Iowa Central Order and Weighing Of
Cars Has Rsmedied Trouble.

A condition on the Iowa Central,
which was one OF the effects Of the
shortage Of cars, has been remedied in
large measure by the issuance to
agents of the order some few weeks
ago that cars to be loaded with grain
should not be loaded beyond the al
lowed capacity. This order. with the
one that accompanied 1t, that all grain
passing thru here should be weighed,
and IL the cars were overloaded, they
should be transferred, has reduced to
q minimum the dangers liable to result
from overloaded cars Since January
16, when the orders were issued, 875
cars Of grain have been weighed In ffiis
city. and only a very small per cent
were found to be overloaded Just be-
fore the order was issued some cars
loaded with grain were weighed. and
q large per cent were badly o, reloaded.
The order was the direct result Of a
wreck on the eastern division, caused
by an overloaded grain car breaking
down.

FINE woMEN's CLUB MEETING.
Rev. Merle N. Smiths Address on
/ shakespearsan subject Much En-

joyed.
One OF the most enjoyable women's
club meetings Of the season was held
Wednesday afternoon, at which the
members Of the State Center Chautau-i
qua circle were guests. The program
was in charge OF the literature and
&c. L. s. G.. department, Mrs. N. Merrill
chairman, which has been studying
Shakespeare, and opened with a de-
lightful piano duet, Hungarian Rhap-
sodie" Llszt), by Misses Hazel Ddnges
and Amy WATSON. Y
The feature Of the afternoon was
Rev Merle N. Smiths address on
.,Shakespeare's Portrayal Of Con-
Science" which showed a most compre-
flensive study. and was given in q very
entertaining manner.
The speaker said he rejoiced In the
proof, despite the many disputes over
II, that Shakespeare, In his youth. lived
clean, beautiful, wholesome life. and
that altho his intellect went upon By
wildering Journeys, his soul walked in
the straight paths He said that Shake
speare's writing proved that he saw
everything and forgot nothing. He was
a psychologist also, but his was
healthy, not q diseased Psychology,
such as Hawthorne's, altho he makes
his readers quite conscious of soul
mystery. Shakespeare loved all human
kind, hence he had the art of extract
ing their secrets. He was q student
OF morals, and the ethical grasps us
as with hands Of iron. Shakespeare
concerns himself with the problems OF
the soul, and repeatedly demonstrates
that there Is no safety except in
Righteousness and truth
The speaker pointed out as one Inn
portant fact, that he never presents q
character as victim OF fate. He gave
in q dramatic manner, extracts from
Richard III" Julius Caesar Mac
BETH" Henry W." and others, contrast
ing the bad and the good characters,
and the part that conscience played
in influencing their lives Great moral
truths were pointed out in simple In
cidents and the fools, by whom many
Of them are uttered, were divided into
two classes, the Intentional and unin-
territorial Rev. Smith said that the
hero Is not luxury, but necessity,
but the old-time hero lacked COM
science. He spoke Of Henry Of Mon
mouth as the hero OF the Shakespear-
can world and said that what the class
sic hero lack, conscience, Henry v.
possesses. f
He talked in an instructive manner.
on the violation Of conscience among
Shakespeare women, conscience as
applied both to friendship and patriot-
ism. Speaking especially Of Richard
III, Rev. Smith characterized him as
an ideal and complete villain, and
the play as not a progressive revela
ton, but Of character already formed,
Moral paralysis, he deemed worse than
suffering from conscience. He spoke
of Hamlet as one Whose only activity
lay in the workings OF his conscience.
and illustrated how events would have
changed had Hamlet been in Mac
beth's place He concluded with a
study of Macbeth" in which we see
clearly, all the dreadful growth Of
evil.
The program closed with another
duet by Misses Dinges and wasson.
The club extended a unanimous vote Of
thanks to Rev. Smith and those young
ladies, for delightful afternoon.

One can always find a novel touch in
the lingerie frocks of French design,
and this season the greatest variety. is
expressed in materials, for there are
really many sheer fabrics suitable for
summer gowns that cost but little and

lawns and linens IN white and cOlOrs-
principally brown, blue, yellow. and
black-are much in demand, and these
are made up very effectively. A mount

adds much to the elegance Of a dress
One likes, however, the sheer. cool
crispness Of figured null, which Dor
rows much of its beauty from dainty
lingerie visible through the thin veil
OF the dress material.
Parisiennes are fond of tucked skirts
for thin tub frocks. and the tucks are
put in with hemsutching. with little
headings Of embroidery and lace inser-
ton. with little strips Of ribbon and
with little ruchings Of lace above. Some
times there are no real tucks at all, as
frequently happens with a circular

one OF the chief prescriptions OF
dressmakers Just now is 10 devise new
and various combinations, and they eX-
tend this to the trimming Of one figured
fabric with another. The idea is most
extensively employed in the foulard
silks and soft striped face cloths, yet
one finds IL repeated in simple froCks
for summer wear. For instance. the
dainty linen dimities printed with large
polka dots are combined with plain
lawn studded with small disks, spots,
etc, the ground being the same in both
cases, with the difference only I'm the
pattern. With such fTOCks insets Of
lace or narrow lace ruffles can be used
more simultaneously than embroidered
trimmings, and the latter are reserved
for fabrics of plain surface where the
decoration will appear 10 better advan-
tage
A number OF dainty dresses in silk
null are made up over figured organ
dies in imitation OF the more expensive
vOiles and silks built over figured and
striped taffetas. and their success has
been assured from their first appear
ance. In very expensive froCks certain
dressmakers use mOusselines mounted
over foulard, both materials of similar
pattern. and the alliance is a pleasing
ono, but too costly for the average
woman's dress allowance.
