NEWS FROM SPIRIT WORLD
Chaloner Says They Are Now Voting
for President.


for President.
John Armstrong Chaloner, Of Rich
mond, Va, and New York, announces
some hot news from the spirit world.
"The spirits are voting for presi-
dent" he says. They're having a
deuce of time, too, because the wo-
man spirits demand equal rights. Can
you beat that?"
Chaloner, who coined the phrase,
who's Looney Now" came to New
York to campaign for reform in the lu-
macy laws. He spent four years in a
New York asylum. The courts in yir-
ginia, where he later went to live, judg-
ed him sane. New York courts revers-
ed their earlier decision and Chaloner
was given custody of S1,000,000.
Chaloner has a bachelor apartment in
New York.
Women, like flowers, are lovely, but
very distracting to one like myself who
has work to do in the world" he says.
The apartment was bathed in green
light.
Its restful-and it makes me feel
devilish," says Chaloner.
He was lying in bed when he receiv-
ed his caller.
!"I am medium Of the highest type
but do not believe I am a medium" "
was his paradoxical greeting.
II attribute my power to talk to sup
posedly deceased persons to somnam-
bulistic development.
Just wait a moment. I'll call on the
devil and see what he has to say"
The devil, however, seemed little in
clined to venture much save few bits
Of moralizing on short skirts and kin
dred evils.
"See rs to me the DEVILS of today"
Chaloner remarked.
Undaunted, he called loudly for P. T.
Barnum, Caesar and. Roosevelt.
Finally he grabbed pencil and pen
from 4 chair beside the bed and wrote
furiously.

FASHIONS OF 1000 YEARS.
REPRESENTED. On Dolls Dressed by Mas
saehusetts Woman.


Fashions In woman's wear for the
last 1000 years, from the abundant
robes Of the Roman patrician to the alb
breviated skirts Of today are represent
ed on 1S5 dolls dressed by Mrs. Charles
S. Wright Of Pittsfield, Mass. Work
was begun on this unique collection of
mannequins more than six years ago,
after months Of study OF authenticated
prints portrayng styles Of different Pc
riods. 1t is said to be one Of the best
of it's kind in the world.
In specially furnished room mad
ames Of the dark ages, contemplate
bellies of the Renaissance and sprightly
debutantes Of our ante-bellum and
modern days. Eve also has a place In
the fashion review, but merely as an
example of how clothes make the wo-
man.
One Of the most interesting costumes
is that Of flsherwoman from the Firth
of Forth. Tailored suits and peek-a-
boo waists have had no effect on the
lusty Scots who live on that arm os
the sea, for their dress standard has
remained unchanged for 500 years.
Shifts in American styles are illus
trated by eight waXen faced beauties
starting with the street gown OF 1850.
In this display are an afternoon frock
Of 1857, Il calling costume Of 1869, ball
gowns Of 1850 and spring wear Of 1862
The opera goer of 1910 stands haught-
lily erect in the extremely tight skirt Of
that year.
Leaders in dazzling costumes are the
Japanese from the time of their intro
duction to the western world. Slant
eyed, brown faced dolls present COM
plcte picture of feminine Nippon's arm
or of conquest in rich silks and satins
A large group Of Chinese mannequins,
arrayed in heavy silk fabric. peer from
beneath the coquettsh Oriental SUM-
shades.
Hats have received particular atten-
tion in the collection. There are horn
ed headgear popular in the year 1900,
the monster mitre hats and the sugar
loaf hoods with clusters Of hair, dress
ed high against the supporting hearts
shaped device.
In analysing the various styles, Mrs.
Wright who is an author and the wife
of the district ATTORNEY of Berkshire
and. Hampden counties, says women of
all ages apparently cared less for the
material and more for the cut the
world over. =.

Sunset In Galilee.
The dying sun shone softly DER street
in Galilee;
It turned to gold the houses old, till all
were fair to see.
And women resting from their toll, call
ed greetings cheerily
From doorstep unto doorstep-in far
off Galilee.
They watched with loving eyes three
little children near a well.
And listened to their laughter as the
voices rose and fell.
Each woman thought her babe by. far
the fairest of the three;
For mothers yet were mothers-in DID,
en- Galilee.
Two boasted of their sturdy sons, so
strong, and brave and good;
But one in silence watched her child
and loved his milder mood.
The twilight faded as she gazed. And
then-all suddenly
halo shimmered round the boy-in
shadowy Galilee.
With quickened breath his mother
spoke: my baby son is he
Who nestled in the Loving Arms,
while gently, tenderly
Dear Jesus murmured: Suffer little
ones to come to mel
All! Blest Of all the world he is-in
blessed Galilee!"

"I've got it," he shouted jubilantly.

he exploded the suffrage bombshell.
Chaloner says Shakespeare has given
him two additional chapters to be add
ed to Hamlet.
"The Bard Of Avon is disgusted be-
cause Hamlet has long been taken for
an idiot and Ophelia for a lunatic," he
says. 1.-The two chapters will add will

chum; but, on the other hand, it may
not suit you.
Don't dress like your best friend.
You may just love her new ruffled or
candle frock, but isn't she tall and
thin?, Perhaps that's why She selected
it, and you may be, alas, short and
fat. A thin girl and n fat girl were
never intended to dress like twins.
The fat girl, the tall girl, the thin
girl and the little girl must learn TO
dress each for herself. Nine cases out
of ten, the other girls clothes no mat
ter how tempting you find them, are
not for you. Individuality is one Of
the secrets of correc. dress.
How to Wash Knitted Articles.
Sweaters, scarfs, and other knitted
or crocheted articles often lose their
shape when cleaned, unless special
precautions are taken. Work as fol-
lows. Measure the article. Use luke
warm water and white soap or soap
flakes. Wash the article by squeezing
rather than rubbing, and keep it un-
der water as much rs possible. When
lifting. keep the hand under and put
1t into Il Pan. Rinse until the last
water is clear. Squeeze out the water
either with the hands or by putting
through the wringer, keeping the
hand under, the garment TO prevent
stretching from the weight of the
water. Put through the wringer sew
eral times. changing the folds to take
out, as much water as possible. Place
on covered table, and distrctch or pat
into the original shape and size as
shown by the measurements. If de-
sirable, it may be pinned or fastened
in place by thumb tacks.
Find Giant Blackberry.-1n the
wilds Of Columbia at an elevation OF
nearly two miles above the sea has
been discovered n giant blackberry,
which is expected to prove most val
uuDlc 10 pliHl DTeeuelS Ill Lile CHIlcu
States. The fruits are two and one
half inches long by an inch and one
half in thickness and the plant can be
crossed to advantage with some of our
own best cultivated varieties.
The region in which it grows has
until recently been unexplored, hor-
ticulturally speaking, being remote
from routes Of travel. a number of
strong young shoots, together with
quality Of seed, have been forwarded
to Washington by Wilson Popenoe,
one Of our agricultural explorers.
This giant blackberry does not form
compact bushes, but sends up scatter
ed shoots from underground stems,
attaining Il height Of ten feet. Its
fruits ripen in it's native habitat prac-
tically throughout the year. In COL
ombia they are commonly stewed in
syrup, to make sort OF sweetmeat
which is served as a dessert.

BUSINESS REVIEW
Protect American Industry
(From the National Republican,

Recently the lime industry of the Pacific Northwest has
been asking for protection from the destructive competition
of the Chinese produced lime Of British Columbia Under
present tariff law lime and limestone admitted into
this country free of duty This schedule adopted over
the protest OF American producers who foresaw the ds
trous effect of unrestricted competition with Canadian IN
dustry which employed labor figure below the American
wage standard In view Of the present talk about the
danger Of retaliation following the elevation of tariffs
interesting to note the effect Of this reduction in our
lime tariff Canada promptly slapped duty OF ID to 30
per cent limestone 17R per cent manufactured
lime and 17 cent the value Of the package con-
tanning it, with provision that these rates could be in
creased at time by the Formally Of order in
council Today the quarries and lime plants Of the Puget
Sound territory 80 cent idle the result OF this
deadly arrangement The Canadian producer is additionally
encouraged TO take the American market by rates of
exchange which put premium American compared
with Canadian prices and by cheaper freight rates through
shipments in foreign bottoms to ports 1t worthy OF
note that all this has not helped the American
nickels worth. The mddemen have bought lime from
Canada cheaper than they could buy the American product
but they have continued TO charge the consumer all the
market would bear.
Recently when a hearing on Schedule B. including lime
and limestone in before the House Ways and
Means committee representatives Of the British Columbia
lime interests appeared 10 protest against the imposition of
tariff on the foreign product Imagine American
