Mrs. I.ila Meade Valentine, presi- dent of the Equal Suffrage League of Virginia, has directed a letter to each member of the next General Assem bly urging the passage of the joint resolution providing for the sumis- sion of a constitional amendment to the voters of the State, granting women the right of suffrage. The letter says that such an amend ment will be introduced at the coming session, that the rapid progress of the movement deserves their consid eration, and that in view of the in creasing pressure for a national amendment the women of the Slate must receive their enfranchisement by federal, if not by State, action. “We therefore, appealed to the legislature of 1912,” concludes the letter, “and again to the legislature of 1914, to set in motion the legisla tive processes for giving the right of suffrage to the duly qualified women of Virginia. Will you not aid us in the passage of the joint resolution?” OPEN GUN The opening gun of the fight which tho department stores, the chain stores and the mail order houses will make against the proposed changes in merchandising in the United States, by the Fair Trade League, and which have as their principal object the pre servation of the small dealers, fired by E. W. Dloomingdale, counsel for the New York Retail Dry Goods Association, Sunday, several of the metropolitan daily papers published his article. His attack on the American Fair Trade League assumes to answer the contention that the cutting of prices is unfair to the manufactures, unjust to other retailers, and that it is an injury to the consumer . . . 4 . . If all Mr. Bloomingdale’s conclusions are reached by the same process of rea soning and are based on the same absurd method of calculation a: used in this particular example, bis statements are unworthy of serious consideration Mr. Blooming dale keeps away from the question of 4>riee cutting being unfair to other dealers, which includes the small deal ers, and dismisses the contention that the public is inveigled into the large store which offers standard articles at cut prices as bait and thea soil goods of unknown valdo .to the. consumer-- The Tobacco Leaf.

CAd*.) , IN THE REALM OF FASHION By MAUDE HALL New York, January 9.—Dame Fash ion is busying herself at present -with new colors, for some of the latest ma terials are so exquisite that it is nec- enaary to glorify them with iiign- sounding names to give them the aris- tocratic^tone of which their creators intend they should boast. The yellows are going to he very popular again, and the more vivid tones are to replace the delicate ef fects. D’or is one of the newest tones. Argent is not new, but'among the metal gauzes it appears in combina tion with a delicate blue tint and is called silver twilight. Several of the novelties have atmospheric" names; then fashion runs to the other extreme and borrow terms from thf metal and animil kingdom for the cloths, close ly-woven silks, etc. _ I T ? While she is awaiting thefc declara tion of spring styles, the woman who cannot afford to indulge, jtj passing fashions would do well to pay atten tion to the details. Following are some falhionable ideas worth remembering: The butterfly is still dominant Scotch plaids are fashionable for children. j Hats for little girls arc of bonnet shape. Leopard is the favorite fur for tho motor wrap. There is a revival of ostrich feather .rimming. a Flowers for the hair ana corsage are made of ribbon. New handbags are made of silk em broidered with beads. The high school girl is wearing the tarn o' shanter hat. The chrysanthemum is the favored flower for corsage wear. Modified Norfolk suits are being worn by the older school girls. Ribbons brocaded with velvet this tles are among the novelties. AH the winter wraps show the up ward movement in the draping. Metal woven tissues continue to at tract attention for evening wear. Underwear ,is daintier than ever. Never was there so much silk worn. A few now sweaters of shelton or angora have collars and cuffs of furs. New colors are russet brown, bronze gray, foster green and mahogany. Over blouses of chiffon vest* of ecru lace bordered with narrow bands of fur, are worn. Children’s coats are fur trimmed, with collars made to turn up and keep small ears warm. The most elegantly-dressed women prefer sealskin, baby lamb, or mole skin for coats. MOTHER! THE CHILD IS COSTIVE, BILIOUS Don’i heniiaie!
