New York, March 13.-Never has

versity in coats than this season
Jackets, bolero, Elton, Russian, Balkan,
jackets with French back and cut
away front, sacque and Tuxedo jack
cts, are all in equally good style. From
such galaxy of lines and cuts 1t would
be strange indeed If every type OF
feminine figure could not find one or
more suitable for its individual needs.
To rival the Russian blouse the short
coat has appeared. This is fashioned
either on Elton blouse lines or on lines
which, to the initiated, resemble much
more a sacque for boudoir wear than
coat for the street. The Elton stops in
front of the waistline or an inch Oh
two below, and slopes gradually to
deep point in the center of the back
The sacque-jacket descends to the hips
or an inch or more below. These
jackets combine artistically with the

WHEN THEY HARVEST COFFEE
GuatemaIan Pickers Are Paid Little,
but Make Attractive Scene on
the Plantations.

The harvest season on large cof-
fee fnca in Guatemala is the busiest
time Of the year. At the first hint of
dawn a great bell calls the Indians to
work, and men, women and children,
laden with wide, fat baskets, start
for the fields, where all day long they
pick the bright red berries The re-
suit Of a good days work for each
picker is about three bushels of ber-
ries. At sunset the great baskets,
piled high with the crimson fruit, are
brought to the weighing house, where
the contents are weighed. each picker
receiving a check for the amount due
him. The Southern Workman says
the wages are or 8 cents day, paid
IN full every Saturday night. There
Is no more beautiful or attractive
scene IN the world than a vast coffee
field In this country when the harvest
ing Is in full swing, for the costume
of the Guatemala Indian is the most
effective and picturesque in all Cen
trail America. The Woman's dress
usually consists of three pieces; a

red and yellow predominating) wound
several times around the lower limbs:
the juipil, or shirt, richly embroidered
with curious designs--birds, animals,
arrow patterns or geonletrical figures
IN many colors; and a gaudy belt or
sash holding the two garments to-
gether. The hair is worn in two
heavy braids, often intertwined with
gay ribbons. In the north the women
wear curieusly woven head bands sew

and around the head and tied in
double knot over the forehead. They
are made of silk, richly colored, ending
In heavy tassels Of silver, and are

The Waste of Money in Road
BuiIdinq.

Anybody around here been en-
PERTAINING the delusion that Jared Y.
Sanders, former governor of Louisi-
ana, was really dead, politically
speaking, after his burial by last
January's landslide of ballots? II
SO, it is time now to revise that es-
very much alive, and what's more,
he's still preaching the good roads
doctrine, which was one of his hob
bies when he was in the executive
chair. For, while it may be true the
hobby was not ridden with any great
amount Of success, yet it must be adj
mitted that Jared rode it very persist
entity, and that his heart was to a
considerable extent in all he did and
said on this subject.
At a recent meeting in Lafayette
the former governor delivered an adj
dress on the subject Of good roads,
and during the course Of his re-
marks he told the people some things
that ought to have interested them
especially those who happened to
be payers of taxes. According to
former Governor Sanders the parish of
St Mary, from which he halls, has
spent, during the past fifteen years,
more than 100000 on alleged good
roads, yet today has not single
mile of really permanent improved
highway throughout the length of
the parish. This money has been
absolutely wasted, OF course-and
there's nothing now to shoaf for it.
The governor charged the Lafayette
people with the same sort Of foolish
practices in the matter of road build
ing, and they did not attempt to dis
prove the assertions, which may be
taken to signify the charges were
correct.
What is true of st. Mary parish,
however, is true of practically every
other parish in the state Of Louisi-
ana. It was true of Caddo up to a
couple of years ago, when the police
jury aWoke to the realization that
they We're throwing away thousands
of dollars annually on the roads, and
decided then and there to stop it.
Since that time Caddo parish has
been setting an example for the bal
ance of the state by building per-
manently hard surfaced roads in all
manent1y hard surfaced roads in
all directions, having now in
sight an expenditure of about
three-quarterS Of million dollars
during the next four years. One year
of the good road building has already
passed and splendid results have
been obtained. Incidentally, too, it
might be added that the city of
Shreveport is preparing to improve
all streets leading to the corporation
line SO as to join with these good
roads built by the arish.-Shreve-
port Journal.
