How Colombia's Rubber , . . Been Wasted. Has Tho plant of tho People's Hard Rub ber will not bo In operation as early OS was expected. There has been a delay In securing building material and tho work has been retarded. At the company's office It was stated that It was not known Just when the fac tory could bo put In operation. Messrs. Haber, Stein and others In terested In the new rubber factory for Bast Akron, have lately held a con ference with Architect F. O. Weary, regarding plans for tho plant These are now being prepared. The capacity of tho shop will bo about half that pf tho Buckoye Rubber Co., It Is said, ffhe new company plans to begin on a somewhat smaller scalo than certain reports have stated, but plans to grow and will no doubt do so. .That tho rubber sesources of Col ombia havo been wasted by natives cutting down trees for rubber Instead of tapping them, there seems to bo no doubt Tho India Rubber World Bays: Tho rapid decline In the Coloml Ibtan production of rubber gave no concern to consumers, for tho rea son that discoveries of rubber wero being made elsewhere at a rate which gavo a steady Impetus to tho world's total production. Now Holds havo been opened constantly elsewhere In South America, and tho enormous out put' from Africa has occurred almost .Wholly slnco tho palmy days of rub ber collection in Colombia. But tho situation in Colombia Is referred .to here as affording an object lesson which, ultimately, must bo con sidered seriously throughbut the rub' ber world. Tho caucheros of Colombia had no sooner devastated the richer and more accessible rubber districts pf that country, than they descended to Ecuador, and, following tho prin cipal streams, repeated their work of destruction In that country. Thence they entered Peru, Bolivia and eastorn Brazil everywhere, without molesta tion, carrying on tho work of extin guishing the rubber tree. Eleven years ago tho United States consul at Para, Major Kerbey, re ported to his government: Tho Peruvian rubber or caucho forest are already fast disappearing, and tho nearest are now far away. Tho practlco of felling tho tree to collect tho rubber has destroyed all the trees' near the rivers, except far up ou tile Ucayall and Javary rivers. It is affirmed that extensive tracts of forests havo not yet been touched, but that they are difficult of access on account of tho distance from tho rivers and the lack of roads It Is perfectly safe to assert that In tho near future all tho available caucho forests of Peru will havo disappeared unless other methods aro speedily adopted.

Tho assertion by Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, mistress of tho Whito Hoifso, that $300 a year Is sufficient for a woman to jiress well In socloty, Is a predominant topic of discussion among Netv York women of fashion. Mrs. Roosevelt's plan was, briefly, to wear block and white almost ex clusively for evening and street wear. Every gown was selected so that it would wear' with slight repairing for thrco seasons. Theso gowns wero of the richest and heaviest silk. When they would no longer permit of re modeling they were made into waists. Only in house gowns or deml-tollets did she select bright colors. Hero are tho views of three pro minent society women on the subject: Emerson says: "As the fluto is heard farther than the cart, see how suroly a beautiful form strikes the fancy of men and Is copied and ro- :X"X"XX"Xx'X'o v Mr"$A :i i0$$$$"&W'3$Ofl$,M,$0,!$ produced without ond. ,,How many copies aro there of Belvedere, Appollo, Venus, Psyche, tho Warwick Vase, Parthenon and fche Temple of Vesta? Beauty is a quality which makes to endure." , This thought occurs with the sug gestion that a woman can dress well on $300 a year. Having a beautiful form and nn expressive countenance, clothing will look well on one woman where it would not on another, and If moro money wore spent in obtaining new Ideas, for tho mind than In now clothes for the outside ndornmont, Just as .many people would be employed, teachers, printers of books and others and makers of beautiful household furniture, (as with beauty of mind, ono would want the envlorumonts to be lovely,) as there now ore In tho manufacture of dress goods. Mrs. Roosevelt says sho never has spent moro than $300 a year and uses the previous years' govns. It is quito posslblo she can always look as woll as any lady where she would visit, al though sho would havo to appear in tho same gown on many occasions. As' everyone knows, Mrs. Edwin Gould can afford moro, yet,, when sho had a becoming green velvet gowu, bub wore It nearly everywhere one winter. As Mrs. Roosdvelt says, she can get tho best artists and best materials and have three nleo dresses for $300; a tailor-made effect for $50, on even ing gown for $150, $75 for a gown which could bo used on all occasions In tho house, and $25 for remodelling tho former attire with' tho uowest trifles. The finest materials can bo often re made, as many are proud now to bring forward old materials that their grand mothers wore, and' Mrs,. Roosevelt says that her dress for tho New Year's reception will be trimmed with lace which Is an heirloom. However, she is greatly to bo praised that she has tho courage to bravely tell the women of Amorlca that they spend to much time and thought on outward adornment, and not sufficient MARRIED 54 Wedding Anniversary Kempel 4 During tho past four years the an- nlversary of thq raarriag6 of Mr, and Mrs. Adam Kempel, of COS 8, Broad way, has been annually celebrated by their children.

Can a woman maintain her social position and dress on $300 a year? In Hoboken, perhaps; but not In Now York.

Three hundred dollars will not go far In woman's dress, nor should It be allowed to do so with tho v1man of means. Fashlonablo dressing Is tho life of trade, inasmuch as competi tion Is tho backbone of fashion. , Our best women In fashionable soi clety rejoice in tho fact that their costly dressing gives remunerative employment to thousands of bread winners. In no better way can women help wage-earners. When Queen Victoria went Into re tirement, and withdrew her patronage from the people whom sho had sup' ported and mado comfortable through her magnificent dressing, there was a great outcry from the' Industrial world. Factories wero closed, shops ruined and many homes were broken up. A petition was circulated Imploring ,the Prince of Wales to reign if the Queen did not resume her social functions. The result was thai tho Queen' re- sumed her drawing rooms and court dressing, and trada was soon stlrau- YEARS AGO. of Mr. and Mrs. Adam Celebrated. golden wedding anniversary, their son, Hon. Chas.

At the Wfcldorf in tho morning near ly all the Indies are seen in short skirts. Tho practicability of women nowadays would make it posslblo for them to dress well on that sum of money.
