IN ALL SHADES OF PETUNIA
Designers Have Worked Wonders
With Materials of Velvet, Silk
and Crepe de Chine.

Petunia shades in velvet, silk and
is small wonder that the petunia cos
tune has become a fad. Because OF
the cost OF the materials In which
the peculiar purple and red tones are
most perfect, these get-ups are usually
seen at afternoon receptions and at
evening dances. One of the most sue
cessful models is a three-piece cos.
tune, consisting of a petunia red.
colored silk skirt, a blouse, also of the
silk, cut away at the shoulders and
elbows to show a round-necked
guimpe in petunia rose malines, and
three-quarter coat in petunia purple
velvet, lined with satin matching the
rose Of the malines. The purple velvet
hat carries petunia red ostrich plumes
and the gloves and shoes are in black
suede. This choice of minor acces-
sories Ia a wise one, for were they in
white, gray or even In glace black,
they would glare at the dull petunia
tones
Dull and inconspicuous accessories
invariably accompany the petunis
evening costumes These are usually
in two or more shades in malines and
are chiefly worn as dancing frocks by
young girls. Occasionally, however, a
young matron is seen in a trained
gown Of petunia-shaded malines or
chiffon, frightened by necklace or a
dog collar in rubies, amethysts or em
eralds set In dull Dutch silver.

NO EARS FOR ANYTHING ELSE
Unlucky Bettor Had All His Attention
centered on Remarks That His
Wife Was Making.

They were talking about the race
track. and when the man with the
Van Dyke beard mentioned the fact
that he had seen his first horse race
only the day before, the old race goer
with the gray beard leaned over and
queried:
Didn't you think It great sport?"
Yes" he slowly admitted, but his
looks belied his words.
Mighty exciting, ISN'T it?" contin-
ued the first speaker enthusiastically.
"Yes, It certainly is" was the quiet
answer.
$50 that was your first race, eh?"
"The very first, sir, and my last, too,
I'm thinking"
"But you can't possibly mean that7
You certainly must have enjoyed such
rare sport?"
"At first-yes."

post didn't 1t make your hair stand

Seems to me It did"
"And as they came up on the home
stretch, neck and neck, could you con-
tain yourself?"
IL managed to-"
! That's funny" mused the old race
goer with a cold look at the other
Say, now, honestly, when the people
rose up and shouted as in one voice
weren't you carried away with enthu-
siasm?"
well, the fact is," replied he with
the Van Dyke beard, as If he thought
some explanation should be given,
"the fact is l wasn't listening to the
shouts of the crowd or paying much
attention to the horses after the first
race"
"You-you werentl" gasped the
other in astonishment.
mo, sir. You see, / lost five dol
lars on the first race, and all heard
after that were the remarks of my
wife concerning that fver!"

CLING TO LOW WAIST LINE
Noticeable In An the Seasons Child
lsh Models-Short Sleeves Re-
tain Their Popularity.

The majority of the styles for chill
dren which have been displayed thus
far have the low waist line, which Is
marked by sash plated into folds.
Sleeves are short, stopping at the ell
bow in order to display the rounded
dimple which generally turks there.
One unusually pretty model, which
would do very nicely for party dress,
is made of very sheer white batiste.
The neck of the garment is cut square
nd at the shoulder, on each side,
here is a series of small pin tucks,
which provides the necessary fullness.
The waist line Is very low, and deep

the dress by valenciennes lace insert

Two-PIeoe Dress for Girl.

The mother who takes pride in
dressing her children prettily can do
SO by adopting the idea of the two
piece dress. A little, underslip that
consists both of the skirt and guimpe
can be made of lingerie, net or EN-
broidery. A child always looks most
charming in costume which includes
white, and no color stands washing
as well. However, all white is some
times not practical. A little old-blue
overdress, blocked in equal, square
scaIlops on the bottom and sleeves
may be put over different little slips,
allowing about eight inches of the
white flounce to show from under the
scallops of the dress at the bottom.
The sleeves correspond to the bottom
Of the dress. The little neck is cut
deep to allow the white guimpe to
show. A cord Of blue silk holds the
dress in place at the neck and
in a tassel looped careless

SAYS CITY SHOULD
CONTROL 'TAXICABS
No Need for Such Exorbitant Rates
Here" Declares Miss Loeb. Auto
Inspector of New York.
HEARING ON FARES TOMORROW

You may call one soon and not have

Miss Loeb was appointed by Mayor
GaynOr. of New York. on the taNicab
commission there. and went abroad to
look up data, and she has become a
taxi rate expert. Rut this is just a
side line for Miss Loeb. She is a

Cab rates in Washington are ridic'I-
lously e&oTbttant.' said Miss Loeb.
There d no reason in the world why
the city cannot regulate the rates of
cabs and control it's own streets and
there is no cause that any taxi company
can show why their cabs should be al
lowed to stand at certain places and get
the cream of the business while the pub
lie cabman. who would give lower rates
is left to pick the bone.
This is economically wrong. You can
not get low rate until you have an
equal chance for competition.
And l want to say right here" Miss
Loeb continued enthusiastically. that
the taXicab companies always have a lot
of figures to present as to their expenses
which. in fact. rarely prove anything be-
cause of their highly paid officials and
the fact that they do business only with
certain amount Of patrons.

A Bad INDIGESTION.

Fortunate Is the one who can eat
anything" without suffering the tor
lures of dyspepsia, but as few are so
fortunate. care should be taken in the
matter Of diet. Eating slowly. masti-
eating the food thoroughly and taking
short walk after the heavy meal OF
the day will do much towards assisting
digestion. Any grown-up person ought
to know the peculiar foods that do not
agree, and these should be avoided
When these common-sense aids fail

good pepsin. 1t has other ingredients
that act mildly on the bowels, which
together form a combination for the
relief OF dyspepsia or indigestion that
is unsurpassed.
Its action is to tone and strengthen
the stomach and bowel muscles so that
they can again do their work naturally
without outside aid. and when that
happy moment comes all medicines can
be dispensed with. 1t is the best rem
edy obtainable for any disorder OF the

ago she claims to have located seat
OF the trouble In the public license of-
fee.
There are thousands OF licenses grant

vision Is made for abuse For example.
the license department Issues licenses to
moving picture houses. dance halls. pub
lie conveyances, etc, and yet I believe
you have but two or three inspectors TO
see that the law is enforced in regards
to the operating OF these places and cabs.
There Is no reason why Washington
cannot regulate its own cabs. The New
York ordinance has been upheld in the
courts. There is no reason that just be-
cause the city OF Washington grants a
license to one cab, it should be concerned
with the cost and operation OF one cab
and not a cab company. And that IL
the best argument ! have Miss Loeb
finished.

BLOCKADE OF PORTS

1t will cost the government millions II
the United States blockades the Mexican
ports. Should the land as well as the
naval forces be used agai:Ist Mexico. the
cost would be doubled and probably
trebIed.
When the Spanish war broke out Con-
gress appropriated an emergency fund o..
so, ,OO0OO0. In this instance Congress un-
dOQbtedly will place a big appropriation
at the disposal of President Wilson. In
1895. following the authorization OF $50
600. OO0 Congress revised the internal rev.
enue laws.
No less an authority than Senator
Ollie James. of Kentucky, member OF the
Finance Committee and spokesman for
the administration. said some time ago
that If war with Mexico came. entailing
heavier expenditures. he would not advo-
cate raising customs duties but would
double the income tax, il necessary.
The revenues could be still further aug
mented by1a special stamp tax. such as
was imposed during the Spanish-Aneri-
can war. 1t is estimated that the income
tax, II doubled, would add S1o0. 600 to
the war chest and the special tax might
produce as much more. and that this
would be ample for the beginning Of hos
tilities. Already the leaders in Congress,
and especially the Ways and Means Com
mittee, of the House, have given thought
to the question of war revenues
No one expects the militia would be
called out in the early stages Of hostili-
tics, and, this expense would be spared
There are experts who believe that d
will not be necessary to bring the militia
into actual service. But this will depend
on circumstances 1t Is estimated by
some Of the experts in the War Depart
ment that the calling out of the yolun-
teers and their transportation and main
tenance would cost $50 100000.

better prepared for war today than IL
