OUR FOREIGN PoLfcw.

Whether the action of many of the powers in recognizing the present Mexican government as set up by Pro visional President Huerta will have any influence upon this government re- mains to be seen. The new adminis- tration has taken an opposite course from the powers concerning both China and Mexico, where the situatio is much the same though there is a much greater interest in the latter be- cause of it's nearness. and it's trou- bles in way are our trouhFes.
 Taking the view that the foreign policy of the administra ton is anaz- ing the New York Mail says: s@The provisional government of Mexico, pro- ViGed by the regularly elected Mexican congress which has already been fully recognized bv Great Britain. has not been recognized lev the United States. although. as our next door neighbor. it hos asked for recognition as a help in the suppression of insurection and brigandage.
 Our annual trade with China amounts only to $53.9249a1
 Our annual trade with lIeico ag- gresates $11S.7s2.442
 Besides. about 10000 American cit izenS live and carry on business in Mexico, and more than S1,00O,000,00O of American money is invested there
 If the Chinese government is over thrown. the United States will not be seriously or directly involved in the catastrophe.
 If the Mexican government falls as a result of the indifference or hostil- ity of the United States. the. conse- quences will be general chaos and such destruction of life and prop erty as may compel American armed intervention and a costly war"

ALAsKA's PANHANDLE.

Though it may have been offered in earnest there will be little serious consideration given to the resolution 0f Congressman Stephens of Texas who. because Of the lack of an un- derstandinS as to the boundary line of the narrow strip of Alaskan terri tory known as the panhandle wants 70 abandon all claims therein and turn The several hundred miles of land over to Great Britain for facilitating the Pacific coast section of Canada. This is of course a generous offer and one which would he pleasing both to Great Britain and to Canada but the sug- rested action lacks for reason and doubtless the resolution causes as much surprise 10 them as it does in this country
 f there Is a controversy over the boundary line of that strip of Alaskan territory it is perfectly proper. if # Is material that il should be definitely established that efforts should be started for the fixing of the line and marking it. but t0 give f. away when more attention than ever is being d. rected to Alaska and it's development is certainly uncallef for r will prove as useful to this country as to Great nrlfalD and certainly the justification for the purchase of Alaska is suff7- cient for holding onto tN~ panhandle in which mum her of important places are located and from which much can he expected in the future.

THE REVIVAL OF POCKETS.

It can scarcely be believed, and yet is stated on. excellent authority, that pockets are to be revived. We have been fer so many years accustomed to carry our handkerchiefs, powder puffs and mirrors in a bag that we cannot realize that we are on the eve of dis pensing with this extravagant access s0ry.
 Pockets will not at the outset of spring fashions be visible. as they were in the eighteenth century, on the long coats worn by men. They will appear modestly beneath the slit in the skirt and will have but a piping to show where the hand can be inserted Later we may find them upon the Jackets, and it is even whispered that a tailor has made his new designs with as many pockets as a man carries.
 Can you picture four pockets on a white canvas coat, two inside, two out? And two small pockets upon the fancy silk waistcoat that will be seen with most of the white costumes in Nice.

RAINY DAY IN THE AUTO.

When starting off for a days trip strenuous objections are always made by the average woman to taking the heavy rubber blankets, even though she may realize that the rains may descend and the floods come and beat upon that auto. She dislikes those blankets not only because they are heavy but because they are ugly and malodorous-two things offensive to her feminine soul. Now. however, she may rejoice For a blanket comes, which is made of a rainproof rubber ized material that is pretty. light in weight and hasn't bit of a ''rubbery'' smell It is a good looking thing, for it is of a pretty shade of tan and is trimmed with bands and conventional corner designs of stitched velvet of darker shade than the blanket itself It has a separate backing of cloth which adds to the warmth of the robe, but not to it's weight Altogether 1t is A most welcome substitute for the clumsy and heavy rubber blanket.

THE WAY TO CLEAN MATING.

A broom is not good for mating, and neither is the frequent use of wet cloth The carpet sweeper, used across the grain, is better but the vacuum cleaner Is best of all. The hearth brush is a life preserver to mating and labor saver to the housekeeper. It raises little dust. keeps the mating and the corners in proper condition, and does not roughen or injure the 1uattfng's surface This brush may be washed without injury if quickly dried.

BEAD EMBRolDERIES.

While the passion for bead embroid- cries continues there is some tameness in the exquisite silk embroideries, which are so much lighter and more attractive, but a chance for these is about to reappear. ard the favorite colors are to be pale tones of blue, pink mauve. saffron. with always an a0mixture of black. which gives effect to the rest For instance, a cream colored satin tunic is embroidered in spring tints of palest crocus mauve, soft laburnum yellow and the vivid green of the tulip leaf Between each motif is a leaf shape embroidered in black and white. The effect of this with the brighter tones is excellent.

Instead of sending ones gloves to the cleaner to be worn out in a few weeks. one can clean them at home if she will buy one of the long wooden hand and arm pieces that are to be found in the shops for 40 cents, then the glove can be scrubbed with a wet sponge, that is saturated with ether, and wrung out only enough to prevent it dripping.
