"Men's taste In neckties," says a
New York haberdasher, "is the most
tickle thing imaginable. You can
never be sure of it. It often happens
that scarf pattern which has tre-
mendous run for a year or two is re-
produced after few seasons, and no
cne wants to tuy it. On the other
hand, design you could hardly give
away this year may become the craze
next year. Why; no one has ever been
able to discover. One year men will
reyel in red scaffs and the next will
have nothing but green's or blues or

II haven't the slightest objection to dis

until the Congress session begins, when 1t
can be possible to talk of the prospects OF

people of Washington more sconprehensfye-
~ and intelligently. At present it looks to
me as If there would be less District Ieefs-
lation before the committee this year than
for some time. 1t is never safe to make
any predictions of this sort however at
guch an early date, for something may turn
up later of an important character"
