garden, set with atticed arbors in green and white.
 In the number of exhibitors, agSre- gatins over 300. as well as in simplic- ity beauty of decorations, this years show surpasses any previously held. Last year there were added over l0. 900 feet of floor space over 1905. while this year it was necessary to add the increased demand for space.
 The exhibition of electric vehicles is the most complete ever held, which, with full line of commercial vehicles and the first complete motor cycle exhibit and the 1908 models of the standard gasoline cars afforded an imposing array of the various means of locomotion.
 A feature which will undoubtedly attract much attention is the m)t"r cycle exhibition. Thirty-one prom nent manufacturers of motor cycles have installed exhibits, including many European manufactures.
 The exhibits of automobiles include only those of American make. as was the case at the Independent show at Grand Central ra'ace. For ,hc fast time this year the machines of for eign manufacture will bs shown sep aratdy at special importers show. opening December 2S in Madison Square Garden.
 One of the most important facts that forces itself upon the observer is the predominance and the remark able popularity of the six cylinder ear. If the eXhibitoin affords any criterion for judging the public fam cy-and it usually does-then the coming year may be termed six cylinder year in the American auto mobile world.

GRAYyCRIMSON-WHITE

New York. Nov 2.-ln the long procession of vastly varied events which held forth in New Yorks big gest show house, none has yet suc- ceeded in effecting more complete transformation of the Madison Square Garden interior than the annual auto- mobile shows of the last few years The efforts of the committee in charge of these exhibitions have been to re- move or conceal the most familiar lines of the Garden interior by con- verting it into some definite picture which becomes itself the frame for the exhibits. While the task of ac- complaining this in some new way has become increasingly difficult each year, the genius of those to whom it falls has risen to the occasion. The eighth national automobile show opening tonight under the direction of the Association of Licensed Auto mobile Manufacturers, offers no eX- ception to this general rule. For the show of 1908 models of motor cars . the pictorial idea is that of a terraced 5 liance, without it's being open to the 4 criticism made last year that the gorgeousness of the work has been overdone There is much less orna- mentaton in staff work. with a con- sequent gain of spacious effect and of-door feeling. \ simpler, but none the less expensive, setting has been afforded for the gems of the automobile industry
 The color scheme of the big show is gray and crimson and white There is no starry sky overhead, as last year, but the girders of the great dome are screened by a canopy of soft material a warm gray in tone. The exhibition spaces of the main floor and elevated platform are carpeted with a specially woven fabric of deep crimson, with the visitors aisles be-

 For the edges of the balcony, the platform and the meZaznine floor, special railings have been designed, which, like the lamp and sign pill lars, are finished in pure white. A lew heroic statues in staff work adorn the platform.
 The same gray and crimson scheme IS found in the basement and cafe. A rathskeller with a novel grotto eff rect is located in an out-of-the- way corner of the basement.

THE CHILD OF THE MILL

BY Mary MNabb Johnston.
They thought her terrible sinner, you
Though youthful and tender and
Small;
She had come to the world In a poor
mans home
When there seemed neither need or
For theft is wrong and murder is
To be poor is the worst of ALL
Oh, the world frowned dark when her
parents died,
And she on it's mercy was thrown,
A shelterless orphan with hands too
small
To battle with fate alone.
For poverty's cloud o'ershadowed her
life.
And how could she ever atone?
Well, the princes Of commerce and
makers Of law,
Who see that the world goes right,
Gagged her in one Of their cotton mills
TO labor from morning till night;
And her hands grew thinner every
day
The poor little human mite.
A visitor noted that patient slave
In the mill as he wandered past;
The fatal flush on her little cheeks
Her breathing too short and fast.
Great God!" he cried, docs this thing
pay?
How long do you think she will
last?"
How long? know not" the foreman
said
"That isn't the question for me;
| To measure the work instead Of the
life
Is my duty toward such as she.
! When she fails to come there are hun
dreds more
! Business is business you see."
Yes, "business is business" some
| kinds are just,
And others mean war to the knife
Their weapons were forged in the fur
mace Of hell,
And are welded in endless strife.
But Christ has a name for the gold
