Simplicity Winning.

This wear will see more wide
spread adoption of simplicity in the
clothes worn by young ladies at the
school and college graduating exer-
cises than ever before since the reign
of extravaganza in such things began.
Few realize the heart aches and dis
appointments that have resulted from
the thoughtless extravaganza in dress
INDUCED in by girls whose parents
should have called a halt, but did not
because they wanted their daughters
to be dressed as deliberately as the
majority. No one knows how many
poor girls have been prevented from
completing their high school courses
and deferred from taking up college
studies on that account. There is no
doubt that they can be counted. in the
thousands. What shall be said, too,
for the parents who have sacrificed
everything. that the daughter Of their
house might be as silly as the rest?
The whole scheme of things was
wrong. 1t gave the girl false
idea of the Importance of dress. 1t
placed an unnecessary strain upon the
fathers resources and upon the moth
er's nerves and vitality. Only those
who nave passed through the ordeal
know what it means. More than one
parent has been glad to seek absolute
rest the moment the bedecked young
lady was out of the house. rather than
keen up long enough to see the exer-
cises. The fitting school students aped
their older sisters and the merry game
went on until someone had courage
to make a vigorous protest.
Moderate expense can easily be JUS
titled in the case of the college gradu-
alton; extravaganza never. rms year
the college girls have set the example
by specifying just what the outer
garment of the graduate shall be.
Simplicity is carried to an extreme IN
some cases. but even Puritanic SIM
olicity is no great hardship. rms Is,
or should be. an age when common
sense dictates some things. among
them dress. where the welfare of others
is vitality concerned. A girl is partlc-
nlarlv sweet and attractive to the
thinking person when she is goWned
in simple raiment.

A Century Old Quarrel Settled.

The settlement of the dispute over
the boundary between the State of
Maine and the province of New
Brunswick is attracting more attention
in other parts of the country than it
is in Maine The question is an old

the various state departments for the
last 1875 years. Naturally final set
Element. satisfactory to all the parties
concerned. is looked upon as triumph
of diplomacy. Provision was made
during previous efforts to reach an
agreement. that the matter should be
left to an international board of arbi-
tration, after certain time limit.
That time expired some time ago. but
the efforts to reach an agreement were
hnaliy crowned with success without
the services of referees.
At the conclusion of the war of the
Revolution the treaty which was
signed, left the boundary in doubt. BY
it America became possessed of what
was then believed to be the only ter
ritory through which highway could
be constructed between Montreal and
the Maritime provinces The British

Automobiles and Business.

New York economist has pondered
growth in the purchase and use OF au-
tomobiles. and the Indifference OF a
large number of people who formerly
invested all their surplus IN wall
Street, to the Establishments Of the
stock broker and bond salesman. He
has reached the conclusion that unless
these folks buy and maintain fewer
automobiles and put more money m
| to the pockets of the Street, the coun-
try is going to have one grand smash
before a great while. Just how ne con-
| meets the automobile traffic with the
state of the market is beyond ordinary

q method all his own.

bat from this distance it looks as
though the country was the better off

At the present time there are sew

automobiles, many more thousands en-
gagged in repairing, caring for AND

are made. Thousands of lives have

health pleasure have been
given and much of the rural section
of the country brought in touch with
the towns and cities, through the wide
spread use of the machines.
