It is not extravaganza to wear tall
or made clothes, it's economy, because
your clothes are made to your individ-
ual measure, because the styles are
correct, because the garments are hand
tailored .thruout. because you have
wider and better selection to choose
from, because the price is little or no
higher than the price asked for ready
made clothes. A visit to our tailoring
parlors will demonstrate this to your

TIME RIPE FOR NEW
FEMININE NAMES
Fashions in Cognomens for
Girls Last Too

Fashions in feminine names last too

given us surfeit of Betty and Peggy.

the claims of the excellent, durable,
dignified but neglected Maria. Too
long has she kept sanctuary in the
page of early Victorian memoirs and
diaries. The time is ripe for her re-
appearance, along with her buxom
sisters Martha. Matilda and the rest
of that Edgeworthian family. When
woman suffrage has become fashion,
able, 1t is time that daughters should
be named Maria.
There is variety enough among the
sisterhood or school of Maria to suit
all tastes. Julia and Della have Sc
date and studious sound; Susan is
busting domestic; Martha and Sarah
are suitable for presidents of woman's
auxiliaries and benevolent societies.
Sophia suits belle, and Augusta a
chairman of committees. Caroline
plays a swift game of tennis and is a
daring horsewoman.

middle name should return to favor.
A bevy of unattached, but deserving
names would thus come at once into
more frequent use, enriching our
nomenclature. A few of these, it is
true, belonging to no particular
school, have managed for some time
to hold their own against the mon
opoly of Betty and Peggy. Such is
the classic Helen, and such the Saxon
Edith. The character of many of
these independent names which have
never herded into schools has become
strong and full of personality, fit, in
deed, to write in baptism with any of
the noble gems of Maria.
Occasionally these free-lance names
hunt in couples" Anna and Annie

genial. Anna has touch me-not air.

Still plentiful in spite of many
thousand guns aimed at its life, the
grouse ranges over the whole of
northern North America, making
short migrations in search of food or
winter quarters Sometimes when
wintering in tall timber it eats great
quantities of laurel buds. which, gun
ners say. makes the flesh highly pois-
onous for food. The survival of this
game bird in such great numbers is
due in a large measure to the whirr
of it's fight, which serves a double
purpose. startling the gunner and
warning all other birds in the neigh

from some men in public life, how
ever, in this respect that while he
does not take himself very seriously so
that he assumes airs of pompous dig
nifty, he takes the business of poll
tics and will take whatever business
comes to his hands in the House of
Representatives with the utmost
seriousness.
Now, if Dingley had a little sense
of humor he would become what he
never can become, the leader of his
party upon the floor of the House.
He loves figures, he has a wonderful
appreciation of the profound economic
philosophy which is at the bottom of
the American protective system. I
am going to give you a little piece
of advice about him and that is this
of all the new members of the House
of Representatives Governor Dingley
is the one upon whom you should keep
you eye fixed. He will go on plodding
from year to year until by and by he
stands revealed before the House as
profound master of the tariff ques-
tion both IN its general principles
and in its details, and I venture the
further prediction that if he lives the
time is not far distant when he will
be named chairman of the ways and
means committee and will frame a
tariff measure which will be identified
by his name"
Sixteen years later Mr.. Reed him
self appointed Nelson Dingley chair
man of the ways and means commit
tee and as chairman he framed what
will pass into history as the Dingley
law.

He had two novels. and l observed
that they were volumes of Alexandra
Dumas Three Musketeers." Mr..
Reed told me that he was very fond
of Dumas, although he regarded
Thackeray as a greater master of tic-
ton.
Both of these men," he said, "had
the supreme quality whereby they
discover the latent possibilities of
humor that are in almost every con-
dition and relation of life
Having thus begun, Mr.. Reed went
onto describe the very important part
which the sense of humor plays in
creating success for men of literature
and, as he thought, for the greater
orators.
Are you acquainted with Governor
Dingley?" Mr.. Reed suddenly asked.
l thought it was a sudden change of
subject, for l could not understand
what my acquaintance with Governor
Dingley had to do with the charming
little dissertation on humor which Mr..
Reed had been giving me.
l replied, however, that it had been
my good fortune TO spend an after
noon with Governor Dingley in the
editorial office of his newspaper, The
Lewiston (Maine) Journal, a day or
two before the Maine State election
of 1879, when the so-called Greenback
craze was playing great havoc with
both national parties in Maine.

Dingley smiled at any time during
your chat with him." Mr.. Reed
asked.

memorials have been placed over the

monster, beside which the one created
by Frankenstein is as gentle and
peaceful as lamb chops. Few persons
not in daily attendance upon the
newspaper can have any idea of its
wonderful complacence, it's calmness
and continued good humor when it
might well be most provoked and irri-
tated. How many, many persons have
axes to grind! How many little
people, people of small consequence.

the most deplorable feature in a

That must have been a happier
time when the true nobility, who
could lay it on heavy enough when

more laborious to write their names
and even the king could scarcely
