'KJOW Is tne day when the neodleA^l woman finds her craftsmanship ■t ■ premium In many directions, anti pap+rlally In the direction of lingerie. Mann sewing is fashionable. Garments iksn^made may be no prettier than •tbars machine made, but they out•laae their rivals and there is no denying It, for they are considerably more expensive. Women who have Ike time to sew can afford the luxury of handwork and be economical at the same time. When one must tiave now underthlngs It Is cheaper to buy tho materials and make them than to buy them ready made even though the sewing is nil machine work. One of the new season's step-ins Is gbowu in the illustration. It is made of crepe de chine with a panel down the front and back outlined by a narrew beading. This allows the Introductlon of baby ribbon threaded ttirough the heading. Rows of val lace frtlla make an enchanting decoration about the lower part of the gar•aent and appear on the camisole por-

NO ONE IN WASHINGTON REALLY THINKS HE WAS GUILTY OF WORSE THAN NEGLECT.
By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—Edwin Denby, secretary of the navy, declined to resign from the cabinet while lie was in any way under fire because apparently resignation would have been taken as an acknowledgment that he had done something wrong in connection with the Teapot Dome and California oil
leases.
Some of the senators seemingly strove to make it appear that the secretary was worse than neglectful of duty in the case, but one Judges from what he hears that no one in official life here actually believes that tills cabinet officer was dishonest even in
Intention.
It seems to be believed here that the secretary, If he was guilty of anything in connection with the oil lenses, simply was guilty of taking too much for grunted and perhaps not being alert enough to his duties in the case. It Is a curious thing that Edwin Denby has been connected with three matters which have stirred congress to Investigation since he entered into public life, three matters which In a way were akin. In neither of the first two affairs in which he had a some- j what prominent part was there ever , any suspicion of wrongdoing.

and of nothing else.

Why Roosevelt Was "Spanked."
It was along about 1907 when Theodore Roosevelt suggested that the secret service of the United States should be given an increased appropriation. Congress demurred, and from the house came charges that secret service men were being nsed “te trail congressmen and to watch wbat they were doing.” Kow the duties of the secret service of the Treasury department are to detect counterfeiting and to guard the person of the presi-
dent ef the United States.
Just at Jhat time there was suspicion that some representative* in congress were trying to get slices of the public donaala for person*] and private exploitation. Theodore Rooeevelt sent to congress an anufdng and perhaps eve* astounding ineeomge. He sold In effect that if any members of the house were afraid of being watched, they might put into the bill appropriating the extra money for the secret service a provision that “none of the money hereby provided is to lie used to pay men for watching congressmen." Then the thunderings began and the lightnings played. The spanking committee was appointed, the resolutions were adopted and Theodore Roosevelt duly was spanked, Edwin Denby being the spanker-in-
ch I ef.
President Roosevelt always liked Denby who, as probably the world
knows, Is by went to
