THE CLAYTON TRIBUNE, O
N, GEORGIA.
The "A” In A. Mitchell Palmer
stands for Alexander. It you should
happen to wander through the quiet
town of Stroudsburg, Pa., you will see
a little two-story frame structure near
the main street and on the door lead
ing to the second floor you will notice
a very small sign reading, “A. Mitchell
Palmer, Lawyer.” There are a lot of
people In Pennsylvania who think Mr.
Palmer Is one of the brightest men
that state has turned out. He i3 a
member of congress.
President Wilson offered the secre
tary of war to him. but Mr. Palmer
declined because he is a Quaker and,
as such, opposed to war. s He would
like to have had the attorney general
ship.
There is no doubt that Mr. Palmer
was somewhat chagrined at not being
made attorney general, but that has
all worn off, and the president today
has no mcjre ardent admirer.
Knowing of the high regard in which
the president holds Mr. Palmer, many politicians have sought the Pennsyl
vanian's aid in seeking office.
The young man who complains of a
lack of opportunities theBe days should
look into the career of John Purroy
Mitchell. At thirty-four he is mayor
of the greatest city in the nation. And
the girl who thinks the opportunities
are fewer should look up Mrs. John
Purroy Mjtchel. At twenty-four she
is the wife of the mayor of the great
est city in tho nation.
Surely, there iBn’t anything in their
mutual triumph to prove that opportu
nities are any scarcer than they used
to be. When a young man travels the
road from obscurity to tho mayoralty
of the greatest city in six years the
distance through the governorship to
the presidency is comparatively short.
The career of Theodore Roosevelt il
lustrates that, and John Purroy Mich
el has Just as good a start as Theodore
Roosevelt had.
Soon after John Purroy Mitchel was
graduated from Columbia Law school,
at twenty-one, he became the junior
member of the law firm of Mullan, Cobb & Mitchel, ahd New York never
heard of him until April 22, 1907, when he was appointed commissioner of
accounts because a lawyer was needed on the job.’
LANDIS FOR GOOD HAIR TONIC
The sunlight which streamed in
Judge Landis’ Chicago court the oth
er day fell upon the shiny, hairless
heads of Assistant United States At
torney Harry Parkin and* Attorney
Francis J. Houlihan. Judge Landis
frowned as the wheels of Justice Jog
ged onward sluggishly.
Finally there came a rift in the mel
ancholy court Ivan Wide, 507 North
Center avenue, had Just pleaded guilty
to a charge of sending prohibited
dougs through the mails.
"I’m not making those drugs any
more, judge,” he pleaded. “I’m mak
ing hair tonic now.”
A gleam of interest flickered into
the court’s eyes. He looked sharply
at the two lawyers and the smooth
domes upon which the sun fell so lov
ingly.
"Will it grow hair?" he asked Wide.
"Sometimes," faltered the defend
ant, "but in extreme cases—”
Both Mr. Parkin and Mr. Houlihan
realized what was coming and tried to cover their heads with their hands.
"I was about to appoint a committee of two to make a test of it," Bald
the Judge, “but if you aren’t sure I won’t.”
Both the attorneys sighed with relief, while the dignity of the United
States district court was broken for a moment by a modulated titter of
laughter.
"Francis B. Sayre, Adventurer,"
might Well be the title of a stirring
novel of the out-of-doors describing
tho two thrilling summers which the
husband of the president’s daughter
Jessie spent on the Labrador coast
helping Dr. Wilfred T. Grenfell in his
wonderful work of assisting the for
lorn fishermen of that bleak and ice
bound region.
The president’s son-in-law is one of
those young college graduates of grit
and stamina who have been honored
by being allowed to act as assistants
to the famous English missionary-
physician. Another member of the
band of stern and tried young men
who form the Grenfell alumni is Dr.
Scoville Clark, once a Yale wrestler,
who officiated as one of the ushers
at Mr. Sayre’s wedding at the White
House in Washington.
A study of Mr. Sayre shows in him
more the characteristics of Theodore
Roosevelt than of Woodrow Wilson.
He combines the intense Interest in the affairs of the human race with a love
of the wilds which marked Mr. Taft’s predecessor. But to get him to talks of
his hairbreadth escapes—that is altogether a different matter.
IN FURS AND VELVETS
8EA80N’8 LONG COATS REACH
EXTREME IN LUXURY.
One of the Best Models Fashioned of
Ermlne/and White Silver Brocade
—Prices May Be as High as
One Likes.
.Of the long fur coats for evening
wear we have had much to say be
fore, but each day brings out new
models in fur and fur combined with
velvet or rich brecade or plain satin
or cloth.
Some of the coatB have a deep yoke
or enormous collar and cuffs of fur
and a very deep band on the coat
bottom, rounding up in the front and
narrowing until it meets the collar, the
central part of the coat being of vel
vet, satin or cloth.
One superb model in fur and bro
cade is fashioned of ermine and white
silver brocade, the fur forming the
deep yoke and peasant sleeveB, while
the brocade runs up and forms the en
tire lower part of the coat, and the big
soft revere and cuffs which are turned
back against the sleeves.
Whole coats of ermine are many.
Sometimes the pure white ermine is
trimmed in the black and white tails
or perhaps the black and white ermine
is trimmed in black fur, finest brelt-
schwang, silky caracul’or black fox.
These fur coat^z are amiSe. luxurious,
long or thre^quarter’; the right cross

tom to ^ive the approved narrow sil
houette. Of gorgeous sea), breit-
Bchwang, taupe and sable coats there
i3 no end; but these are not primarily
evening coats as are the ermine gar
ments and some of those of chinchilla.
When it comes to fur-trimmed eve
ning coats, one hardly knows where
to take up the tale. There are models
in all grades of elegance and at prices
ranging from $40 up to a lofty point
among the three figure prices. All de
pends upon the value of the materials
used and the value of the name at
tached to the model. A famous de
signer charges well for his name and
his ideas and when these expensive
items are added to the cost of velvet,
satin or cloth and fine'fur, one has a

NOTHING TO DO AFTER THAT
Clever Answer Left Horse Show At
tendant "Up in the Air,” So
to Speak.
It was at the New York Horse show,
and an attendant approached the box
of a vivacious young woman whoso
dog had been exercising his vocal tal
ents so vigorously that the official an
nouncements could not be heard.
"Pardon me, ma’am,” he said, “but
you’ll either have to keep your dog
quiet or take him out.”
“My dog!” she exclaimed with an
air of surprise, as she deftly kept him
out of sight behind her chair; "you
must be mistaken. My dog has been
creating no disturbance.”
"Pardon me, ma’am,” the attendant
persisted; “but I heard something
bark. If It wasn't your dog, what
was It?”
The young woman favored him with
a Bweet smile.
“Oh, she said, “you must have
heard the tan-bark.”

Model Would Make Up Handsomely
in Either of Materials to Be
Chosen.
This model is of cloth, or satin, or
namented on each side of the front
with fancy stitch
ing, and cut with
long shoulders, to
which the sleeves
are attached. Tho
vest, with fancy
collar, and the
cuffs are of white-
satin, the collar
finished with
turnovers of the
material.
The fronts are
laced at the top with a cravat of
black liberty, which is knotted and
.finished with tassels. The tucked
chemisette is of white tulle or muslin,
the collar finished at the top with
lace.
Kerwple to Embroider.
How many mothers who have
laughed with their children over the
antics of the Kewpies know that these
delightful creatures come stamped to
embroider? They adorn pillow tops,
chiffonier scarfs and table covers, and
the child’s nursery or bedroom, and
they have lost none of their selfish
ness by being transferred to heavy
linen.
They are colored, of course, and are
to be done in outline stitch, with
coarse rope silk-work which goes
pleasantly fast. Kewpie rhymes are
painted below, describing the pictured
action.
The alluring Drayton children come
in this form also, and are quite as
pretty as the Kewpies. But perhaps
the cleverest of all is the sweet little
September Morn child, standing up to
her chubby knees in water, with the
verse beneath.
"Oh, please don't think me bad ov
bold,
But where It’s deep, it's awful cold.”
Pocket Needle Case.
Teach the little maid to carry a
Beedle case of the pocket-sized sort
in her school kit. If she has always
at hand the means of repairing a rip
or a rent in her clothes she will
gradually acquire the almost obso
lete art of neat mending and it will
become Ingrained with her never to
wear a ragged garment. The “pock
et” needle case that is most easily
carried is the cartridge-shaped affair
in steel which unscrews to reveal a
silver-plated thimble surmounting a
reel wound with white, blue and
brown threads, and a hollow recep
tacle for needles. But all the neces
sities for clothes repairing may be
contained in a tiny leather-covered
book having flannel leaves for bolding
needles and pockets for holding short
ened toothpicks wound with threads.
Cleaning Embriodery.
To clean “white embroidery without
washing, sprinkle it thickly with pow
dered chalk- and roll up for a few days.
The chalk may easily be shaken out
and the embroidery will be clean and
will not have tost its new appearance.
