FALLIEREs IN STAINED GLASS.
Portrait Of French President That
Arouses crItlelsm-Is skilIfuI
Piece of Work.

Paris.-Charlemagne once visited
the city of LIE Mans and was so de-
lighted with it that he nominated
himself honorary canon Of the ca
thedral, an appointment which Pope
Clement VII. in 1883 conferred on his
successors forever.
A LIE Mans artist, Mr.. Echivard, a
designer of stained glass windows,
was reminded of this fact one day by
reading an account of a stained glass
window in the Church of st. John at
~Lunebourg in which the kaiser is de-
picted. He decided that the French
president should no longer lack an
honor that had been paid to the Ger
a emperor, and set to work on a
design showing M. Fallieres, the
president of the republic, and there
fore, according to the artists belief,
successor to the kings as honorary
canon, clothed in a canon's cope and
kneeling on a devotional chair.
The modern and the archaic r
allied in the design. The cope is
thrown back suffi GENTLY to show that
M. Fallieres is wearing evening dress
and the grand cross of the Legion of
Honor. The arms of the cathedral
chapter, three four-de-lis and three
keys, are balanced by an e~scutcheon
ornamented with the Legion of
Honor and the Gallo cock.
Below is the inscription in Gothic
characters: According to tradition,

president of the French republic, takes

NOVELTY IN HOME AQUARIUM
One That Is Made with a Picture
Frame Front and Intended to
Hang on the Wall.

A novelty in balanced or self-sus-
tanning home aquairiums is made to
hang up on the wall like a picture.
The tank is oblong, narrow at the bot
tom, but wider at the top. The side to
go against the wall is vertical, while
the front slopes up outward, as a pic.
ture hangs, and this outer side is in
fact surrounded with a picture frame.
The back and ends of this aquarium
are inclosed in a metallic holder, with
hooks at the top by which it may be
hung, and at the back between this
metallic holder and the back wall of
the glass tank Is inserted a picture, a
landscape having at the bottom in the
foreground a brook.
The bottom of the tank is covered
with gravel, and set in the water is
suitable vegetation sufficient to please
the eye and to keep the water aerated,
and then of course there are the fishes,
and when you have it thus stocked
you hang this aquarium up on the wall
to have the effect of a picture with
fishes swimming around in it.

SUCCESSOR TO D|AZ
Mexico Concerned Over Coming
Vice. Presidential Election.
Ramon Corral, a Protege Of Dlaz, and
Gen. Reyes, Idol of Army, Lead
ing Candidates Now, With Jose
Llmantour a Possibility.

City of Mexico.-What is quite gen
orally conceded to be equivalent to a
campaign for the presidency OF Mex
leo is now being waged in this coun-
try, the contestants being Ramon
Corral, the present vice-president, and
Gen. Bernardo Reyes, governor OF the
state of Nuevo Leon. These men are
active candidates for vice-president.
The election is not until next year,
and the race promises to become very
exciting by that time.
President Diaz, who has agreed to &C
cept the presidency for another term
of six years, will be 80 years old Sep
TENDER Is, 1910, and it car hardly be
expected that he will live out his term
of Office. 1t Is for this reason that
so much Importance is attached to the
election of a vice-president.
The vice-presidency of Mexico was
created by an amendment to the con-
stitution six years ago., and Ramon
Corral was the first man elected to
that office. His election was a mere
Formally, as he was in reality selected
for the place by President Diaz, who
is said to have had him in training
with the view Of making him his sue
cessor. ce-President Corral was re-
Gently renominated for the Office on
the ticket with President Diaz. The
nomination was not unanimous, as
some of the delegates to the conven-
ton insisted in voting for Gen.
Reyes, and others wanted to support

ter of finance, but the Corral adher-
ents were in the majority and their
candidate was nominated.
The nomination of Gen. Reyes for
v~ice-president has not been done In
the usual convention form. He has
been put up for the Office by lean Of
numerously signed petitions by his
friends and admirers all over the
country. 1t was originally planned
that he was to be a candidate for
president, but when Diaz reconsidered
his intention of not again being a
candidate for the high office, it was
decided that Reyes should make the
race against Corral for vice-president.
The anti-American issue promises
to become largely involved in this
campaign. Supporters of Gen. Reyes
are already making an open charge
that it was through Mr.. Corral that

is grayish linen with outline stitch in
dark old blue, darning in lighter blue,
and the lace matching the darker
shade.
One motif for the border and one
half of the corner are given, to be
traced on the linen by mean of car
bon paper and a hard lead pencil. A
plain, two-inch hem is put in, with a
row of outline stitch five inches above
it, and another row five inches from
this, which forms the top of the Dor
der. Then the motifs are placed be-
tween the two rows, outlined, and the
background filled in.
The cloth when completed should be
one yard square, with a two-inch edge
of lace for a finish. 1t is advisable to
Nlse a good grade of floss, so that it
will not fade, and in washing it is well
to put a good handful of table salt in
the water to set the color. The cloth
is quickly and easily made, and the
result sure to be pleasing.

Linen Ponaee.

The linen weaves in pongee and
Shantung SO closely resemble the gen.
uine silks Of these names that at a
short distance it is difficult to distin.
guish the difference. 1t is claimed,
too, that they are actually cooler than
the silks. A linen Sh~antung specially
recommended for tailor or outing
suits, or, in fact, any hard wear, is
80 cents a yard, u inches wide.
A linen pongee is the same price;
but Is finer In weave than the Shan
tung. This comes in stripes az wen
as in plain colors. A linen and cotton
mixed pongee at IS cents is very soft
and pretty for ~children's frocks or
small boys suits.
To H with the pongee suits there
are bags Of the same material, In q
pretty shape. with old gold clasp and

e. H. Hartman obtained from the
Mexican government a remarkably
favorable concession for the railroad
which he is building down the Pa.
cific slope of Mexico, and that the
great American railroad magnate will
draw from the public treasury of Mex.
leo as a subsidy for building this road
more than $10,000,00 1t is claimed
that Mr.. Hartman has other great in,
dustrial favors to ask of the Mexican
government and that he is lending his
aid to bring about the election of Mr..
Corral to another term as vice-presi,
dent and to ultimately elevate him to
the presidency.
Mr.. Corral, as vice-president, per.
forms the dual duty of minister of the
interior. In this Office he supervises
the internal affairs Of the country, in
which many Americans, among them
Mr.. Hartman, are interested, but his
friends deny that he has extended any
unusual favors to any person.
Mr.. Corral is unpopular with the
army, and without its united support
Mr.. Corral, or any other ruler of Mex.
leo, would be badly handicapped in
preserving peace and order. Gen.
Reyes is the idol Of the army. His
bravery has been proved upon many
battlefields. He also has the conf.
dence and highest respect Of a large
part Of the business element through
out the country. 1t is stated that Gen.
Reyes personally deplores the fact
that the anti-American issue has been
injected into the campaign. During
the long period that he has been con
stitutional governor of the state OF
Nuevo Leon he has always extended
a warm welcome to the investment of
American capital In that common.
wealth. Monterey, the capital of the
state and the home of Gen. Reyes,
is the most Americanized city in
Mexico. Many millions of dollars of
American capital are invested there
in smelters and other large industrial
enterprises. 1t has been through the
liberal encouragement offered by Gen.
Reyes to investments Of this charac.
ter that has caused that city to grow
and prosper to a wonderful degree.

I'M COARSE, UNDRESSED LINEN
Serviceabie Summer Suits That Are
Especially Good for Street or

The shops have fortunately gotten
far away from the cheap, glazed linen
snit Of some seasons ago. The useful
ness of the coarse, undressed linen
that does not crack and wrinkle has
been found out.
This material will take the highest
place for the ordinary coat suits and
~one-piece frocks Of the day. The new
scolors are quite enchanting in 1t. The
fashionable one are purple, mulberry,

Do you drink two glasses before

You should.
But by all that is hygienic do not

your teeth thoroughly cleansed.
People who know tell us that an
acid forms during the night in the
mouth and around the teeth. This acid
will decay the teeth, therefore com.
