It con sists of the short sleeves, being made of chiffon, lace or other delicate fab ric, though it may not enter into the composition of the remainder of the bodice. The pun is finished at the el- bow with band of velvet, or one of whatever material the bodice is con- posed. The effect at first looks odd, for 1t gives the impression that the dressmaker has run short of bodice material. One model shows gray blue soft cloth, with puff sleeves of gray silk mousseline, set into bands of gray velvet below the elbow. At the throat is vest and collar of the gray mousseline. Yet another smart model Is in black silk muslin. em- broidered with dots of blue silk. The sleeves are finished at the elbow with bands of blue panne.

All hail to Representative Murphy of Missouri and his anti-tip bill, just presented in congress. If there is a place in the nation to start the clean ing out process on this matter 1t is at the nations capital. says our Washington correspondent. His bill prohibiting tips has aroused a storm of protests from the tippees. The walters are, up in arms and they are backed by the hotel proprietors. The idea that . boniface should be priv ileged to compel his guests to endure blackmail in silence in order to se- cure food and service for which they pay the beforesaid boniface prices out of all proportion to what they get, is preposterous as we'll as out rageous. The Willard, for instance, has . price list which equals or sur passes the Waldorf and yet every time service is requested a hand ont Is expected. A modest meal costs s1.5G to s2, to which must be added 25 to so cents for the waiter. For politeness. for prompt service" etc, say the walters. One would like to know. therefore, for what does the travelling public pay the hotel pro- prietor? Is 1t not his business to furnish polite and attentive help as much as clean table linen and drink ing water, When one pays s4 a day for an inside room without a bath is he not entitled to expect a pitcher of ice water without fleeing the bell boy? There is only one gratifying feature of the tipping system: 1t creates caste. No one receives a tip without instinctively feeling . lowering of his public standing: no one bestovs a tip without feeling he is superior to the recipient. If the walters are will ing to sully their manhood by such open manifestation of their inferiori- ty, the tipping public can stand it.

Statements that Secretary of the Treasury-to-be Cortelyou would over haul the treasury, when hs takes hold, with view to preventing the National City bank from getting in- side information, are secuted. Secre- tary Shaw says the National City bank has no pull and gets no inside information. Maybe not, says a Washington writer, but. as there are several thousand treasury employees, perhaps there may be a leak that MT Shaw doesn't know about. In any event. the popular impression is that the National City bank knows about as much about what is going on in the treasury as does the eminent sec retary. By the way, what about those bonds that mature on June 30 of this year? Is the National City bank still gathering them in? Will the treasury redeem or refund them and who will make the stake?

charge in both directions. it is true;
and they adjust their rates and or
ganize their system with view to
making business; to forcing more
or less unnecessary haulage. But it
has, in the last analysis, simply the
effect of imposing an unjust tax on
the country, which, of course, as
the aggregate of consumers, must
pay the freight.
All this might be forgiven if
there were nothing else for the rail-
roads to do. But when they are
unable to handle the business that
is offered to them; when people
shiver in one section while useless
and wasteful hauling is being done
in another-then it seems that time
has come for consideration of some
fundamentals of commercial geog-
raphy. This Florida-California case
affords an excellent occasion for be-
ginning such a study.
