If the voters know befor,

as to the wisdom CT selecting

The Republicans, in OPP
posing the plan to have the

show plainly that they are
afraid to take the people into
their confidence. They are
simply afraid to let the voters
know how dependent they are
on the trusts for. the money

The position the Republicans
have taken in tliis matter, has
made Bryan many thousand

Pine Oil and Its q Sos

J, A striking example Of ;
seemingly useless waste prod
uct of the forest which has
developed into a marketable
commodity of no small i'm
portance is what is known as
| pine oil. The crude wood tur-
pantipe obtained from the
steam distillation of certain
species of pine must be re-
fined with considerable care
before it can be sold in COM
petition with gum spirits, the
true turpentine Of commerce.
By redistillaton with steam
this crude product is usually
separated into two substances.
The first, which is the larger
fraction, consists almost en-
tireiy Of the product known
technically as''pinene''. This
closely resembles gum turpen-
tine except for a barely per-
ceptibls difference in odor.
The other fraction is a prod
uct somewhat thicker and
heavier than turpentine, with
a yellow color and a very
pleasant odor. This is known
as pine oil
Hormerly this by product
had no market and was either
burned or sold for almost mol
thing in order to get rid of it. |
1t was realized however. that |
it was extremely poor business
to Waste three or more gallons
of Oil for every cord of wood
knowing certainly
whether the Oil was of value,
and it was clearly up to the
chemist to fine uses for pine
oil, and to the salesman to1
create a market.

should be avoided except for making
up party frocks, and even then a net
or chiffon cloth, or light silk, is a bet
ter investment for fall and winter
evening use.
Chiffon cloth, unlike chiffon pure
and simple, does not suffer greatly
from humidity, and all the nets, silk
or cotton, are excellent between-sea-
son investments. Be careful in Sc
lecting your net and avoid the filet
patterns. This because filet has had
such long run that certainly in the
fall it will be counted among the
passe designs. Better far to employ
simple dotted, ringed or flowered
net, and trim it with pipings, bias
folds or shirrings Of white satin or
ribbon in soft finish.

silk is used instead under net, chiffon

For wear under organdie, batiste or

than a delicately tinted lawn, blue

the complexion of the wearer. This
may be trimmed with inexpensive
german val lace, and will wash and
outwear the silk slip.
A very pretty party frock is illus
trated, which shows the apron effect
now growing in popularity. This would
be most effective in soft finished

If batiste insertion is employed, gel

TINCLE SAM is getting wise on one
~ point and that is that foreign coun-
tries like to have him send millionaires
as his representatives to their lands
there to spend American gold lavishly,
but are disposed to be decidedly
niggardly when it comes to their rep
resentatives spending money in
America
Secretary Root is credited with be-
ing about to turn this situation to
good account. Mr.. Root resents the
position of the foreign governments in
requiring money qualification of an
American ambassador.
OF course what ambassadors and
ministers spend here on private en-
terprises for their governments can
not be reckoned. But their entertain
ments and general mode of living are
an open page. The man who draws
the biggest salary in Washington is
James Bryce, who gets $4,000 annual
ly and an additional $4,000 year for
contingent expenses. Mr.. Bryce has
one of the finest mansions which the
capital can boast, completely fur
nished, with an extra fund to pay for
any necessary repairs or new equip
meut. He has linen, silver and glass

the knee in straight lines, having a
square slit high on the sides. falling
over the demi-traine skirt, bordered on
the bottom with light tracery of pale
mauve and in deep shade of mauve
floss. Upon the tunic was an all
round border of white and mauve silk
embroidery, embracing three cross
rows of valenciennes insertions, dyed

SMALL RUFFLE is GOOD.
Becoming Arrangement Of TuIIe in
White or Colors


The ruffle of the moment Is a very
becoming arrangement of tulle in
white or colors, the middle of which
is under the chin, and the strings tied
tightly at the back.
One great objection to the long
ruffie is that 1t hides the often very
pretty line of the shoulders, but the
little neck ruff is not open to this OBJ
lection. The wide-brimmed hats sur
rounded by ruchings of silk or tulle
ought always to have a neck ruff to
match the latter, so very becoming is
the effect. For instance, one of the new
small brown straw toques, with tan
brown ruche of tulle, this repeated in
the ruff round the neck, goes beau
tifully with a clinging brown alpaca
frock, and is rendered inexpressibly
dainty by the addition of a touch or
two of soft gray blue tulle, just rest
ing on the hair,
1t is pity that one cannot describe
in words the exact tone of this very
becoming soft blue. 1t is not tur.
quoise,, and it is not natter, but is
very much softer, and paler, and
grayer than either.

TaIIor.Made Tussore.

Tussore is beautiful fabric for the
tailor to work upon. Shantung is not
so good for this purpose, though it
looks very we'll in the semi-fitting
coats; but the expensive tussores are
the ones that do most Justice to sar-
torial art. In way there is a great
deal of comfort in the tailor-made of
the hour, for it shows a somewhat
fuller skirt, or, at least one in which
you can walk. This is in direct con-
trast to the ultra-tight, clinging crepe
de chine and such-like fabrics; but the
tailor gives us the opportunity of
wearing practical and yet up-to-date
garment. For instance, in some of the
practical travelling tussores, as well
as in the very smart ones, the plated
skirt made just to clear the ground
is much affected. There is also new
skirt which 10 plain at the top and
