MRS. BLOOM
IS REJECTED

Washington, D. c., Oct. 13.-The
senate today rejected the name of
Marjorie Bloom for postmistress at
Devils Lake, N. D.
The above telegram reached this
city Tuesday evening, and speaks for
ieself. J. H. Bloom was a candidate
for the position of postmaster in this
city and his name was recently reject
ed by the senate. Later the name Of
his wife was sent to the senate by
President Wilson, and the senate has
! rejected the same. The field is now
an open one with several candidates
and it would be hard to tell at this
time just who will succeed Postmaster
Richard Daeley, who is holl-over
until the Democrats can agree on his
successor.

SUPPLIES THAT
AMERICA MUST
Do WITHOUT

In the November Woman's Home
Companion Grace Margaret Gould, the
well-known fashion editor Of that pub
lication, writes most interesting ar
ticle entitled "What War Means to
Fashions What America will have
to do without while the war lasts is set
down in the following extract from
Miss Gould's article:
"There are certain supplies that
America will simply have to do with
out. Our stock Of fine silks, chiffons,
and velvets is already limited. The
lace industry is decidedly hard hit, for
most Of our laces are imported from
Switzerland, England, France, and
Germany. This means that our own
lace industry will be taxed to the ut
most.
''There is sure to be shortage also
in embroideries, for though there are
many beautiful domestic embroideries,
nevertheless the: fact that there is
such scarcity Of net and other fabrics
used for their foundations will cripple
the American manufacturer.
"Among the most effective trim
mings are the imported ones, and it is
the same story in buttons. The most
artistic come from abroad.
"There is also great scarcity of
furs, and those that are on sale are
twice the price they were last year
Our imports Of dressed furs from Ger
many have always been very large.
"The manufacturers Of colored cot.
ton. goods are finding nothing but
stumbling blocks in their way. The
European war has cut off materially
the importation Of dyestuffs, and il
this was the manufacture of cham
brays, denims, and other cotton ia
brics will be much curtailed.
"The makers Of cheap jewelry als'
! find their business greatly affected, al
many Of the stones ,.laich are used il
jewelry made up for the holiday trad
comes from Austria and adiacen
countries.
"Of course the famous silk mills o
france have stopped working, ard tn
silken French stuffs cannot reach tn
American trade, so for a time we Wi
have to depend entirely on America:

THE FIRST KISS.

u.
ssThe greatest surprise in the world
to girl who is kissed for the first
time is that there is no taste to il" -
Exchange.
No taste to It'll Well, by the hem
feathers on Cupid's dart, but the
editor of that paper must be color
blind and deaf and dumb in his palate.
They tell us, those who have tried it,
that it tastes like the double-distilled
essence Of honey spread thick on a
large fat slice Of pumpkin pie; that it's
taste resembles sip of nectar, brew
ed by the gods and served in q dew
covered honeysuckle blossom.
Way back in the dim and hazy past,
long before We had misplaced all our
teeth and when we had cinch on the
beauty prize, the prettiest girl in the
world told us with her own rosebud
lips.that our first kiss felt like a flock
of Paradise birds auttering out each
ear and ended with a sensation like
,covey Of winged angels pouring mo.
lasses down her. spine.
No taste to the first kiss! Great
guns! It would make q wooden Indi'
ans hair curl up into a futtery marce
wave and his toe-nails quiver in &c
static bliss.
No taste to the first Kiss! Why, i
tastes like the ambrosia Of cherry bios

of them were, and many in these
days are, men who had before them
other and far more profitable ca
reers. They might have won wider
fame and made a great deal more
money. They have been content with
the appreciation of their own world,
and with salaries which, / believe,
never exceed six thousand dollars,
and are commonly much less.
When English critics. albeit in a
friendly spirit, have commented
in private, not in public-on the
American love of money-making, I
have made this answer, pointing to
the absolute unselfishness of one
of the highest types of American
citizen, all over the land, and to
their conception of what is best in
American life. / have always ad-
ded that though others may speak
of their remuneration as a sacrifice,
they never do. So far as l know
them, they are content and more
than content; they rejoice in their
work and in the modest circum-
stances which alone their income
permits. Now and then we hear of
some brilliant scholar as having
refused a lucrative post in order |
to go on teaching and studying. |
There are many more whom, we
never hear of publicly, to all of
whom the country owes debt of
gratitude if nothing else, which
it does not always pay. But here
in England If you state the facts
you will find them accepted, and
welcomed as the best answer to
the reproach of money-ambitions-

This would help reduce taxes.
But more than that, it would give
the criminal chance. Out In Gods
