trimmed with roses in the loveliest pas
tel shades. She seemed a dollhouse flower
by some accident finding itself out in
the snow.
The hat worn by this fortunate being
was of the shape illustrated in one OF
the accompanying pictures, OF medium
size, dented here and there, fitting close
ly at the back. And that appears to be
one of the features of this seasons hats,
that the brim extended down low and
close over the locks at the back. This
gives a jaunty look and decided bit OF
style.
Hats are of varied sizes, but neither the
cartwheel nor the infnitesimal is no
ticed. One is safe in selecting middle
ground, and can have as many bends in
her hat as fancy desires and her own
style allows. The upturned sailor, with
either soft or stiff crown, is pretty and
youthful. One attractive design is Of
brown beaver with folds and rosettes OF
pink satin To show that trimmings do
not always match the hat, we speak OF
good model of black satin decked with
pompons and ends of shaded green vel
vet ribbon, but this should be worn with
a dress of black and green to give the
right fashion. A hat Of nasturt1um red
can be worn with different costumes and
is advancing in favor. For those that
like quiet tones we suggest a gray felt
trimmed with gray scarf and a plume
shading from white to gray.

CHURCH PERSONALS.

Bishop William T. Manning, Of the
recently created diocese Of Harrisburg,
will be one of the youngest, If not the
youngest, of the Protestant Episcopal
bishops.
Mgr. Seraf1ni is to be made a cardinal
of Mexico, in appreciation of his latest
work in bringing about harmony and
improving the discipline of the churches
in that country.
Rev Father Albert Nechauquet COM
pleted his four years course in the
propaganda at Rome this year. He said
his first mass in August in Oklahoma
City, and is now assistant pastor at Mus
kogee, l. T. He is full-blooded Potto-
watomie and the first Indian priest.
Washington, D. c., who has just been
accorded the honor of being elected
chairman of the house Of deputies of the
Protestant Episcopal church, for almost
40 years has been one Of the most prom
inent clergymen of his denomination.
In connection with the conservation
of Bishop Spalding 1t is OF interest to
note that he was born at Erie, Pa, when
Ais father was rector of the parish which
he is now himself about to leave, and
that a part of the present district of
Salt Lake was once included in the
jurisdiction OF his father as bishop of
Colorado.
DR.. Mcnamara, M. P, said at cler-
zeal conference the other evening that
if the clergymen of London were to
spend a week under the pre- sent hous-
ing conditions Of the poorer classes they
would return to their homes the most
violent set Of socialists that ever
breathed, and their first act would be a
demonstration in Hyde Park.

of outdoor exercise than her lazy Amer
lean cousin, looks well to the costume
she is to wear when engaged in this win
ter sport.
There is nothing more picturesque
than good woman skater, and careful
ly studied skating costume adds not in
considerably to the picture. The skirt,
of course, should be short, practically
and jauntily SO, and the shoes, prac-
tically, and if possible, jauntily stout.
Materials and cut of skirt may be Sc
lected from much variety, but ever in
mind should be kept the use to which
the costume is to be devoted, the sur
roundings amidst which it is to be worn.
A vivid red, even scarlet, is good for
those that can wear anything so pro-
nounced, for here if ever bright hues can
be worn without offending. Rough ma
terial should be chosen if this gay color
is decided upon, and the fur to give the
desirable touch, we think, would be a
white one. A hat of furry red beaver
would go well with this costume. In de-
Tense Of the gay skating frock, we call
to attention the fact that fady pastel
tones are quite out of place for skating;
they are cold tones, and make the wearer
look frozen.
The French fancy for a skating cos
tune is corduroy of myrtle green
trimmed with tan suede; and this GER
tainIy is a very chic creation. The
French model has a plain gored skirt
strapped with corduroy and ornamented
with buttons Of the tan suede. The
short coat has vest of the suede, and
belt of this passes through a plat in the
back of the coat. Reveres of suede fold
back, and can be made to close and fas
ten at the desire of the wearer. The
shirtwaist may be Of cream silk and
wool, or one of light shade of tan
would be very pretty. A green tie, a
green beaver hat, soft and trimmed with
a bit of bronze, make the finishing
touches to this suit.
An English leader Of fashion suggests
for the skating party costume of white
or cream Zibeline, but this is not practi-
cal for average needs; and then, too
there are so many colored goods that
fulfill requirements. If one prefer a
light costume, why not select gray
trimmed with chinchilla? This can be
made elaborate. if that is wanted, by
having the skirt of cloth, the short
bolero or jacket of velvet with waist
coat of gray suede and shirt front and
stock of some cream f1uffiness.
What is known as fur pushes are worn
for skating costumes abroad. and
though an expensive material they are
durable and stand the wear and tear
that one that loves the sport is bound
to give her costume great deal of. Vel
veteens make economical skating frocks
and come in the colors suitable for pie

more dressy wear For skating, the pref
erence is given to laced shoes, as these
may be adjusted to fit the ankle. The
bulldog toe is entirely OUT and the ath-
letic girl must now content herself with
moderation, should not advertise the
fact that she is a devotee of pastimes
once relegated to men.
Brown furs being the furs OF the sea-
son, and brown continuing the fashion
able shade generally, the skating cos
tune may be designed in harmony OF
brown, though brown and black are
bit colorless Still for the girl with
chestnut hair and golden-brown eyes
there could be nothing prettier than an
all-brown costume having suggestions
of gold here and there. But be careful
not to use enough gilt to make tawdry
effect. A bit of Persian embroidery
would tighten up such costume, and if
used sparingly not detract from the sim
plicity that should mark the suit for
skating.

turesque demands. Leather, now in
use for about everything save lingerie,
is also liked for outdoor demands, and
not only the huntress, but also the
skater, is using the leather costume.
Petticoats should be trim and SUIT

silk frills are coquettishly pretty, they

However, there are many that skate a

The Wheat CroD.

In this country, which contains the
largest wheat producing section of the
world, it is fact borne out by govern
ment statisticians that less wheat is
planted every year of late. The farmer
turns to more profitable and less hazard
GUS crops. Reports to Washington spe-
city many sections where other crops
have been substituted for wheat, not
with the idea of giving the land chance,
but with the intention of raising wheat
no more. The wheat crop of this coun-
try, it is said, could be quadrupled, but
the farmer must be paid for it if this is
to be done. He can make more money
out of other crops and run less risk from
the elements.-Oshkosh Northwestern.

A constantly increasing number of

Peruna occupies a unique position in
medical science. 1t is the only internal

medical profession to-day. Catarrh, as
everyone will admit, is the cause Of one

Courage of the
Woman
BY KocoRo TAKAHIRA. japanese Minister to the United States

W THING that has impressed me deeply is the daring of the
American woman. The courage-her enemy might al
most saw recklessness-with which she drives home her
- conviction TO ITS LOGICAL END is superb. A
statesman in the thick of affairs often thinks of too many
things She thinks of one; she has no eyes for anything else. And
when she enters upon a battle she knows of no such convenience as
compromise. Nothing short of a COMPLETE VICTORY is likely
to please Her Grace.
There are several who would have us believe that a sentiment such
as friendship is an empty sound, especially in international affairs. l
fear that [ am in the happy land of illusion in the estimation of them.
Whenever I think of the absolute unselhshness of the American
friendship for us [ cannot restrain myself from turning over in my
mind the work which has been accomplished by THE ENLlGHT-
ENED WOMANHOOD of America. May it not be true that this
peculiar feature of our friendship, so foreign to the self interest basis
of diplomacy, has had its root in the work of the American woman,
who is not always the best hand to count how much superior is the
value of steel exports to Japan over SO airy a substance Is an interna-
tional friendship? The sympathy of the American woman is not a
sympathy originated merely from the consideration of self interest or
any weakness of womanhood.
1T IS BASED UPON THE SUBSTANTIAL FOUNDATION OF
STRONG RELIGIOUS FAITH, HIGH EDUCATION AND GOOD JUDO
MENT.
