Despite the very young mans nonchal-
ance regarding matters OF dress, Dame
Fashion continues TO busy itself concern
ing the cut and design of what he is TO
wear. It DEGREES that the sailor suit is
and shall be the most important standby
of his wardrobe, and to this ultimatum
fortunately his honor agrees, as there
are no fuss and feathers TO interfere with
his all-important doings. In this matter
it is often we'll 10 follow the boys in
clnations, his not over abundant thought
on the subject is usually found TO be for
suitability, comfort and unobtrusiveness,
which. on the whole, fills the bill" with
the added fundamental thought OF beauty
whenever possible. An excellent suit OF
dark blue was made after this fashion,
trimmed with white braid with emblems in
white and red. White linen or serge would
also prove appropriate for any occasion.

The word shirt waist does not imply =
garment OF severe plainness, the term
woulG suggest, but more often an elaborate
creation OF tucks and gathers. For gem
eral wear the well dressed woman does
not desire elaboration or business, but
rather would have her blouses made indi-
vidual by trim stitchery or neat trimming
straps Here is shown a blouse quite
ideal in its air Of quality and refinement.
Tucks give lengthenIng lines in front and
back, while the real charm of the waist
lies in the fanciful applied yoke. This
buttons TO one side of the front with
jaunty effect and a button finishes each
side tab. Linen is excellent for developing
the waist while the model is especially
well adapted TO a light weight broadcloth
or serge. The home dressmaker will find
the pattern quite free from difficulties.

NOS. 6367-636S-A SMART CLOTH GOWN.
The old-fashioned idea that the best gown
the silk gown has long since been
forgotten, and now we see gowns of much
more style and costliness developed in
cloth. The shops are full OF exquisite tex
lures, and the women OF fashion will select
monotones of becoming shades for her new
frocks The gown shown is one OF rare
good style and suitable 20 development
in French cashmere, drap dete. Henrietta
or lady's cloth. The model might serve as
a reception gown in one OF the light pastel
shades OF cloth or silk. The skirt is the new
lS-sored one with pleats stitched in tuck ef-
feet 1t fits smoothly over the hips, and
flares with infinite grace at the bottom. The
deep collar continued by trimming straps TO
the waist line is very stunning. The yoke
may be made of italian lace and the cuffs
OF a deeper tone of velvet to match the
girdle. A frill OF lace may finish the
sleeves or deep tight cum of the yoke
material Large cut steel or silver filigree
buttons or medallions OF lace may adorn
the trimming straps. In the medium size
the blouse demands two and a half yards
and the skirt six yards of finch material.
Two patterns: 6367-7 sizes 80 to A. inches

The price OF these patterns is 20 cents,
but either will be sent upon receipt of 10

EXPENSES ARE DOUBLED

Modern charity is to be judged. not
by the ratio between expenses and re-
lief. but by the ratio between ex-enses
and work accomplished, with an aDpre-
citation Of the fact that the work is
large, varied. and not confined TO the
mere giving of aims"
This statement IS made in the re-
Gently published annual report OF the
Associated Charities, which brings out
Enthusiastically and clearly the change
which has taken place in this com
munity's conception of charity. since the
time when $4,000 or $4,000 were dis
oursed here In single season with the
result of pauperizing hundreds of ap-
plicsnts"
Last year, as the report states, "the
general fund OF the Associated Chari-
ties was invested IN the prevention OF
pauperism and distress, in the develop
ment Of better relations between needy
and resoureeful people. and in the
quickening of wholesome social spirit
throughout the entire community
, The giving 81 groceries, fuel. and
clothing Is no longer considered the
main purpose OF the Associated Chari-
ties. although such material aid was
administered e,46S times last year. The
report says: The ideal of the charity
organization movement is TO steadily
decrease the amount OF food and fuel
which must be given, by constantly
developing among the needy the re-
sources. opportunities, and ambitions
for self help"

MORALES LEADING
FIRST BIG FIGHT

he will lead them in a regular Donny-
brook fair Of time with the HoraciStas.
Meanwhile eX-President Jimlnez, al
Ponce, Porto Rico, and ex-President
Wos Gill, at Santiago de Cuba, are
looking for chance TO come into this
game. Whether the United States will
support Morales as an insurgent against
the Morales government remains to be
seen.
Next to Horacio Vasquez, Morales Is
the biggest and strongest man on the
island. He is an octoroon, about thirty
five years old, OF medium height. fat.
but active, and full OF pluck. Morales
was educated by the Jesuits for the
priesthood and for some time officiated
as priest. But he deserted 10 marry
his present wife, a beautiful woman;
mixed in politics, and became equally
prominent IN battle and intrigue.
Roosevelt's Argument
Now that the revolution is on it is
well 10 remember that armies in Santo
Domingo rarely run over zoo men; the
soldiers are barefooted dwarfs. uni
formed in blue denim, and armed with
wornout Remington rifles with French
sword bayouets. the whole just as high
as the soldiers head. There are no
roads. no schools. and no tangible
property to amount to anything
Now abe chief argument President
Roosevelt presented for his arrange
ment. under which Americans collected
DOMINICAN customs, turning over 45 per
cent to the island government, and the
rest to foreign creditors. was that this
would insure peaceful conditions on the
island and guard against such foreign
Intervention as might provoke Monroe
Doctrine controversies. But the Senate
has depended upon SantO Domingo as
the second string 10 its bow in its fight
with President Roosevelt
II the Roosevelt arrangement backed
by all the naval force assembled off
Santo Domingo, could not hold Morales
in power and prevent a revolution. the
Administration argument loses much
force. The Senate will hail with glee
the spectacle OF Morales sprinting for
the tall timbers TO take refuge in the
arms OF the faction that has been most
bitterly anti-American.

Morales skipped to escape the sea wall

The yearly expenses of the Associated
Charities have been doubled since 1900,
but The work accomplished has increas-

not imply that the number of those
depending upon charity has increased,
for the lines of activity of the Associat-
ed Charities have radiated in many new
directions
The sums spent by the Citizens Relief
Association for food, fuel. and clothing
was only s.. 709.72 in 1905, as compared
with SS 40 a in 1900. an actual reduction
OF nearly $3.50 ir spite of a large increase
in the number of cases handled In 1900

work, which now comprises a large part
OF the charitable activities, did not exist

'Provident Stamp Savings System" was

constructive work which existed in 1900.
Even In this department a very great
development has taken place for only
