Notes of the Anvil Chorus
BY GEORGE p. STONE.

vate individuals who care not whit
to whom they sell, than to see the
"snds' joints owned and operated by
the municipality where they could be
strictly controlled. Well, anyway, Bill,
he's got gray matter under his hat,
and there is always hope for those
fellows.
The Blacksmith" seems to overlook
the fact that if the municipalities had
owned the saloons last year, that two
and quarter billions of dollars that
was spent for booze, would have al
most done away with taxes In the
cities in which the saloons are To-
Gated. I'll venture this much, Bill
that If the people of Hamilton adopt
my platform. that in five years the
city will have a population of 1900
nc Indebtedness. and the best side
walks and streets in the state, ane
no tax levy. Well, SO long, old scout

Smoke consumina Schooner.

The most ingenious scheme ever in
vented for doing away with the smoke
difficulty with steam locomotives was
tried some years ago on the Metrop0i-
itan railway of England. Between
the rails trough was laid. and the en-
gine carried sliding shoe device
adapted to slide over this and to open
doors as it passed whereby smoke let
from the stack to the shoe was enabled
to pass into the trough. thence being
exhausted to collecting plant" An.
other scheme for solving the smoke diff
fculty was to construct series OF
smokestacks leading to the back of the
train. This would have kept the Gin
ders out of the passengers eyes possi-
bly,. but would hardly have been suHi-
cient to make the smoke settle on the
company's right of way.-lndianapolis

The Mockina Bird.

Because Of its incompatible medleys
and initiative powers the mocking bird
is the most renowned singer or the
western hemisphere. Its place In the
affections Of the south Is similar to
that occupied by the robin In the north.
II is we'll that this is true. for the bird
appears not to deserve protection strict
ly from an economic standpoint. About
half of its diet consists of fruit and
many cultivated varieties. snch as Or

Title to Berkley
Spring Now in City

Title to the Berkley hot sulphur
spring is now in the hands of the
city. The springs commission today
paid the sum of $3.50 to Mr.. Berkley
and secured the title. The council
advanced the funds for the purpose.
This is the first actual title step in
the mineral springs development and
might be referred to as the title. It
is hoped that a favorable sale of the
bonds will be consummated next
week and that work on the project
will be begun about the first of the
year.
The contracts on the other min
eral springs do not mature until in
April of 1915.

FREEDOM IN FRANCE.

No Country In the World Where In.
dividuai Liberty Is Greater.
l believe that there is no country In
the world where there is greater indi-
vidual freedom than in France. Every
one apparently does just about as he
pleases. The gendarmes are not watch
ing for infractOns and never seem to
interfere with anybody. People tum-
BILE their dogs into the public foun-
tains and enjoy the parks with free
dom that would not for a moment be
permitted in New York. Yet no one
does anything really harmful. | men
toned these things to the American
consul, who said:
"Yes, the French have great individ-
ual license and are too proud of it to
abuse it. Whatever they lack in po-
litical freedom they make up in per-
sonal liberty. That is the chief article
of their faith. The gendarme seldom
lays hands on citizen. Where some
thing really serious happens there are
usually serious consequences, but it
does not often happen"
Then he told me of runaway youth
whom he wished apprehended and held
for American advices. The authorities
said: I'VE will watch him for you. we
will keep you posted as to his com.
ings. his goings and his doings. but we
cannot lay hands on him. There is no
warrant for so serious step."-Albert

There was a loose. shapeless tunic of
peacock blue crepe-the new peacock blue,
that is softer and not so trying as the
old shade This was looped up in front
with an enameled chain and fastened to
a diamond-shaped ornament on the wide
black velvet girdle that held in the full
ness of the pannier of white chiffon-very
full and bouffant.
This manner of keeping the fullness Of
the pannier from bulging out directly
from the waist line is good. And there
is tendency in the newest spfing models
TO Iengthen the waist slightly in some
such way. A wide girdle is pulled well
below the waist over the pannier, or a
I long sash is tied in a loose, bustle-like
bow to Iengthen the waist in back.

but the hustle. no! If it comes at all
it will Come in spite Of Poiret.
At one of the most recent openings in
Paris, at which spring and summer suits
were shown, the tendency showed that
the new jackets will measure about
| twenty-five inches in length. This is true
of the separate coats as well as those
that are part of a street suit.
Some of these jackets had no sleeves
and there we're very few full-length
| sleeves, in spite of the predictions that
long sleeves would come with warm
1 weather.
An entirely new note struck at this
exhibition was the linen collars seen or
the jackets. These were large, turndowr
collars OF linen quite unlike anything
seen lately.
There is a wide range OF color in the
new suits. Green and brown are much
i'm evidence. but then navy blue, in serge
or taffeta, is also in high favor. And the
soft shade of gray, known as pussy vii.
low, will probably meet with much liking

The jacket is bound with buff moire silk
around the front and lower edges, and
the original model was finished with

The skirt was most interesting. There
was a sort OF double tunic or pannier

but in the back sloped down to the knees.
Under this was a rather straight skirt.

that are to be used.
When the amount of material used in
the skirts began to increase there were
good maryland among them people
whose prediction is usually reliable-whc
thought that the skirts would be wider
at the foot this spring.
Apparently this is not to be. Both ir

are extremely narrow at the base, though
an inclination to make skirts shorter
may make them more comfortable fol
walking.

The dress of children is almost as

And children's fashions closely follow
those of the grown-ups.
