One of Autumn $ Best Blouses.
Prepared Specially for This Newspaper
 By Pictorial Review

faced to form vast effect. The blousd is slightly gathered at the should. CTS. A yoke effect is featured on tho jumper, also gathered at the shoulders in front and a little above the waist. line. In medium size the blouse rc quires 1A yards 40-inch material fo1 the blouse, with 13s yards 36-incA crepe for the jumper.
 It is well to cut the blouse first following the cutting guide to avoid mistakes. The back is placed on a lengthwise fold of material, while the front, sleeve and cuff are laid on a lengthwise thread of the goods, all to the right of the back.
 Now, take the 36-inch material and fold it so that the jumper sections may be laid upon it as indicated. The front and facing are first pro vided for, being placed on length wise thread of material, then the back is laid on a lengthwise fold The third section of the cutting guide shows how the front and col lar of the underbody are laid on a lengthwise thread of the fabric and the back on the lengthwise fold.
 The blouse is effective with Or without the jumper and by studying the guide the home dressmaker easily can see how to adapt the model to her individual requirements.
 A plain or crushed belt may be slipped through slash in the jumper front and closed at the left side front under a pointed end.

SOUP KITCHENS ! STYLISH DURING
 6. 0. P. RE|CNS
President of Ingerson- Rand Co. Knocks Holes In
 Tariff Argument.

W. L. Saunders, President of tho Ingersoll-Rand Co.,. has sent the fol- lowing letter to Geo. w. Perkins. Here are some more "autumn leaves" They are rather seasonabie just now, and for my part l like to see them around.
 You accuse me of writing notes that ignore the facts" but if you will take the trouble to read my letters you will see that they are based upon facts. which are either correct or in correct. You do not deny that they are correct. nor do you refer to u alleged facts in any part of your lets ter.
 Instead of confining yourself to the facts you say that you have not been money-making as much of late as I have been. I will swap my in- come for the last four years for yours. or for one quarter of yours.
 "You refer to the soup kitchens of several years ago and your work as a member of the Mayors Committee, but you do not say anything about the soup kitchens of years past. re- member them as far back as 1876, under Grant and Hayes. I remember them under Ben Harrison, and I re- member. with pain, the worst one of all. under Roosevelt in 1907. Mind vou. these cases were all under Repub- lican Presidents and under Republi- can high tariffs. The great panic of 1907 not only resulted in soup kit chens but it extended even to Wall street. It was a rich mans as well as poor mans panic and it lasted until this Democratic Administration got we'll under way.
 You know very well that the tar if has had little or nothing to do with panics; that the depression during 1913 and the early part of 1914 was a world wide one. It existed in Ger many, with a protective tariff; In France with a higher one; in Eng land, with no tariff; and in Brazil where the tariff is highest of all. It was also found in Canada with an in- creased tariff.
 "If your soup kitchen period was due to the tariff you will admit that importations from foreign countries would have been increased. Such is not the case. AS a matter of fact there has been little or no increase in our manufactured imports. the slight in- crease being easily accounted for by increased prosperity and prices.
 Your refer to the high cost of food-a situation which is world wide and which is brought about, as you well know, by the fact that the war has diverted labor from productive pursuits to destructive ones.
 You say that when the war is over we will have industrial depression. 1 do not believe it. but my opinion and even yours, should hardly count against MT. Farrel. President of the Steel Corporation. and MT. Vanderlip, President of the National City Bank. for both in recent addresses expressed their belief that this country should continue after the war"

A MOTHERS HEART

M E. writes: "I am a girl of IS with many admirers. One in partic- ular I really care for. Mother does not like him. She has another in view on whom she has set her mind for me. I do care for him. Kindly give me your advice what to do."
 No doubt your sweetheart is all that is noble, good and true, but your mothers wishes should have great weight with you. A mothers heart is always true. She has your best inter est in mind. Try hard to win her over to liking your admirer. Persistency on your part will win out at last if the young man of your choice has a good reputation, good character, truly loves you and proves to her his ability to care for you and make you a desirable husband.

MY TOWN.

I know my town, and I love my town, And I want to help it be As great a town to every one As it seems to be to me! I praise my town and cheer my town, And I try to spread its fame; And I know what splendid thing
 'twould be
 If you would do the same! I trust my town and I boost my town. And I want to do my part To make it a town that all may praise From the depths of every heart! I like my town and I sing my town And I want my town to grow; If I knocked my town or blocked my
 town, That wouldn't be nice, you know! I think my town is the very best town In all the world-to me. Or if it's not. I want to get out And try to make it be! I talk my town and preach my town As I think a fellow should Who has more at stake than to win
 or make
 For the love of the common good? I bet on my town, and I back on my
 town,
 And I think it fine to feel When you know your town and you
 love your town - That it's part of your honest zeal! I'm proud of my town, I love my
 town,
 And I want to help it rise And that's the way to help g. town Not curse it and despite!

THE INTERESTED
 PARTIES MUST DECIDE

Anxious sister asks: twill you please advise in regard to the follow ing: My brother is a Jewish young man and the young lady he is to mar ry is Catholic. His mother objects to a priest, her mother objects to a judge Please advise how they should be united, whether by priest or rabbi or by judge only"
 This is one of the subjects which I deem wisest and best not to advise on. It is a matter of such vital impor- tance to the interested parties that they and they only should decide it, so that both may feel satisfied during all of their after life together.

When quite dry, lay them lightly in jar with sugar be- tween the layers. These peaches are quite transparent and fairly melt in the mouth.
 All frtIits may still be preserved in heavy syrup in precisely this way.

FLOORED BY LOVE
 FEAST, HAWKINS
 DESERTS HUGHES
Progressive Gives Demo crats $250 After Leaving
 Union League Club.

The Democratic campaign fund is s25O richer today, as a result of the Taft-Roosevelt Hove feast" at the Un- ion League club last Thursday night. And President Wilson has gained on ardent supporter thereby.
 C. A, Hawkins of San Francisco, who happened to be in New York, re- ceived an invitation to attend the Hughes reception. He is a well known Progressive in California, and had not yet made up his mind how he would vote. It occurred to him that that reception might give him a 'line on things" So he went.
 MT. Hawkins walked into the head quarters of the Democratic National Committee yesterday and after leav- ing check for s250 on Chairman McCormick's desk. declared that he is going to vote for the reelection of President Wilson.
 "I cannot follow the "oId guard" who nominated Hughes at Chicago" said he. Hughes may be, and prob ably is, honest but I cannot tolerate his gang"
 "As for the issues, it is much easier to criticise another mans actions af- terward, than to act wisely at the time of emergency. Yet fail to see how MT. Wilson with wisdom could have acted differently, particularly in the light of the facts known at the time. I don't like the Republican abuse of Wilson, 1t is too obviously for the pur- pose of getting into office. and, when esorted to generally. indicates the party using it has a weak position which cannot be supported by logic. If MT. Hughes does not like what has been done, let him say what he would have done, and why, if he does not like ! the laws the Democrats, have passed, let him say which ones he would re- peal, and why Why do they not pro- pose some constructive program. for | the voters to weigh against the Demo- cratic program? I have expected and hoped such would be the case. "Mr. Hughes failure to state his position upon the great questions of | national policy, while devoting him. self to petty scolding is disappointing. | Abuse is not argument.
 "Mr. Hughes is no doubt a good lawyer, but there Is some reason for fear that he may exaggerate the im- portance of a technicality. Every business man knows that if he tried transact business with his lawyer al- ways at his elbow he would never ac- complish very much. MT. Wilson has had four years training for the job, is familiar with many things bearing upon our situation not known to Mir. Hughes, and I cannot see sufficient reason for Changing horses in the middle of the stream"
