Washington, July 11-Razors, knives. needles and parts of watches succeeded today the old straw hat as exhibits before the house of repre- sentatives in the debate on the perma- nent tariff bill.
 Representative Tilson of Connecti- cut, republican member of the ways and means committee, used them as tn, basis for his argument that high prices of such articles were necessary to protect specific industries. He de- clared that all of the samples he had brought 10 the house were of Ameri- can made articles which would feel mos. keenly any effect of a German drive on American business. e*'
 He declared that thus far the den1- ocratic attack on the bill had amount ed to "substantia nothing as viewed by those familiar with it's de tails. He attributed the speeches and reports of the minority members to "the requirements of party exigency Of pal tisan bias.'

FEEDING 175 SPANIARDS
Board of Charities Is Expending $35O
 :. -Week-Mayor Denies Destitute Conditions.

More than 1,400 is being expended each month by the board of chari- ties in feeding members of the local Spanish colony, Mayor o. F. Curtis stated this afternoon in a denial that the Spaniards are being discrimi- mated against to such an extent that they are becoming destitute.
 Instead of growing worse con- ditions seem to be bettering in the Spanish colony, statistics offered by Superintendent Cowlishaw of the charity board indicate. In the month of May 265 Spanish residents were being cared for. Last month this number dropped off to l75. Each person is given about S2.0O worth of edib1es a week.
 If there are any Spaniards starving it is their own fault, the mayor states, since not single person has been refused aid. Applicants are given meal tickets in some instances. There is but one Spanish voter regis tered as unemployed and he was cared for at once.

THE HOUSEKEEPER WHO
DRESSES SIENSIBLY.

I am going to chat today on the
subject of sensible dress. The
more / look about me at some of
the extremes of fashion, the more
convinced l become that we house
keepers should stand together for
sensible dress.
Now, / don't mean by that that
| the housekeeper should not LOOK
as smart and up-to-date as any
! other woman. And l think this
old world would be a stupid, mo-
notonous place If new fashions
were not created now and then, to
give us variety. The only thing
I'm "agin" is going to extremes
in dress.
Let us look back over the his
tory of dress, from the time of the
early Egyptians, and note the ten"
! dency of the various eras toward
| either common sense or folly in
silhouette, price and general de-
sign of costumes. The early Egypt
| ian dressed very simply until the
Asiatic conquests; after that new
standard of luxury was established
and the dress of the people became
|
| before - characterized by fanc7
headdresses and much ornamental
ton.
The dress Of the early Romans
and Greeks was simple and beauti-
full In line. The early Gauls paint
ed and tattooed parts of their
bodies and wore animal skins until
So B. c., when Caesar conquered
them; they then became Roman
! lied, DOMINIC tunic and mantle,
| but their barbaric tendencies were
manifest in color, ornamentatior
and an abundance OF gaudy jew
elry. After the conquest of the
Gallo-Romans by the Franks,
however, in the Fifth century, and
| the establishment of the French
| kingdom, a combination of Ro-
man, Gallo and Frankish costume
was adopted consisting of tunic,
short trousers, leggins and mantle.
The Eighth century was practi-
cally the beginning of the French

RIDGES ON THE NAILS.

Finger nails that show lot of
ugly ridges are never pretty.
Ridgy nails always look old and
oyerworked and badly cared for.
And most women seem to think
that nothing can be done about 1t.
If the nails have been full of
ridges for years only little can
be done, but with patience a GER
tain amount of improvement can
be expected However, where the
ridges are only just appearing an
enormous amount can be done.
And when 1 say "just appearing
/ mean when these ridges have not
shown themselves for more than
eight or ten years.
These ridges can be filed off by
using soap and a tiny piece of wet
pumice stone. The hands should
first Of all to be washed with hot
water, then the pumice stone, wet
in hot water and covered with
soap, Is rubbed gently back and
forth over the top of each little
ridge. When the nail is thus soft

down each ridge until the surface
of the nail is perfectly smooth. IL
must be done gently because you
do not want to wear away the nail

BEAUTY CHATS
BY Edna Kent Forbes.

I treatment except that as you have
dried the nail by using 80 much
pumice the best thing to do after
you have polished it smooth is to
wash it again to remove the pol
ishing powder, and then to rub it
thoroughly with cold cream or
olive oil.
| Anita: The one piece dress with
simple lines will make you appear
taller. Never use trimming which
cuts up the height and do not wear
very short skirts. Massage the an
kles and feet, using a strong solu-
ton of EPSON salts. Neither q
very high, nor very low heel Is a
good choice, but one which Is be-
tween these sizes, and broad, will
be found best for comfort and
service.
Anxious: You are merely I'M
evenly developed, which is often
the case with very young girls and
a few years more changes all this,
when they have completed their
growth.
| M. P. w. ": I will be glad to
send you a formula for an excel
lent hair tonic, If you send me a
stamped addressed envelope.
Agnes: The recovery from a
nervous breakdown is usually slow,
but you can help by living out in
the air as much as possible. keep
ing a cheerful attitude toward 1t
and eating plentifully of simple
and nourishing food. Such a con-
dition is often overcome by Sleep
ing out of doors, especially if the
person must be confined during
the day
Mabelle: The yeast recommend
ed is that which comes in cakes
! and the same as that used in RATS
ing dough.
