Crematories Increasing,

There has been a marked increase
in Europe in the use of cremation
as method Of disposing of the dead.
Last year there were 1856 cremations
in Germany, as against $500 in 1910.
At present there are thirty crema-
tories in Germany and almost as
many in Italy. In England there
were 1893 cremations in 1911, as
against $40 in 1910. Recently Swlt-
zerland has passed law which prac-
tically makes interment exceptional.

and this proposition was accepted

The payment Of this blood tax
originally three white mares. but later
three cows of a particular breed and
color-has been made ever since, the
custom-it is nothing more having
survived even the great wars In which
both France and Spain have engaged,
and the storm Of the French revolu-

Yearly the representative men Of
the two valleys meet on the frontier,
at certain stone, remote from any
town, and go through the ceremony
of presenting and receiving the cattle.
The order of procedure. which is
elaborate and impressive, Is fixed by
a document bearing the date 1875,
though the tax was paid hundred
years prior to that time. f.s73

Blind Potatoes.

Everyone knows, of course, that po
tatoes have eyes, but it may be news
that they are sometimes afflicted with
blindness. A recent publication of an
English agricultural authority makes
the assertion that some potatoes are
afflicted with blindness, and says the
disease is so called on account of it's
completely destroying the eyes of tu-
bers. making them worthless for seed.

THAT Capt. Michael Evans, in

Attorney w. w. Wheelock,
special prosecutor for the COM
mission, quizzed Hunt, who told
in detail in his work in the so
calledNlabor slugger cases, and his
crusade against pickpockets and
other thieves. He gave a list of
10 gambling houses raided by his
men, and admitted having

the places named.

horn had an understanding with
certain women to visit his saloon
and take men to a hotel which he
owned.

he be acquitted he could have the

Suppose a police official was
suspended, and on hearing Of
charges, a person who had been
arrested and photographed, but
not convicted, appeared against
him; the suspended official, want

Hunt.
The incident occurred in the
trial of a police official recently

Hunt denied knowledge of
raid made by detectives from the
detective bureau in which sup

to the custodian of stolen prop

FASHION LETTER FROM
 PICTORIAL REVIEW

Especially written for the City Beautiful Edition of the Pine Bluff Graphic by Rose Berrien.
 As soon as the first mild day ar- rlves with the latent odors of spring in the air all women have to face the inevitable clothes problem. In some instances it means the development of new garments-in others merely the remodeling of old ones according to the latest mandates of fashion.
 The plain tailored suit of light weight material is evidently the lead Ing requisite after winter of heavy long coats and furs. In order to ascertain the correct style and the most fashionable materials essential to the construction of an up-to-date costume, the shops are freuuented daily and the popular fashion maga- zine pages are eagerly and carefully scanned for the newest ideas. Pictor- ial Review offers the following sug- gestlons which should be borne in mind when ordering or making a suit or any garment.
 me jacket of the spring suit is a smart length-neither too short ar too long. The wrist or twenty-six inch length IS conceded to be correct but on some models especially made on the Russian blouse order, the nenlum IS cut away in front and gradually slopes with easy grace toward the pack, terminating about twelve inches below the Waistline. This cut is us- ually seen on more or less elaborate ahalls where the peplum as we'll as the 'ese UT the suit is frequently braided Ill eiegant design. The cutaway vest suggestion is d clever deviation from ''o straight or cutaway lines which are poth so greatly favored. The side irohls or the pocket are made longer 'han the center imparting a quaint anu aftlstlc effect. Large patch nook GUS as well as small ones are tremen- uousiy popular. The large ones are oi'eh decorated with two or three oul.ons 'l' at each side or large one II me eseepter. shirred backs with nar- TOW belts about six or. seven V Inches rG,; .n ienetn are extremely hecoming ses- peclaily to the slender young. girl. : S'seses are set smoothly into the arm Aoie ana are III three-quarters or fiiil

deSCrTDe the various methods of tor ture. Fashion (which is synonymous with style) has invented for her de- voted followers? We omit the long endured hustle, the banging of the hair, and putting it up on rats, until the head resembled a miniature re- production of great mountain range i; the high heeled shoes that ever threat en to throw the wearer on her nose, or the bushel hats of today, whose only mission So far as discovered may be, perhaps, to strengthen the muscles of the neck and chest and so ward off tuberculosis.
 But it would not be fair to credit all the follies of fashion to woman. I think men, or at least some of them, are as great slaves to Fashion as the women. The dude, who has money to buy and not brains enough to know what to buy is a spectacle for the wrath of the gods. I saw gentleman on the streets of Pine Bluff, who, it is said, had escaped from New York supposedly from Matteawan-whose pipe-stem legs of padded pantaloons and his. diminutive body wrapped in coat. also padded to make him look like Paddy Ryan or Jake Kilrain. He was possibly one of the herd of high brows sent out to enlighten Darkest Arkansaw.' I never knew what be- came of him, but wondered if the pad ding of his clothes could have been of bran, which was discovered by the cows who ate him up without finding out there was any foreign taste ill the bran. If such was the case, no one thought him of sufficient value to make inquiry about him. He was less fortunate than the parsonage who, on being presented to some per son of high degree. perhaps king, wore a suit which had been so effec- lively padded with bran, it all leaked out leaving him very much the ap- pearance of a mummy. This was suf- ficient, however, to gain him place in the pages ot history. The only other instance that now recall where man got into history on account oi his clothes was that of Beau Brum- mel, whose danditied dress and man. ners made him the pattern of all the men of his time.
 It is undoubtedly true that some men wear corsets. heard of one of this kind whose wife quit him very soon after they were married and gave; ahst sas 2 treason, think she was right If the Jaws of Arkansas do not make it a ground for divorce for the men to enroach to that ex- tent on the Rights of Women, it is | time for ,our suffragettes to get busy

length. The former length is more often seen on dressy suits and has broad cuffs trimmed with braided | loops and buttons. Tn this case, the sleeves are much wider at the bot < tom than at the top. Revers of all sizes and various shapes are the most dominant feature both on tailored suits and those of dressy type. Some of these reyers extend from notched collars while others are made in one with the collar. All kinds of contrast ing materials combined with braid ana embroidery are used for them. Sep arate revers of macrame or Bohemian lace are very effective over revers that are made of the same material as the suit.
 Skirts are wider. In some the ln- creased width is not so perceptlpS as in others. The tunics, surpllce lines and trimming effects on tns latest fancy models tend to add ne apparent width. The close flttlns' clinging lines and the narrow silnou' cite, however, are retained despl'c the added width.
