THE NEW SLEEVES.

Really long sleeves are 'n'-longer
than any that have been worn in two
years! Some of them, however, are
developed from the mandarin or other
wide-arm-holed form. One of these,
made in tucked wolfe, continued full to
the elbow, where it began to be fitted
in with graduated pleats until it be-
came a practically tight wrist form.
Where the bell sleeve continues to be
made as in some of the new jacket
forms, but massed with velvet bands
or soutache lines of braiding, and so
made to appear ample and even heavy.
In jackets, however, this sleeve is pro-
vided with an undersleeve Of white or
ecru, tan or khaki cloth, according to
the vest, with which it corresponds.
Some decidedly smart dresses are
given unders'eeyes of suede or dull
glace kid These are thinly interlined,
fit close about the forearm, and are
usually bound at the wrist with black
satin or silk braid. This touch OF
black satin, by the by, and free use
of pompadour ribbon and sashes, are
especially fashionable accents in the
new gowns-Harper's Bazaar.

His enormous legacy was to be eXpend-
ed in different ways, but most deeply
in his heart was the ideal of back tC
the land" The money to finance the
establishment of many of the Jewish
farming communities came from this
fund. Perhaps the most conspicuous
effort was made in the Argentine Re
public, but this country has also profit
ed largely by his generosity. In fact.
the policy of helping the Jew back to

other than large cities has been sue

to over $1,000,000 for an extension Of
this work in a way that should pro
foundly affect the Jew in this country
and that may be national importance
to the United States. In reply to the
ever-recurring demand for restricted
immigration from the congested ports
headed in Europe by the Rothschilds
and in America by Jacob II. Schiff is

We Obnoxious Americans.

The American in the old country
makes himself obnoxious in the same
way. He starts out with the assump-
ton that London is and Of right ought
to be a bigger Seattle. It has had
plenty of time, and if it is not up-to-
date it argues mental defent on the
part of it's citizens. He is disap-
pointed in what he sees. The belated
people still 90 about on omnibuses
and seem to like it. The telephone
service is beneath contempt, and the
ordinary business man does only one
thing at a time. This is all wrong,
and with the zeal of a missionary he
urges the native islanders to get
busy" He explains to them the de-
fects in their education. On the
slightest prov ocation he INDUCES in
statistics of American bank clear
ances and grain shipments, and the
increase in population since the last
census. He is annoyed because they
refuse to be astonished at these
things and reserve their surprise for
his incidental revelations of the meth
DDS of municipal politics. He is thor
oughly kind. He is careful to make
them understand that he does not
wish to offend against any of their
Inherited prejudices.-S. NJ Crothers

SUSPENSION BECAUSE OF IN
JUpICIoUS LOANS.
MATTERS MAY BE STRAIGHT

PERMITTED.
STOCKHOLDERS LIABLE AND DE.
POSITORS WILL NOT SUFFER
ANY LOSS.
Madison, Sept. 80.

By order of M. C. Bergh, state COM
missioner of banking, the Farmers
Bank of Cuba City has been closed.
The cause is injudicious investment
of money. Depositors will not lose,
as the owners of the bank are volun-
tarily personally liable and they are
men of means.
The bank was capitalized at $500,
which is very small considering the
volume of deposits, which are in the
neighborhood of 100000. The rea-
son for the closing Of the bank is
that a good deal of paper was being
carried which the commission would
not acknowledge as being worth what
it represented. On account of these
injudicious loans the stability of the
bank became impaired and the com
missioner felt it his duty under the
law to close the bank and compel the
owners to either liQuidate Or brace
up the institution.
It is not believed that the bank will
discontinue, but the stockholders
have gotten together and declare
that the situation will be quickly ad
justed to the entire satisfaction OF
the state commissioner and in full
conformity to the law and ample pro
lection will be provided for the pa,
irons
In 1903 the stockholders filed with
the commissioner of banking at Mad
ison d declaration of unlimited liabil-
ity, which insures any depositor from
loss. The stockholders are substan-
tial men and there is positively no
danger of any depositor losing dol
lar John Longbotham is president
of the bank, John Warrick vice pres
ident, Joseph Longbotham cashier
and A. T. Scott, assistant cashier.
