ISS JESSIE WOODROW WILSON, the second
daughter of the president, whoso engagement
to Francis Bowes Snyro of New York was re
cently announced, will bo tho thirteenth bride In
tho Whito Uouso when she Is married this fall. Thirteen
seems to bo tho lucky number of tho Wilson family.
Tresldont Wilson became the thirteenth president of
Princeton in his thirteenth year as a professor at tho university, and he be
came tho nation's chief executive in 1013. It is com
monly reported that tho president favors a seat in tho
thirteenth row at tho theater and in other ways fre
quently gives evidence of his penchant for the number
by many deemed to be unlucky.
Truston Beale, former United States minister to Per
sia and until recently chairman of the board of regents
of tho University of California, is one of the principal
movers In a project to establish an educational Institu
tion for tho training of college and university men in
politics and international affairs. Matters have pro
gressed so far that a site has boon chosen here near tho
Pan-American building, and a suitable building will bo by American Press
erected on It in tho near future. AVhen tho property is Association,
ready for occupancy it is proposed to turn It over with SIISS JESSIE wilson.
a suitable endowment fund to a corporation composed of tho presidents of n
number of universities. Congress is not to bo asked for a charter for the In
stitution, according to the plan, the promoters preferring that it should be
wholly unattached.

Senator need Smoot, who Is accounted one of the richest men in Utah aud
may some day be head of tho Mormon church, began life behind tho counter
of n general merchandise store In Provo, Utah. At eight
een he was made manager of the establishment. lie
saved a few hundred dollars and borrowed a few hun
dred more and invested tho money in sheep. After mak
ing a neat profit on tho investment J10 repaid the loan
and bought a drug store. From that point onward capi
tal flowed steadily toward his coffers. When elected
United States senator in 1000 ho was head of the .great
co-operative store which is a feature of tho Mormon
church in Salt Lake City. Senator Smoot is now Just
turned fifty, and as most of tho apostles, Who aro his
seniors on tho board that controls tho destinies of tho
Mormon church, aro also vastly his senior in years ho
stands an excellent chance of one day taking over the
reins of government of tho great organization founded
by Joseph Smith.
EEXATOIt HEED SMOOT t
Senor Manuel Quezon, delegate in congress from tho Philippines, is leaving
no stone unturned which will bring independence to his beloved Islands. Ite
cently ho said that "force alone" could keep them in subjection. Ho Is san
guine that somo action will be taken along these lines during tho present ad
ministration. Recently ho resigned from the Philippine society because he
believed It was tho "policy" of that organization to keep the islands In sub
jection. , .
Representative Barchfleld of Pittsburgh is an expert alienist and at one
time was an interne in an insane asylum.
Today's Short Story
Grand Rounds
WIIEN Dixon Tarr discovered his
mlno ho determined to work it
even if ho was in constant dan
ger from hostile Indians. Tarr had
taken all sorts of risks during his nd
venturous life, and when the mine had
proved its worth ho was not one to bo
deterred from working it by all tho
Indians in North America.
But when Tarr married a pretty
eastern girl aud Mrs. Tarr Insisted on
returning to tho mine with him lio en
deavored to dlssuado her. IJo told her
that tho danger was too great to be
Incurred by a woman. , Nevertheless
ho yielded to her pleadings and took
her with him.
Tarr'a mine was encircled by a
stockado provided with watchtowers
and properly loopholed, in each of
whfch a sentry was kept day and
night, whllo tho guard remained be
low. Mrs. Tarr was tho ouly one in tho
lnclosuro who was keenly nllvo to dan
ger. Sho soon noticed that the guard
had fallen into indolence through in
action, and a failure of their enemies
to show themselves had Induced a feel
ing of security.
Tarr, fascinated with his mine, fail
ed to realizo this, so Mrs. Tarr consti
tuted herself an officer of each aud
every day and night and went grand
rounds frequently. Ono night just
beforo daylight Tarr, sleeping soundly,
was awakened by a shot. IIo started
up and put out his hand to assuro
himself that his wifo was safe besido
him. Sho was not there. Springing
out of bed, ho jumped into his boots
and trousers, but had got on neither
when ho heard a number of scattered
reports. IIo rushed out to find In
dians Jumping over ono side of tho
stockado and down into tho inclosure.
A few of tho guard wero pointing
their rifles to rccelvo them, and tho
balance wero snatching theirs. From
ono of tho towers camo a rapid Arc,
which did tho principal damago that
was dono tho assailants.
It was all over In n few minutes.
Not more than a dozen Indians got
into the stockade, and thoy wero shot
down at onco. Tho guard mounted
tbo parapet to eeo a black mass of In
dians road to follow up tho advan
tage that had been derived by their
skirmishers. They wero too late. The
whites poured n volley into thcta, and,
seeing tho stockade manned, they dis
appeared In tho gloom.
"My wife! My wife! Where's my
wife?"
Tho cry came from Tarr. The ques
tion was not answered. Tho frightened
husband sent men everywhere within
the limited lnclosuro to seek her with
out avail.
"My God, sho has been carried off!
There has been treachery. They came
to take her from mo, knowing that it
would be a worse revenge than my
murder."
"Here sho is!" shouted a man who
had climbed to a sentry box.
Tarr climbed tho steps to see his wife
lying in a dead faint. A few min
utes before tlho had gono tho grand
rounds to find three sentries on one
side of tho stockado asleep and from
ono of tho towers could distinguish
Indian skirmishers within a hundred
feet of the stockade. Sho flred a sig
nal shot, killed a number of tho first
enemies to enter tho fort and then
when the light was over collapsed.
It was plain that tho life of every
man in the inclosure had boon saved
by a woman. Had sho not arrived on
tho sceno In the very nick of time the
advance of tho Indians would have
overpowered the guard and not a
white person would have escaped.
Mrs. Tarr was presented by those she
had saved with a handsome Jeweled
sword appropriately inscribed. Sho
had earned tho right to take her hus
band back with her, and this in a very
short tlmo she did.

IQUP
If a friend drops in to 5 o'clock tea
do not mako of It an opportunity to
serve refreshments elaborate enough
for a reception.
For n formal dinner party the Invi
tation is In written rather than in ver
bal form. Either a plain card of largo

graved in script is considered in good
taste. Tho names of the guests, tha
hour and date of tho function aro filled
in by hand.
There are two distinct styles of serv
ing a dinner English and Russian
The English style is tho usual meal
served at English, French and Amer
ican tables In families where but one
or two maids aro employed. The vi

THE HOME BEAUTIFUL
Charming Corner
For a Veranda
Elaborate Indeed aro the furnishings available for tho embellishment of
the summer veranda. Rood or willow furniture is tho favorite variety. Il
lustrated here Is a veranda fitted up as a summer sitting room. The ends of
the porch are filled in with glass and hung with stenciled curtains in white
and green. The wall In the back has been covered with burlap, but wicker
cabinets hide the lower part and are used to break tho monotony of tho rows
of flower stands which line the Inside of tho porch. Tho customary settee,
tablo and chairs aro utilized, but these are adorned with dainty stenciled cush
ions and scarfs.
Tho complexion should at all times
when ono is out of doors ho protected
from tho direct effect of sun and wind.
This docs not mean that powders,
creams and pastes should bo allowed
to stay on tho face during tho entire
day. Common sen so in such matters
must bo at tho root of tho uso of facial
cosmetics. If taking a long walk, play
ing tenuis or golf, etc., tho skin should
be thoroughly rubbed with a slmplo
cold cream and then dusted over with
6omo good powder. On entering tho
bouso remove tho cream and powder
and clcanso tho skin with somo
astringent lotion or n good toilet vino
gar. This will remove all grease.
Somo skins nro naturally so very
oily that tbo uso of cold cream as a
baso for powder is unnecessary; there
fore somo powder tbat will "stick" in
warm weather must bo used In Its
place. To find such a powder that Is
adhesive and yet harmless Is Indeed a
task. Many of tho articles on tho
market aro bad for the skin and con
tain minerals. Hero is a formula tbat
Is used in Franco. The powder is both
adhesive nnd harmless:
Puro oxido of zinc 1 ounce
Glycerin , 1 dram
Rosowater 4 ounce:
Essence of rose 15 drops
Sift tho zinc, dissolving it in Just
enough of tho rosowater to cover It;
then add tho glycerin, next tho re
mainder of the rosowater. Shako well
and apply with n soft spongo or n
pleco of antiseptic gauze. Tho face
must be well wiped off beforo tho liq
uid dries or it will U streaked.

Uso a whisk broom to brush the
fringo on napkins and towels beforo
ironing. It will look llko new.

In hot weather uso tho emery cushion
frequently. Passing tho needlo through
It removes molsturo and Insures an
easier manipulation.
H
If buttons tear away from a woolen
sweater or woolen fabric try sowing
them on with a small linen button on
tho wrong side. Pass tho needle
through both buttons at ono time.

Instead of binding or felling seams
pn Bummer lingerie uso laco Insertion,
ono piece on each sldo of tbo raw
edges. Stitch on both edges with the
Bowing machine.
As shown here tho blouse Is made of
chiffon over a gauze lining nnd lace is
arranged on this lining, but If some
thing simpler Is wnnted the laco and
lining both can be omitted and tho
blouso can bo made of any soft ma
terial. Tho yoke that extends down
over tho shoulder Is a feature. The
little round collar is dainty as well as
modish.
For tho medium size the blouso will
require three and a half yards of ma-
