Wonders with Accessories.

Wonders in smartening effects may
be accomplished by the use of dainty
collar and cuff sets, especially when
these are embroidered in contrasting
colors. The lace, chiffon and net
jabot is of infinite variety and uniform
becomingness, and, Of course, waist
coat must not be overlooked. These
are quite possible with straight-front-
ed box jackets, whose fronts may be
discreetly pinned back to display a
natty vest Of brocaded silk, printed
cretonne and pique, such as any girl
can make If she runs a machine.
A set of wells is Of immense sar-
torial Importance TO the overnight
tripper, for IL she wears rather elabo-
rate hat she should shield 1t with wash
able chiffon of several yards dimen-
sions and also wear a face veil of be-
coming mesh. This latter will aid to
keep stray locks from blowing away.

TAKE TIME TO BE DAINTY.
Little Touches Are the Main Point of
Attractiveness.

Put ribbons through my corset Gov
ers? Why, it takes too long. | can't
spare that much time in the morning.
This was the answer Of girl who
was envying the dainty appearance OF
another girl, whose blue silk ribbons
in her corset cover were glimpsed
through her sheer shirtwaists.
The girl who complained she hadnt
time to be dainty probably devoted
hours to trifles that came to naught.
She possibly gossiped for Is minutes
here and there all through the day in a
manner that was not of advantage to
herself or her listener.
She probably always found time for
lettering or reading some foolish book.
When a girl begins TO think that the
cost of daintiness is too high she is
beginning to lose her first point OF
qttractiveness.
1t is her right to be sweetly dressed,
and she could so organize her life into
the proper channel that she could
find a quarter of an holt to give her
self the chance to have nice things.
This ribbon in corset cover is only
one of the many little instances TO
show that girl is living up TO all the
womanliness in her. She must take
time to be dainty.

ALL ARE WEARING CROSSES.
Pretty Custom That Has Been Re-
stored to Favor.

A generation ago nearly every wom-
an possessed a small cross in gold, in
jewels, or in onyx and gold, as a piece
of jewelry. 1t was worn as brooch,
Or as a pendant to a chain.
II was substituted in after years by
the locket, which has held sway in
every metal and in all kinds of jewels,
precious and semiprecious.
Now crosses are back in fashion.
They are slender and are not of the
Maltese variety which were in such
dominant fashion for Il while.
Often it is only gold wire, holding
diamond or vivid semiprecious stones.
The pale aquamarine is also favorite
stone to use.
Others are in plain gold with the
monogram and often the date of the
silt engraved at back.
As there has been such a wide re-
turn to the black and gold enameled
bracelet of our grandmothers, the
black and gold enameled cross to
match has come back into fashion.

Jumper Frocks and Separate Coats.

An excellent substitute for the
strictly tailored runabout suit is a
jumper frock Of wolfe or thin silk
made with either a short or a long
skirt and fancy blouse or guimpe,
the third piece of the costume being
a separate fancy coat of similar color
ing. An exceedingly smart costume OF
this type may be developed in blue
and white, the jumper princesse being
of checked taffeta, the white blouse of
tucked white Brussels and the cutaway
coat of plain taffeta.. In case of sud
den storm this dressy array may be
protected by the rubberized coat
which the sensible overnight tripper
never forgets to take, along with her
sun umbrella, when setting forth on
her brief pilgrimage.

What Women Have Done.

Mrs. NJ. F. Johnston of Richmond,
Ind, gave an interesting account at
the Boston biennial of the G. F. w. Z.
of the Art association of that city,
which is ten years old. Five nun
dred dollars is appropriated each year
for the purchase of picture,
and the council gives 500 Tor
the annual exhibition. The stand
ard in pictures and crafts has
changed, she says, and in the next rev
years much is expected that will give
the children the opportunity of great
err culture and knowledge of art.

When Shoes Burn.

Now that the time for outdoor sports
Is at hand, the athletic girl will spend
much of the day in her heavy outing
shoes and tennis boots.
II feet are sensitive, this may cause
annoyance, and burning to an extent
that almost does away with the good
effects of the outdoor exercise.
The change is especially trying, be-
cause the ordinary footgear of sum
mer is exceptionally light and cool.
IT, before putting on your heavy
shoes. you dust them quickly with tai
cum powder, the disagreeable effects
OF the change will be largely over
come. The burning is conquered by
the powder.

The atmosphere is clearing con-
siderably on the tariff proposition
at the extra session of congress. Re
ports from Washington are to the
erect that President-elect Taft and
Speaker Cannon are not at logger
heads yer this question, and that
the speaker has declared to Mr..
Taft that he is in favor of an honest
and thorough revision Of the tariff.
These two gentlemen have held a
conference in the situation and
there does not seem to be any differ
ences existing between them on the
proposition. That a tariff revision
= absolute necessary has been
lahown through the meetings that
have been neld In Washington where
the tariff was up for an investiga-
tfon. The facts presented there In
dictate that many Of the industries
which supply the needs of the peo-

The New York World and the In
dianapolis News have been kicking
up quite a fuss in the past week re-
lative to the charges made by the
former newspaper concerning the
payment Of the money on the Panama
canal to the French government.
Both papers thought they had run the
president to a corner and that any
body else connected with the propo-
sition would be silent. However,
some replies have been made to these
newspapers which characterizes
their statements as absolute false
hoods, and the gentlemen seem to
have the backing by which they can
substantiate their denials. President
both entered strong denials that there

IN WESTERN CANADA
As 1t Was Seen by a Writer Travelling
Through the Waving Wheat
Fields.

Emerson Hough, the celebrated
novelist, who made a somewhat ex-
tended trip through Western Canada,
during the past summer, grows en-
thusiastic in his description of ''The
Last Best West" which comprises
the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatch-
evan and Alberta, as all other writer's
who have ever visited that great
country. To extract from what he
has said we find the following:
THAT black strip across the land
scape-it was not the shadow of a
passing cloud, but the record of a
plough! These yellow graz bands
were the fields of stubble already
reaped These other bands of green,
of pale yellow, of deep bright yell
llow-they were the fields OF wheat,
among which the binders We're yet to
do their work.: lhe centuries-o.u

posture to the sun. Surely the plougA

the ancient wilderness just passing
into the first loose fingers of civilized
mans occupation.
Here was the wheat, crowuing Up
to the trail, high as the wagon seat
as we drove through. at the edge of
a grumbling COW man s unowned but
jlong occupied range. we reached
down and plucked off ripe wheat in
handsful, crumpling out into the
palm the full ear of triple-rowed
kernels, magnificent grain, the food
grain upon which the whole civiliza-
ton of the earth seems SO strangely
to depend; for, when the wheat has
come, civilization has taken hold of
the land never again to loose its
grasp. One who loves the open air
and the wild world cannot suppress a
sigh of regret at first thought of the
passing plains. at the thought of the
dead romance of the rancher; but
none the less, there must come the
soberer thought that the wilderness
of this world, as we'll as the scant
fields of the older world, belong to
the world and the worlds peoples.

course of a long journey failed to dis
cover one farmer who was homesick

Congress realizes that this is the
last whack at President Roosevelt
and the president realizes that he
will have few more opportunities
to present anything to the members,
and consequently it is likely that
there will be a strong passage at
arms between the two. with small
possibility of anything important
being accomplished. The president
can growl. but congress can sit there

The Brownsville incident is still
before congress. President Roose-
welt sent q special message to con-
gress enclosing a special report of the
secretary OF wal and which was Sc
cured for the department by two
special investigators. The president
says the report enables the depart
ment to fix definitely the identity Of
some of the leading spirits who took
part in shooting private citizens dur
Ing the trouble in 1906. and that the
colored soldiers were clearly to
blame. Senator Foraker enters the
limelight of the Brownsville affair by
Introducing an amendment in the
senate concerning the re-enlistment
Of the discharged negroes. which
places this question in the hands of
q tribunal and leaves the president
high and dry from having anything
to do with the proposition as to their
being taken back into the army.
