We are told much Of utilities, but
it's our manners that associate us. In
hours Of business We go to him who
knows, or has, or does this or that
which we want, and we do not let our
taste or feeling stand in the way. But,
this activity over. we return to the
indolent state, and wish for those we
can be at ease with; those who will
go where we go, whose manner do
not offend us, whose social tone chimes
ours. When we reflect upon their per-
suasive and cheerful force; how they
recommend, prepare and draw people
together; how, in all clubs, manners
make the members; how manners
make the fortune of the ambitious
youth: that, for the most part. he
marries manners; when we think what
keys they are, and to what secrets;
what high lessons and inspiring tokens
OF character they convey, and what

GIRLS ALWAYS GETTING HURT
Small Boy Gives Reasons for Object.
Ing to Sister as piaymate-ob-
s~ervation Of Child Life.

In the Woman's Home Companion
Mary Heaton Worse writes a story en-
titled. The Independence Of Sarah"
It is full of wise observation of child
life. In the following extract, Alice.
the mother Of a family. learns why
her small son Robert does not want
his sister Sarah as a playmate.
Her sense Of justice made Alice
feel that Robert should let Sarah into
his outof-door games. She had a the
ory that little boys and girls play the
same games II they are brought up
naturally together. For the most part
Sarah shared this opinion OF her moth
er; she shared it strongly; she
shared 1t vociferously. Robert diff
fered.
He put it this way: Fellows don't
want a girl forever tagging around
and always yelling
II should think responded his
mother. that you want your little sis
ter to play with you
Thus driven into a corner he said:
81 want her to play with me, all
right; but if she's going to play, why
don't she play? She always gets hurt
with the least thing and m home
bawling.'.
ITO this Alice responded: It's her
feelings that get hurt
- don't care what part of her gets
hurt said the downright Robert, if
it gets hurt-and she yells> and the
boys say 10 me; "oh, gee! Here
comes your sister again. RUM

than Skinny Allen. l can u faster

something very new and captivat-
ing in flowers for the corsage has been
launched for the holidays. The cor
sage flower or bouquet Is as often
worn on the muff as on the corsage,
by the way. This new idea Is called
by several names-the vanity flow
err, the beauty" flower, or the van
ity'' corsage. So far roses, dahlias,
peoples and orchids have appeared
that do not differ from those we are
accustomed to see worm On the cor.
sage. But, In the heart Of each flower.
concealed by petals or stamens or the
shape of the flower, is hidden a little
powder box containing powder In a
small cake. A tiny powder puff Is lifted
out by means OF a small ring, and
milady robs the heart of a flower for
the sake OF vanity or beauty.
These flowers are set In millinery
foliage, and in some Of the bouquets
the stems are tied with green satin
ribbon matching the foliage in shade.
One end OF the ribbon is turned up In
a small fiat bag which contains a little
mirror.

this tailored suit will appeal to WON.
en- who appreciate these desirable
qualities. 1t is to the credit of Ameri-
cans that the best tailored suits are
made in this country, and they are
typical of the thoroughbred American
woman. A suit must first be practical
to find favor with her; it must also
be trim in appearance, well cut and
faultlessly tailored. American design
ers and manufacturers have met these
demands of the discriminating, and
the popular taste has been benefited
by their products.
Serge, gaberdine, broadcloth, whip
cord, or any of the strong well-woven
wool goods used for suits are chosen
for the tailor-made. Before they are
tailored they are to be shrunk,
sponged and pressed, so that they will
stand stormy weather. Certain of
the ~cravenetted cloths, as serge or
covert. will repay a little extra outlay
in money by their power to resist wet
weather.
The skirt in the suit shown is only

toward the deep hem. The seams
overlap and are beautifully machine
stitched. 1t is IN easy fit about the
hips and of course must be worn with.
out a belt, as 1t is shaped to the waist
line.
The short coat could hardly be
palmer. The back is seamless, but
the front is cut in four sections and
shaped to a vague following Of the
figure. The belt, extending only part
way around, is a style feature of the
season, and an unusually clever touch
is given the design by the placing Of
the coat pockets at the ends Of the
belt. The band across the top of the
pocket seems merely an extension OF
1t made a little narrower.
One of the new coat sets, a collar
and cuffs made of figured ribbon, are
shown in the picture, with a bow tie
of plain satin ribbon. They are en-
tirely separate from the suit and are
added occasionally by way Of a change
or a bit of furnishing for a special &C.
casion. The skirt is a little longer
than it should be, or the model on
which it is pictured is a little shorter,
as shown. in the picture.

WILLOWS TO SAVE THE CANAL
Roots Will Form Web, Says Inventor,
and Prevent LandsIides at
Panama.

e. Moody Boynton, inventor Of the
monorail system of transportation, is
convinced that willow trees can be
made to stop the Panama canal land
slides. He has written President Will
son what he think; should be done,
and his letter has been forwarded to
the isthmian officials.
Mr.. Boynton proposes that willow
piles be driven close together along
both sides of the canal where slides
occur. These willows will grow. He
says that the roots of each will spread
out as far as 100 feet, all forming to-
gether a web which would hold earth
firmly.

roses made of ribbon are shown and
one other flower for the corsage. At
the right is a large fiat daisy with a
rosebud mounted at its center. This
contains the little powder box, and is
meant for the dressing table.
Large poppies made of velvet, with
a narrow fur border about each petal,
are very rich and handsome. They di.

A chrysanthemum made of narrow
ribbon is a lovely selection to be worn
on the corsage OF a dance frock. Each
petal is a loop of baby ribbon, knotted

War Hurt Philippine Trade.

In the Philippine foreign trade move
ment for the year ending June, 1915,
the adverse effect Of the European war
was the leading factor. Imports
amounting to $44,479,S 1851, declined SILL
100000, or 20 per cent below the 1914
value; and, though exports we're only
nominally less than $51, 100000 total
Of the previous year, greatly increased
production of copra alone saved the
total, and the high price for sugar
was the only marked war benefit in an
export trade that was very generally
reduced.-Commerce reports.
