BEAUTIES OF SOCIALISM.

A great deal has been printed in
the American press during the last
two or three years on the beauties of
Socialism, as exempllfied in the gov
ernment of Austria. and most of il
seems to have been written to show
that under the provisions of the single
tax, total domination of the unions,
ETC., a degree of perfection had been
reached closely approaching that of
Utopia. But that there is another
side to this, as to all questions. is
clearly set forth by a recent report of
the Department of Commerce and La
bor, which aaotes an article from the
Colonizer. London journal devoted
to colonization and immigration.
According to this authority condi-
tions in the Australian Commonwealth
are just now anything but Utopian.
People are leaving the country lit
orally by the thousands. and they are
not OF the transient, here-today and
gone tomorrow kind either. They
are for the most part natives or old
settlers. farmers. tradesmen and few
master craftsmen. According to the
official reports no fewer than 16, 237
persons left New South Weles alone
during the first six months of 1908 for
ports outside the Commonwealth. the
emigration exceeding the immigration
by %. 116. During the decade 1891
1901 the population of this state re-
mained stationary. Since then it has
shown a marked decrense.
Between 1861 and 1891 the popula.
tion of Australia increased more than
700. 600, but during the last ten years
the excess of immigration was only
3 200. or at the rate of 500 year. 1t
is pointed out that at this rate it
would take 1900 years to reach the
level attained ten years ago.
The government of the Common
wealth. as we'll as the various state
governments. are committed to the
theories of Socialism. and the Social
ist Labor party is everywhere domin-
ant. Every conceivable law has been
enacted to further the interests of the
workingman; arbitration courts and

has been left undone that could tend
toward making it paradise for the
man who toils-and yet neither he
nor his employer can make living
in it. Both are deserting the country
as fast as they can get away-a coun-
try capable of supporting the whole
of Europe.

Exchanging Children

a mussy appearance if wrinkled in

The young woman who receives for
the first time an invitation for a
weekend visit should ascertain how
her hosts live in summer. There is
nothing more embarrassing than tc
accept an invitation from a hostess
who persists that "we live most in
formally, in camp STYLE" and then for
the guest to find evening dress al

In fact, it is always safe to take
into the Japanese hamper a pretty
summer frock with detachable yoke
A dimity or an organdy made with a
Dutch neck and a tucker of finest
hand work, will meet this want, as
a frock which shows moderately low
neck is in better taste for summer
than the decollete frock which is de
riguer in winter. The young girl

which is infinitely to be preferred to
the heavier suit case.
Wherever she may be going the
travelling suit is first to be consid-
cred This should escape the ground
all the way round and display a
smartly shod foot. Hosiery and low
cut shoes matching and a tailored
shirt waist should be worn with this
suit. The fine lawn blouse, with its
1880 bertha of hemstitching and lace,
is for the hotel piazza, not for the
train
If she is to visit a family whose
members go in ~heavily for athletics
the skirt of her travelling dress should
be one which she can wear with a
shirt waist and stitched linen hat
on the golf links, or on the water.
If her friends go in for automobiling,
then she should by all means take her
silk or cravenette dust-coat with an
all-enveloping veil The travelling
dress will answer for the morning
walk on the beach, and a shirt-waist
suit of linen or silk is always a de-
pendable article for the weekend trip.
Pure white dresses are hardly ad-
visable for such visit, unless trunk

home of suburban friends, sent them
back to the city refreshed and ready
for another week of work Now the
humblest of clerks and workers in
the commercial centers leave the city
when the shops close at twelve on
Saturday and do not return until Mon
day morning
The up-to-date girl who figures on
number of weekend invitations
prepares for the summer campaign
accordingly. If she is to be the guest
at home where the social life is ex-
ceedingly gay and where the run of
dinners, dances and garden parties
never ends, she will count among her
most necessary possessions a dress
hamper of wicker, lined with canvas,
in which gowns are imported from
the other side These are admirably
suited for carrying summer frocks and
will call down upon the guests head
the blessings of the servants at the
home she visits.
Next to this the steamer trunk may
be used, and if the home life iss in
formal, or if the girl goes to some
quiet resort for a restful time, she

ager may have a silk frock for driv-
ing and dinner, but even with ad-
vancing years wash materials are in
better taste.
If the men of the party are on hand
only at night, women guests will find
pretty negligee comforting, but it
must be so berufled and lace

H0W Uncle Sam Cares

r IKE the child of whom it was
written, Uncle Sam, when he is
- good, is very, very good. This
fact was forcibly brought home
not long ago to little French woman
living IN a city on the western slope
of the Allegheny Mountains. She is
so grateful since the Government took
such excellent care of her sick imrni
grant brother that no one dares say a
word in her presence against Fed
eral official, big or little.
When the brother arrived at Ellis Is
land, New York, the doctors attached
to the big immigration station saw at
once that the man was suffering from
some disease that had evidently had a
long hold on him. Fearing that it
might be consunption-the law for
bids the landing of tuberculous patients
the Frenchman was sent to the hos
pital for immigrants, finely equipped
building overlooking New York Bay
from one end of the island. Here he
was to be kept under observation
until such time that the doctors could
make up their minds as to whether he
had tuberculosis.
But before they could arrive at a
safe diagnosis the mans heart gave
out, and he hung between life and
death for a week. All the while a
man nurse attended him and one Of
the staff of physicians was close at
hand. He was given the most ap-
proved treatment; and he himself SAID
to his nurse few moments before he
breathed his last: Monsieur, this is
the best care | ever had in all my life"

But she realized a week: later, when
she received a comforting letter from
an official, that the body had been
given better burial than she woulc

she had put herself in debt for
months

A Novelty in Summer China.

Persons making a round of visits
at sumner cottages observe the pop
ularity of we old English china, a nov
city which, while effective, is some
what gaudy in its design. 1t comes
in exaggerated flower, fruit and ami
NAL patterns on white, and is heavy
ware which is not easily broken.
On the breakfast dishes the chicken
patterns are favorite decorations, and
a large china flower basket is adorned
with great clusters of roses in their
natural tints. This basket is also
used as jardiniere.
A large rose jar in the shape of
beehive forms an odd piece in one
set 1t is decorated with swarms of
bees, which stand out so distinctly as
to seem real. A wine lugger comes
in the same ware, as do toilet sets
and vases.
Lettuce ware is also noticed in the
summer dining room. 1t is green and
fresh looking, and lends an outdoor
touch to the room.

Quoted in exceedingly good taste, and
there was even a tribute of flowers

Any Immigrant who dies on the ISL
and is thus buried by the Governments
claims the body; and the Government
has separate plots for Jew, Protestant
and Catholic. The cost of burial is
borne by the Government but the
steamship company bringing over a
sick immigrant has to stand the ex-
penses incidental to the treatment of
patient The Government is not
squeamish about running up big bill,
as is evidenced by the fact that
patient is given treatment similar to
that received by the average private
patient in any large hospital in New
York or Chicago.
The steamship company is made to
pay this amount as a sort of fine for
bringing over any immigrant not in
the pink of condition. But despite this
regulation the hospital is full most OF
the time, and deaths are by no means
infrequent, owing to the greatly weak
ened state of many a poor man or wo-
man on landing If it were not for the
fact that several of the immigrant So
cieties-the Italian especially-look
after their own dead, Uncle Sans

How to Make Pretty Fern Pot.

Take flower pot, paint it outside,
then spread thin layer of putty over
it, and stick little pieces of broken
china close together over the surface,
letting the putty press between each
piece of china. Let it stand until dry;
then take some gold paint and go over
all the putty that shows, and enamel
the inside a pretty color.
Ginger jars also look very pretty
when treated in the same way.
