DESIGNS IN PLACE CARDS.
Decorative Effects for Luncheon and

Decorative place cards for lunch
cons and dinners have never been of.
fered in greater variety. Standing
cards outnumber cards designed to lie

Among the most popular OF the
standing cards are those representing
young women and men cut out in pa
per doll fashion and tinted in water
color. Gibson girl holding a long
flower box In her arms is one OF the
new cards.
Vatican and colonial figures pre-

Hand-painted Japanese place cards
are novelty. Sets of cards show

Necessity That President Castro BE
Called to Account.

The Venezuelan question is at last
before congress. No one will ceny
that the American government has
been careful. deliberate and patient
with President Castro and his nd.
visers. No ono will charge II with
jingoism or spcctacularism in connec-
ton with this vexed and obscure and
complicated question. which. upon
analysis. resolves itself into a series
of distinct claims and disputes. And
no one can doubt that IL greater
and more responsible power were i'm
volved in this controversy with the
United States our government would
have acted with far more vigor and
far less reluctance and hesitancy. II

come the painful duty of the big
power to discipline and coerce one
that merely presumes on its small
ness and insign!ficance.
In the case Of Venezuela our gov
eminent has certainly reached a stage
where ii must either use some form
of coercion or submit to what IL be-
lieves and feels to be grave Injustice
to persons and corporations entitled
to Its aid and protection. Secretary
Root has thrice demonstrated his good
will toward our neighbors I'm Central
and South America. He has made
conspicuously successful efforts to dis.
pei suspicion and prejudice against
us and to establish friendly, fair.
frank relations among all the nations
OF the western hemisphere. He Is.
moreover, an able lawyer and clear
headed statesman. He has earnestly
considered every objection Venezuela
has advanced to the arbitration that
we have proposed to her on several
different occasions. He has made all
allowances and discounted every
claim that was of doubtful equity.
Enough. however, remains even In the
least meritorious of the claims to de-
mand honest recognition from Vene-
Zuela.
Such recognition Castro has con.
tumaciously refused even to consider.
and the time has come for appropriate
action in the premises on the part OF
congress. Whatever is done should
be done thoughtfully, circumspectly
and soberly, however.

Mr.. Bryan Saves Himself.

tons and requested that he be the

IL then became known that large
element in the club was insisting
that though Congressman Sulzer was
authorized to invite Mr.. Bryan TO at

from Mr.. Bryan the following brief
but expressive telegram:

AS a rule women do not enjoy walk
ing. and in consequence they deny
themselves exercise and fresh air.
Ii is not always lack of strength
of the leg muscles. nor is 1t a lack
OF time that makes women shrink
from long walks. In most cases the
trouble can be traced to a lack of
knowledge of body carriage.
In some cases it is ill-fitting shoes.
Get shoe to fit your foot. Don't fit
your foot to the shoe.
In selecting footwear for street, Sc
cure that which will enable you to
walk with comfort-no sloping heels.
nor thin soles. Neither must they be
too large.
The following exercises and sugges-
tions will aid in attaining a proper
body poise for walking as well as

ISSUES ARE JOINED
BRYAN AND TAFT PLATFORMS
COMPARED.
Questions Of the Coming Campaign
Pretty Well Laid Before the vot-
ers in the Ohio and Nebras-
ka Declarations.

The Ohio Republican platform is
said TO have been examined and APP
proved by President Roosevelt and
Secretary Taft. and the Nebraska Dem
ocratic platform had the immediate
supervision of Mr.. Bryan. II Is prob
able. therefore. that these two plat
forms anticipate pretty closely the
platforms that are to be adopted by
the national conventions. and il is in
teresting TO note some of the differ
ences between them and the questions
upon which issue is Joined.
The Taft platform calls for tariff
revision. but in doing so insists par
ucularly upon adequate ''protection"
for American manufacturers. farmers.
producers and wage-earners. The
Bryan platform demands that articles
entering into competition with ar.
ticles controlled by trusts be placed on
the free list, that reductions be made
in the tariff on the necessaries OF life
and that reductions be made lin such
other schedules as may be necessary
To restore the tariff to revenue
basis"
The Taft platform attacks the dis
reimbursement legislation of the south.
ern states and favors the reduction
OF representation in congress and the
electoral college in all states of this
union where white and colored citi.
Zens are DISTINGUISHED" Upon this
subject the Bryan platform has moth.
ing to say.
,In
notifications of the currency laws as
will provide for the demands of com.
merce. satisfy the needs of all portions
OF the country and have at all times
the quality of undoubted security"
On this subject there will probably be
legislation by congress before the ma.
uonal conventions meet The Bryan
platform opposes both the Aldrich and
the Fowler bills, insists that emer-
gency currency should be issued and
controlled by the federal government
and that 1t should be loaned upon ade.
quate security and at rate of in
terest which will compel its retirement
when the emergency is passed. IL de
mands better regulation of banks and
specific security for depositors.
The Taft platform enumerates
among its policies the development,
step by step OF popular government
In the Philippines. The Bryan plat
form says: We favor an immediate
declaration OF the nations purpose to
recognize the independence OF the
Philippine Islands as soon as a stable
government can be established. such
independence to be guarded by us as
we guard the independence OF Cuba.
until the naturalization of the islands
can be secured by treaty with other
powers"
There is agreement upon certain
OF the policies with which the Roose
welt administration is identified. and
the Bryan platform, which is much the
longer of the two. touches upon sub
Jects not mentioned in the Taft plat
form. Some of them may lead to par.
usan controversies, but issue Is not
likely to be Joined over others.
