ORIGIN OF WORD "ROORBACK"
Name Given to First Notable Cam--I
palgn Lie, of Which James K.
Polk WaWs the Victim.
Iu 38-M James K. Polk was nomi
nated by the Democrats for president.
After the nomination the Albany Jour
nal published what purported to he
on extract from ltoorback's Journal,
of a trip through the South, repre
sented to have been made some few'
years before, In which he told of see
ing (a gang of colored men being driv
en to the southern market, all branded
"J. K. P.," as the property of James K.
Polk. The object was to stigmatize
Polk as a heartless slave owner. The
publication was resented by the Demo
crats as n forgery and a libel on their
Candidate, and so It proved to be, for
It turned out that there was no such
person ns Iloorbnck and that the pre
tended letter was written by a -disreputable
politician of New York who
posed as an abolitionist. The incident
caused much hard feeling and the
word roorback became a synonym for
n campaign He.

Now Yonr. Since the days of the
Roosevelt administration In Washing
ton depressing statements have comu
from the social center nnent tho cost
of being well dressed. Depressing for
tho reason that they were so uppall
ingly low. Nothing so produces dis
couragement In humans, writes a fash
ion nuthority, ns to bo told that they
should and can accomplish u desired
result on a sum of money that they
consider plniost too small for the pre
liminaries. You aa a womuu know that full well.
What would reduce you to greater rage
or a feeling of utter hopelessness than
to bo told by tho head of the family
of tho amazing achievements of an
other woman in regard to money, to
Clothes, and to food?
You havo dono your best with your
allowance, of that you are sure. Such
is the feeling that surges In every
woman's mind nud heart when Wash
ington informs us, Infrequently, whnt
can bo dono In our own chosen line of
work nt a slight expenditure of money.
Now, when Washington through
tho bureau of labor statistics, not
through tho White House gives as
tho averngo cost of being well dressed
the following figures, ono feels llko
giving up the whole problem of how to
look well on little. Tho total yearly
allownnco for dress of theso women
who mako u smart appearance (the
phraso belongs with the statistics) is
$125 a year. Can you do it?
Here Are tho Figures.
Outsldo clothing (suits, coats, sweat
ers, dressS, waists, dress skirts),
$57.58; hats, 511.59; shoes, $14.20;
gloves, $3.82 ; stockings, $5.53 ; corsets,
$3.41; undenvear, $7.18, and miscel
laneous, $14.27.
"As regards external clothing, It
would appear that tho nverago wnge-
earnlng woman who is well dressed
usually chooses these items of her
wardrobe from tho following priced
articles: Suit or coat (altcrnnte years),
$25 to $30 ; shirtwaists, $0 to $15 ; one
piece dress, $15 ; wool skirt, $5 to $10 ;
summer skirts, $3 to $5; party dress
(worn fop two years), $25.

Haskins Bros. &. Co., Sioux City, low
I and told by all first clan dealerw
and furthermore, ns Idlers are rnra
these days, the budget may be taken
as Intended for tho nvernge woman.
No one includes the millionaire tn any
form of appeal, lufo.inutlon, or ndviee
to women ou the matter of clothes.
That Uncorteted Figure.
Figures belong to the Individual, but
fashions to the multitude ; therefore it
is easier to be dictatorial about tho
latter than the former. Tho law Is
better established; the mathematical
average has no part. Fashions are, or
they aro not. They nro launched even
if they do not succeed; und tho ex
ceeding Interest In them is ofteu
caused by the great gamble which Is
connected with them.
Tho dlrcctolre inspiration In tho un
corseted uguru is c gamble, roughly
speaking. It was launched soino
months ago, bat tho public thought It
ono of those revivals that rarely get
beyond the salons of tho extreme de
signers. Yet this Inspiration has sur
vived the months, nnd It grows In
fashion, if not in grace. Wc call It
dlrcctolre merely because that epoch
in dress exploited It, nlong with a host
of other fashions that were taken up
In the name of "classic." It started as
n reaction from tho furbelows of tho
prc-Hevolutionnry time, as worn by
Mario Antoinette. It was called tho
Greek costume, and tho historians tell
us that It came about through tho
attempt of two famous young sculptors
to cut u pattern for such a robe for a
stout and matronly "mere do famllle,"
who Insisted upon It.
The clinging effect of the skirts is
as strongly accentuated now as then,
and we, llko the women of that day,
have discarded the chemise; yet It
must bo quickly said that wo uso n
substitute. We nro not going In for
the transparent drapery without n
lining. No scandals like those of Mine.
Ilamclln's day for us I
All Skirts Must Cling.
No imposed drapery on tho skirt of
this winter is permitted to give it bulk
or bulging curves. Lines must follow
those of tho body. In so much havo
wo adopted tho classic. Therefore
soft materials are preferred. Satin,

TWO AFTERNOON FROCKS TRIMMED WITH FUR.
On the left Is one showing a short, loose tunic of terra cotta chiffon,
trimmed with skunk and embroidered In black. There is a narrow skirt
of black satin and a long chain of Jet. The large hat Is of fur. On tho
right Is a black velvet frock fastened In back and trimmed with narrow
bands of ermine. There is a sash of black and silver brocaded ribbon.
Bepiirato waists In lieu of a $15 one
piece dress, or a dress waist worn with
a suit may bo substituted for un eve
ning dress, or n winter coat may be
worn for three seasons, or an evening
dress for throe or four years. In view
of the range of choice, It uppcars that
n woman may reasonably be expected
to secure outside clothing for a good
appearance at an expenditure of from
$70 to $75.
"As regards articles of dresB other
than outside clothing, tho necessary
expenditures would ho distributed
roughly as.follows: liats, $10 to $15;
shoes, $12 to $17; gloves, $2.50 to $5;
stockings, $3 to $7; corsets, $2 to $5;
underwear, $5 to $10; and miscella
neous, approximately $10. Allowing for
Individual variation In prices and
choice, tills means an annual expendi
ture of from $50 to $00 for these ar
ticles, which as a rule havo to be re
placed each year.
"Combining these two amounts out
side clothing $70 to $75, and other
articles of dress $50 to $00 the total
yearly expenditure would range from
$120 to $135, averaging approximately,
say, $125."
True, these are wage-earning wom
en, tho story points out; but It adds
that they uro us well dressed us the
immense majority of women who havo
no more, and often not nearly as much
as tho wage-earner to spend on clothes ;
chosen more thnn other fnbrlcs for
those frocks.
Chiffon itself has taken a second or
third place, and dyed lace Is pushed
forward as a substitute. Even cream
lace is revived for cntiro frocks, but
it does not havo the prestige of gray
or brown. Both these colors are draped
aver tullo or Hutln in tho same or n
contrasting color.
The odd feature about this revival
of an old, old style of fastening 1b that
tho exclusive tailors have applied It to
coats. In that touch wo get something
novel. Juckets of peltry aro fash
loned in this manner, and thcro arc
combinations of velours and Boft fur
that aro put together llko u culrasi
blouse, In u very loose fashion, to gc
with skirts of tho cloth, but they runl
as coats nnd not blouses.
Heavy furs nro worn thut give sufll
dent protection in tho open. And thl
verdlct for peltry placed ou pcltr;
pleases the public. Somo women loo'
llko pack-mules with an overload.

An International Service Built
on Tiny Profits Per Pound
Some industries have been able to get in
step with war demands more quickly than
others.
. In many cases mighty plants have sprung
up but at a prodigious cost.
The packing industry was able to adapt
itself to unheard of demands more quickly,
perhaps, than any other industry. And this
was because the vast equipment of packing
plants, refrigerator cars, branch houses, etc.,
had been gradually developed to its present
state of efficiency, so that in the crucial hour
it became a mighty international system for
war service.
And how had this development taken place?
Not by making vast inroads into the capi
tal wealth of the country, but largely by using,
from year to year, a portion of the profits, to
provide for expansion.
Swift & Company's profits have always been so
tiny, compared with sales, that they have had practic
ally no effect on the price of meat (amounting to only
a fraction of a cent per pound).
And yet the owners of the business have been
content with reasonable returns on their capital, and
have been able, year after year, to put part of the
profits back into the business to provide for its
expansion.
Theso fractions of tiny profits have been repaid to
to the public many fold in the form of better service,
and better and cheaper meat, and made it possible for
Swift & Company to meet, undaunted, the sudden
cry for meat for overseas.
Could any other method .of financing 'a vital
industry involve less hardship" to the people of the
country ? Could there be a better instance of true
"profit-sharing" than this return in added usefulness
and in national preparedness ?

Up to the Barber.
Frances was told to take her little
brother to the barber to have his hair
cut. Her father gave her a quarter,
saying: "I do not know whether it will
cost ten or fifteen cents." Thereupon
Frances skipped off to the barber.
"How do you want little Jack'shnlr
cut?" asked tho barber.
"Well you can tnke off ton or fif
teen cents' worth," she smilingly remarked.
