in many gay and brilliant colors.
At the left of the picture very
handsome suit reveals plated skirt
of silk in which plain satin stripe
and a crepe stripe alternate, the satin
stripe In white and the other in light
green. The jacket. Of white taffeta,
has quilted pattern on the collar and
cuffs, and forming border at the bot
tom, having the stitching done In green
silk thread. Stitching covers the mar
row belt and defines the pocket, prov
ing very original and beautiful en-
bellishment.
Roshanara crepe makes the unusual
dress ut the right OF the picture. 1t
has straight panel at the back but
achieves the effect of loose cut-away
coat at the front, with fiaring sleeves
that are split up the back. Crepe
georgette is used in facings that ex-
tend beyond the edges of the sleeves
and coat drapery. 1t took audacity
to add a sash of the same material as
the dress, to this design, but 1t is here
and vindicates Its presence by finish
ing perfectly smart and comfortable
sports dress.

at the front and a little fiaring at the
sides and back. In this particular
suit a deep cape collar replaces the
small turnover that Is so youthful,
worn with tie Of silk, for the young
er girls. But smaller collar would
not admit an inlay of taffeta such as
finishes this one. The braid on the
sleeves is put on in rows but not in
straight lines and curved inset of
taffeta is placed above it. The sleeves
are especially good.
Dark blue serge makes the chic
suit with bloused coat, at the right
of the picture. Narrow braid in two
rows finishes the collar, the sleeves,
and the skirt of the blouse. Silk cord
and round buttons account for the fas-
tening in the best way and form fin
ish for the close-fitting sleeves. The
collar in this suit Is the style best
liked for girls.
The Colorado statesman., 1919-07-19

It takes considerable discrimination
to choose suits for girls who are not
quite grown up or for those who are
grown, but still In their teens. 1t Is
not half so simple matter as 1t
seems, to express youth by varying the
cut and finish of garments just
enough to take them out OF the young
woman class and place them In the
young girl company. Generally, In
suits, this is accomplished by making
coats vague as to fit and simple as to
Hne and by following current fashions,
rs becomes youth, at distance. The
two suits presented in the picture are
examples of good designing to meet
the needs of the miss from fourteen
to nineteen, and they are recommend
I'd for young women who affect youth
tul styles, providing their figures are
s.rllsh enough to suit these models.
Jersey cloth, serge, duvetyn or any
of the standard suitings will make the
smart suit shown at the left of the
picture successfully, but the firmer
weaves appear to be the best choice
for misses suits. This one Is of beige
coiored serge trimmed with rows of
narrow silk braid to match and insets
of navy blue taffeta. The skirt Is no
ticeably wider than those In vogue for
older women and Is gathered IN at the
waistline. Five short bands of braid
in rows at each side simulate pockets.
The coat In this suit hangs from

LANGUAGE.

A language is natural, Inherent,
spontaneous form of speech, a causa-
ton of the creative power beyond hu-
man comprehension or control. Nat
ural fundamentals can neither be an
nulled, set aside nor superseded by
synthesls, invention or device. That
particular form of natural speech in
which inhere the qualifying elements
Is the one which, despite all obstacles,
eventually will become universally un-
derstood throughout civilization,
whether 1t be English, Spanish,
French, or Choctaw. This extension
will be gradual, resulting from a COM
bination of causes operating auto
matically plus educational prop
aganda.

Industries Of MesopotamIa.

The manufactures of Mesopotamia
are few and primitive. Steam machin-

tory at Bagdad, but the other indus.
tries may properly be classed as han
dicrafts. Milling, tanning, boat build
ing and brickmaking are carried On
for native consumption, and there are
a few manufacturers of luxuries, such
as silk weaving, metal working and
the distilling of the spirit called ar
rack. The silk factories of Bagdad
are famous for the beauty Of their
color and workmanship and the cult
walton of the silkworm was at one
time q fourishing industry.

Satin Floor Cushion.

Big floor and divan cushions are COW
cred with colored satin, in a tone to
match the room furnishings, and are
finished with double ruches of the fab
ric. Two colors are used. one on one
side, the other on the other side of the
cushion, and the double ruche shows
both colors.

GIFTS AND CUFF

4 S ESTIMATED in the gossip Of the repub-
lican cloak rooms Of congress, the gifts
received by President Wilson from the rulers
and people of Europe were worth any sum
between vague "half million" and a more
indefinite several millions" Of dollars.
This immense valuation was placed on
them by the partisans not as measure Of
President Wilson'S popularity in Europe but
as spur to criticism Of him at home,
Now the truth is revealed in the official
list Of gifts and appraisement Of their value
which intrinsically is rather small. 1t discloses
that the republican critics, including Senator
Sherman and Representative Rodenberg, were
as far from right in their guesses on this sub
iect as they usually are in respect to other
statements.
The presents are neither so costly as the
orators declared nor yet 50 cheap as these
gentlemen must feel after having got the

SPENDS NIGHT IN WELL
Missouri Hunter Meets With Strange
Accident, But Finally
Escapes.

Wheaton, Mo.-Plunging into a well
20 feet in depth, and remaining there
for many hours, was the experience Of
John Switzer while hunting foxes near
Powell, six miles south Of this place.
Switzer and several others of CRANKY
came over for an all-night fox chase.
Switzer selected an abandoned field
near an old hut to wait for the chase.
About midnight he heard the dogs COM
ing his way, and as he started to meet
them he stepped into the old well.
Fortunately the well was dry, but
iSwitzer was badly bruised and dazed.
He spent the night in vain attempt
to climb the sides Of his prison.
AS morning dawned, Switzer deter
mined to make his last effort to free
himself Catching with both hands on
the sides of the well, he climbed a few
inches at a time. He worked cautious
", as his strength rapidly became
weaker. Finally Switzer reached the
top and by grabbing a small bush he
pulled himself from the hole of torture.
He was found in dazed condition by
his companions.

Many years ago a physician OF

His quest lasted nearly fifty years.
One afternoon he stopped for the
night In village devastated by the
plague, and while walking about
among the silent, death-marked huts
he heard the wall of tiny baby. He
discovered an entire family lying
dead in the hut, with the exception of
baby girl.

Having no child, the doctor adopted
the little orphan and sent her to
America for an education. He gave
her the best medical training that time

she was graduated from a medical col
lege in New York city, an institution
that ceased to exist when the Cornell
