REDUCE LUMBER RATES.

Washington, ID. c.. Nov. est has
developed that the representatives
OF lumber interests who came mere
to argue before the ways and means
committee against the repeal Of the
duty on lumber or an increase OF
that duty have been considerably dis
concerted by developments Mt the
hearing. In tho course OF the hear
ing Chairman Payne asked questions
that supporters of repeal of the
duty construed as friendly to them
and that lumber interests represents
tives viewed In the same light. The
inference Is drawn that Representa-
tives Hill OF Connecticut and Crum-
packer OF Indiana are for reducing
the tariff on lumber or wiping II out.
and perhaps other republicans, too.
This has led many of the lumber men
to fear that the lumber interests may
be made the scapegoat In the forth
coming tariff bill and It is learned
from one of the most prominent OF
Pacific coast lumber representatives,
that change Of plans has been prac-
tically made. II was the intention or
the lumber interests, especially on
the Pacific coast, TO fight for an In
crease Of duty. Now, they are going
to fight for maintenance OF the pres
ent duty, knowing they cannot hope
for more than this.

These are the Bens, the Bobs, the
Jims Of the next president. AS boys
and men they have been closest to
his heart. He knows their wives and
their children. No matter how busy,
he is always ready to hear about a
new baby or grandchild or an old
,classmate. With many he keeps up a
correspondence. He may not appoint
as many of them to Office as Roose-
welt did Rough Riders, but the White
House doors are sure to be open to
them. These are the men who will
come and get their names in the pa.
pers, instead Of the bristling, noisy
Rough Riders.
A few of the most prominent mem.
bers of the class are:
Herbert w. Bowen, diplomatist; he
was serving as minister to Venezue-
la while Taft was secretary of war,
and was recalled by President Roose
welt because of certain diplomatic in
discretions. Before being appointed to
Venezuela he was minister to Persia.
w. H. Law, former member of the
Connecticut legislature and former as.
sistant tax commissioner of New York.
James Briggs McEwan, Republican
leader in Albany and for three terms
member of the state senate.
Merrill Moores, formerly assistant
attorney general Of Indiana.

member of congress from Connecticut.

THE next mistress Of the White
House will go shopping just as ladies
of less exalted position, in the city
stores. The Washington store-keep-
ers are elated. In the next three
months Washington women will order
enough gowns to last two years. 1t is
always so in the winter preceding the
Inauguration of new president.
That Mrs. Taft Is so friendly to
Washington means many thousands of
dollars to them. Not many years has
president been elected who practi-
cally considered Washington his home.
In the matter of clothes Mrs. Taft
is woman Of the plain type. While
well and usually handsomely gowned
her clothes are never the first thing
which attracts the attention of the
stranger. Her taste runs to the plain
cloth and rich silks. She is en-
phatically not the tailor-made silk
4 lined woman Her favorite colors for
'the street are brown and gray and for
evening wear pink, almost invariably.
She has never appeared in an i'm.
ported gown. She has had a number

preciates as much as this. True, Their.
are collapsible coat hangers nov
which come in small boxes. but the
majority of visitors do not possess
these.
The large hangers are inconvenient
to put In trunk, or a dress suit case,
and therefore they are gratefully re-
ceived when found hanging In the
closet.
A girl should not only empty the
closet and the bureau drawers for her
guest, but she should have fresh pa
per laid In both. 1t is not pleasant
for a visitor to have to put all her
nice accessories and clothes over
shreds, dust, crooked pins, and pos
sibly soiled handkerchief or collar.
The girl who does not empty the
closet for the guest, and expects her
to hang up her incest clothes on any
hook or in any device she can find
among other peoples clothes, is a
careless hostess and does not deserve
the visits of interesting friends.
Another thing that a girl should
always provide for her guest is enough
light. Every one has possibly gone
through the experience of being shown
NV to the guest room, where one is
to live for awhile, and finds, upon try.
ing to dress for dinner, that the light
is dim and badly placed.
One cannot see in the mirror or how
to fasten a frock. She is conscious of
the distressing fact that for the en-.
tire time of her stay she will never
know how her hair looks and wheth.
er her gown is fastened upside down
or not.
In these days Of easy lighting a girl
should see to it that each mirror in a
bedroom has the proper light at the
side or above 1t. If she can't manage
this she must be sure to get two or
four candles, put them in any kind OF
candlesticks, and place them in a
row in front of the looking glass.
She should put half dozen fresh
ones in the room so that the visitor
will feel sure OF having enough light.
