George Washington and Some
 Other Fathers and Mothers.

As the father of his country, George, Washington enjoys a unique distinc- ton inasmuch as he was actually leading figure in those events respon- siIble for the independent sovereignty of his land. Comparatively few other personages who are today rec ognized popularity as world power fathers occupies similar position, many of these fathers and mothers, too. being latter day individuals who assumed their roles in the affairs or nations after thcir respective lands had we'll advanced in their careers
 The reason for this is not dlmcut to answer Giant strides have been made by the great nations of the earth in recent decades. Countries like Japan, for instance have within few years shaken off the antediiuVian traditions of their erstwhile fathers and emerged into a full enjoyment or progressive ideas that were strange 10 them only little while ago. The rulers or leading spirits in the time or these peaceful revolutionary processes are acw frequently deemed by their people more deserving of the distinc- ton of being ''ttc fathers or thelr countries than some of their preoe- cessors anu ,his, too. without de- tracting from all due credit to Famous ancestors of forcrunners such, for ex- ample as King Alfred in the case of England. whom worthy Britons very properly regard as the great grand father of their land.
 The world has not been lax in hon- bring it's fathers-and mothers-and in perpetuating their fame, and not the least impressive means employed in tFis homage has been the portray

al of the fes lures of individuals upon postage stamp issues Memories of valorous deeds in peace and war have thus been kept ever before untold hosts. which have been enabled to fansiliariZe themselves as they could have done in no other way with the benign features of those figures whose personalities playeS wonderful part in forming history.
 It is an impossible task to estimate the number of stamps upon which has appeared the picture of Washing ton. The printing of these began be- fore the government issued postage stamps, and when these little letter carriers were the product of private postmasters, and 1t has continued un- til today, and will doubtless continue for all time,
 Not only on regular adhesive postage stamps has the picture of Washington been cmblazoned, but on local stamps, newspaper stamps, revenue stamps and envelope stamps. Every revenue stamp issued during the Civil War period bore the picture of the first President
 Washington's picture has always ap- peared upon the postage stamp of the most common issue, through which fact 1t has at all times been assured of the widest publicity of any of a given se- ries. When postal rates have been changed the head of Washington has also been changed from the formerly popular stamp to the new one Thus his portrait has consantly occupied the central position in the postage salon through successive changes from 10 cents to cents. and then to two cents as the cost of ordinary letter carry ing.
 The pictures of Washington that have been presented on the stamps have been copied from two sources, the

busts by Houden and painting by Stewart. Tie profile after Houden is found on all issues begining with that of 1851 and extending to 1902. The painting by Stewart was taken as the copy of the first Government issue of stamps in 1S47, and for the issue of 1909.
 The first stamp ever issued bearing the picture of Washington appeared In 1s42, and was used for private pur- poses It was printed in New York City for the City Despatch Post" and carried letters and parcels through a private carrier service at and cents according to weight, size and other characteristics of the mailed articles It was printed in black ink on various colurs of paper and specimens today are regarded as prizes by philatel- ists. The stamp was also used as d provisional issue by the New York postmaster. the distinction being dis cernible only through the rancalla- tion.
 In lS45 the postmaster at New York came out with provisional , cents stamp bearing a much better picture of Washington; indeed. d most creditable work.
 One uf the choicest of United States rarities fin the stamp line is the Mill bury (Mass) provisional issue of 1S47.
 
 showing the head of Washington. Few stamps of this country are more highly prized and the specimens that now ex- ist are worth from $1,200 to s1.500 each Mr Y. J. Butcher of FIopedale, Mass. has a very fine copy that stlll adheres to the envelope il carried through the mails sixty years ago, and IS particularly prized on this account.
 In the year of the Millbury issue the United States Government went Into the stamp business for itself, and since that date George Washington has oc- cupied the center of the stage as mall carrier In this country. There were two regular .ssues in that year. The scent stamp bore Frankins picture while the Io-cent denomination showed Washington These stamps held sway until 1S51 when the designs were changed and d number of denomina- tious up to 20 cents were printed. On tho 8 rnnts. 11 cents, 12 cents. 24 cents and 90 erfs Washugton's picture was used The l-cent and $o cents bore Frankl'H'S portrait. while Jefferson ap- peared on the 3 cents.

TASK IS HARD ONE.
Central American Republics are All
 SuspiciOus of Each Other.


 Washington, Feo. 22.-Such advices as reached the State Department from Central America today indicate the ex istence of deep-seated suspicion by each of the republics of the motives of another that does not tend to make easier the task set for the United States and Mexico of reconciling Mica ragua and Honduras
 Tn fact, the officials have almost reached the conclusion that not until the quarrel has proceeded further and some bloodshed has sobered the in tiamed parties to the strife, will 1t be possible to attempt to intervene suc- cessfully even to the extent of prof fer Of arbitration.
 The last statement bearing upon this point is to the effect that Salvador has been aiding Honduras by supplying am- intuition, but 1t is said to be possible that this is founded on the fact that these two countries have generally acted together wherever international relations are concerned.

-- can wash the skirt in the tub. The jacket I have cleaned merely on &C., count of the lining With a costume of this sort tailor made hat of straw In the burnt shade is most prac> tical, or one of the flower trimmed sailors is very pretty with. the sheer white blouses so much in vogue.
 For a belt-and it Is a mistake to buy cheap one-there are any num- Der of novelties in elastic, studded with steel points or in suede and glace kid beautifully fitted.
 Now for the other dress This is to De worn on occasions where shirt waist or separate blouse Is not desir- lbie.
 Yelling is perhaps the smartest and most durable material. If possible the cut should be princess, as this is the correct style at present. The yoke and undersleeves may be of any pretty lace to give the guimpe-like effect so much the fashion. A little taffcta coat of the same color, in shape loose hanging Eton. should accompany this and be trimmed with pretty buttons. The hat should be trimmed to match of course, and to be ultra smart the silk stockings seen above the low pumps should be un the same shade.
 Either a reddish brown or a royal blue would be prettiest carried out in this manner.
 speaking of reddish brown I want to remark that 6 lot of 1t Is to be worn again this summer. Last season when l was at Newport I commented on the number of brown parasols and brown hats worn with all white costumes. Well, this year you will see quite as many. Brown is very becoming to American women.
 Just as present the fad seems to be the reddish brown lace veil drawn tightly over the face and clasped with a fancy pin at the base of the neck. allowing the heavily embroidered ends to fall down the back.
 A great many foulards will be worn. and if you want an extra dress this is very pretty.
 I am in love, however, with the new lingerie models, and these. by the way. are being used for afternoon wear in the house right now. They are the most wonderful combinations of Ger man valenciennes and heavy embroid- cry you can imagine. They are nearly all made in one piece and are designed to wear over princess slips of taffeta or china silk in pale pink, white or blue.
 am told that colored linen morning frocks, with colored linen parasols to match--are to be the latest wrinkle with the advent of warm weather and that some people with plenty of money are even having colored canvas shoes
