size or the eyes do not fit. After be-
ing burned, the heads are painted,
waXed or glazed, depending on the
material from which the heads are
made. The arms, legs and hands are
produced in a similar but simpler
manner, as the painting consists only
in giving the necessary flesh color,
while the heads must have rosy
cheeks, red lips and dark or light eye
brows, depending on the color of the
eyes. The setting of the eyes and
the making ana attaching of the wigs
involve number of other processes.
The doll industry is now commenc-
ing to make the Character doll' in
restricted numbers. The model is
made by an artist and the molds are
then copied from this model. The
painting of these dolls is done with
especial care, and consequently their
price is considerably higher than that
of the commoner type of doll.
The assembling of the different
parts of the dolls is often very COM
plicated. The best jointed dolls have
stout elastic cord on the inside, TO
which the movable parts are~attached.

PASTOR SMITH
ON SIN SLAVERY

Slavery of man to sin is far worse
than the bondage which existed prior
to the Civil War, according to the Rev
r. e. Smith, who addressed the Chris
tan Extension meeting yesterday
evening on Has the Gospel Run Out?"
Sin comes to us in a subtle man.
ner,' said Mr.. Smith. 1T gets a grip
on the affection and at first we nurse
it. But it winds it's tendrils around
and underneath the mind, finally it
undermines the soul and when it has
completed its work it leaves us in
intellectual ruin.
"The only thing that will help us
to conquer sin is the gospel of Jesus
Christ"
Mr.. Smiths sermon was clean
cut refutation of the theory that the
gospel is run out and has become a
back number and, as an outline of his
brief, he took the three propositions:
% AS long as sin remains with man.
kind, the gospel of Jesus Christ will
not become a back number; (2) AS
long as human folk need comfort, help
and inspiration, the gospel of Jesus
will not run out, and 60, as long as
people die, the gospel of Jesus Christ
will live.
The sermon for this evening will be
on the subject, zone Thing Lacking. -
At the song service, Mr.. Butler will
sing open the Gates of the Temple, -
and Gypsy Smiths famous solo, "He

Besides the meeting of the English

LOWER CAR STEP
MOVE is URGENT
Miss Janet Richards Talks
to Current Topics Club.

Hundreds OF petitions to the presidents
OF street railway companies, requesting
that they adopt a lower step on street
cars than now used. are being circulated
by members of the Current Topics Club.
1t Is expected that more than 5000 sig
natures win be procured With fort
night.
At meeting of the club at Rauscners
yesterday Miss Janet Richards distrib-
uted nifty copies Of the petition. each
containing enough space for fifty sigma
lures One hundred and fifty copies, con-
taIning space for 100 names each, will be
distributed to-day. The petition reads:
I'VE. the undersigned women of the
city OF Washington. hereby protest
against the high steps Of the local street
cars.
Combined with the pay-as-you-enter
cars. this step is uncomfortable and in
convenient for every one. but II is a
special menace TO the safety OF the aged
and TO women. especially those who get
on and OF the cars with little children.
THE dangers and dlscomforts to the
community at large are so great that We
ask for immediate relief through the
addition Of a graded lower step or a new
style OF car"
Probably 500 petitions Will be given out
to-day, as Miss Richards hopes to dis
tribute the copies as rapidly as they are
typewriter. When every man and
woman In Washington who objects to
high street car steps have affixed their
names to the petitions. the copies win be
forwarded TO the street railway company
heads.
Miss Richards addressed nearly 100
women at the meeting at Rauscher's.
She received much applause. and awak-
ened enthusiasm. All members agreed
with Miss Richards that the anatomy
OF the human being Is OF far greater
importance than the anatomy Of the
Washington street cars"

ALASKKS WEALTH
PRODUCING ABILITY

The records have b:en made up
of the salmon canning business of
Alaska for. the year 1910. 1t ap-
pears that during The year all
records in this industry, not only
for Alaska but for the whole
Pacific coast, were broken. The
pack. of Alaska salnon aggregated
1881 cases, of the value, in the
hands of the packers, of $14, $780,

The salmon canning industry of
Alaska alone returns more money
by many mil'icns thi. year than
the output of gold from that ter
ritory. Alaska takes third place
as gold producer in this country,
but it occupies easily tho first
place in the value of output Of
canned fish.
When Alaska was purchased by
the United States from Russia the
price paid vas $7,200;00O. The
pack Of salmon in Alaska last
year is valued at considerably
more than twice the sum which
the federal Rovernme mt paid for
the territory. The people who

Il you deposit one dollar every year

WILSON AND HARPER's WEEKLY


amiable editor of Harper's Weekly,
was formerly newspaper man
and a distinguished one. having
been editor of the New York World
in its palmist, most progressive and
yellowest days. The colonel's
newspaper instinct led him to the
discovery long ago shat Woodrow
Wilson was of presidential size.
He has been very proud Of his
prescience since q few hundred
thousand Of his fellow citizens
have come over to the same way
of thinking, and for some time
he has flown at the mast head of
Harper's the legend: "For Presi-
dent, Woodrow Wilson Of New
jersey" :
Two or three weeks ago the
banner disappeared, and now the
colonel says he took it down be-
cause Governor w lson asked him
to do so.
Wherein we think Governor
Wilson displayed good judgement,
even though it seems a little rough
upon his "discoverer," the colonel.
For it so happens that Pierpont
Morgan, or his bank, or some one
connected Herewith undertook the
reorganization of the Harper
printing house once upon a time,
since that time Harper's has been
twitted with being a Wall street
organ. There is no evidence so
far as we know that "Wall street"
or Morgan now has the least
interest or influence in Harper's.
But the imputation of such an
alliance remained, and the associa-
ton was distasteful to Governor
Wilson, for he is distinctly not a
Wall street candidate.
Not only is the old corporation
bossed political machine of ris
own state actively hostile to him,
but Tammany, always doing Wall
street bidding, is fighting him
savagely. In this connection the
New York Globe says:
The practical question now
pertinent is whether or not the
Wall street attitude has made
the nomination Of Governor Wilson
inevitable. 1t S perhaps too early
for so sweeping an affirmative to
be given. But this much can he
said with entire safety; that one
or two more Wall street attacks of
the character thus far made will
make the Wilson nomination
almost a certainty.
No statement has yet been made
of the reasons why Governor Will
son has become obnoxious and
has been on the must be Destroy
ed" list. A year ago it was
generally conceded that he was a
man of intelligence and character.
He has disclosed since some
views of the class called radical,
but if he is to be objected to on
this account, who is the "conservs
tive?" The truth is, there is no
conservative candidate in sight
and if there was there would be
no chance of nominating him. 1t
is condition and not theory
that Wall street confronts.
Wall street may nominate Will
son as the Globe says, hut it will
be by fighting him, not supporting
him. Colonel Harvey should not
have let his finger be pinched in
the door. Record Union.
