VXTASHINGTON. - The nursery of
w Taft's boom for the presidential
nomination was room in the execu-
tive offices Of the White House
grounds, where President Roosevelt,
before he left for his home at Oyster
Bay, was shaved each work day. Here,
when the boom was a green and ten
der thing, its first young shoots pushed
TO the light. Here it was coaXed to
sturdier growth. Here, in full blossom,
1t was talked over and admired.
Frank Hitchcock was the official and
the president the unofficial manager
OF the Taft boom. The president, at
these heart-to-heart talks with the can
didate, was in a barber chair. A GER
tain White House messenger welded
the razor and lather brush. 1t was the
only part of the day when official busi-
ness did not claim all of Roosevelts
time 1t was Taft's one chance to do
most of the talking.
Even then, the barber had to be
watchful, and quick to snatch away
the brush or blade. When T. R. wants
to talk he sometimes forgets he is be-
ing shaved If the BARRIERS hand had
not a gamblers Quickness, the presi-
dent would have had the lather brush

When the commodities are divided
into nine groups every group shows an
increase in price in 1907 as compared
with 1906. For farm products taken
as a whole this increase was greatest,
namely, 10.9 per cent; for food, 4.6
per cent; for clothes and clothing, So

for the miscellaneous group, five per

The effect of the money stringency
in the latter part of the last year is
reflected in the decrease recorded in
all commodities during November and
December, the average price showing
a decrease of 3.5 per cent. below De-
tober. Of the 258 articles for which

A Woman's DUTY.

The woman of taste keeps abreast
Of the fashions in a way-that is, she
drops wornout styles and adopts what
ever new ones she can adapt to her
USE If she can afford it she patron
Ices firstclass dressmakers and gets
her moneys worth by wearing her
clothes two or three seasons without
losing her prestige as well-dressed
woman. There is an advantage in
this method, as you can see, and l
have been told by women who use
1t that there Is economy as well.
1t is no economy to save at the ex-
pense of good looks. 1t is woman's
duty to look her best, duty she owes
to her family. II she can secure 1t
by a small expenditure, so much the
better, but to save by accepting shah
biness is not creditable save in dire
stress of circumstances. Poverty is
an excuse for shabbinesS and nothing
else is accepted by the world. save in
the rare cases Of shabby millionaires.

The experiments conducted by DR..
Wiley are the first large experiments
of the sort conducted in the scien-

started in the fall Of 1902, have al
ready gone through a variety Of ex-

mouth. The shaving of the president
and the midday cultivation of the
boom of Taft started at l p. m. and
lasted half hour.
Taft, when he was in Washington,
often saw the president several times
in the morning. But Mr.. Roosevelt
had many things on his mind then and
no leisure For an hour or longer aft
er IL: 80 his outer office was filled with
men who had appointments.
At the one o'clock shaving time
came the first respite. The room in
which the president was shaved is a
small, narrow one, between the presi-
dents Office and that of Secretary
Loeb. 1t is used as an anteroom to
both offices. On the wall is a long,
framed photograph of a squadron OF
battleships.
At this window is a low-set leather
upholstered chair. Against the wall
at one side a writing desk.
When the time for shaving arrived
the low, leather covered chair was
pulled out from the wall. A neat foot
rest of two steps was produced from
under the writing desk and set IN front
of the chair.
