Columbus, July 26.-With James II.
Garfield in lead as candidate for gov

convention, but with its situation very
much muddled, delegates are devoting
their efforts TO routine work.

will be adopted without much of a

The Tariff Question.
Columbus, July 26.-To endorse or
not to endorse the Payne-Aldrich tar
iff law is one of the questions before
the Ohio Republican State convention
which begins a session of two days in
this city today. II is likely that the
act will be ratified as meeting the de,
sires of the party in President Taft's
state, but there are not a few insur.
gents among the delegates who op-
pose the commentator OF the tariff.
President Taft has made it very plain
that he will keep his hands entirely
off in the matter of selecting a candi-
date for governor Neither will he
have personal representative in
Ohio or any other State during the
campaign. He purposes that the
States shall manage their own affairs.
In platform declarations affecting the
national administration and forming
the plan of campaign all along the
line" he will continue to feel a per
sonal and party interest ,f
Senator Dick is to Be chairman of
the committee on resolutions at the

bin for her creations. The question
has been asked a thousand times by
astonished husbands who pay these
bills how IL is possible to put such a
price on a hat For the milliOnaire's
wife pays anywhere from $25 TO $500
for her chapeau. and the wife not in
the money class tries to keep pace
with her more fortunate sister.
Now about the price OF hats. In tho
first place the plain hat OF the expen-
sive sort is imported rrom Paris and
costs the millineF from SO 70 s25 as
against 81 to $40 only ten years ago.
This hat, though IL follows the pre-
vailing fashion and though this fash
ion may be ridiculous In the extreme
is nevertheless artistic In line and gen.
eral form.
Perhaps 1t is desirable to make the
hat a color to match madanSe's frock
The artist milliner has in her employ a
Frenchman whose business it is to
color hats any shade or tint. He
brings his dyes from Paris. and no
American can do this work And his
salary is large one.
The trimmings and materials for this
hat are OF course imported also. 4 sew
enty-five dollar imported feather may be
the principal part OF the trimming. Per
haps on green ground ii Is decided
that pink and blue roses will harmo-
nize best with the wearer's outfit II
these colors are not in stock monsieur
brings out his dye pots and gets to
work. Then one has TO pay for the art
OF the milliner In combining the nu-
ancss. And IL is a Frenchwoman in
the best establishments, too, who does
the work on small hats and toques.
She has been a worker for one OF the
famous firms in Paris-for Charlotte
possibly, or Georgette or Camille
Roger. II her speciality is the sailor
hat she has probably been with Marie
Louise.
The two hats illustrated are charm
ing Partisan models that are not ex-
IRENE. but at the same time are very
chic. One OF the creations is OF old
rose velvet trimmed with dark bronze
green cog plumage. And the other
hat is one Of the new soft fluffy felt
shapes. It is bound with velvet and
has mount OF choice cog feathers In
front.

Table Linen Up to Date.

IN the new table linen tablecloths
with designs are taking second place.
FThe newest cloth is a plain white
damask with a six inch satin border
with large monograms embroidered IN
diagonal corners or at opposite ends.
The advantage Of these plain cloths is
that they show OF the beauty OF cen
terpieces and doilies, having no pat
tern 10 distract the attention. Striped
cloths are also favorites, either plain or
with large flowers scattered over the
satiny lengths and forming the borders.
The poppy and ball pattern is one OF
the new ones, also the ball and bow
knot.
The round cloths with scailoped
edges and napkins 10 match are much
used. the only difficulty being IN laun-
dering them at home so they will lie

Madeira work in centerpieces. doilies
and cloths has ousted lace from popu-
larity. Cloths having the centers en-
oroidered need no centerpiece and are
used on polished tables without any
undercloth. But lace cloths OF the
cluny, filet and venetian variety are
very beautiful and still hold their own
Tor ceremonious occasions
The large dinner napkin is still used
at dinners, but the next size is quite as
popular. Luncheon napkins are hem
stitched with narrow hens and are
small designed TO be used only once.
