are not more tangible.

THE NEW sTEAMrNG MONSTER.

Having in mind the fatal first trip of
the great steamship Titanic, little
more than year ago, the general public
probably felt a slight uneasiness about
that new giant of the seas, the Impera-
tor, which set out from Hamburg, Ger
many, few days ago for the port of
New York and the public undoubtedly
felt a release of tension when the huge
vessel was warped into her dock Thurs
day morning having made its first trip
without untoward incident. That there
was a certain amount of anxiety was in
dicsted by the messages of inquiry made
at the New York Offices of the company
when the vessel had not arrived when
expected. But the slight delay was
due somewhat 20 bad weather eond-
tions and somewhat to the fact that no
efforts were made 10 push the vessel to
its limit on the first cross-sea venture. So
the first trip of the greatest afoat was
conducted with success and another step
has been added to the biggest ever"
craze in the bodybuilding line. Some
thing Of an idea Of the size Of the yes
sci can be gained when one takes into
consideration that the passenger-carry-
ing capacity Of the ImPeratOr Is sufi-
cent to accommodate nearly one-half
the entire population Of the city Of
Barre. while were the complete accom-
modations for the crew 10 be taken into
account it IS probable that quite one
half Of Barre's population could be
slowed away inside the mammoth sen
traveller. II would almost seem that

NOT THE PLACE FOR pIcNIcs.

All things considered, lake, pond or
other large body of water is not the
best place for Sunday school picnic or
an assembly of young people OF any
sort for an outing, Rarely are the chill
dren attended by enough of their elders
to keep them from getting into danger
from drowning; and children are notori-
ously careless and reckless when they
get out on a picnic or excursion, the
spirit of freedom seeming to dominate
them to such an extent that they over
look the risks which, in their quieter
moments, would be guarded against. 1t
is far better to hold largely attended
picnics of the young people at some
place remote from bodies of water Of
sufficient size to encourage boating
some place where all kinds of athletic
sports on land can be conducted with
minimum of danger to the participants.
Outings near large bodies of water should
be reserved for the small gatherings
where the elders in the parties can ex-
ercise strict oversight of the youngsters
and keep them out of harms way. There
is scarcely town in Vermont which
cannot point sorrowfully to incidents
in which picnics near large bodies of
water have resulted in a drowning, or
possibly several drownings. Recent ex
amples in Vermont have only added to
the urgency of the demand that greater
care be made in the selection of picnic
grounds. It is time that the warning
be needed.

Form Of Crime.

The Commercial is not one OF those
who pins much faith in crusades or mar
tyrdom for the sake off single reforma-
ton to the exclusion ofeverY other great
moral or political principle, but how
sensible men and newspapers can hold
on to the defense OF the saloon ia the
face OF the fact that it is losing its best
support every day is more than we can
tell. Henry Watterson, the greatest
champion Of the saloon, who has written
volumes on the subject, would never adj
init that the issue was something more
than sumptuary legislation, and on that
ground he held that Prohibition was un-
democratic and contrary to the princi-
Piles OF American liberty. The fact is
that the saloon license is recognition
OF the worst element OF crime. The sa-
loon is not only the accomplice ofevery
other form Of vice, but it harbors the
criminal. This, of course, will find a
ready retort from the saloon advocates,
but one thing they cannot deny, and
that is that whisky is adulterated until
it becomes one OF the yilest OF beverages.
Much OF the stuff is prepared in the sa-
loon basement, and to say that a very
small percentage is distilled can be borne
out by the facts. The brand of whisky
that comes to the dry territory especially
is foul mixture. and the man who
drinks it has very little regard either for
his stomach or conduct. The mar who
rnakes it should be held guilty OF a
criminal act. Why the Government
will continue to license the sale OF such
stuff is incomprehensible; why the pure
drugs law is not made to compass it is.
beyShd our understanding. To say that
legislation on the subject is merely
sumptuary is a travesty on human in
telligence

TRUTH FROM YOUTHFUL LIPS
Not Exactly the Answer spnster Elk
pected, but It Came From
the Heart.

A middle-aged spinster who lived in
the suburbs had fine orchard. She
likewise had heap of trouble with a
lot of youngsters, who looked on the
orchard as something placed there for
their especial benefit.
Finally the spinster decided that she
could do more with kindness than with
a fence rail, so she prepared feast
of apples and other dainties and in
vited every small boy in the burg to
join the jubilee.
Now, tell me, boys" said the host
ess at the conclusion of the feast,
would the apples you have just eaten
tasted so good had you stolen them?"

Smith, with surprising frankness.

eye fastenings are provided and the
girdle is boned at the ends and sides.
1t is to be worn with the fastening at
the back, front or sides, at the pleas
ure of the wearer.
Figure 2 Is a similar girdle in
narrower and heavier ribbon. 1t is a
gay Roman striped affair to be worn
with cloth or other afternoon gowns
and with street dresses. Its buckle
is smaller and an oval form. The end
is turned under, forming three-inch
loop. Very little ribbon is required
for this. about three-quarters of yard
for the average waist.
One of the prettiest designs is pic
tured in Figure 8. 1t is plain girdle
of black satin ribbon having two ends
finished with plaid ribbon. 1t is boned
at the gathered ends and fastened
with hooks and eyes. The plaid rib
bon is machine stitched to the end
with white silk thread.
The plaid sash in Figure 4 is one Of
the smartest of the new designs. The
buckle at the waist 10 made of silk in
the prevailing color Of the plaid and
a second smaller buckle fastens the
hanging loop and end together.
A more expensive ribbon is used for
the next model than appears in any
OF the others. In Figure a silk and
velvet is shown having a dark green
ground in satin with roses in subdued
colors and foliage in blurred outlines
covering the surface, The girdle is
laid in loose. irregular folds and
stayed with bones. The shorter end
overlapping the girdle ia thirteen
inches long and the longer nineteen
inches. The ends are finished with
