THE NEW "TAFT ROSE"

Philadelphia Society Woman Invents
Novelty For Lovers of Dress.
There Is a novelty in the market for
all feminine lovers of dress, which,
aside from its beauty and charm Of
adornment, possesses an unusual in
terest in the fact that 1t has been COM
mented upon admired and in fact in
dorsed by no less a parsonage than the
presidents wife, Mrs. Taft.
A prominent society woman of Phil
adelphia invented the Taft rose" for
by this name it will be known, Mrs.
Taft graciously giving b permission
TO have the rose named after her in a
personally written note to the inventor.
The rose itself Is made of t~affeta, the
petals being cut n shaped, wired.
stitched and turned. Most Of them
show two or three shades of silk,
blending In soft, beautiful tones Their
insttgator, who Is an artist, displays
this fact In her selection of colors n
blending, and each N Is an object of
beauty. The roses are about eight
inches in diameter.
The Taft rose" made its initial ap-
p~earance a few days ago, and it is ex-
pected that 1t will be one Of the most
popular hat adornments of the sum-
mer. OF course there will be attempts
to copy 1t, but the inventor has had it
patented, her license covering every
city in the United States and every
feature of its makeup. Every rose
shows the date Of the patent on the
back Of the last petal.

C~hieagoan Urges Government "a Study
Systems In Old World.
Representative Fred Lundin OF Chi
cago has introduced In the house q
resolution calling upon the speaker to
appoint a select committee of seven
members to investigate the various
systems Of old age insurance. old age
pension and annuities now in opera
ton in different nations Of b world
with a view to determining the prac-
ticability of establishing some such
system In the United States.
Mr.. Lundin believes hat by some ar
rangement of insurance. p~ensioning or
annuities provision should be made
during youth and middle g for the
infirmities of old age.
Experience has demonstrated" he
said the other day, "that there are
feasible methods. The need Of some
such system is greater in the United
States, where the people are improvi
dent, than in Europe, where through
postal savings banks and other go7-
eminent encouragement the people
have acquired the habit Of saving and
are not s~pendthrifts."
Mr.. Lundin's resolution has been re
ferred to the committee on rules, of
which Mr.. Cannon is chairman, and
he is hopeful Of securing a favorable
report.

became necessary to go to other lands
where a colder climate was found and
where greater needs developed mans

and thrift which began in those early
days has been halted at the arctic.

eff every person in the city of Bos-

would dress entirely in white from the
skin out and would go thus attired for
a single day the wearing of this color
for even such a short period would in
crease the longevity of every person
in the city by a whole year"
This is the doctrine of DR.. John Fair,
head Of Boston's newest cult, the
new life" DR.. Fair asserts that he
is now living in his third Incarnation,
the two former mortal existences, one
in the time of the Prophet Isaiah and
the other in b thirteenth INC four

bered by him.

Fair. cit is easily achieved by adopt
ing the teachings of the new life
creed. Dress always in white.
white is the prime principle of life.
The two words white and life are
closely related. On the other hand, I
believe there should be a universal
law making 1t a crime for any person
to go attired In black or dark apparel.
Dark is Synonymous with death and
should be prohibited, just as all
thought of death should be banished
from the mind. Do not think of death:
do not believe in death. Keep your
mind in a condition where only the
most cheerful and brightest thoughts
will prevail.
Live principally upon vegetables
and nuts. Abjure meat. milk, OIL and
flesh of all kinds as well as all stimu-
lants. Sleep eight hours daily. exercise
eight hours and work eight hours.
"a mans most critical hour in the
day Is the thirty minutes before and
after meals. He should absolutely
stop work a half hour before each
meal and must not resume work until
a half hour after each neal. Sleep
with your bedroom window open every
night all your lifetime. Always ave a
draft in your room"
