I'm case a grave international pc

The president replied that such al

kaiser then said:
well, arrange it so that if ] ash

be able to give me different answer

this necessity.

WOMAN'S COLUMN

fed over the new fashions as their
elders. Frocks for the five year old5
have tiers of ruff1es about the hip line
to give bouffant silhouette just like
mammals. Quaint little short wasted
dresses of pompadour taffe&as and
brilliant hued Pciret silks have tiny
pinked ruchings around the bottom of
the skirts and an adorable little
pleated flesh colored chiffon has a
smoked yoke and girdle of deeper rose
while the skirt is cunningly hobbled
with band of the shocking.
For little lads the David Copperfield
suits with their white waists collared
and cuffed in colored linen to match
the three quarter trousers which fas
ten high up on the waist with large
white pearl buttons are most attract
i've. Sheer pleated white frills around
the neck and sleeves in lieu of the
collar and cuffs of colored linen are
more dressy and turn a sturdy little
American boy into a fac simile of the
little Dauphin of France.
The long trousered white linen sail.
or suits still hold their own in spite
of the David Copperfeld rival and in
fact reign supreme, in the heart of
the small boy who rebels internally at
the more picturesque attire wished on
him by doting maternal parents and

Some Propositions Are
To Be Voted on Soon
At the City Election

The city trustees have submitted
for decision at the coming election
two important questions, one of these
being submitted as six different prop
ositions, though in reality they arc
ore.
Tie first question is whether the
trustees shall devote a portion OF
their time each day to city work and
draw small salary. This is GER
tainly wise proposal, and should be
adopted.
The other six propositions raise the
question whether to turn the control
of public service corporations over
to the state railroad commission. AS
this commission has at its command
force of experts in determining
fair rates and has power to enforce
those rates, the proposals should be
carried.
Here are the proposals as they will
appear on the ballots. Vote "Yes" for
all:
Shall the ordinance dividing the
administration of the municipality in
to five departments, to wit: The
water department, finance depart
mcnt, police department, street de-
partment and health department, be

NINE. SUZANNE JOIRE

New York, April 5.-Before sail
ing for her beloved France, Nine Su-
zanne Joire, the premiere dressmaker
of Paris, who has just completed a
tour of the larger, American cities,
declared that the American women
were the most beautiful in the world,
but that their husbands look like rag
pickers. "The American women dress
as we'll as the women of Paris" said
Nine. Joire, "and they are more beau
tiful, but the men are the worst J
have ever known. Their trousers are
baggy, their coats do not fit. / am
glad to leave them and go back to
Paris, where the men know how to
wear clothes and whose faces are
made more handsome by hirsute
adornments."

Because of too much tongoihg.
Been cased in plaste:. cast.
But now they've cast the dust aside
OF plaster cast foot gear
And as a model out 3cme they
IN bronze each one appear.
New York, April g.. Yea, verify; if
lovely woman wants to PIT the best
foot foremost this season she must see
to it that it be shod in h;-onzc. Though
the idol in Fashion has clay feet, yet
they are sure to be brorze coated.
Indeed it were almost better to wear
a black eye than a black shoe, so if
you want the stamp of sartorial ap-
proval you must do your own stamp
ing in bronze boots.
One of the loveliest of the new
bronze models is dubbed TIE Ostend.
1t has the colonial tongue, but spurn-
ing the buckle, a neat little strap
fastens it on one side with button
of cut steel or bronze. Of course this
model is developed in black, white,
white and gun metal, of kid. suede or
cloth, but it is when of bronZe kid
that it has reached its acme Of per-
fection.
The elaborate strapping of the tan
go slipper is shown to advantage in
the bronze kid and another pretty cf
feet is a slipper with two straps eros
sing over the instep and fastening
with peweled buttons on each side.
The debutante still clings to the fiat
heeled pump and sandal, but for her
more seasoned sisters the higher the
French heel the more it is to their
sole satisfaction.
Both white and bronzed hued silk
hose are smart with the bronze foot
wear and bright green, blue and violet
are often worn with impunity and
matching costume. What boots it if
your face be bronzed by the summer
winds just so your feet are bronzed
by the boots of the Mode. And after
all what could be more fitting for
your pedal extremities. Isn't bronze
base metal?
Larger even that the checks of
corporation president are the checks
Of the coat suits now being much af-
fected for smart street wear. Black
and white is the favored combination
and in both the huge checks and wide
stripes this color contrast develops
costumes that are startlingly chic
and striking. 1t is with these toi.
lettes of light and shade that the
black shoe has its one inning. With
costume like this the black patent kid
Ostend or Colonial pump is the really
smart finish to white silk stockinged
foot.
Ihe black and white striped silks
are wonderfully good for the after
noon informal frocks and one lovely
white silk crepe striped in red like
a peppermint stick was the envied
possession of dark-haired belle at
a recent Broadway theatrical opening.
The skirt was simply draped, farinG
out triangularly over the hips. The
waist cut all in one piece opened down
the front over sheer vest of tulle
while fitted frill of the tuIle piped
in red outlined the low neck. A wide
crush belt of jet trimmed black moirc
and smart black hemp hat smacked
up on one side to reveal the grey of
powdered locks completed the raw
ishing ensemble. In words of the gal
lery she certainly looked the candy

COTTON GOODS
CONTINUE QUIET
I'm Dubious Conditions Neither
BUYERS Nor Millers Will
Take Chances.

Fall River. Mass, Dec. 13.-The cot
ton goods markets we're very quiet last
week, and this condition applies TO
the New York and Southern markets as
well. Not only were cloths of print
yarn constructions quiet, but the de-
maud for fine goods and fancies was
light 10 seems that buyers have all the
goods at present which they can con-
veniently handle.
Manufacturers have a fair-sized &C
emulation Of goods, and it is an easy
matter for most buyers TO purchase
from stocks, especially when the call
Is for the ordinary counts manufact-
ured by the mills. However. the de-
mand Is not sufficient 10 keep the
weekly production of mills moving, and
10 is on this account that mills are in
a position 70 supply from stocks rea-
sonable quantities of goods.
Some mills have contracts expiring
this month. and agents and tressurers
are M a loss what line of goods to
manufacture TO take the place of the
warrs now beginning to run out. Some
buyers have admitted that they are in
a position to buy and really want to
buy, but general conditions are so du-
bous that they do not want TO take
chances. On the other hand, manu-
facturers do not want TO pile up goods,
but unless larger business develops
curtaiIment will be extended.
In the print cloth trade there has
