to be harmless, j. q. Emery of Mad

the efforts made at Washington to
have the federal government froWn
upon the use of the preservative.
After experienced chemists had
shown that bcnzoate Of soda as used
in many of the common food prod
ucts was harmful he said the referee

In June.

New York Aug. 24,-E. II. Harri-
man, who is now approaching New
York after several months spent IN
Europe, today sent the following
wireless message in response to a re-
quest from the Associated Press,
My condition is good. / am going
back to Arden for an after cure and
to regain ten pounds which l left
az the Badgastein cure. The condi-
ton of American crops makes the
outlook bright and business conditions
for the future are satisfactory. The

leaving the United states have unde.-
gone no change"
Harriman's statement of June
was to the effect that business in this
country was on very substantial
oasis and that the large crops in
prospect should bring in happy times.
idle money, he said, SHOULD be prop
erly employed in upbuilding real un-
dertakngs and not in the develop

The Hartman Stocks.
New York Aug. 24.-A financial
writer in reviewing the present con-
dition of the stock market, says
"a great deal more Importance is
attached to Mr.. Harriman's healtn
than would be necessary IL his se-
curtles were selling strictly on their
merits. But the recent dazzling op-
erations have so excited the imagina-
ton of the uninltiated that IL is diff
cult to get at the real value of this
group of stocks. especially as their
valuation is so vitally affected by
speculative holdings of other shares
by the parent company No one
doubts that Union Pacific and SOUTH
ern Pacific have wonderfully devel-
oped under progressive methods,
backed by the marvellous growth of
the far west. without which their
present status would have been i'm
possible. Because of this growth
these properties no doubt have "a
magnificent future: but VINO knows
what Union Pacific will be worth ex
segregation, or what would happen
to this huge combination, stll in its
formative stages If it Unexpectedly
lost its master mind?
The stock market has again been
dominated by the Hartman issues,
unfavoraDle rumors concerning his
health causing sharp decline in
Union Pacific. which in turn precipi-
tated large realizing sales in tAe gem
cral market. There has consequently
been good deal of feVerishness at
times and a conspicuously unsettled
tCnr, although it cannot be- said that
the undertone Of confidence has been
seriously impaired I'm the general sit
uation. Were it not for the fear of
excessive manipulation by the big op-
orators, there would no doubt have
been good public buying on the re-
action but the fact that the market
has recently been 30 intensely artiii-
cial is generally understood and crc-
ates more or less distrust. Al TN
same time the market still remains IN
] strong hands, and the probability IA
that the leading shares will be pro
tected for the present at least against
any additional violent break"

Alleges Conspiracy.

Fowler then takes up the tariff bill
and accuses Cannon of a conspiracy
with Aldrich in an attempt to pack
the conference committee by appoint
ing House members who would vote
for the Aldrich hill. He says

aCy and To have calculated the dis

PECULIAR WAY OF COOKING.

There lives a woman I'm Birken-

saucepan. One morning recently, af'

that the saucepan did not boil over.
After she had been gone some time
the boy looked into the saucepan and
saw the carrots and turnips boiling

lines and materials. A new satin,

tunic rises in princess style into n

Close clinging styles have not yet

One OF the newest girdles Is
waistcoat shape with turn-back rev.

falls from the throat to the top OF 1t.
Most OF the sleeves OF elaborate
gowns are OF the same lace or net
as the yoke. though there has been
an effort to establish the Sleeve like

In the very latest models the waist

A liking for fabric contrasts is one
OF the fancies of the season.
Rich olive green makes up some
of the most becoming street suits.
Lace yokes and sleeves continue

A novelty in fur introduced by sew

Very charming for women with

One OF the newest yokcs Is made

THE GIRL A MAN LIKES.

She Is neither pretty nor plain, but
she Is charming. Her clothes portray
her individuality, and are part OF
herself. There Is no clashing tone
I'm the scheme OF color. and her at
tire Is always suitable to tho occa-
sion.
This particular girl Is never OBJ
trusive. She can listen with inter
est TO the conversation OF her com.
panion. but can, If necessary, con
verse brightly upon various topics
OF interest. A shy man Is quite at
ease with her, and n clever man APP
preciates an intelligent companion.
This girl makes point OF study
inc human nature, and she Is well
rewarded for her troublc. for the
more she realizes the many trials and
sorrows OF life the greater Is her
sympathy with human beings.
And the cultivation Of compassion
and loving kindness is probably the
secret OF her power OF fascination

THE DECEASED WIFES SISTER.
Marriage with q deceased witc's
sister. although II has been lawful
In this country, was only legalized
in Great Britain quite recently. Aud
as such marriages are clearly forbid
den in "A table OF kindred and af-
finity, wherein whatsoever are related
are forbidden In scripture and our
laws to marry together" which
stands on the last page OF the Eng
lish prayer book. the vicar OF Eaton,
Norfolk, England, refused to give a
man who had married his wife's SIS
ter the Holy Communion as they
knelt together at the altar rails. The
vicar said he considered them open
and notorious evil divers" which the
rubric Of his prayer book authorized
him to fepel from the sacrament. An
appeal was taken to the ecclesiastical
courts, and the question has been de-
cided against the clergyman. Tho
question has now been settled by
law" and as for scripture" seeing
that the children OF Isreal were per-
mitted to marry a wife's sister when
the wife was deceased, the average
man would have thought II wise to
abstain from fighting a battle over
a divine ordinance which was intend
ed by its founder to a symbol OF
peace. The two English mOnarchs,
Charles II. and George ", who were
designated religious and gracious
in the prayer book, were never re-
PEELED and the church OF England
as 1t has no pope. seems to be wise
in leaving her members to the disci-
pline of the conscience rather than
to the discipline of the priest. I'M
doubtedly another link between
church and state has now been brok'
en-, and possibly when some OF these
high church zealots see a Baptist or
a Lutheran claiming the right to oc-
cupy the pulpit in st. Paul's Cathedral
in a disestablished church, they Will
be disposed to admit with Sydney
Smith and Voltaire that there are
"men, women. and clergymen," Such
contentious hasten the dlsestablish-

sEMI.DEcoLIETAGE GOOD FORM.

SEMI-DECOLLETAGE GOOD FORM.
The semi-decolletage as / call ~,

collete gown never seemed to me In
quite good taste for the rather mixed
assemblage OF public dining room;
and furthermore, it leaves nothing
in reserve to mark the greater form
ality OF really important and brilliant
affairs.
The real semi-decollete gown, when
II is not called upon to be ambidex-
trous or amphibious or whatever you
would choose TO call a poor dress
that is expected to look equally we'll
in daylight or lamphght, Is a genre
quite as apart from the decolletage
as from the day gown. 1t has a boz
dice that may be as low-cut in the
lining as a full decolletage. but the
neck Is dlscreetly yelled with dla'
phanous tulle or lace. IL need be

person could criticize as exposing or

II Is simply concessIon-this semi

centuries OF usage count for any

a fashion that is really economy; for.
