Illinois Representative Introduces a Resolution Intimating That Roose velt Was Furnished Trains Free of Charge When President. I Washington, Dot-. 'M, Theodore Roosevelt's bills for transportation wore brought ollielally to the attention of the house by Representative Rnlney of Illinois. Mr. Raluey introducod a resolution providing for the appoint ment of a committee of Ave members of the house "for the purpose of In Tcstigatlng the railroad expenses In curred by Theodore Roosevelt while president of the United States." The spec ial committee Is directed by the resolution to ascertain the total "f all the transportation expenses Incur red by Mr. Hoosevelt and what part of it he paid. In connection with the resolution Mr. Ilainey sine out the following state inent: "I expucl to press this resolution and to Insist on a thorough Investigation. 3 remember that when Mr. ltoosevell was president he frequently made de mund on the railroads for special trains fur hunting trips and other jun kets. The trains always were fur nished. "The railroads could not afford to refuse a demand by the president. 1 have reason to believe that the bills contracted by the president were never paid. These expenses fell heaviest on the Pennsylvania Itallroad company. "There are 45,000 or fiO.000 stock holders In that company. It hns been charsed that transportation to the val ue of at least $100,000 was thus fur nished to Theodore Hoosevelt by till company. This bill ought to be paid. Somebody ought to pay It. The de mand for these trains and for supplies were always made by the president In his olhVkil capacity. If the govern ment is responsible an appropriation ought to be made to pay these bill". "If Mr. Hoosevelt Is responsible for the unpaid bills he ought to pay them At any rate, congress ought to have the facts In order to take such action as the situation may demand.' IN MRS.

Grant and niece of Mrs. Potter Palm er. Is visiting in this country. With her two handsome boys she arrived from Hussia recently, and it Is her In tention to show ler boys the famous battlegrounds where their great-grand father. General Ulyssus S. Grant, won his victories during the civil war. Tho little chaps are keenly interested in American history, and there is nc doubt that with their soldier grand father for a guide they will learn more of the history of the rebellion than they ever could from books. The princess, as may be gleaned from her picture. Is just as charming and girlish looking as a matron as she was as the pretty Miss Julia Grant. Business Opening, Girls who want to begin sewing ns o business can always find demand.): well made shirt waists. The fancy blouse and the plain shirt are an excellent entering wedge lnt the professional world of dressmaking. Most young women who have made their own shirt waists successful . have at any rate more originality m the matter of varying the plaits and ol nice little touches of trimming than the overbusy dressmaker, who "doesn ' bother with shirts," except to kep a customer. There are girls' clubs In almost ev ery village and city, nnd a card or a dozen cards 10ft there will usually bring all the customers a novice will care to contend with. Nobody shall say to what height the beginner may aspire, but certain It is that she who is willing to commence in a modest way on Inexpensive mate rials and with little outstanding inon ey will the sooner reach a height. She will never regret the early days when she was, by a less ostentatious begin ning, enabled to study the customer and business detail in general. It Can Be Made of Odds and Ends. If you wnnt to be in the swirl of fashion make yourself n turban nnd muff set like the one illustrated. You can easily accomplish the task with pieces of velvet nnd fur from your milliner's scrap box. For the muff, which is of puffed velvet shirred ver tically, quite a large piece of velvet TDUIIAN JLHV MUFF HETOl'SIIiK AND VUlt will be necessary, as the muff Is of, i generous size. The puffed crown of the turban Is of tho samo velvet, nnd both turban and muff are edged with fur. The set pictured is of berry toned velvet nnd smoked fox fur, but a combination of silk nnd velvet would be almost as effective. There Is a fad this season for these fabric and fur muff and turban sets. III-' hO0KHOKHOH040Kn along L'!C-l-C-IOIH-0CHI-CHHt-C-IG:- Go up to your attic, look tibout your house and see how many things are lying round that you can not only dispense with, but which are also really in your way, that would brine a moasuro of comfort and bappiucsR to others lose fortunate than yourself, writes Orison Sweet Harden In Suc cess Mngazlne. Look over your old clothing und pick out the articles that you v. ill never wear again, but which wo'ild prove a real godsend to- somo poor girls out of employment or who have so many depending upon them th t they cannot afford to buy nc--e '.ry clothing for themselves. Do not kc;p thoso things until they become vo ices, thinking you may need them sometime. Let them do good now. while it is possible. Perhaps you have a number of protty but useless old Christ.- presents which you have been koe.)- ing for years, merely out of a feolins of sentiment. Why not mnke somo poor children who, perhaps, never had had a Christmas present, happy with those things? They made you very happy'oncc, and they will do so again, when you know that they are making this Christmas brighter and happier for others. Look over your books. Pick out the duplicates, or the paper covered ones that you have read, , and give them away where they will bo aprre ciatcd. There are probably books in your library, or lying around the house, which no one has looked l-io for years, or will read for years to come, which would bo of inestimablo value to boys nnd girls who arc try ing to educate themselves unrer great difficulties. Pass them on. The more you give away the more you will have and enjoy. The habit of stingi ness strangles happiness; the habit of giving multiplies it. Perhaps you have damaged or old pieces of furniture stowed away In tho attic which would add greatly to the comfort and brightness of bomo poor home. Go over your china closet and see how many odd or chipped and discolored dishes are lying there 'unused which would fill an embarrassing want in many a poverty-stricken home. When the fit of generosity comos over you as Chrlsumai time ap proaches, whan you fel your heart softening with human sympathy, go about the house nnd pick up every thing you do not need and send them nwvy on their mission of love while !tho impulse is upon you. Do not lot selfishness and stinginess try to con vince you that, you would bettor keep them, that you may find sone Use for thctn in the future. Your im pulse to do good 1b a divine inspira tion. Beware how you smother it, or let it pass by. Xmas Xamples. A llttlo mistiotoo is a dangerous thing. Pcoplo who live in flat houses shouldn't expect Christmas trees. It's a wise boy who knows his own Santa Claus. Tho Christmas shopper and her al lowance aro soon parted. A pretty girl is known by the mistletoe sho hangs up. All's not gold that you got for Christmas. A present in the stocking is worth two in tho -shop window. There's many a slip 'twlxt the mistletoe and the Up.
