Hiah Cost. Of courtina.

All the world may love lover, but
the trainers of the new war tax bill
adopted a roundabout way of showing
their affection, asserts T. F. Logan in
Leslie's. The congressional measure
to raise, additional revenue makes
a particularly affectionate. assault
lon the bankroll of the young man
who wishes to demonstrate his
devotion to a maid. If the object. of
the youths passion lives reasonably
near him, he may escape the new
tax on kilograms and telephone mes
sages that cost less than 10 cents.
Every love letter he writes will cost
him an additional penny, however,
even if he incloses only a single burn
ing poem. If a trip to the theater
is planned, committing lovers who live
more than 80 miles from the play
house must give financial assistance
to the war on the Hohenzollerns. Ac-
tual admission to the theater demands
an additional ten per cent on the cost
Of the tickets. Naturally, the dear
girl will wish to. make herself par
ticularly alluring to her ardent swain.
To do so, she must pay two per cent
tax on the perfume essence, toilet wa
ter lip rouge or face powder that to
her seems the most effective device.

Next to the natural shape of the fox
pelt, with head, tail and legs, square
capes and straight, wide scarfs of
medium length, are the best-liked
styles in fur neck-pieces. This is only
a general and rather vague description
of the great variety of fashionable
neck-pieces that smart women find in
dispensable in all climates. They are
as much liked to throw about the
shoulders at indoor affairs, after coats
have been taken off, as for outdoor
wear
One of the cleverest new scarfs is
made of Hudson seal, and is about
yard and half long and in the neigh
borhood of fifteen inches wide. AT
each end of the scarf there is small
pocket, hardly discernable, but quite
equal to keeping the hands warm.
Along the edge Of the scarf, on one
side, there is q band of martin far,
four inches wide. 1t is only half as
long as the scarf and therefore does
not reach to the ends on either side.
1t protects the back of the neck and
proves a becoming addition to this nov
ell neck k-piece.
Another novelty in the same combi-
nation is a short sleeveless mantle of
sealskin with wide shawl collar OF
martin. The mantle is merely a square
cape at the back and front, Joined at
the shoulders.

NoMENAs GREAT ORGANIZERS
Matrohss Conduct Large National
!. Gatherings With a. Zest and Order,
and Not Man Is to Be Seen.


In the last 20 or % years particu-
larly the women of. this country have
become past masters in, developing
nationwide organizations. The groups
which, they. have formed sometimes
number; as many as million women.
They take great delight in the perfec-
ton of their machinery: Much of the
social awakening among women, the
desire to improve their surroundings,
domes from the stimulus and the edu-
cation they get from their organiza-
tions.
But these organizations, it should be
noted, are voluntary, writes Ida NJ.
'Tarbell in Harper's Magazine. They
are directed to some purpose (which
appeals particularly to the group.
Each stands on its own feet-that is,
they are not cooperative organiza-
tions; and again, they have nothing to
withs men. Go to one of their
national gatherings. You will see
meetings conducted with a zest, an Or
der, directness which throws in the
shade almost any mems convention l
ever saw, and not man to be seen

People are fieeling South in winter
like the birds. Railroads have annihi-
lated distance SO that the journey be-
tween lands of snow and lands of sun
Is measured by few hours. The Won
der is that anyone who can possibly
help it ~endures the sting Of Northern
winters for months and months, espe-
cially as the genial South has many al
lurements besides its climate. Among
them are the smart clothes that the
fair Southern tourist INDUCES in.
This business of furnishing apparel
for winter tourists wear has become
an important factor in establishing
fashions and all womanhood is inter-
sested in the parade of styles at Palm
Beach, Coronado and other centers
where people of wealth assemble: The
best things that money can buy are
seen in these places and they tone up
the dreas of women all oyer the land.
For instance, the hat and bag to
match shown in the picture above is
one of many beautiful matched sets
made in anticipation of the demand
for smart and novel dress accessories
which comes into a rush just about

How a Woman Got a Pumpkin.

She is dainty little madam, relates
the Indianapolis News, and does not
look as if she could lift more than
ten or fifteen pounds. When she ac-
companied her husband to the country
recently and saw a field dotted. with
pumpkins she said: -
sLet's stop here and buy pumpkin
for pies"
Pumpkins seemed to be drug with
the farmer, and he told the little
madam:
''If you climb that fence" pointing
TO the field, "you can have the biggest
pumpkin you can carry
"Pll accept that OFFER" she replied
with alacrity, with visions of Thanks
giving pies galore.
Ten minutes later she returned with
pumpkin that weighed 35 pounds and
put it down triumphantly in front of
the farmer.

WILSON AGAINST
 CHAMBERLAIN ACT
Writes Senator Letter in Which He Expressed the View That the Bill Is Unconstitutional-O
 Court Martials.

Washington, April 22.-President Wilson this morning came out in op- position to the Chamberlain bill, which would try violations of the se- dition laws by court martials. and in a letter to Senator Chamberlain, the President declares his belief that the measure would be unconstitutional.
 If enacted, the President declared in his letter, the bill would place the United States on level with it's enc mics. He said the measure is opposed to the spirit and purpose of the es- pionage laws.
 The President also indicated that he would not compromise with his op- ponents wko are advocating the amendment to the Overman bill, which proposes broad general grant of power to reorganize the government departments.
 The enactment of the Chamberlain bill has been urged before the Senate Military Committee to stamp out German propaganda in this country.
 Vigorous opposition to it's passage has developed, and Senator Borah ap- pealed for the support of the Senate leaders in his efforts to defeat it.
