AMERICAN DYES.

DR.. E. E. Pratt, chief of the Bu-
reau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce, is much interested in the dye
situation in this country, situation
as everybody knows, caused because
we cannot get dyes from Germany.
So far American ingenuity and re-
sourcefulncss, which we have been
taught to think can master every
problem, have not been able to pro-
duce satisfactory dyes. They fade,
even when they do originally give the
right colors.
Dr. Pratt, who has studied the dye
situation thoroughly, now makes the
suggestion that women wear dark
colors, if they arc looking for fast
colors and reliable ones. So the eco
nomical woman will do we'll to wear
frocks and coats OF black. navy blue
and dark brown this winter. Per-
haps by spring the American dye sit
uation will have been satisfactorily
handled.
An instructor at the University of
Wisconsin has conc out with the
suggestion that OF all days in the
week Monday is the worst for wash

She argues that there should be

a day on which clothes can be gath
cred and sorted and freed from
stains. And as Sunday, with most of
us, is a day for recreation or rest,
Monday is an awkward wash day.
Moreover, this Wisconsin instructor
believes that clothes should be soak
cd in the good old-faShioncd way
and everybody knows that nobody
wants to put clothes to soak on Sun
day night.

September 22-Anne, Of Austria.

One Of the queens who has figured
most prominently in the writings of
historical novelists. Anne of Austria,
was born 314 years ago today. She
was the daughter Of Philip III. C:
Spain. and at the age of II was mar
ried to Louis XIV. of France, by
whom she was neglected in the most
outspoken manner.
What made it especially hard for
the Queen was that Cardinal Richie
lieu became her decided enemy ana
used his great influence with the
King to ALLEVIATE his affections from
her. But the King died in 1913. when
she was ~. leaving her regent for
the young prince who was later Louis
XIV. with the concurrence of a coun-
Gil of five. Of whom the newly-risen
Mazarin was the president.
Queen Anne now came to her own
and before long she and Mazarin had
the reins of the government in their
own hands. Cardinal though he was.
Mazarin was known to be beloved by
the Queen and there was even talk
of a secret marriage between the
two At any rate, their reign was as
good as any that France had known
for some time. and in the civil war
of the Fronde in 164s Anne and
Mazarin were triumphant.
Anne, of Austria. was reputed TO
be a beautiful and clever woman and
she is one of the few Queens OF
France who did not sink under the
neglect that was so frequently their
lot; but found for herself a promi-
nent place in the intriguing court in
which she lived.

The trial of the directors Of the

railroad has brought to light q letter
which is most embarrassing to the adj
ministration. This letter, written by
William G. McAdoo to President Mel
len Of that road, June IA, 1907, en-
Enthusiastically commends Mr. Mellen's
efforts to buy the Boston and Maine
railroad, intimates that Louis D. Bran
deis, who was then fighting the ANAL
gamation Of these roads, is "a phari-
see," commends Governor Hughes We
to the two-cent railroad fare bill.
and concludes with the words, Il con-
gratulate you on the progress you are
making toward the acquisition Of the
Boston and Maine and hope that your
plans may be realized" Everyone in
Washington is wondering what Mr..
McAdoo's distinguished father-in-law
will say to his secretary of the treas
ury when the former concludes his
honeymoon and has time once more to
attend to affairs of state and politics.
Certain it is that Mr.. Wilson cannot
approve Mr.. McAdoo's having so reck-
lessly expressed his real views in writ
ing, to have them thus exposed when
he is prominent factor in the Wilson
administration.

able to go, it will require three and a
half years for this force to complete
the examination of the transcripts
that will be sent to the agents for ex-
animation in the present fiscal year"
That is quoted from Secretary Nc
Adoo's annual report, and is one Of
his arguments for an increase in his
force of income tax employees-addi-
tional provisions for feeding more
deserving democrats" at the public
crib.
According to that statement each
field officer has 1850 income tax re
turns to examine, which, at his pres
ent rate of examination will require
allowing 300 working days to a year
1850 days to complete. In other words
the force is examining returns at the
rate of one return per man, per day,
which is a fair sample of democratic
efficiency And of this type Of en-
ployees, hundreds were appointed
temporarily by the Treasury Depart
ment, and then blanketed into the
United States Civil Service by exc
cutive order Of President Woodrow
Wilson, formerly vice president Of the
National Civil Service Reform League
who, on being elected President of the
United States, withdrew from the
league, saying in a letter to its chair
man: 81 beg you to believe that my
interest in and my sympathy with
the work of the Civil Servece Reform
League has not been and cannot be

Congressman Park, democrat, of
Georgia, recently addressed the House
of Representatives in condemnation
Of the changes the democratic admin
istration has made in the rural SER
vice. He said: "There is great dis
satisfaction because of this delayed
delivery Of the mails" and again: "of
all the changes made under any ad-
ministration in any department Of the
government, this change in the rural
route service has created more dis
content, dissatisfaction and antagOn-
ism" When criticisms such as this
were voiced by republicans from north
ern states; the answer Of the demo-
cratic press was that il was mere
partisan carping. This expression
from a part Of the country that has
been especially favored by the Post
Office department, and by a member
of the party in power, ought to be
accepted as conclusive evidence Of the
bad management under which cur
postal service has fallen.
