Hot Springs Va. Nov 1o,-Presi-
lent-elcet Taft and his national chair
man, Frank II Hitchcock, had a long
and pleasant chat today over the
many phases of the last campaign 1t
was the first opportunity for such an
extended and cordial exchange of
views, and at It's conclusion. both the
prcsidont-clcct and National Chairman
Hitchcock expressed their pleasure In
the Interview.
"Wc chuckcd each other under the
chin and enjoyed many things in the
campaign that were decidedly serious
before" said Judge Taft today He
added that Mr Hitchcock had told
him many interesting things tEat he
had not known respecting the pre-
election work, and Chairman Hitch
cock suid that he had had the pleasure
of informing TAFT that the campaign
had been conducted, so far rs he was
concerned. without the giving of
single promise or pledge which would
bind Judge Taft as president, either
In exchange for personal service dur
ing the campaign or for contributions
to the e4ugc.
4 nad known all this before" COM
mtutad Judge Taft, but 1t was grat-
iNiug to have the statement come dl-
rect from the national chairman at
the conclusions"
Mr. Taft was told about the cam
Iligu fund which Mr.. Hitchcock Ia to
make public In detail In a few days.
The national chairman said that this
fund was smaller in its aggregate
than amy similar fund since the record
Of such funds had been kept, and that
it WAS collected from every state IN
the union and represented a wider dis
tributon of support than ever before.
( Tho collections were made" NJ
Hitchcock explained, through tho
state ORGANIZATIONS. Until these or
ganizatlons were perfected and until
they understood their responsibility N
the cause, the income was necessarily
small and unassurcd. But whom they
were in working order the necessary
money began 10 come in"
Beyond these general statements
Mr. Hitchcock declined to 20 un'il tho
authorized publication is made. He
tlon that New York and the east fur

THEY HIT WHITE SLAVE TRADE
Women Say United States Report Will

Buffalo, N. Y.-The statement that a
report in course of preparation to be
submitted to the United States govern
ment will reveal the tremendous vested
interests which deal with the white
slave traffic, was made at the recent
session of the American WomanC's Suf-
frage association by the Rev. Anna

Mrs. Florence Kelley of New York

A LAND AFFAIR.

There's . land Of which we often dream
In the hush of the twilight hours;
But afar DER many an ocean stream
Are its happy wales and bowers.
Its singing birds are 4 merry crew,
And their songs are sweet and cleari
No shadows darken its skies of blue.
And no winter is in its year.
Oh, happy it were to wander there,
Where the fadeless roses blow;
Where the lilies sway in the scented air
In their robes as white as snow;
Where no ruthless breeze strips the full
Sleaved trees
In wood or in vale or grove;
Where the sunbeams play ON the silvery
That are calm as the skies above!
But, ah me no crafts are anchored
In it's harbors safe and wide;
In it's meadows broad, with verdure
spread.
But the misty phantoms glide.
For that land afar DER the trackless main
Where the boughs are ever green,
That our storm-to tossed barques may seek
in vain.
Is the Land of Might-Have-Been.

planned. 1t was the custom of the ma
tive cooks to strain soup through a
cloth. and clean one was provided
every day for the purpose. In my es-
tablishment we burn castor oil in the
lamps. The duty of straining the soup
that day was given to a wretched un-
der-cook. who took cloth which had
been used for cleaning the lamps.

the labyrinth from Ariadne and killed
the monster.
The dotted guiding line, shown in
the plan Of the Cretan labyrinth, fur
nishes key to the mlnotaur's prison
in the center. 1t will be noticed that
every path in the maze has to be
traversed before the center can be
reached. Looking down on the plan
of the maze this looks like a simple
and methodical way to reach the center,
but If the reader we're penned in be-
tween the high walls Of the maze and
invited to try it again he would prob
ably soon lose his bearings and get
hopelessly lost.
No key Is furnished to the solution
Of the Moeris labyrinth. Readers are
invited to find it for themselves If
they can. An entrance to the outer
palaces will be found in the top. There
are several shortcuts by which the
center garden may be reached; It, is
not necessary to traverse the entire
group of 5000 buildings. To reach the
center Of the garden will prove almost
as much puzzle as the Cretan laby-
rinth. And having once reached the
middle it will be just as hard, perhaps
harder, to get out again than 1t was
to find way in.

The labyrinth or maze is a popular
attraction at every exposition. Coney
Island has several of them, all exceed
ingly simple in construction, but very
difficult to find your way out Of once
you are fairly inside.
Coney Islands mazes, and even the
more famous and ingenious ones at
Hampton Court, at Versailles and
Scheveningen, are mere toys compared
with the two most famous labyrinths
Of ancient times, the plans Of which
are shown herewith. These are the
Moeris labyrinth, in Egypt, and the
Knossos labyrinth, in Crete.
The Moeris labyrinth was square and
built entirely of marble. In it were
5000 buildings arranged in groups Of
twelve palaces. The outer wall was
decorated with lines Of statues; within
are the twelve groups Of palaces and
in the center are the gardens, the walks
of which constitute a maze within a
maze.
The Cretan labyrinth was formed by
Daedalus for Minos as a prison for
the minotaur to which twelve Athenian
youths and maidens were offered every
year. According to classical mythO-
logy, Theseus, coming to Crete with a
band of victims. received the clue to

A INDICATED SOUP.

One often reads of the tremblings
and anxieties which accompany the
first dinner parties of the young wife
and housekeeper. Gerald Gordon, III
Life in the Mofussil," gives a bit Of
experience which shows that youthful
bachelor makes his debut as an enter
tainer with similar feelings Of trepida-
ton. Feeling almost as nervous as
girl for the success of his initial social
enterprise in India, he entered the din
ing room with his guests.
The table looked very well. In the
center was a large citrOn melon, with
the thick rind cut into ornamental
shapes. The flowers were prettily ar
ranged. When l viewed the dining room
before the arrival Of the guests l felt
well contented.
The critical moment was when we
sat down. l was prey to hundred
and one anxieties. These fears were
not allayed by seeing my right-hand
neighbor only making a show of eat
ing his soup. Then l saw the colonel
take one spoonful and order the serv,
ant to take it away. My own turn ar.

Every spring I scatter plenty Of blue

have neighbOrs who have spaded up
their lawns half a dozen times since

were and most Of them have thrown up
the Job in disgust and given up the
battle. 1t has not cost me $40 to take
care Of my lawn where 1t has cost my
neighbors $50. If people would hire
man in the spring to go over the
lawn carefully and Systematically and
then put in a few hours themselves
digging up the new ones that make
their appearance, 1t would not be long
before the sod would be strong enough
to choke the pest to death. It takes
work to maintain a lawn, but not a
much as some people think. The rea
