GAYS THAT Mr.. TAFT'S RELIC
ioUS BELIEF is HIS OWN
PRIVATE CONCERN.
NO CREED IN POLITICS
CATHOLIC AND PROTESTANT
CHRISTIAN AND JEW IN THE
PRESENT CABINET.

WashingtOn.-"Sec Taft's re-
lisious faith is purely his own private
concern, and not a matter for general
discussion and political discrimina-
ton" says President Roosevelt in =
letter just made public in which he an
swers numerous correspondents. The
President says he deferred the publica-
tion of the letter to avoid any agitation
likely to influence the election.
The President strongly condemns as
un.American and endangering liberty
and civilization, any attempt to preju-
dice citizens either for or against any
man ON account of his religious be-
liefs
The letter in part follows. being ad.
dressed to J. c. Martin. Dayton, Ohio:
My Dear Sir:-I have received your
letter running in part as follows:
While it is claimed almost univer-
sally that religion should not enter
into politics, yet there is no denying
that 1t does, and the mass of the vot-
ers that are not Catholics will not sup
port a man for any office. especially

who is Roman Catholic.
Since Taft has been nominated for
President by the Republican party. it
is being circulated and is constantly
urged as n reason for not voting for
Taft. that he is an infidel Unitarian)
and his wife and brother Roman Cath
oiics.
If his feelings are in sympathy with
the Roman Catholic church on account
of his wife and brother being Catholics
that would be Objectionable to suffi-
cient number OF voters to defeat him
On the other hand If he is an infidel.
that would be sure to mean defeat. l
am writing this letter for the sole pur-
pose of giving Mr.. Taft an opportun-
ity to let the world know what his re-
ligious belief is
In his reply the President goes on
TO say:
To discriminate against thorough

to some particular church, or because.
like Abraham Lincoln, he has not
avowed his allegiance to any church.

dealings with his fellows, and fit by

he is particularly fit to exercise on

Eaict Of Eashia1 Calls

These stocks are attached to any
soft blouse. The color scheme carried
AT the top is somewhat OF a relief from
the already universal satin cravat AT
the base
To these high stocks are attached
HoDespierrc frills that drop nearly TO
the waist. They are in every form this
season and soften a severe suit in IA
wonderful manner.
Many of them are not in iabot form
but attached as two frills 10 each side

Others, TO go in blouses. are made
of triple plairings edged with lace AT

The fur pieces that drop around the

new lines this winter. They are not
in keeping with the long narrow sill

There has been no season 10 equal
this one in the use of Irish lace. This
weave has taken on new prestige and
popularity.
Evening gowns are made of it. loose
wraps are built of it. it is quite the

hundreds.

Small cravats to be worn around the

popular, as they are more costly. .-'~'
Frills of all kinds on the neck and

A linouist,

The charm Of Mrs. Ruth McEnery
Stuart's negro dialect stories was
greatly enhanced when she read them
herself, as she used frequently TO do
in the early days Of her fame. for
charity and church entertainments.
Her imitation OF the negro dialect was
excellent. and her small son, who was
very fond of her accomplishment in
this line. frequently boasted Of it
among the other children. Once. when
some of his schoolmates were vaunt-
ing the accomplishments OF their sew
eral mothers, he was overheard to de-
clare
