he idea of having a great expos!: tion held in Boston in 1920 in com- memoration of the landing of the Pfl- grims in 1620, is not belng met with warm favor in different parts of Mas- sachusetts or New England. There is a very general feeling provalent that the country has been expositioned to death, and that as a means of bleed- ing the government these great schemes should be held up. For near- Iy a generation the fever for exposi- tlons has been on, and one great fail- ure only ends to be followed by an- other in the works. They have been held in Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louls, Buffalo, Jamestown, Portland, Ore., and now one is about to open at Seattle. The New Bedford Standard, eferring to this movement, says: “Newspaper men are wearied by the flow of publicity which has continued with scarcely any cessation since the Chicago fair in 1893 began to be talked about. No soaner does a falr approach its end than the promoters of another begin to waste postage stamps In the attempt to interest editors in their project, And the remembrance is of a long continuance of dreary write- ups, ‘duplicated to no other paper in your town,’ punctuated here and there by the announcement that one more exposition management has gone into bankruptcy. That is the way in which the intimation of another exposition strikes the average editor in these and however much respect he have for the Pilgrim Fathers, he resents the prospects of being bored all the way between this time and 1920 with the manufactures of & new world's falr literary bureau.

HELP REPEAL THIS LAW. | There will be a hearing at Hartford at 2 p. m. today for t se of urging the repeal and oppc the amendment of a law which acted with referenc ture of electricity ? The law is as follows: “No person or corporation acting under authority from th eral assembly, shall in any unless exceeds 15,000, manufacture any electricity for the pu ing or power, but the section ehal] not prevent such manufacture for the pur- poses of the business, or for use of the mapufacturer, or for the sale thereof to tenants in the same pr ises whers it is manufactured.” The men In whose interests t was enacted ask now to strengthened by an amend prevent any citizen from buying elec- tricity from a neighbor or any one who can furnish it at a less price. The whole thing should be wiped off t beoks, Describing the effect of this law, Tt Courant savs: “At present, if John Smith owns severa) bulldings adjacent or nvithin the same city block, he c up an engine and dynamo and f the tenants of all of the bulldings with light and power. It Is nobody's busi- ness but theirs and his, if he does this. He cannot cross a street nor cross any other pers property | (without permission) unless ho gets a charter, but what he does with con- sent of all owners, especlally if h happens to own all the territory, he has a perfect right to do. It is con- | cetvable that the occupants of a c square may all want to get heat, and power from a central plant their own square. To do this it wo not be necessary to cross & high n object- | ing them be- | reference to this same law the aven Leader says “There is such a thing as grabbing | for more than you ought to bing for what belongs to else.” If you cannot go to Hartford, Senator Searls, chairman of the diclary committee, the repeal of this The constitutional rights of every citizen should be preserved. A FIGHT OVER THE TARIFF PROBABLE. Under the leadership of Senator Al- drich the Payne tariff bill has been | revised so that It is more unsatisfac- | tory than when it left the ho the protests in different parts of the country are so intense that they are | proving to be alarming to the mem- bers of the house. An exchange from the west, commenting upon the situ- atlon, says: “In spite of florld speech, in spite of the discovery and sensational elifh- ination of ‘Jokers' in the Payne bill, placed there through the cunning of manufacturers more than by the in- fluence of members of the house com- mittee on ways and means, the docu- ment was sent to the senate in a shape fairly satisfactory both to pro- tectlonists and the ‘for-revenue-only' advocates. But the members of the house have been home In the last two or three weeks. They have had op- portunity to study at first hand the opinions and the tempers of their con- stitutents. It fs reported- in Wash- ington that many representatives who have returned are extremely uneasy over their political prospects, They have learned things it least pleased them to learn and they are now gird- ing themselves to make their last fight for the schedules their districts desire in order to save their political lives. This can mean only that the confer- ence committee bill will not be passed without yanking and wrenching.” There is little doubt that there is going to be some excitement and a period of wrangling before the tarift bill 1s passed. Massachusetts feels that her interests are being utterly overlooked, and many other states are disturbed by the disregard shown to public opinion and local protests. The New York man whose wife knocked him down with a flatiron be- cause he contradicted her when she sald that Portugal was in South Amer- ‘tes. will not be so fresh again l | counterfeit notes The Courant does not think that it necessary to waste time in bothering over church and public properties bich are legally exempt, and will re- main so. It says: “Let's get at the Inequities and in- justices that the law does not permit, efore we get to work on what we w to be lawful and most of which know s established too firmly to e attacked.” A This is excellent counsel, and is ap- o the work of readjustment r it is being undertaken. The quality of taxation is apparent in v city in the state, and it is main- jutable to an old practice of e citizens off easy and hit- er citizens hard.

They know how to make things jingle as well as any organization on earth, anyhow. A Kansas City minister knows the difference between prohibition and temperance. He stands for the latter and says the former is intemperance, Since Abdul Hamid has over twen- ty millions deposited in his name and it cannot be recovered without it, he Hs pretty sure to have his head and hands preserved. .

More elaborate but equally becomung are the big silver flowers and the wreaths and garlands of sliver oak ieaves. Rhinestones or diamonds, when set in silver or platinum, are beautiful, but gold is almost always unsuccessful. Strawberry Fingers. The little sponge cakes, usually de- signated as “lady fingers,” are used for this dainty. These are divided and packed as full as the narrow pieces 1 hold with fresh strawberries.

White embroideries are wonderfullv becoming to elderly women with gray hair and are rapidly being appreciated by them. They are used as trimmings for morning house jackets and for fancy work aprons, with lower edges upturn- ed_to form deep pockets. Since womeri of all ages are again using caps, muslin embroideries have gained additional poularity. The narrow edgings are gathered In- to! frillings, with which to border the cap and the wide flouncings employed for the strings in lieu of ribdons. White Pineapgle Sherbert. Two large pineapples or one quart platter, but do not silce peel it as it is wasteful and much of the delicate fla- vor is lost by so doing. Slice the lem- on and orange thin. Place all in a deep bowl and sprinkle over it one . Set In a cool place for three or four hours to allow the julces to run. Then turn all into a cheese cloth bag and into a large pltcher. Add three pints of cold water and a cup of crushed ice. Stir well and serve. HINTS FOR WEARERS OF BLACK. Appropriate garments to lessen the depressing look of mourning in hot weather may be found in great va- | riety. Recruits from these ranks are volle, crepe de chine, moussiine de sole, nun's veiling, pongee, mull and lawn. India silk is peclally €ool and can for general wear. Though lace and embroidery are not permitted, straps of the material are considered quite correct. Ruches and turn-over collars and cuffs of lawn, SBwiss or organdy are the conventional relief to & mourning costume. But the chemisette of soft white 1fsse or mousseline de sofe is also en- tirely alowable. Dull et and dull silk passementeries ar‘e considered in good taste for trim- ming. Black ribbon is also used and is the ‘best selection for a gown to be worn by the young girl. Black pongee is an excellent mate- rial for a separate wrap and will prove serviceable. Embroidery Is the Rage. Its vogue Increases. Everything is embroidered. Darned effects continue in favor. The lovely Jap embroldery is very modish. The fine French style Is as good as ever. Eyelet embrodery will maintain its popularity. IN THE KITCHEN. For Boston Brown Bread.
