DURING the last session of congress
$37 900 was appropriated with which
to pay employees of the bureau of en-
craving and printing and to meet incl
dental expenses during the present fiscal
year. 1t has just been discovered that
the engrossed bill signed by the presi-
dent only carried the sum of $37. The
clerical error cannot be recti6ed until
congress- again convenes.

THE Great Northern road hasless than
half the capitalization OF the Northern

would make the Great Northern satisfac-

HARRY HAWKINS, who was discovered
in time to get him upon the democratic
ticker last fall, is full hedged and ag-
gressive candidate for governor of Alas

very hard. THERE'S no man in the north
west who has held so many Offices at

probable that he will be content with
the single federal office of governor.
There must be more applications on his

There will be an Ohio monument on the

other Ohio monument on its immediate
left. These Ohio troops belonged to the
brigade in which the Second Minnesota
fought. In the same Way there will be
an Ohio monument close to the position
near the WIZARD house where the Second
Minnesota battery did such excellent
service. In the same way there will
eventually lie Ohio monuments of these
regiments which served with the Second

at the point of Missionary ridge, which
the Second carried with them. These
positions ofthe Second infantry and that
OF the Second battery, are among the

why Picnics are So Called.

Everybody knows what picnic is, but most
folks would find it hard to say how it got that
name, and yet it is simple enough hwhen you come
to learn it. When picnic was being arranged
for, the custom originally was that those who
intended to be present should supply the eat
ables and drinkables. A list of those necessities
having been drawn up, it was passed around,
and each person picked out the article of food
or drink that he or she was willing to furnish,
and the name Of the article was nicked, or
licked off the list. The open air entertain.
ment thus became known as pick and nick"
The custom is said to have dated from 1902, so
that the picnic is wholly an institution of the
18th century.

Real lace is priced most highly. A bit of it
brightens up plain gown wonderfully, and
gives it dignity that nothing else can. But,
like blue china, it must be lived up to. 1t is
an old-fashioned art to care for fine laces beau
tifully. With the immense amount of machine
made lace that is sold now, real lace is treated
more carlessly, and it is only the dainty elderly
ladies who know best how to keep and wear it.
Lace seems to be one OF the prerogatives of older
women, anyhow. There are some mothers who
never allow their daughters to wear lace until
their wedding day comes. There are so many
pretty substitutes for it that these girls have
not seemed to lack anything in their costume
But this is rather strict ruling, and one not
easily followed. There is. however, a predju-
dice against young girls wearing anything but
the simplest of thread or machine made laces.
Yalenciennes, in its simpler patterns, is the
most adaptable of all laces, either in the real
thread or in the pretty limitations. Even
babies can wear little edging of this with a
simple pattern, dot or leaf in each scallop.
The heavy Irish point or gupure laces in cream
or white are pretty for trimming wool or
gingham gowns The Oriental laces are
usually too thick and cottony-looking, but
with fine flat pattern and daintily -fowered
edge are really lovely. Torchon lace is always
pretty and wears well. In the narrow pieces
it makes the daintiest of ruffie edging, though
it is most frequently used for trimming under
wear, where it is most liked because it is SO
long-lived.
