the clerk handed me also a second vol

Jean Fales. At first | was going to re-
turn it. But looked at one page, which
gave an illustration of a lady in the
Marie Antoinette period, and imme-
diatelv decided to keep it. The lady
wore an elaborate hoop skirt that gave
her at the widest point circumference
of about forty feet. Perched on her
elaborate pompadour was huge hat,
fashioned as a model Of full rugged

DAYS that ladies who rode in carriages
had to keep their heads out of the win
dow or kneel on the floor; and | won

However, by this time | had found

is a stimulating method, productive OF

In the beginnings of dressmaking,

short story. But now we have the
women's magazines, with their dis

Of dressmaker.
Clothing, Miss Fales declares, sprang
not from modesty, but from an aesthetic
desire for ornament. Some daring
young woman, suppose, traded one OF
her dads stone hatchetS for few skins.
She fastened them on her with thorns,
and thus attired strolled down Main
Street. Cliffvile. Undoubtedly she
made a great hit, and the Johnnies came
tumbling out of the huts and fought Tor
the privilege of knocking her on the
head with a club, which was the ap-
proved method of courtship in those
formal days. Later cotton cloth came
in. and men and women would buy
few yards of the stuff and pin it around
them and be dressed for dinner. Final
ly the habit of wearing clothes reached
France, and with that dressmaking be-
gan it's transformation into an art.
Miss Fales is highly optimistic about
the future of dressmaking. But Mr..
Baker is not so hopeful about the short
story.
Although few editors give writer
of fiction free hand" he says, most
of them are prone to prescribe certain
subjects and methods which subscribers
seem to prefer. The contributor is
therefore constantly in danger of being
transformed into a literary hack-more
so after he becomes famous perhaps
than before"
Most of the editors are honest busl-
ness men, but they are indifferent or
hostile to literary art"

that the clothes of the women betrayed

a fine art and remain wholly indifferent
TO artistic standards in short fiction?

skilled workmen laboring on nothing
but love interest, others putting in va

clusively making snappy titles.
At home found my wife rapturously
perusing Max Eastman's Journalism
Versus Art" She said it was great
stuff, so l took it away from her and
sent her to bed.
Mr.. Eastman explained that the
trouble with the magazines was their
desire to please every one little and
offend nobody. The result was medi-
ocrity. The authors had to fall in with
the policy because "the desire to sup
port ones self, and, if possible, ones
family, is a civilized expression Of that
instinct of self-preservation which lies
at the heart of all animal and vegetable
life"

a corrupter of youth" he said. 81 take
artistic young talent and ruin it and
reduce it to mediocrity, and | must say
| do it with great success"
Recalling this incident, read Mr..
Eastman's pessimistic conclusion.
Barring the hope Of some profound
revolution, which may give us all
chance to earn a quiet, useful living in
reasonable number of hours without
frenzy, | see no glories ahead for maya
zine literature. 1t will continue to be
as it is. The big circulation getters,

ARE WOMEN PEOPLE?

pend upon the general and active par
ticipation of the whole governing body
of the American democracy in working
out the problems and applying the prin-
ciples Of government"
at is the conversion of moral rules
INTO political conduct that concerns
government"
"The power and efficiency of party
in working out the problems of govern
ment are reduced by the desertion
of one of its elements of power-the
ability and force of character of a great
part of the people who ought to be en-
gagged in its work"
WHY THE ANTS ARE WRONG
"Of course voting is a fundamental
end essential part of the qualified citl-
zen's duty to the government OF his
country. The person who does not
think it worth while to exercise the
right to vote g.. is strangely ignorant
of the real basis of all the prosperity he
has or hopes for, and of the real duty
that rests upon him as matter OF
elementary morals"
"They [those who do not take part
in politics are willing to depend for the
continuance of everything they value in
life upon their confidence that others
will be more public spirited and unself-
ish and willing to take trouble in per-
forming their public duties as citizens
than they are themselves"
IN. B. These extracts from Mr.. Root
book, The Citizens Part in Govern
ment," are made verbatim, except that
in two or three places the word person
or people is substituted for the word
man or men,
And, keeping the best till the last, we
notice that Mr.. Root in his anti-sll1-
trage tract says that suffrage, II IL
means anything, means entering upon
the field of politics, and politics is 0od-
fled war" But in lecture to young
men he says: Popular government is
organized self-control, organized capac-
itv for the development of the race.

They are surely members Of the Bad Sports

One good thing here is that gasolene is much

profusion everywhere. ! replied that did, but

Since the election every blown-in-the- bottle
