ROYAL RAIMENT FROM
AMERICAN SPECIFICATIONS

Royal wardrobes from American
dress patterns2 Ridiculous.
Nevertheless It Is fact that for
years the nobility of England, France,
Germany and other European powers
have been fashfoning the garments OF
their women folks from ldentically the
same tissue paper pattern that Is on
sale In practically every nook and cor
ner of the United States.
The funny part Of 1t is that, while
the world recognizes that Paris orig
mates style. few people realize that
the distribution Of style information
and the adaptation Of Paris creations
to the worlds millions Of well-dressed
women are entirely In the hands OF
Americans.
There is one sixteen story building
in New York city entirely devoted to
the business of making dress patterns
and publishing magazines which 60 to
the four corners of the earth regularly
with style information gathered from
the fashion centers of the world, par
ticularly Paris. These magazines not
only are read in the United States to
the extent of 100000 month. but
the counterpart of one Of them goes
regularly to England. France, Germa-
nv. Italy and the Spanish speaking
countries in editions especially prepar-
er In those languages.
Furthermore. the paper patterns,
which reproduce the fashions illustrat-
ed and explained in this magazine. also
20 to all of these countries, where they
outsell all similar magazines and pat
terms indigenous to those lands.
And the best part Of 1t all Is that the
woman who lives ip Paris, Tex, is en-
abled to buy the very latest pattern
from the house of Butterlck at the
same time that the woman Of Paris.
France. is seeking the same pattern In
the Avenue de I Opera shop of the
concern. An interesting exhibit at the
New York plant Is collection of orig
inal letters from titled ladies' Of Eu-
rope ordering Butterlck patterns or the
foreign editions of The Delineator.
There are so many of these letters from
French. English. German, Austrian
Russian and Scandinavian noblewomen
that the eleven vellum bound volumes
in which they are kept are known as
"Butterick's Peerage." One letter is
from the British Royal household, adj
vising that the present Prince Of Wales
as a child was dressed by Buttericb
patterns. This supremacy Of United
States institution in fashion dlstribu
ton is certainly gratifying to every rec
blooded American who believes iI

Eesitatiug Mexico
From the Independent

From the Independent
President Carranza's evident
desire to keep Mexico neutral in
the war between Germany and
the United States may be over
borne by the influence of the war
party if reports from Mexican
sources are to be trusted. Sever
al of the leading Constitutionalist
generals are known to be pro-
German in sympathy and are also
very much tempted by the offer
of Texas, Arizona and New Mex
leo, as well as the possibility Of
expansion to the south at the ex-
pense of British Honduras and
perhaps of Guatemala. The ma
tions Of Central America are, in
varying degrees, in sympathy
with the United States or under
American diplomatic influence,
and it is probable that in the
event of trouble with Mexico we
can count on allies to the south.
German residents of Guatemala
and other Central American re-
publics are now concentrating in

AFTER EIGHT YEARS
McCOnnsllsburg Testimony Remains
Unshakeu

Time Is the best test Of truth.
Here is a McConnellsburg story
that has stood the test OF time.
1t is a story with a point which
will come straight home to many
of as.
Miss Susan Pelghtel, McCon-
nellsburg, says: 81 was in poor
health for some time and l be-
lleved that weak kidneys caused
the trouble. l suffered greatly
from severe pains IN my back,
which often darted into my head.
I often became dizzy and had
chills. I was losing strength
daily and felt poorly in every way.
Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at
Trout's Drug Store, brought me
quick relief" Statement given
November 5, 1907
Over six years later, Miss
Pelghtel said: "Whenever / need
backache or kidney medicine, !
use Doan's Kidney Pills. They
relieve me-"

desire for growth and Improvement
without sacrificing Americas great
need for permanent homes.
For the lack Of homes Is one Of
Americas fundamental weaknesses.
II goes hand In hand with our lack Of
family pride, and this breeds inevita-
bly, a lack of civic pride.
Community pride follows the love of
home as surely as fine growth follows
rich planting. And community pride
dies where there Is no community Of
interests.
The great complaint against the
average suburban town is that 1t lacks
interest In itself. You can't get the
merchants and the townspeople to CO.

And the stores are poor and the sub
urban population Is shifting and unre-
liable.

Back Home Again.

Seven Charles Town colored men who
left here less than a month ago to work
in a coal mine near BIueiield, w. Va. are
back home again. Only one man OF the
party going there remained at his post.
On their arrival at the mine the men were
taken down the shaft in lift. Reaching
the bottom OF the shaft, they were es-
corted what seemed to them an endless
distance through corridors, Railways and
lanes, and subterranean passages 10 the
workings" where they were setto work.
With a mountain above them, darkness
all around and the open air miles away,
the men soon became uncomfortable.
One of them asked the boss TO take him
I'D TO the surface, which was done. say,
Boss" said the Charles Towner when
they arrived in the open air, cant you
gimme a job up here?" The boss as
sured him that there was no coal TO nine
on the surface "See here, Boss" The
man continued "if anything happens to
me down dare-a cave-in or an explo-
sion. my wife would nebber git my body.
Millions OF tons of slate, earth and rock
would cover us over. Our bodies would
not be worth the labor to find us. When
has my funeral, wants 10 be present
at the ceremony" This argument con-
WINGED all his companions except one.
Hence all but one are back in the old
town where a man may have the inesti-
mable privilege: That OF being present
at his own funeral.-CharieS Town Ad-

How Soap Works.

Why does soap take out the dirt? The
answer to this question has been argued
many times by chemists, and as cleanli-
ness is necessary and enormous guam
titles Of soap have TO be used it is well
that we should know how soap does its
work.
II is fat or oil that especially makes
things dirty. II only we can melt or get
rid OF the oil on hands or clothes we soon
can make them clean, and the real use oil
soap is that it diSpoSes OF oil. II does
this in at least two ways. Most soaps
have in them a great deal OF alkali. The
alkali dissolves the oil.
But soap takes the dirt from things in
another way, as we know when we use
soaps that have no alkali in them at all.
1t has The power of breaking up oil into a
number of tiny little drops. with all the
dirt that the oil has collected.
A collection Of tiny drops OF oil held in
some other fluid is called an emulsion,
Water alone will not form an emulsion
of any oil, because oil and water will moi
mix. That is the reason why we cannot
get clean with water alone. But when
water has soap dissolved in il it is able
to make an emulsion of the oil on any
thing we are washing and so make il
clean.
