GOOD THINGS TO REPEAT.

The past weeks effort for the arous- ing of increased interest in the value of Norwich as 8 trading center has had its good results. It has brought many people to the city for the dem onstration and the manner in which they have been convinced, indicated by expression and trade. is going to be of much future benefit both to those people and to business The result will be as in other centers where such plans have been tried out, a constant ly increasing appreciation of the ben efits which have been attained.
 It has brought out strongly the inn portance of cooperative effort ana while there may have been mistakes thsy only serve to better prepare for any future efforts. Out of 1t all much valuable experience has been gain ed It is shown that business exten- sion is to be gained through telling the public, and those who are in the field to buy are susceptible to a con- vincing appeal, when travelling facili- ties, trade advantages and publicity are brought to their attention By it's cooperative spirit it has served to get business out of some of its old time ruts which could well be abandoned.
 The industrial exposition and the cannot wisely be ignored and they have become identified with the busi- ness activity of the city in a way which should make them a permaneg. yearly feature.

EVERY CITY NEEDS IT,

The city of Indianapolis is discour- aging an effort there which every city needs. This is the clean up move- n1ent and it is not responding to the excellent appeals contained therein because the position is taken by the board of public works that the city Is cleaning the streets and alleys all the time and that 8 special week for such a purpose is unnecessary. In this all the time effort Indianapolis may have cause for congratulations over other cities, but the clean up movement Is an individual as well as public
 movement. and in which everyone is working for the same purpose stimu- lated by the cofnmsndable demands of beauttfioati5n and health.

DEPENDS ON HuERrA.

What will result from the offer of mediation which has been made by the three South American republics depends entirely upon what consider ation is given 1t by Huerta. In this undertaking as well as in the entire unpleasantness surrounding the indig- nifty to this country which precipitated the situation as 1t exists today, every thing rests with Huerta. The desire of this country Is for peace and as one of the leaders fin the movement for it's establishment throughout the world and the position which it has taken in behalf of arbitration of international disputes, it must naturally be expect ed and prepared to live up to it's teach fngs- This government has taken such a position in regard to war that when 1t finds itself pushed into difficulties and mediation is offered it does not as was well said by the president feel at liberty to decline it.'
 The hope is general that some such solution of the matter as mediation can secure will prevail and in this connection it is a significant fact that the offer comes from these South American countries, which, represent ing Latin America as they do, are bound to have strong influence from that standpoint in the interest of peace and civilization, and "a new GAy of mutual cooperation and confidence in America" Whatever becomes of 1t, 1t is a magnificent thing that it should be attempted displaying as it does growing interest in the eIimina- ton of war. The time is now ripe, if it is to prevent a more serious phase of the Mexican trouble, and the suc- cess of the nediators' tender of good offices to the Huerta government will be awaited with keen interest.

SHOULD BE SETTLED.

There would be cause for greater rejoicing if the armistice which has been declared in Colorado coal camps could be made something more than a temporary affair The state of af- fairs in that region has shown that something more than luu in the trouble Is required. It is a settlement of their labor war rather than con- tinuance on which the leaders should be planning and if those who are in positions of influence have the inter ests and welfare of their people at heart their greatest efforts will be di- rected to such an end.
 Colorado authorities have the op- portunity- for the exertion of the greatest influence for the adjustment of the trouble which has developed into such a deplorabIe disregard for and display of law and order. and the time to do it is now, before there is any resumption of hostinties. What is needed now as has always been the case is a disposition upon the part of those who are directing the trouble, to get together and settle their diff ferences in a peaceful manner rather than by endeavoring through force, lawlessness and the waste of human lffe to stand IOT the lIupOSSlDIo NH6lH- CT it is obtainable or not. There is without doubt fault on both sides and it is likely that each side would have to make some concessions, but such would be preferable to the continua- ton of such conditions as exist there at the present time. There is cer- tainly plenty of work in Colorado coal field for the peacemakers and no op- portunity for the advancement of their efforts should be allowed to pass un- challenged.

TIME MILL TELL

Time alone will reveal the amount of sincerity wAich is back of the state ments being made by Pancho Villa concerning his friendliness for the United States and just how correct is the distrust which is being aroused against him. It will require time even for Villa to prove his position, even though faith is placed in his utter arsces.
 While the rebels may have better reasons than others for taking advan- 'tage of the American feeling against Huerta, Mexico has never been united against a foreign foe in such a way that it would make it surprising for Villa to take the stand which he has, if his declarations can be believed.
 It is noteworthy fact that during the Spanish invasion of Mexico by Cortez in 1519, during the Mexican war under Generals Taylor and Scott in 1s47 and again in 1882 when the French under Maximilian entered that country that a solid front was never presented to the enemy. Ma terial assistance was given in each and every case by the Mexicans to the in yaders the American army having been furnished much valuable service by the Mexican Indians in vending their way to Mexico City, while the French invasion was stimulated by Mexicans. In each instance, if direct aid was not given to the foreigners many revolutions were started to give the Mexican government trouble.
 Knowing the declared position of this country and it's friendliness to the Mexican people there is even more reason now for the manifestation of approval by Villa of the step which this country has taken.

CAP BOWS.

One may possess only two poudoir caps, but seemingly great many more by the addition of different culored bow of ribbon now and then
 Sometimes it may not be more than a knot of ribbon, a three or four inch piece left over from longer piece used for trimming. It is a wise plan to save all scraps of ribbon three inch es long or over. Not only do they make boudoir cap bows and knots, but they may be used to ornament un- dergarments. There is one popular girl who trims her boudoir caps en- tirely with bows made from candy box ribbons. It is a pretty fashion to have a knot of ribbon upon the cap to match the kimono or the ribbons Of the nightrobe.

NECKLACE FADs.

Sometimes two and three necklaces are worn at one time. The fash ionable necklace is from twenty seven to thirty inches in length with beads in every color, which may be either uniform or graduated in size. Some of the combinations are amber and jet. coral and jet, jade and amber and jet and pearl. Silk or bead tassels, in place of q pendant, are new.
 These necklaces are of various col- ored beads. with the tassel match ing one of the colorings. Such neck laces can be easily made at home, as the beads can be purchased sing1y and it requires no effort to string them in pretty combinations. Use the un- breakabie thread that comes especially for this purpose. Large round brightly colored beads will make a necklace in cubist design. You car make up any combination, and fee sure that your necklace is fashionable

 If you like that sort of thing, if it makes you content. if you realize the wonder and nobleness of it, then teach.
 But if you measure success by sal ary, and If you are continually lust ing for the flesh pots of money grub bers, then keep out of the teachers s trade.
 There is large portion of the world to whom success means only money. They suppose that only those persons engage in professional life who are in competent to sell goods or win on the board of trade.

 The financial rewards of men. as society is now constituted, are far from being in proportion to the worth of their services. A certain foxlike tune venture can bring him s1oo, 900 for five minutes work. The quality of mind that earns $50,000 a year in a bank or a corporation is not very high; it is simply scarce. Besides, every day thousands of dollars are left by inheritance to idle, worthless and vicious heirs, who do nothing at all to merit their pay.

IN PLACE OF HAT PINS.

If you have trouble keeping your hat on just at the right angle, sew a very narrow elastic loop half an inch long, the color of the hat. to the. hat on the unGer side directly in back. and one at each side and in front, if desired all though the one in front is not abso- lutely necessary. Pin the hat on by means of long hairpins passed through these loops. Be sure and use very long hairpins, so that you can get a firm grip of the hair. It Is often 8 difficult matter to find 8 place through which to thrust a hatpin without jab- ping through the trimming, but by using these little loops, which will not show, the hat will be as hrn as a rock and always in place, and it will not be disfigured by pinholes.

Dr. Adolph Tournade of Lyons, France, in an effort to see the influ- ence at work upon fat, had a swine herd and a goose girl stuff pigs and geese until they were many pounds overweight. He then selected various pigs and geese and put them through various gymnastics. At first for only a few minutes and gradually there after for a longer and longer time, the creatures were made to walk, run, roll swim, gallop and climb. They were also massaged. According to the French physician. climbing. bending and swimming caused 6 reduction in weight, while walking, running, roll ing, gal1oping and lack of sleep had no effect whatever.
