Organize to Elevate the Drama.

Mrs. A. Starr Best, society and lit
erary woman, of Chicago, is president
of the Drama League Of America, a
new association that has undertaken
to improve the moral and intellectual
tone of the stage, She is one OF sew
ieral Chicago women who have de-
clared a war on the chorus girl in
tights and upon suggestive plays.
Their method is to stimulate the best
drama by encouraging an interest in
plays as literature. In this way it Is
hoped to awaken a keener interest in
plays as art and not as mere amuse-
ment. 1--WE aim," says Mrs. Best, ito
work with the public in an endeavor
to organize it into trained audience,
capable OF enjoying and demanding
the best plays. Thus far. the public
has been too good natured. 1t accepts
what the producing managers give in
stead OF making fight against inde-
cent shows and demanding attractions
of higher class. We intend to carry
on our campaign by organizing clubs
in cities and towns throughout the
country and by sending lecturers to
these places. New York Press.

She must discriminate in styles.
Put her in a bicorne hat, peasant
drapery, and chantecler colorings,
and she need not be surprised at crit
icism.
She must learn to take life quiet
ly. Excitement, rushing, and temper
are conducive to apopleXy and do not
improve looks. The red-faced stout
woman, looking ready for apoplexy.
is not a pleasing vision.
She must be dignified. 1t moves
the onlooker to tears to see the stout
full of airs, graces, and kittenish coy
ness. Her dignity should not inter-
fere with iollity; the hearty laugh is
a hallmark of avoirdupois.
She must learn to toy with food.
Fasting is not healthful, banting is a
trial to the soul, but greediness in
the stout is as unpleasant as it is
fieshmaking.
Beyond all, she must wear good
corsets and learn how to put them
on. It makes just the difference be-
tween mountains of flesh and a trim,
stylish figure, trifle too large, but
not repellent.-New York Times.

Enormous Coal
Deposits in Alaska
'eessssssssessessssesssss

Geological work of the Government
in Alaska shows an aggregate of 81
106,S80 acres of coalfields, and OF
these 769,2S0 acres have been sur
veyed in such detail as to warrant the
statement Of the Geological Survey,
always highly conservative, that in
these areas there is a reasonable de-
gree of certainty that commercial
coalbeds can be opened up. In con-
sidering the coal underlying these
100000 acres, the Survey, in re-
port to the National Conservation

is perhaps conservative to multiply
the figures of Is, ,104, 500, 900 tons by
ten or even one hundred to arrive at
an approximation of the fuel re-
cources OF this vast little explored re-
gion." And this does not take into
consideration, apparently, the 90.-
100000 acres Of totally unexplored
territory, geologically, but in which
coal is. known to exist and which, it
is fair to assume, contains its share.
That the coal reserve of Alaska is
as yet practically untouched is shown
by the statistics of only three or four
years ago, when Alaska's entire ex-
port of coal for year was but four
tons. Her shipment of gold for that
year amounted to fifteen tons,--The

New -"Bradstreet's" review Of
trade says:
Trade reports are still Of quiet In
fall demand, though the advance OF
the season and the force OF crops to-
ward harvest has aided in enlarging
isbbing demand at some important
western centers. Chicago and st.
Louis report the first of the fall job

trade at those cities, while the rather
better results of spring wheat harvest
are evoking more optimistic reports

"At the east there is slightly more
doing in some lines for fall. Cotton
goods feel the effects of mill curtail-
ment In increased steadiness Of prices,
and raw wool of fleece grades is still
active, despite the rather sharp ad-
vances noted last week. Collections
as yet show little improvement, and
are slow as whole.
"In leading industries there are few
new features. Building returns for
July show heavy decrease from q
year ago, much of which is, however,
accounted for by the reduction at the
metropolis, and there are still more
gains than losses at the countrys
cities as compared with the midsum-
mer month year ago. Iron an steel
are quiet, and the leading interest re-
ports that prices will not be cut, but
some western markets report price
concessions in finished lines. Demand
for automobiles and materials there

Suggestions For Mourning.

Simple black will be correct for
mourning for a sister-in-law. Only
blood relations affect conventional
mourning.
You should confine yourself to dull
materials, such as voile, Panama,
pIain black net, dril wool batiste,
thin, dull surah, serge, dull chiffon
taffeta and crepe de Chine. Fabrics
that are not appropriate for mourn
ing garments are brilliantine, silks
that show bright, glittering surface
and laces of all kinds. Suitable trim
mings are braids, dull ribbon, faggot-
ing, plain black net, folds of dull silk
and dull passementerie.
In millinery such straws as dull
chip and dull finished hemp may be
worn; also frames covered with net,
dull soft silk and dull gauze.
The trimmings may be black flow
ers (no yellow centres), dull black
ribbon, large bows of net, also black
wings. Moire and velvet are not
mourning.
Hose, and shoes should be black,
the latter in a dull finish.
Patent leather is incorrect for
mourning.
Belts must also be in dull finish,
such as suede or dull ribbon. Ruch-
ing. If worn. should be plain lisse in
white on black, without lace edging OF
any sort.
White lii collars and cuffs are
admissible. these accessories in
plain lawn are only worn by near rel
atives.
The frilled collars and cuffs known
as claudine may be adopted IL fash
ioned from strips of hemmed or hem
stitched white lawn.
A mourning veil is unnecessary,
bat the mesh chosen should prefer
ably be a plain one. as the Russian
and the octagon weaves.

Dots are not considered in good

It is not necessary to confine your

black accessories may be worn.
For morning you could have a
plain white linen or duck skirt and
simple white lawn shirt waist, fin

collar and black tie.
The cuff buttons should be black,
and the belt also. For street wear
you might add coat to match the
skirt and a plain banded black sailor
hat. The gloves may be of white
chamois, hose black and ties of white
or black.
For afternoons simple frocks of
plain black or white lawn, null and

a collarless waist, the neck to be fin
ished with turn back Dutch collar
without either lace or embroidery.
For more formal wear choose voile
or any of the dull finished fabrics
mentioned. These could be made
with guimpes or yokes of plain black
net tucked, and trimmings of ribbons
or silk are allowable.
Your evening gown could be of net
or crepe de Chine, copying any simple
