Prepnrations Completed for the Quarterly Mecting of the Federation. The District Federation of Women's Clubs is making preparations for its quar- terly meeting, to be held next Thursday af- ternoon and evening in the lecture room of All Souls’ Church. The afternoon will be devoted to the reports of the presidents of the ten clubs now. belonging to the tedera- tion and to an infermal talk by Mrs. Ellen S. Mussey explaining the present laws af- fecting the legal status of women in the District ani presenting the laws as propos- ed by the committee appointed by the fed- eration for this purpose. The evening will be devoted to addresses upon the same sub- ject, music, an original poem and a formel repert of the committee on revision of laws affecting women. This matter has been ex- citing extensive discussion in the different women’s clubs of the city and were it not so lamentable it would be very ludicrous to note the astonished and disgusted looks of the members when they learn that the bon- nets they wear belong to their husbands and they themselves have absolutely no legal claim to them; end the look of horror when they are at last convinced that the District laws would uphold their husbands in giving or willing absolutely away from them the children they have borne and reared. These are a few of the many laws under discussion, and it fs expected that the lecture room will be crowded with women anxious to know if they have any rights which men are bound to respect. agen Mail Car Time Card. ‘A neat time schedule for the little white mail car on Pennsylvania avenue has been prepared by Superintendent Vickery. of the railway mail service. To those who make frequent use of the car it is well worth hay- ing. It gives the complete and accurate itinerary of each of the thirteen round trips daily. To people who sometimes wait for street cars, and think they run regardless of time, it would be a surprise to see how close- ly on time the mail car passes each station and stopping place on the route. : ——.— The Philadelphia Investigation. Mayor Warwick of Philadelphia has is- sued a public statement, in which he de- nounces the senate investigating commit- tee’s method of taking testimony as being in order. The use of Dr. Siegert’s Angostura Bitters ca- cites the appetite and keeps the digestive organs unjust and un-American. He intimates that factional politics enters largely into the investigation.

They will appeal to your love of novelty—aad quality. - They will impress you as unusually good for the prices. we have put on them. That is one of our pecu- liarities.
