LITTLE BENNY
RY LEE PArE.

PARIS, France. I wrote a letter to
Sid Hunt today. being this as follows:
Deer Sid: How are YOU" | bet wen
YOU use to play with me you never
t 2wt YOU would ever get a letter from
me that had to travel 1000 miles
across the ocean. but heer it is. I meen
hope il will be, because it takes
) cent F'rentch stamp to send it and
that would be prtty mulch Of a waist
in case the ship sank or enythng.

that cent l owe you. Don't worry,
You'll get 1t, onv ! don't like TO send
money through the mail 1t don't sound
safe. and there's no use of tempting
otherwise honest people by putting
money in letters ware they can feel it
and get Ulcers about taking it out.
SO don't forget to remind me wen l
get back.
| like il over heer pritty good. The
people look about the same as home
until they start to tawk and then
they sound different on account Of nat
urelly using their own language, but
otherwise they seem about the same
except the men have more mustashes
of all shapes, espcShily long and
downwerds, and lot of the ladies'
pritty neer have little mustashes too.
\ lot of the kids over heer roll
hoops out in the street. not seeming
like mulch fun. but they don't seem
to realize it and inioy it Jest same.

they wunted to have fun, and If that's
true why the verdi must he getting

that's all for now, write soon. Your

your teeth at the table. There is .
ways of doing it, jest plane and by

in back of the napkin as if you was

The idea of using plain draperies
with figured wallpaper and pat
termed draperics with plain paper is
safe one to follow, but it does not
always give the results that one
wants TO get. 1t is possible to COM
b!ne patterns with each if correctly
used, and it is often artistic in the
extreme to use n plain hanging with
plain wall. There must never he
any confusion in the former, and
there should almost always be a
beauty of color combination in the
latter. The one outstanding devia
ton in contrasts between wall and
hanging colors is when a room is
small and introducing a contrast
tends to make the walls contract too
much. Where ceilings are high the
contrast may tend to make the rooms
too high for their size.
And so we see that every rule In
the decorative treatment of walls and
windows is subject to exceptions. The
experienced decorator knows when to
advise clients to make exceptions to
rules and when to advise them to
stick to the rules. 1t is when advice
is given through writing. when the
decorator cannot pick out the paper
or the drapery fabric, that the safe
advice has to be stressed.
One Tone.
However am going TO give few
words about the one-toned trealment
that may help some of you who have
small rooms to do over. Plain paper,
that is. paper that is a background
and not definite pattern, should be
selected for main rooms. IL there
are several windows the walls will
be cut up If figured material is
chosen for the dra peries. Even a
contrast may hinder symmetry that
Is desirable. especially if the room Is
interrupted by angles in the architec-
tural structure.
Such a room will respond pleas
ingly to a one toned wall and win

The truth of this Is unknown because
lovers being no longer fattered by the
affection Of women who are not young,
sometimes take as much pains to hide
their passion as they would to dis.
play it. il their idols were only 20.
For my own part l am persuaded that
men above 40 are far less plea sing
than women Of the same age"
Interestingly enough though Saint
Armand considered Madame de Main.
tenon a veritable beauty, she really
was not so considered. She is not
usually listed among the beautiful.
The regularity OF her conduct had
kept away wrinkles from her noble
face, so that at 80 she was as at.
tractive as in her girlhood.
Among present-day celebrities of 80
should be mentioned Villa Gather, the
much admired American novelist, and
Margaret Anglin. the actress.

dow treatment. There should be
a neutral color selected, such as a
French Cray, soft fawn or ecru.
Re very wary Of having the tint of
the paper cold fer A northern eX-
posture or too warm for one that
is sunny. Nor should the color he
pronounced such as a decided green,
blue or rose.
Color Is introduced.
With the uniformity of such a color
scheme it is essential to have the
wall spaces punctuated by splashes
of color. These may be found in
decorative hangings, such as tapes
tries or in colorful pictures, or in rich
toned old paintings. Japanese prints
lend themselves marvelously to such
a decorative scheme.
Other Touches.
FlOwering plants or bouquets OF
flowers on window stills will add notes
of gayety to window treatments. rob-
bling them of monotony. Also il the
draperies are held with tie backs
they can be of some exquisite needle
work such as bands of Chinese en-
broidery or Persian embroideries.
Assist work in one tone that brings
ont the beauty of the dominant color
is recommended also.
Curtain Pulls.
Another note of color can be
br. usht into the window treatment.
II there are fancy curtain pulls with
he colors in them catching some con-
trasting note struck in the color
scheme of the room these will lend
cha rn.
1t must he remembered that the
one toned scheme for walls and win
dows is successful only when the
rooms are small In large rooms the
result would be a tiresome monotony
Earring to the nerves rather than
soothing as would he the effect when
the room WAS small.

Strike Injunctions Designed
To Deny Workers Jury Trials,
Chicago Labor Head Declares

Organized labor never did and I hope
never will sanction force and violence
even against strikebreakers. Still
two-thirds of all injunction writs are
in restraint of force and violence. and
other criminal acts.
Injunction's Real Purpose
"Then these privately owned Judges
and courts must have some definite
purpose to serve when they deliber-
ately devote two-thirds of every in
junction decision restraining labor
from committing acts which the work
ers naturally shrink from committing
The real purpose, then, is to cover up
the crime which judges knowingly
commit when they issue such injunc-
tions.
"The issuance of an injunction in a
labor dispute has only one purpose to
serve, and that is not to uphold law
or preserve the peace, but is to deny
the workers their constitutional guar
anty of the right of trial by jury
when charged with committing
crime, and this illegal and criminal
use of the writ of injunction is the
only method by which a person
charged with a crime can be punished
without trial by jury.
Judge ISs All-PowerfuI
Under the Injunction proceedings
we are not punished for the crime we
are charged with, but we are punished
for being in contempt of court, and in
such proceedings no law stands be-
tween the judge and his victim. The
judge has absolute power, because
he must uphold the dignity of his
court.
"Just as soon as the American peo-
pie understand this contemplate trick
in the use of injunctions they will
make short shrift of corporation
owned judges and courts"
