The Association of Skirt, Dress and
Suit Makers have decreed that lovely
woman's attire shall be more roomy
the coming fall season. This is a
bright spot on the horizon for the
cotton grower There are said to be
2O,OOO,0OO women in this country alone
who wear clothes, and should the
fashion require yard and half more
cloth for a dress, it would mean a
consumption of 100000 yards more
cloth. Figures do not lie. Here is a
ray Of sunshine that ought to dissi-
pate the gathering gloom. Now if the
Filipinos and Chinese and Cubans
and other nationalities that aspire
for recognition in the world of civili-
cation should require that their skirts
be made an inch longer cotton ought
to jump like 1t did when Sully was in

1t is reported that definite agree
ment has been reached by the Italian
state railways and group of Chilean
lumbermen, acting in conjunction
with the Chilean state railways, in
the negotiations that have been pend
ing for some time past in regard to
the purchase by the Italian railroads
of 100000 Chilean ties. The con-
tract dimensions of the ties are: Two
meter 40 centimeters (94.49 inches)
by IA centimeters (551 inches) by "a
centimeters (9.45 inches), running
about Is ties to the ton.
Delivery is to be made at the rate
Of some 100000 ties per year, to be
carried to Italy as a return cargo on
italian steamers bringing Cardiff coal
to the Chilean state railways. The
principal ports Of shipment will be
Corral and Puerto Mont.
The contract price is not known,
but the obtaining of this contract is
looked upon as a marked step in the
development Of the Chilean lumber
industry.

PREHISTORIC WORKS IN OHIO
In the State There Are Some Five
Thousand Remains Of Ancient
Civilization.

On the banks of the Scioto, within
four miles of Columbus, on its north
boundary, stand two conspicuous ex-
amples of the work of the prehistoric
peoples of that vicinity. One is on the
old Flenniken farm, on the east bank
of the river, and on the west side of
the river road, about mile north of
the water pumping station and filtra-
ton plant. The other is on the west
side of the river, three miles farther
north, and is on the west side of the
road that skirts the west shore of the
river. 1t is on the Shrum farm.
They are mounds of the same type
and Of considerable size They stand
on level planes, from which they rise
abruptly and symmetrically to height
Of twenty or twenty-five feet. 1t must
appear to any observer, writes H. ].
Galbraith In the Columbus Dispatch,
that they are artificial and not natural
mounds. The owners of the proper
ties have long placed high values on
them and have not been disposed to
permit them to be opened. AS a mat
ter Of fact scientific psychologists are
not anxious to explore these mounds,
for, while they admire them as ex-
amples of the work Of the ancient in
habitants here, they know from expe-
rience in exploring such earthworks
that it is extremely unlikely that they
would yield anything worth the time
and labor it would take to make the
explorations.
There are several less conspicuous
mounds in the county that Doctor
Mills, the curator of the museum at
Ohio State university, would prefer to
open, mounds that the general public
would lightly regard, if indeed they
would recognize them as the work of
prehistoric peoples at all. There is a
mound of this kind on the Olentangy
river near Worthington that is hardly
known at all to the general public that
Doctor Mills has been watching for
some time. II know that mound would
yield q rich store of treasures" said
he. There isn't any sort of doubt
about it, but l feel sure that anyone
who would explore the two Scioto
mounds would get little for his pains"
Counting them all, big and little,
there are probably $50 earthworks Of
these ancient people within the bor-
ders of Franklin county, and five or
six thousand in the state of Ohio. No
other state in the Union is richer in
the evidences of prehistoric civiliza-
ton than the Buckeye state is.

One of several styles in underbod-
ices, designed to be worn with the
fashionable thin blouses that every
one wears this summer, is made of
sheer batiste, swiss embroidery, val
lace and narrow beading. The sleeves
are made separately and set in. One
may buy bodices like this at such a
moderate price that 1t is hardly worth
while to make them, although those
made at home cost a little less If made
on the sewing machine. But there Is
some satisfaction in choosing just
the patterns in lace that suit the indi-
vidual taste, and lace sewed together
by hand looks better on close exam
nation than machine work.
The lower part of the bodice pic
tured is strip of batiste hemmed at
each end and gathered into a narrow
strong beading at the lower edge.
This beading is finished with an edg-
ing of narrow val lace and carries
lingerie ribbon, which is drawn up and
tied to adjust the bodice at the waist
line.
The top edge of the strip is to be

RICHES FROM NEVADA MINE
From Single Ore Shoot the National
Has Yielded Four Million Dollars
In Four Years.

Four million dollars in four years is
the record which single ore shoot at
National, New, has made. The dis
trict, prior to 1908, was little known.
1t lies on the western slope of Santa
Rosa range in Humboldt county. The
mineral deposits of this range, says
the bulletin of the United States geo.
logical survey, may be divided into
two principal classes, younger gold
misunderstanding veins that occur in
or near the tertiary volcanic rocks,
and much older misunderstanding
veins that occur in sedimentary and
associated granite rocks. In this area
the older deposits are but poorly rep
resented and have yielded only a
small output, but one of the younger
or tertiary veins has been wonderfully
rich, yielding much ore averaging $50
pound. During the early period OF
activity few thousand tons of low
grade ore, assaying about $500 ton.
We're thrown on the dump of the Ma
tional mine, but the ore shipped aver
aged about 100000 ton in gold hav-
ing value of $1,000 an ounce, the
remainder being silver. Cinnabar was
found in one of the veins.
Native gold is found principally in
the rich shoot of the National vein,
the isolated position of which, In a dis
trict of quartz-stibnite veins poor in
gold and silver, Is remarkable. The
several veins appear to belong to the
same epoch of naturalization, the gold
shoot being local development upon
one of the normal stibnite veins. The
gold shoot was encountered 40 feet
below the surface and has been fol-
lowed on the dip of the vein for 500
feet, the stope length reaching $50
feet. The ore, which ran $40 to $50
to the pound, occurred mostly in an
irregular seam from few inches to
a foot wide.

ratner was very rich and very par
simonious, to use long word that
sounds better than the short one which
means the same thing, and the son at
times was chagrined because father
ala not. look as well as a man in
his station might be considered to
nave the right to look. Father had re-
tired from business some years before
and folks said that under the boys
management it would speedily 90 to
the dogs. They declared:
The boys tiptop fellow, and we

nose for profits and deals that made
the business for the old man. He
doesn't really care whether he makes
money or not. That is not the way

The old man with his nose for
proflts had accumulated a lot of hab-
Its that did not desert him when he re-
tired from business. He was sure,
OF course, while he had an income
that might have made Wall street
broker happy, that it was necessary
to care for the nickels, and he spent
as little on raiment as decency and
the climate would permit. Chaff, ad-
vice and sarcasm did not move him a
particle.
Now, the mosi cherished article in
his wardrobe was a certain old over
coat, which, like the bag that Henry
Ward Beecher carried with him when
he went on his lecture tours, must
at some time have been new" The
coat now, however, was faded and
worn and far from handsome. Every
new man at the club was called into
corner and told yarns about the
coat and its wearer. Father, for that
matter, knew all about this, but he
cared nothing for laughs and jibes.
The son tried and tried again to
induce the old man to buy a coat.
At length he resorted to strategy.
One day when the father was con-
fined to the house the son took the
coat to a tailor.
