Newest Baby Quilts.

Baby's newest down quilt is both
pretty and practical 1t has tie upper
and under sides of soft china silk of
either pale blue or pink. and over this
is a cover OF very sheer linen The
cover is the full size of the quilt
after the edges are turned over. and
1t is mitred at the corners. The over.
lay is at least five inches and is usu.
ally finished with an embroidered
scallop or lace edge. Is 1t not a fine
idea? For when the cover Is soiled It
can be easily removed and Numbered
and the silk quilt is protected from
dirt and dust and the soil Of frequent
handling.

new EVENING BODICE
HAS TWO FEATURES THAT CALL
FOR CONSIDERATION.
To Be Made Of the Skirt Material
Which Will Be Liked, and Has
Sleeves That Show the
Empire Influence.

There is too much evidence brought
out for the new kind of evening
bodice not to feel that 1t will win. II
Is not entirely attractive in its pres.
ent tentative guise. but no doubt Il
will grow in grace as the weeks ad.
vance.
1t Is made of the skirt material,
which cannot be said of all the waists
we have worn. and has sleeves. shot
little puffs only. also of the fabric. II
mas been more than one decade since
we haze worn an opaque sleeve and
one Of this shape. 1t is decidedly the
first empire influence.
Some of these sleeves are straight,
extending half way to the elbow and
finished there witt a stiff turn over
cum. also of the material. II is this
sleeve which women do not Ike, and
1t is not probable they will wear 1t.
However, its introduction In high
places gives one a chance to stop and
think. 1t may be modified and soft
ened. but it evidently leads the way
away from the evening sleeve of to-
day.
These two features are the most
important of the early season. They
point with an unmistakable finger
toward something different, but
whether the French openings vii
follow up the prophecy, or we will
follow up in detail the French show
ings. remains to be seen. At any
rate. it is well to fix ones mind upon
this possible fashion. II may keep
one from buying something that will
be hopelessly out of the running later
in the spring.
Those who know, feel that the very
wide skirt has had its day for street
wear. although six-yard ones are al
ready featured for the evening, placed.
however, over a much narrower un-
derskirt. This assembling of two dis
tinct types of skirt on figure is al
ways suggestive of the Orient. and in
one or two of its recent appearances.

Force Him to Go to Work-Has

Washington.-It begins to look as
though the travel days of the original
See America First" tourist-the
tramp-are now numbered. Chiefs of
police, sherfffs. constables, town mar.
shals, chief special agents of railways
and other peace officers of the coun.
try, quick in recognizing the effective
ness of the proposed federal trespass
law as a crime diminisher, are bend.
ing their efforts TO get congress to
pass the measure at the present ses-
sion. At last, these men declare,
there has been discovered the real So
luton Of the hobo problem. The tres
pass act is federal measure, carry
IL a penalty that is calculated to
keep tramps and all other undesir-
ables off the rights Of way of rail-
ways throughout the United States.
With such a block hystem," 1t is
said there can be only one result

nuisance. Police officials say that

transportation cut OF from Weary
Wraggles. but one thing will remain
for him-go to work. Officers of mu-
inequalities announce that with their
means OF travel taken from them, the
rounding up of the country's undesir-
ables will be an easy task. They will
not be able to get from place to place.
No community will tolerate them as
Migrants; consequently they will have
to go to work.
The agitation of the federal tres
pass law is the outcome of the recent
conference of the United States gov
ernment's industrial commission held
in Kansas City. Among the men in
vited to appear before this commits
sion and give views calculated to bet
ter the conditions of industrial life in
the country was AL G. Ray, chief spe-
cial agent of the Great Northern rail-
way, st. Paul. Ray outlined to the
commission the federal trespass law
as the only real simon-pure remedy for
the tramp evil. He announced that
he advocated this measure after %
years of police work. He said he had
studied similar systems : in countries
of the old world and they worked ef-
fectively. In those countries, he said,
especially England and Germany, the
traveller never sees tramp or the
right of way of railway.
Ray told the commission that he is
certain, from the study Of statistics
gathered on the transcontinental line
he policies. that the passage of fed
eral tresI SIS law would decrease
crime in the United States 60 per cent.

BEAR AFL0AT IN ICY RIVER
Hunters Took Shots at Him From
the Bank, But Hruin
Escaped.

Sunbury, Pa.-Watching the ice
pass out of the Susquehanna river
here, Elmer Mantz and George Whit
ney sighted big black bear floating
down the stream on log.
Rifles were procured and for miles
along the stream they tried to pot
bruin, but without success. Mantz said
it was the biggest bear he has ever
seen, and it is believed to be the one
that has been seen about. Seven
Kitchens.
Word was sent to towns along the
river as far as Harrisburg.
The bear had some difficulty staying
on the log. When big cake of ice
would shove up from the water and
threaten to dislodge it, it would strike
at it viciously with its paw.

On every side there are evidences

With the Present Styles There 10 Alb
soluteIy No Middle Course to
Be Adopted.

There certainly IL nothing half way
about fashion, and from the extremity
of no sleeves at all, or at least none
to speak of. the long sleeve is now
the dernier cri. For afternoon and
street wear they are absolutely the
only permissible sleeves. As the
total absence of arm covering still
holds good for evening toilets It is
simply a case of long sleeves or none.
While the velvet and satin basques
all show uncompromisingly long. tight
sleeves of the same materials. long
sleeves of lace and tulle are very

ROUMANIA'S ENGLISH QUEEN

After lapse of twenty-one years
the carefully laid plans Of the British
foreign Office are bearing most timely
fruit, and today an English princess, a
granddaughter of Queen Victoria. sits
upon the throne Of Roumania along
side the new king, Ferdinand |. whose
broken health and weak will make his
title a more than usually empty sham.
But Queen Marie is every inch a
queen. 1t has been said of her that
she combines the qualities OF Eliza
beth of England with the faults OF
Catherine of Russia. The truth is that
she is a very beautiful, high-spirited
and strong minded woman of nearly
forty.
She is the daughter of the duke
of Edinburgh, who later became duke
of Saxe-Coburg- Gotha. and her mother
was the radiant Grand Duchess Marie
of Russia, the petted child of the ILL
fated Car Alexander ii. When she was
a mere girl. barely over sixteen, she
