more than money. You inherited his

Probably no bill before congress has ever received much wider atten. ton and support than that providing for free denaturized alcohol, says a writer of automobile subjects. The necessity of promptly providing q substitute for gasoline for fuel for internal combustion engines, espe- cially for motor cars and farm ma chinery, is becoming more apparent every day, and many strong petitions from manufacturers in this direction have been forwarded to the ways and means committee and to individual congressman favoring the enactment of law for untaxed denaturized al cohol. Both the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers and the Automobile club of America have taken official action cooperating in this movement. The matter is re- ported to be progressing favorably and friends of the free alcohol plan are we'll pleased with the outlook and believe that the bill will be approved by the committee and reported to the house within short time.

 We are glad 10 chronicle there is a tendency to fasten dress skirts at one side of the back, not directly in the middle. The unfastened placket has been as much of worry as the hiatus between skirt and waist, and needed solution by an expert. With the fast eners little to the side there is not so much strain and less liability to open at an inopportune moment.
 Keeping the rat straight is also an- other of the numerous frets that dis turb woman's serenity, and the man. ufacturers have been at work on this problem. A while ago they gave us enormous gilt safety-pins, but we did not think very pluch of them. Recent ly we saw better contrivance and one that can be recommended over the hat pin, which is hard on the hair and, in very windy weather. not to be depend ed on. The one we refer to is a strong smooth hairpin of silver, wider and longer than the ordinary hairpin; 1t fits in silver catch sewed on either side the hat, and is simply pushed through this and into the hair.
 With the present millinery styles the hair must be fiuffed out considerably, smooth. neat tresses do not obtain as few years ago. Loose waves are much better than stiff crinkling, and one should avoid trying to look like mod el in a hair dresser's window. The fashion for the loose arrangement of the hair may not last long; many are exaggerating 1t to such an extent, pil- ing puffs up mountain high; with re- lief we may flee to the fiat mode again.

ST PETERSBURG, March 31.-The Constitutional Democrats at the, sec ond degree elections here carried both Tsarskoe- -Selo and Peterhof. Since the sitting of the council of the emb blre on March 19, at which Premier Witte made an enigmatical statement which was interpreted by many members of the council as virtual declaration that his career as premier was ended and that he would be succeeded by Privy Councillor Kokoysoff, former minister of finance, the premier has not attend ed the sessions of the council. and his continued absence adds color to the ru- mors of his retirement at an early date.
 It is positively stated on good author ity that the premier's resignation, based on the grounds of ill health, is before the emperor.
 The general belief in high quarters is that if Count Witte retires it will not be NJ. Kokovsoff, but M. Goremykin,

Curious tales are told of the Nasal. one of the most warlike of the native African tribes. They have been attack ing the natives in the German protec- torate with great daring, driving oil great herds of cattle with singular ease. Half the attacking force will sweep down on a peaceful village. engaging in a bloody fight with the inhabitants. while the other half will drive away the herds. The Nasal have a wonderful knack in the management of cattle. A German writer says that single Nasal Is often able to coax behind him whole herd of cattle by lightly vhistling and tapping with his spear against his huge shield.

What to Wear and How to WearqF,

Put your clothes on right When you buy a corset have it fitted to your figure. There are fine corsets made to order, but these cost pretty penny, and unless you have a very peculiar form indeed you need not strive or care for this luxury. No matter how much the bodice is draped or bloused, it IS necessary to have the foundation approximately right. ''...
 The bodice here displayed is one adapted to a figure wanting curves, the little velvet bolero kindly hides .defi- ciencies. The gown is high-necked evening dress, such comfort to have among ones stock, and suitable for afternoon wear, too. It is made of old rose cashmere, of very fine quality, the trimming is velvet of darker shade and some ivory-tinted lace. A sheer chemisette is lined wiht chiffon, which does not detract from the airiness and gives body to the deep yoke. In the hair may be worn twist and knot of

Postmaster General Cortelyou, in
 his article on the free seed distribu- tion, does not make any allowance for the clerk hire incidental to handling the seeds while passing through the mails, nor for the loss of revenue from the government sending them out instead of the seed merchants. There are thirty-five million packets sent out in packages of five each, or seven million three hundred thousand packages. These are handled many times, first by, the Washington office, then by the rail- way mail clerks. and then at the of- flee where they are distributed and finally by the carriers. city or rural. As the postmaster general privately says, it is improbable that any ad- ditional clerks or carriers are en- ployed on this account, but never theless it is evident that the pres ence of 100000 pieces of matter must clog the mails and take up time of the clerks and carriers which might otherwise be profitably em- ployed. Estimating that each pack age requires only one minute in the aggregate of the time of a clerk Ur carrier from the time of mailing to delivery it will be seen that the en- tire time of fifty postal employees is occupied with this matter. and at an average salary of one thousand dollars a year this amounts to fifty thousand dollars per annum. It is more likely. however. that the time is longer than a minute-probably five minutes, including that consum- ed in delivery. which means s25e, ,000 in clerk and carrier hire.

It is difficult to say what is the fash ionable shade, there is such variety to choose from; one may. wear . chapeau with half dozen colors riot ing thereon, or one may keep strictly to one tone. We describe two that illustrate this point. One is a very fine black chip hat, a smallish affair round as to brim and with a crown on the cone-shaped order.

Uncertainty regarding monetary conditions and the coal strike exert ed decidedly retarding effect on the stock exchange. says Banker Clews.
 Prospects of the coal crisis are very much mixed. Conditions seem unfa- vorable for the miners. inasmueh as there is large stock of coal on hand. and it is asserted that as a elAss they are already much better off than usual. and that trade ooadi- tions do not warrant a further ad- vance in wages. The dispute, how ever. is still in a critical state, and while the probabilities favor some sort of compromise the outcome is still uncertain.

 where the hat turns up pertly, couple
 of pale pink roses are tucked in among

 might be fussy, but in reality Is not. just suits the fortunate woman whose
 property 1t is. The other hat, the sim

 one of the long sort. The crown is
 put on smoothly over the frame, the
 brim covered with neat folds. Where
 brim and crown join there is a piping of soft-toned blue and red plaid, and at one side near the front large knot of the plaid. The only other trim ming is single quill which stands off perkily at one side with sharp up- ward slant. Every other woman on the street this spring will remind one of an Indian chief, so many feathers and quills are to be worn. In theory 1t is ridiculous, in fact quite smart
 To turn from headgear to gowns, what graceful and becoming princess dresses have been evolved. Every body must have at least one one-piece gown in her wardrobe, and more if possible. The model here shown is excellent style, and by means of the trimming used may be made to suit oI io Af pale-blue crepe de chine made over chite China silk. A flchu arrange ment at the shoulders relieves the se- verity of close-atting waist, and the crossed bands may be placed at any point desired, depending on whether the person is long or short waisted, stout or thin. Hand embroidery adorns the front of the skirt, the shades tady tones of pink and olive; but this elab- oration may be dispensed with or braiding of narrow gallon substituted. The sleeves are mere puffs, very be- coming to the woman with pretty arm.
 Another lovely princess was brought to our notice, one of pavement gray velvet absolutely untrimmed. There was no break from neck to train, but the long lines now considered desira- ble. A square yoke of Irish crochet lace quite deep, relieved the grayness, and passing over the shoulders were suspenders of black velvet fastening with silver buckles. It was charm ing combination-the gray velvet, rich creamy lace, black velvet frightened with the touch of silver, picture in itself. It would be beautiful for wo- man with white hair or for a dark haired woman ot clear pallor.
 This really is a season where one may take an old-fashioned frock and make it over with little trouble and result. Study carefully the lines approved as fashionable, and then go to work; have 8 reasonably short | shoulder, the sleeves mere puffs and standing out pretty we'll at the shoul- der, the waist line at the most becom- ing length for your particular figure, the skirt at least touching, if the dress is for evening.
