CURTAIN TRIMMINGS

In making curtains for almost any room in the home. it is a good idea to keep in mind the fact that even the plainest of curtains can be made more beautiful. Some persons cut out some cretonne, hang it up any old way and are satisfied that they have curtains But think of all the loveliest curtains you have seen and compare yours with them. Perhaps you will blush with shame. E
 So little trouble can save a curtain from mediocrity that it is worth the time needed. If around the edge of a
 plain. straight cretonne curtain q wide pleated ruffle of plain colored na- terial were attached, wouldn't it be. sweet?

Raggedy Ann took them and then said. Why. look! The glass the mean old Witch had in her glasses was all spotted and cloudy! l shall put new glasses in and see how she likes them. And Raggedy Ann ran back to where they had found the pieces of round glass and in q few moments had fitted two clear pieces of yellow glass in the Witch's spectAc Acles.

NEW STATE LAW NEEDED.

Hhoenix, Ariz., Jan.-Deport-
alton of insane persons from
other states and countries will
be sought through legislative
action in Arizona by DR.. George
w. Stephens, superintendent of
the state hospital for the insane.
While other states, notably
California, sends all afflicted re-
sidents of Arizona back to the
counties from which they come
and thence to the state hospital
here, Arizona has no law, ac-
cording to DR. Stephens, to pro-
vide for deportation.
A recent census of the state
hospital showed that out of 600
patients only so were natives of
the state and but a very few of
the remaining bonafide residents
of Arizona. Thirty-four are re-
sidents of Texas. 30 of Califor-

Mexico and many others from
nearly every other state in the

GREAT REBUILDING FORCE.

The greatest community re-
constructive force for rebuilding
burned homes, business, places,
industries and cities devastated
by confiagrations is insurance.
In England they speak of it as
assurance. But insurance or as
surance, the idea expressed is
one of the main objects of in
telligent life and social organiza-
ton.
Human society is an invention
evolved and perfected through
the ages by mankind for the
purpose Of giving it's members
insurance or assurance against
misfortunes and provision fol
needs. There is no human ser
vice that makes a stronger ap-
peal to the mind that is rational
and mature
Insurance of property is an
economic problem, a business.
It is much more. Insurance is
in the main founded on the quail
tiles of human mind and heart
which make civilized society pos
sible.
For it is the man who is will
ing to make sacrifice for others
and who has intelligence and
self-control enough to seek pro
vision for misfortune who makes
civilized society possible.
Insurance will spread with the
spread of popular intelligence.
1t is one of the chief factors in
American prosperity and well
being: and it's Importance is
steadily increasing. 1t is a bust
ness, but it is also and above
all, service. It has been built
up by private initiative and en-
terprise. .-Ex.

who has just retired after more than
81 years service, has turned to remi-

Speaking of the ghosts" that are
said to have been at the castle from

denied that ne had ever seen any.
though he added: II have heard a

There was reason to believe, he
said, that the supposed ghosts" that
a guards sentry shot at on the east
terrace some years ago was really
a man. Mr.. Miles served under three
sovereigns and said that of all the
historic ceremonies he had seen the
most notable was that in June, 1911,

RED AIMS SHOWN
AT SECRET DINNER
Russian Envoy Tells French
There Must Be No Talk of
"LaW and Property"
By the Associa tied Press.


PARIS, November 1O.-The will
tngness of the Russian Soviets to
forget some of their communist
principles in the forthcoming nego-
tiations with the French and a warn
ing to the little group of French
political leaders and influential news-
papermen that there must be no talk
ing of law" and sacred property
Is set forth by the newspaper Quo
tidien in an account of a secret din
ner given to Christian Rakovsky, the
Soviet minister in London, when he
was supposed to have left Paris for
the English capital.
The reporter of Quotidien went to
the dinner as an unlimited guest, ac-
cording to the newspaper. He was
dressed in business clothes and bluff
ed his way into the dining room,
passing himself off as a friend of NJ
Rakovsky. The guests at the dinner,
according to the reporter. included
NJ Noulens, former French Ambassa-
dor to Petrograd, and Jean Herbette,
who has Just been appointed Ambas-
sador to Moscow.
Sees Difficulties Ahead.
L realize all the difficulties await
ing US" said Rakovsky in an ad-
dress referring to the prospective
Franco Russian negotiations, accord
ing to the correspondent. But" he
added, 1--WE diplomats know enough
how on an occasion to sacrifice our
principles in order to further Rus
sian interests"
NJ. De Monzie, president Of the COM
mission which arranged for recogni-
tion of the Soviet government. and
who was host at the dinner, asked
M Rakovsky to have the Russians
guard against possible causes for
dissension, such as "a 33d secretary"
of the Russian embassy in Paris mix
ing in French politics with the French
Communists But, according to the
reporter, Nj. RakovSky evaded- an
swering, except to warn the French
against a renewal of the errors of
the Geneva conference. where we
seemed to be before a Justice Of the
peace, and where the delegates Of all
your Western countries has on their
lips only the words law and sacred
property
In view of our principles and our
beliefs" Rakovsky Is quoted as hav-
ing added, failure was inevitable II
at Paris we get on this slippery
ground / fear the results will be the
same"
NJ. De Monzie assured NJ. Rakovsky
that we never again will put our
feet on your slippery ground" and it
was generally understood, says the
reporter, that the French press and
politicians ought to avoid talking of
law, property rights and the claims
of Russian bondholders for the pres
ent.
NJ. De Monsie, suspecting that a
story of the dinner would be pub
lished, issued a statement last night
asserting that the dinner was entire
ly private, and that no publicity
concerning it was authorized. He
did not, however, deny the story as
published by Quotidien.

The silken cloths are mostly the creations of
famous French designers, restricted to this
particular brand. And the greater part of
them are exclusive with u.s. so that you may
select number and know that you will see
no others like them in Washington.
A more beautiful or complete assortment of
high-grade neckwear we believe, has never
before been shown. For gifts that will please,
they are ideal. Yet with all their exclusive
merits, they cost no more.
