Democrats for Good Roads.

The Democratic party at Denver
took the most advanced step yet TAX
en- upon the question of good roads,
by adopting a strong plank favoring
federal and state aid to the farmers,
to assist in building permanent high
ways.
Uncle Sam uses 40 per cent. of all
the highways for rural mail delivery,
and as good roads, according to the
postal authorities, will cheaper the
cost of the service 20 per cent, there
is good reason why national aid
| should be extended. Rural mail deliv-
cry now costs $35, 000, 600 per year,
and this means a saving of $1,000, 600
per year and it will soon be $10,0GA,-
900. If the government were to issue
$500, 000, 600 of two per cent bonds to
assist building the roads, the saving
on rural delivery would pay the inter-
est on the bonds. The $500, 000, 600
would give about $3.50 for every mile
of road used for rural delivery.
The farmer alone cannot build the
roads. They can be built by state aid,
and if federal aid were extended also
it would be easy.

The Harvester Trust.

That bucking a trust is uphill bust
ness may be judged from the report in
the New York Journal of Commerce
that:
THE hemp,growers' combine, formed
several months ago to fight the r
vester trust, has proven a failure, and
the latter is now buying hemp at its
own prices
What is known as the "hemp-grow-
ers' combine does not deal in real
hemp or fax, but in such grasses and
fibers as are used in the manufacture
of binding Irvine.
Paragraph 566 Of the tariff law
places all such grasses and tibers on
the free list, which shows how other
trusts and combines would fare il not
protected by the tariff. Competition
has broken the power of the hemp
growers combine" but its competitor,
the harvester trust, which is protected
by the tariff on the agricultural ma
chinery it manufactures, is t1ourishing
like a green bay tree. If the harvester
trust was not protected by the tariff
we might expect to see the price Of
agricultural machinery much less thar
it now is.
1t will be interesting ct see if the
harvester trust, having forced the
"hemp-growers' combine to reduce
the price of the raw material, will sci
Irvine any cheaper to the wheat grow

Tariff the Root of the Evil.

The robber tariff is the source of
most evils of which the American
people complain. If the tariff were
so adjusted as TO protect American
workingmen only, and not to fatten
trusts, the cost of living would be
greatly reduced, to begin with and the
high cost of living is one of the things
to which the people object most vigor-
ously. If the tariff were honest there
would be no enormous accumulations
Of wealth in the country to make timid
citizens afraid of the future of the re.
public, to o IL the envy of the
masses, and to exert dangerous power
in public affairs. If the tariff were
honest, American consumers would
not be robbed right and left by Ameri
can manufacturers, combined into
trusts.-Chicago Journal (Ind.)

Hearstism,

A reader asks: What are Mr..
Hearst's claims to political leader
ship?' They are a capitalists claims.
He invested large sums of money in
political leadership, and in newspa'
pers to advertise his investment.
When it did not yield the dividends he
had expected, because both the "regu.
lar parties are happily unpurchasable,
he took what money was left over
after his newspaper expenditures and
reinvested it in a new party, which he
financed and named the independence
party. This party is now better
known as "the Doodle Dees." 1t rep
resents nothing but Mr.. Hearst, and
he represents nothing but ambition.

Novelty in Skirts.

The really new skirt, which we
find in silk cachemire, in heavy crepe
de chine, in thick eastern silks of all
kinds, as in supple light cloths, is
made with folds dragged across the
front from bust to ankles, the ten.
dency of the lines being to mount
toward the back, perhaps crossing
over o~bliquely there and ending under
a buckle on n hip, or at the shoulder
blade. Fancy this in dead leaf color,
meager as to underskirt, slightly
trailing, and worn with a taffeta coat
in light jade green, which, short.waist.
ed and t~ailless behind, has two Iona
side pieces that almost reach the
ankles, fringed and embroidered in
soutache. There Is a soft sash Of
black liberty satin, which is carried
across the bust under the coat, high
enough behind to just show under the
short coat back, and crossing there,
returning to droop in front and knot
at the bend of the legs.

Old Idea Reuiued-

A pretty way of trimming a muslin
and lace frock is by heading the deep
insertion of lace on the skirt (the band
of dentelle so beloved Of Paris) with a
beading wide enough to admit a soft
satin ribbon, some two or three inches
in width, this ribbon being threaded
through 1t at intervals of about a foot,
tied into pretty bows, but these are
not left on a level with the beading.
They are pulled through SO that the
bow hangs down over the lace, the lit.
tie ends having a ball of floss silk to
finish them off, with a bunch of fringe
falling from the center of each ball.
These loosely hanging bows look very
quaint. against the lace background.

WHAT THE TRADE MARK MEANS
TO THE BUYER

Few people realize the importance
Of the words Trade Mark" stamped
on the goods they buy. If they did
it would save them many a dollar
spent for worthless goods and put q
lot of INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers
out Of the business.
When a manufacturer adopts a
trade mark he assumes the entire re-
sponsibility for the merit of his prod
uct. He takes his business repu-
ton in his hands-out in the lime
light-"on the square" with the buy
er of his goods, with the dealer, and
with himself.
The other manufacturer-the one
who holds out inducements offer
ing to brand all goods purchased with
each local dealers brand - sidesteps
responsibility, and when these infe-
rior goods come back it's the local
dealer that must pay the penalty.
A good example of the kind of pro-
lection afforded the public by a trade
mark is that offered in connection
With National Lead Company'S adVer-
Using of pure White Lead as the best
paint material.
That the Dutch Boy Painter trade
mark is an absolute guaranty of puTi-
ty in White Lead is proved to the
most skeptical by the offer National
Lead Company make to send free TO
any address a blow-pipe and instruc-
tons how to test the white lead for
themselves. The testing outfit is be-
ing sent out from the New York
Office of the company, Woodbridge
Building.

A Betting Jumper.

Embroidered linen betting, in white
and color, may be bought by the yard,
and a very clever little lady has used
1t to make herself a jumper. A double
thickness over each shoulder, from the
waist line in the front to the waist line
in the back, is the foundation of the
garment, while a few strips across the
back and front give the whole a very
iumper-like appearance.
The four loops at the waist line
formed by the shoulder straps are used
to slip the belt through, so, when it is
worn with a white skirt and blouse
the effect is of one of the popular one
piece dresses.
1t is just such an arrangement thai
makes 1t possible to a blouse ant
skirt without a coat.

FRocks FOR THE TUB.
Blue and Brown GaIatea Among the
Best of Materials.

Among the cheapest Of the good

made of blue and brown galatea. The

1t comes in good tones that do not
show soil and comes out of the tub

many linen frocks. The good quality
Is the only one worth buying, and a
frock of it amounts up.

only one, she should get it in rose

be dressy enough for afternoon wear.

UNITED PARTY BEHIND BRYAN.
Presidential Candidate lie Assured Of
Hearty Support.

For the first time in II years the
Democratic party is united in hearty
support of its presidential candidate.
Alton B. Parker, who ran for presi'
dent four years ago, is making
speeches on the Pacific coast in favor
of Mr.. Bryan. He made one last week
in Los Angeles, and now it is an
nounced that he will address the peo-
pie of San Francisco.
Four years ago Mr.. Parker had only
Bryan's nominal support, and Bryan
men did not ever make a p%retense or
supporting him. The result was h a
he carried only the southern states
and was overwhelmingly defeated. II
this year he had refused to take part
in Mr.. Bryan's campaign he could not
have been blamed.
But Mr.. Parker, and with him prob
ably that wing of the party which
heretofore has opposed Bryan, now
forgets the past and takes off his coat
for the party candidate. He will dc
all in his power to elect Bryan, which
is more than several candidates
against Mr.. Taft at the Chicago con
vention are doing for the Republican
nominee.-Chicago Journal (lnd.J

quisette is fiimsy, but everything this

WAY TO MAKE NEAT HEM.
Accomplishment Few Women Seem to
Have at Command.

1t is really surprising how few wo-
men know how to make a neat hem,
although this was considered a neces.
sary accomplishment in the days of
u grandmothers. 1t is used to finish
the raw edges of goods and it is most
important that 1t be evenly and neatly
turned down; always turn it toward
you. To do this, turn down one-quar-
ter of an inch all along the edge and
haste it on the crease with even bast-
ing stitches.
Take a stiff piece of cardboard and
mark on it the exact width of the
hem. Place the edge of the creased
cardboard at the creased edge of the
goods and mark the desired width
with a thread, using the short and
long basting stitch. Fold the hem on
this line Of thread and haste to the
material along the upper edge with an
even basting. In hemming do not use
a knot. Hold the hem across the end
of the forefinger of the left hand.
Point the needle toward you, to the
right, and insert 1t under the edge of
the hem close to the right hand. Draw
the needle through, leaving an end
of the thread to be tucked under the
edge.
To begin the hemming stitch, point
the needle toward the middle of the
left thumb and take up one thread of
the cloth and the anne of the fold. To
have the thread slant in the right d.
r%ection, see that each time a stitch is
taken that the needle points directly
across the middle of the left thumb.
To have the hem appear we'll when
finished care must be taken to have
the distance between each stitch ex.
actly the same.-EXchange.
