Heart toHeart
Talks
BY JAMES A. EDCERrON

ONE WAY TO BE GOOD AMERICANS.
Why are fashions imported from
Paris?
Paris styles have been monstrosities.
They have been not only uncomfort-
able and absurd. but have verged on
the indecent
Moreover they have been ugly.
At last the worm has turned. as
worms with even enough sense to
sQuirm will do sooner or later.
There is now a widespread movement
to design our own styles.
This is being promoted not only by
an influential section OF the press. but
by big dressmaking and tailoring estab-
iishments and manufacturing houses.
New York designers have organized
a society OF American fashions for
American women
The hobble skirt and other Paris
freaks have done their work. They
have taught US to depend upon our
selves. =

ing French models.
Our people have shown inventive
ness, ingenuity and good taste in other
lines, and there is no reason why they
cannot do so in the matter Of feminine
apparel.
American men have their own fash
ions, and they are as we'll dressed al
any men in the world.
The Paris fetch has dominated tht
feminine mind till now. but the END
has come.
American women are adopting new
Declaration of independence
They have resolved to be free from
| the tyranny OF foreign freak fashions.
They are through with sartorial carl

Hereafter we are to have American

ness and beauty.
This Is not only movement Of pa
triotism. but of economy and GOO
taste.

INDIANA's SAND DUNES.

To the Editor:-In speaking OF places
made interesting by natures own
work, the sand dune district the shores
of Lake Michigan near the Indiana
penitentiary is worth mentioning. The
people of Chicago. who have seen more
of this district than the Hoosier folk,
are trying to create sentiment favor
able to securing IT for city park and
children's playground.
The writer has scaled the sand dunes
of Lake Michigan, has braved the cool
air on entering Mammoth cave, has set
foot on the highest pinnacle of Pixies
Peak, has waded in the sands of the
sea at Virginia beach and at Atlantic
City, and is ready to testify that the
sand dunes combine the sport OF noun
tain climbing with the majesty felt at
the beach. For the hight of the dunes
reminds one of the mountains and the
great lake and the cleanliness of the
sand reminds of the seashore,
while the cooling breeze from the lake
equals the refreshing drought roaring
from the entrance at Mammoth cave.
A district in sight of the grim walls
of the prison worth setting apart as a
park and childrens playground would
serve as a place of recreation we'll
as place of warning to the rising gen.

SPEAKING OF SLEEP.

Mr. Wilson says he needs nine
hours sleep every night or he doesn' t
feel fit and that he will have the same
allowance even when in the White
House.
Built somewhat along the lines of
lean Cassius, he will pattern after
the fat man who sleeps we'll O. nights.
1t is not "perchance to dream aye,
there's the rub" sort of slumber, for
Mr.. Wilson further specifies uninter-
rupted sleep.
Blessings on the man who invented
sleep that knits up the travelled
sleeve of care and all that sort oil
thing. It's great medicine.
One poet says:
My banks are furnished with bees,
Whose murmur invites me TO sleep.
But let that pass. The murmurs
from the banks just now are not ex.
actly conducive to sleep.
Indeed, there is a feeling that how
ever sound Mr.. Wilson's repose ma,
be his acts in waking hours are liable
to disturb the rest of some others.

smaller products; and it is of the
consumer for these small products
that the farmers mail complain.
The farmer can now send direct from
the farm to the consumer eggs, but
ter. poultry, flowers, certain veget
ables; and if he will furnish absolute
quality in certain definite amounts.
he will not get what the consumer
has been accustomed to pay, but he
will get more than he has been re-
ceiving.
This will of necessity lead to some
reforms in farm management If the
farmer wants to get the top price for
eggs. he must send fresh eggs. He
must know that they are fresh; and
If he fails in this respect, he will hear
something drop.

the egg gathering to wait for two or
three days, and finally put IN some

MUCH TRUTH IN IT.

Mr.. Beaver in his letter to THE
TIMES in which he accuses Ham,
mond of an undue "holier than thou"
attitude, is not SO far off in his in
ference. Hammond has been known
to assume this attitude and the at
titude is not altogether warranted.
inasmuch as, were there no West

element. This rowdy element in
