Blouse with vest.

The blouse that gives a vest effect
is always smart one, and this model
can be trimmed with plain rows Of
banding, as illustrated, or with fan
cy design executed with soutache or
rat-tail cord, or with applique, with
single row of broad banding or
with contrasting material or, indeed,
in any way that may be liked The
essential feature is found in the cut
of the front and the vest effect. The
ribbon bow is fashionable, but not
essential. In the illustration mercer
lied cotton poplin is trimmed with
straight rows of braid, but all waist
ings are appropriate and all materials
that are used for simple costumes, for
the design is just as well adapted to
wear with the skirt to match as 1t Is

used for odd waists and suits this de-

Farms Without Childrcn

Seventy-two houses, thirteen of
them empty, on eleven miles of road
through excellent farming country, is
what correspondent in Moravia re-
CARDS in his lecture as typical stu
alton in this State. The farmers
down that way are in large measure
elderly men. Among the original
families deaths are more common
than births. The problem of getting
help on the farm is distressing one.
Mr. Parker suggests that men must
be hired from the city or village
And of all the unhappy details OF
the unhappy situation the most so is
the fact that in the eleven miles there
are only twenty-five persons less than
twenty-one years old. Homes in a city
where children might be, but are not,
are deplorable, but such homes in the
country are not only lacking in one
OF the things that make home happy,
but are without one of the greatest
sources of the farmers wealth, and
are denying to the nation what has
been the basis Of its greatness, farm
bred boys and girls.-Syracu3e Post

Last Chance For Explorers
BY CAMILLE FLANrMARIoN.


/ have had the idea for some time
past of sinking a shaft into the earth
for the express. purpose of scientific
exploration, descending as far below
the surface as the utmost resources
of modern science would permit
The first result would be to obtain
an inexhaustible source Of heat,
which might be distributed and ap-
piled to industrial purposes. Accord
ing to the most authentic estimates
the boiling point will be found at a
depth of about two miles.
Without doubt we should also dis
cover springs of hot water, like those
which were found during the con-
struction of the Simplon tunnel in
1908. with temperature of forty.

subterranean rivers and cascades
which might be employed as motive
power.
The second result would be the ex.
ploration of this unknown world it.
self Who knows what curiosities
of geology and palaeontology might
be revealed BY this investigation into
these dark abysses of the earth?
What mines of iron, Of copper, OF
precious metals such as gold, plat
mum, silver, radium and Of elements
hitherto unknown and unsupported?
This idea has been forcibly recalled
to my attention in consequence OF
the recent earthquakes an,,. the ex.
tremely contradictory opinions OF
biologists upon the interior state OF
the globe. Is this globe liquid or
solid? From the most ancient times
scientific men have considered the
problem under all its bearings with
out having succeeded in lighting upon
any satisfactory solution.
The railway tunnels which pierce
the mountains have done no more
than traverse the inequalities of the
crust of the earth, The deepest shaft
which penetrates the earth was con-
structed between 1893 and 1902 at
Paruschowitz, near Rybnik, and is
about a mile and quarter in depth
scarcely more than an Insignificant
scratch upon the surface of our
globe.

United States Will Exhaust Her
Supply in Ten Years.
Within ten years the United States
will have exhausted her supply of tim-
Der available for pulp from which to
manufacture paper, and in that ex-
tremity her closest point of relief will
be Canada, which now stands ready
to supply the world for all time to
come" said Arther e. Millington. of
EsBanola, Canada, general manager
of the Spanish River Pulp and Paper
Company, in Denver recently. Mr..
Millington's firm has the largest
ground wood mill in the world.
AT present all our manufactured
products come to the United States"
continued Mr. Wilmington, but this
will change if President Taft enforces
the new tariff regulation passed by
Congress. The present duty on our
paper sent into the United States is
$1.67 a ton, and to this the revised
tariff bill adds twenty-five per cent.

al IS. making the entire duty $6.67.
The result would be to drive us out
Of this territory, and we would have
to market our product in England,
France, Japan, Australia and other
distant places.
THE United States will exhaust its
spruce supply for pulp in about ten
years, figuring at the present rate of
consumption. There is considerable
hemlock In addition to this but it
will only answer for certain grades
of paper.
When the present pulp supply is
gone there is nothing so far discov-
cred which will do for a substitute,
so Canada naturally seems to be the
place to which the United States will
look for her paper Experiments with
every supposed substitute for pulp
have been failures. Yet in the face
Of these facts the United States in
creases the tariff on paper and pre-
vents Canada from entering the field

Washington. Dec. S.-Speaker Can non and Senator Aldrich are to be routed by means of the postal savings bank bill.
 This at least is the present plan of the insurgents of the House and when they meet on Saturday to discuss ways and means of getting the upper hand of Uncle Joe" and his. machine, this will be the club suggested The in surgents argue that as President Taft and the Republican party platform have both pronounced in favor of pos tai savings banks. Senator Aldrich and Speaker Cannon are not In tune with their party when they oppose bhe plan. MT. Cannon has given 1t out very straight from the shoulder that he'll not stand for the passage of any postal savings bank bill until Senator Aldrich says the word and Aldrich as- serts that hen not say the word, un- til the report of the monetary commits sion shall have been prepared, which will probably not be this session.
 If the insurgents can get a postal bank bill before the House in any form this winter, they argue that big ma jority of the members will be obliged to vote for 1t and against Cannon or place themselves on the opposite side of the fence from the President and the Republican platform.
 From now on Victor Murdock and his faithful insurgents will lie low' for a chance to spring the trap.

STATE OFFICER
 MAKES DEFENSE

That Antonio Marcone, who stabbed and killed John Hackett a week ago, is still hiding in this city was the statement made by one who has been working steadily on the case since the assault occurred. State Policeman Frank Vireli said today that he was still on the trail Of Marcone. "I am working very quietly" he said, "be- cause the charge has been made against me that I rush to the news papers to get my name into print. Therefore I am saying nothing. but just saw ing wood. The people Of Bridgeport know that I was right when said that Marcone returned to his boarding house on Steuben Street after the stabbing, although the police deny it and ask me where my wit nesses are. It is true I did not pro- duce them, but I gave my word that I would not give their names and I would be a very foolish man to do so. I would never be able to get any more information from the Italian people in this city if ever broke my word witt them"
