One of their best efforts is shown
in the illustration given with this ar
ticle. 1t is suit OF white pique with
plain short pants and belted blouse
The blouse opens over a small w.
shaped vest which allows a bit Of dec
oration in the form of spray of lit-
tie flowers and leaves embroidered In
white. The sailor collar is finished
with scallops edged with buttonhole
stitch, instead of hem. This is about
all the decorating that one may ex-
pect To find In even the dressiest garb
for the small boy.
In order that the blouse may set
we'll few boxplaits run from shoul-
der TO hem. The loose belt. OF the
fabric, is slipped through narrow
straps, also of the pique. The belt
drops toward the front and may be
fastened with a buckle or clasp fasten-
ers OF preferably buttons and button
holes. The sleeves are rather full and
short enough to escape the wrist.
Short white socks and low canvas
pumps finish the toilet OF the young
gentleman. and he will not meet an.
other better dressed than himself. He
is outfitted In correct style whether
he be the son of millionaire or q
duke or just an average man.

VOICE OF CONSCIENCE DEAD
All the Fault Of Nurse That Small Girl
Could Not Walk In the
Straight Path.

Maria had been naughty and mother,
seriously demonstrating with her,
thought to press home a needed sug-
gestion.

doing wrong, my DEAR" she said, sol
emnly. 1T always makes US unhappy
when we do wrong"
"But-but often don't know it's
wrong till I've done It," sighed the
small culprit.
But" mother urged again, "you
should know, my darling Your con-
science will tell you II you listen"
What Is my conscience and how
will 1t tell ne?' wide-eyed and eager
Your conscience is the little voice
inside you that says MOL when you

a voice like that once, but nurse said

OFFICE BUILDING OF FUTURE

Duluth.-That the skyscraping Of
fee building of the near future will
contain many new features is the
prediction of c. A. Patterson, secre-
tary of the National Association of
Building Owners and Managers, in an
address at the opening of the associa-
tons convention held here recently.

the middle name Of the modern sky
scraper 1t will be matter of very
short time when big office buildings
will have elevators running not only
up and down from the street to the
top of the building but running hori-
zontally on different floors. Further
more, patrons will pay fares to ride
on these elevators and get transfers
from the vertical lifts to the horizon
tai, just as We get them on street
cars now.
They will pipe pure air from the
country right into the big city build
ings, just as they pipe pure water,
and bungalows built on top of tail
buildings will house the owners in

fortify their wearer against chill.
The cool air, dropping down from
frosty mountain tops, and breezes that
have travelled from the land Of Ice
bergs to that Of seaside hotels, are
the reasons for the existence of sweat
ers. They stand daily use. and manu-
facturers are endeavoring to make
them attractive, and have. In fact. sue
ceeded In doing some very beautiful
knitting. 1t would not do to get too
far away from simplicity. and 1t is in
new ways of knitting that the beat OF
new attractions lie.
The sweater for little girl. shown
here, could hardly be palmer. close
ly knitted border and pocket at each
side are not purely decorative figures,
but they afford all the details Of orna-
mentation except the border Of fancy
knitting about the bottom.
On sweater coats for grownups
there are collars In several styles
which add much to their finish. But
aside from this they are about the
same as the model shown In the pic
ture.

Just the most fashionable garment
y for mountain and seaside resorts,
where mornings and evenings bring
exhilarating breezes with a snappy
chill In them, is the silk sweater-coat.
These smart garments are selling
freely at figures which rather take
ones breath away. Twenty-Five to
thirty dollars each seems high price
for a sweater OF any sort. But there
Is no difficulty In finding people who
are quite willing to pay 1t. Once let
fashionables, and their imitators, get
used to unusual prices and there is
not telling the length to which they
will go.
Besides the sweaters and sweater
coats of silk-there are others. Those
of wood fiber, which looks like silk,
and is as strong or stronger, are much
lower in price, about half as high.

Mr.. Thompson declares estimates as
to the age OF the city vary from less
than 1000 years TO more than 1880
years. An idea of the intricacies OF
the language of the people of the city
is given by the following quotation
from a document found there: "Lai u

Nonoual," which is translated to
mean, This is a series of epochs that
elapsed from the time of their de-
parture from the house of Nonoual
in the land of Tulapan."
The writer tells legend concerning
Canek, the fmpetuous ruler of Chichen
liza, who loved the daughter of the
ruler of distant province. One day
a runner brought him the news that
the Batab of a neighboring and far
more powerful province had married
the maiden. Canek and his warriors
went to his enemy's city under cover
OF darkness, while all was revelry
there in celebration of the wedding.
After venting their fury on the drunk
en- celebrants they stole the bride OF
an hour and disappeared. Never
again did Chichen liza know its Lord
Canek nor any of his band of fighters.

Terms, but Patriotic Committee
Accepted Them.

Windhurst and Bladderburst were
rival towns in the gulch when the
champion of the hair-trigger arrived
in the vicinity. Each settlement
wanted him for an attraction. The
committee from Windhurst got to him
first, and the chairman of the COM
mittee asked:
How much do you want to shoot
up the town for one night?"
The champions ultimatum was in
these words: "All you've got in
money; town to furnish the liquor and
powder; first rakeoff from all games;
hundred per cent of movin' pictures;
and all royalties from my forthcom-
ing book, Easy Marks I've Met Does
it go?"
The committee allowed that 1t
would put their posterity in the poor
house, but decided that the gaiety of
Bladderburst must be squelched.
Thereupon the champion was given
the right of way for a one-night up
shoot of Windhurst, all rights being
reserved for the champion.-The Sun.

WILSON GIVES HIS VIEWS

Following is the official statement is
sued as representing the views Of
President Wilson and the administra-
ton on Mexico:
I'm discussions in official circles in
Washington of the present Mexican
situation the following points have
been very much dwelt upon:
1T has been pointed out that, in
considering the present somewhat
delicate situation in Mexico, the un~
pleasant incident at Tampico must not
be thought of alone. For some time
past the de facto government of Mex
leo has seemed to think mere apollo
giles sufficient when the rights of
American citizens or the dignity of
the government of the United States
were involved and has apparently
made no attempt at either reparation
or the effective correction of the seri-
Gus derelietions Of it's civil and mill
tary officers.
Orderly Placed In jail.
Immediately after the incident at
Tampico an orderly from one of the
ships of the United States in the har-
Dor of Vera Cruz, who had been sent
ashore to the post office for the ships
mail, and who was in uniform and
who had the official mall bag on his
back, was arrested and put into jail
by the local authorities. He was sub
sequently released and nominal pun
ishment was inflicted upon the officer
who arrested him, but 1t was signifi-
cant that an orderly from the fleet Of
the United States was picked out
from the many persons constantly 60
ing shore on various errands, from
the various ships in the harbor, rep
resenting several nations.
Official Dispatch Withheld.
Most serious of all, the officials In
charge of the telegraph Office at Mex
leo City presumed to withhold an off,
cial dispatch of the government of the
United States to its embassy at Mex
leo City, until 1t should have been
sent to the censor and his permission
received to deliver 1t, and gave the
dispatch into the hands of the charge
daffaires of the United States only
upon his personal and emphatic de-
mand, he having in the meantime
learned through other channels that
a dispatch had been sent him which
he had not received.
United States Singled Out.
1T cannot but strike anyone who
has watched the course of events in
Mexico as significant that untoward
Incidents such as these have not oc-
Cured in any case where representa-
tives of other governments were con-
cerned. but only in dealings with rep
resentatives of the United States, and
that there has been no occasion for
other governments to call attention to
such matters or to ask for apologies.
These repeated offenses against
the rights and dignity OF the United
States, offenses not duplicated with
regard to the representatives of other
governments. have necessarily made
the impression that the government
of the United States was singled out
for manifestations of Ill win and con.
tempt"
