MATERIAL FOR THE COLLAR.
Fine Null In Thread Tucks 10 Now
Much Worn.


The new separate collar to attach to
thin white blouse is made Of very
fine null in thread tucks, edged with
tiny border of black silk muslin at
top and bottom.
A line OF this is also run up the
back and it is fastened with tiny round
SILK buttons and cord loops.
The little bow attached to the front
is of plated null edged with the
black, and in the center there is a
butterfly Of Irish lace.
This stock is especially effective
with an all-white suit and carries out
the color scheme If there are black
pumps and stockings and a white hat
trimmed with black satin.
1t is quite the fashion to finish the
center of the stiff little bows worn In
front Of stock with a motif of heavy
lace. These can easily be picked up
by the half dozen at sales.
Another pretty idea In neckwear is
a large bow Of messaline made with
equal loops and ends finished with a
heavy silk cord to match at all edges.
These sell in some shops for $3.50
but IL girl has bit of messaline In
the house she can make one for the
price of the cord.
They are worn at the base of the
stock as well as with the thin turn
over collar which is taking the place
OF the thick linen turnover.

Women FIsbermen.

On the coast of Holland, Belgium
and Northern France the fisherwomen
are familiar sight, with their great
hand nets and quaint costumes. Many
of the towns have distinctive costumes
by which their women can be recog-
hized anywhere. Those Of Mana-Kirke,
near Ostend, wear trousers and loose
blouses, while their heads and shoul-
ders are covered by shawls. They
carry their nets into the sea and scoop
up vast quantities of shrimps and
prawns, with an occasional crab or
lobster and many small fish. They
often wade out till the water is up to
their necks, and they remain for hours
at time in water above their knees.
rarely returning until their baskets
are full.

popuit,vs China.

The population Of the Chinese en-
pire liz largely a matter of estimate.
There has never been such census Of
the empire as that which Is
taken every, decade In this. country.
But the estimate OF the Aimanach de
Gotha for 1900 may be taken as fairly
reliable. According to that estimate,
the population of the empire is, In
round numbers, about 400,000,000. 1t
is probably safe to say that If the
human beings on earth were stood up
in line every fourth one would be a
Chinaman.

iceable and very appropriate. The
veil, when worn in the sumner, is

silk grenadine bordered with Grape,

A word of caution to those buy

TAFT AND THE FARMERS.

"The farmers are rich-never more
so-and they ascribe their riches to
Mckinley, Roosevelt and the policies
Of the Republican party"
Thus writes a correspondent from
the middle west, and his words
doubtless cover the situation through
out all the west The farmers know
that their present fourishing condi-
ton Is due to the Republican policies
Of building up American industry. of
developing and improving every
branch Of agriculture and of adding
to the farmers opportunities for self
culture and for keeping in touch with
current events and the markets of
the world by the rural free delivery
system.
The farmers know that what Re-
publican administrations have done
for the farmer cost money and he
sees that expenditure denounced in
the Bryan platform as unnecessary
and wasteful." Naturally, the farm
Ter prefers the Republican party,
whose policies made him comfortable
and independent. and proposes to vote
for William H. Taft, the Republican
candidate for president Of the United
States, who, with the cooperation
of a Republican congress, will con-
tinue those policies, and will seek
to make the condition of the Amer
lean farmer even better than 1t is
now.
That is one reason why the west is
for Taft and Sherman.

Newsy Gossip From

Chicago, Oct. 7.-Western mail has
doubled and even quadrupled each
four years of late, a fact urged by
western railways as reason why
they should be paid more for their
mail service. The present laws re-
Quire that the pay of railways during
four-year contracts shall be based
upon the weights hauled during 105
days, when the mails are weighed. A
committee of supervisors of mail SER

ed in general protest against the

year Uncle Sam paid to railways, east
and west, $43,896,92S for transporta-

of that kind the mails cost $780,

veteran of the Chicago postofflce,
Assistant Postmaster Hubbard said
Of the change: "As one result the

THE ORIGINATING MIND.

In one Of his recent speeches Mr..
Bryan remarked that Judge Taft cor
tginated nothing" Judge Taft might
rstort that Mr.. Bryan now wishes
that he had not Originated" 60 much.
Tho fact, however, that Mr.. Bryan
thinks its profitable politics to apply
. characterization of this nature to
the Republican candidate shows the
hysterical state Of Mr.. Bryans mind.
and indicates his own belief that a
state of hysterta pervades the coun-
try, and that the man will be elected
next November who knows how to
foster this hysteria with the great
est art.
The notion that the safest occu-
pant Of the Office of president of the
United States Is a man who originates
things is new notion. The oath
which the constitution requires the
president to take before entering on
the execution of his office runs thus:
II do solemnly swear Tor afiirm) that
I will faithfully execute the Office of
president Of the United States, and
will. to the best Of my ability, pre-
serve, protect. and defend the consti-
tuition Of the United States" One

1t is strange, but it is true. that
the law-abiding element Of a commu-

be because it is restrained by law
and is therefore at a disadvantage in
a contest with men who have no re-
spect for law. In view of the fact
that the men in the counties infested
with these midnight marauders, by

chance for inconsiderate combination
OF words. The basic quality required
by these words is not an originating
mind but staple mind-not a mind
which is shut against new needs, but
la mind which. while ready to recog-
nize new needs, is also able to weigh
and judge how these needs shall be
met in the light of experience and
the common welfare.
The true antithesis to Mr.. Bryan's
originating mind is the executive
mind. 1t is matter OF proof that
Judge Taft possesses the executive
mind. All his training has been in
that direction. and his natural mental
qualities have operated with distinc-
ton on that line. In his services on
the bench, in the Philippine islands,
in Cuba, and at the Isthmus of Pan
ANA, his work was executive. He ap-
piled the law as a judge; he applied
American usages, both governmental
and educational. to the Filipinos; he
brought harmony out OF discord in
Cuba: and at Panama he regulated
the largest constructive undertaking
OF our times. Nobody questions his
success in all this work, not even Mr..
Bryan. But the prime note in this
work was that 1t all proceeded with
out novelty, without innovations, but
merely by applying the lessons Of ex-
perience with unerring accuracy and
sagacity to special and varying needs
of our day.
Mr.. Bryan's Notifying experience
with the Oklahoma governor affords
the true contrast. Mr.. Haskell, like
Mr.. Bryan himself, possesses the Or
iginating mind. Both in constitution
making and in practical affairs he is
fond Of new things and new ways.
Mr.. Bryan likes men OF new ideas;
plnoM gu aqua aqnop GU 81 eIeqa pue
have appointed Haskell to a seat in
his misunderstanding that this
chance had come to him-or as an
ambassador of the United States, or
to the bench of the supreme court,
with the same good faith with which
he entrusted to Haskell almost auth
oritative control over the Denver con-
yention. Happily the Denver conven-
ton was not the United States, so
that no particular harm has been
done except to Mr.. Bryan's own rep
utation; but suppose that the United
States had been concerned? Mr.. Bry-
an did the very best that he could
according to his own notion-when
he took up with Haskell and his spec
ulative career. He was no more conf
dent that he was right when he adj
vocated fifty-cent dollars" or gov
eminent ownership Of our great trans
portation lines, than he was when he
made Haskell treasurer OF his cam
paign fund. 1t was as If he had been
president and had made Haskell Sec
rotary Of the treasury. We have no
doubt that he would have made the
latter appointment as quickly as the
former had the duty Of selecting a
secretary of the treasury been impos-
ed upon him when he was in the state
Of mind which led to the choice of
Haskell as campaign treasurer. This
is the way that the originating mind
works. 1t works in entire good faith,
to be sure; but no one can ever be
sure that it works with good sense
or safety.
