The Daily Republican Every Day Except Sunday , HEALEvT CLARK, Publishers. * INDIANA. A good many women would rather o Join a suffrage hike than wash dishes. In an ago of artificial ice is it not wasteful to keep on discovering poles? _ Seems as though nobody was to be safe. It is now proposed to take the tariff off lemons. , One of the new dances is called the "jelly wabble." Perhaps you learn it out of the cook book. History has never recorded an instance where the world has failed to mourn the loss of brave men. How much prettier a woman looks when photographed in the act of skating than when committing golf ! A noted New York Physician advocates open air schools for all children. Not a bad idea by any means. One of the biggest questions confronting' the hotel men of the country Is running a hostelry to suit every patron. China, It Is now reported, is going to have an aeroplane fleet for police use. This will put the force In the air. - Even If cockroaches do not produce cancer—a German scientist says that they do—why should anybody cultivate them? Next year the ,100th anniversary of the treaty of Ghent is to be celebrated with five minutes of silence. Glorious and unique!
Bow-legged men have just cause to be peeved over the report that fashion ordains men to wear garments of a clinging variety. A Harvard professor has discovered that a domestic pigeon leads an intellectual life. Then why can’t it talk pigeon English 7 Bricks are now being sent by parcel post, but this will not increase the facilities of those people who are fond of throwing them. Why do the advertisements for southern resorts depict people sitting in perambulators? Is something the matter with their legs? The young woman who says she prefers death to a kiss can scarcely * qualify as an expert, since she admits that she has tried neither. Nothing recalls the mind of the married man to the joys of single life so vividly as to find that the baby has been eating crackers in bed. Intimation that a lion attempted to eat up a moving picture actor suggests the need of laws for the protection of cinematograph heroes. Some of the popular magazines will have to be printed a year or two ahead in order suitably to advertise the advanced styles in automobiles. A projectile has been Invented in Germany which will not only pierce a war balloon but will actually set it ablaze, a high test for results.
A philosopher says: “Whistlers are always good-natured.” Everybody knows that It is the folks who have to listen to the whistler that gets ugly. Boston is using a new word, “fudgy,” to express team work. We place the wrong construction on it if we said that the ball club showed great “fudgy.” A Brooklyn judge ruled that a broomstick is not a deadly weapon. An irate woman can wield it just as effectively as a bludgeon, is the general belief. The married cadet at West Point will not be allowed to stay. This is in line with the usual army policy of not allowing a divided command over its members. *-• Even if the boast of the Chinese that China is overtaking the rest of the world is justified, China need not feel entitled to any sprinting medals on that account Wives should take note of the fact that if the operation of grafting a dog's brain onto a man’s head proves successful, they will have regular fireside companions. A Chicago magistrate makes auto speeders take the pledge. The idea of putting offenders on their honor is new only in this particular respect, but if temptation proves too strong pledges and pedestrians will have to take their* chances.
The era of superstition seems to be weakening when a steamship company makes its day for sailing on Friday. But It is not averred that even the big company can make passengers occupy staterooms numbered 18. A Denver legislator proposes to compel surgeons to exhibit the alleged diseased appendixes they remove, and If there is nothing wrong with any of them, send the experimenter to jail. The doctors regard this as hostile legislation, calculated to interfere with prosperity.
IN WHITE MARQUISETTE
DRAPED PANNIER BKIRT ALONG THE LATEST DESIGNS. Many Materials Will Be Used the Coming Summer for Drapery of v This Style—Some New Features Shown. Draped and pannier skirted gowns are being made in voiles, mahquisettes and mull for the coming summer, and are every bit as alluring in these fine soft goods as were the velvets and satins of winter. In the accompanying sketch is shown a white marquisette afternoon frock with quite a novel draped pannier skirt. The blouse is very simply made and has long sleeves cut in one with the waist. They are finished at the cuffs and up the opening with white net plaiting. The same

plaiting is used to trim the round neck, ending a small jabot in front. The blouse fronts surplice over each other below the bust line, and have the lower halves hand embroidered in English eyelet work. More embroidery appears on the upper part of the sleeves and around the foundation skirt. The tunic skirt is cut in two parts; the short straight one, which pouches a little above the knees in front and the longer cruved one in back extending from hip to hip. They are mounted at the waist line in even little plaits instead of gatherings, and are cut from straight lengths of the material. The novel feature of the costume is the rather odd arrangement of ttie pompadour flowered girdle of taffeta. Besides the length, which encircles the waist and ties in a flat bow in front, there are two ends, one on either side, which tuck in over the belt and form a border to the edge of the longer half of the skirt.
PACKING HINTS
See that the top of the talcum powder can is tightly clbsed. Take as few bottles as are needed and see that the necessary ones are well wrapped in soiled clothes, the kimono or some other soft material. Wrap shoes individually in soiled clothes or newspapers. This saves space. If there are framed pictures, plg&e them in the folds of a comfort or between pillows. If these are not available, skirts may be used. Place books flatly on the bottom of the trunk. Collars may be folded together in paper if a collar bag is not owned. Clean handkerchiefs should be placed between laundered clothes if a handkerchief box is not in the belongings. Posters or other papers to be preserved in smooth condition may be laid on the bottom of the trunk. The chafing dish may be made to hold trinkets, or, if the lid is not to be tied on, may afford space for a package. If the tray Is heavily packed, be sure that it is well supported.
Colored Shirtwaists,
Almost all the new shirtwaists include colors. Some are made even from the brightest lawns and crepes to be found. This is In marked contrast to the ready-made spring and summer waists of the past few years, which have been of all-white materials in preference to color. One of these new waists IM of deep rose color lawn tucked closely lengthwise. It has a vest of white lawn about three Inches wide, and the sleeves are long.
GRAY TO BE A FAVORITE
Spring Season Brings Back to Popularity a Color That Has Lately Been Passed Over. The spring season will bring again to favor the grays, which have been so much displaced in popularity by taupe, and gray of all shades, from the soft pearl tone to the “battleship gray" and the deeper color known formerly as “London smoke.” The second of these colors ,is much seen in the new leather handbags. Most 6f these are of pin seal, finished with the nickel rim and clasp, though some are made with solid silver finishing. With the nickel top and lined with gray moire, excellent bags are to be had in this seal. Each contains a small mirror and change purse. One very elegant bag is made of this gray seal, gathered at the top-into a triangular brass rim and clasp. The handle is of the leather ornamented with a silk tassel of matching hue. This bag is about twelve inches in depth; Pin seal envelope-shape bags in Niel rose may be had. These have the brass clasps. There is a good depth provided in almost all the new bags. Many are in the envelope form, though no one shape predominates. Fine feathers are more shown than the rough. The reticule is to be had in many materials, even in furs, but is not in actual use as much as fashion predicted. For the summer days it will be made of lawn, lined with white silk, and of Valenciennes lace. Some are already shown of lawn and Honiton lace, but these are coarse. On some of the square lawn and lace bags the handle is formed by twisting the white satin ribbon.
TYPES OF SEPARATE SKIRTS
Things Well to Remember, Since They Are to Be a Feature of the Toilette. Since combination suits, consisting of two materials, cwill be much worn for spring, a great variety of styles in separate skirts are being Aown. There are both draped md pleated skirts in large quantities. The more practical skirts have only a slight drapery, which comes well below the knees, thereby preserving the flat hip appearance. A few draped skirts with the new Oriental draperies caught up in the front are seen, but tiiey are rather extreme. There are many types of new pleated skirts, including cluster pleats, most of which are stitched or caught together by tape, so as to preserve the narrow appearance and still give the desired width to make them practicable for walking. A few gored skirts are seen, but in the majority of cases a few pleats are introduced. Buttons with simulated buttonholes or loops are the favored trimmings on separate skirts, the idea being to carry out the tailormade effect. The materials used are serges, whipcords, mixture#, checks and ratine weaves, the latter in plain colors in two-toned effects, stripes and brocades. Among the silk skirts are charmeuse, crepe meteor, crepe de chine and the new brocaded failles. Wash skirts are in the corded mar terials, such as piques, cordellnes, reps, etc., and in linens of the ramie weaves and washable pongees.
Oriental Slip.
Japanese, Chinese and Odalisque styles in boudoir wear are now 7 possessing the fancy of womankind, and for wear beneath the Oriental negligee there is a special Oriental combination garment of brassiere and petticoat. This is what the garment really is, though at first glance it appears to be a winding affair of fine fabric and lacy trimming with twists around the figure from shoulder to knee. There is just enough fit about the slip to make it confine the figure slightly so that a corset need not be worn beneath the negligee, while the effect is that of a supple, uncorseted figure.
FROM WOOD OF OLD SOAPBOX
Here is a simple bookshelf made from a soapbox; it calls for no outlay except the paint or enamel. The sides are as follows: Prepare two boards, 7 Inches wide, 23 Inches long, plane and sand-paper them smoothly. Seven inches from one end draw a line (as illustrated) 6 inches from the. other end draw a line. Measure 6 inches from Bto C. Join C and D and draw lines to the end. Saw out on these lines Ind plane smoothly. The shelves are 14 Inches long, the upper one 6 inches wide and the lower one 7 Inches wide. Nall or screw the two ends to the shelves. Enamel or paint the whole to suit your fancy.
For the Small Porch.
A useful form of the chaise lounge, or porch reclining chair of wicker, is In two sections, divided almost in the middle so two ch&lrs may be made when no one wishes to lounge, or when the porch Is filled with guests.

is a necessary adjunct in the appliance intended for use on railroads. He says: “Any new device which is a radical change from the regulation appliance which may be in use is always sure to excite comment, both favorable and unfavorable, and the result is that both lines of argument bring such a device prominently to the notice Of the general public. It is a well known fact that frequently unfavorable comment is productive of much good, as it very often brings to light some organic defect which may have been overlooked, and remedies and improveinents naturally suggest them-' selves to the inventor. In regard to the rail-joint, it may be said briefly that it is the result of many careful experiments, and Mr. Barnhill, the inventor, has submitted the results of his experiments to a number of eminent experts, all of whom agree tnat the problem of forming a perfect railjoint calculated to meet the growing demands of railway service has been completely solved. It has been tested and retested and improved until the present product appears to be a perfect article in this line of endeavor. It precludes the clicking of the rolling stock in transit, as well as the battering of the rail ends. The track is no more liable to spread than elsewhere. A low joint is impossible, as one rail can not- spring below the other. Fishplates, bolts and nuts are necessary. Reinforcements at the joints add strength where it is needed, and tfre laying of rails costs less than by some other methods. It is only necessary to raise the rails eight inches to lock or unlock, and in laying new track the rails can be laid upon their side and locked very easily, and then set over right side up. The use pf bent wires is no longer necessary where this rail-joint is used.”
Trains, Trainmen and Signals.
An eastern railroad has issued a special order insisting that signals when a train stops be carried back to the required distance: “Never mind about the engineer’s whistle calling you in.” But it would help toward the efficacy of the rule If the train crew were Instructed to allow the necessary time for taking the flag back. Trainmen hate being left afoot, and many accidents have been due to their hurry to get back to the train before It starts. This aversion is natural and will always be a source of temptation to negligence. Either there should be a special compensation sufficient to overcome this reluctance, or the train should always be held for the time which -experiment shows to be necessary to carry out the flagging rule to the letter.Springfield Republican.
Monocle In Use 100 Years.
The monocle, usually associated with the sterner although perhaps not less vain sex, has been worn for just a hundred years. The first person to screw a glass in his eye was, acpording to Sir Horace Rumbold, a Dutch exquisite, the Jonkheer Breele, whose monocle startled the diplomats assembled for the congress of Vienna. The fashion spread rapidly. In Dr. KltchIner’s "Economy of the Eyes," published nine years after the congress, he deplores the fact that “a single glass set in a smart ring Is often used by trinket fanciers merely for fashion's sake. These folk have not the least defect in their sight and are not aware of the mischievous consequences of such irritation."
Shadows of .Sound.
As there are shadows that Interfere with sight so also there are “shadows” that interfere with hearing. This fact Is well known to pilots., When, as in dense fogs, the boat is guided largely by the sense of hearing, thbre is a constant risk that these so-called “shadows” may cut off the sound of the fog horns. In certain cases the sound waves seem to “jump” like bounding balls. At the distance of a mile the sound is heard perfectly, at two miles it may be impossible to hear it, while a mile further on it may begin to be audible once more.—Harper’s Weekly.
Artist’s Work With Matches,
A French artist, M. Amiot, has lately exhibited a collection of articles made entirely from the ends of matches picked up in the streets of Paris, He weaves his material In a design, spreads the backs of the matches with gum and presses the whole firmly together. M. Amiot has made several vases in this way and an excellent model of a violin. In the latter, which has movable pegs and strings, there are no fewer than 1,500 matches.
