"The greatest possibility for a
transcontInental line IN the country %
declared Jesse d. Taylor, OF Chicago,
editor OF the Southwest Trail the
Rock Island. Frisco immigration and
development magazine, this morning
In speaking OF tho Rock Island east
and-west line through here. And
the company Is not overlooking the
possibility either.
iiI Miles shorter.
"Why shouldn't this line through
here be the greatest transcontnental
like In the country. IT'S AL miles
shorter by actual mileage than any
other line between New York and
Los Angeles, and It has other vant7
ages besides the shortened mileage,
I am not saying that this transcon-
tinental service Is an Immediate cor-
talnty. II will take lots OF work
over many parts OF the system to de-
velop such a service but none OF tho
men In a position to know have any
doubt but that Il will be done. When
that day does como, and don't think
Il is so very far off, youll see the
finest trains through here that ever
went across the continent. They will
he the fastest and the completest.
The Pennsylvania. with It's track
rebuilding and improvements now
almost complete, Is nearly ready TO
put on sixteen hour train be-
tween New York and Chicago.
They can make that time

now In summer. From Chicago
those trains would come over the

Louis. over the Frisco 10 Oklahoma
city and over this line through here

with the present Golden State Linn
tied TO III Paso and west to Los An

the choice Of two routes from Chi.

would be the shortest.

Mr.. Taylor Is here On his second

optimism and he finds abundant ma

easy. Crop conditions on the Rock

the country Is developing at a rate
that Is making rich territory for
the Rock Island as well as for all
other roads In this SECTION Yester-
day Mr.. Taylor visited the count

will join an automobile party in a
trip out along the new line of the

Taylor has been watching farm meth

yations have made him a staunch
supporter OF the Campbell system

"The more see OF it," he said
this morning, "the more am con.
WINGED that the Campbell system
should be followed strictly by farm

raise crops without II OF course, and
good crops most OF the time, But
they can raise more every year, even

system. There are very few farm

Repeatedly has lt been asserted that women dress for each other. yet 1t is no- tceable that the thrifty members of the fair sex invariably reserve their freshest and most becoming t0ilettes for those oc- cGsions when men are in evidence. and that at dove" parties the majority of the gowns worn have either sesn their best days or been paipably rejuvenated iu one way or another.
 One of the best-dressed women Of fashionable suburban district who Ia noted particularly for the dalntiuess of her aft- ernoOn party frocks declares that they never cost her penay beyond the wuge of a seamstress. She makes 4 habit Of putting aside every discarded gown. with d view t0 Its future making over pas abilities. and now that Ing contrasting waist and skirt are so greatly the vogue.

the same corset shows a bust boning that effectively supports and suppresses the bust to fashionable proportions. The brassiere top corset. though not as prac- tical as 1t might be for warm weather year, will be worn by many women de- termined to acquire the well nodded long and classic lines, especially those who prefer the dainty handkerchief linen or naiDsook corset cover 10 the snug fitting tailored brassiere. For the extremely long models the honing Is carried down over tine hip far enongh not to conflict with personal comfort. 2he sections of hatiste or stucklnette and elastic fabric extending from the hips well 10 the knees iu many models. It is claimed that such models will do wonders in reducing flesh and moidlng the figure to cOrr-ct propor- tiOns
 Quaint and fetching headgear for small tots Is seen in the new bOunets of straw and various fancy weaves and different cOlOnngs. 4 dear little Quaker shape Is of the genuine soft panama with face and neck frilis of pale blue rib- bon set on with a heading of fancy satin straw that looks like dress braid. Here and there In the ruffies Is set a tiny pink rosebud. This pretty confeetion has streamer ties of the ribbon. Another of a novelty braid Is In make color. This Is fashioned to turn back over the side and stand up In a peak at the top. It Is trimmed with white satin ribbons Still another has ;ong ties made Into tiny rosettes with long loops at either side. one end crossing to the opposite side under the chin and fastening with a baby pin.
 For genuine comfort in house foot wear nothing quite equals the soft h. dian moccasins now sold in all up-to- date shoe departments in all sizes for men. women and children. They are prettily 0rnamented with beadwork in true Indian style. with beads that con trast artistieslly with the soft brown, gray or natural yellow tone of the skins. They are ideal negligee footwear for trav- cling, being easily crowded Into the small- est space h bag or suIt case.

Belts.

Fancy belts of colored leather with hand some buckles of novel design in gilt and silver will accompany the tailored or lln- gerie waist and the tailored street suit for spring. whether tne latter be of a for spring. whether the latter be of a nov city wOrsted. broadcloth. serge or one Of the highly favored rough silks that we are shown and taught to recognize as shan toong, mandarin and other oriental effects. But as summer advances and we begin to lay aside our wraps, the always becoming white belt will doubtless make the same place for itself that 1t has In bygone sum mer fashions ever since we have known the shirtwaist.

pendant ueckpieces that elaborate waists of dressy character, but the use of color Is always discreet. and therefore artistic.
 Neckwear.
 Much of the fancy neckwear seems to have been fashioned with the idea In mind that 1t could be worn with dressy as well as plain waists Heretofore when e esborate neckwear was the fashion. we always used 1T 10 dress up plain waists. but this year 1t Is of such character that the dressler waist may employ this accessory without criticism. Sometimes the colored note Is expressed in the col ored stock or jabOt. whirh Is very sen sible Idea, for in this way It Is possible to wear one waist with number Of diff ferent eolored suits and yet have the color note In the waist complement each one of them.

sad the JapGnese Idea seems to have ex- perieuccd somewhat of q setback. oriental models in waistd0m are not lacking and they seem to he quite aS enthusiastically accepted as the rather extreme oue-pece papil!ion. This. even more than the papilliJu. lncllnes 10 the short walsted effect. but as long Gs short waist and eonga ted skirt linens are the fashion. every woman. long and short of waist, will wear these new designs. Sometimes this effect Is offset by the surpllcr design O. the body. which shows n pointed yoke stimulating q chemisette. In one model the manGarin 0, ersleeve ix of such size as 10 almost the underpuff of plain material gathered Into deep cuff of lace and embroidery matching the jumper shaped body. Jumper effects in dreSsy waists are prevalent. Many of the best designs offered us so far are along these lines, and 1t Is quite evident that the many friends of the lingerie blouse will welcome this universally becoming mode in this department of dress.
 The surpIice.
 Less extreme models of surplIce per suasion show the fronts extending over only the top Of me sleeve. This design Is suggested for the woman who. regard. less of the vogue of short-waisted effects, prefers something which will tend to lengthen the waist while it broadens the shoulders. One such model is of Yalenclennes insertions entre deux with embroidery tucks of linen. The fronts are arranged surplice-wise either side of an inset chemisette of the lace alternat- ing with tucked bands of the linen on the cross. The sleeves are tucked in clusters. Inset with triple rows of the lace and gathered into cuffs of the lace and linen.

 Thls injection of new design Into e department of dress absolutely suffering for new ideas comes just at the right time. when women are happy to revert to sheer wash bouses after q season of cos tune effects in heavier and warmer mate rinls suited 10 the temperature Of the winter season.
 The new dressy blouses differ very mn terially in one respect from those of any other season or year. Very little plain material is used in any of tine designs; sometimes it k hacking altogether. the waist being made entirely of lace and embroidery bands varying fin width.

 Nalenc!cnnes Much Used.
 Valenrlenncs lace enters largely Into the construction of these lingerie confec- lions. There seems to be no substitute for thls pretty. delicate trimming. The French genre Is the more favored. not be- cause the patterns are any more attrac- tive than those In che Normandy and Ger mat laces but their hlmy texture seems more adapted to use with sheer materials such as our lingerie bouses employ.
 The entre deux idea Is particularly ia vored In this years modes-im fact lt Is one of the important features which strongly contrast the designs of thIs year with those of last. With the finer. sheerer bands Of needlework the Val. laces are used. but they are not EOre fashionable than the clunys. which alter nate with bands of eyelet embroidery 10 the closer weaves of linen.
 The Yoke.
 Very practical though dressy waists are simple models. with q shallOw shoulder yoke of the embroidery Into which the fronts are slightly gathered. The backs are also gathered Into the yoke, though not much as the fronts. for the fat back is ss important a consideration In separate waists as the most elaborate costumes. This shoulder yoke appears in many uf the piarer waists. It gives straight. clear-cut shoulder line and af- lords trimming feature which Is at tractive.
 Japanese Effects.
 Despite, the fact that the Greek in Hu-nce Is upon out fashions this spring
