Banting the Dog.
The woman who aa strolling up
Fifth avenue paused in front ot a
smart little shop and looked at a
small article displayed in the window
and labeled, "Dog Sweater." It was
handsomely and elaborately croch
etted and evidently was expensive.
Not being the owner ot a dog, and
ibeing fairW unintelligent on such
'Subjects, the woman sought inside in
formation. I, "Those," advised the pretty little
" 'saleswoman, "are to be worn by pet
dogs, in place of blankets, you know.
Also, they are useful when it is nec
essary to bant doggie."
"Te bant doggie?" murmured the
Ignorant one faintly.
"Yes. You know pet dogs are like
ly to be overfed and to grow fat and
lazy. Then they have to bo banted,
Just like peoplo."
"As! I suppose some one has to
take them out for this exercise?"
"Oh, certainly. Usually that falls
to the lot of the maid or some other
servant.".'
"But suppose the servant should
not wish to be incidentally banted?"
"Oh, well, of course, madam would
have to settle that with the servant.
Or she might even beNvilllng to take
doggie out herself. Many women are
glad of almost any excuse nowadays
(for training down and keeping them
seleves as slim as possible." New
York Press.

Women as Jurors.
A phase of woman's suffrage which
nas been given little publicity was dis
cussed by Miss Marguerite De Forest
Anderson, the celebrated woman com
poser, to the New York Telegram.

"Whether women get the right to
vote or not," said Miss De' Forest
Anderson, "I believe they should be
called upon to do Jury duty. By this
I mean that when a woman is vitally
Interested In a court case, whether It
be civil or criminal. It should be de
cided by a jury which comprises an
equal number of men and women.
Women alone can understand wom
en, and many unjust verdicts would
be avoided if women were permitted
to serve on juries. Of course the
women picked for Jury duty should
not be of the butterfly type. They
should, instead, be intelligent women
who have had the benefit of an edu
cation.
"As far as woman suffrage Itself is
concerned, I do not believe the wom
en will make much progress until
they adopt womanly and conservative
tactics. A good, true, womanly worn
an can get anything she desires.
When the so-called suffragettes come
to realize this they will modify their
tactics, and then their chances for
success will be greater. Until that
time, however, I think the success of
the cause is more or less hopeless, for
men will not be forced to do any
thing. They prefer to be coaxed. The
women who should vote are the wom
en who pay taxes. Strangely enough,
though, they as yet have remained in
the background. But when they do
enter the lists, mark my words, some
thing is going to happen."
Etiquette For the Visitor.
It is difficult to lay down hard and
fast rules for the stranger who visits
In another's homo. Customs differ
not only in different social sets, but
even in various families lu the same
circle. '
The matter of tipping, tor Instance,
Is a troublesome problem for a girl
or woman. Shall I tip? Whom shall
I tip? How much shall I give? She
does not know and has no one from
whom she can seek information with
out embarrassment.
Tipping is much more customary In
this country than it was a few years
ago, and as a rule it is safe to give a
moderate fee to nny servant with
whom you have come in contact.
In the average country house this
will mean the waitress, the upstairs
girl who attends to vour room and
who may have done you small favors,
such as buttoning your frock, and the
coachman who drives you to and from
the station.
It is not necessary to go around to
every servant on the place when many
are kept. Some hosts object stren
uously to a tip and forbid their ser
vants to accept any. This position, if
known, must be respected. Generally
your hostess will let you know In a
quiet way how she feels on the sub
ject. How much to give depends upon
how much one can afford. It is fool
ish from false pride to cripple one's
self by gifts or stay at home from a
visit because you cannot afford to
tip. Both maids and hostess usually
know your financial status, and the
latter would only be worried by ex
travagant tipping.
It you have made demands upon
the time of a maid, such as asking
her to press a dress for you, she
should be quietly given something for
her trouble at the time. You would
have to pay an outsider for such
work, and have no right to expect It
as a favor.
If at all possible do not get into the
way of expecting your friends' maids
to do such things for you. Hunt up
a laundress, or, if you can do your
own pressing, ask your hostess when
it will be convenient for you to go
into the laundry to do a little fresh
ening up to your clothes. It she In
sists on having It done for you, ac
cept, as Bhe may prefer It to your
presence In her kitchen.
Make It a rule, whenever possible,
to pay for your baggage on the train.
This saves embarrassment later. In
the country where you must be met it
Is out of .the question, but try to be
present to fee the men who carrv vour
irunK to your room.
Never fee ostentatiously. It Is the
height of bad taste. A Inn fin nnr frof

New York City. The shirt waist
that is closed at the left of the front
and made with a single revers is one
of the latest and smartest. It will be
greatly in vogue throughout the com
ing season, and it is equally appro-
MkJ
pilule for the odd waist and tor the
gown. Linen is the material Illus
trated, but such waists will be made
from all wnlstlng mnterlnls, silk nnd
wool as well ns linen and cotton,
while the design is equnlly appro
priate for any simple dress made in
shirt waist style, for cashmere and
other materials of the season. The
tutiks are exceptionally becoming nnd
the plain centre front with the revers
gives a distinctively novel effect.
The waist is made with fronts and
bnck. The back is tucked at the cen
tre. The fronts combine full length
tucks with those that are stitched to
yoke depth and are just becomingly
full. The right front Is faced nnd
turned bnck to form the revers and
pretty buttons, are used ns trimming.
The sleeves are In regulation shirt
waist style, finished with straight
cuffs.
The quantity of matrrlal required
for the medium size Is four yards
twenty-four, three and three-eighth
yards thirty-two or two and one
eighth yards forty-four Inches wide.
Paris Chapeaux.
Millinery remains at an Inflated
cost compared with that of frocks.
Hats with aigrettes average from $60
to $80 each, while a model bunched
with field flowers or roses costs $20
to $40. On one hat fifty-two roses
vera counted, and on another sixteen
ostrich feathers towered high.
Polonaise Fashionable. '
The polonaise is a growing fashion,
and it is promised that a good many
will be seen this season.
Ilox I'lcuted Skirt.
Every variationof the pleated skirt
Is to be found In the incoming styles,
but the one that gives a suggestion
of the yoke utilized in one way or
another Is a pronounced favorite. This
model Is so arranged as to provide
unbroken lines at the front and the
back when used with the yoke, and it
allows a choice of such treatment or
of the plain hot pleated skirt. In the
illustration one of the novelty suit
Ings is finished with sittching, the
color being the bronze which prom
ises to be such a favorite. Almost all
suitings and all skirting materials are
appropriate, however, as the skirt
will be found Just ns well adapted to
cashmere and similar materials of
indoor wear as It is to the heavier
suitings. It is made in walking
length, and whether the yoke Is used
or not is stitched flat over the hips,
doing away with all bulk at that
point.
The skirt is made in six gores, but
the seams are all concealed by the
pleats. When the yoke is used, it is
arranged over the side portions and
Its ends are concealed by the front
and buck pleats. The closing is made
Invisibly at the left of the back.
-The quantity cf material required
for the medium site is ten and one
half yards twenty-four, nine and one
quarter yards twenty-seven, six and
three-quarter yards forty-four or
fifty-two inches wide. The width of
skirt at low edge 't three and three
quarter yards. .
New Turbans.
Stiff little turbans in purple, with
large black wings, are stylish, and
are worn as frequently with suits ot
navy blue as with black.

S A DECADE OF AMERICAN 5
: railways. :
The American - railroad system
changes while you wait. You can see
it grow. A decade ago the railways
received only a billion and a quarter
dollars from the patient people, hard
ly more than our annual National ex
penditure. Now they receive with
fewer thanks two and a half bil
lions. Then the passenger traffic
amounted to only 13.3 billions ot
miles for one passenger; now it
amounts to 29.5 billions of miles.
In other words. If one passenger were
carried each week day from Des
.Moines, Iowa, to the sun, his journey
ing would fairly represent the dis
tance dally traveled by passengers on
American railroads. .
Our freight traffic, too, Is bigger.
In one year we carried a billion tons
of freight an average ot two hundred
and forty, miles each. If each man,
woman and child in this country
hauled each day five hundred pounds
of freight a distance of thirty-two
miles, they would not accomplish in
the year the vast amount of carrying
that the railroads perform.
The next ten years will show still
greater progress. Many railroads
will be rebuilt; others will bo electri
fied. New roadbeds, new tracks, new
stations, stronger locomotives, bigger
and better cars all of these are In
the estimates of the next decade.
And If the people stay awake and de
mand their rights, the whole vast en
gine of progress will be equitably and
efficiently administered in the inter
est, not of stock jobbers, but of in
vestors, employes, passengers and
shippers. Success Magazine.

Some American sailors who had
been indulging in liberal potations
and had had rows with some ot the
many bad characters ot Naples were
conducted by the police to the Cen
tral police station yesterday.
Tired of waiting in the courtyard,
two of them noticed a column leading
to an upper story, and climbed it like
monkeys, while the astonished police
ordered them to descend. Arrived at
the upper story, the sailors climbed
the balustrade and entered the town
hall amid the lively curiosity of ush
ers, clerks and porters. Then they
leisurely passed . through the halls,
and at last descended the central
staircase, where they found their way,
to thd street.
In a few minutes they sauntered
back into the courtyard, to the fur
ther surprise of the guard. All were
then marched off to the police magis
trate, who on hearing of the adven
ture and seeing the laughing faces of
the sailors, liberated the whole batch.
The sailors gayly thanked him, and
the whole crowd went back to the
ship thoroughly amused. Naples

The dachshund is the favorite dog
!n Germany, and a very useful and
pleasant companion he seems to be.
The English bulldog is a good second
in popularity, and the nearer he is to
our standard points the better he if
liked. The fox terrier varies a gooj
deal In size and marking, and is evi
dently not so well known in Germany
as he deserves to be.

their little Poms and their King
Charleses as are their Knglish sisters

Some few dogs, in the streets are

New York. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow
says:
"The Industrial and commercial sit
uation as a whole at the beginning of
the last quarter of the year is that of
a full return to normal conditions. Tha
Southern trade, it is reported. Is bet
ter than for several seasons past. The
chief flaw In the situation is to be
found in the high prices, which serve
to check operations in some directions
and are a conservative Influence.
"Business in steel rails Is expanding
and much activity is expected In this
division next year, as the-railroads are
covering future requirements freely.
In addition to the demand for 'domestic
consumption, the leading producer
has received a contract for 12,000 tons
for export to Mexico. The rapid ad
vance in pig iron prices has caused
many buyers to restrict their purcha
ses, althouqh a heavy business contin
ues In some districts, notably at Pitts
burg and New York."
Bradstreet's say: "With the advent
of cooler fall weather this week an
Important bar to fullest traa devel
opment has been removed ana final
distribution has been enlarged. Rail
way traffic is expanding and Idle ears
have about disappeared from the Hst,
as the crop, industrial and general
