styles as

One of these also heads the top fiounce,

Unless it is constantly renewed or
freshened. August is the month when
the summer wardrobe takes on a faded
air. Two months of hard use have told
on airy gowns. whose crisp freshness
was their chief attraction; paled are
the blossoms in the garden of hatland;
and ribbons. daintiest ornaments in the
world of dress, are deep in the wrin-
kles of middle age. Some magic is
required here to restore departed
youth, but once learned, the rejuvena-
ton of dress is a simple matter.
For one thing, all diaphanous gowns,
whether of wool or cotton, should be
kept well pressed; first dampening
nuslins with weak solution of gum
arabic and water. Then renewing
flowers will do much toward helping a
hat through the season. and silk
frocks can be kept in good order by
simply putting them away properly.

EMBROIDERY FOR THE QUEEN.

Embroidery That Equals Painting.
That no presents can be received by

unwritten rules on the English court.
The acceptance by Queen Alexandra

A publisher of cheap books who ix

among Chicago newspaper men that

Booth Harrington takes his seat in the

the best literature during the preced-
ing year. Mr.. Harrington has not
yet taken his seat. indeed he has not
yet been elected. though the fact of
his election is generally conceded, but
it is likely that some of his Indianapo-

him. A number of Indiana authors
have been asked seriously for their
opinions on the matter and most of
them are against any such plan.

INSULT TO ROOSEVELT.
How Mr.. Gompers Views Operators
Proposition.


Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor, with whom Mr.. Mitchell has
been in constant communication anc
consultation, declined all requests of
newspapers for an expression of opin-
ion on the proposition of the coal oper-
ators, but during the night stated his
views to the Associated Press. Mr..
Gompers said:
you can readily understand that I
want to leave the whole matter in the
hands of Mr.. Mitchell and his col
leagues. am particularly anxious not
to say anything that might be con-
strued otherwise. I will say that in
my opinion the proposition made by
the operators, at least so far as their
designation of who should be invited
to go on the commission or arbitration
is concerned, is an insult to the presi-
dent of the United States. desire that
the president should use his discretion
in the selection of the personnel of the
commission. BY indirection it would
seem from the operators proposition
that the president has evil designs on
the mine owners. No one believes this,
The operators Indicate what class of
men should be selected for the per-
sonnet of the commission.
For instance, they say that an ex-
pert mining engineer experienced in
the mining of coal and other minerals
and not in any way connected with
coal mining properties, shall be one of
the members. In other words, this one
must be an expert miner out of job.
One Must Be an Operator.
This member must either have been
employed in the mines as an expert or
must expect or hope to be employed in
the future. Another must be an emf
nent sociologist. Well, who? Must
be be speculative sociologist, theo-
rist or what? Another member is to
be some man actively participating in
the mining and selling of coal and ia
miliar with the commercial value as
we'll as the physical part of the bust
ness. This must certainly be one of
the operators or one of their repre-
sentatives. No other man familiar
with the commercial features of the
business in those fields fits that de-
scription
"Ih the classes of persons from
whom the mine owners prescribe tho
commission shall be selected there is
to be not single representative of the
man who digs coal, the man who works
in and about the mine.
Nov, as matter of fact, the entire
question of selection and appointment
OF commission should be left to the
president of the United States. Mr..
Mitchell has said that he will be per-
fectly satisfied with whomever the
president selects. If the mine owners
are to be permitted to suggest who
shall constitute the arbitration COM
mission, why in all fairness should it
not follow that Mr.. Mitchell should
likewise be permitted to make sug-
gestions as to the personnel of the
commission? hope that the president
will decline to act on this proposition
of the mine owners unless he is given
a free hand.''
Two names suggested for members
of the commission of arbitration are
Carroll D. Wright, the commissioner
of labor, and r. w. Parker, statistician
of the United States geological sur
vey.
