LUMINOUS GOWNS IN LONDON
Fabric That Does Not Merely Shine, But Burns With White Light,
 Is Latest

Luminous dresses, iridescent hats and gloW-wOrm gauge stockings have been aeroed to London from Paris and are creating a sensation in ultra smart society.
 Metallic effects in shot silks and changeable tissues have led to this new craze and not a little impetus has been given by the scientists who have been exchanging data with the fabric weavers and the dressmakers, which data goes to prove that "sweet- ness and light" are bound up with bright clear colors, that happiness and the genius of youth unfold in radiant, gold-fiecked atmosphere.
 A dress worn at theater supper dur Ing Grand National Race week was of apricot charmeuse dusted with pale gold threads. In daylight this dress seemed to be merely a particularly happy blend of yellow and pink. But with candlelight the silk glowed and pulsated with living light which seemed to radiate from It. This effect Is produced by a phosphorescent quality imparted to metallic threads woven into the silk.
 Luminous flowers and ribbon on gauge hats are likely to be even more popular than the radiant silk and are much less expensive. For evening wear they are distinctly becoming and seem to add mystery and charm to the face. Pale crushed silk roses or tiny wreaths of tight buds emit a soft rosy glow in the half light. The stock ings are woven of fine rainbow cOlOred silk and are worn with gold tissue sandals. The silk does not merely shine, 1t burns with white light

 MlLLIONAIRES WHO
 GREW OUT OF WAR
New Britain Pastor Denounces Proh- teers Who Gouged on Americas
 Young Manhood.

New Britain, June 3.-"My message to you soldiers of the late war IS that you be true Americans, which, to my way of viewing 1t, means to be as ready in times of peace to hght the enemies within our country, as you were in times of war to fight the enemies without, because one enemy within is more dangerous than all our other enemies" said Rev. John L. Davis. pastor of Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, in an address on "The Spells of War Untarnlshed by Peace" at patriotic exercises Sunday morning at the church. He compared the rusting of the old soldiers swords after years of idleneSS, because ot lack of attention, to the defeat Ot the pr1n- ciples of democracy by people ot the United States, which condition, he from the World War. ou were told you were fighting for democracy, to make the world safe for democ- racy," he said, "and when you came back to your homeland, you found that while death lurked on all sides of you on Flanders fields, million aires were being turned out at home in greater numbers and faster than at any other time in this country $ history. That is the democracy you got"
 "When I pass veteran of the war and see the little brown button on his coat" said MT. Davis, "l feel like re- moving my hat to him, for he IS one of the great number of American men who gave us our freedom, on land and on sea, helped libcratc an op- pressed country, and in more recent years fought for the principle ot JUS tice and right"
 Referring to the topic of his ad- dress, MT. Davis mentioned the rust of the old soldiers sword when 1t IS not properly looked after, and the anger 1t causes the man who once kept it clean and shining. So 1t IS with the democracy for which the World War was fought, he sad. "Where is the democracy he asked. "When you returned you found that millionaires had been turned out at home while you were fighting, taster than ever before in the history Ot the country. While you were over there on Flanders field, with the dead and wounded heaped up all aboot you, the newspapers at home reported that other men were on strike because they wanted few cents an hour in crease in pay. 1 heard of one soldier who read the strike news while he was in the trenches, and here IS what he said This is hell of time to strike and he was right. He might have added that it was no time to be making money and he would have been right"

strikes the note of the days harmony or discord. A weIl-planned meal does away with the furry of not knowing just what to serve. However simple or elaborate the meal, it is the open ing of new day and no pains should be spared to start everybody out right
 Delicate, aged persons or semf-in- valids and, often, people in apparent good health suffer from lack of ap- petite in the morning. For such, very light meal should be served: hot milk or coffee, a piece of toast with a cup of chocolate or cocoa and pulled bread or a cracker will be sufficient, or even a glass of hot matted milk with zwieback and marmalade will be quite enough refreshment for those needing a light breakfast. For those who eat very sparingly it is much better to serve them often-fve meals a day, if light food, will be much better than three heavier meals.
 Whatever beverage is served should be served hot as such drinks are stimulating and are often very bene- f1cial.
 The light breakfast of cereal, with top milk or cream, following a fruit, then a substantial dish like eggs, fish or bacon with toast, cakes, gems and a little jam or marmalade with a cooky or doughnut, and a cup of hot coffee will be found a rather sub- stantial and sustaining meal.
 At a hearty breakfast meat and potatoes are served; in the country where the day begins early and the workers are out in the open, a heavier meal is required, and chops, liver, bacon, pork and beans, kidneys, baked and fried potatoes, scrapple or plain fried mush, also two kinds of warm bread, or hot griddle cakes, find a wei come. Gardeners, sportSmen and campers will find this kind of meal popular.

FOES OF PROHIBITION.

Mayor Moore, of Philadelphia, said at a dinner.
 Of course, if the government will spend enough money, it can enforce pro- hibition That is bound to be a hard job, though, Some of our most law abiding citizens refuse to take the pro- hibition law seriously. They are like the chap whose cellar was searched by prohibition enforce ment officer the other day.
 "There are hundreds and hundreds of empty whisIey bottles in your cellar, the officer said. How did they get there, friend?
 "'Blest if I know! And the owner of the cellar gave hearty laugh. 'Blest if l know! 1 never bought an empty whisLley bottle in my life" - Detroit Free Press.

Silk Stockings

A satisfactory mending silk for silk stockings is floselle, with the dull finished embroidery floss, which is made up of twelve slightly twisted strands. It is softer than fine sewing silk, much stronger, and goes a long way, while in black the color is much better than that of the ordinary mend ing silk. For ordinary holes a doubled strand is about right. It Is also use full for hand sewing, as 1t sinks well into the fabric.

Inqenious and Pretty.

It was a new voile waist, and there was a stain on one side of the front which looked like iron rust, but on which no application seemed to have any effect. It's owner took small pieces of net, cut two oval medallions, darned simple design on each, pasted one exactly over the stain and the other opposite. button-holed the edge all around and cut the material from underneath It looked as If ''done on purpose" and the waist was really prettier for the decoration.

FIGHT INSURANCE BILL.

Washington, June 3.-Every infu- ence that private insurance companies can command is drawn into a fight against the Fitzgerald Jones bill, which provides for compulsory work mems compensation insurance. While this bill would only apply to the Dis trict of Columbia, it's moral effect would be widespread and would be a serious blow to the business of pro- fiteering in the injuries and deaths of workers throughout the country

UNTERMEYER TO ASK CONGRESS TO
 PROBE BUILDING

New York, June 3.-Congrcss will be asked to amend the federal laws to compel imposition of prison sen tences on convicted members ot building materials combinations, Samuel Untermcycr announced yes terday before the Lockwood legisla- tive committee, Of which he IS ch1et counsel The committees recommen- dations for remedial state legislation also would be pressed, he said.
 Il have been unable to discover a single article that enters into bulld-
 ing construction" MT, Cntermcyer sad, that Is not the subject O1 com bination, and have reason 10 believe that this is true of at least one-halt of all the vast industries of the tnited States outside of the building trades. The activities of those that are unlawful should receive the same kind ot attention that the secret service gives to countertcltcrs or that the expert safc-craCkcrs rcCclFc at the hands Ot the police.
 A number of the combinations that have been exposed by the committee, ne said, representing in all prob ably 500 or more corporations and individuals manufacturers, JObberS, contractors and dealers connected with the building trades have dis banded their organization, and have, III my judgment, in good faith, re- sumed competition as the law re quires Many others have pretcnded to do SO, but are not acting in good faith, while still others, and among them some of the most powerful i'll the land, covering the entire country and that are amenablc only to federal jurisdiction, are dchantly continuing their illegal operations under various prcteNts, most of which are friVol- Ous."
 It is no longer question:" he add ed, of which industries are controlled through combinations or associations but which are not so controlled and where they are to be found.
 Worst Breeding Nest.
 "The worst breeding nest for the local combinations that are operating in violation of law, is the Building
 Trades Employers Association, to which operation counsel proposes to give close study with view to de termining whether there are sufficient grounds for criminal prosecutions against the responsible officials of that association. What pity that this cancer upon the building trade can not be treated like an ordinary gambling den, or liquor still, and be raidcd and broken up by the police. May 1 at this point be permitted d personal word by way of d note of warning. 1 am no alarmst and have unboundcd confidence in the sound- ness of our institutions, but my great fear is that the country either does not sufficiently realize or has become callous to the perils that turk in the social unrest that is being accentuatcd by the greed and piracy of these com binations that infest the land from end to end.

gardens, the putting up and canning
OF vegetables. And they preface all
OF their advice and encouragement by
telling their patrons first Of all to
grow sweet clover as the necessary
plant food for soils. and the ready
feed for livestock, which that truly
wonderful plant produces.
North Dakota is ready for an agri-
cultural change. Her lands demand
it, n her farmers want it. Agri-
cultural history proves that every
state has passed through the mme
period of agricultural development
through which North Dakota is
evolving. With her progressive citi-
zenship, and with the direct sympa-
thy of the banking interests project
ed in terms of agricultural problems,
with land values untnflated, and with
q type Of soil second to none North
Dakota has a wonderful opportunity
of embarking upon and developing a
real program of agricultural prog
ress.
That progress, however. must be
measured in terms of individual pros
perity and .contentment. Given a dis
contented rural citizenship. all agri-
cultural troubles and strife are pos
sible. Provide your farmers with a
PROSPEROUS agriculture, and all rural
troubles vanish.
The sweet clover project has COM
mended itself to the bankers Of the
state because it is the one means at
the present tim of doing away with
the hazards Of grain farming, and OF
substituting in their stead a safe and
sane agriculture. 1T should always
be remembered that upon such a safe
and sane agriculture depends notsop,y
the safety and sanity Of the towns
and c~itiess but their prosperity and
business as well: For that reason
the development Of sweet clover over
the state should not only appeal to
those who have a direct contact With
the farmer. but also to those whoFin-
directly deal: with the farmer, and
whose business depends upon wheth-
er or o the farmer is prosperous.

SWEET |lWIlIl l|l'''l| ! CLOVER.
AND AM llD|]PROSPERlTY


s. q. Rubinow. who is sales mana
ner for the Red River Valley Sweet
Glover Growers Exchange, recently
vrote Al article on Sweet Glover and
Prosperity, for the North Dakota
Banker. The article is Of SO much
interest and value that 1t is reprint
ed here:
AS a real slogan, the expression
Sweet Clover and Prosperity" hon
estly conveys a picture Of what the
future agriculture OF North Dakota
will represent. The state is just
passing through a period Of aEricui-
tural REIMBURSEMENT, through which
many other states have also passed,
and the final evolution will represent
4 system of farming which will be
more profitable and satisfactory.
Il IL q matter OF authentic record
that no single system of farming. has
ever been known to survive. In the
north and northwest continuous grain
cropping has brought statewide dis
aster; in the south continuous cotton
and tobacco growing have plunged
that section of the country into a
now, for diversification. and for the
growing of leguminous crops, which
can be turned under, and in this way
replenish the fertility exacted by the
grain crops and the closely cultivated
crops has spread all over the United
States and is gaining in strength
daily.
The usage Of sweet clover in North
Dakota is symbolical of future pros
pertty. There isn't a single farmer in
the state who can afford not to grow
it; and there isn't a single banker in
the state who can afford not to adj
wise his farmer patrons to grow 1t.
1t il Just a short time. ago that Wis
conadn was in the same stage of agri-
cultural evolution through which
North Dakota is now passing. Wis
consn gave up continuous wheat
growing, turned to the use Of legumes,
developed the livestock idea. partic-
