Mrs. Brown is one of those women
who do not shop for pastime-but OF
necessity, and on entering the store

the inevitable. The girl who advanced

Simple Attractive Place Cards

A young lady Of Albuquerque who

luncheon to a friend of hers in a let
ter recently received. The place-cards
were such q simple n pretty device.
and may prove a good suggestion 10
some hostess. They were name
cards with two Sits in one corner
through which a flower was drawn.
It's almost too easy, isn't it? 1t
promises mighty well, though. Other
place-cards are made with pieces Of
parchment two by three and one-haIf
inches in size, with a tiny border Of
the conventionalized fleur-de-lis half
an inch wide, stenciled upon them in
gold. Inside the border is a heavy
line of gold and within sufficient
space for the name. Others can be
adorned with tiny photographs Of
famous paintings, the picture chosen
according to names of personal char
acteristics Of guests. who are to dis
cover their places by the cards,
which, of course, bear no name. This
would only answer for a party Of in
innate friends, but the other two are
suggestive of possibilities.

The temporary injunction obtained
by the government to prevent the
Western railroads from putting into
effect their freight Increase today was
asked under the sherman act, which
forbids combinations in restraint Of

they could not take place without pre-
arrangement and agreement among
the railroads. If an Injunction Is con-
tinied II win have the effect Of pre-
rates and Of postponing any change in
rates until the subject has been thor

Looking ahead to u time fifty years
hence, a well known London motorist
predicts some interesting things. by
that time, he thinks. the horse Will be
forbidden in the streets, which win
be paved with something like arti-
ficinl rubber, so that motor cars may
run with iron tires, the cost Of run
ming time being reduced 10 a little
more than the price OF fuel and lubri-
eating oil. At the same time, he prophe-
sled that motor cars to carry three
or o IA people would be sold for some-
thing like $3.50. and, as everybody
would use the now vehicle, the preju-
dice against them would completely
disappear.
