AMERICAN
GIRLS
FREEDOM

That little girl who was brought into
notorio y with a death charged to her
account is a terrible warning against
the so-called freedom" of the Ameri-
can girl that has been the talk ((and
not altogether favorable talk) of every
country, says a writer in the Phila-
delphia North American.
Out with another girl of her own age.
at one of the amusement parks, with
no check on her pert forms of anus
ing herself. she swung on the power of
the trolley that was Just ready to start
and ran the car over the motorman

fore the very consciousness Of the

man down, to say nothing Of a child.
she becomes defiant.
Women everywhere are wondering
at it. The very shock, itself, of being
present at so sudden a death, should
have shaken her composure. Her
father, realizing the enormity OF the
deed and her apparent callousness,
broke completely down. and left the
courtroom sobbing, while his defiant
little child was led away-dry-e
to await the decision of the court
The whole story is terrible. But
what has made it possible? Isn't it
time something frightful like this very
accident should occur to make people
realize that the wonderful freedom our
girls have been reveling in is becoming
unlicensed?
Webster, or some one of our glorious
patriots, says that there can be no
true liberty where there is no obe-
dience to just laws" Surely some
sort of discipline ought to be main
tanned over childreni
The growing practice of allowing
young girls to roam the streets and
parks alone, by day or night, is becom-
ing one of the evils we women must
work to destroy.
Give child a taste of the unnatural
life and her appetite becomes perverted.
Instead Of romping and playing in an
innocent way. she requires something
TO be going on every moment, until, at
the best, she becomes a hollow, incap-
able, hardened woman, and at the
worst
The cid idea Of shielding a woman
from care and knowledge of the world
was perhaps too binding in it's restric-
tions, but it kept young girls safe
kept them in a state of wholesome in
nocence and sweetness.
That life couldn't exist now. With
girls pushing to the front in every way
in business, in sports, in the thou
sand and one ways that were debarred
in olden times, there must be more
freedom.
But surely it need not extend to
children. Girls OF II or IL are no fit
judges of their own actions and need
. a certain amount of restraint or dis
cipline.
Keep your girls close to you-you
mothers who hail their going out with
so much relief-keep your girls close.
and don't let them be added to the list
of terrible sacrifices to the spirit of
unlicensed freedoml

CARE or THE EYEBROWS.


To every fifty women who worry
themselves over their hair. there is
only about one who gives a second

A great deal may be done to improve
the eyebrows In the first place they

VELVET RIBBON TRIMMING.

A most modish trimming for taffeta
dresses is supplied by narrow velvet
ribbon. A chameleon silk. sheening blue
and crimson and beruffied from head to
foot, has each rufhe trimmed with four
rows of crimson velvet ribbon, the wild
est stripe half an inch wide and the
narrowest scarcely an eighth 1t Is not

must be painstakingly put on by hand.

A PRETTY FALL FASHION.

A pretty fashion which has been
started of late is that Of wearing
cockades of colored velvet or ribbon,
one on the left side of the corsage
rather high up, and the other on the
right side at the waist line. They are
large and are generally Of contrast
ing color to that of the gown with
which they are worn. Rosettes Of
burnt orange velvet make an exceed
ingly pretty accompaniment to a smart
afternoon gown of brown plisse chiffon.

BRIEF HINTS.

Hair nets Of heavy silk, ornarnented
with beads and fringe, are a probable
style.
Wide strings of net. tied in a big
bow at the left of the chin, will make
some of the winter hats decidedly pic
turesque.
A new chiffon veil can hide a null
titude of sins in the way of a shabby
summer hat.
The Powered frocks need no TRIM
ming save sash and big hat. and they
make girl look like picture.

MILLINERY.

The hat scarf differs from the veil
in that it is wound about the hat, never
over the face. New scarfs are of lace
in black. white and colors, with en-
brcidery in self color and contrasting
colors.
Ribbons of all descriptions are to be
used upon the new hats. Among the
new ribbons are the plaids, the floral.

CURIOUS COMBINATION.

A curious fashion which has made
its appearance of late Is that of wear
ing a ceinture of black taffeta with a
colored costume. To accompany it
there is generally a rosette of black
taffeta worn on one side of the cor
sage, and sometimes the same is re-
peated on the sleeves The effect is
not always of the happiest. especially
when the gown is trimmed with a
different eolored material to that Of
which it is made, and 1t may be doubt
ed whether the vogue will be of long
duration.

popuLaRsuBscRlpTIoa BEING RAISED
A New Team of Horses to BE Purchased
fer Monaghan Hose Company.

Messrs. W. B. Boyle and L. Z.
White are making a canvass of the
city with a subscription list for the
purpose of raising sufficient money to
purchase a new pair of horses for
Monaghan Hose Company. The kill
ing of Carney, one OF the pair of bays
on Thursday night, makes it neces-
sary that new pair be purchased, for
it is impossible to find match for
the remaining horse. It is proposed
to raise 81, ,000 by public subscription,
as tha5 sum will be needed to pur
chase pair to replace the bays.
Already ABOUT $500 have been con-
tributed and the full amount will un-
doubtedly be secnred. AS the fire
department. is entirely volunteer
organization and the horses and ap-
paratus have been purchased through
the efforts of the members, the ely
cannot be called on to purchase new
horses for Monaghan Hose Company
unless it shall be determined to re-
organize the fire department and make
it a paid department, and it is the
general opinion that the city is not
yet ready for this change. 1t is
stated by the subscription committee
that there will be 20 possibility Of
another accident occurring like shat Of
Thursday night for the custom Of rae
ing to fires will be abolished. It is
hoped that the contributions will be
liberal and immediate, for the city
cannot get along without the fire de-
partment.
The contribution OF Mr.. W. A.
Brown of S. for each OF UEe FIRE in
surance companies that he represents
was particularly welcome addition
to the funds because it was an evil
dence that the fire insurance compa-
MES are not altogether unappreciative
of the good work that our volunteer
department has done at all fires since
it was organized some ten years ago.
The other insurance agencies will
take up the matter with their comra-
MES aud it is hoped that they will be
as liberal as the companies represent
ed by Mr.. Brown.
