REACHED LIMIT OF TORTURE
Real Reason Why Burglar Gave Even.

tive Headline.

A burglar broke into a New York
mansion early the other morning and
found himself after wandering about
the place in the music room Hearing
footsteps approaching, he took refuge
behind a screen. From eight to nine
the eldest daughter had a singing les
son. From nine to ten the second
daughter took piano lesson. From
10 to II the eldest son got his instruc-
ton on the violin. From IL to ~ the
younger boy got lesson on the flute
and piccolo. Then, at 1915, the fam
lily got together and practiced music
on all their instruments. They were
fixing up for a concert. At 12:45 the
porchclimber staggered from behind
the screen. For heavens sake, send
for the police!" he shrieked. Tor

WIN He COULDN'T slt Down.

Harry, aged six, is an orphan; but
an indulgent grandmother and kind
maiden aunt have taken care of him.
The first pair of knickerbockers we're
secured recently, and it was a proud
moment for the boy when his aunt
put them on him on Sunday morning
and he was permitted to go to church
with his grandmother. Naturally
maiden aunts know very little about
the arrangement of knickerbockers,
and there was suspicious fullness in
front and an equally mystifying tight
ness in the back to be observed, as
the little chap trudged happily along.
In church Harry sat down, but did
not appear comfortable and stood up.
Harry, sit down." whispered his
grandmother. He obediently climbed
back on the seat, but soon slipped off
again. Harry, you must sit down"
Grandma, can't. My pants is chok-
ing me-" She looked more closely
than her dim sight had before permit
ted, and discovered the new little
knickerbockers were on hind side be-
fore. Harry stood up during the re-
mainder of the service.

MAKEUP OF THE COUTURE
Original Effects Sought After by the
Smartest Women Who Set the
Fashions of Paris.

This year there is little absolute
rangement to chronicle, yet the
changes, though subtle, are none the
less potent-a frequent experience as
is demonstrated when one puts on
an old hat, carefully cherished, even
when no distinct change in fashion
has taken place.
The most important aspect Of the
couture nowadays is the silhouette 1t
produces, fact in union with the
whole spirit of dress. And this is
the first point to be carefully no
ticed and attained. A low, full out
line is the one most generally sought
after, and attained quite easily by the
aid Of many clever frames and adj
justments provided. A decidedly
Eastern effect is one Of the most no
ticeable features in the new dress
ings which should not be overlooked
by the woman who would be in the
van of fashion. In the evening this
has its opportunity, and Paris al
ready speaks authoritatively of "Le
Grand Mogul."
Then in the arrangement of the
long hair a decided vogue may be
prophesied for wide, soft plaits and
twists, frequently made of well-waved
hair, which breaks the formality and
throws other lines into those en-
ployed by the treatment of plating
or twisting. A chic arrangement
takes the form virtually of a CHG
non-for want Of a better word--
covered with very wide, soft plat
of waved hair, the effect being Of
broken lines intertwined, which give
different shades and pretty lights
while IL is not till close examination
that the plat itself IL distinguished

WAR IN THE TIPPING NUISANCE.
kANS,

If the commercial travellers of this
country really do go after the tip
ping system with all the power they
possess, they can nearly. If not en-
tirely, destroy it. Their national pres
ident avows his determination to rally
the organization to an assault upon
this graft. which, he says. foots up
t50,000000 a year In the United
States. If those figures even APP
proximate the facts. tipping is more
than a nuisance to individuals. 1t is
an enormous tax upon business that
should not be tolerated 1t has made
parasites not only of horde of SER
wants, but of certain lines of bust
ness, which thus, through underpaid
employees. prey upon other businesses.
Tipping might find some plausibility
II 1t amounted only to gratuities to a
faithful servant seeking to please, but
everybody knows that it goes far be-
yond this. says the Omaha Bee. The
tip is more often given, not for extra
service. but to get any kind of serv-
ice at all 1t is not surprising that
commercial travellers think of organ
izing a united attack upon tipping.
The surprise is that they have not
done so long years ago, They prac-
tically live on the road, in hotels and
trains a good part of the year. That
sort of life is hard at best To make
the most of 1t they pay tips that they
may obtain a living existence. so to
speak. The commercial travellers can
destroy the tip If they will. They can
get no-tip hotels when they unitedly
demand them and they can get, at
least, some Improvement in condi-
lions even from the sleeping car COM
pany. If they succeed they will have
the thanks of everyone who ever
travels away from home.

Theoretically. says a jeweler. the
best watches of today are perfect,
but actually they both gain and lose
time every day. Even If the good
watch does not vary one second at
the end Of the "a hours, the expert
insists, 1t has both gained and lost in
that time If it is wound in the morn
ing, 1t runs fast, and toward the next
morning runs slow. thus equalizing
the time He says the best watches
should be wound twice day and then

4 HOld~Ur,
An Oppressive Trust.

Before the Coffee Roasters' Association, in ses-
sion at Chicago on Thursday, Thomas ]. Webb,
Of Chicago, charged that there is in existence
coffee combine which is "the most monstrous i'm
position in the history of human commerce."
There is very slight exaggeration about this
statement 1t comes very close to being literally
true. There is coffee combine in Brazil, from
which country comes the bulk of the coffee used
in the United States, which is backed by the gov
eminent of Brazil and financed by it, which COM.
pes American consumers, as Mr.. Webb said, Ito
pay famine prices for coffee when no famine
exists
The worst thing about this is that the CONSUME
ers of the United States have been compelled to
put up the money through which this combine,
to further cinch them, has been made effective.
There were formerly revenue duties imposed upon
all coffee entering the United States. Those taxes
were denounced as an imposition upon the people;
as taxing the poor mans breakfast table, and the
like The taxes were removed. Immediately
thereafter Brazil imposed an export duty upon
coffee up to the full amount of the former customs
taxes in this country. The revenue which for
merly went into the treasury of the United States
was diverted to the treasury of Brazil The poor
mans breakfast coffee continued to cost him the
same old price.
But this was only the commencement The
''valorization'' plan was evolved in Brazil.
Through this plan the government, using the rev.
enues derived from the export duties for the pur-
poses, takes all of the surplus crop in season Of
large yields and holds it off the market, thus
keeping the supply down to the demands of the
market and permitting the planters to receive
much higher price than they would otherwise
have done.
The United States consumes more Brazilian cof-
fee than does the rest Of the world. We are the
best customers of Brazil, and Brazil buys little
from us. Now Brazil is promoting, financing and
maintaining trust designed, and working effect
lively for the purpose, to compel American con:
sumers to pay an exorbitant price for the coffee
they use What is the remedy?-Seahe Post-IH-
