time his publishing house became the
largest Of its kind i'm the world. Mr.
CHM, besides being identified with the
movement for international peace. has
done much to promote better condi-
tons between labor and capital. He
is also especially interested i'm the
problem of housing the working class

IMPORTANCE OF THE CENSUS.

For taking the thirteenth census of
the United States. congress has APP
propriated $4,000 OOO. and il is pos
sible that il will be asked 10 set
aside $4,000. O00 more for the purpose.
Not including the appropriation men,
toned. it has cost the country $751;
600 600 for the enumerations of the
several decades beginning with 1890.
The amount of work, increasing
tremendously from census to census
is vast and involves an immense guam
tity of details. 1t calls for experts
in many of its branches, and for
efficiency on the part of all who are
ntrusted with it, There is every
reason to believe that it will be better
administered during the census of
next year than ever before, because
the system by which it will be con-
Quoted has been gradually perfected
during the successive years.

On the whole, the styles in mems

These novelty details are expressed
chiefly by high heels, high arch and
high knob toes The popular heels

vamps now are about as short as they

compensates by its stylish and natty
