American Clothes Abroad.

From the New York Mail
The London Tailor and Cutter was not
quite fair to Americans when it sent a
man to Ambassador Reids Fourth of July
reception who reported that Mr.. Bryan's
frock coat was heavy and shapeless COM
pared to Mr. Reds and that the somber
garb of the Americans present was
''hurtful, even offensive" to English tail
ors' taste. There was no difficulty, IL
opined in recognizing the ambassadors
Prince Albert of London manufac-
ture.
The tails of that frock coat of Mr.
Bryan's have been agitated by the typhoon
and all the trade winds of the east; ii has
been packed and unpacked a hundred
times. OF course II seemed heavy and
shapeIess" and of course the other tour
lists present did not look smart as the
Englishmen, or as an ambassador whose
headquarters are not In the saddle but in
Dorchester house. Certain effects are not
possible to a man who Is living out of
steamer trunk and two handbags If the
Americans really looked ''somber' COM
pared to their British cousins, it is partly
because black is the most serviceable color
for tourist clothing. when ii is impractical
Bile to carry many suits with you, but
chiefly because the travelling Americans
had taken too seriously the stories of
British conventionality. They had been
told that no English gentleman would be
seen of an afternoon without a frock coat
on. and SO they turned out in force in
Sunday black. AS matter of fact. the
American man shows more color in his
scarfs, socks and shirts than the English
man. even if his taste in cloth patterns is
less daring.
Inasmuch as the War Department i'm
ported a London tailor to smarter up the
costumes of our enlisted men, perhaps
we should not claim that the American
tailor is better than his British brother.
or the American man more tasty

women carry their clothes better than
their English sisters, and they know how
to stand, Mrs. Trollope to the contrary
notwithstanding. But In England the
American fair persist in wearing stout
walking shoes and picture hats with their
ballroom dresses The American tailor
fits a mans lines better than an English
tailor does and yet. paradoxically enough.

vogue of the moment, and this serenely
regardless of the Indications of your anat-

over and, in his pedestrian way, fit you

In his sartorial traditions the Ameri-

CULTIVATION OF ORCHIDS.
Sixty Species in the Northeastern
United States-Dificnty in Raising.

From the Garuen MagaLhe-
No one really knows how to grow hardy
orchids. There are sixty species In the
northeastern United States and not one of
them will ever become a common garden
plant Most of them are too small, and
all require special conditions Hundreds
OF ueople can make them live for a year or
two. few people have colonies of dozen
plants that have Powered regularly for
five or six years. No one seems to have
naturalIzed them on a large scale.
Unless we can supply those special con-
ditions il is worse than folly to transplant
orchids from the woods. 1t is vandalism.
The orchids are the shyest of our woodland
treasures and the most in danger of eXter-
mination. Even If you buy them from
nurseryman your conscience is not clear,
unless you want them for serious expert
ment Practically all of the hardy orchids
sold are collected from the wild few
are slowly propagated In the nursery. Some
are grown on from the seeding stage 10
towering size. the seedlings being gathered
from the wild None OF them is grown
from seed. Any one who Will, find prac-
teal way of growing hardly orchids from
seed or any other method of propagating
them with a reasonable degree of rapidity
and cheapness win be doing a great sery-
ice to his fellows and himself. Perhaps 1t
might be done in I'VE years at a cost or
500 or less. But the important thing is TO
We find orchids growing wild in three
radically different situations-in woods,
swamps and sphagnum boys. No one has
right TO say that any given species VIII
grow only in woods, that il demands
|. wet feet, or will not grow without sphag
mum. However the important practical
question In every case is, which one of
the three situations does the plant we
want seem to PREFER?
A common swamp is full of nitrogen and
of the organisms of decay; sphagnum
bog is poor in nitrogen and contains no
bacteria. That Is why sunken logs are pre-
served for centuries in peat bogs. and that
Is why certain orchids. heaths and insectiv-
orous plants inhabit sphagnun boys. The
pitcher plants and sundews have to catch
others are supposed to be able 10 get along
with very little nitrogen.
The species that are supposed to prefer
sphagnum as well as wet feet are the
grass pink the Arethusa and the rose po-
gonia The Calypso grows in sphagnum
boys, but In shaded parts. where the moss
cannot live
The species supposed TO prefer wet feet,
merely are the yellow-fringed orchis, the
smaller purpie-fringed orchis, and the la
dies tresses.
The chances are that II will pay to use
sphagnum in cultiyating all the above
named species whether they grow wild in
sphagnum boys or not. You can buy this
moss from florists, nurserymen or seeds
men,
None OF the above species is known to
| demand either sun or shade, but IL you In

be sure that there Is a foot of wet mud

Britain and the Douma.
from the London Speaker.

From the London Speaker.
Any government that interviewed so as TO
embarrass the douma would be betraying
the sentiment of England, which is entirely
on the side OF the douma and It's ambitions.
Motives of policy coincide with motives Of
sentiment We want 10 liberal England
the friend of the liberal Russia which is
struggling to its sirth not merely from the
dictates of sympathy. but also from consid-
erations OF policy We wish to see the great
political idea which Fox brought into Eng
fish politics and Gladstone developed. Of

ment and confidence of free peoples, applied
and DEVELOPED in our new circumstances.

We mak as well own up to the truth, that
the conventional abuse of our climate and

Endowment Assurance.

Endowment assurance is the class of
policy chiefly issued. This fact makes COM
harrison of New Zealand rates with those
in this country somewhat difficult, but they
are lower than those charged by the pri-
vate companies doing business in the coll

pays larger bonuses. but charges higher
premiums. But 1t is much older institu-
ton and has branches in many parts of
the world, while the department, does little
business outside the colony. The death
rate in New Zealand is the lowest of any
country in the world, and this fact of
course, helps to make possible both lower
rates and larger profits. The premiums
originally adopted by the insurance depart
ment were very low and were not framed
to provide bonuses. But even these low
rates produced surpluses from the begin
ming and when II was found necessary to
provide bonuses In order to compete with
the private companies the rates were raised.

of thirty years and payable at death or

years, SIS; in twenty years, SO. Extra
premiums are not charged for women nor
for any occupation other than that of en-

The liquor question is always alive and
extremely vigorous In New Zealand, and
therefore 1t was found advisable to start

policies on the lives of total abstainers.
The accounts of this branch are so kept

THE Lord & Thomas Agency has
grown to be the largest advertis-
S ing agency in America through
the successful development OF small
advertisers.
Today our volume of business =
$4,OO0,OOOOO per year represents the

the average appropriation is less than
$6,000.00 per year.
Some Of our clients who started with
small appropriations are now placing
over $l00,00O.00 yearly with u.s.. and
their businesses have grown and are
continuing to grow in proportion.
The great majority of our clients are
now appropriating less than S3,OOO.OO
