Fashions in Women.

There are fashions not only in WON
en- clothes but In women themselves.
A certain style Of women becomes the
vogue Lydia Languish reads senti-
mental novels, dissolves In tears at a
moments notice, and finds elopement
a necessary spice for marriage. A cen
fury later Lydia's clinging type goes
out-with :'leg-o'-mutton" sleeves
and the athletic girl takes the center
of the stage, with her short skirt, her
long stride and her loud voice.
The dominant note of the early TWEEN
tieth century woman Is her ability to
be interesting. Be she plain or beauti-
full, blonde, strawberry" or brunette,
she must be pleasant To listen well
is not enough; she must have quick
wit and a clever tongue, which should
be kind as well. The dull, the quiet,
the simpering are out of fashion, and
even the athletic girl must look to her
laurels, lest the entertaining one prove
her successful rival with the exacting
sex
One modern freak of the mode de-
serves soon to pass away. The modern
woman refuses to grow old. At first
sight that seems worthy ambition.
But with the Punishment of caps and
shoulder capes something of the gen.
tleness, grace and wisdom of old age
has also been lost. In place Of those
lovely accomplishments of advanced
years we find other things which make
their bearer nondescript travesty of
youth, whose lat, complexion and con-
duct are as gay as they are unbecom-
ing.
Somebody once said thai the finest
thing God ever made was a beautiful
old woman. 1t behooves us not to let
her dignity and calm, her poise, sa-
gacity and charm go out of fashion,

Amisyville, L. l., and become secretary of
the Garden Cities of America. DIR. Bliss

founding of cities where men of small

EnuitnhIe Tnxntion.

The Republican plan of getting even
with the tax dodgers after they are
dead by imposing an inheritance tax,
graded according to the amount Of
their populations, is well enough as Il
way to get even with the present crop
of multi-millionaires, but it does not
reach the root of the trouble. The
Democratic plan of removing the cause
of special privilege that allows these
vast fortunes to be acquired is the
only proper policy. Curb the trusts

as to prevent monopoly; reduce the
exorbitant railroad, express and other
corporation charges to such a reason
able extent as will be fair to them
and the public impose graded in.

Republican Change Of Heart


Trust-Busting" does not appear to
be inherent in the Republican breast,
but with pains and prodding they may
acquire it. Debate in the Senate a few
days ago over the confirmation of Sec
'retary Bonaparte exposed the fact that
only short time ago he had expressed
the BELIEF that concentration of rail-
roads and the formation of trusts was
inevitable and advantageous. Senator
Culberson of Texas read extracts from
Secretary Bonaparte's speeches which
Indicated an attitude of an unwilling
'trust-buster," and declared that the
Secretary was not Il proper person TO
have charge of the department of JUS
tice, which is supposed to be actively
in the ''trust-busting" business. Sem
ator Knox defended Secretary Bona
parte and declared that he had under
gone a change of heart and would be

law" The report of the Senate pro-
ceedings says: when some Senator
suggested that the views of many other
Republicans on this particular subject
had undergone something of a change,
there was general laugh" As Senator
Knox is supposed TO represent the Steel
Trust and the great Pennsylvania rail
road combination the question is, who
will vouch that his heart has under
gone change on the trust and corpo-
ration questions for unless he has some
one who will stand as sponsor for him,

Frenzied Ffunnce.

Banker Schiff, of Wall street, accuses
enc of the banks there of conspiracy
to advance the interest rates on money
by calling loans in the morning and
thus causing a stringencys ana then
loaning again in the afternoon when
the rates for money have advanced. 1t
certainly must be an abnormal condi-
ton that would cause loans to be made
in the morning at 6 per cent and then
bid up to 80 per cent few hours after.
Secretary Shaw should have at once
ordered an investigation and withdraw
the public money from any bank found
guilty of such underhand proceedings.
But these frenzied financiers seem to
be more cared for by this Republican
administration than the legitimate busl-
ness men who suffer by this unnatural
interest on loans.

Shorthand and typewriting always find
