INCREASE OF ALIENS,

The improvement of the times has
resulted in a large increase in the
settlers in this country from other
nations the past year, the total being
over half million. or more than twice
as many as settled permanently among
us the preceding year. There was a
falling off in immigration from 7s2,s7o
aliens during the previous year to
751,7s6 in the last year. The aliens
residing abroad and making a merely
temporary trip to the United States
are classed as non-immigrant aliens.
There were s24,695 aliens, including
the nom immigrants, admitted into this
country during the past fiscal year.
These figures are given in the August
immigrant replrt of the department OF
commerce and labor. During August
the immigrant aliens admitted were
37,105 men and 22,672 women, the nom
immigrant aliens admitted included
S,4S2 men and 1878 women, and the
aliens debarred S51 men and 270 wo-
men. There were 30,27s citizens of
the United States who arrived home
during the month During the fiscal
year 370,684 aliens, including 174,590
non immigrants, departeds from these
shores. There were 10,411 aliens de-
barred and 2,124 returned after land
ing. Italians, with total of 1880,
formed the largest class of immi-
grants, with Hebrews numbering 37,415
next. The grand total of immigra-
ton from the fiscal year ended Sep
TENDER 30, 1920, up to and including
the past fiscal year, is given as 26,-
852,723.

Suggestions for Arranging Flowers

When arranging flowers in draw
ing room for any special occasion, such
as an at home, it is more effective II
the vases are concentrated in masses
of individual color.
A small table with tall vases at the
back, shorter sizes in the front and
quite low ones again Immediately in
the foreground, filed with blue sweet
peas, graduated up to resemble a bank
of bloom, with no other foliage than
than that of the sweet pea itself, would
catch the eye at once as uncommon
and charming. The same idea, car
ried out in pink, in another corner of
the room would look far better than
mixing the flowers unfortunately
and dotting the vases irregularly about
the room.
For different seasons there are many
pretty combinations.
Crimson dahlias with autumnal To-
liage and red berries of Micaelmas
daisies arranged with ears of golden
wheat or feathery oats are suggestive
of harvest thanksgiving.
Yellow chrysanthemums with ever
green and scarlet berried holly will
suit Christmas festivities.
A true artistic nature shows itself
in a light touch displayed in the ar
rangement of flowers. An inartistic
person requires double the quantity of
bloom, and often fails to produce a
good effect, for clumsiness mars the
effort.

SOUTHERNERS VISITING NEW

The south is wide-awake to the good
road enterprise and they not only are
inaugurating the work in all parts of
the south but are studying the ques-

twelve farmers unions in Oklahoma.
Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana,
are making a tour of the country to
study road making, and will include in
their itinerary a trip through New
England. Accompanied by B. F.
Yoakum, chairman of the executive
committee of the Rock Island g. San
Francisco lines, they will reach Nash
va. N. H.. next Friday morning. There
they will be met by representatives
of the Massachusetts, highway COM
mission, and will travel over the state
roads to Newburyport, and thence to
Boston. Saturday they will spend in
Boston and it's vicinity, and during
their visit will meet the state and
local road experts at dinner. Sun
day the party will travel through
southeastern Massachusetts, reaching
Providence in the early evening.
They will see some fine roads in
these rich and populous sections of
Massachusetts, and Rhode IsIand-as
fine a system of good roads as are to
be found in the country, as they would
find in the most populous and richest
portions of Connecticut.

ANSWERS EVERY CALL

A certain remedy for such attacks.
A medicine that answers every call,
Is Doan's Kidney Pills. true spe-

Many Norwich people rely on 1t.
Here is Norwich proof.
Mrs. c. s. Bennett. living at 107 High

four or five years ago Mr.. Bennett
learned of Doan's Kidney Pills and
after using them as directed for short
time, was greatly benefited. Being a
motorman, he Is subject to great deal
of Earring. and this, together with the
constant standing that is required in
his work, caused his back to ache. and
as result he suffered severely. II he
would take cold 1t would settle on his
kidneys and his misery would be ag-
gravated. That his kidneys were the
cause of his suffering was plainly
shown by the kidney secretions which
were very irregular in action and un-
natural in appearance. Doan's Kidney
Pills brought him positive relief from
all these difficulties, and he has relied
upon this remedy to check any return

THE RICHEST WOMAN.

1t is said that the widow of E. H.
Hartman was by his will made the
richest woman in America.
1t is singular, too, that Hartman
will, as well as his railroad work, was
a model Great lawyers make poor
wills, as evidenced by the will of the
late Samuel Tilden, which was broken,
but great business men seldom do.
Mrs Hetty Green's fortune is COM
puted at forty millions, and that of
Mrs. Frederick CORTLAND Penfield, who
was Miss Anne Weightman of Phila-
delphia, at eighty millions. Eighty
millions is what is said to have been
commanded by Mrs. Russell Sage be-
fore she began to divide up in benefits
to the public the vast fortune which
was left her by her husband; and
Mrs. Hartman is supposed to be
worth over one hundred millions, as
she had fortune of her own which
was great help to Mr.. Hartman
when he started upon his great career
as railroad operator.

COMMANDER PEARYs POLICY.

After having treated DR.. Cook with
something a little worse than con-
tempt, Commander Peary has entered
upon a plan to disappoint his friends
and the public. He has shown the
need Of good judgment from the start
and has either lacked good advisers
or the sense to act in accord with
their counsel He is not coming to
the front-he is going to stay on
Eagle island until his absent treat
ment of Dr. Cook firmly establishes
his claims and prove his words, and
it looks as if he would be obliged to
violate his word or else stay there
for a long time.
His folly has been in branding DR..
Cook as liar and a fraud; the mis-
take of his partisans was in declar-
ing that DIR. Cooks statement of his
itinerary in the polar region was alb
solute proof of its own falsity be-
cause no such speed had ever been
made on the ice by any explorer;
and then Commander Peary's report
showed he made 35 miles a day on the
four last days travel to DIR. Cooks
alleged 16, and which was 1-2 miles
faster than DIR. Cooks fastest. Com
mander Peary, after declaring that he
was the only white man who had ever
looked upon the pole, felt constrained
to say that it was possible for some
one else to reach the pole without his
being aware of it.
1t does not matter who advises him
TO sulk and try to do by a personal
war of words what DR.. Cook proposes
IN do In a r,,ore diCnifad and wore
quiet and more decent way, but 1t
must be conceded that he is the laueh-
ing-stock of the nations.

Decorations for Engagement Lunch.

Decorations for engagement lunch
cons grow more elaborate and orig
inal all the time. At one given by the
bride elect to her attendants recently
the table was covered with a filet lace
cloth, beneath which was laid gold
paper, whose gleam showed through
the lace. In the center is a huge
plain gold ring twelve inches in diam
eter. This was made from wood and
was covered with gold leaf.
In the center of the great wedding
ring stood a white marble Cupid with
empty CULVER, and at the base were
sprays of orange blossoms and aspara-
gus vine to give grace.
The favor of the bridemaid was
small gold Cupid chatelaine orna-
ment. The ices were nodded in Cupid
forms, the bonbons and cakes being
white and yellow.

There is a statue-rather costly to

station at Harrisburg, Pa. There Is

The Color Season.

Dull, rusty-lo looking colors, for the
most part. with red as a brilliant ex-
ception to the rule.
A particularly cheerful tone is known
as ripe cherry, promising big run
for hats.
Another shade of red that will be
fashionable is terra Gotta. 1t requires
care in manipulation. of course, al
though an all terra Gotta hat, with a
black froek, would be charming.
Brown on the khaki and healthier
order have been promised us for sew
eral weeks.
Amethyst and wistaria, in spite OF
their long vogue last year, seem to be
bobbing UP serenely.
Gooseberry will be seen, particularly
in velvets.
Emerald green Is another exception
to the rule for tones that might be
called dull.
1t Is almost garishly bright for cos
tunes. On millinery it frequently gives
just the touch needed.
