She ought to stay at home and raise babies.” The average business or profes sional woman no doubt, would pre fer to stay at homo and raise babies, provided, of course ,she could do so as the wife of some deserving man and desirable husband. But, accord ing to statistics, there arn’t enough men to go around, not even In cluding the undeserving and untfo- sirable. Thus It is that women who were not taught to be self-sustain ing and who feel unable to cope with men in the business world, too often consent to become the wives of dissolute men and the mothers of Inferior children. And the fact that the most immoral man has always been able to marry some good woman, has not helped to create a higher standard of morality In men. If women were taught to be self- sustaining and allowed to follow their Inclinations In the matter of earning a living, with fair compensa tion for their work, there would be fewer unhappy marriages and a notable improvement in the morale of both men and women. Moreover, the men who are opposed to women practicing law or competing with men in any of tho professions, should The people who say so much about our lax divorce laws say lit tle or nothing about our lax mar riage laws and the ministers and magistrates who Join togeher boys and girls of Immature minds and bodies, or worse still, youth with old age, run-away couples and ac quaintances of a week, a day or an hour. Fqw reformers attack the roots of evil, but employ their time in frantically lopping of branches. Their intentions are good but their mode of procedure is very bad. ***************** ♦ ♦ * FADS AND FASHIONS. * ***************** At this time of the year the selec tion of a suitable outfit for the sum mer outing is a matter of serious consideration. The best choice de pends In a great measure upon the place where one intends to spend the summer months. A fashionable seashore demands a different outfit from that which would be suitable for a more popular resort and, course, the same may be said as to the requirements m mountain aorta and In lake resorts. White serge Is an excellent ma terial for shore resorts or yachting and women whose summer plans in clude a sojourn on the eea shore will find it almost indispensable to provide themselves with one or two frocks of lightweight serrgo In white or in stripes of black upon a white ground. These frocks can easily be made at home or can be purchased for very little at the shops. The white silk serge, which Is found In many qualities In the fash ionable shops, may be made up on severely tailored lines or in dr< semi-tailored fashion, and a little heavy lace, Irish or filet by prefer ence, is often used as trimmings, appearing in the shape of a big col lar If in nothing else. Embroidered muslin may be used as a collar in place of the lace, and occasionally a model shows a collar of hemstitch ed chiffon In black or blight color, failing over a collar of the silk or a collar of striped silk in black and whit© or white and color. On the white serge frocks and coat B similar collars and trimming Ideas are exploited and plain one- tone satin In black or bright color Is^also used for relieving touches. An exceedingly chic little coat and frock costume of fine white serge falling low over a skirt band of black satin and black satin was also used for the collar, cuffs and sash belt of the Jaunty short coat, as well as for the buttons of the costume. Another modish white serge had big revers of hemstitched purplo chiffon draped across the front of the coat from the right shoulder to the left side of the high waist line. Big buttons were embroidered a purple cordellere defined the waits. But the best looking of the white serges and white black stripe wool ens are the more simply tailored models with color Introduced, but lightly If used at all. Some French models are stitched In silk of bright colors and have touches of the same color about the collar and girdle. Colored linen too Is used upon white serge, dull blue, bright brown, rose or green linen forming collar, cuffs and perhaps trimming bhnds. One good model In white serge had linen trimming In dull blue, and upon tblg blue linen were narrow bnndg of white linen set with linen of little black buttons. Collars and cuffs of white linen hemstitched In bright color are pret ty upon a simple, one-piece white serge frock, and a cravat and leath er belt may repeat the bright color of the hemstitching. The striped, serges require even less trimming | than the all white, trimming effect* New Fircless Cooker.

WHAT BECAME OF COLQUITT’S Rumors of Lynching De nied on Yesterday OFFICERS, HOWEVER, ARB NOT ABLE TO ACCOUNT FOll HIS ESCAPE AND THE CHASE IS abandoned. Death to the Flic*. “Many different kinds of fly-trap* are used in different parts of tho world. In Western Australia it declared that flies may be effectual ly destroyed by putting a half spoon ful of black pepper in powder on teaspoonful of brown sugar and ono teaspoonful of cream. Mix all to gether and place In a room yrhero files ar© trnblesome and it is sal a they will soon disappear. “Dr. Paul Freer of Manila tell* the writer that In Japanese hospi tals they take a whole potato and stick it full of toothpicks, put fly paste on the toothpicks, and hang the potatoes from the celling over- the patient’s bed on cord. The flies all gather on the potato. When It i* full they throw the potato away and make a new trap.” Fly Poisons. A ten-per cent solution of ordi nary formaldehyde (ask your drug gist) In a shallow dish of water sweetened with sugar will attrack and kill many flies. Dr. Hodge, speaking of thi* method, this year, advised using a teaspoonful of formalin to a teacup of water. As this formalin solution Is non- poisonoim to man, It may bo used readily, even about food. Tho files will not object to the presence of the poison in the sweetened water, and, eagerly drinking, will die close to tho dlPh where they may be be swept Tho fly committee of the Mer chants’ Association of New York es pecially recommends the use of this solution. • Where It l B used, there should be no other liquids In the room for flies to drink.

The whereabouts or the fate of Will UcOrlff, tho negro who was the principal In the terrible .hoot ing affair near Deorun \ -eeday mornls<W» ^{ixouded In deep mys tery. All eorts of rumors are rife, but none of them seen capable of verification. It haa been reported time and again that McGrlff has been captured and lynched. A. fast as then report, are denied they bob up‘.gain. Deputy Sheriff Frank Rohberg returned to the city last night from the neighborhood of the killing, where hi haa been since the morn ing of the tragedy. He was In the thick of all of the excitement and woe himself at the head of a posse. Rehberg positively and emphatical ly dentes any knowledge of a lynch ing or of any knowledge of the ne gro’s whereabouts. He say. the nearest approach to a lynching oc curred at tho home of McOrlff’s parents. The searchers had been trying to locate the fugitive. Mc- Oriff’a father denied having seen him since the crime and later finder pressure admitted that his ipurderer son had visited the home the night after the killing. It was with difficulty that Rehberg pre vented the crowd from doing the old man violence because of the de ception. Rehberg Insists that to far as bis knowledge goes McOrlff’s brotfie’r Is the only negro who has been taken and that no harm was done. On tho other hand prominent cit izens of Deorun and Bridgeboro ex press It as their private belief that McGrlff Is dead. They point to the significant fact that all excitement has died' down and that no ono In the Immediate neighborhood of the tragedy seems Interested any more even Inclined to talk. One rumor has Is that after tho ofllcors were out of the way McOrlff was caught and literally .hot and cut to pieces. While all !g' mystery these persistent rumors lend thinking people to believe that there Is some thing back of It all.
