''WILLING TO SUFFER"
Cardinal Gibbons Praises Sacrifice of
Roosevelt Family.

Baltimore, Nd. July 24.-Cardinal
Gibbons yesterday celebrated the
eighty-fourth anniversary of his birth.
The venerable prelate was in the best
of health and looked years younger
than his age. His eyes were bright.
he had a fine color in his cheeks and
he was full of the same optimism and
lively interest in current events which
characterize him. When asked for
statement of national interest he said:
There is one thing that has been
announced which 1 am very happy for.
and that is that the president intends
to stay in Washington during the sum-
mer. 1t seems to me that his deci-
sion is very wise. He is the COM
mander in chief of the army and navy.
He is the master hand in all our con-
Germs. 1 think we all shall be more
comfortable in the realization that he
is where he can keep in the closest
touch with what is occurring.
IT am very happy, too. to note that
he takes a universal view of our prot
lens. 1t seems to me that he has his
vision stretched to every part of the
world.
"Say for me-" he added. that my
deepest sympathy. and 1 am sure the
sympathy of every man goes out to
Colonel Roosevelt and his wife in the
death of their son. They have made
great sacrifice for the nation, one son
killed and two wounded. But I know
of no man more willing to suffer and
sacrifice for our country than Theo-
dore Roosevelt"

Engraved invitations should be sent
as well as to the other guests. Not to
do so. merely because they are includ-
ed in the ceremony or festivities, is
serious discourtesy.
Questions Answered by Alicia Hoyt.
miss Hoyt will answer in this col
umn all questions on matters of ETH
quette addressed to her in care of this
paper. If a personal answer is de-
sired enclose a Scent stampD
MARGUERITE: 1t would hardly
do for you to write a note to the young
lady whom you met at the reception
and like so well. asking her to call
upon you. 1t may be that she is the
case you should make the first call.
You'd better find out about it: and
if it is her place to call first. when
you happen to see her again., you
might say. IT should be very glad If
you would come to see me-" II she
does not call after that, the matter
will have to end there.
MILDRED: An engaged young wo-
man seldom receives invitations from
engaged to; but at times it is all right
for her to go about with others If
her fiance is unable for any reason
to take her to an entertainment which
she would like to attend, or II he is
out of town. it is very considerable of
him to see to it that she is escorted
by one of his friends. If he does not
not care to go. he can hardly object
to her going now and then with Some
one else If he does he can always
take her himself

work. The average pay for women's
work of all kinds was seven shillings
and six pence per week. The war has
put an end to sweated women's work.
Today women in England are better
fed, better dressed, have better houses
and better furniture than ever before.
One reason for this is that the money
comes into their own pockets, and
they know how much they can count
on and how to plan the weekly budget.
Women are not only working in
the munition factories, they are build
ing ships. A Glasgow shipbuilder
said the other day that if the govern

more duty laid at the door of the
United States.
The Americans working among
these people spend very little money
directly on them except the young,
the very old and the crippled. On the
other hand they are taught to work,
which is their salvation, as it gets
their minds off of their troubles. The
women knit. weave the cloth from
which their garments are made, and
are taught how to do homework the
American way. Every one in Topeka

The latest novelty in hats made of
yarn which have been so popular for
the past year, is the spider web. It
is not knitted but the yarn is merely
wound around a frame, making
weblike effect. In the hats of this
kind which I have seen the crowns
have been white and the brim. which
in most cases Is rather wide, has been
of some pretty color. The effect is
striking and the style is a becoming
one. The ready made hats of this
kind are rather expensive, but It
