ALuxury of the Bath.

A bath bag is a little toilet article that almost
everybody finds pleasant to use. 1t is quite
easy to make one by taking the upper part of
fine white or unbeached stocking and filling it
with equal parts OF barley and bran. Throw it
into the bath and allow it to remain until the
water feels soft and smooth to the touch. 1t
has a fine effect upon the skin.

open large frst-class hotel. The doc
tor attempted the same thing In Fairha-

quite a number Of creditors, who will
watch his new venture at Blaine with an
interest born of desire. At the time the
Prosser house was opened there was only
one other hotel in Fairhaven, and the
new hotel was crowded with guests. The
rates were high. the accommodations and
table were not Of the best, but for some
reason the proprietor did not pay his out

THE EXTRA SESSION

Governor Ferry has published letter
Ia the members of the legislature asking
their opinion as 10 what date will be the
most convenient time for holding the ex-
ira session for the passage OF the appor-
tionment law. The governors letter
closes with the following remark; you
are undoubtedly aware that the power OF
the legislature to enact laws when con-
vened In extraordinary session, will be
general, and will not be limited by the
purposes stated in the proclamation Of the
governor" To which the Tacoma Ledger
adds: while the power OF the extra ses-
sion, which the governor has already de-
cided 10 convene, will undoubtedly not bt
limited by the purposes stated in the pro-
clamation converting IL, there is no gooc
reason why IL should take up genera
legislation. The next regular session vii
convene on the seventh day of next Jan
uary, soon enough to attend To genera
legislation. For this reason we trust tina
the extra session will be postponed so lon
that il will of necessity be limited In time
aud thus be compelled TO pass an appor
tionment bill and adjourn"
