and uowns for Spring Wear Garments in Vast Array . Make f Choice Wholly Up to tit -' ? ' Individual. mttFORIIS AHONG PAST EVILS Mannish Dressing Does Not Admit of :£$- Women Looking Their Best; , Pretty Clothes Bring Out *'V..This Disposition. Clothes reflect current events and the spirit of the times in which we ilive to a greater extent than appears to the casual observer. Fashions are now as topsy-turvy as the rest of the world, observes, a prominent fashion 1 correspondent. Many things are .< shown, but few are chosen, so the best thing we can do is to select the clothes that best express beauty and • harmony and that above all are lovely « and feminine. * l«et uniforms and mannish dressing for women be among past evils. It may be that uniforms are inspiring t© feminine wearers--some people think So--but why be inspired to be an efficient machine? Who wouldn't prefer the Inspiration that comes from frills and furbelows? If a woman Is beautifully and becomingly dressed she has that soul gratifying assurance that comes with the knowledge that she is I Navy blue trieotine gown and cape to match affords one of the favorite combinations. looking her best, and she is possessed of something akin to the faith that removes mountains. There Is no doubt about it--pretty clothes make ns cheerful and happy and charming. There are ever so many new French Ideas that we can use in making our *^««<ppring frocks smart and becoming-- striking lining. for instance, the little underslecrea of white mnll that peep from beneath short, tight sleeves of either silk or serge dresses are beautiful. Many of these have picot finished frills of the mull set on flatly, and sometime^ these frills are edged with real lace. Worth showed directoire gowns oi silk with tiny undersleeves, and often a matching treatment was carried out in the rounding neckline. Here a little gilet of mull was edged with one of these perky fluted frills that barely showed Itself from beneath the cloth. Short-waisted dresses of taffeta are corded both at the waistline and rounded neck, and sometimes at the bottom of tl e sleeves is well. Several of these dresses have small directoire capes to complete them. Such capes are cut short in the front and longer in the back. Winged Moths Luring the Flames. A slender, straight-line dress with a cape that makes its wearer look like a little winged moth is picturesque enough for any woman who does not wear strictly tailor-made things and practical enough to adapt Itself to any hour of the day. Wide box plaits of the cloth that hang loose except wherq they are caught at the neckline and underneath the hem at the bottom of the skirt are a new feature. The round neckline appears in this model and it is softened by a rolling collar of white silk. Venetian red buckles are used to fasten the belt, which is somewhat wider than is usually worn on gowns of this type. The cape is made like those just described, which curve shorter in front, and it is slit for armholes at either side. White satin Is used for its lining. Many of these capes shown at the French openings were lined with cotton fabrics. Old-fashioned white cross-barred muslin frequently was used to line both capes and coats. • Trimmings far Topcoats. Topcoats have not been neglected this season. They, too, hpve come in for their share of trimmings at a time when everybody seems to be quite mad on the subject of ornamentation. Leather and tweed are favorite combinations for country wear. Coarse grained black leather without even a suspicion of gloss forms a voluminous shawl collar, cuff and even ample patch pockets on a coat of dark gray homespun, and with a narrow strip of leather it Is belted high under the arms; then It flares toward the bottom after the manner of swagger topcoats. Smooth red leather trims a motor coat of dust-colored Irish tweed. The large buttons that fasten it are leather-covered, and this time the leather collar and revers swlhg the pendulum of fashion in the opposite djrection by being very scanty. The cuffs are unusually narrow; in fact, they are little more than facings. To make this overcoat warmer as jvell no smarter it is given a red cloth lining. Linen of coarse weave is used to make surplice waistcoats for still other topcoats. Marine blue is the color most often cliosen, and a leather collar and cuff in the same hue is added. One new motor coat that I saw was of black and white plaided worsted. It was a loose, baggy affair with raglan sleeves, and tan leather faced the collar and cuffs. Another goodlooking one was of champagne-colored camel's hair cloth--the real camel's hair cloth which is so difficult to procure now. The coat was swung from a deep yoke, and the collar, which in this instance was of the cloth, rumpled up abound the ears in becoming folds. Champagne-colored silk with a broad purple stripe made a START PROBE OF STATE T1X BODY Malone-Pullman Charges Under Before Legislative Committee. TRAINS RETURN TO FASHION Swirling Width of Material Arranged St It Can Bfc Hooked Up or Slipped Over Arm. Trains have returned to fashion and dancing is being taken up again by • swirl of young and middle-aged women. The world has always danced when peace prevailed. So dance gowns, were ordered by the dozen as aoon as the night of darkness turned &pto the day of sunshine. And yet at this very moment long, gght skirts and trains have appeared. It is true that the swirling width of material called a train is arranged so that it can be hooked up on the skirt "or slipped over the arm by a loop of metal or bead embroidery, but the abort, full skirt which came in with dancing is considered quite out of atyle. However, women will not find the narrow skirt as difficult to dance as when an American first brought the ragtime steps from France, for we ]»ve diminished the speed and the length of those steps in dancing so that the best dancers rnrely move their feet far from each other. If all the public dances as the best dancers do. In the correct syncopated way, the tight skirt will be no bar to pleasure. Non-Tubable Silks. H Is thought that the season will see the use of more silks and materials that are non-tubable and It will be a great relief.to some women to be just as extravagant in their clothes as they want to be. Light-colored georgettes, chiffons and numerous novelty silks with much advertised trade names are being used lavishly and It Is also understood that these silky materials and flannels will be mucb used for the separate skirt. :« . < .

There was a time, long years ago, when we used , to wear high, stiffened collars of velvet and satin and silk. Vfe considered those fabrics--velvet gild satin and silk--quite the fabrics far collars in those days. Then when collarless frocks came In we wore collars of white wash fabrics, organdie and muslin of various sorts. For, of course, though our frocks were collarless they bad collars Jttst the same. That is, there were turned-back and rolled-over collars, .. Oven more Important than the high ones that hugged and marred our necks used to be. So we ran along for years with collars and other sorts of "neckwear of organdie and net and lace. Then, again, satin came into being #• a neckwear fabric io first favor. And colored muslins of various sorts *%|*re also used, v ' t And now there are even some other, unusual materials in vogue for collars. One Is scrim, of a heavy, coarse weave, embroidered, which is used on some of the frocks of serge and satin Chinese silk--that is to say silk or satin much embroidered in the Chinese fashion--is another fabric now used for collars on serge frocks Needless to say, this doesn't mean that if you happen to have a bit of soch silk on hand you can simply pin it deftly around the neck of your new blue serge frock and think you have a collar of the most up-to-date sort. No; but your dressmaker can use a bit of this silk for such a purpose by cutting It properly. And very probably she will reiterate the same colors in some embroider; or otbqr rmrt at the frock.

" ' Brewers Contend U."St Alona Can Regulate Booze After January- Deny State's Power to Rule Saloon. Springfield.--Und$r the direction of Senator Richard J. Barr of Jollet, probe into the state board of equalization muddle with regard to the increase In the taxes of the Pullman company, was started here this week. Senator Barr was chosen chairman of the joint committee of the legislature to ascertain whether equalizers were threatened because they increased the tax on the capital stock of the Pullman company. Homer J. Tire of the lower branch is serving as secretary of the committee, and the work of-the probers was scheduled for immediate action at the capitol building. Chairman Barr was instructed to ol> tain copies at the debate that took place last week in the joint revenue commit tee hearing when William H. Malone, chairman of the board of equalization, made the sensational charges that caused Gkmrnnr Lowden to send a special message to the legislature calling for an investigation. On behalf of the house Speaker Shahahan appointed Representatives Vice, Tice, F. A. McCarthy, Kasserman nnd J. W. Ryan. The senate committee is made up of Senators Barr, Jewell, Cornwell,, Buck and Manny. Omar Wright, director fit tlie department of finance, whose name was brought Into the controversy relative to threats alleged t«» have been made over the Increased tax imposed upon the Pullman company, gave out a statement in which he says: "The charge made and siioiis^red by William H. Malone, chairman of the state board of equalization, that I endeavored to obtain a reducthm of the capital stock assessment of the Pullman company is absolutely and unqualifiedly false. At no tinle have I approached any member of the state board of equalization with reference to the assessment of the Pullman company or any other corporation." -Two new angles have been injected into the pending wet and dry legislation before the Illinois legislature. One is the right of the Illinois general assembly to enact a tew enforcement hill that would have anything to do with the enforcement of the federal prohibition constitutional amendment. The other is the question of the authority of the legislature to enact the "state commissioner of prohibition" bill which proposes to enforce the existent antl^salcwn territory law. The contention is that the Illinois anti-saloon law becomes void when the federal prohibition amendment becomes, the law of the land on January 20 next year. A legal opinion which reached Springfield said: "The power reserved to the states by the eighteenth amendment is not an equal and independent power, and the grant In the amendment to the states is not one of plenary power, but merely a power to enforce an organic part of the supreme law of the land." » This opinion further concludes that the power of the states to enforce prohibition legislation is limited to enactment of statutes not in conflict with federal statutes on the same subject. In substance, the conclusion of the opinion, which Is likely to be the lust stand of the brewers, is that the next regular session of congress will have the -sole authority to enact the laws that can enforce the prohibition amendment. and that, any intervening state enforcement laws are either unnecessary or temporary, and in either event substantial until the enforcement act ol congress shall have been passed. The state enforcement proposals of the Anti-Saloon League of Illinois are comprised within two bills. The first is now known a* the "search-and-seizure" bill: the other is the bill that would create the official who would have the jtower of investigating and enforcing the ttrftl-salcon laws of the state. A field day for consideration of all "wet" and "dry" bills was decided upon for Wednesday, May 21, in the house. Senator Cnnaday's mothers' pension bill passed the hou*e without a dissenting vote. It increase^ the tax of three-tenths of one mill on the dollar for the mothers' pension to one mill in counties of 300.000 population or less, and to four-tenths of a mill in other counties of I he state. JoVI«w 11 line! a Wftarvniy Route, A house committee <rf eleven members, headed by Representative Me- Cabe of I<ockport, will make a trip over the proposed route of the Lock- Utlca waterway before the lower ranch of the assembly begins debate ion the waterway measure. .v• , oof jPaaeea Reserve Militia Measure. -Jy. The house passed the Brady bill establishing the Illinois reserve militia on the same basis as the National Ouard. An emergency clause makes the law effective with the governor's signature. All expenses of .the. tfcSetyjR, militia by the provisions of "the hill will be borne by the state. Urges State to Dp Own Road Work. The report of the Dailey joint legislative committee that has been investigating the cost of production of building and construction materials needed in the Illinois post-war reconstruction period finds there is no evidence of a combination of paving brick manufacturers. It finds indications that seem to point to a combination on prices between cement manufacturers, and recommends the establishment of a state plant to manufacture cement. The committee reports that the record contains no evidence of "illegal agreements for the purpose of profiteering" in any business subject to the observations made concerning cement prices. . The report. In its conclusions, says: "We are driven to the inevitable, logical conclusion that existing prices will not decline materially, and that these prices express a new and substantially permanent level upon which present and future business must be conducted. "We believe it to he our duty as public officials to advise the public not to delay building projects'in the hope prices will come down materially. We do not believe they will. "All contemplated buildings, homes and Improvements should be started now. Reconstruction can only be accomplished in its real sense by* ^very citizen subscribing to the doctrine 'Buy now, build now.' " Legislative recommendations in the report included: "State operation of road-building material plants. The direct interest of the state in a comprehensive system of road building makes it imperative that the state should protect the public from extortionate charges for road building material. We believe the state should be authorized by law to manufacture products entering Into the public improvements of Hp; state." Contracts for 650 Miles of Road. Road-building contracts for 650 miles were let by the state department of public works. The average price per mile, as announced by Director of Public Works Frank I. Bennett, is $27,- 000, as against an $18,000 estimate, when the $00,000,000 bond isue program was made. . Contracts were let with tlie explicit understanding that Oovernor Lowden stands for inflated prices only because of the tremendobs demand for road building and the necessity of employment of labor. Director Bennett Issued a statement on behalf of the administration, saying: "The cost of the sections awarded averages about 40 per cent higher than pre-war prices. Of this increase 10 per cent consists of increase of freight rates and an added thickness of onehalf Inch additional e»««:rete. "One-third nf this 40 per cent increase consists of increased price of cement. The average price for the whole country for cement at the mills for 1914, as shown by the geological survey division of the department of the interior was 92.7 cents per barrel. Illinois prices were and are somewhat below the average. The bids received by the state for cement are $1.70 per barrel, with a further discount of 5 cents per barrel fbr prompt payment, which makes the increased price of cement about 79 per cent over the 1914 average price. "The remaining two-thirds of the Increased -cost Is partly due to increased labor and equipment, cost of construction, and purtly to increased cost for stone and gravel--the latter being slight. "The roads to be modernized are the old Cumberland or National trail, in the southern imrt of the state, running from the state line near Terre Haute to St. Lout's; the Dixie highway, near the eastern line of the state from Chicago Heights to Danville; the Chicago, .Toliet, Ottawa La Salle, Peoria, Springfield, Carlinville, Edvvardsviie and East St. Louis; the Lincoln highway, from Chicago to Fulton the Wisconsin road from Niles to the Wisconsin line north of Zlon City. "High as these prices a re. It may be some comfort to know that they are below the average prices for similar roads, contracts for which have been let In recent months in' other states. The average price on roads simiiar tQ this, so f£4- ns hns been reported to this office, in other states, Is something like $33,500 a mile." Film Men to Hold Convention. Announcement was made by W. W. Watts, newly lected president of the State Motion Picture association, that a convention of mation-picture owners of the state will be held in Springfield about May 20. for the purpose of discussing pending legislation in regard to the censorship of motion pictures. About 500 exhibitors are expected to be in attendance and will ask for a special hearing before a joint session of the general assembly to present arguments in opposition to measures now pending. Interest in Reform Revenue Bill. Much interest is being manifested in the so-called state administration reform revenue bill, which eliminates the state board of equalization, now before the general assembly. This is one of the reforms to which Governor Lowden is committed, and he is using his influence to have the bill passed. ^The bill is now before the revenue committee. As the bill now stands, it abolishes the state board of equalization but docs not abolish any other of the local or county taxing officials. Pass "Blue Sky" and 8alary Bills. By a vote of 42 to 0 the senate passed the Kessinger "blue sky" bill intended to protect the public against concerns dealing in fraudulent or unsafe securities. The bill, has been sent to the house. It is said to have the approval of the administration. The house by a vote of 101 to 10 passed the McDavid bill fixing a minimum salary of $80 a month for teachers in the public schools. The bill, which goes to the senate, does not apply to districts which have levied the maximum amount for taxes. Denies Increase In Traction Fares. The state public utilities commission recently entered an order denying the application of the Alton, Granite City & St. Louis" Traction company to Increase fares in the city of Altoo to 8 cents, and also a similar fare for street railway service in Venice and Brooklyn, Madison edunty. The two petitions were filed by the company some time ago on the ground that the continued increase in the cost of operation and equipment makes as 8» cent fare necessary. Back Laat kK Achy ?

Demand fbr Them la Boun% to Add Value to the Land of Our Northern Neighbor, Now to Be Had Cheap. A large area of the land in several counties In Ohio prepared for spring seeding will be seeded with Marquis wheat--a spring variety. This wheat is Imported from Western Canada. It was about three years ago that the first of this seed was imported Into the States, and the result, watched each succeeding year, proved that Ohio soil and spring seeding was a success. The demand for the seed has now become j so great that one of the largest seed houses in the state, that has been pur- i chnslng from Western Canada fanners ' and Importing It. has decided to pur- j chnse a large block of land In that j country for the purpose of growing the j grain themselves. They will devote j a considerable portion of their Western Canada holdings to growing oats, bnrley and rye. Their action Is a strong indorsement of the product. For some time past a considerable quantity of seed onts has nlso been imported. The prolific yield reported was j what probably gave an impetus to' the Introduction of wheat. It was found, though, after a couple of years the quality of the outs, as well as the yield, hegan to deteriorate ' when grown seed was used, making It j necessary for fresh Importations every couple of years. It Is possible that the same exnerlence may follow the growing of Western Canada wheat. In fact It Is quite probable, and the Ohio farmer will find It necessary to Import every two years. With the success that has followed the Ohio farmers' experiments with this Imported seed It is possible other states now growing winter wheat wifl begin growing spring wheat. It may therefore he taken for ernnted that Western Canada, In addition to Its ability to produce hundreds of millions of bushels of wheat possessing the greatest percentage of cluten of any wheat In the world, will shortly be called upon to provide the seed that will he grown on the additional acres In the United States that may be devoted to snrlne wheat. It Is a well-established fact that the further north any product of the farm can be brought to a state of maturity, the more vigorous It becomes. This has been proven In the grains that have been produced In Western Canada ; it has been shown In the development of Its horses. Its cattle, Its sheep and Its hogs; also In Its people- The neighbor to the north really has a splendid future before him, and many years will not have passed hefore the lands that are selling today at much less- than their producing value will bring prices more commensurate with their true worth than they do today. Think of lands that yield In their operation a profit of from fifteen to twenty-five dollars an acre a year selling at figures less than $40 an acre. It does not require a mathematician to -figure the percentage of profit. It Is unfair to these lands to ask them to continue these profits for long. So It Is safe to make the prediction that In a very few years they will place themselves on a parity with other lands that today produce less and sell for much more.--Advertisement, t Better Thrin Piih Fbr Liver Ills.
