Agreements Signed Permit ting Competition to Enter
 Bell Stronghold
SLAP AT MONOPOLY
Judge Kohlsaat's Order Follows I'm. medistely on Heels of Vail's De.
 chratf0n For Public Control.

Chicago, April 29.--A new face was put upon the warfare between the Independent telephone interests and the American Telephone & Telegraph Company by the order issued by Judge Kohlsaat in the United States Circuit Court permitting the Illinois Tunnel Cpmpany's automatic tele- phone system to connect with the wires outside of Chicago of independ. on toompanies. In face of President Theodore N. vail's recent declaration that monopoly Is to be desired by telephone users Judge Kohlsaat,e order was held by the independents as notable victory.
 One event has followed fast upon the heels of others in this telephone warfare of late. First Chicago was made operating hearquarters for the Bell telephone business of Illinois Indiana. Ohio. Michigan and wiscon. sn, thereby becoming the largest telephone center in the country. This was significant move, for the Bell concerns long have sought to prevent the completion Of the Illinois Tunnel Company's system in Chicago and the entrance of the independents to Cnicago by that system.

CHOOSING OF WALL PAPER

When having a room repapered the first consideration when choosing the wallpaper is to have the designs scale with the size of the room. By this is meant if paper of a very large design is chosen for a very small room the effect is stuffy and out of proportion, but if the pattern is small in proportion to the home then "scale" has been observed and the effect is better.
 In decorating it is good lesson for every woman to learn that in going from one room to the next the eye should not be disturbed by too sharp a change in the wall colorings.
 When one room opens from another colors which accord must be chosen for both. For instance, it would get

Staae Snow,

In "Personal "Reminiscences of Hen ry Irving" Bram Stoker lets his read CTS into the secret of how the snow scene in '"The Corsican Brothers" was made SO effective:
 All over the stage was a thick bl3n ket of snow, white and glistening in the winter sunrise-snow that lay so thick that when the duelists, stripped and armed, stood face to face they each secured frlner foothold by clearing 1t away. Of many wonderful effects this snow was perhaps the strongest and most impressive of real. ity. The public could never imagine how 1t was done. It was salt-common coarse salt-which was white in the appointed light and glistened like real snow. There were tons of it. A crowd of men stood ready in the wings with little baggage trucks such as are now 1sed in the corridors of great hotels silent with rubber wheels. On them were great wide mouthed sacks full of salt. When the signal came they rush. al In on all sides. each to his apnoint ed spot. and tumbled out his load. spreading 1t evenly with great wide oladed wooden shovels."

FILMY SPRING PETTICOATS

With the advent of filmy materials for summer wear, petticoats must be given a little more consideration. The newest models for wear with the frock of lingerie are of sheer, soft linens, muslins, nainsooks, etc. r They are fitted absolutely smoothe over the hips and down to the top of the deep shaped flounce, which, although a little wider at the bot tom, must have no suggestion pf over-fullness, as the present slim straight effect will continue of 1911.
 On one of the daintiest of these petticoat models the snapped flounce was joined to the upper part with a tiny beading of exquisite fineness. The bottom Of xhe flounce was finish ed with two or three little ruffles of valenciennes and was embroidered above the top ruffle in fine hand em- broidery.
 PettiQoats of white China silk trimmed with lace are much liked for wear with the frock Of foulard or pongee. Pretty models in black mes saline are admirable for travelling.

SYSTEM FOR DRESSING

One of the best dressed women if paris has "a rule she follows in choos- ing her clothes which has made he1 wardrobe the success that it is, says writer. Perhaps some girl who is planning her spring outfit by the re- ceipt. Says the clever French woman T buy only four new gowns a year l get one in the spring, one in the summer, another in the autumn and the last in the winter. In these gowns. too, specialize. I let each represent a class. One year I will get good tailored suit, and evening dress a fine negligee, perhaps, and so on. Another year will choose a morning gown, an afternoon frock, dance dress, and, of course If neces- sary have some remodeling done to last learis wardrobe. In this way I have good toilet for every occa- sion.
 Then I spend the rest of my al- 1awance on the smarest and best neckwear, veils, gloves, stockings and other little things that I can afford. These dress ct ceteras, if they are dainty and smart, count more for ef- feet in the long run than fine dresses without them. If you can't have both, get plain or conservative suits and dresses and add chic and vary their with little things. Hats, veils, neck fixings and gloves have lot to do with the smartness of ones An expensive suit with the wHong hat dosn't look half so we'll as less costly suit with the right hat.'

on ones nerves were the coloring a positive red in one room and bright pink or peacock blue in the next.
 It is only when rooms are positive ly cut off from one another that such liberties may be taken.
 As every room on a floor opens from a hall, tone must be chosen for that part of a house that will harmonize with all. A dull-not bright-red goes a dull green or a brown; any lone of these three colors is likely to be safe. But the hall paper must be chosen last, that there may be no mistake in it.
 The safest choice for hall paper is self tones, which are combinations of soft shades showing only one color of foliage or designs which are com- binations of soft tones of the same color. A hall paper whose background is one color with a positive pattern of anotber entirely different color rarely works out we'll

Tuning Bella.

What beautiful tone that bel, has" Is often heard. There are few
 however, who know how bell re. reives its joyful or solemn tones Al, bells after they are cast and finished must go through a process of tuning the same as any other musical inyrru. neat before they respond with Il ciear. true tone. Every bell sounds f-e notes. which muat blend together in order to produce perfect harmony. The tuning of a hell Is done by means o. shaving thin bits from various parts of the metal. It is as easy for an ex pert bell tuner to put bell in tune as It Is fer piano tuner to adjust his instrument to perfect chords. At first thought 1t would seem that a bell would be ruined should a tuner shave off too much at the last tuning. or the fifth sound. but such is not the case He would. however. be obliged to n,. gin over. starting again with the first tone and shaving the bell till it gave forth its harmonious sound at the fifth 'one.-Scientific American.

The management of the Bell in. terests deny that Judge Kohlsaat's order has the significance of a victory Tor the independents. Nevertheless 1t came almost as an immediate an- swer to the declaration of war against telephone competition which was an nounced in the annual report of the American Telephone & Telegraph Company recently by President Vail. After stating that public control and regulation of public service corpora- tons by permanent commissions al- ready has come to stay and will remedy many corporate abuses he said: Two telephone exchange sys- tems in the same place offering identically the same list of sub- scribers, if such thing can be imagi- ned, are as useless as duplicate system of highways ,or streets in a village not connecting with each other, but Teaching all the residents. Bona fide competition between local exchanges cannot exist"
 The Illinois Tunnel Company has about 70 miles of tunnels under the business heart of Chicago; it also has telephone franchise under which it must have 10000 automatic telephones in service by June 1. It has more than 18.000 now and expects to exceed the 10000 mark in a few weeks. The company recently went into receivership, but it is being re- organized. One of the greatest ob- stacles to it's success in the tele- phone field was its inability to se- cure telephonic connections with out sdde cities and states.
 The Interstate Independents Tele- phone & Telegraph company has connection with more than. 2,OO0 cities in Illinois. Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio Michigan Wisconsin Minnesota and Missouri. It's telephones are estimated to number 100000 which Is more than the Bell people have in the same territory. This comp any's lines surround Chicago, but had been unable to reach the city's business district. It also has recent ly gone into receivership.

ORIGIN OF MIRRORS

Few women who use mirrors evarv
 oay Of their lives know the origin of
 these useful articles. Among the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Ro- mans bronze mirrors were used. These were polished to such a fine finish that they answered almost as well as the present-day looking glasses. No mirrors of silver have ever been found. It was not until the year 1900 that glass mirrors were first used. They were made in Venice and they were pretty poor contri- vanoes in comparison to those in use today.
 One of these old mirrors has been for many years in the apartments Of Queen Mary. at Hplyrood palace. Previous to the fourteenth century small pocket mirrors were carried, 1astened to the girdles of fashionable women; they were esser..-, ---.- paniments to the t,ilet- ing glasses were small ished metal placed in = bo0es.
