has enabled American manufacturers
80 To ignore the competition of Europe
that they can manufacture ON scale
lof careless expenditure and stlll be
able To charge prices which the Euro
lpean consumer would regard as eNtor-
tionate. on this point II should be
understood that the tarin board has
not contented itself with ascertaining
manufacturing costs merely. IL has
followed the cotton and wool To the
mill and the farbic from the manufac-
turcr up through the jobber and COM
mission agent To the counter of the
dry goods house and the tailor So
thorough has been its work that the
report will be able to show the truth
or uptruth of the common assertion of
the wooden manufacturers that the high
price OF clothing fabrics is not due to
enormous manufacturing profits, but Is
clearly due to the profits and charges
of middlemen after the goods leave the
mill.
How Facts. Were Gathered.
In arriving at manufacturing costs,
the board has aimed to gather its facts
by scientific methods This is To say,
il has striven so TO multiply its re-
turns that every showing could be
checked up time and again and the re-
suits presented not only I'm detail but
by comprehensive averages. In mems
and women's clothing fabrics the board
sent out into the open market and
bought several hundred samples, of
six 10 eight yards each. These were
classified by experts and finally about
nrty-nve samples of mems clothing ia
brics and forty-five of women's dress
goods were selected, the one hundred
thus representing the general
range, as to price. quality and grade,
of fabrics found I'm the dry goods stores
and tailor shops. Each OF the one hun
dred samples We're taken to the mill
that made it. where the manufacturers
selling price was ascertained. The
was then asked to fill out
a schedule showing the exact cost of
that class of goods as made in his own
mill. This was ascertained by the ag-
ents of the tariff board and the book
keepers of the mill working together.
The manufacturer was asked also to
estimate the cost ON three other sam
pies of goods identical in character
with the goods he had made.
At the same time. the four samples
were sent To some fifteen or twenty
other mills, with the request that they
estimate the cost of making them
as the original manufacturer had done.
The schedules to be filed out covered
every process from raw wool through
,ps and yarn, in the wooden and worst
ed industry and were of the most
exhaustive character. ON their return
TO the Office the schedules were tabu-
lated by a chartered public account
ant, who was assisted in his work by
a retired wooden manufacturer whose
duty it was, in part TO write to mills

Detachable Flower.

It must have been the girl of small
allowance who invented the detach-
able flower for her hat. Trimming
the winters chapeaux is so simple
that it is an easy matter to whisk
off one flower and put on another to
match the next costume worn.
Velvet poinsettias are a favorfte
flower on winter hats for those who
can stand the vivid red so close to the
face.
Another popular flower is huge vel
vet roses in rich dull tones. A new
idea is to outline the edges of these
roses with tiny beads to correspond
to the color of the costume worn.
Instead of sewing on the detach'
able roses each time, they are pro.
yided with tiny safety pins on the
under side, which are quickly adjusted
tc the trimming.

GREAT VARIETY IN COLLARS
New Models In Profusfon, and Many
Old Ones Retain Their
Popularity.

A large variety Of fall collars is be-
ing shown for fall. While the newer
models dosenot show the regulation
sailor collar, many are made with the
new shaped sailor, which almost
reaches to the waist line, but Is con-
,siderably narrower than the erofd style.
Large round collars and pointed col
lars are also much in evidence.
Hoods and hood effects are meeting
with considerable success. Some of
the coats have the collars made SO as
to have an adjustable hood which can
be used to cover the head when de-
sired. When unbuttoned 1T forms :
sailor collar.
Double collars, consisting OF a deep
cape collar coming over the shoulders
ana a small rundown collar, usuaiiy
of another material, are also seen III
the lines. While the majority OF coats
nave the turndown collar, few are
made with the standing military COZ

DRESSES FOR EVENING WEAR
Slight Change In styles Will Be Noted
In the Coming Seasons
Garments.

An unusually decollete neck finish,
extremely short sleeves and an irregu-
lar-shaped train inclined to shortness
are features having bearing on the
new evening gowns for fall and win
ter. Lace plays large part, both as
foundation material and for trim
ming purposes, every variety being
used, no matter what the texture or
pattern. A1lover designs or robe
gowns are used Jas an underbody, In
which case the filmy draperics par
also used for draping over soft I'M
TALLY conceal the pattern. They are
ished silks, crepes and satins, and In
these instances usually are cut In one
with the waist. Some of the newest
models show the allover lace exten'
sion below the waist line tn cutaway
coat effect, Cheyenne frill or peplum
In some instances the pointed effect
Is made in the front, with taperina
lines cutting off to the waist IN the
back.-Dry Goods Economist.

Cleaning Black SILK.

One of the cleaning processes lot
,black silk that is far from being
widely known is the coffee method. 1t
As as follows Boil some coffeo until
there is no further aroma rising there
from. Lay the silk article that Is
to be sponged on table or board ana
sponge on the side that Is to snow.
After the sponging is thoroughly
done turn on the wrong side and iron
with fairly hot iron, preferably one
that is kept at constant heat sucn
as the gas or electric iron variety,
though the other will do If rapid
changes are made and those changes
are as often as necessary, say, minute
intervals. This will remove the spots
far oftener than the malt liquor
process that has long been the fash
ion. and not only will this give tone
to the black materials but make the
articles texture appear new. Let dry
slightly before ironing.

How to Keep Young.

Some women attain graceful old
age by adopting the following rules:
Forget disagreeable things, keep your
nerves well in hand and inf1ict them
on no one; master the art OF saying
pleasant things: do not expect toe
much from your friends: make what
ever work that comes to you con.
genial: retain your illusions and don't
believe all the world wicked and un'
kind: relieve the miserable and sym
pathize with the sorrowful. These
few rules will, at least, make tns
world brighter to yourself and others

 Reassuringly pressing her hand, l was startled to find small piece of paper clutched convulsively within it.
 For Arthur" she explained under her breath. '.1 thought you might find some way of getting to him. Father and mother are so prejudiced.

 I could believe her. Mrs Fulton was a strong woman, whom many men shrank from encountering needlessly.
 "Yet your mother is your very best friend,'' I ventured gently.
 ''Not in this. not in this," she ob- jected. "I must get a word to Arthur Il must.''
