"Woman's at best contradiction
still!" Such was the opinion of a poet
whose crooked back and sharp tongue
made him no favorite with the ladies
But the sex sometimes juStifies Pope
by the way it blazons its own failings
Women writer's short of copy turn in
stinctively to the weaknesses of wo-
men.
Recent months have been especially
prolific of sermons by women for wom'
en-. The would-be reformers cover a
wide field with their structures. To-day
they accuse woman of lacking interest
in public affairs, and tomorrow of TAX
ing interest in public affairs TO the neg
lect of her home. One critic finds her
stingy of tips" another deplores her
extravaganza in gifts. She does not
put Oh her clothes to good advantage, or
she spends too much time, thought and
money on her clothes. On the one
hand she sweeps the streets with her
skirts, on the other she wears her golf
gown too short for modesty. Some
times she is accused of having no ca
pacity for being "a good fellow" with
husband or brother, and again she is
developing a taste for gambling and
smoking.
Evidently these conclusions cannot
all be correct. Euripides said, Woman
is woman's natural ally" but modern
conditions have made her woman's nat
ural critic If men believed all that
women say about one another. the mar
rage rate would decline. Fortunately,
they take these feminine structures with
a grain of salt; and. moreover, the man
masculine definitely prefers
A creature not too bright or good
For human natures daily food.

George B. Winter, expert tailor for
the British army, arrived at New York
under agreement with the War Depart
ment to revise and modify the cutting
patterns of the United States army

the New York association of tailors has
made formal protest. Acting Secretary

Eighty-two days elapsed from the
time the railroad rate bill reached the
Senate of the United States to the day
when the question was put from the
chair, "Shall the bill pass?a 1t is an
important fact in the political history
Of the country that bin Of such a
character should have been passed al
most unanimously by the Senate. but
that is not the only important thing to
be noted 1t has been common, if not
popular, to fling sneers at the Senate,
as rich mans club, a collection of
plutocrats, an obstruction to legisla-
ton, usurper of more than its share
of power in the government; and these
are not the only criticisms the country
has heard or read. But no one can
have studied the discussion and debate
on the great measure of the session
without finding his prejudice against
the Senate disappearing, or else discov-
ering that a previously high opinion of
the ability of the body was far too low.
At no previous time since the Senate
was organized in 1889 could there have
been found a larger proportion of the
members who could discuss a grave
question like that of railroad legisla-
ton with learning wisdom, lucidity and
| force. No doubt there have been times
when there We're giants in the Senate
| larger than the greatest who now have
seats in the body. But there are giants
to-day, as the next generation will dis
| cover if we do not; and the average
ability of the Senator's who now oc-
| cupy seats has never been surpassed.
If we consider the matter, why should
it not be so? The population is larger
than ever before and the choice wider
1t is not universally true that the
ablest Senators are reelected ana the
less prominent dropped after one term,
but ii is true with exceptions; and
there has never been a time when the
average length of service has been SO
great as it is now.

The ATTRACTIVE Girl Must


Avoid talking loudly, especially in
public.
Avoid making faces when she talks,
and cultivate repose of countenance and
manner.
Avoid blase air, and appear bright
and interested in what other people are
saying.
Avoid ostentatious dressing, or
clothes evidently too elegant for her
station or means.
Avoid slang; it may sound amusing
but it is anything but ladylike, and
other people know it.
Avoid making unkind remarks about
a person not present, as other people
will consider whether she says such
nasty things about them when they are
also out OF the way, says Woman's

The indications are that President
Roosevelt may again be successful in
acting as mediator between the coal
operators and the miners who have
called another strike for April /. II GER
tain concessions are not granted them
President Roosevelt settled the last
strike between the same parties but the
settlement came only after months OF
struggle and suffering, not only among
the miners and their families. but
among the general public. At that
time all the world applauded the inter-
vention on the part Of the president
II the president is successful now In
making peace before the strike begins
and saves the waste Of the clash OF
rival interests he deserves that much
more credit and paves the way for the
settlement Of all future differences by
arbitration.

VICTORY FOR MR.. HADLEY.

The decision just handed down by
the supreme court of Missouri Is that
witnesses in the Standard Oil hearing
at ST. Louis were compelled to answer
the questions put to them by the at
torneys conducting the case. The court
holds that when a foreign corporation
comes into the state to do business 1t
implicitly agrees to obey the laws of
the state. and that they must obey the
laws.
This Is a victory for Attorney Gem
eral Hadley who has been attempting
to prove that the Republic oil company
and other oil companies operating In
Missouri had trust agreement with
the Standard Oil company and were
violating the antitrust laws. This is
the suit where II. II. Rogers and other
Standard Oil magnates refused to an
swer and to avoid an appearance in the
case of John d. Rockefeller went into
hiding
Public sentiment will applaud the
decision and the people will gain new
confidence In the ability Of the courts to
handle the trusts in the violation of the
plain laws on the statute books. II
trust magnates can evade the process
es that bring them into court and when
in court openly defy the law the hope
to legislate against the trusts has re-
ceived a death blow.

PRAISES GAMBLE PERFORMANCE
Company Made Very Pleasing Hit at
Baskerville Last Week.

The Baskerville Echo. in speaking of
the Gamble concert company, which
appeared in that city February Is.
says:
"All the kind words that have been
said of the Gamble Concert Company
were confirmed by the audience at last
nights concert under the management
of Harry W. Thomas. The audience
was fair in size, but the spectators
were very demonstrative in their ap-
plause. as they had every reason to
be. The Gamble party is composed of
three talented musicians and the pro-
gram covered a wide range Of compo-
sition. In fact, it brought to the at
tention of the audience some oddities in
vocal composition, probably introduced
to give variety to the numbers. For in
stance. the old Somersetshire ballad
was a number Of little worth except it's
venerable age.
While some of the numbers We're not
particularly popular, the performers
made a splendid impression. especially
Miss Page, the violiniste. a charming
and piquant performer on her soulful
instrument While she has none Of the
mannerisms of a great violin virtuosO,
her playing is brilliant and artistic. Her
numbers were loudly applauded. and
in one instance she responded to the
tribute to her genius by playing that
old Scotch ballad. annie Laurie" that
seems to divide honors with Home.
Sweet Home" in its plaintiveness and
melody Her numbers We're varied to
a marked degree. but in every style OF
composition she showed equal skill in
execution. playing the numbers with
great expression and feeling.
Mr. Gamble has a highly trained.
cultivated voice. and his enunciation Is
excellent and his tones clear and volu-
minous. He sings very gracefully.
"Mr Lamberson's numbers were par
ticularly interesting. Pianists ordi-
narily attract no great amount Of at
tention. for the reason. probably. that
the piano is familiar instrument and
Mr. Lambersons playing was Of such
brilliant character that he delighted
the audience.
All in all. the concert was praise
worthy to a marked degree. and the
audience was pleased with the enter
tainment. Every expectation was more
than fulfilled and delightful evening
was passed in listening to the trio OF
musicians"
