Skirts and dresses have an unpleas- ant way of splitting down heIow the limit allowed for the placket hole, no matter how firmly they are stitched, and some thin fabrics require very careful handling, or the stitches show and look unsightly on the right side.
 An excellent plan, and one by which all such trouble is avoided, is to sew a hook and eye at the extreme end Of the placket, hook it together and pinch the hook tight so it cannot come undone. This will keep neat and pre- vent the opening from tearing down when the dress is slipped off ana on

PROPRIETY IN DRESS

The art of adapting ones attire to suit the time of day and the trend of circumstances, whether it be for shop ping, calling, tea drinking or a func- tion, is a valuable asset. A bit of study over the matter of selection and little directing from an elderly wo- man who knows will make it impos- sfble for the tyro to commit blunders or offend against the canons of good taste. The effort thus developed will speedily start a habit and so the knowledge grows
 The first thing for a girl to learn is the suitability of materials. If her wardrobe be limited she must wear her simple tailor made costumes of serge, or a woolen mixture, for all oc- casions, but she will soon learn to vary the monotany by appearing in severe plainness for the morning hours and adding lingerie ar chiffon or ratine over-collars for her smart beautidca- ton in the afternoon. The untrimmed little suit will take on quite a new character with the addition of a dres- sier hat than the plain affair worn previoucly.
 Accessories have much to do with style values and white shadow veil gloves will completely transform a commonplace morning costume to af- ternoon Smartness, while a dainty job will add distinction and chic. In these days of inexpensive cleaning white gloves are worn indiscrlninately py~ many young women at any. time

BASEBALL MAKES A HEALTHY NATION.

"So long as the little sons of Uncle Sam play baseball says Chief" Bender in the August issue of the Boys Life Magazine, i've are goif1g to have a healthy, clean, industrious country, for as an exercise it is the best sport known. shall not pick flaws with other pastimes; it suffices to say that baseball contains all the points of running, throwing, skill of the arm and the eye, cunning on the bases, judgment as to what the foe are going to attempt.
 For the American boy baseball is the best sport because it is clean. It trains the mind as we'll as the body, and there is little element of danger. It can safely be played by boys of five and men of fifty. The heart, the lungs, the legs. the arms and the eye are aAl called into play in every sec- ond the game is on; that is why base ball has been the favorite pastime of the American small boy; it is a de- velopsr. par excellence"

From the Quincy, Ill, Wing
The mining and quarrying industry
is one OF the greatest industries IN
the United States. During the ad-
ministration of President Taft the
miners have prospered. there have
been fewer strikes than ever, and why
should the miners vote for change?
The best is none too good for the
working people of this country, and
they have been getting the best DUR
ing the past four years. Can they
expect anything better under the
administration of Democratic presl-
dent when history teaches us that
this would be an utter impossibillty!
Illinois has S6,3S9 persons engaged
In the industry, larger number than
any other state In the east north cen
trail group, which consists or the
states Of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Mich
igan and Wisconsin. Do the voters
of this great state went to continue
to prosper, or do they prefer to go
back to the old days when they
worked for starvation wages? This
is something for the thinking men OF
this country to ponder over. You
cannot get away from the cold facts

OF PROSPERITY
Julius Kruttschnitt and Otto
Kahn Tell of Increased Bust

OTHERS ECHO SENTIMENT
Politics Introduces the Only Element
of Uncertainty.

From the New York Sun, Sept, IL, 1912.
Prosperity for the United States and
it's insular possessions was predicted
by many returning passengers on the
Kronprinz Wilhelm Of the North Ger
man Lloyd line. Among the most OPP
timistic was Julius Kruttschnitt, Vice
president of the Hartman railroad
lines.
Mr.. Kruttschnitt bases his roseate
predictions on the reports he received
through the newspapers and from the
officials of the Hartman system. he
thinks that the prosperity wave VIII

Among those who are confidently
looking for good times is Otto Kahn OF
the firm Of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who
sailed for Europe on the Mauritania
this morning. In discussing business
conditions throughout the country Mr..
Kahn declared the big crops OF this
wear indicated q revival Of prosperity
and Increased business.
But Mr.. Kahn was careful to point
out that there was danger to business
from politics and unsettling legisla.

are saying, that the business revival
is going on regardless Of politics, you
can laugh at him." he said. 1T VIII

ALL SIGNS POINT
TOWARD PROSPERITY
Tremendous Business In Sight Which
Should Not Be Checked.

From the Gary. Ind. Tribune Sept IL
Orders on the books of the United
States Steel corporation as or August
81 called for 6,163,376 tons OF material.
This figure represents an increase OF
2O6,29 tons over the amount booked
a month earlier. 1t Is also the largest
amount of business shown since the
corporation began issuing monthly re-
ports of its orders, and has not been
exceeded In the quarterly statements
since September 80, 1907. The largest
amount of business the corporation
ever reported was S,4S9.719 tons on
December 81, 1906. Since the begin
ming Of this year the business on the
order books has increased from 5,OS4,-
761 tons and during a large part or
the period the mills have been running
close to their productive capacity.
This means everything to Gary for
the next year. If the steel companies
cannot keep pace with their ORDERS
with all their plants running at prac-
tically full capacity, the time Is at
hand when extensions will be In or
der and Gary is going to get its share
Of the extensions.
Elsewhere in this issue, the Tribune
prints remarkably "boomish' series

SPORTING NOTES.

'Swatfest'' with a Comedy of
Errors" sandwiched in, is the story
of Saturdays game here between
Forest City and Honesdale; in fact
there was more good solid hitting
done than has been seen here in
many a day. None of the pitchers
seemed to have anything to fool the
batters. Hessling started on the
rubber for Honesdale with a lame
arm and for two innings was ham,
mered numerically. When Breiten-
stein took up the burden he had a
big lead to overcome but as Carpen-
ter, the Forest City pitcher, was
being touched up pretty lively by
the locals, it looked for a time as
though we would win out.
We should have celebrated the re-
turn of Leslie Brader with a victory,
as his presence adds a great deal to
the strength of the team.
The feature of the home team S
work was the batting of Buck"
Faatz, who made four hits, the first
four times at bat, and played Casey
at the Bat" in the ninth with the
bases full. For Forest City the field
ers, Strattford and Wodischeck, did
some great work. The final score
was II to Is in favor of Forest City.
