SENATOR OWEN SPOKE.

Washington. Feb. 2G.- Both branch
es of congress got busy yesterday on

falling far short of the remedial legisla-
tiOn needed. and declared the latter
should be entitled. A Bill for the Re
lief of Wall Street"
Senator Owen of Oklahoma. in the
~ senate. also spoke on The Aldrich bill.
saying that he had. through ex-senator
Jones of Arkansas in 1000, proposed
legislation somewhat similar to the bill
under consideration. but with essential
differences which he declared would
have prevented the recent panic had it
been enacted into law.
Mr.. Owen received close attention
from the senators. and was frequently
interrupted witt questions, which led
to spirited debate. The Indian appro-
priation bill received the consideration
of the senate during part of the day.
The bill was read through.

for one instant let your eye rest upon
the face of the clock during an after
noon affair. No matter how late the
hour always insist upon your guests
remaining a little longer and also that
the hour is not at all late.
Here is a clipping which will make
Il man think:
A man gets so little out of his home
in comparison with the good his wife
has in it. If he is an ordinary bus
mess man he hardly sees it on working
days until after nightfaII. He may
have married a woman with such d
powerful brain as to be able to grasp
the idea that the human animal in our
present state of specialization is
rarely sregarious in the early morn
ing hours. and if he is thus blessed he
probably has his coffee and newspa-
pers in heavenly calm that fits him
10 carry from his home memories OF
love and not OF loathing. Then he
docs not soc it again until dark.

wear her hair as II 1t 1t just about 10

Her veil does not reveal a hole over

The weIl-groomed woman considers
that neglect In these little things is
full of shame to womankind
Note the well-dressed, tailor-built
woman.
Her cloth gown fits her without a
crease. and there is neither speck nor
spot on it.
Her gloves do not wrinkle. but but

shoes are dainty and polished.
Her bonnet or hat is pinned on

themselves to clinging effects than for

Supple satin is also in high favor
for wedding gowns, even when yelled

According to A. b. Hulit. chief pro-

and Scott City. Kan, has been con-
tracted for and will be built as rap

OF the board OF directors last week,
aggregate more than $4,000 900. The
completed proposition means three
