INITIATION PLAN
REV|VES IS To |
SILVER ISSUE
Wheeler Proposes Scheme as
Farm Bill Amendment;
Defeat Predicted

A drive to expand the cur
rency was under way in the Sem
ate today as a group of 1nsur'
gent Democrats demanded re-
monetization of silver at the his
toric "16 to T. ratio.
At the instance of the group,
Senator Wheeler CD of Mon
tana offered an amendment to
the pending farm relief bill au-
thorizing the Treasury to re-
monetize silver. He proposed
the same ratio that the late viii.
liam Jennings Bryan demanded
in his free silver" campaigns OF
the nineties.
Back Thomas Plan
The same group was prepared,
too, to support the amendment
of Senator Thomas CD of Okla
homa proposing to authorize the
Treasury to initiate the cur
rency through any one of three
methods. The Administration
would be empowered to choose
between free coinage of silver at
its own fixed ratio, issuance Of
"greenbacks" on the faith and
credit of the Government, and
reduction of the gold content Of
the dollar.
Senator Robinson of Arkansas,
the Democratic floor leader, pre-.
dicted both plans would be de-
feated. He Said:
"T expect these silver and
initiation amendments to be
defeated. Amy legislation deal.
ing With such a delicate sub
ject should have careful con-
sideratiOn and should stand on
its own feet"
Robinson's attitude did not
disturb the inflationists. They
pointed out that Robinson pre-.
dicted defeat of the Simpson
price fixing plan.
Cites Changed Conditions
Senator Wheeler declared The
reconciliation of silver was
necessary to restore prosperity to
the farms. I-e argued there was
a different situation today than
in 1896, when the people rejected
the silver issue. He said:
"In 1896 we were a debtor
nation but today we are a
creditor nation. For that
reason, we can maintain q
fixed ratio of 16 to 1 between
silver and gold. They say we
would be flooded with silver,
but there are only 35O,OOO,OOO
ounces of surplus silver i'm all
the world. and if it all came
here, it wOulH be a mere bag.

TERRIFIC RUSH

 TAXES OPERATORS

An unusually heavy rush of tele- phone business, due to the severe weather, has kept the staff of the Juneau Telephone Company work ing at top speed for the last three days, and caused the company to request the cooperation of the citi- zens in using the telephone for business only, as far as it pos sible.
 Members of the company also wish the public to have patience with the overworked operators. who are doing their utmost to give good service and handle calls with ex- petition, under conditions which tax them to the utmost.
 Parents can help relieve the situation by explaining to the chil- dren to use the telephone only when necessary.

Capes For Breezy Springtime Chic
 CHECKED TWEEDS SMART FOR OUTDOOR GIRL
BY JOAN SAVOY NEA Gapvfne Vvrffer

Capes express spring as nothing else can quite do. They have that suggestion of waving motion that Is a spring breeze.
 This is a grand year to indulge your yen for capes. They come in so many varieties that you can't go wrong in your choice.
 If you are the lucky person who gets weekend invitations to the country, or if you are the out door girl who adores going to races and other sports events, the tweed ensemble that figures a cape in the picture is a grand choice. Checked Brown and White Tweed
 New
 New this spring is checked brown and white tweed. A par ticularly good version of what it's smart to wear is a dress and matching cape of brown and white checks.
 The dress is a smart, wearablc long-sleeved one, with natural chamois making a turn-back col lar, points on the cuffs and a ker- chief pointed belt over the top of the skirt in front.
 Over this the matching cape slips, but once on it slips no long CT. For two straps inside it are there to put your arms through. This anchors it perfectly so that 1t swings with you, not away from you.
 Dress Cut Full Below HipIine
 The big collar to the cape is faced with the chamois, too, all stitched neatly and effectively in brown. It has ample fullness, this cape, so that it can come close shut to keep you warm, if you need it. It is the new hip-length that is the jauntiest daytime length for 1893 capes.
 The dress is cut with fullness flaring below the hiplines to give athletic fullness to the skirt. In like manner, though the shoulders of the cape fit trimly, it has full ness that falls below, in accord with the skirts motion.
 Topped with a fez of chamois color and worn with chamois gloves, this is the smartest kind of q travel costume for the country, and equally chic when you arrive.

A Clue to New Beauty

Sally took off her hat and settled herself comfortably in big chair. My little beauty sleuth looked very serious as she reminded me that l had promised to tell her about a famous salon treatment that she had had in Paris and which she could now have in her own home.
 "You probably noticed, while you were in Paris, how the French wo- man guards her beauty secrets" Sally nodded. "She protects that illusion of beauty from the curi- ous regard of her dearest enemies. her servants-and her husband!"
 Its true" Sally agreed, French women hardly ever pow der their noses in public. But at home ."
 I told my little friend that there was really a way to give herself beauty treatments at home, too, that would not be too obvious. She herself had spoken of the marvel ous effect of a salon face treat ment-the herbal beauty masque explained that this was now available for home use, because the juice of the youth-giving herbs had been bottled and there was enough for ten or twenty treatments in each one.
 "But if I put 1t on in front of Dick :" Sally began.
 Then I told her that the clue to new beauty consisted of giving her self several beauty treatments at

 The breeze rustled Janets skirt and blew her hair back against her face. Silver Bay in the moon- light was really silver. Ear out on the water lights twinkled and music came from within the hotel. For an instant the beauty of the night swept everything else from Janet's thoughts.
 Then she heard Mrs Curtis voice and turned quickly. She said, "Your coat? Yes, Mrs Cur tis, Til get it right away"
 They had come to Silver Bay for two weeks. At the end of that time Mrs Curtis decided to spend an- other week there and at the end of the third week she decided to stay fourth. The first of September was just two days away when they finally arrived in Lancaster.
 Frederick met them with the car. The servants had all been back for several days and the only sign of change about the house was that instead of roses and del- phinium in the vases, as when they left, there were asters now and gladioli. The big house was fresh and cool and inviting. Far more attractive, Janet thought, than the hotel. She wondered why Mrs Curtis had ever wanted to leave it.
 Betty dropped in the first after noon they were back. She wore new and becoming dress and hat and she talked of parties she had gone to and parties to which she was invited. She spoke of Rolf casually and only after Mrs Curtis had asked about him. He was working as usual, she said. Betty chattered on for an hour and then hurried off for an en- gagement.
 She came in several times that week but always alone. Janet was unusually busy for letters had accumulated and there were bills to be paid. There were accounts to be gone over and checks sent To the cnarltleS Tn Wnlcn MrS Curtis was interested. Mrs Cur tis was coming to rely on Janet more and more and when any thing was wrong in the household it was to Janet that Bertha ap- | pealed.

 CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton

All of us are victims of mental suggestion. And children are es- pecially susceptible. This is why we should weigh almost every word we say to a child. It never does to talk to children very much about them- selves at any time, but to jump ahead anticipating trouble and voicing it to them is almost sure to bring the real thing in its wake. Billy is tired. His face is flushed and he doesn't want his lunch.
 His mother naturally is worried and the first thing she does is to express her fears to Billy himself. "You're sick, darling, I just know it." She feels his head. "Yes, you're very hot" Then expecting Billy to contra dict her alarm, to give her the comfort she simply must have, she follows up with, "Go on and eat your soup now. Maybe if you eat your soup and then lie down you'll be all right"
 So Billy Gets "Sick"
 Billy doesn't eat his soup and then he reverts to her first line. You mustn't go to school this afternoon. Come on, we'll go up- stairs and I'll tuck you into bed" Chuck calls for Billy and Billy. halfway up the stairs. pulls a long face and says, "I'm sick, Chuck. I'm going to bed"
 So Chuck goes off to school and says, Billy is sick" and Billy knows it and knows also that he has reputation to live up to now. About 3 o'clock he feels fine. He has had 8 sleep and he is hun gry.
 "Tm hungry" he calls to his mother.
 You'd better not eat anything. dear. I'm sure you are feverish, and-well, wait. I'll warm up little soup for you."
 "I don't want soup. I want some pancakes"
 You'd better go back to bed. I'll get you some clear soup." Billy goes back and Hops down, this time with a book. His stom- ach is empty, his head is starting to ache, and reading doesn't help it.
 And Finally, Doctor!
 His back gets cramped from ly- ing, so his mother brings the elec- tric pad. The shades are drawn. There is bottle of mild physic on the dresser~ The whole place has the atmosphere of sick room. His mother is telephoning to Grandma that Billy is sick. She says she thinks she'll have to call the doctor. Billy gets more and more worried. An! There's a pain in his ear. Goodness! There's another in his stomach!
 "Mom, Pm awful sick!" The doctor comes and prescribes nauseating dose. Then Bill is sick:
 And all the time there wasn't a thing wrong with him. A little ex- cited, a little tired, that was alh An afternoons sleep with the word sickness" left out would have fixed him up in fine shape.

The author answers that if she will really take the trouble to under stand the mans p.oblem. keep a cool head and use as much good psychology as she did in winning him, nine times out of ten she will rout the other woman from the field.

This is true all through life; if you think it is dangerous to sleep without locking your doors; If you believe the ice is too thin to skate on; if one nation believes ans other is preparing for war, the facts have no influence at all.

 The same thing is true of spring house cleaning. Why not use rub Der gloves you scrub, mop. brush and clean down the walls? You'll get used to working in them. And they certainly keep your hands looking like lady.
 Through all the spring process es, gloves are indispensable when you really care for your appear ance.
