Bathroom furni4hings made IN elaoo-
rate period decorations Of the Louises
and in colonial styles are IN great de-
mand this fall especially In the homes
of the smart set, where simple fittings
are no longer considered good taste
These rooms are not complete now m
less they are fitted with a dressing stool
and a slipper chair OF white celluloid to
harmonize with the surroundings, sEhile
the number of the accessories is in
creased by several new pieces.
Despite these decorative furnishings,
the ideal bathroom should have nothing

weight at a certain standard, but also
to ascertain the condition OF their
health. A daily record IS kept by many
stout women, who write the number or
pounds opposite the date and a few re-
marks about general health after the
bath IN a white leather book, that is
kept on the scales.
Tubs in French Designs.
Bath tubs this season are built into
one corner OF the room and are Of
solid glazed porcelain. They are made
after patterns OF the Louis XIV. XIV.
and XVI periods and look as If they
had been hewn from marble. little like
those set up on legs with which we have
long been familiar. They are I'VE and
half feet long. about eighteen inches
deep and about two feet wide at the
bottom. Because they are made solid
from the floor up they are considered
the most hygienio tub used. because
there are no legs or corners around
which dust or dirt can gather

carry out the period ideas than in any
of the other furnishings. and these.

Persian Trimmings.

said a manufacturer: 1T IS true that
most OF the Persian trimmings are made
IN this country. yet we are willing 10
give credit 10 the Orientals for origin
atty and for design We cannot invent
ANYTHING which comes up 10 their color
scheme. prepared apparently with such
carelessness. yet really so deliberately
and painstaklngiy. We who get up the
sfuhs for women are only too happy to
have the lovely Persian materials upon
whizn 10 draw for designs and color
schemes.
I'VE are making more Persian bands
than ever this year. Though they bear
various names they are easily traceabts
70 Persian designs. We have buttons
this season and many other things
which have the touch Of Orientalism
upon them. But IN our case we combine
them with durability and utility. They
are not fraiI and they can be easily
cleaned. which is a great thing IN their
favor"

FEW AWARE OF PRESENCE
Will Spend Day on His Illinois Farm
Thence to Attend Exercises of
His Own Alma Mater.

Eve are just going back east after
a delightful time at the commencement
exercises of the University of Iowa,
said Vice President Fairbanks. who
was in Rock Island from 1890 until
1880 this afternoon. I'VE had a de-
lightful time there and I wish we could
have staid longer, but l want to get
back TO Delaware, Ohio, where we will
attend the exercises OF my own alma

Day On the Farm.
The vice president. who is accom-
panied by Mrs. Fairbanks and his pri-
vate secretary. Russell King. will spend
day on his farm near Mansfield. Ill,
where he will go from Peoria. From
there he goes east. He went through
here at an early hour yesterday morn
ing. but il was unknown to any but the
railroad officials. Upon his return trip
Col. c. r. Nutting was invited to board
his train at Davenport. and is accom-
panying them to Peoria. They are
travelling. in the private car of II. L.
Nudge. second vice president of the
Rock Island system.
Few See Fairbanks.
Very few people were aware that
the vice president of the United States
was in the city, and there was only the
usual number about the Rock Island
station when the train arrived from
the west. He was not troubled by any
visitors except newspaper representa-
tives, so he gave literally of his time
to them and talked freely. His trip
to the coast, he says. was most de-
lightful one, and he is very enthusiastic
in his conversation with reference to
the far west.
Now somebody is left behind" said
the vice president as he observed the
| flagman pulling the cord in the coach
ahead just after the train started to
pull away from the station. The train
stopped. and hurrying along came a
party of young ladies.
Now there is human nature" he
said as the prospective passenger
stopped to kiss her friends, notwith-
standing the fact that the train they
had stopped was waiting for her to
get aboard We'll. that is all right"
| he continued. as the train started
again on its journey. ''let the girls kiss
each other all they want to-"
The vice president delivered the
principal address at the Iowa univer-
sity exercises.

RUSSIAN JEWS GIVEN FAvoRs.

St. Petersburg, Dec. 31-President
Roosevelt s remarks concerning the
abuse of Jews in Russia did not fall en-
tirely on deaf ears The czar has Or
dered that few more Russian Jews are
to be admitted to the universities. The
percentage of Jewish students may be
raised in St. Petersburg from three to
three and one-half per cent Of the ortho-
dox scholars; in Kieff, Warsaw and
Odessa from ten to fifteen per cent; in
kasan, Charhow, Tomsk and Dorpat
from five to seven per cent.
Besides the tax on Jewish drrlmmers
will be remitted in the new year, but the
order that they must never visit place
where the czar breathes still stands This
means that they are excluded from all

the purpose. 1t appeals to the general
public, and as such is useful and de-
serves success. For the rabbis, for Jew
ish educators, and for the educated lay
man, a special assembly, somewhat like
the Catholic summer school at Platts-
burg, New York, is the stringent neces-
sity. The benefits to be derived from
such a summer school are manifold. 1t
may come to pass that editors of make
shift Jewish journals will hesitate before
making ex-cathedra statements. Rab-
binical orators will cease addressing
themselves to the 'grandstand" and
Zionist radicals will find it intellectually
dishonest to remain in reform pulpits.
The synod itself, veritable bogie to
some of our rabbis, will be a natural evo-
luton of the summer school. Legisla-
tion will be no longer necessary

home A visit to the largest ghetto in
the Rocky Mountain region, where the
writer happened to stray into a syna-
gogue on fast day, specially marked
by the visit of renowned maggid, con-
vinced him that in spite of the sitting
air and squalid surroundings, the lack
of decorum and order, there was some

essence Of religion-which could not
help uplifting him even, who was for
years a stranger to the synagogue. What
reform needs is little Of this spirit, and
it authoritative regulation and a return
to ceremonialism can produce it, the
duty is clear. Judaism must not degen-
crate into stereotyped and cold unitar-
ianism, where sentiment is degenerated
into sentimentalism (rabbinical rhetoric
and the ilze) and dignifed feeling into
mortuary elocution.

Craze

Jewish press to advertise the fact that
the Jews Of the United States are some
times successful aspirants for elective Of
fees, from constable to United States
senatorship. The country has been del:
uged Of late with the biographies of these
Jewish statesmen. A more modest atti-
tude, unaccompanied by trumpet calls
and Journalistic eulogiums, were proper.
The hysterical acclaim with which our
political equality is heralded is tacit
admission that in this country, too, Ju-
daism is curse and something which
must be lived down. It is direct bid
for anti-semitism. If we are shocked at

the highest honors in the invitation tournament OF
the Apawanis Club, and finally won the tourna-

Proa of Seabright. in the final round for the first
cup.
Never before has there been much high class
golf played over the course in single week. Boyle
was beaten repeatedly. and even par was beaten
by Travers and Seely. Single holes made in
one and two strokes under par and when a first
class player took more than bogie for a hole it
caused general amazement.
Travers equalled the phenomenal amateur record
OF the course-7S-made by Ffndlay s Douglas two
years ago He also won the best prize IN the
qualifying round. Ee would have won the best
gross score prize in the handicap yesterday, but
when he had the leading trophy he drove a
ball into the long grass from the seventeenth tee
