OF the primaries Of the week, the
most interesting and important were
those of New York and Illinois. In
the former the regulars" of both par
ties won. The Republicans renOmi-
mated Senator Wadsworth, and the
Democrats named Lieut.. Gov. Harry
O. Walker as his opponent. The nli-
nois primaries were interesting, espe-
cially because of the fierce civil war"
within the Republican party there.
The faction led by Mayor Thompson
Of Chicago was bitterly attacked by
the metropolitan press, but it swept
Chicago and Cook county. In the
rest of the state the anti-Thompson
forces piled up such large majorities
that at this writing the result is in
doubt.
The power of the press" is very
poorly exemplifed by the Chicago
newspapers, for they nearly always
lose In fights of this kind.
The congressional investigating
committee dropped the inquiry into
Cox's charges concerning the Republi-
can campaign fund, the Republican
members holding that they had not
been proved and the Democratic men,
bers having little to say. Mr.. Cox,
however, is unwilling to let the matter
rest, and in a recent speech he doubled
the amount he said his opponents were
collecting, stating that the fund was
to be $25,000.000 or $30,O00.O00. Ex-
pert political opinion is that the gov
ernor has done his cause more harm
than good by his EXPOSE" Of campaign
contributions.
Both presidential candidates are
perforce devoting a great deal Of at
tention to the League of Nations.
Senator Harding, in a message to q
women's club, said: 1--WE are desir-
GUS Of preventing war. Let us not
break the heart of the world by any
more decisions. Let us unite Amer
lea behind a new proposal to the other
nations for the prevention of war and
for amicable relationship in world adj
m~Inistration. Let us, in doing this,
preserve our own national conscience
at home, and not check 1t at Geneva"
Out West. where he has been deliv-
ering "peppy" speeches. Governor Cox
promised that II he we're elected the
league would be ratified, money would
no longer be spent on battleships and
the government funds would be used
for such purposes as reclalmlng arid
lands. Mr.. Cox also gave his full ap-
proval to the plan for a world court
as put forth by Elihu Root and the
rest of the advisory commission of
jurists. This court, said Mr.. Cox, can
not in any way be regarded as a sub
stitute for the league. being rather a
part Of the covenant-which is quite
true.

A cross section Of n great old spruce
tree from Alaska tells the story of
tree which executed spin like bal
let-dancer. This cross section shows
n most peculiar structure, which has
caused great deal of speculation
among the various foresters through
out the country, and very interesting
explanation Is advanced In American
Forestry.
II Is known that tree grown mt n

the tree grew, and Its rotation contln-

Into a spiral.

STUDY OF FEET INTERESTING
No Two Pair Of Them Alike, and All
Tell a Story to the observant
Individual.

In the subway and on the surface
conveyance have always found II
interesting to while away the time
spent In transit by making study
of feet. Large feet, small feet, mar
row feet and broad feet have charac-
terlstlcs all their own, and no two
pairs of them are alike. The long,
slender, graceful foot Of the woman
Of fashion, she with the rather lavish
taste, betokened in the extreme heel
and narrow, buckled vamp; the smart.
ly shod foot Of the executive business
woman, with mahogany calf and mill
tary heel; the neat but worn black
leather shoe OF the shop worker, and
the ultra faddish dOwn-at- the-heel,
high-cut kid shoe of the stenogfapher
or factory girl. All Of them tell "A
story. The girl who cares about get
ting ahead, and the boy who is ambl-
ti0us watch out that your feet do not
betray you. Very often have seen
n well-groomed business girl whose
appearance was entirely spoiled by
a muddy or rundown pair of shoes,
and always judge her accordingly,
An employer, hiring an office boy or

COMING CHANGES IN JAPAN
Many Symptoms That Revolution,
Probably Peaceful, 10 Due In Land
Of Chrysanthemum.

In the kingdom Of the Chrysanthe-
mum there are symptoms which cause
observers to pause. All over the coun-
try small groups are forming-not OF
labor men-but Of intellectuals-of
students with fair admixture Of the
middle and even OF the upper classes.
There Is something coming In Japan
great change-no man yet quite
knows when 1t will come or whittier 1t
will gO-sOme call 1t revolution others
restoration. Another symptom Is the
attitude Of the japanese woman. The
japanese woman is thinking and act
ing; did she not start the rice riots
one year ago? Religious movements
have been started within the last 80
years with japanese women--women
of the people-at their head. These
movements have millions of adherents.

LAND OF GORGEOUS COSTUMES
Peasants Of Northern Dalmatla Display
Their Wealth In the FInery
Of Their Garb.

There is one spot Of the modern
world where the men dress as gor-
geously as the women. Among the
Morlacchi, or peasants of northern
Dalmatla, the women are gay enough
to look ut, but their men folk are gayer.
Like peasant garb the world over, the
costumes have remained the same from
year to year, and will doubtless con-
tinue unchanged for years to come.
The women wear short skirts, almost
hidden under aprons embroidered In
bright colors, with loose white waists
and white linen kerchiefs serving as
headgear for the older women, and
little red caps for the girls. Large,
quaint earrings are common, and so
are necklaces and rings to match, and
on her arm the Morlacchi woman is
likely to carry great bag of the same
material as her apron for the trans
portation of miscellaneous packages
and permanent equipment Of knit
ting. The men are more gorgeous, 60
ing about their business In large, dark
blue knee brooches, enclrcled with
many-cOlored sash, and topped by coat
and waistcoat often of bright red and
the buttons OF these garments COM
mand especial attention, for they are
large and shining and chains dangle
from them. A Morlacchi, 1t Is said,
carries his wealth on the front of his
walstcoat, which is often decorated
with knobs and bars of solid silver. II
may even happen that man is rich
enough to have these ornaments In
solid gold, and then truly is he widely
admired. On his head he wears, a red
cap, like the caps worn by the girls;
and an interesting point to the student
of DalmatIan costume is that the cap
gets smaller and smaller as one moves
southwark.
