SAUK CENTRE, MINI, Oct. 6, 'O7.
Editor Herald: Aware of the re-
fining and educational power Of the
drama, but alarmed at its very COM
mon degradation at the present time,
I invite movement for its regenera-
ton here on our home stage:
l. By refusing to patronize any
play that offends against mortality.
2. By not failing to protest against
indecent costumes as we'll as against
Objectionable interludes of otherwise
excellent plays.
3. By exerting our influence with
the municipal authorities to enforce
the laws or cause them to be enacted
where they have not been passed,
against improper exhibitions either
on the stage itself or by mechanical
devices, and especially to enforce laws
forbidding the admission of children
into theaters unattended by parents
or guardians.
4. By denouncing all public adj
vertisements or posters which tend to
corrupt public morals and by eXercis-
ing a due care in safeguarding our
stage and all publications from any
witticism, caricature or statement
that might in any way reflect upon
or be offensive to the nationality or
creed of any of our fellow citizens.

The Empress Dowager received a
memorial advising the suppression of
the cigarette. She evidently did not
know the pleasures or dangers of the
cigarette, and as she did not scent
any anti-dynastic trick she called in
the palace doctor, who supported the
memorial.
Immediately the Empress ordered
that all the cigarettes in the palace
be collected and thrown into the lake.

ECONOMY IN DRESS
WELL-DEFlNED PLAN is FIRST
REQUISITE.
With This II Is Quite Possible to Be
Smartly Gowned on All Occa-
sions at Comp
Small Expense.

The woman who wants to dress
well and modishly on a moderate al
ioWance must follow a well-defned
plan. She should first take account of
the present articles in her wardrobe,
then decide on what she will need to
enable her to look we'll turned out on
all occasions for the coming season.
Her first list will be apt to be far too
long and costly for her resources, but
by cutting off nonessentials and man
aging for combinations that will fit in
with her several gowns or suits, con-
siderable variety of effect will be pos
sible with a very limited number of
Independent toilets. ...
This cutting of the coat to suit
the cloth" need not result in any ap-
parent economy; on the contrary, it
often produces distinct gain in style
and individuality, but the woman who
practices it must be able to say mo"
to her inclinations when their indul-
gence clashes with her plan, and she
must understand her limitations. Her
color range should be quite limited
and, above all, becoming and suited
to the demands of her environment.
She cannot afford to indulge in freak
fashions or in extremes of any sort,
but she should take advantage of
every bit OF up-to-date modishness in

Trade at Home,

Patronage Of the big mail order
houses is founded largely on short
sightedncss. In one way it is akin to
patronage of the get-rich-quick
schemes. The buyer believes he is
getting something for his money that
is really not given, and fails to realize
either where his money goes Or what
he gets for it.
No one would think of telephoning
20 furniture store and asking the
dealer to send up dozen dining room
chairs, without having previously ex-
amined the chairs, or of ordering a
dress or pair of shoes, or a stove in
this way Yet that is practically
what the patron of the mail order
house does. He orders by mail without
having seen the goods or having any
idea OF their appearance or character.
He is taking a long chance. Two
things on which he has to base his
conception of the articles ordered is a
description in the catalogue and the
cut given there. In other words. the
attractiveness of the offer made de-
ponds on the promises of the firm and
the engraver's art. 1t is possible to
make very creditable cut from a
fimsy and worthless model 1t is
possible to describe an atrocity in
way that makes it appear most desir-
able. Incidentally it seems to be al
ways possible to find some one who
will accept the promise and cut at
their face value, without properly dis
counting them, and on the credibility
of these people the mail order bust
ness thrives. A little investigation
and comparison will convince the
average person that his money will go
further and yield greater returns if
invested right here in Beverly, despite
the fictitious values offered by the
outside houses. But the articles sold
by the mail order houses must be
compared as they really are, and not
as they are reputed to be in the cata-
logues.-Beverly (Mass) Times.

Patronizinq Home PEOPLE.

An exchange says that war has been
declared on the great catalogue
houses of Chicago and other cities
by the 500 retail merchants of the
west. In one of the most striking eco
nomic movements this country has
ever known the small dealers are
fighting, they say, for their lives. The
mammoth institutions, employing
thousands of workers, doing their
business entirely through the medium
of their bulky catalogues. spending
no money in the communities whence
they derive annually millions of dol
lars of patronage, are forcing in
creasing numbers of home merchants
to the wall and so their opponents
claim, are making commercial
graveyards of once prosperous towns"
People living in country towns ought
to get wise and trade at home.-Phil-
adelphia Episcopal Recorder.

EARLY RISING is CONDEMNED.
A Habit Which May Severely Tax the
Vital Powers.

There Is no adequate support for
the impression that the early morning
hours are ia an. way more wholesome
or healthy than later periods Of the
day. Except in summer time they
are apt to be damp. foggy, chilly and
among the least desirable hours of
daylight. 1t is quite true that during
the summer there is sense of exhil.
aration about being abroad in these
early morning hours. but this evapo.
rates with the dew and is apt to be
succeeded by corresponding depres-
sion and loss of working power later
IN the day. l have been observing nv
friends and patients for the past 20
years in this respect, and am inclined
10 the opinion that not a little of the
depression and nervousness which
commonly develop in hot weather is
que to excessive exposure to light.
from habits of early rising. Inherited
from agricultural ancestors NOT conn.
teracted by three to four hours res,
III darkened rooms in the middle of
the day.
secondly, that the exhilaration ex.
perienced during the early morning
hours is an expensive luxury which
mas to be paid for later in the day.
In TACT, have found that as a general
rule, to put it very roughly, the bust
ness or professional man who rises
an hour before 7:30 or 8. goes to
ped, or loses his working power
an hour and half earlier in the
evening. Each individual has in
the beginning of his day about so
much working power stored up in his
brain and muscle cells. If he uses
this up with great rapidity in the
early morning hours he naturally ex.
hausts his stock the sooner in the
afternoon.
1t is largely matter of when a
man wishes to be at his best. If his
occupation is of such a character that
ne can clear off the brunt of his
work in the early morning hours, then
let him rise early. If on the other
hand he requires full vigor and readi.
ness OF mind and body in the latter
part OF the day, or at night, then
ne must rise later to get it. Even
in pure muscle work it is false econ.
omy to work too long hours.-Amer.

Washington.--In the presence Of
President and Mrs. Roosevelt, the

the justices of the supreme court anS
their wives, several senators, repre-

guests, Miss Edith Root on Wednesday
became the wife of Ulysses Simpson
Grant Sd, Lieutenant United States

The wedding was generally recog-
nized at the capital as being the sec
ond in social and official importance
that has taken place during the Roose-
welt administration, there being only
less interest in the marriage than in
that which centered about the mar
riage of Miss Roosevelt to Mr.. Long
worth.
The bride is the only daughter of
Secretary of State and Mrs. Elihu
Root, while the groom, as everyone
knows from his name, is the grandson
of General Grant, his father being

grays and fawns and in cream and
white 1t is strange that, despite the
purple craze, comparatively little is
shown in this tint in fashionable arm
wear. Where one is faithful to the
one-color scheme to the minutest de-
tail, of course, the gloves follow the
color scheme of the gown, and the eff
feet is very pretty.
Among the serviceable gloves for
street and walking use are wash leath-
er mousquetaires, with pinked edges.
Far more long than short gloves are
shown this season, and some in coffee
brown and copper are worthy of men,
ton on account of their dainty color
ing. These are after the mousquetaire
models, with elastics or wrist straps
in lieu of buttons.

The vogue of the short skirt Las &
great deal to do with the strong de-
mand for attractive footwear this sea-
son.
Though the shoes and hosiery
shown for the long skirt are perhaps
more elaborate than they have been
for seasons, yet the woman in the
short skirt is more particular about
having her footwear faultless.
A surprising number of smartly
gowned women are displaying high
French heels and sheer silken hose
with gowns of ankle length, while 9TH
ers prefer the Cuban heel and hose
a trifie more substantial.
Low shoes will be worn as long as
the weather permits, and, from one
extreme to the other, the high boot
will take it's place.
Suede boots having Is buttons are
shown and are one of the sensational
innovations for winter.
Judging from the display in the GUS
tom shoemakers' windows the en-
tremely high shoe will be the fancied
style during the winter season.

army. Lieutenant Grant is nephew
of Mrs. Potter Palmer of Chicago.
, The ceremony was performed by
Rev. DR.. Stryker of Hamilton college,
who was for several years the pastor
of the Fourth Presbyterian church at
Rush and Superior streets, Chicago,
and who was college friend of Sec
Rotary of State Root, friendship that
is to be made the closer by the mar
riage of the secretary's son to the
college presidents daughter
The tying of the bonds united two
young people who are very much in
love with each other. There is not a
whisper in any quarter that position
or name had the least thing in the
world to do with the engagement.
The former Miss Root has always
rather Stunned the gayer life of the
capital, and Lieutenant Grant has
never been any too fond of it. He is
studious, and so is his bride and both
are of domestic inclinations. 1t was
a good old-fashioned American we'd
ding, with Cupid's heart engaged in
every detail.
The cards of invitation to the wed
ding read as follows:
