Large Cities Show a Healthy Growth Q£ LfrADER TOP? SOME TIME: TO / y WASHINGTON.—'The census re *» turns on the large cities of the country are now complete. The fig ures show that most of them have had a healthy growth during the ten years since the last count was made, but some of them have fallen out of the places they occupied then and their places have been taken by other cities. Of the many that have tried, In the past ten years, to climb into the 100,000 class, only five have succeeded. Among the ten largest cities there has been only one important change of position. Baltimore has lost sixth place to Cleveland. Baltimore's popu lation, as officially stated. Is 558,485, while Cleveland has 560,663. The gain in Baltimore over 1900 was 9.7 per cent. A comparison of 29 cities in the 100,000 class shows that the aggre gate population la 13,596,819, as against 10,376,012 in 1900 and 7,904,140 In 1890. The fact is noted that the high rate of increase is not confined to any one I Uncle Sam's Health Zone Far Spread THE activities of the public health and marine hospital service, to which is intrusted most of the g« neral work of guarding the country against contagion from abroad and preventing Its spread at home, form the topic of a paper by Surgeon General Wyman in the public health report. The document was prepared for the American Public Health association which recently met at Milwaukee. This organization is composed of rep resentatives from Canada, Mexico and Cuba, as well as from the United States, and the paper was regarded as of especial interest to them. Beginning with "the utmost circum ference of the influence of the organ ization." Doctor Wyman tells of the protective measures at foreign ports. He shows that medical officers of the bureau are located in most of the sea coast cities of Asia and South and Central America, and at some of those of Europe. The service also Is liber ally represented in Hawaii, Porto Rico and the Philippines.

Of c'.tica whose rate exceeded 40 per cent., two, Newark, N. J., and Bridgeport, Conn., are eastern, one, Atlanta, is southern, and four, Detroit, Denver, Kansas City and Columbus, are western. Of the two cities with the lowest rate, one is eastern and the other is western. The rates of increase for Atlanta, Detroit, Denver and Kansas City are phenomenally high, but most extraor dinary is the high percentage for New York, which exceeds the average of 28 citie3 by 11.4 per cent., and is it self exceeded only by the rates of seven cities. Fifty-four cities of between 25,000 and 100,000 show an aggregate popu lation of 2,723,498, as against 1,901,766 in 1900, a gain of 43.2 per cent., which the census bureau pronounces "phe nomenally high." Thirty-one of these cities show a higher rate of increase for the past decade than for the previ ous one. No decrease is noted in any one of the cities. Of the larger cities the gain of St. Louis during the decade was greater proportionately than that of Boston, its nearest competitor, while Kansas City is in twentieth place on the face of the returns. Kansas City has jumped ahead of Providence, R. 1., and Indianapolis, Ind., Providence falling behind Indianapolis, which it led in 1 1900. In addition to keeping themselves and the home office informed regard ing the prevalence of cholera, yellow fever, smallpox, typhus and plague, these officials are required to inspect American bound vessels and to issue bills of health, without which the ves sels might not enter American ports. During the last fiscal year they in spected 16,760 vessels and examined 1,433,134 passengers. On board ship the regulations of these officials fol low the immigrant, requiring proper cleanliness and ventilation, and when the vessel arrives in the United States it is mot by another set of health service officers on duty either to en force quarantine rules or to assist j the immigration officials in their work. In the latter capacity the public health men last year examined 1,280,- 000 immigrants, certifying 30,000 of them as defective either mentally or physically. The paper also abounds in facts relative to the work of the bureau In i preventing the spread of Infectious diseases from one state to another un der the quarantine law, making espe cial reference to the work in connec tion with recent yellow-fever epidem ics and the plague infection on the Pacific coast of a few years ago. The maintenance of the service costs t! e United States $2,000,000 an nually. l nor Hughes and commending the wis dom of the president In choosing Hughes for the supreme court bench. The keynote of the Indiana cam paign was sounded by Senator Ileve ridge in a speech at Indianapolis. He was merciless to the Interests, which he says have been controlling legisla tion for years. He defied the cor porate interests to pollute the voters tif Indiana. He favored the revision of the tariff by a genuine tariff com mission. He gave Roosevelt credit for inaugurating tin- conservation move ment. Mayor J. ('.

NOTHING Is prettier in ribbon ar rangements than a bow and ends in simple or in elaborate designs. But one may not always arrive at the desired effect by the use of bows. A shape may be modified or changed in appearance by building it in one direction or another with ribbon ar ranged in loops. Flower forms may be copied or simulated, and nothing is more fashionable than mall, com pact roses and foliage made of rib bon. These examples are given here of ribbon in unusual arrangements. In the first a cap-like shape covered with big velvet poppies is lengthened at the back with wired loops of heavy satin ribbon. These bows redeem the shape, lifting it from the common ! place into one of those which the French have described as "the fleeting profile" shapes. They are full of GiP.L'S OUTING COSTUME . \\/ff m \ Jit fl 1 I l M \\- I II - , i ITT 1 -jajiin ( hi Ti i pi«::ty ' mil' dt-lgn«-d c -pe t-'nily foi boatltig or galling, i of white lilK-li tri: :ill' .1 with lathlls of blue Ullit white btri|» il 11ii ii Tin* skirt in math with a group of pluita ui such did' 1 above which ii is ornamented with ' I button*. ami I* encircled about knee birb, »iih an Inserted Land of the j *trip< d linen I 111 bltltl**' lllln U bill !!»<•• plastron , of tit' material ornamented with but luiD.

The loops in this instance are made overloops of boned wire sewed to the shape at the back. A pretty drooping brimmed round hat, having the brim edge finished with a shirring of velvet, shows plait ings of ribbon and velvet bows poised together about the round crown. This forms a sort of rosette, in which the plaited ribbon sets, and the result makes one thing of a flower. In fact, each velvet and ribbon decoration ia much like a huge pansy in shape. The pretty hat, which Is of king's blue felt, needs no other decoration. A hat for a miss faced with change able taffeta gathered in the under brim, is bound with a puff of velvet. A collar of ribbon about the crown is finished with a very full plaiting or shirring of ribbon at the left front. Such a hat is ideal for a miss of 16 or more years, and is quite within the | range of amateur millinery to make. JEWELS FOR DAY AND NIGHT Precious and Semi-Precious Stones Very Much in Evidence on All Occasions. With low-cut necks narrow velvet collars set with three or five gradu ated ornaments of paste set in old sil vered metal are smart and becoming with both afternoon and evening gowns. Karrings do much to break the line of a long neck with a collarless gown. Lovely new ones are shown in Paris ian diamonds, colored stones and ba roque pearls. A good looking set of earrings has a bowknot and dangler of diamonds with baroque drop; another set that screws on has three baroque pearls, one above the other, connected by jeweled chains with amethyst drops. A shield-shaped corsage ornament of Parisian diamonds and French em eralds, with a shoulder catch to cor respond, gives a. brilliant finish to a low-neckeil evening gown The woman of bony neck should purchase one of the high dog col lars of rows of seed pearls crossed by narrow side bars and a square cen tral bar of Parisian diamonds. For traveling or sports the watch bracelet is growing in favor. One of the new ones has a flexible woven strap and buckle of gold wire set with i rid enamel watch studded in peurls. On a gray suede wrist strap Is a small watch of gold rims studded | with alternate rubles and pearls or ' lapphin a and pearls. Cheaper for bald wear are tan or gray suede I bran lat with a smart open-faced gold ] i or silver watch. \ liisi lnating ornament of French ] I. welry that can be used for the hair i or corsage is a pair of Mercury wings • t to form a hollow that can euclrcla he hair knot.

Small Cakes for Various Occasions. The following recipes are appropri ate to swve with frozen dishes or with tea or chocolate. Many delicious little cakes and cookies may be bought; but no matter how ttractlve they are, one, likes the "touch of Indi viduality which is shown In cakes of home manufacture: Chocolate Nut Cake. —Cream three fourths of a cupful of butter, add one and a half cupfuls of sugar gradually, then alternate a half cupful of milk with two and a quarter cups of flour sifted with three teaspoonfuls of ba king powder several times to lnsuro a thorough mixing, then add three squares of grated chocolate, a cupful of broken pecan meats, a teaspoonful of vanilla and the whites of eight eggs beaten stiff. A little salt is an Im provement. Bake in gem pans about twenty minutes. Bachelor's Buttons.—Rub together four tablespoonfuls of butter and ten tablespoonfuls of flour. Add five ta blespoonfuls of Bugar to the flour mix ture and five to two well-beaten eggs, flavor with anise and combine the two mixtures. Make In small balls and bake. Dip In melted rondant and sprinkle with nuts. Fondant.—This is the foundation for French candies and 1b used for cake frostings. Use four cupfuls of sugar, one cup of water and a table spoonful of glucose. 801 l until a little dropped in water will make a soft, waxy ball. Cool and stir until white and creamy. It will keep for weeks and always be fresh for use by heat ing over hot water. Keep the fondant In a dish covered with a waxed paper and tightly covered, or it will dry and crumble. Orange Cakes. —Cream a quarter of a cupful of butter, add a half cupful of sugar gradually, the grated rind of an orange and a tablespoonful of the Juice, the yolks of two eggs well beat en. Sift one and two-thirds cups of flour and half a teaspoonful of cream of tartar and a quarter of a teaspoon ful of soda, a pinch of salt. Fold In the whites of two eggs beaten stiff. Bake In patty tins and Ice with frost ing flavored with orange juice. Wafers. —Cream a half cup of butter, add a cup of powdered sugar and a cup and three-fourths of flour, a little salt and a teaspoonful of vanlllk and a half cup of milk. Bake on a baking sheet and cut in squares. Roll imme diately, before they harden. T 18 bad enough for an at- ! tractive young miss to bo un able to make a loaf of bread, j or broil a steak, or use a needle; but the j limit Is passed when a college makes her i such a little idiot as to think It smart to j boast of It." Similar remarks we hear every day, blaming the college education for the foolishness of a few. When we are looking for results from college train ing let us take the average girl, to be j fair. A man who Is Belling apples does not show the worst he has In stock, but the best. It Is true we meet women occasion- J ally who consider a lack of knowledge of household affairs something to boast of, but let us bo thankful that they are rare, and they mako them- | selves a laughing stock among good j people. It takes brains to run a house and ; provide for a family and the woman j who does the former Is ns much a ; 1 business partner of the one who does ! the latter as the business partner j down town. Egg Plant. Egg plant is such n pretty vegetnble I to look at, that it always attracts the ; eye In the market windows. It Is not ' as commonly used as It should he, nor j is it widely grown In our climate.
