The Power of Example

wondered In my childish way how
n was that father never suspected me
Of doing what he so openly and in my
nresence accused mother of doing. IT
was the same with mother. IL she

she suspected the wash woman, or
the ice man, or the errand boy--any
one and every one but her daughter
7 suppose she never realized that in
teaching me to deceive father she was
teaching me to deceive not only him,
but herself and others as well, and
that, in letting me know how she took
money from father without his knowl-
edge, she was giving me a lesson in
dishonesty that ! could hardly fail to
learn.
Like many parents, mine were not
alive to the fact that every word and
action / heard or saw in my home was
Just so much training along the right
or wrong line of life, says writer in

mother gave me good housing, dressed
me seasonably, sent me to school,
punished me when it satisfied them to
do so-but it was all without the
slightest perception of the truth that

Ostrich Plume Has Come
Into Its Own Again

In the world of millinery the os-
trieh feather has once more come
into its own. The reason for the os-
trieh fad may be found in that cause
for many changes, the war. Experts
in fashioning the barnyard fantasies
which have held sway for many
months are at the front, and the
American manufacturer of ostrich
feather novelties is now having his
turn.
But the ostrich feathers of today
are not bit like those of yesterday
or last month. The new trimmings
remind one of various other things
besides the softly curling plumes OF
the desert bird. There was one black
velvet hat with a bandeau of grayish
spines that looked like a porcupine,
and another looked as II a tortoise
cat had stretched himself full length
and cufled up around the crown of a
wide brimmed black velvet picture
hat The technical name of the new
ostrich trimming is ecaillle, says an
exchange.

have been absent from the fashionable

wide curving brim with its wealth
of plumes, has again been approved
by fashion; but then there never was
a time when women were offered

as it looks chic. The size may range
from the tight-flttin basque hat.
which accentuates the long straight
lines of the modern dress. to the
Duchess of Devonshire effect; but the
chances are it will be trimmed with
feathers.
Among the new colors are pauline
blue, jasper green, sphinx, which is
a stone color; skunk brown, antique
gold, prelate purple, rhubarb, brassy
tint; naples yellow, fawn and wine
color. Black velvet is the favorite
material for the hat foundation.

Wilson Denies UItmatum
The President said there were one
or two members of the committee who
were against the repeal, but who, he
understood, would vote to bring the
question promptly before the Senate in
an early report. Incidentally the Pres
ident took occasion to deny a publish
ed report that he had sent an ulti-
matum to the Senate with a view to
forcing early action. He had done
nothing, he said, along this line. He
added that no proposals for compro
mise or change in the repeal measure
had been brought to him and signifi-
cantly suggested that amendments
were not being offered by administra-
ton leaders.
The President has more than once
made plain that he believed it the
duty of the American Congress to re-
peal the tolls exemption without equiv
ocation or evasion and that he was
against any amendments. He told
callers frankly that while he did not
expect obstructive tactics in the Sem
