1t will be readily admitted that the

that blood does not flow so freely in

clares the Chicago Tribune. There is
"a color question in Haiti. not Of white

There are mulattoes who. out of
hatred of the blacks, would be quite
willing to call in the United States
so that 1t might put them in power

No ordinary black dress, except for
mourning purposes. is good enough
for the present fashion. no matter
what lace and embroidery may be
used thereon. Some color must be in
troduced either i'm the lining, which
shows through wolfe or chiffon dress

or in the belt. Sometimes this bit of
color is used in ribbon bands which
extend across the corner of the yoke

was made of black crepe de Chine.

pieces of soft taffeta ribbon, one of
brown and the other of palest sage

Mr.. Roosevelt,s Tour.

Inc most remarkable and the most
memorable foreign tour ever made
by an American citizen was that of
President Grant at the end of his
eight years administration. But it
was Grants distinction as a general
rather than as statesman that made
him an interesting stranger in other
lands. In the case of President Roose-
welt, who announces that he will spend
"A year in travel out of the United
States after he leaves office. interna.
tlonal interest has been aroused by his
administrative policies and his pic.
turesque personality.
Probably no other president. with
the single exception of Lincoln. has
appealed so strongly to the magma
ton of Europe. And no other has re.
ceivcd such spontaneous and so nearly
uniform approval throughout the
world. Even in countries much en-
amored OF hereditary rulers Mr.. Roose-
welt has been rated as one of the few
very great government heads of his
time, and in not few instances has
been ranked as the most interesting.
personality in public life.
For these reasons the president has
reason To look forward with rare sat
istaction to his contemplated tour.
which may or may not be a tour of the
world. 1t would not be surprising. of
course ii he should leave BY the At
iantic and return by the Pacific. for
he would have naturally strong de-
sire TO visit the Philippines and Japan.

banker read this letter several times
and each time his pity for the poor old
parson increased. Finally calling i'm his
stenographer, he wrote 10 the man that
considering all the painful circum-
stances OF the case, he would himself
buy back the 400 shares at 1906 the price
the parson had paid for them.
