Jewish Emancipa-
ton in Russia

On the initiative Of the premier, M.
Stolypin, the Jewish question has taken
a step forward, inasmuch as the minis
ter has furnished evidence Of his liberal
intentions by giving instructions to the
Department for General Affairs of the
Ministry of the Interior to lay before
him the draft of Jewish measure, con-
ceived in liberal terms. What form this
draft will take it is difficult to say as
all the liberal intentions Of Count Witte
in this direction were always rendered
nugatory by the antagonism of court
circles, but it is to be expected that this
draft, which is to be laid before the
forthcoming Duma, will meet with a
better fate. NJ. Stoylpin takes up the
only correct standpoint that the Jewish
question must be settled as quickly in
placing the Jews upon a footing of
equality with the rest Of the population
M. StOlypin believes that the edge may
be taken off the Jewish question by abro-
eating, or, rather, by extending. the Pale
Of Settlement as was done to a limited
extent under Ulehve's regime. tenn
porary alienation of the terrible eco
nomic sufferings Of the Jewish prole-
tariat would be brought about. But the
Jewish question in Russia would never
be permanently solved by such a meas
ure. Moreover, it may be stated, with a
fair amount of certainty, that tbe forth
coming Duma would extend the pro-
posed measure to complete emancipation
Of the Jews, though there is no doubt
that the Council of Ministers will en-
deavor to retain a number of restric-
tions

wherever he has been given even linn

the Jew has blossomed out into the
nOblest forms, as poet, thinker, musl-
clan, ethical teacher, and social re-
former; when | recall the names of
such men of the last centuries as Mend
elssohn and Spinoza, men whose vast in
tellectual productions were overtowered
by the lowly spiritual influence they eX-
ercised on the greatest of their contem-
poraries; when 1 consider the mighty
and almost inconceivable hiatus, which
the subtraction Of the Jew and his in
tellectual and spiritual influence would
leave in the life of the world, [ am filled
with astonishment that the entire civil
lied world is not dominated by the con-
sciousness Of the magnitude Of the debt
which it owes to the Jewish race!
"And I am yet more astonished when

self
''F'or ages the Jew, prosecuted ana
oppressed, allowed no social or political
right, incapable in many countries OF
holding real property and liable in all
to have it torn from him, was driven to
finance and the dealing in money as the
one path open to him; and he was bound
to bend all his energies to the acquiring
of wealth; not only because no other
paths for expending his intellectual
powers were open to him, but because
only by the possession of wealth could he
hope to buy breathing space for himself
or for his people. To-day the Jew ex-

 These may be of tapestry framed in molding or else they may be part of a picture serieNSto be obtained at any up to date p4peFhanger's.
 Really these wall paper picture sets are quite the5 latest craze. They H. lustrate all kinds of things from subjects with nymphs or birds.
 The most artistic of all, however, are those which represent marine views, and the blue of the waves is repeated in the blue and white of fancy china plates. which in turn are set off by the dark polished oak and mahog- any furniture.
 Certainly the original dining room of today is 8 great relief from the somber or stiffly furnished room of even our mothers time.
 American women are taking to transformations. (Preserve us)
 Tn dear old London, don't you know, you fairly split your hair having it marceled every day (not to speak of the fact that often the wave entirely disappears before you reach home), So, you see, one can hardly blame English women for pining over their own abused tresses a ravishingly curl ed artificial front which. like the poor, is always with them. and. dear me. what a comfort ft is!

 He seems, only to have one Idea, and that is to make a certain size sleeve, with a plaiRxcnff, and certain. Kind of plain. servfceable collar, with plain uncompromising fastening. And vet the imported. fur models show the most ravIshing1a coquettish modes. Everything seems to be incrusted with lace Jeweled buckles and fancy bands of embroidery until the severest of furs become the smost frivolous Seal especially looses all it's plain appear ance and is transformed into the smartest little pony coats and boleros.
 But your natives furrier looks at these with unseeing eyes and still in- sists that he sews skins to make dura- bIs garments and that he cannot em- bellish them, as though they were cloth.
 Toady was out automobiling with a woman who wore the sweetest mink coat I have ever seen-
 Needless to say, 1t came from Paris. In shape it was of the pony variety, reaching to- about the hips. Richly embroidered revers and cuffs of green and silver set off the brown of the fur, and inside, of the single breasted effect there was an inner vest of pret- ty colored cloth also embroidered in green and gold.
 With this she wore a close toque Of mink trimmed with twists of green velvet and pale pink rsses. Her huff was an excessively large one, having cuff attachments to protect the arms.
 IL Is such a blessing nowadays that a woman may go to a first class de- partment store, pick out an eminently correct hat shape, beautifully made, and then go to a nearby counter and select from every variety of trim ming just what she prefers The whole thing only takes five minutes to put together and one saves easily from s1O to; $15 on hat
 For instance, the other day In a very smart shopt saw a woman pur- chase a delightful evening hat shape made of pale pink tulle, bordered with pink panne velvet. For this she paid S5.50. At the feather counter she pur- chased a large bunch of the uncurled ostrich plume which are the vogue just now, for $7. These were pink, of the shade of the hat. A the velvet counter she purchased a yard of two dollar panne velvet of a slightly deeper shade, and at the yelling counter she invested in three yards Of pale pink malines at twenty-five cents yard.
 The pink feather arrangement was to go a little to one side, the pink
