is the pride Of the workers heart, a
part Of her very self, which has engaged
her attention, her thought, and her
time for months and in some cases nearly
a year
The Bidemieryer stitch is the newest
design at the show. 1t is in the shape
of centerpiece embroidered with
colored silks. tt is asserted Of this stitch
that it is easily and rapidly done and
that the work is particularly attractive.
Bidemieryer work is much ike other

ing OF colors and shades. in addition 10
the stitch. that IS much admired.
Old-fashioued quilts and other pieces
Of needle work, all done by hand. are
other features Of the display. Several
patch quilts done in flowers are inter

squares about a quarter OF an inch in
size. The work Is so perfectly done that
the sewing looks as If it had been done
by machine.

shown. and draws as much attention as
anything among the exhibits. The work
is that Of a Washington woman. who
spent some time in the Golden Gate State.

of Races in America.

Diversity i'm the species as repre-

if not carried to the extreme accord
ing TO the opinion voiced by o. 7. Cook,
of the Department of Agriculture. in
his address before the Anthropological
Society in the assembly hall Of the
Cosmos club last evening on The
Principles OF Evolution.
The question came before the meeting
at the discussion after the regular lee
turc. when Dr. Ales Hrdlicka inquired
as 20 the desirability Of diversity Of
species As represented in the United
states. In replying, DR.. Cook said that
first though there were many types
blended in this country there was
growing out of the many different
species a type distinctly American,
which was recognized the world over.
In addition he remarked.
There is no question but what a
diversity Of species is TO be desired If
not carried TO the extreme. In the
many types iE America we find a new
type which Will. 7 feel sure. improve

TALKS ON LITERARY TOPICS.
Hamilton Mabie Lectures on Great
Literature's Message.

Shakespeare. Homer. Browning. Emer-
son, and other Of the old authors were
referred to and extracts given from their
writings by Hamilton Wright Mabie. edi-
tor of Outlook. in lecture on The Mes
sages of Great Literature" yesterday af-
ternoon. The ballroom on the tenth floor
of the New Willard was filled with liter
airy people and prominent educators Of
the District, to hear the distinguished
speaker. Among others present We're
Henry Van Dyke and Rev. Dr. Edward
Everett Hale. Mr.. Mabie was introduced
by Admiral Baird. president Of the board
of education. The lecture was given un-
der the direction of the District of Co
lumbia kindergarten Association.
With reference To Barry and other
Scottish writer's, Mr. Mabie said that
Scotland was the greatest country in the
world for the origin of magnificent 70
mantle prose and poetry. In speaking OF
geniuses Mr.. Mabie brought out the idea
that it is the people in general, the little
things in life. that make such interesting
reading and which are seen only by men
and women who possess the instinct OF
the genius.
The lecturer spoke of the freshness of
the mind. freshness of the soul. which
many of the great writer's, In fact nearly
all of them, possessed. They are boys,
he said. even until they die. The freshness
of spirit. Of youthful memories, was the
great part Of the writer's whose names
VIII never be forgotten.

TIPPING IS LIKE GIVING Aims.
Business Mems Association Files
Protest Against Practice.

Declaring that the practice of tipping
has reached such enormous proportions
that the service OF stewards. walters
porters. and other employees of hotels
restaurants. cafes. and eating houses in
the District OF Columbia has become dis
criminatory. unfair. and unjust 20 the
guests Of said places who are financially
unable, or who have the courage TO re-
fuse TO thus pay tribute for services TO
which they are Of right entitled. the
Business Mems Association yesterday
forwarded to the Commissioners a copy
of resolutions protesting against this
practice.
The custom Of giving and receiving tips,
il is stated Is un-American and has a
tendency 10 lower the standard Of Amer
lean citizenship by placing upon the
recipients the stigma of beggary.
Further that the act Of giving tips as
sumes that the giver is Of a higher class
or standing than the recipient thereof.
and that the solicitation OF tips places
upon respectable vOeations the badge OF
servili,y.
Il is understood. however. that the
Commissioners viii submit to Congress
an unfavorable report on the tipping bill.
