the populace scooped up beer flowing

SOME people agree that TO tax stocks
and bonds, notes and mortgages is to
tax what people owe not what they
own. Well, If some people own what
other people owe it becomes their form
of property does it not? Government
is needed to protect their properly,
help them collect it, etc Is there any
reason why they should not be taxed on
their property as well as the farmer or
merchant or their property? Whatever
is property should have its just share
of taxation.

Many years ago the girls OF the

TIES FROM LINEN
FOR BYRON COLLAR
New Gigantic Bows Requir
Long Loops and
Ends.

Every one knows that with the new
broad collar, indiscriminately called
Byron. Eton. or Peter Pan, the most
artistic flowing ties are worn, but Il
is new idea 20 make them Of material
other than silk. Fine sheer handkerchief
linen IS the most useful and the prettiest
OF materials for summer accessories.
and when made UP into ties II is very
attractive.
The new ties for Byron collars are
simply bows made OF a straight piece OF
linen about five inches wide and twenty
eight inches long It sounds gigantic. it
is true, but tho lowing tie OF the Quar-
tier Latin must have long loops and
long ends.
When making such a tie IT is best TO
cut the linen an inch longer and an
inch broader than the finished tie will
be, or II must be buttonholed with mer-
eerized cotton all roUnd-at both sides
and each end Sometimes the embroid-
cry is done IL a color to match the suit
or dress with which It is to be worn. but
white is always best for these little
things that need frequent washing.
When II is finished il may be tied into
bow and pinned to the front of the
collar. but no gold or jeweled pins must
be in evidence.
The best way 20 manage is TO slip the
Hnen through the collar band in front
and then tie the bow. This hides the
collar button and the tie cannot Slip. AS
the band on these wide affairs is very
narrow. the tie which extends round the
neck IS likely to get cut of place.
Some of these summary ties are cut
with ends on the bias
All lace insertion and edging should
be tabCOed for wear with this new
wrinkle OF fashion Byron, though he
may have been odd, certainly never
wore lace neCktie5.

STOLE $500 SILVER
FOR HIS AFFINITY

NEW YORK, July 22.-After twenty
years Of faithful service with the In

en- lane, John Binsel. 4 forty-year-old
clerk. who is married and has two
young children, stole $500 worth of sill
yer toilet articles yesterday and gave
them to a young woman with whom he
was infatuated.
He confessed last evening, after he
and the girl had been arrested as the
result OF an accident. The girl is Mabel

She turned rapidly and fed down the

her what was in the bundle. 'She told
them some toilet articles Of her own,

an array OF stun such as she could
not possibly have owned. The detec-
tives took her to headquarters then and
she admitted that Jack" had given her
the silver. She also gave them the fol-
lowing letter:

tectives made her write note to him,
asking him TO come at once TO the Ply

SIDEWALK MANNERS
LACKING IN WOMEN
Rule of Turning to Right Is
Serenely Ignored-Trafic
Often Blocked.

Women are lacking in sidewalk man

similarly. even If in a less degree. is
no excuse.
The simple rule Of tI1eling to the
right is with the most annoying seren-
ity ignored when women want 10 gaze

Often they do not take the trouble
TO get close to the window, but plant
themselves in the middle of the walk.

who are forced by circumstances to
jostle them.
They form coterie5 on the thorough
fare for the PRONUNCIATION Of gossip.
Sometimes they have the children
along, and permit these to string across
from wall to curb.
The lone female may be seen cleav-
ing the throng with all the abandon
Of a rotary pillow attacking the winter
snow Some Of them pay not the slight
est attention 20 where they are going,
but they go.
They look in one direction and pro-
gress in another. They zigzag. amble
loll- They get in she way and don't
care until bumped, and even then they
neither reform nor accept any part Of
the blame.
A woman with an umbrella is thir1
to fear. From one with the serrate 2 nd
monstrous hat wise men flee. knowing
that she is too busy thinking of the
spectacular effect To consider possible
catastrophe.
A little regard for public rights Is
needed. There are traffic rules easy of
comprehension. and the observance Of
them would make life more tolera bic
and render easier the masculine duty of
being polite.
