Among the chief differences be-
tween Judge Alton B. Parker, the
Democratic nominee for presi-
dent, and President Theodore
Roosevelt is that the former is
safe, sure, sensible and patriotic
while Roosevelt is unsafe,
unstable, uncertain, meteoric
and strenuous. A voter pos
sessed of sound judgment should
have no trouble in knowing how
to vote for president.

AARTINELu FAVORS
WEARING OF CASSOCES
But Local Priests Think Such a Gus
tom Would Not Be Advisable
in America.

Dispatches from Rome state that
Cardinal Martinelli formerly papal
delegate to the United States, has rec
commended 90 the Pope that American
priests and bishops be requested 10 wear
their cassocks and berretta in the
streets. and. in fact, all the time
Such a custom prevails IN Rome AMI
in many cities Of the Old World. and
foreign priests who have visited Amer
lea have found difficulty IN accustom-
ing themselves to seeing bishops and
priests going about in civilian" clothes.
Cardinal Martinelh is of the opiniol
that IL the cassock and berrettum are
worn they will induce more reverence
from laymen and impart more dignity
TO the wearer.
Prominent Catholic clergy1nen in
Washington declare that such a GUS
tom will not be introduced in this
country for many reasons. Conditions
In Europe, and especially In Rome. are
so different from those existing hei q
that many things may be done there
which would be out OF harmony in the
United States. and vice versa.
The wearing Of cassock and berrettum
on the streets there IS something which
has always been known and which, for
that reason. creates no comment On
the contrary. should # be introduced in
this country il would bring priests and
without in any way Affecting the sentt-
ment OF the public regarding their office.
Local clergymcn are confident that no
such request will come from Rome. and
declare the report that one would DO

Special Combs for
the New Couture

While the To-. Col.Iure in it's various
forms is still the approved one with us,
the latest bulletins from Paris announce
the adoption Of a high effect.
This innovation, described as the
French roll, is especially convenient

neck; the couture is then folded or
rolled upward along the back of the
head to the crown. where it terminates
in a pretty knot.
such a style Of dressing requires a
specia comb, and accordingly one has
been invented TO meet the demand.
A few Of these dainty articles have
appeared in American shops, although
We have not so far considered the styie

CHARMING CHAINS AND COMBS

Not only are jewels Of great value

chains. and even belts are studded with
precious stones.
The single pendant is a thing OF the
past. Greater beauty can be gained by
artistic grouping, hence the pendant of
intricate design. The one shown In the
sketch is convertible into a brooch and
is an example OF rare setting.
Not even the women of the East, with
their wonderful array Of hairpins and
combs. can outshine the fashionable
women Of today. Barettes are still
worn at the nape OF the neck to keep
unruly locks in order. The couture Of

set with quantities OF small diamonds
and are dazzling when seen in the hair.
An attractive little necklace is a small
link chain. Little hearts of goId set
with single stone hang from 1t. A set
of amber combs are ornamented by a
design In gold and a simple setting Of
brilliants- These. though rich, are not
gaudy, and one is not likely to tire of
them.
Metal belts are worn as never before.
An unusual one has three wide-hinged
medallions covering the whole back.
The heavy chain which comes to the
front is finished by two fresh water
pearls of rare size and luster. The con-
trast of the delicate pearls and heavy
silver is a most fetchipg one.

COMMISSIONERS APPROVE
BELTS RECOMME NDATIOR

The District Commissioners have ap-
proved the recommendation OF Fire
Chief William r. Belt, that an addt-
tional sum Of $500 be asked for i'm the
general deficiency bill to pay for fur
niture and fixtures for the truck house
located In the southeast section OF the
city.
Chief Belt explained that the original
appropriation for the house was So, 900,
out OF which sum 81 800 was paid in
acquiring certain land for the site of
the building. After the expense OF
erecting the house there remains a bal
ance of only SZ75.S9 of the appropriation.
Therefore $500 more will be needed to
properly equip the esta blishment.
