Design for Costumes of SILK and Cloth.
A costume of changeable silk and
white linen that will be copied a
month hence In Ottoman silk and
cloth or velvet and cloth was quite
charming and novel. Over an under
dress of finely-tucked white linen (the
tucks lengthwise) was worn prin-
cess silk overdress. perfectly holding
the figure. The armholes were cut to
shape little over the top of the tight
tucked sleeves of the underdress; in
front the bodice was cut into a high
square and buttoned double breasted
for four or five inches; below 1t was
cut out to show wide girdle Of black
silk buckled with a linen-covered
buckle. Below this opening the clos
ing line continued on the skirt. half

away sharply to the back to show

THOMAS JEFFERSON

THE Denver News, April 13th)
Thomas Jefferson was born 1e5 year
ago today.
For one man 10 write the Declaration
of Independence would be sufficient
title to immortal fame. But for one mar
to write the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, to rewrite the substance Of that
declaration into the organic law of a new
nation as the bill Of rights, to serve that
nation as its chief magistrate, and while
serving in that capacity double the ma
tons area by a bIoodless conquest
these are achievements which mark JEFF
Persons career as unique among the
great men Of the world. He made mis-
takes ia his time and since his mistakes
were all written down they have all
come to light But the plumbers Of JEFF
ferson we're usually marked by pro-
founder wisdom thar his critics have
ever shown.
Jeferson's career was in the main a
sipgularly consistent one. He was first,
last and all the time a politician, in the
best sense OF that term, and even Amer
lea has produced few men who could
match Thomas Jefferson in the politi-
cal game But he was also man Of
broad learning and marvellous insight.
First among the practical politicians of
the world, he pinned his faith TO DEM
oeracy. He knew well that the people
are not infallible. He knew we'll the un-
reasoning temper Of the mob But he
also knew that there are aristocratie
mobs as truly as plebian ones; that
governing class" is marked by the same
supcrstitions, the same defects OF judg-
ment. as the general public; and has,
besides, sinister self-intercst which
disappears when an appeal is taken to
the larger group Hamilton believed
that If government could be made
strong enough it would save and pro-
tect the people Jefferson believed that
II the people could be kept free enough
they would establish and maintain a de-
cent government Jefferson proved the
truer prophet
The rule-of-thumb statesman to whom
politics is trade to be pursued for pri-
vate gain, have often charged that JEFF
ferson was imbued with French the
cries. !" The charge is true in 50 far that
Jefferson was big enough to be logical,
to see that il all men have the right to
be free, then none have the right to
be master. Il was this very logic, this
ability to reason straight, that made
Jefferson the giant he became And as
for the oft-repeated carping at the state
ment in the Declaration Of Independ-
ence that men are created free and equal
the reply is easy and plain
The Declaration of Independence was
not intended for physiological treat

/ Use. Il is and was intended to be polit'
ical document, dealing with political facts
and principles. Read in that light, the
criticized statements are true; men have
equal rights, and therefore must natur-
ally be free.
1t was characteristic of Jefferson that
he should urge the adoption of the con-
stitution in its proposed form, and then
Immediately proceed to amend if. The
first ten amendments, the bill of rights,
are his work He had already secured
the adoption of similar bill of rights
by the state OF Virginia. 1t is also
characteristic of him that when he had
ex ceedcd his constitutional powers and
contaminated the louisiana purchase, he
offered himself as the subject of inn
parchment, that congress might decide
whether or not the usurpation was jus-
tilted. The only time when he can really
be accused of Inconsistency is in his
prosecution Of Aaron Burr, and there,
as II to SHOW once more the sportive
mood Of fate, the Democratic president
was blocked in his aim by the restric-
tons Of the federalist Judge, John Mar

Directions for
Making Hens Lay

Feed regularly and adopt a regu-
lar system of feeding.
Don't throw the food on muddy
places. This causes the hens to take
cold mud into the stomach, which
is very undesirable. If thrown on
the snow, the hens necessarily must
eat snow with the feed and chills
the fowl.
In the morning feed ground food
mixed with warm water, and to
this add two heaping spoonfsull of
PRUSSI4N POuL TRY TONIC
Give light feed of mixed grain
at noon and before the fowls go to
roost warm some whole corn and
give them.
Follow these directions and your
